Konjiki no Moji Tsukai

This is a room in the castle of the Demon King in [Demon Country/Heros].

There, the two girls were face-to-face about the content of the story they had recently heard in the castle.

The story is that [Beast Kingdom/Passion] was attacked and that [Victorias] was taken over by the previous Demon King.

Especially with regard to the thief who withered the symbol of [Passion], "The Tree of Beginnings Aragorn", the two had a difficult face on each side.

One is one of four summoned as a brave man to this world called [Idea], all by the name of Ben Juli.

The standing behavior is elegant and the girl was called Yamato in school.

And the other, called Shinobu Akamori, is also a summoned brave man. A girl who speaks Kansai valves with a character and a nostalgic face like a chunk of curiosity.

"Really...?

That usually bright look on her face is now cloudy.

They learned that their thoughts were sweet when they attacked this [Demon Nation/Heros] and were to have a direct taste of the horrors of war.

At that time, he separated himself from the other brave men, Daiji and Chika, but the two admitted their mistakes and appeared themselves at the Demon King's Castle.

So Yveam the Demon King did nothing to take their readiness and take their lives. However, he could not be left behind and was subjected to house arrest.

That said, if you're in the castle, you'll be watched but you can move quite a bit, and the two of you aren't feeling so hard because your clothing and accommodation are guaranteed. I can only thank you for the overly generous treatment.

"Really... don't be so ambitious..."

The reason I'm darkening their faces, it was the presence of a grand ambition. We were both honestly pleased with the news that we were safe.

But from what I heard, the great aspiration somehow withered the "Beginning Tree Aragorn", a symbol of [Beast Kingdom/Passion] and cherished by the beasts.

Zhu Li and the others told Shublers, who told me the story, that he was not the kind of person whose ambition would do such a thing, but he was given information and judged by the other two to be the same look as the ambition.

But they're still talking to each other face-to-face, wondering if it's some kind of mistake.

"But... from the look on your face I heard you said you were Oshi-san..."

"Mm-hmm... and the people who witnessed it said they were listening... one of the thieves is calling one of his buddies a brave man..."

"... Yes"

That was the best basis. Brave man, that's only four people in this world, and only two people who are men and are called brave knew.

"What do you mean? Even if it's true, why not...?

"I don't know. But at that time, it means there were no girls. Which means Chika wasn't around, was she?

"Oh no. Besides, if that's what you really want to do, you might not believe it... but now it seems that Daichi belongs to the former Demon King."

Two people have also heard that the like-minded figure of the Great Will is a beast named Kokroo. And I had also heard that the cockroach was one of the predecessors of the demon king Avoros.

"... is Chika safe?

"... I don't know"

"Oshi-san... why aren't you with Chika? Has it become a separation? Why are you doing that... I don't know why"

Zhu Li mouths a question overflowing with his sad eyes down, but Shibu was doing his hand to his chin and thinking about it. And that mouth moves out slowly.

"Reason............... hey Julichi, did you hear about the character of the previous demon king?

"Huh? Oh, yes. Very cruel and despicable..."

"Did Julichi just say that? With Chika, oh, my God."

"Yes."

I said, "Well, if you don't want to do something big, you're gonna end up in a situation. Why don't you?

"... what do you mean?

Shinobu puts his index finger up and jizzes Zhu Li and his eyes together.

"I mean, I've been forced to do it all along."

Zhu Li's eyes are opened as he realizes haha in those words.

"Also, is it possible... that Chika is being held hostage?

"That's likely all the time. I can't believe you broke that thing that people care about for no reason."

"Oh, right......"

Shabu asks, wondering about Juli's shady expression.

"Doesn't it?

"Yes, no..."

……

Seeing Zhu Li, who looks reluctant to say, Shabu tilts his neck.

"I have something to say. If you do, say it."

"... Yes. That...... just because you're holding Chika hostage, why are you doing that?

You were shocked by what Zhu Li said. Shabu was stiffening with his mouth open with pocan.

".................. erm Juli Chi? And I don't have a choice? If a hostage takes you, don't listen to me."

"Is it?

"... what are you talking about?

"Then why doesn't Mr. Dae-shi try to leave us something?

"... to?

"No matter how many Chika had been taken hostage, you could have left some clue. You could have, for example, given someone a piece of paper written in Japanese, or even managed to move to find us and get us to work together!

Even Nobu, who is inherently a rapper, was overwhelmed by the power of Zhu Li curling up quickly.

