Log Horizon

It was the third day that the Fifty Bells had challenged "LaGranda's Company".

Daily challenges run out of three hours each time.

It's so drained that you can't stay in the dungeon.

Of course, it's not a good idea to stay in the dungeon for a long time, but it's only a matter of a short time. Make it a number of fights, and you'll only be able to do it about four to five times.

I just have to repeat my training.

Lundelhaus was forced to close that way, but he couldn't have earned enough experience in just four or five fights. Like every time, it becomes a riot or a mix-up, diminishing MP and mental power, and it retreats. It's a repeat.

Right now, the fifty bells are dressed for everyday wear, not leather armor.

Because even when you're heavily equipped until you get back to camp, you get tired.

For the top party to dive into the dungeon for about six hours every day, the fifty bells, who cut it up all morning, had nothing to do and were out of hand.

If you rest for an hour outside the dungeon, you can recover both HP and MP.

Beyond that, we could go into the dungeon again in the afternoon, and that would make it possible to earn a little more experience, which was banned by Nyata and his direct successors. I don't know why, but they say it strongly, and I just can't go against it.

The fifty bells had no choice but to kill their time by doing chores such as picking up firewood, wasting water, and taking walks.

Is it now 3: 00 pm from the angle of the sun?

The fifty bells are on their way to a pond nearby.

It is a pond of no great size, but it is limp and clear thanks to the spiral flowing in from my water, and a line of domestic water is replenished from here. I haven't tried it because I might break my stomach if I just turned it into drinking water, but it looks fine with the fifty bells.

In this mountain, of course, there is no such thing as a bath.

No one said anything, but the fifty bells take turns coming to this pond in the form of a bath.

"- Huh!! - Ha!!

From behind the woods, compressed breath leaks.

Who the hell is that?

Fifty bells gently circled in that direction.

It was Lundelhaus exercising hard in the woods. The vine-colored, feathered magician's cloak over some prestigious boarding school uniform-like costume is all over the sweat.

I don't know how much that worked, but if the black stain on the ground was sweat, I might have been training all along after the dungeon escape.

Lundelhaus, when he protrudes his left hand and creates a huge solidification of flames, rips and compresses it into a fist large fireball. Do you use considerable concentration in the process, or the sweat was stunning on the face that the spiller was supposed to be?

When you throw a fireball, quickly mark it before it hits the trees and secure it in the air. Now it creates the same solidification of ice and cold air and ejects it to counter-extinguish the flames that it should have fired itself.

The magic, converted into flames and ice, clashes in the woods trees and raises fierce steam. Lundelhaus keeps moving without stopping for a moment, avoiding that splash like hot water at times.

I guess that's a training assuming a real battle.

Fifty bells found two lines drawn under the feet of Lundell House. I didn't know what the hell that line was drawn for at first, but as I watched Lundell House move for a few minutes, I suddenly understand.

(- Dungeon's, it's a passageway)

On the soil on the ground, the two lines just drawn represent the passage of the dungeon. Lundelhaus is fighting an invisible group of skeletons coming from beyond.

Hiddenly repeated forward and backward movements, but not across the line to the left and right. I can't move, because there's a "passage wall" there.

How long would it have worked?

It looks long and I think it's probably only about five minutes. Lundelhaus exhaled loudly as he knelt on the ground. In an almost vomiting position, he desperately breathes air through his pitiful sounding throat.

"Is it okay......?

From behind the trees, the fifty bells rang hesitantly.

Because when her classmate's asthmatic child suffered the most, she remembered that she had these symptoms.

But Lundelhaus seemed heartily surprised by the voice. Standing up in an instant as if it were a spring trick, he turns to the fifty bells in an electrical act.

"Hey, Miss Fifty Bells.... What's going on here?

Lundell House scratches her forehead up refreshingly with a princely smile.

But in fact, my sweaty forehead just ends up sticking to my forehead.

"You don't have to, do you?

Fifty Bells says that to you with a laugh. But it didn't seem to get through to Lundell House. On the contrary, I rush to fix it more than a few.

