Sairin Yuusha no Fukushuu Hanashi

Vandel, capital of the Gran Silk Empire.

Covered by strong walls, Vandell is also known as the Castle Shell City.

The guardian is very strong and has yet to be broken.

Structurally, no walls exist over the imperial capital.

But when things happen, powerful connections unfold, and attacks from above do not come in.

On the issue of the cost of magic, the state of de facto truce with the Demon King's Army is not now stretched, but Vandel can nevertheless be said to be a safe city among the countries present in Leitesia, entering the three-fingered.

Visitors from all over the country were gathered in such cities.

They are guided inside the Imperial Castle and waiting in a large room.

It is the Heads of State who sit in their chairs and wait for the meeting to begin.

And behind them sitting in a chair are refraining from those brought as escorts.

"Whew, Maria. It's not a meeting where great people get together, and sweet treats and stuff come out?

In a rugged room, one girl gave a bright voice out of place.

She's a chestnut-haired girl wearing an unsized robe.

He narrows his amber eyes to sleep and speaks to the woman standing next to him in a yawning mixture.

Her name is Chris Grimnotes.

Formed to defend the Empire, he is the head of the Protector Mage.

He is so known as a genius magician that he has competed with the Great Mage.

"Perhaps this meeting will be a long one. There should be some tea and sweets. Even if it didn't come out, I have some personal treats I bought before I got here. After the meeting, let's act."

Chris' question was answered by a gray-haired woman wearing pale silver armor.

The name is Maria Teresia Stragen.

He has made himself the most squad captain of the diocesan knights, which the Church is proud of, and is also the captain of the regiment.

"Wow, you did it! What kind of treat is that?

"It's a sweet treat made with wheat, taken near Schmeltz. It's crisp and very tasty and I like to eat it too"

Maria replies with an even more serious look to Chris, who jumps happily.

But as soon as she had such an exchange, Maria frowned and threw an inquiry at Chris.

"I'm sorry for the lame question, but are you sure on Chris Grimnotes? I remember I was an old woman the other day."

"Oh, that's Noon's mother. As a matter of fact, Chris Grimnots is a hereditary."

"Oh my goodness. Was I? Thank you very much to my predecessor, Lord Chris."

"No, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no.

Maria opens her eyes to surprise and honestly accepts Chris' words.

There, a scratch flew in from across the street from Maria with a shuddering voice.

"Chris is magically wrapping his whole body around and embedding magic gifts (magic items) or something at the end of the sentence. That's why her figure changes regularly. When I met you before, you were Bon Cubbon's sister, right?

Ugh, and it was a blue-haired, dark-haired, middle-aged man who said so with a disgusting gaze toward Chris.

There are a number of wounds engraved on his face that remind him of his history of war, but he doesn't make the viewer feel a harsh image because of the expression he is floating on.

He was such a man, as the world calls him a pleasant Osama.

The man's name is Guardal Agaronte.

An adventurer belonging to the Union.

One of only five S-rank adventurers, scouted straight from the Congress of Representatives.

Though he seems to be in a good mood, he has not neglected to be alert to his surroundings at all on this occasion either.

"This is Guardal! Stop being such a bore. I made fun of Maria because of you!

"Don't play with the top of the Cathedral Knight, Grandma! But even you, you're just doing something heretical, so weigh yourself a little! If it's a fight, get out there and do it!

Seeing the two arguing, Maria puts her hand on her jaw with interest as she "Hmm".

"I mean, is Lord Chris the same person as the previous Lord Chris? Changing your appearance with witchcraft means doing something monstrous inside. But that's interesting. Actually, I care about beauty, too. Sir Chris, can you tell me in what way you're still young?

It's a trade secret.

"... well. Too bad."

"No, no, no, because you're not on that level of beauty or anything, this old lady!

Chris' body, and not a single part of it where no magic is used exists.

Modifications are made by magic and magic grants to limbs, head, hair and skin.

