Yomigaeri no Maou

It was Lottos, one of the chiefs of the ancient tribe (elves), who stood disturbed by his breath in that place where he opened the door.

I can understand why he came here.

Perhaps you've come to explain the absolute barriers.

But I didn't know why I was rushing so far.

You can do it at any time, such as explaining it, and it won't be enough that you have to do it as soon as possible.

It's ancient (elf) secret technology, so if you can explain it, you shouldn't do it.

Lulu tilted his neck thinking so.

King Leonard seems to have thought so, as did Lulu, telling the disturbed Lottos to settle down first, recommending a seat before asking.

"Lord Lottos...... what happened in such a hurry? If you are on an absolute barrier, we have already made a report saying that it has been lifted, so you have never been so hasty...?

But Lottos shook his head.

That is nothing more than to say that what he came to tell us is that the absolute barrier has been lifted.

So what are you trying to tell me?

Though intriguing, Lulu wondered if I could stay here.

Stop Lottos from trying to say something for a moment and ask questions.

"Dear Lottos. Just a moment. Can I stay here? If it is information that would be a state secret, it would be an obstacle for someone like me who is nothing more than an adventurer..."

But such Lulu's words. King Leonard said,

"... Leung (Yes). Lord Lottos, do you mind if I have this person? If what Lord Lottos is trying to tell you is something to do with the anomalies that have occurred during the Games, he may give you valuable advice."

Forgive Lulu for saying so.

Apparently, Lulu's detailed discussion of the metastasis of ancient dragons (enchanted dragons) has found value as a kind of advisor.

But with that said, I don't want to leave unless Lottos forgives me.

I waited for Lottos to say, but he said he would drink up the water placed in front of him in a breath.

"... I have heard of Lord Lulu from Yumis. He is a trustworthy man. He's a grandson who's a fancy adventurer, but he only has eyes for a long time. I'll admit I'm here. That said, I'd like you not to talk outside about what you shouldn't...?

Lulu nodded and replied to Lottos, who said so and cut the words.

"Of course. What we are going to talk about here and now, we will keep it in our hearts. Whatever it is, I don't care if you tie me up with contract magic..."

I don't want to do that if I can, but it would be important to say credit.

Besides, if you have to, Lulu can solve as much contract magic as anyone else has done.

That's why it's the word that came out.

You wouldn't have figured that out, but Lottos utters words that are harder to betray than contract magic.

"No, not at all... Lord Lulu. Let me trust you to talk..."

Trust, as for Lulu, I feel that this cannot be betrayed.

It would be easier if they told me to tie this up with contract magic, but I can't help what they said.

Lulu nodded and urged Lottos ahead.

"Well... a while back, I discovered an absolute barrier generator. In one of the rooms in the arena - even so, the room where we had the absolute barrier generator - we were made difficult to find through a number of covert magic tricks, but I think you've already heard that it was worth looking for in our ancient (elf) outpost and that we were able to discover and disarm it."

"Right. Thanks to the early handling of the ancient tribes (elves), the audience was able to get home without falling into chaos... but what's wrong with that?

A king who tilts his neck.

In contrast, Lottos told him with a face that looked serious.

"That was... the absolute removal of the barrier itself... the device."

"... the device?

One, it's gone.

It was a suggestion of their technological spill, and the king opened his eyes to the report.

"Is that... are you sure? I don't know where to look..."

"It's an ancient (elf) outfit, I looked for it without a neighborhood, but it's nowhere. In the first place, after all, the location of the device itself was not moving. Example day - I also called back all the traps that were unlocked the day the incredible intruder arrived, but there was no sign that it had been destroyed, and there was no way I could bring it up..."

Lottos contemplates, as if he had seen an extremely strange phenomenon.

In fact, if I asked for an overview of the trap, there seemed to be no other way to break into the place than to disarm it.

For once, there seemed to be signs of disarming and breaking and entering during the battle between Lulu and Iris, but by then nothing had been stolen and he said that he had re-trapped him again shortly afterwards.

I mean, it shouldn't have been possible to steal the device.

But the reality is one, the device is gone.

One conclusion this shows, Lottos said, biting his teeth but having to put it to his mouth.

"… perhaps there is a traitor among our ancient tribes (elves), there is nothing else to think of. Only our ancient tribes (elves) who registered their inherent magic beforehand can get through without breaking the trap"

"It's..."

The king frowned as troubled as well.

I thought there was no doubt about the ancient people (elves), but it seems so.

Lottos will probably have some pretty nasty stuff too.

As one who stands above man, there is something that cuts his heart to say the betrayal of those below him.

I just can't possibly not pursue it because of that.

Stolen is an ancient (elf) technique that the Ancient (elf) defended themselves against, so it is not to be said that it pursues responsibility directly as the kingdom of Leonard, but nevertheless it may hit a hostile act that creates a powerful enemy.

So the king asked.

"Do you have any idea about that traitor?