"What are you forcing me to do? No, that's not true. I was just taking an afternoon stroll while the woods nymph invited me to listen to the little bird harmonies..."

That's all the dialogue makes Lundelhaus purple in the face.

(That's right. Why are you so short of oxygen, Prince? It's going to be a cyanose too...)

That's what I thought. Fifty bells, but Lundell House's princely smile won't break even if his face turns purple. I was just pathetic, I missed my gaze, and then I decided to turn my back on you too.

"Oh, yeah."

When I call my back, I hear a coarse breathing noise on my back.

It's not popular around here, in the woods of two men and two women, if it comes with the coarse breathing noise of a man, this seems like a good thing to confirm that a pervert has come out already, but from the fifty bells, Lundelhaus is in the mood for a samurai's pity.

(Um, that's it, me, weird?

Come to think of it, the levels of the Fifty Bells and Lundell House are the same. I'm not sure how old I am, but Lundelhaus looks in his early twenties, so I wouldn't call him younger than the fifties. Lundelhouse is a man, and he's not trying to be anything.

In terms of combat capability, it's overwhelming. Even if we consider that fifty bells is a support position and Lundell House is a purely offensive position, there is an opening that is not five times as powerful as that attack.

So there shouldn't be anything like fifty bells handling Lundell House as trinkets anywhere.

But on a completely different level from what I meant in terms of strength and conditions, as a fifty bell, I feel superior to Lundell House. I wasn't sure myself. I was in a psychological state.

"Miss Fifty Bells is - that. What are you doing here?

"I take a bath... Oh, yeah. Let's go too, Mr. Lundelhouse."

Why don't you? I didn't say. This is unusual, given the usual fifty bells. Feelings of reluctance towards Lundell House are completely slipping out.

"Water bath!? I have a hobby for peeking into ladies' baths. Don't lose sight of me!!

"Nobody told me to come in with you or show you."

Fifty bells do it again with their backs turned, in a laughing tone like anger. I'm in a good mood to hear Lundelhaus cough up not breathing properly yet.

"Wouldn't it be nice to let a lady walk alone in the woods -?

Fifty bells blush a little. It's kind of terribly embarrassing to call yourself a lady. Honestly, that's a big statement. But there's no reason why you can pull something out of your mouth once.

"Is that right? Yeah, it's called an escort."

Lundelhouse's voice regains power.

"Then I'll send it to you. There's a fountain, isn't there? Where is it?

Fifty bells can be swung twirly.

There, "um, show me around," Lundelhouse with a slightly flattering look. I'm wet in sweat, but that blonde hair never fades, and when I try this, it's still handsome. If I were on the real planet, it would be a route to the point where it wouldn't be bad to do it as the star of a girl comic book.

(I don't feel too much pressure on that.... I wonder if this is a different dimensional effect as well)

"Over there, Mr. Lundelhouse"

The young man calls out to the fifty bells who walk down the beast path to the pond with their little necks hanging.

"Miss Fifty Bells. I don't care if it's Rudy. That's what my parents call me."

Fifty bells heard the voice tickling.

◆

It was a compartment deep inside the "ancient court of Eternal Ice" that the Shiloes had never known before.

Behind the court, there is a lot of silence and cold air around here when it comes to summer. It hit a huge metal door, sculpted, on the verge of "cool" to "chilly" air.

"Come on, this is my twist. Come on, come on, come on."

In Li-Gun's invitation to push open the door, which named the sorcerer, he said he had housed thousands of books. In the middle of this space, with its high ceilings, which at first glance only appear to be some huge passage, there are several tables and sofas installed.

What's around is a book piled up like a small mountain.

The walls on both sides of the giant aisle are equipped with a bookshelf that is twice as long as the back length of the siloe and is saturated with its own bait called the book. So much so that the writing and scrolls are flooded and there's a small avalanche everywhere.

And the sight leads to the back until the vision sinks into darkness.