Even those who can keep their appearance young, there will be no one else but Chris who can change their appearance corny.

"But it's Mr. Chris. Why did you make it so hard to fight again? Couldn't it have been a muscular body or something?

"That's why I looked in the mirror. Look in the mirror, non cute! Because it's fun to be, because there's until you're changing your body, no!

"Roku, but hey."

Removing her gaze from the girdle of her ragged face, Chris talks to Maria with a grin on her face.

"Actually. Lolibaba is popular in alleys right now."

"Lo...... li?

"In Loribaba. Even though the contents and tone belong to the old man, the appearance refers to an adorable child. In the future, Loribaba will be world-famous, so you should study Maria too."

"Lori, Baba. That's Loribaba. All right, I remember. I'll tell the rosaries when I get home."

"So don't tell me anything weird! I've never heard of that! Oh, don't let the lady fool you, too!

Within such an exchange, dignitaries from all over the country enter the room.

King of the kingdom of Onlin.

Brought in as its escort, the selector.

And Renhi Avenger, a retired knight known as the ancient strong.

Three representatives who came as representatives from the Sub-Autonomous Communities.

Fairy Species (Elves) Representative, Michaela Luminarier.

Groundfairy (Dwarf) Representative, Gotham Botham.

Eince Dolgren, Representative of the Human Dog Breed (Wardog).

All three are known as powerful men who will be at the top of the Great Forest.

"Apparently, we're all here."

He confirmed that those who had come had taken their seats, and the emperor, who had remained silent until then, opened his mouth.

"Shall we then start a conference with the fate of the world"

◆

Heavy towns of all nations gathered in the empire to hold meetings.

For months now, successive labyrinths of five generals have fallen.

Now that the number of labyrinths that plagued each country has decreased so far, it is a good opportunity to slap the Demon King's Army.

A few more days ago, it was confirmed that unusual magic would spread from the direction of the demon king's realm.

At the same time, with demons everywhere starting to activate, it is speculated that Orteguia may have been resurrected.

If Orteguia wakes up, the situation moves even if the answer is no.

Then it is the common understanding of all countries that we should take the initiative by moving here.

How are we going to send troops into the demon kingdom?

It was when the debate about it was about to begin.

"Before I do, I'd like to ask you one thing about the kingdom, okay?

The Pope of the Patriarchate raises his hand and turns his gaze to the King.

"Isn't the kingdom hiding something from us? It's also very important to fight the Demon King's Army."

To the Pope's point, the King opened his eyes.

From the forehead glowing with fat, sweat flows.

"Oh, oh...... As for Luisas Gilburne not being here..."

"I'm also concerned about that, but it's more important than that. The Church wonders if the kingdom has secretly summoned the brave"

"Huh!?"

That the fall of the labyrinth continues like a line, starting from the kingdom.

That the kingdom had gathered massive amounts of demonic stones from all over for months before the fall of the Nara Labyrinth.

Within the Church, brave men and thoughtful figures are witnessed.

The Pope speaks of them in a dramatic tone.

"No way."

Hearing that, the representatives of the Union and the Emperor leaked their voices at the same time.

And he speaks of the presence of two adventurers who fell the Purgatory Labyrinth, the Dead Swamp Labyrinth.

The appearance was consistent with those witnessed within the Church.

"Again, I ask you. Isn't there something you're hiding from us?

"Yes, no, that's..."

It was the moment when the king tried to escape.

――――

Immediately behind the Pope, a freezing killing spirit was unleashed towards the King.

Maria is turning her gaze to the king with a loose expression.

In the diocesan knights there are those who do not spare their lives if they are to reward God.

There are fanatics slaughtered by divine enemies, regardless of their differences in strength or numbers.

Maria is one of them.

Those who denigrate the glory of the “Holy Light God” Melt will not forgive, even if they are the Lord of one nation.

"Your Majesty, I'm sorry, but she can't protect you."

In response to Maria's killings, the king's escort, Renhi, and the selector are in position.

