The Road to One Day Be the Strongest

Sum Country.

Long ago, a certain patron god existed in this country created by one stray man.

Have all the kings of your history established friendly relations with this patron god, and that is the same thing for the modern king?

Although.

"As a matter of fact, I recently lost contact with that patron saint."

That's what she said.

I frown unexpectedly at the words. [M]

It was recently that I lost contact with the Patronus. And that fake showed up again recently.... too well timed.

"Is that patron god strong?

That's what I told her.

Then she shook her head sideways with a boom and wondered if it wasn't strong enough for me.

"It's not on the level of being strong! I've had many training opponents since I graduated from school too, but honestly that strength is enough to keep me from losing!

I narrowed my eyes to the words. [M]

'For once, it's true. The patron saint of this country is a DEUS monster. It is true that we are far stronger than the Holy Beast. "

Chloe's words echo in my head.

No, I don't doubt it. That Smeragi, who is nothing else, has been consulting with me knowing that he would cause me trouble, and I don't think it would be such an easy request.

"Besides, I've sent people to the investigation a few times now... I've lost contact with all of them and I'm still in a state of unclear information"

"... I see"

The guys who went to that investigation - to my mind, they're all already dead.

We have lost contact with the Deus-class patron saint, and everyone who went there has lost their word.

Then there will be a limited number of things to think about.

"Is there a monster waiting to slaughter Deus... or is his patron god being manipulated?"

To the words, Mr. Smeragi nodded heavily.

"It's a request I don't want to ask Master Ginn if it's meant to be... but there's only one person in this country who seems to be able to make that request for how many minutes -"

Moments later, Mr. Smeragi's gaze turned to Kuse, who was near me, and silence descended between us.

Though...

"I want to marry Master Ginn! Please, if you do a favor to someone like this, they'll make me marry this guy!

"He's like this!?"

Kuse's roar roared, and I shook my head at the words.

"No, I'm sorry, but you're not gonna marry me, are you? Keep up the momentum and you'll be king of this country.

"Ugh... well, if they say so..."

Was my word a star, Mr. Smeragi, who chewed on his face like a bitter bug?

Though...

"Anyway, I came to ask for it from the executive branch. You can't just say no."

That's what I said and got up from the chair.

When I rang my fingers with my pussy, at the same time, the light wrapped around my body, and at the next moment, the armor of a circular ring dragon wrapped around my body.

I said this with a grin. [M]

"Admitted. The request, the enforcement agency will take care of it."

- Spirit Peak.

There is a mountain in the kingdom of Sum called that.

At the foot of the mountain is made a royal palace, which is not a royal castle, and must pass through the royal palace to enter it?

That it's a total hassle mechanism.

For that reason, I was climbing the staircase of the birdhouse after going through the royal palace.

Blue bamboo groves spread around.

If you look up, a nice red birdhouse with a mixture of black continues all the way to the far end, and if you turn your gaze to the side, you can see a red lantern with a black stain on the roof.

That shrine I once went on a school trip. That was what Mr. Smeragi said about 'fake', but I see. Is this what you mean by real? It's a sight I can't help but think so.

In the meantime, when I stop, there are many footsteps that stop with it.

I looked behind my back like I was scared.

"Why are you guys here?"

There, Kuse party headed by Kuse was in line.

They're pretty nervous face-to-face with their hands on weapons, whether they know this is a bee request or not, but blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah. That's not the problem.

"Were you listening? This is a request I took, isn't it? Tell me that's all so cool, 'OK' or something. What, are you even here to interrupt?

"Ha... there's no way I'm going to do that"

Kuse answered my words. [M]

Then he turned his gaze to Rin.

"Rin's ability is to round out your ability to be your brother. All I get is the ability to see once...... You don't have to tell me the rest, you know?

I feel sorry for myself for not having to be really told.

I mean, it's you, right?

"I mean, did you guys come to my game to fight Deus from now on?"

"I mean. Nothing. As far as I'm concerned, I can help you, okay?