When it comes to Li-Gun, he says, "That's weird," "I wonder where he went," etc., and he spins around the table and desk. Shiloe and Akatsuki took the liberty of occupying one of the couches. To do this, I had to add some of the books that were on the couch to the mountains on the floor.

"No, I'm sorry. I think there was a pot for drinks somewhere."

"I don't mind," Shiloe said when he shook his head to the frightened Li-Gang. Then take out a few glasses and a black rose tea in a large bottle from the bag you wore.

This classic beverage has a flavour that makes the broom tea even darker, but it is less tannic and drinks with honey, sugar, etc. What Siloe carries is an ice cream type that has been cooled with fresh water and sweetened with syrup.

Shiloe poured it on herself and Li-Gang and also on Akatsuki's glass. Li-Gang can drink that tea and flatter his expression. He was a skinny little man, but somehow a strange person who made me feel adorable.

At least the apparent age looks very much the same as the siloe.

"I appreciate it. I'm totally bad at looking for things.

- That's Dazzaneg's Magic Bag, isn't it?

"Yes, I had it made before"

Siloe nods honestly at the inquiry.

"Hmm. I've done research on that bag before...... You need a purple flame crystal and a pterodactylus skin to crystallize the magic circuit."

"Right. So I got the item and got it made to order."

Siloe is impressed. This magician Li-Gun seems to have a pretty accurate idea of what the quest "Get the Magic Bag" will take when you reach level 45. It made me feel so knowledgeable that I didn't think I was a "grounder".

"Excuse me. Again. My name is Li-Gang. I named myself a magician earlier, and I can use magic, but I'm a magician, to be exact."

"Magician?

"Yeah, you're a researcher doing magic research. You can also be a general magic instructor, but one way or another, you specialize in research."

"Here?

"Yep. Have you lived in this' ancient court of Eternal Ice 'for thirty years now? This was originally my master's lab, but a dozen years ago my master took me to another world. After that, it is a research day here to succeed the master's garment bowl. I apologize for the painful outfit."

"- Miral Lake.... the wise man of Miral Lake, is it?

Shiloe remembers the name of Li-Gang and falls for that name.

Sage of Miral Lake.

That was information I had heard about in the "Elder Tail" era, some quests, city rumors, books, etc. For example, the key item "Keys to Darkness for a Period" in the large-scale battle "Haylose's Nine Prisons" was made by Sage Miral Lake.

But that and this was in the game, and I didn't really care because I thought it was background information to boost the story.

"Yeah, well. That said, I've hardly ever named myself that either. You haven't lost your apprentice yet in the mood. It just seems about the master."

"Maybe“ The Wise Men of Milal Lake ”is a hereditary system?

"You will. Call me Li-Gun."

It was a much lower back greeting to inherit the name. There is little intimidation as imagined by the word sage.

Silence flows between them.

Slowly moisturizing his throat with black rose tea, Siloe kept thinking at high speed. The appearance at the Lords' Meeting of the Alliance of Free Cities Eastal was the result of the other party's request, but more emphasis on gathering information on the current situation. If you attend this Lords' Conference, you will gain an understanding with the ruling class, or at least the political class, of this world. In that case, I expected to get more extensive information than would be comparable to the rumors in the city.

But I didn't know such a big guy would get caught.

Three months after the Catastrophe.

The various knowledge of this world is slowly brought to the siloes. At least, you'll be able to cloud that you've managed to get all your knowledge in living your day. The food, the clothes, the dwellings above the raindrops, the siloes, the people of the city of Akiba were able to get them.

But the more knowledge we get, the more painful Shiloe is the fact that "we don't know anything".

If there is only one siloe, there is no problem.

Alternatively, most of the problems can be solved if you just live with a few of your people. Whatever the "Earthlings" think, whatever the reality of this world, the Shiloes have the ability to fight just to survive there. Whether you continue your journey or base somewhere in the back of the mountain, there is no matter how you gesture.

But Siloe is not in a position to think about that right now, and I don't want to think about it. Fifteen thousand people in the city of Akiba. There are nearly 30,000 Adventurers (players) on this server.