"Zhu Li Chi............ Ke, but even that might be a situation"

"According to what I've heard, Oshi-san has been acting alone for a while. I think that's about it!

"... are you angry, Julichi?

"I'm angry! Naturally! This is what happened to Dashi anyway because of him, so he should be deciding that he will do something about it! Why aren't you trying to rely on us!

"... juli chi..."

"Decide alone, and as a result, destroy what is dear to the Beasts, and now [Victorias] take over! How can that guy make all the mistakes!

Julie closes her eyes strongly and releases words with the feeling of spitting out everything stuck in her chest. Touching such an emotional part of her, I'm stunned and just staring at her.

"How can you be alone... we're buddies... eh"

Then tears flow from Juli's eyes. I was losing my words. Even the bump sighs loudly when I hear her cry.

"... let it go, Julie's right. Daiichi probably burns for Chika, and she does a hell of a thing. I am in a position to help the brave man and yet the demon king conquer the world. Oh, my God."

with a bitter smile. The shabu moved his feet toward the window,

"But we're under house arrest here, so tell me what you want."

"It's..."

"I don't know, I think Chika and I are going to do something really irrevocable. That's scary... scary"

"Mr. Shinobu..."

Zhu Li glances at his shinobu as he wipes his fingers at the tears accumulating in his eyes. Shinobu stays looking out the window. Clear, clear skies are spreading.

"If Daiichi does the wrong thing, we stop it... Shit, saving us is what we have to do?

"... Yes"

"Mr. Shubblers told me about you, Julie..."

"What is it?

We're under house arrest.

"Yes."

He said, "If you can help me, you can do whatever you want."

I heard from Shubblers, but it's not sneaky to keep the two of them locked up all the time. So if they're going to do their best for the country, I hear they're going to drop permission to go out as well.

Sure, they're brave, they've attacked this country, but basically it's no exaggeration to say they haven't done anything. The fact is that he was captured before he did anything.

Still, they haven't directly harmed the 'Demons'. It's just that there's a position problem. It's just making them set restrictions on their freedom.

So now that Yveam the Demon King is aware that they are unwilling to contend, he says it is possible to get out of here on the condition that they will do everything in their power to make the country, or the world, better.

"I've been thinking about it a long time since I heard about Daiichi, but I can't keep it that way."

"Yes."

"We're going to join the army."

"Military......? You said it didn't have to be the army, did you, Mr. Shubblers?

Then Shinobu shakes his index finger with a chitchat.

"Sweet and july. If we get into the army, if there's a fight, there's a good chance we'll be on the front line. Do it?

"Well, I guess so."

"Mr. Shublers said," The previous demon king sells fights to the world. Maybe this country will get into that fight too. "

"Yes."

"That fight, if you really want to go to the previous demon king, will you come out?

"Ah!?

Yes, if you're going to fight the former demon king Avoros faction about to wage war, you're more likely to stick your face in the army.

Maybe I can catch my ambition there and wake up and do it. Even Chika, who is so generously held hostage, could possibly find a way to save her.

It is better to belong to the army of this country, which has a big country, than to move there with two bad people, so that we can also get the latest world situation, and possibly get information on Da Ji and Chia Jia, and help them out before the war breaks out.

"So, is it something that works that well?

"Come on, man."

"What!?

Zhu Li stunned by the bump he easily denied.

"That's what you do? If the world can do what it wants, we won't even be here."

"Ah..."

Zhu Li loses his word when he is given an unmistakable honest argument.

"But I'm pretty sure that's better than just the two of us moving. Besides..."

Shinobu laughs nicely.

"We don't hate people here. It's warmer or warmer than when I was in [Victorias]..."

"... right. And the Demon King is a good man."

"Haha, really! For the king's sake, he just walked in here and gave me a tea treat."

"Talk to me, you're a normal girl,"

"Yeah, it's not like us. I fight desperately, though. We can't lose."

Shinobu hits Zhu Li with his powerful eyes, and she looks back as well.

"Let's be strong, Julie. Save us both."

"Yes!"

The bond between the two deepened even further.

But they don't know yet.

When they and their comrades reunite, taste the despair dominated by grief and bitterness….

"What life force is, it's HP on the Status, and it's easy to say or… the power of the flesh itself"

Nikko and Camus were quietly listening to Larasyk, who was lecturing us on vitality in front of us.

Thanks to the bribe the sake and knob prepared by Nippon Color, we can now listen to life force control.

She also seems satisfied with the substitutes she has obtained and explains them in a good mood.

