Yomigaeri no Maou

And it was a silver wolf, an amazing size, that was there when the hawk wrapped gradually cleared up.

The furrows seem even softer, but it is understandable only by their appearance that sharp fangs, if you look at the mouth, have claws on their feet that even look like blades and would boast considerable strength if they fought.

"Alright, it's perfect!

Because you made sure you were well transformed, or that's what Kyou says and holds his fist.

I guess that means that that giant, graceful silver wolf is the puppy that existed there until earlier, the hookah.

To the sudden events, Lulu and Illis still can't block their open mouths.

But you can't keep your mouth shut forever, and first Iris opened his mouth.

"Brother... this is..."

"Oh... that's awesome"

The puppy is huge, that's not what it looks like when it changes to a giant wolf that looks like four or five meters.

Besides, I've always been accustomed to thinking he's just a smart puppy, and if the hookah turns out that way, it's something you can't help but be surprised at.

But that didn't seem to be what Illis was trying to say.

"No, brother. No, that's it, it's not... don't you feel it?

"Huh?"

That's what Iris said and stared at Fuuka.

I thought about what I wanted to say and once again I concentrated my consciousness on the huka and I realized there were surprisingly, indescribably quiet signs that normal animals shouldn't feel.

"... this is... no way"

To Lulu's voice, Illis nodded and replied quietly to whine.

"That, no way. This power is nothing but holy chi."

Tension runs on the two bodies.

Holy Qi, because it used to be a natural enemy to the Demons.

◆ ◇ ◆ ◇ ◆

"Uh, that's because Fuuka is the Holy Beast. Hey."

When Kyou answers that as if it were nothing, Lulu and Illis loosen the tension they were feeling in their bodies.

From Kyou's point of view, the Holy Beast in particular is not a special creature, it is even such an atmosphere as to what is strange to have with it.

From the feeling of the Lulu's, it is the realization that the Holy Beast is a special creature that is rare and rarely seen, but it does not seem so for Kyou.

Ever since I met this girl, when she's changed, I've come to think she's a strange daughter, but she's come here and that oddity is reaching its limits.

A traveler from the east, a girl who wore strange martial arts, took the Holy Beast with her, went hungry and was down.

The singularity of its existence can be noticed simply by arranging its elements, but if we think about this in a unified way, it may be that the girl is special, rather than her hometown is special.

It's just a hypothesis, but in her hometown, I guess it's not uncommon to have a holy beast like her.

So Kyou didn't particularly touch on the Holy Beast, and I guess he doesn't wonder.

If it's true, I just want to ask you more here and ask you a lot, but there's something that Lulu and I have to do right now.

The question can be asked at any time, so that, for the time being, switches heads in an attempt to serve its present purpose.

I just have a little problem with that, considering.

I guess Kyou had Fuuka transformed with the intention of riding the three of us to chase a wagon that disappeared west, but Fuuka is a holy beast.

After all, Fuuka is always holy, and Lulu is physically tough for Illis to ride anyway.

"... Illis. You think you can ride a hookah?

Just in case Lulu asks, Illis replied.

"No...... I'm sure you can't. Now that your brother has built a wall of magic, I don't feel any particular danger of extinction, but I don't know what will happen if I touch it directly. When this happens... I hate that I'm a demon."

He still can't.

Will I have to look for another way?

With the whisper as Iris that way, Kyou,

"What did you want to do?

I've asked, so I've decided to be honest with you about the problems with the way she's going to propose.

"You want me to tell you that Kyou should just take the hookah, right?

"Isn't that right? The hookah is fast, isn't it? But once transformed, it only lasts 24 hours. Plus, there's the difficulty of not being able to transform in the next month... Well, this is a day trip and there won't be any problems."

There was an unexpected problem.

Holy Beast, does this mean that you can only maintain this majestic appearance for a certain time?

So you've never seen much of Lulu or Illis?

Tons of questions come to my mind as I talk to Kyou.

But leave that alone for now and shake off the doubt that we have to talk about Illis.

"Kyou, there's actually a problem with that method."

"Ha? What is the problem..."

"Illis, I can't ride... physiologically, it's not very compatible with Holiness. It's because there's so much magic, it's a subtle thing about what it is..."

That said, I see a little more of Illis.

I'm not lying, and it would be good.

I'm just not saying it's because I'm an ancient demon.

Kyou didn't seem particularly concerned about the subtle representations around it, he just said unfortunately.

"Huh!? I don't know... I thought it would help, but it's terrible..."

Kyou and Fuuka for their hard work.

In particular, I am very sorry for the hookah that I will not be able to transform for as long as the next month once it is back, but this is a story that cannot be helped.

I rode the hookah and the iris disappeared, then I can't.

But Kyou couldn't seem to give up, he roared hmm for a while, then pounded his left hand palm with his right fist, and said.

"I don't feel holy!

"What if I can't?

As Lulu tilted his neck, Kyou looked toward Huuka and said:

"Fuuka! You're going to catch your holy temper!

and.

I thought Lulu could do that.

The Holy Beast is ecstatic in its nature, because he didn't think it was something he could consciously come and go in.

But reality is not what it expected, and gradually the holy spirit, which had softly covered the body of the hookah, diminished, and at the end of the day completely vanished.

