Yuusha Isagi no Maou Hanashi

6-7 Visitors from the Past

"Bye, Issa."

"Shut up!

In front of the inn, Isagi yells at Eulet, waving with a pepper.

After all, don't you say there was nothing between you and the elf woman?

Isagi was dancing on her palm until the end.

He even said he thought about taking responsibility seriously once.

Eulet laughs at Isagi's remorseful face.

"But if I care about that,

That's what I was able to do by now, right?

"Shut up! Don't look at me like that!

"Isa Pippi, I'm a little too alert for girls."

"I know! Who's Isa Pippi?

To my mind, it was also Isagi's alarm that Dutu took his lips from him.

What's more, Limino did the same thing to me.

But it was really good.

If the liquor was known to be the weakness of the rabbit back then, Duteu would, anyway.

Limino would have used it in a really effective setting.

It's even possible that I've lived happily ever after in Demon King's Castle.

Tremble your body with something different from the cold.

The exhaling breath was white.

Isagi greeted the bluff.

"... Bye, Eulet. Be well."

"Yes, yes, so is Isa."

Euree feels zero like sparing her goodbyes.

I wonder how many dozens or hundreds of adventurers have been dropped off so far. I was really familiar with it.

... If I'm not rather that naughty, I miss the rabbit more.

The girlfriend hit her in the hand.

"Oh, yeah, yeah. If I ever see you on your journey,

I need someone to tell me I'm safe. "

"Ahhh? It doesn't matter, that's about it."

"Thanks."

Eulet laughed sloppily and then told me.

"If you meet Princess Limino III,

Tell me that Eulet is safe. "

I didn't expect to hear that name here,

The reaction was delayed just a little bit.

"Huh? Oh, oh, okay"

"Uh-huh, you."

Nothing has changed to Eulet.

Instead, I don't even have a grip.

"Have a good trip.

The goddess will let everything go. "

complaining about the goddess' ordination to the extent that she was sorry,

He waves loudly, quickly becoming a cat's back and returning to the inn.

Seeing behind it, Isagi tilted her neck.

- Eulet of the Elves.

Is it a name I've heard of somewhere?

... I can't remember.

But, okay, Isagi walks out.

If you're an elf, you also know that Limino continues his lonely struggle on the Dark Continent.

It wouldn't be anything special if she knew the princess's name.

Besides, I'm sure that's what you're saying to all the adventurers.

Isagi rides the passenger carriage and goes for the next city.

On a lonely journey,

A little, I was remembering Cerdel.

The first time I met him was on the battlefield.

Edilla, the Reich has joined forces with the Dwarves to put up an eastern line of defense.

In the presence,

The Goblins rushed in from the south.

Isagi and Preah, Barizud turned to the rescue.

But the number of enemies was high, and working with Edilla's elite, Temple Knights, he couldn't push it back.

So Seldel was unleashed.

Cerdel is a human child born with immense magic.

Its magic beyond its reach was always flanked by the danger of outbursts.

In front of the surgical teacher, the then three-year-old Cerdel made him draw incredibly powerful surgical codes.

The adults feared the power.

Cerdel had drawn the code somewhere at all times.

For what he could see, he was like a demon.

Cerdel's parents were also devout goddess followers,

As the bishop said, let go of the boy.

As a result, the Seldell boy will spend time in isolation from his fifth birthday in the prison tower.

They didn't kill him because they thought he was going to have a useful day one day.

To further avoid blowing up the prison tower, he was not allowed to use witchcraft,

For ten years, I even spent my life drawing code for my magic.

The only servants who carried books and meals were friends.

He continued to learn control law there.

On the southern front, his magic was shown for the first time.

Alone, he prevented dozens of sorcerers from attacking.

It was the same degree of completion as Preah, who was younger and had obtained the status of head court magician.

Cerdel crushed his opponent with a barrier to calmness and deposition, and, after all, people feared him.

And to push the troublemaker, he joined the brave party.

Of course, Cerdel's ratings changed over the course of his journey.