"It's no exaggeration to say that people are made up of two forces in the first place. One is mental power, in other words magic. And the other is vitality, well, strength."

Larasyk is moving his mouth with his index finger up as he moves left and right with the cutlet.

"Physical strength is officially called physical strength, and mental and physical strength, two of which are the powers of a person. How about this far?

The sun colour nods quietly at her inquiry.

"Mm-hmm. In order to control vitality - that is, physical strength, you need to know the physical strength that is in you first"

"... Know?

"Yes, it means knowledge is important to everything. Hiiro, say what you know about your physical strength."

If you ask me that. I do always take care because magic is always used magically, and I have trained to learn and handle magic, but for the first time I realize that I do not have much knowledge of physical strength.

It is the same with health and magic that naturally rises if the level rises, but almost none of us ever turned consciousness toward health, even if it was directed toward magic.

Then Larasyk laughs niggardly as he foresaw such an idea.

"You don't know, do you?

…………

"But I can't do it. The basic wizard cares about his magic, but he's very reluctant about his health."

Exactly. Regardless of the damage taken, I will check and recover, but I never considered my health more than necessary.

"But strength is the same power as magic, right? Doesn't it make sense to know how to use it to make it a powerful cause?

It was really a description of water in my bedear, no scales from my eyes. Surely magic is famous in this world and can be used by anyone who is human. So train magic or try to find out about magic.

But on second thought, if good use of magic makes magic, I can understand the logic that even good use of health makes it a powerful weapon.

"Beasts can't use magic even if they have magic. So I was desperate to get a weapon to use my strength, and what I got was Disguise."

…………

"But you can't use Cosmetics for anyone but the Beast. If you can still control your health, you can do a lot of things. I don't want to think of those magical idiots who turned against me."

Indeed, many of the "humans" and "demons" still believe that magic is better and better than "costume art". That's what I thought, even the sun color.

But she's right, if you have the skills to deal with magic, you have to have the skills to deal with health. Because both sides are backwards.

"Well, in the case of physical strength, unlike mental strength, it can be difficult to handle, and even if you realize it, you don't naturally look at physical strength to those who still decide that magic is better. Even if you know you can handle it."

That's all magic means is convenient and easy to handle. You don't have to bother to know the art of dealing with physical strength. It's certainly a force that no one needs.

"But Hiiro, you noticed. Pretty good, huh? Nahaha!"

It feels a lot like being looked down from the top, but the sun color is silently listening. I'm sorry I got into trouble for saying things that upset my mood here.

"Now, because the hero of the Demon Nation is about to teach a genius called the eagle, let's teach him."

Are you happy that you have been chosen? I inflate my nose and am good at chesting.

"First of all, you know where magic can come out of your body, right?

"Oh, blood, isn't it?

"Um, you're right. Blood = magic. So, what's your strength?

"... I don't know"

"Nahaha! You're an honest guy! Anold, you twisted your head so desperately, it was your brain that gave you the answer! Nahaha!"

But the sun color was heartfelt. I was just wondering if I could answer my brain the same way Anold did.

"You know what that guy over there is?

Larasyk also asks Camus, who refrains next to the sun color.

Camus also shakes his head to the side honestly full again.

"Hmm, then I'll tell you. Physical strength, it's - it's everything."

"... what?

Everything......? What does that mean?

I know what you mean by words, but it was too simple to keep up with understanding the other way around.

"What is everything...?

"Hmm? So it's everything. Everything. All flesh from head to toe."

"... I mean, you think physical strength is coming from the whole body?

"Exactly. These ears, hair, skin, bones, and guts are all sources of strength"

"I see, I understand"

Next door, Kokukoku and Kamu are also nodding.

"So first thing you need to know. What is physical strength and where does it twist from? I usually unconsciously recognize it as physical strength, but that's the first step to understanding it."

She was right, even magic. The first thing the sun color understood was what magic was.

And the way it was handled, I could use it for the first time knowing it as knowledge.

"Knowledge makes sense. Knowledge is power. It's the difference between not knowing and not knowing."

"I see, that's just how long I've lived..."

Moment after moment, something went through the sun-colored left cheek. Apparently Larasyk threw a surgical scalpel.

"That's forbidden for a woman, isn't it?

I say with a smile on my face, but a tough aura is hidden from my back. When I made her angry, I felt it was a mess and the sun color decided not to tell her about her age.

"Well, let me show you for now. If you control your strength, what can you do?"

That said, she invites the sun colors into the basement in her house. That's where she made it for research, and it's become a pretty vast space.