"If this! This would help, wouldn't it!? Hey!?"

Please, but Kyou is approaching with his hands together just saying.

to that much sword curtain, Lulu glimpsed back at Iris,

"... what do you say?

Confirmed.

Then Iris did his hand across Lulu's created wall of magic, and then,

"If this is... it looks fine. Mind if I touch Mr. Fuuka for a little while?

When asked so, Fuuka lowered her head and looked in front of Illis before Kyou nodded.

Iris gently hands close, frightened, but firmly touches its nose tip.

And

"... nothing seems to be wrong. Magic power, and I don't feel a decrease in existence either. If this... you can ride"

to Ilis, who nodded with a smile, Kyou,

"Well done! Well done, Fuuka!

Long live, I said.

Then Lulu and the others interrupted Fuuka's back and chased the carriage that said he had gone west.

◆ ◇ ◆ ◇ ◆

Huka's back was extremely comfortable and cozy.

The silver fur is soft, fuzzy, and feels good enough to fall asleep when distracted.

"Don't fall asleep. - Go to sleep!

And maybe I would have really slept if Kyou hadn't told me once in a while.

If you ask, she herself would fall asleep a lot, and the temptation snorted deeply that she could understand well.

How long has it been since that happened?

As the sun fell and the sky stained red, the Lulu reached one village.

It is probably nearly a hundred kilometers away from Desierto, the king's capital.

We passed several villages by the time we got here, but stopped to say that this was suspicious because for a small village far from the king's capital, we felt an unnaturally large magical reaction.

At least, a degree of magic that wouldn't have been this much magic if it hadn't been for more than ten adventurers.

Maybe it's just that we can't assume that there's some kind of request around this village, which brings together a large number of adventurers, but the assumption turned out to be pointless when we actually went inside the village and found six carriages.

If you check the model of the carriage, you can understand that it matches the "suspicious carriage” you were asking Chiffon about.

I also had a good view of the luggage loaded inside, but this is still consistent.

Definitely here, and decided to move on to action.

Ask Ilis to go get Kyou and Fuuka, who waited outside the village without solving the transformation, and Lulu decides to take a look at the inn in the meantime.

The fact that the carriage is stopped in the village would mean that it is staying in the inn.

That's what I think, I go to an inn with only one house in the village and take a peek inside.

I killed as many footsteps as I could and peered slowly through the window.

However,

"... weird. You're not here."

I took a few peeks into the inn room, but although I have a few guests, I don't see the adventurers, knights around twenty.

The inn is the only place I can stay, and if I'm staying in this village, I'll have to stay in this inn.

The magic is certainly full of this village, and it should definitely be in this village.

However, the amount is a little too large, and it is a little difficult to sense the exact location with magic.

Even if we are certain that we are in this village, where the hell are we...

Leaning his neck at that thought, Hookah and Kyou, who looked like they had untied their transformation after a while, came with Iris.

They seem to be in a hurry, but their footsteps make them feel almost unheard and highly hidden.

Kyou's profession, Miko, keeps not knowing what the hell he is, but he decided to leave it for now, and Lulu invited them both and one.

"Did you find it?

That's what Iris asked, so Lulu shook his head slowly.

"No. That doesn't seem to be in the inn... there's somewhere else to hide..."

And as I talked in, I smelled the hookah sinking in, and I walked out somewhere.

"Oh, man."

and Lulu stops, but Kyou,

"Fuuka is good at chasing people's smells, so I probably found them!

I say and get there.

Smell, but where the hell did you get it from based on that smell to follow?

Isn't it possible that just following people's smells might just be villagers?

Pointing that out, Kyou took some cloth out of his nose and said:

"I borrowed this from Claire. Yikes. The pieces of clothing Mr. Ortes was wearing…"

I see, I made Fuka remember the smell, so...

I wonder when the hell you were doing that, but now you have something to do before you hear it.

Lulu and the others followed like Cargamos in the direction of Fuuka's progress, and the place they reached was:

"... hey, this is a carriage"

Six carriages staying in the village.

And it came to pass in front of one of them, that Hucah cried out, waffles.

"You're saying that Fuuka is here, so aren't you here? … come on."

With that said, Kyou schematically enters the carriage and opens one box at a time that will contain the luggage that is inside.

"This isn't the same, this isn't the same... what are you doing? Please help us both."

When they say that and approach the carriage, Lulu feels more intense magic than when he was outside the carriage and is sure that he is here.

Apparently, the carriage itself was witnessed to cover up some of its magic.

That's why it was so hard to tell where it was happening because of the magic that filled the village.

Convinced, Lulu, like Kyou, began to fish for the carriage's luggage.

The majority of them are food and supplies, but a peek in the back reveals a number of boxes of unnatural size overlapping.

"Hey, isn't that it?

When Lulu said so, Illis and Kyou nodded,

"It's definitely suspicious over there."

"I'm too suspicious. Yikes. It's like a coffin!

I said and got to the box.

I have a bad feeling about saying things that I thought might not be a joke.

It's sealed with nails, and if it's in something like this, I don't really think it's alive, but I do feel magic.

Believing that the body would never produce magic and should be alive more than it is, Lulu opened the first box.