Kuse said that just in return earlier.

I know you want thoughts like "Hmm, or something like that" anyway - I'm sorry to hear that, Dragon Horse Kuse.

"Oh yeah? Then I'm playing in the back, so Kuse will attack alone."

"Oh!?"

I guess it wasn't what I thought. Kuse makes such a dumb voice. It's because you've been provoking me in my area of expertise.

As he went up the stairs, thinking seriously about pushing him against Kuse, he began to see a huge birdhouse up there. Perhaps that's the goal.

"Well, let's go."

That's what I said.

That's when...

"Gyaaaaaaaaaaaaaooooooo!"

Such a roar echoes around me, and I summon the arms of everlasting darkness in the storm that suddenly flies.

However, it was still the current situation to be pushed in.

"Grr..., what the hell..."

As soon as that happened, the sound of a 'rink' and a bell rang around me, and by the time I realized it already existed, a giant fox in front of me.

"Nha!?"

I didn't realize.

This is me simultaneously activating the demonic eye and the spatial grasp.

Its giant fox, who manages to stand on the spot using the horizontal width of the stairs, swayed its nine tails loosely, yet wiggled his arms in front of mine.

- It doesn't taste good!

When I judged it so, I let out the magic in my body.

"'Unbroken Shield (Overshell)'!"

In a moment, a black transparent shield was summoned to my front, and at the same time a clash sounded around me.

That blow, far more intense than earlier.

I shouted Kuse's name as I stuck my hands forward and suppressed the shield.

"Kuse!"

"I know!

Slip through my side and dive under the belly of the fox in a flowing motion.

"Ha!"

- Flash.

At some point it was a familiar black knife that had been summoned into his hands. The knife left a black trajectory in the air, but - it cut the sky.

"What!?

I guess you thought Kuse "too" had been decided. That's why I was confused by the way the fox disappeared from the spot without leaving any dust.

"Lynn."

The bell sounded, and when we realized it, we stood in an unrecognizable place.

"This is..."

Kuse and I are the only ones here.

There was a large square surrounded by bamboo groves, 'shrines' in a nutshell, and such an atmospheric space.

"Oh, hey! Where did they all go?!?"

Kuse screams.

But all I come back with is silence.

And...

"Whoa... what a troublesome looking patron god"

That said, I turned my gaze in the direction of the company.

Ahead exists a company made of two colors, red and black, in front of it - the appearance of an earlier fox.

"Gurrrrrrrrruuu......"

As you can see from the feeling I fought earlier, this guy is definitely DEUS. It's the same as Grace three years ago...... or more.

On top of that, I'm going to use an unidentified, nasty ability.

"Ha... like Grace's ability, I wish I could spot it with this eye"

That's what I'm going to do.

At the moment, I'm still stronger than Kuse. Besides, I'm not even weak enough to delay this much.

That's why I transformed my body into that of the Shadow God and stomped on the ground.

But...

"Hey, you're not gonna fight alone, are you?

There's one next to me.

There, Kuse stood with a knife on his shoulder, and I laughed bitterly when I saw him.

Though...

"No way, you fight too?

"That's right, you idiot"

Moment after moment, I opened my eyes unexpectedly to the change I had visited Kuse's body.

"" Homurakami ""

Moments, just like my abilities, his body changes from foot to foot.

Less than a few seconds later, the change lurked into existence, and then all that remained was - the appearance of Kuse releasing his enthusiasm.

The body has changed to blue, black, and two-color dressing, inspired by flames, and the intimidation felt from its appearance is not the same as before.

"You're the only one growing up. Don't you think? There's no way I'm not catching up with you."

Yes, Kuse said that confidently.

From that appearance, I couldn't see the weakness I saw in the inn, and I unwittingly loosened my cheeks.

- I see, I can hardly rely on this.

When I called the Eclipse in Crucifix mode, I said this on my shoulder.

"At best, don't pull your leg, hero."

"Ugh, you're not the one pulling the leg, hero."

So we rushed out to the Fox of Nine Tails.
