The Demon King Of The Frontier Life, Reincarnated To Become The Strongest Mage ~The Former Demon Kin

"That 'Armed Auga' attacked (presumably) the village a few days ago and occupied it"

"The Adventurer's Alliance," said the receptionist.

"It's a small village at the foot of a rocky mountain near here, but it attacked there, aimed at livestock, and attacked (probably) the villagers. Most of the villagers fled... and there are victims. Then even The Adventurer's Guild sent out a crusade request..."

"... to give you the seriously wounded, he said he had escaped."

A swordsman-style adventurer took over the words of the receptionist.

If you look closely, one arm of a swordsman-style man is bandaged and has a concubine.

The other adventurers are wounded all over their bodies.

If you think it's uncomfortable, the Adventurer Guild is strangely idle.

Fewer than ten adventurers are gathered here. It's too little for anything.

"What kind of demon is it? The" Armed Auga. "

"It's your natural enemy. Magic doesn't work."

A swordsman-style man answers my question.

He tapped the shoulder of a woman in a robe next to him,

"We found 'Armed Auga' while shooting magic for the attack from a distance. I was going to do some damage with a ranged attack first, then bring it into melee. But..."

"The magic of the Atashi disappeared the moment it hit me. On his shield."

"'Armed Auga' is about twice the height of an adult. It's a big ghost with a big arm. That was the big shield shining in silver. This attack magic was all prevented by it."

"The assault magic of the Atasis was completely ineffective. Besides, Auga herself is stiffening her whole body with yoroi."

"I tried to take him down in melee, but he got away. To be honest, that's not a demon a single adventurer can deal with. Brave men, holy knights, that's who they're dealing with."

With that said, the adventurers sighed.

The adventurers let 'Armed Auga' escape to Rock Mountain, he said.

Currently, the town soldiers have a vigilance system at the foot of the mountain, but so far, no sightings.

So it seems that the mayor is flying an early horse to the King's Capital, making a request for the 'Sorcery Guild' and the troops of the King's Capital to be dispatched.

If it's the Great Ghost - the Auga itself, I've fought before in my life, too.

Their weapons are their arm strength, their instantaneous power, and their ability to regenerate.

If that's a shield that doesn't work, or if you got Yoroi to cover the giant, it's definitely troublesome.

I guess the problem depends on that shield and the strength of Yoroi......

"Can you tell Auga where my village was attacked?

"Didn't you say it was dangerous to get involved?

"I'm not going to crusade. As a member of The Magic Guild, I just want to see the scene. There's no more 'Armed Auga' in that place, is there?

"You have no choice. Even if we don't teach... ask the people in town and they'll know."

The swordsman sighed.

The village attacked is near this' town of Gazanon '.

Even if you can't tell me here, if you listen to the rumors (rumors) of the people in town, you'll find out soon enough.

You thought so. The 'Adventurer Guild' people told me where the village was.

However, they say there are soldiers on the route to the village and they make it off-limits.

"Thank you very much." "Thank you for your information."

Me and Odette left the Adventurer Alliance.

"Let's just find the inn. Odette's tired, isn't he?

"I need to talk to you before I do."

"... what the hell"

"Yuki, you're going to the village where 'Armed Auga' attacked you, aren't you?

"Yes, but"

"But the Armed Auga Crusade Quest wasn't in the Alliance. If you don't officially order it, it won't be an achievement in the Sorcery Guild, will it?

"No, nothing. I'm not crusading 'Armed Auga'."

I bought this land specialty fruit from a nearby stall.

It's about the size of a person's head and full of fruit juice.

I gave one to Odette and I moved to the corner of the street.

"Let's rehydrate for now. I walked quite a bit."

"How do you eat this?"

"You have plant stems. So you smoke fruit juice. First you put a knife in it, and then..."

"I see. With a knife..."

Shh.

When I looked to the side, there was Odette punching fruit juice in his face.

I gave her the cloth I had left out of her luggage. Silently.

"... you're ready"

"When I was in the village of Fira, Alice tried to drink the fluffy apple she bought from a pedestrian."

"Please don't. 'Cause when you ask about Alice's age at the time, it snaps."

"So, is that why I'm looking into 'Armed Auga'?

"Yeah, yeah. If you don't order from the Alliance, you won't be able to evaluate it..."

Odette wiped his face before stabbing a straw-substituted stem (kick) in the 'fuwa apple' again.

He had a sinister face until he started smoking fruit juice, but he immediately gave me a startled look.

It's sweet. Fruit juice from "Fluffy apple". Instead, it sticks.

"Of course, I want to crusade the demons that bother everyone. If I had the strength, I would. But..."

"Nothing. I don't want to protect everyone."

"Then why?

"Earlier, a swordsman told you. The shield of" Armed Orga "says the magic didn't work."

"Yeah, you said it. So he says he's the natural enemy of the sorcerer."

"So did The Spirit King (Lord of =) Ride (Phantom), which I fought before. He wasn't a shield, he had a coating on the armor itself that prevented magic."

"Sure. That's what I heard. Does that mean!? The" Sanctuary Church "!?

Odette opened his eyes and looked at me.

Oh, you still have fruit juice on your cheek.

Just wipe it gently with a cloth, all the time.

"... do not treat children"

"You can't help it. I'm practically over 300 years old."