In the liberated city he preached the teachings of Goddess and gave hope to everyone.

A seemingly ruthless but merciful Goddess Christian.

Only when did he become known as the use of the Edilla Empire.

The location of Lean Caterdam can be seen from afar.

Because white smoke is rising by the fire magic formation.

I can barely see the black smoke from a regular fireplace instead.

The fuel of the magic formation is the magic crystal.

The type of thing that carves directly into the body, like silent magic formations and seals,

Suck away the person's own magic to take effect.

Instead, all junction magic formations, barriers, or magic outdoor lights are activated by magic crystals.

Twenty years ago, the Edilla Empire saw the magical formation of the fireplace being pushed forward,

Only some wealthy people could still buy magic formations.

The Demon Crystal, which is treasured in various fields, has a wide range of uses, not just combat.

If you throw it into the magic formation, it's convenient enough to act as a fireplace for a few months with one shard,

Daily prices were still more expensive than burning trees.

That now seems like everyone is fine and burning a magic fireplace.

Where the hell have you taken so many Demon Crystals from?

Even if no one tells you, you can observe.

Perhaps the Demon Crystal, which occurred when the Dwarves were killed;

I guess it bribes the lives of the people by what they excavated from the Northern Demon Crystal Mine that they held.

When Isagi went to the inn and left her luggage for now, she went outside.

Lean Caterdam is covered in thick clouds and I can't see the sun for half the year.

It looked like it was going to cry.

Speaking of which, I recall the Yotai story I heard in the Adventurer's Guild.

(Preah is worshipped in the tower as a goddess... is that it?)

Lean Caterdam has two buildings representing the country.

One is the Episcopal Diocese.

And one more thing, the goddess tower.

The former is a Catholic residence and the main mountain of the goddess religion of this country.

Because it's bigger than King Edilla's royal castle.

You will see how this country is supported by godliness.

And one more thing, the goddess tower.

This is said to be where the goddess, the god of creation, planted the seeds.

So to speak, it is a sanctuary in Goddess.

The seven-story tower is not a big deal for a rabbit who is used to seeing high-rise buildings and such in modern Japan.

It's one of the tallest buildings in the world.

Through the boulevard he took his feet nearby, and Isagi looked up at the tower of the goddess.

The stone tower is gray and stands lonely and secluded as if it were a tombstone.

It wasn't even tied up. That didn't seem like a good idea to call it a goddess tower.

Is there a preha over there?

Keep your eyes peeled, reach out.

(... nothing, I don't feel it)

Pilgrims pass by the stopping sharks.

They all wear white robes with uniform leaf veins, softly from their heads.

It's a costume worn by devout Goddess followers.

The rabbit also looks back and walks out.

Probably nothing here.

Let's head to the cathedral, where Cerdel lives.

Follow the snow melted pavement path.

Along the way, I also saw some elves.

After all, they seem to stay the same as the average human race.

Elf couple walking side by side, kids running around in the meantime.

It must be forcing you to live cramped,

Still, it was an unthinkable sight in today's Slaosha continent.

Adventurer Guild's Lean Caterdam branch, went bare.

I don't need it now.

Walk like dragging a heavy sword and reach the cathedral entrance.

To the two temple knights who guarded the gate, Isagi gave him the script he had received from sorrow.

"... Cerdel, are you serious?

"Oh, it's an urgent requirement from Alliance headquarters"

"Ha."

The Temple Knight tilts his neck.

"I'm coming right now to check it out.

Come back later. "

"No, fine. I'll make you wait here.

I came here for this. "

The Temple Knight turns his gaze to his colleagues who stand beside him.

The other looked surprised.

"The Adventurer Alliance always does things without clapping...

Okay, okay, let me ask you something.

At this hour, Seldel was the West Snow Cathedral.

Wait a minute. "

"Oh, please"

Drop off one temple knight running,

Isagi waits a little further away.

In front of the diocese, about two metres of statues of goddesses are decorated on the pedestal.