I've been here before and it was also a place Muir used in the exams she took on her apprenticeship application.

"First, control the magic and let the magic ball out."

That's what they say. The sun color starts to focus its consciousness with its palms flat up. Then the blue and white magic emerges like smoke from the palm of the sun, which gathers and condenses in the center of the hand.

And a brilliantly beautiful spherical blue light emerged.

"Um, not a single sway. That's a perfect sphere. That's how much magic you can handle."

Larasyk also tells Rabbit to move pico and impress.

"I've done this so many times in training. Before breakfast."

"Hmm, that's a problem."

"Hmm?"

"Can you produce something spherical like that with your physical strength or not, come on which way?

An unimaginable problem was raised. The answer is that you can't tell with clarity. But I also wondered if physical strength, which is synonymous with magic, could be the same if handled well.

"... can you do that?

So I answered thinking it was possible...... but Larasyk niggered and

"Zane, hey!

The sun color pulled my cheeks apart because I was told with a silly face that made some fools of me.

"Sure, you might have said you had the same power as magic, but it's not always the same thing you can do, is it?

"Mm... you'd be convinced if you asked me"

I'll show you what I can do.

With that said, Larasyk stands Jen royal with his hand stuck in his pocket. And when I get my right hand out of that pocket, I stand my index finger.

Bhun......

The space around your index finger begins to distort as if warmed by flames.

"Can you see that?

"Is there a distortion?

"No, I have physical strength."

"... no, the only thing I see is the feeling of the space shaking like a lilac"

"Me too..."

Camus is staring at him with a jiggly eye, but he seems to think the same thing. I somehow feel that there is some power gathered there, but even if they ask me if I can see it, I don't see anything like a magical blue and white light.

"Phew, good. I'm in trouble when they say I can see it now."

"What do you mean?

"What, look at this first"

Larasyk pushed him straight in, wondering if he had touched the ground softly with his fingertips. Fingers bury as if the ground had forgotten the existence of resistance.

The ground here is crisp and hard to say. If you hit him with all your strength, if it's the color of the day right now, you can drill a hole with no problems, and maybe you can do the same with your fingertips.

But that requires a prerequisite of including power and momentum in a fair amount. Larasyk, however, let his fingers plunge in as if sinking into the water.

When the sun color and camus are taken aback, Larasyk pulls his fingers off the ground and stares into the sun-colored eyes.

"This is the power that has kept me physically fit."

"............... maybe you used your physical strength to strengthen your fingers?

"Nahaha! You're smarter than Anold. You are. Exactly. That said, no one can condense their power to this point. If you say so now, it's like a wife."

I gobble and throat as I look at the ground with a small hole in it. The force is as sharp as a blade.

"You already know that, don't you? With physical strength, you can literally strengthen your physical abilities. For example, if you focus your physical strength on your eyes, your vision will purely improve, as will your ears and nose. Assuming you cover your entire body with physical strength, you'll gain more defense."

That's when I remembered "Tai red tangle". I was wondering if it would be beneficial for this health to gain extraordinary defense and increase Attack if "Red Qi" were involved.

No, I'm probably sure of it. It is only natural that it has the power to mix magic and strength because it is "Red Qi". Strength would be different.

"Besides, I told you earlier that you guys don't look like each other, right?

"Oh, oh."

"Naturally so too. In order to see it, it becomes necessary to treat physical strength and focus it on the eyes."

"I see, that's why you said you'd be in trouble if you didn't even train"

"Sort of, but some of them can handle it naturally."

... That's probably not about Aunous?

He didn't talk about physical strength. I mean, it's possible you don't know. Yet he can handle "Tai Red Wrap", which means he can handle his physical strength only with talent without training.

(Shit... this is why genius...)

The same goes for that explanation, but I tongued inside that genius is a lot unreasonable.

But there's one problem.

"What?"

"This is how when you treat your physical strength alone, like right now, it drains you heavily. Quite inefficient, to be clear."

"Ho."

"So the eagle did not deal with physical strength alone, but also combined magic to create a" cosmetic art ". This would have kept the drain down a bit."

"How much does it actually drain?

"I can see that if I try. Look, try it."

"Suddenly you do it..."

"Knowledge gave. All we have to do is take advantage of it."

It was certainly more helpful because it was an extraordinarily straightforward explanation than Aunous. But all of a sudden you tell me to do it...

(I have no choice. Just try it......)

The sun color closed his eyes, pulled out his whole body and became a natural.