"I'll get back to it. What if the shield of 'Armed Auga' has the same ability as that 'King's Ride (Road)'... So Yuki says' Armed Auga 'has' Sanctuary Church 'involved?

"Oh. That's why I want to look into it. If the shield is an ancient object, or a replica of it, I want to keep track of the information."

"I see. I'm convinced."

Odette nodded with a serious face.

Looks like you figured it out.

".................. but it's a hassle"

"Why are you sighing there?"

"I hate it." The Church of the Sanctuary. "

"Naturally. You lost your life because of them. It's natural to hate and hate."

'Cause they don't. They don't know.'

"I don't know, is it?

"Oh. If they're serious, humans should be undergoing a great evolution by now."

"... Huh?

Odette has a pompous face.

You should explain.

"You told me about the village I was in 200 years ago, didn't you?

"Yes. He said the village you ruled was very rich and excellent"

"Iris and Rhodelia from the" Grail Chamber of Commerce "are saying that my reign was good in my previous life. But all I could do at the time was eliminate the hungry and the sick, crusade the demons and make the village safe."

"Didn't you also teach magic and reading and writing calculations?

"Oh, that's about it. But at the time, the" Church of the Sanctuary "had acquired" ancient magic "and a large quantity of" ancient objects ". If I wanted to, I could have improved human life at the national level."

".................. right"

"Two hundred years ago, the Church of the Sanctuary said," In an ancient legacy, the evolution of mankind! 'It was exciting. But I wasn't human. I was like, "You demon king!'" You vampire king! 'I came here to crusade. We said we were right, we lived quietly on my crusade. "

".................. ha"

"So when my memory of my previous life came back, I totally expected it. The guys at" Sanctuary Church "said that's all they looked great, so I guess they evolved human society. Now more civilization than it was 200 years ago, and it's developing doors that open automatically, dishes that even if you shut up, cook out."

Since the Baron Territory is rural, I thought the latest technology was not yet popular.

I thought if we went to the city, we'd be hanging out with normally flying carriages.

"Yet when I looked into history, it was the Great War they were playing. On the contrary, the world was screwed up. You have no idea, do you? If the descendants of the" Sanctuary Church "boss survived, grab the root and say," Hey. What are you guys thinking? Are you nuts? 'You want to hear it, normal. "

…………

"That's why I don't know and hate The Sanctuary Church..." So, Odette, why are you holding your forehead?

"That's the thing... I don't think I'm any match for you"

"I gave the" Magic Guild "a" King of Spirits Ride, "so I'm sure they'll develop a fully automated walking carriage or something in time."

"That's why I gave it to you!?

"It was hard to knock the legs out so they wouldn't get hurt."

"Maybe... why are you looking for 'King's Ride (Road)' that you are in 'Village of Fira'?

"Huh? You want it for yourself, too, right? I want to do some research personally."

"Okay."

For some reason Odette nodded. Strong.

"I understand very well. Now I know what Yuki looks like."

"So I'm going to go to the village damaged by 'Armed Auga'"

"Yeah. Let's go together."

"Together?

"I will definitely go with you. Wherever possible I will see your journey in this world. That's what I decided."

"You don't have to be in that mood. I'm not fighting Armed Auga."

"It's information-gathering, right?

"Gathering information."

"How, is it? The villagers aren't at the scene anymore, are they?

I've been thinking about it.

'Armed Auga' attacked the village livestock, the guild man said.

That means there may still be witnesses at the scene.

"I'll be out at night. Until then, rest in the inn."

"Yes, sir."

Me and Odette took the inn and decided to take a break.

And at night.

Flying in the sky again, me and Odette were coming to the village attacked by 'Armed Auga'.

Not popular around.

The village gate is broken.

Around the village there are demon-sheltered, tall walls. "Armed Auga" seems to have forcibly destroyed the gate. Although the dwelling is almost intact, the livestock shed has been thoroughly destroyed. 'Armed Auga' seems to have come here in search of food.

"Looks like all the villagers got away."

"But I'm glad there's someone left"

"I found it -" "I brought it -"

"Wow! Rrrrrr!!

There was a little puppy in front of us.

I thought I was there.

Villages like this have about one dog to collect livestock and hunt.

If the villagers have fled to many, so will the ones left behind.

"No, did you protect the villagers from 'Armed Auga'?

".................. Wanna?

If you look closely, the right leg of the puppy has a scratch.

The blood is dry, but it seems difficult to walk.

Couldn't you get away with it?

"If you want revenge on Armed Auga, I'll do my Magic Blood."

I hurt my fingertips and gave them to my puppy.

"If you lick this, you can be my user demon. If you just give me the information, I'll let you go later, but what do we do?

".................. cu"

Pelli

The puppy's tongue licked my blood.

"Wow... Oshiju-kun"

"What's your name?

'... it's been a good month, so there isn't'

"Odette, do you have any good names?

"Huh? Yeah... What about in Garm?

Slightly necked, Odette said.

"Though it's the name of the demon dog that appears in the myth"

'I like it -. Wahoo!

I think I like it.

"Garm. You remember the smell of 'Armed Auga'?

'.................. of course. Ruru!'

"Then tell me which way he escaped. And more information about him."

That's what I heard with Garm's head.