With this number of people, there is no reason to go on a journey, and there is no reason to hide from the "earthlings" and make a sneak living. We have to relate to the "Earthlings" and the world itself.

The population of Akiba, 15,000, is too large in this Japanese server management area, which is probably only about a million people. You just take some action and you have too many ripple-like effects on this world. New ways to create items now have a huge impact on this world.

- Of course, even if Nyata didn't discover the ingenuity to that extent, someone would have discovered and spread the word in a few months. That was a solo walk with a psychological gap because we panicked in the Catastrophe and everyone fell asleep.

That's not why Shiloe feels responsible for the spread of the new item creation method. But I only needed to have the awareness that that knowledge had affected the world.

And such things will have to continue to happen. Whatever you might call them, they are a kind of foreign object to this other world. In-depth knowledge is needed to steer the results in as calm and non-destructive a direction as possible. The knowledge was overwhelming and insufficient for the Shiloes today.

(This meeting……. probably will be more important than the Lords' Conference)

Li-Gang stares at the siloe tightening his expression with interest and begins to talk.

"Earlier I named myself a magician, a magic researcher, but the variety is enormous. It also covers a wide range of areas. I specialize in world-class magic."

- World-class.

Hearing unfamiliar words, Siloe nods with her hands on her chin.

"Yes. That's how you classify magic on the scale of its effects. It will be operational, combat, operational, tactical, strategic, defensive, continental and world-class. Of course these classifications are one-sided. In addition to classifying on a scale, we can also classify things that deal with energy, things that change the likelihood of things, things that deal with summons, and characteristics, and we often use a method based on the strength of the surgeon."

Siloe listens to the conversation but proceeds with her thoughts.

It's definitely an unfamiliar idea to hear. It would belong to the Wizard to deal with magic of its kind, for example, energy. It belongs to the Summoner who handles the summons. It is understandable to treat it with the kind I said so. It's an easy way to understand.

It was also well understood that each surgeon's strength was divided. If it's player-style, it's a guy called Mastery Magic by Level, which is also used to introduce magic on the official page of Elder Tail.

"Classification by scale is a method of classification when discussing magic phenomenologically from the point of view of scale or in conjunction with its purpose.

Operating grades represent a degree of magic that can magically replace one behavior. Wave your sword, for example, to wound the demon. The magic that does this with magic is the operating class. The effect of "inflicting hand wounds on several bodies from one demon to the other" is possible because even one action is possible. So most of the magic used by the magicians is operational. Even with increased Attack, Operating Class is only Operating Class. "

If you go with that idea, the basic attack spell "Mind Bolt" used by Siloe will be operational. It's a magical spell that launches a spiritual damage shockwave, but that effect is roughly equal to shooting a bow and arrow. Whatever the damage or the evangelical effect, it remains incidental.

"A combat class is the magic that shapes the end of one battle. By using one of these magics, do you mean magic that can determine the fate of an enemy platoon, or an ally platoon?"

Apparently, classification by this magical scale is quite profound. For example, the hypnotic spell "Astral Hypno" used by Siloe means "Operating Grade" alone. Depending on how you use it, however, you have the power to push all platoon-sized enemies to the brink of death. In that case, it is not strange to be classified as a "combat class".

"An operational class is magic that is large enough to shape two to three battles together. This is where legendary battle magicians in the world are classified as the greatest sorcery."

Multiple fights, when it comes to powerful ability-conferring magic? Even if Shiloe searches all of his magic, I see only one stunt that reaches this rank.

"A tactical class is the stage on it. One day to a few days, in a group of enemies, you will have a magic that will only shape one castle, one tower, one hall, and so on in one blow."

When we get here, we're exceeding Siloe's imaginary limits.

Regardless of the simulation game, "Elder Tail" was an RPG where players manipulated a character called themselves to play. If an "adventurer" as an individual is destructive on that scale, he or she would say that cooperation between players is unnecessary in the first place. That's overwhelming devastation.