But it was obvious that they couldn't beat Maria, even if it was all a lie.

To Lenh's words, the king opened his mouth with notion.

"... indeed, the kingdom summoned the brave"

In one word of the king, a blur occurs all over the room.

I summoned a brave man.

That is because it is nothing more than hope for each country.

But the king immediately continued his words.

"But this is not the general thrust of the kingdom"

"What does that mean?

"I made a name for myself earlier... because this summons was done arbitrarily by Luisas Gilburne"

Once again, blurring occurs.

Speaking of Luisas Gilburne, he was Yingjie who fought with Amatsu in a battle thirty years ago.

His presence means a great deal not only to the kingdom, but also to the nations.

The king speaks.

Lewsas used his power to summon brave men at his discretion.

However, because it was not a formal summons, it was the one who was summoned who could not deal fully with the 'testimony of the brave'.

Even so, the presence chosen by Melt.

The kingdom tried to generously entertain the brave, but Lewsas once again took the brave to the Narrow Labyrinth with discretion.

It's unclear how he did it, but Lewsas crusaded the Narrow Labyrinth with the brave.

I wish that was all, but Lewsas has missed him as he is with the brave.

To bring back the brave, the kingdom forced the selectors to follow Luisas.

Then I discovered Luisas, but couldn't find the brave one.

The selectors tried to find out where the brave man was, but it became a battle.

Most of the selectors died, and at the end of it, so did Luisas.

We are still exploring about the brave, but we have not found them.

"If the Demon King Army finds out about this, they will try to kill the brave. For that reason, we decided to lay low the presence of the brave until we protected the brave."

Everyone on the spot shuts up to the king's words.

The brave man is missing, and Luisas is dead.

Many of the selectors died and the kingdom lost much of its fighting power.

Worst case scenario.

"... are you lying? The guy from Lewsas, he's dead...?

In that, Chris opens his mouth flashly.

"I'm going to keep losing... and now I'm going to win."

The air in the room gets heavier on Chris, who drops his shoulders.

It was when the Emperor tried to open his mouth, saying it should not remain this way.

"- Listen, you stupid mortals and subhumans."

From above the Empire, a voice echoed.

◆

Over the imperial capital Vandel, countless demons were flying.

One of them, an individual two or more times bigger than any other demon, opens his fangled mouth wide.

"My name is Gorvald. It is under the authority of the great Demon King, Lord Orteguia '

A dragon breed named Gorvald uses witchcraft to sound his voice all over the Empire.

'Listen to me! Our king, Lord Orteguia, is resurrected!! Therefore, I have come to announce the end to you fools!!'

A voice echoing from the bottom of the earth informs the Empire of the resurrection of Orteguia.

This was a declaration of war from the Demon King's Army.

Gorvald snorts when he screams under his eyes and sees the rushing imperial people.

What is the Imperial City and what is the Castle Shell City.

If you asked me where humans and subhumans would have a meeting, it was a crap place with no big deal.

I was instructed to make a thorough declaration of war and see how things were going, but I'm going to leave now.

"So... when the war is declared, do you suppose to drop the Empire and return?"

Gorvald growls toward heaven.

Moments, other dragon species roar as they resonate, heading towards Imperial Castle.

I hear there are heavy towns in Imperial Castle.

Drop the imperial capital and kill the heavy towns of all nations, this war will be easier at once.

All that Gorvald has led is a young fierce demon.

Some of them are dragon breeds, which can also be called demon kings.

And Gorvald himself is powerful enough to be comparable to the "Earthly Demon General”.

There is no such thing as dropping the Empire.

Gorvald was convinced of the victory when he saw the dragon breeds releasing their braces as they first headed to Imperial Castle.

"Non is now on his mind"

With such a voice, all the braces were played before they reached Imperial Castle.

On the roof of Imperial Castle, a girl stood.

When the girl sticks her hands forward, something like a barrel pops out of her palm.

"- Then die early, you miscellaneous fish."