"No, that's... the truth, I sincerely say, there isn't at all... These are the ones who have been carefully selected and judged by the Ancients (Elves) with no problems about their nature or abilities. There can be no betrayal. That's honestly..."

"But that being said, we have to look for the killer more than we can actually just assume someone has betrayed us for sure. Do you really not have any idea?

……

In the pursuit of King Leonard, Lottos gradually blues his expression and becomes smaller.

I can understand your feelings.

There is a situation where you are certain that there will be no traitors or anything else.

We need to find the killer somehow.

I know.

But nothing can be done.

Lottos had no more words to speak.

But Lulu thought.

So I interrupt the conversation between the two of them and say.

"I've thought a little bit about it, so can I say it?

It was both Lottos and the King who looked like they were helped by the words.

I want lube for the story somehow, Lottos, I guess I felt Lulu's words were going to be a good cushion for a king who didn't like it and blame him for it.

But what Lulu said was not about the cushions, but rather the words that poked at the core.

"Let me say that I believe I have been forgiven… this time I have not betrayed the ancient peoples (elves)"

The word surprised me most was Lottos.

That's supposed to be the happiest word, but they just sounded rested because they take reality seriously.

"I don't think so. Whatever you think, if the Ancients (Elves) don't cooperate, it won't be this time. Lord Lulu, don't worry about Non, but you can be very clear about the facts..."

The tone seemed very tired and sick.

On second thought, no, even if you don't think about it, Lulu is the number one contestant in the martial arts tournament who has strained the Ancients (Elves).

I remember that, and I'm starting to feel like I have to give back around here.

So Lulu decides to change the angle slightly to make it easier for Lottos to accept.

"Lord Lottos, do you know why the ancient dragon (Enchanted Dragon) appeared this time?

Lottos, too, seems to be able to regain a sober look when it comes to stories like this.

He becomes a thoughtful face, and he's got his thoughts together, he says.

"Hmmm... I'm wondering if it's probably metastatic magic. However, those who can handle such things… have not even seen the long-lived Ancient Clan (Elf), Noh, for centuries. Whether it is possible to do so…"

He had predictions with him, too, apparently.

That said, if you understand that much, it was easy for Lulu to talk too.

Lulu exchanged his gaze with the king and asked if I could talk to him earlier, and he nodded, so he told Lottos.

"Lord Lottos. Actually..."

Speaking of the fact that it was probably the Virgin who used metastatic witchcraft, which Lulu confirmed with that technique, he opened his eyes and was surprised, demanding water again, and drank it up for a breath, then Lottos said.

"Oh my goodness again... that's something you should probably use. Besides, Lord Lulu and the Virgin... both of them. But then..."

Gradually, Lottos also seemed to be back in his thinking skills, and he was no longer the pale face he had earlier hastily cut.

That's why Lulu said.

The most important words.

"Yep... Metastatic magic is almost useless magic, but it's similar magic, and one very dangerous thing if used in a case like this one, don't you think?

and.

To the words, Lottos and the king thought a little, then slapped him on the knee to say whether he had arrived at one answer.

"I see... that's psychic magic, huh? It's Lulu."

"Exactly. The magic is considered to be a magic that cannot be found in modern times…"

It was a fact in ancient times that many things could be done if they were to be cultivated.

But it's hard to think first of all that there are such users in the modern era.

Because it is assumed that long-term brainwashing by psycho-magic is not possible in modern times.

But in reality, there were those who could use metastatic magic.

It wasn't strange to have advanced users who could also use about psychic magic as the legend tells us.

And it's never unlikely that it's the Virgin either.

In view of the circumstances, it seems rather a good story to say that she is almost certainly the one.

And if so......

"Psychomagic... it was a blind spot. But if that's the case... there is certainly no traitor in the ancient clan (elves)... but someone could be manipulating the spirit by witchcraft..."

To that word of Lottos, King Leonard says in a difficult face.

"Hmm... Lord Lottos himself could be manipulated..."

Lottos was hinted at the possibility that he was becoming a traitor before he knew it, opened his eyes, but soon realized it was the right point to make, he said.

"... but you're going to be completely unaware of it yourself, then. Is Noon a traitor...?

What's going on, and the two of us with our heads on the newly emerging issues.

Lulu looks at it, thinks.

Lulu can be psycho-witchcrafted, diagnosed or disarmed.

In the past, it was a necessary technique, so we're wearing it.

To mention that is like confessing that I can also use psychic magic if I want to use it again, which as a lululu is very attentive.

But here, I felt it would have serious repercussions later to say that I would not tell you this.

Later, when the matter is exposed due to some circumstances, it is also horrible to be repulsed.

Besides, I had the feeling that I would have to return the favor to Lottos in the first place, or liquidate the inconvenience I caused.

So, Lulu said.

"... Um"

To such a lull,

"What?

"What?

The King and Lottos say at the same time.

Lulu, unsubstantiated to think that it might be all right, was prepared to say so.

"I can diagnose psycho-magic and disarm it if it occurs."

There was no need to say that they were surprised by the words.