"Well, let's go on a run after that. A strategic-class is a single magic that can shape one war. A defense class is magic on a scale that can shape one hostile nation. A continental class is a magic of scale that can dictate even from the point of view of seeing a whole continent from the top of a map. And what is world-class..."

"You mean magic that can shape the survival, laws, and destiny of the world......?

"Exactly."

I understand it as a concept.

It is understandable if it is the subject of research. But does such magic exist? No, I'm a magician in the Elder Tail world, and I'm an enchanter myself. Doubting the existence of magic is a ridiculous story, but the scale of the story was too large to come with a pin.

"The... Excuse me, is that an assumption? I can understand the classification itself. Does such magic actually exist? Are you talking theoretically about being the subject of research?

Li-Gan grinned and denied Shiloe's question.

"It exists. Its magic has been exercised three times, even if I have only confirmed it in the literature and in practice. The magic is called Mori Luo Transformation.

"… Catastrophe, is it?"

With Li-Gang's expression, I knew that the moment I asked.

Magic of that magnitude is no longer an exercise of individual abilities.

Maybe some kind of transcendental presence exercised magic, but even the researcher's sight can't get into its entirety.

Strategic. Defense. Continental class.... why is there a need for a magical level in the research process that doesn't even exist? Actually, I do.

We may not be able to reach the "Earthlings" or the "Adventurers", but volcanic eruptions caused by the activation of the Spirit of Fire, and major earthquakes caused by the Spirit of the Earth - in the form that I said, the "Defense Class/Magic Disaster" can occur.

As an Adventurer (player), you can cloud that Siloe's preconceived notions, which were too familiar with Elder Tail, created a misconception. I was thinking in the stereotype that "magic is what magicians exercise". I do find that convincing if I think about it.

The sight of this lean researcher named Li-Gang lies in the beyond magic used by individuals. Indeed, he is not a "magician" but a "magic researcher". His ambition is not the expansion of his abilities, but the investigation of the mystery of the world. That is tantamount to an ambition to unravel the structure of the world.

"You call that incident in May a catastrophe. The" Earthlings "simply seem to call it the" Revolution "or the" May Incident, "but I call it the" Third Mori Luo Transformation. "I called you this time to exchange words in order to get whatever information you have on Mori Luo Transformation is good. As a researcher, I want to know everything."

Li-Gang's eyes were shining with curiosity, but those eyes seemed sincere.

(I don't mind talking. Anyway, there's very little we know. But......)

"Third, you said? - To say that in this world, there are signs that world-class magic has been used before. Can I talk to you about that? We adventurers don't have much information about catastrophes. Let's talk about that. But we also need to get a little more information about the catastrophe."

◆

To Siroe's words Li-Gang took a beat off by taking a drink.

"I don't mind that, but this story will be long. Are you sure?

"..." "Yes, please"

After confirming that the neighbor Akatsuki snorts silently, Shiloe replies to Li-Gang. Akatsuki also seems to be listening with a nervous face.

"Right. Where shall I explain it from? Of course, as I said earlier, I don't know everything about Mori Luo Transformation... No, I'd rather say I know almost nothing.

So it's terribly easy to cut it off with 'It's an old case'...... then I guess that doesn't explain it. You may. From the roots as far as I can tell. … Let's start with the old story "

Siloe fixes the position of sitting on the couch and nods deeply.

From the background in the first place, that was where Shiloe wanted it too.

"About 350 years ago now. I say this world was much more prosperous than it is today. Of course, it doesn't compare to the 'Old World' that sank on the other side of the legend, but the human population seems to have tripled to five times what it is today. Humanity was active mainly on the continent, and its prints stretched all the way to the end of the earth."

"What's a continent?

"Oh, it's Euled next door."

Eurasian continent. China, Middle Eastern countries, continents including Europe, or Shiloe nods. Needless to say, it is the largest continent in this other world.

