Then he took Alice and headed towards Likaris Town.

"stop!"

Two guards stood at the town gate.

One is a serious-looking guy with a snake head, and the other is a pig-headed guy who looks a bit arrogant.

Alice stared at the guards with bright eyes.

Demons on the Central Continent are rare, but on the Demon Continent, demons like this are everywhere.

But then again.

Even in the Asra Kingdom, which is the XP melting pot, there shouldn’t be anyone interested in this kind of demon, right?

……

It's hard to say.

"Who are you and what are you doing here?"

The snake-headed guard asked as he looked at us.

"We are travelers from the Central Continent."

"Central Continent? Hey, kid, don't talk nonsense. How far is Central Continent from here?"

"We are human race, right?"

On the Demon Continent, pure human beings are extremely rare.

So after seeing the races of Alice and I, the two guards believed it directly.

However, the pig-headed guard who looked a little arrogant still didn't let us in immediately.

"I would like to remind you out of kindness, leave as soon as you have replenished food and water. This is not a place to stay for a long time."

"Why do you say that?"

"Because...since yesterday, some adventurers have witnessed quite terrifying monsters outside the city."

The pig-headed guard said.

Subconsciously shuddered.

38. Eyes reflecting the stars

"Um, what is the scary monster?"

"I'm not sure. According to the adventurers' information, it seems to be a terrifying giant several hundred meters high."

"How could there be such a thing..."

"I think so too, but not just one person said so, almost all the adventurers active nearby said so."

Just as I planned.

Since yesterday, reports of sightings of rock giants have been circulating.

It's several hundred meters high.

The ground cracks when you walk on it.

Can crush S-class monsters to death with one kick.

Superior magic is invalid.

All kinds of information are circulating in the city.

At first, some people thought it was just a rumor, but the witnesses all insisted that they saw the rock giant with their own eyes and had no choice but to believe it.

Then, a panic began to spread in the city.

In this kind of panic, even [Dead End] is nothing.

After all, [Dead End] can also gather a large number of adventurers to drive them away.

But that monster...

I'm afraid the city wall can collapse with just one step.

"Rudeus, what level of magic is that rock giant?"

Alice originally thought it was just a giant made of ordinary stones.

But after entering the city, I heard the topics discussed by passers-by and felt that this was not the case.

"What kind of magic is this?"

To be honest, the definition of magic is vague to me.

Because of the non-chanting spellcasting, I can usually reshape and compress the magic.

The intermediate magic rock cannonball can be used by me with emperor-level power.

As for this rock giant, its entire body is composed of rock cannonballs that are comparable to the power of an emperor.

Because of its slow movement speed, it may not be able to hurt swordsmen above the king level.

But judging from the overall strength, it should have reached the level of god, right?

Do not……

Now is not the time to brag.

"Alice."

"What's wrong Rudy?"

"If I created that rock giant and this was exposed, I'm afraid everyone in the city would want to kill me."

"Huh? Ah...ah!?"

Alice was stunned for a moment, then looked shocked.

"Maybe there will be a sword king-level master who will jump out and assassinate me?"

"Ru, Rudeus is so powerful, he can definitely win..."

"Magicians are very fragile. They can't beat swordsmen in close combat. I can't beat masters like Kirennu and Ruijerrod."

"Well……"

Alice swallowed, and her hand unconsciously fell on the Murama sword.

Somewhat nervous.

That's fine, that's how it should be.

Just because I have strength, Alice cannot be completely dependent on me.

"So Alice needs to become stronger so she can protect me."

"oh, I understand now!"

Alice nodded with an unusually firm attitude.

"Rudy, where are we going now?"

"Go to the Adventurer's Guild first."

The Adventurer's Guild gathers most of the combat power in this town. If Likaris Town is in danger, it will summon adventurers as soon as possible.

Think so.

I took Alice towards the Adventurer's Guild.

"Adventurers! Rudy, do we want to be adventurers?"

"Alice has always missed her, right?"

"Ok!"

Alice nodded repeatedly, her face flushed with excitement.

Look at Alice like this.

I smiled knowingly.

Yes.

Really are……

It's been too long.

As a result, I almost forgot about it.

In fact, at her core, Alice is a person who longs for freedom and freedom.

For her, becoming a noble was not a happy thing.

Like me and Paul, she was not a fan of aristocrats.

But she was Phyllis's only remaining daughter. Born into a family like that, she had no chance to choose her fate.

Therefore.

After losing the shackles of her aristocratic status, Alice could spread her wings and fly high.

People will eventually become who they want to be.

The girl who longs for freedom will finally be free.

Alice, I'm sorry.

The greatest happiness I can give you is to let you become the person you want to be.

This is……

I will give you the compensation in this life.