Immediately after, the magic was unleashed with tremendous momentum from the cylinder.

The girl - the dragon breeds who were trying to attack Chris, are shot through in an instant and fall to the ground.

"Little...! Kill that human!! '

Following Gorvald's instructions, the demons storm the humans.

But before it reached Chris, the demon was shot down by another attack.

"Hi-ha, your grandmother's mad. Oh, my God."

"That guy sure, because he viewed Lord Luisas as a one-sided rival. Hey. Perhaps you regret getting away with it."

"Uh...... That old lady, how much are you willing to pack her attributes..."

Two more humans appear, tapping lightly.

S Rank Adventurer Guardal and the old knight of the kingdom, Renhi.

As they converse, they are defeating the approaching demons without incident.

Gardall wears a demon torso in magic, and Renhi is skipping slaughter and mowing his neck.

The attack did not come off as a single time, and every time the two moved, the demons reduced the number.

"Mr. Renhi, you'll do it. The boulder is the one who fought with the hero Amatsu."

"I'm not serious at all. I can't be honest with you if you compliment me."

"Heh, they're spotting us. I don't seem to be compatible with the old man."

In the meantime, demons are decreasing in number with terrible momentum.

The three of us on the roof are not the only ones attacking.

From the window of Imperial Castle, three sub-men are shooting magic.

By their attacks, even the dragon breeds are being hit one after the other.

"All the time......!

Gorvald found out that his perception was sweet.

Defending Imperial Castle are so many monsters that they are comparable to the Demons who are good at battle.

Fighting from the front is not a good idea.

Therefore, Gorvald decided to flee.

Except after shooting a mighty blow in.

Gorvald moves away from the Imperial Castle to activate a mighty sorcery.

"-" Collapse Pile (Collapse Stake) "'

What it produces is a pile the size of its own.

If this hits, even those guys won't just be sorry.

"Die good, you lower bitches!!"

Just before Gorvald tried to unleash magic.

"- You're the one who's gonna die, the one who's the bitch."

I heard a voice.

A human voice, from right around the corner.

"Nah...!?"

Turning his gaze toward his voice, Gorvald was stunned.

One woman had scaffolded one flying dragon species after another, coming right in front of Gorvald.

The dragon species scaffolded is causing his body to shake as if he had been crushed by something huge, falling to the ground.

It is the armor of pale silver that surrounds it.

And that is a testament to being a cathedral knight.

"No way... you, the mightiest cathedral knight... ugh"

“Heavenly" Maria Theresia Stragen.

A cathedral knight, called the most powerful of mankind, was in front of Gorvald.

"- Huh."

Turn your aim into Maria, and Gorvald releases a collapsed pile.

No matter how powerful humanity is, we can't take this blow with unstable scaffolding.

Shortly after that thought, Gorvald would know that his perception was still sweet.

――――

Maria waved down the sword she had in her hand.

That was all.

Only then did the collapse pile disappear and Gorvald, who was ahead of him, was also severed.

"Sooo...... Nah"

At the end of the day, Gorvald's consciousness vanished.

Maria shows no emotion at the death of the chief and, just as she did when she came, scaffolds the dragon species back to earth.

The battle began just short enough, and the demons who came to the Imperial City were wiped out.

"Cleared up"

Without bathing in a single return blood, Maria came down to the roof of the Imperial Castle.

"Hey, hey, hey, hey.

Looks like the most powerful name in the world isn't Dada.

Gardar and Renhi, who had already cleaned up the other dragon species, battle to see that they had defeated the enemies of the Demon General class and had not even run out of breath.

Even on this occasion, Maria's fighting power was unusual.

"Oh......! The demons are so light!

"Isn't that overwhelming...! You can win, you can win!

The leaders who were watching the battle through the window raise their voices.

Maria was looking down at the demons' bodies as she heard the cheers coming from below.

And I say it with a beautiful grin, attracting the beholder.

"- So let's start a war"