But it was surprising to Shiloe that it was not the 'Old World'. According to the game background legend of Elder Tail, this world should have been "torn apart" and reconfigured by the "old world" with evolved scientific civilization. There was a long dark period after the reconfiguration, only on the official website, so I only assumed that the impression was that the 'Old World' had been reconfigured and then the start as a game of 'Elder Tail' had begun.

But this is all the buildings and roads in the Old World are decaying. Come to think of it, something must have happened between those blanks, too. Or maybe that's the dark season.

Is Li-Gang talking about that dark period? I just thought it was a blank time with no events such as the Dark Period, so it's a form of being poked at.

"The world was inhabited by four species: humans, alves, elves and dwarves. They boasted of each other, and the nations were peaceful, rich. There are many pieces of high-performance magic that can still be found in the depths of the dungeons in this era. Also, magical monuments like" The Ancient Court of Eternal Ice "that we're in now obviously belong to a different lineage than" The Old World, "don't they? These ruins were made by Alv in this era.

Yes, Alv was the inventor of magic and the pioneer of a mighty magical civilization. They created all sorts of magical instruments to reveal the mysteries of the world. "

Alv. It was considered an "already extinct ancient race" if we came to an official explanation. Shiloe draws its blood far away as a 'half-alv' but has never felt any history in playing. It was a recognition of a race with high magic abilities and suitability for the use of magic props.

"It has nothing to do with the main line, so I will omit it, but its pioneer has become a disciple. Alv had a high intelligence, a research mind, and a magical talent, but his fertility as a species was weak. There were no more people, and all the Alvy kingdoms everywhere were printingly small.

And the kingdoms of the Alves will one after another be destroyed by a coalition state of other races who felt outraged by such a minority tribe's monopoly on magic technology.

- It was the demise of the kingdom of the Alves. Their glorious history will be interrupted here. "

Is that even more so than the Alves are extinct?

Although Shiloe herself draws the blood of that alv, the tragedy did not incite the national heart to Shiloe separately. Was there a setting to say so, or was it recognition to that extent?

"Master Shiloe is a half-alv, isn't he? Do you know why the Alves are extinct and still have the Half Alves?

In other words, that represents the end of the Alv system. With the destruction of numerous kingdoms of the Alves, what was most valuable was the knowledge of witchcraft, followed by high-performance magic tools. And they were followed by...... the Alves themselves. The Alves became slaves of the world. In all places - in the kingdom of man, in the kingdom of elves, in the kingdom of Dwarves the Alves were bought and sold. And that descendant, who was offended and diluted his blood, is the current Half Alv. Most nowadays it is isolated hereditary, to some extent it comes from human parents...... Oh, that's what we talked about. You shouldn't.

Anyway, the kingdom of the Alves was doomed, but after that, a wave of turmoil still stood still, and that's where Alves appeared. "

"" Princess Liu Tin "...?

It was an unfamiliar word to hear. Li-Gang glances literally at his fingertips on the table. Six, maybe six? Tilt, princess. Tilt, princess.

"There are all kinds of theories about who Princess Roppo is. In this case, the identity refers to the individual name, origin, etc. But what's certain is that they were princesses of the Alvy kingdom all over the continent.

Incidentally, the name "Princess Liu Tin" was given by future generations of historians, who themselves allegedly did not know each other or conspire.

Like the majority of the other Alv people, they became slaves to the human world. You must have been lucky you just weren't executed because you came from a royal family. According to the history books, "I was loved like a jewel because of its extra beauty”. He was to be held captive as a loving slave to the royalties, luxuries and rulers of various nations at the time and kept in six countries.

But they didn't end up as slaves. Something is with its magic. Some led the people of Alv, who became slaves as well, and some caged the royal family to rule their society from the shadows, raising the werewolf smoke of counter-attacks to all mankind. "

Siloe was drawn to such a story, but was still close to neutrality in her mood. Somewhat more so than the Alves.

It was the Union State headed by man that started the invasion in the first place. Just because you get a counterattack, it's a muscle difference that makes you furious.

"The humans, dwarves and elves who destroyed the kingdom of the Alves got a lot of magic technology, but at the time it hadn't even reached the point of use. This is how an awesome muddy battle began.

Speaking of why it became muddy, it was human and dwarf. Humans and elves. Because the Elves and Dwarves nations began to dispute each other.

"Princess Six Leaning" was not a hero but a vengeful one. They sprinkled peer-to-peer buds into human society by thoroughly backing up, disrupting society, and confusing people. Many human beings have died in this battle. That death toll, if the record is correct, is comparable to that of all humankind in this world today.

But on the other hand, Princess Liu Tin was also cornered. It's an alv system. Its weakness is the small number coming from weak fertility. Even if hidden in the shadows of peers, it is brittle if discovered. When Princess Six Leaning was about to be taken... it was activated by the First Mori Transformation. "

"First..."

To the appearance of the subject of the story, Siroe drinks solidly.

If I noticed, Akatsuki next to Shiloe seemed totally listening to me too.

"Yep. There is a good chance that this" First Mori Luo Transformation "is considered a high-altitude ritual magic used by the Alv system. Of course, many mysteries remain. Especially in terms of technology, it seems riddled with mysteries and even the basic principles of reproduction are unknown.

But anyway, the Mori Luo Transformation happened.

The effect of this is the subhuman outbreak.... There hasn't been a subhuman in this world for about 300 years. "

- There were no subhumans.

That was a word I hadn't imagined. But if that is the case, we can also see that human society, including the Alv system, has prospered dozens of times today. The earth belonged precisely to mankind.

"It's called a subhuman outbreak, but I don't think it's a heterogeneous mating or a biochemical problem. This is a study around where my master was doing it, but it is currently my hypothesis that this" Mori Luo Transformation "has something to do with [Soul]...

At least at that time, the world was overflowing with so much soul material. Because repeated wars had drastically reduced the world population to nearly half. And that soul material was used as a sub-human-generated material.

Mankind, diminished by war, is driven into destitution by subhumans who have boiled like clouds and summers from all over. Many cities fell and the army, which was supposed to be invincible, was devastated. Most of the countries called countries have been dismantled.

Currently, this archipelago is a Yamato by its ancient name. In Yamato, only the "Ancient Dynasty Westlande" remains the last 300 years of statehood. It was only a small village in the countryside, including many of the cities and capitals of the Alliance of Free Cities Eastal.

Because of the subhuman outbreak, the world has undergone a major change in the construct of 'mankind desperately defending a narrow civilized area while fighting subhuman invasion' as it is today. The world has closed to darkness. Ultimately, the humans will defeat the hunted down Princess Six Leaves, but their revenge is a success. "

Defeated (Princess Six Leaning).

Activated Mori Luo Transformation.

Mass occurrence of subhumans using soul as material.

"This is how it came about in the dark ages. As I said earlier, all over the world, subhuman species such as Goblin, Kobold, Oak, Auga, Troglodite, Knoll, Safaggin and Lizardman spoke up. These brutal and ugly life forms eroded the civilized sphere of humanity. Humanity gradually darkens and shades its life.

Research has now progressed, and defensive magic and junctionism - these are also legacies of the Alv system - have developed. But there was no help with those either at the time.

So mankind planned a desperate disobedience operation. The first thing that was exchanged was to create a new warrior, using Alvy secrets. As a result of a large-scale experiment called the North Lilia Project, the three beasts of the Cat Nation, the Wolffang Nation, and the Foxtail Nation, now seen, were artificially generated. They got off to a start as an artificial race to be sent to the front. "

Earlier, I was anxious because only human, Dwarf, and elf species emerged, but they said that the rest of the species appeared here. The Cat Clan, Wolffang Clan, Foxtail Clan, and Fayi Clan were adjusted for combat, which is why they were artificial species (hybrids).

"Also, several states in Eured gave up that they could not win this battle. They form a large fleet and travel to the new continent. In terms of results, subhumans also existed on the new continent, where they begin their efforts to build a pioneering nation that cuts through new heavens and earth.

And moreover, it was the ancient species that humankind gave birth to with the power of its faith. "

- A new continent. This would be about "The Land of Wen". It's the Americas where the original world was. And it seems that the discovery of the American continent in this other world took place during the last 300 years.

Of course, this is a historical legacy in the Eurasian-Asian world, so maybe the details will change again if we go there. Shiloe tries to imagine just a little bit about the U.S. server management area, but when she shook her head, she pulled back her thoughts.

"There are theories about the occurrence of" Ancient Species, "but there is no doubt that a small number of" Ancient Species "genealogies began in this period. As for" ancient species "... well, another time. Let's just say that it was a matter of Soul Theory.

But throwing down numerous technologies in this way did not stop mankind from heading towards annihilation. The forces of the sub-humans were so powerful. On top of that, apparently, the world still had the curse-like effect of the First Mori Luo Transformation. This, as we first talked about, is a matter of soul.

The forces of the sub-humans do not diminish when defeated. Even if you knock it down, its soul is reincarnated into a subhuman...... this is hypothetical, but they have such an odd breeding curve that they can't explain it without thinking so.

Of course, pre-adult individuals exist, albeit subhuman, so that force will be greatly reduced if we reduce the number to one. This means that if you kill a subhuman, that individual will be reborn and returned to the childhood body. As for the individual, he cannot return to war for several years. But after three years, they'll be back on the battlefield. There's no way you can win this. "

- It is.

Isn't that a matter of specification as a game for Elder Tail? That's what Siloe wants to say. Elder Tail is a game. At least it used to be a game. If one particular player would root and hunt the prey of one zone all over, and no other player would be able to reach it at all, this would be an experience where frustration would accumulate.

So by the specifications of the game, even if you defeat a monster, that monster will come back to life after a certain amount of time. It's about offering new prey to players. Failure to do so will result in players winning battle abilities hunting down all monsters in less time.

"Humanity was frightened, desperate, and wished for miracles. The world seemed really dark this time of year. It had already been sixty years since we defeated Princess Six Leaning and activated the First Forest Transformation. During those sixty years mankind sank to the bottom of despair, poverty, hunger and fear.

Most humankind was confined to armed settlements and fortifications, and they were to spend days frightened by the raids of subhumans and warcraft. The revenge of "Princess Six Leaning" seemed successful.

So what happened was the Second Mori Luo Transformation. There is not enough material left for a clear reflection on this, as at the first time. Humanity seemed to be in a dark period, so it must have also lost enough leeway to leave materials behind.

According to a handful of information, the use of sacred summoning techniques, which mobilized humans and elves, Dwarves, and many "Methodists", has been documented. Some texts clearly depict it as' the salvation of God '...... Anyway, "Mori Luo Transformation" happened again.

Just about 240 years from now. - It's the adventurer. "

240 years from now.

The adventurer's appearance.

"Then the history ahead, there's not much to tell. The tremendous combat ability of the Adventurer has become the great gospel of mankind." The Necromancer is the Original Case, "" The King of the Underworld Case, "" The Dragon's Throne Case ". Various crises hit Yamato, but the Adventurer overcame all of them. This world, for about 240 years, of course, was not at peace, but it was finally getting some stability and following a twitchy path of reconstruction."

(And it connects to the present...)

"Are you the Adventurer?... Speaking of which, Mr. Li-Gan knew my name, didn't he? Why is that?

Shiloe is curious and asks.

"Master Shiloe is a great magician. Among the Adventurers, I thought the situation was bright."

"The Great Mage...?

Siloe twists her neck. I don't recall running a high-ranking quest to gain such a reputation.

"It was not until '98 that Master Shiloe first appeared in history. Of course there are other long-lived adventurers, but from the frequency of their activities, there is no mistake that Master Shiloe is the Great Mage. Isn't that right?

(98!? …)

Siloe's brain starts spinning that circuit like it was on fire at the same time. Time in this world is. The history of this world. … So what happened in 240 years is the Second Mori Luo Transformation.