A beautiful maiden with golden hair.

Surely if you look at it this way,

Sometimes you might think it looks just a little bit like Preah.

Although it would be an empty resemblance of others.

She had a cane with relief mimicking twin leaves on the tip.

Holy wand mistortine that made the world.

It is one of the sacred relics of the woman,

It is also because Goddess claims that Goddess existed.

Looking at the statue for a while and flirting with the fantasy,

An earlier temple knight came back breathless.

"Oh, thank you for waiting"

"Oh."

"Let's see, Seldell. I hear you'll see me."

In that word, a coworker peels "seriously".

The Temple Knight guides Isagi into the cathedral.

Come here, please.

"Sorry."

The Guild HQ writings given out of sorrow were really effective.

I had no idea they would let me through so badly.

Go through the cathedral hall and continue along the spacious corridor.

The light that plunged through the left and right windows intersected the cross, guiding the destination like an arch.

passing beside each of those dressed in the same manner as the pilgrims offering prayers,

He climbed a gentle slope from the wing corridor and was led to the chapel after a short walk further.

"Master Cerdel, I've brought you with me"

Beyond which the Temple Knight spoke.

Turn your back on this one, he was standing.

Man putting together a coat of law with a white based green embroidery.

A fellow we fought together twenty years ago.

The best magician in the world who once gave Alvaris his name.

Cerdel di Stradivari me Teryona.

The Temple Knight bows his head and exits.

Isagi lined up next to Cerdel.

Look up at his side looking up at the frame as he looks up to heaven.

He seemed a little old, but his appearance hadn't changed much.

He should be 38, but he's still young.

Good.

He's safe with me, really.

Relief fills the rabbit's chest.

Just satisfied with that, Isagi couldn't think of anything for a while.

In the tranquility as if the sound and emotions had been sucked into the snow that builds outside.

Cerdel slowly opened his mouth.

"Do you know what this is, Mr. Isagi"

Exactly the same voice you have in your memory.

At the end of his gaze is a single wand decorated within the frame.

Multiple magic formations are depicted on the floor.

It has a strict seal on it.

"... the Holy Cane of the Goddess, huh?

"Yeah, it's real.

Don't you think it's beautiful? "

"I don't know."

It's everywhere, it just looks like an old cane.

Is it really a magic trick?

I didn't feel any sign of that though.

So Cerdel finally looked at this one.

"I missed you. Mr. Isagi.

Would it be a goddess' pleasure to see you again? "

He has offered his hand.

"Oh...... so am I. Cerdel.

I'm so glad you're okay. "

"Yeah. But it was a long journey"

"... I've been away for twenty years and I'm sorry"

Isagi exchanges hands.

He lay his eyes down sorry.

"I'm sorry to hear about Mr. Barrys."

"... oh"

"I'm sorry I couldn't attend the funeral,"

"No..."

Cerdel was in trouble, too.

Like Balized, I guess I've been fighting.

To a harsh diocese, silence falls again.

Seldell was once a cynical boy.

That's now, it's as tattered as a saint.

What can we do to fill in the twenty years?

Cerdel speaks to a rabbit who doesn't know what words to say.

"The first time I met Cariburnus,

It was the way home from the Demon Emperor's War. "

"... Huh?

"He was fifteen at the time, lamenting his powerlessness.

That's why we helped him.

The power that can protect the world, like Mr. Isagi.

I didn't know that was gonna happen. "

"... Was it"

"Mr. Barrysd described him as a

I should have thought of you as if you were my older, separated brother.

I didn't know Mr. Barrys was going to talk to him like that...

There's still so much sadness in this world. "

……

Cerdel was praying.

Again, don't be afraid to notice.

Even if it turns out to trample the conscience of a friend I haven't seen in twenty years.

We can't just avoid the point.

For that reason, we have come to this snowy land.

To the meditating Cerdel, Isagi tells.

"Cerdel, I'm here to bring peace back to the world."

……

"Right now, the human race and the other races are in a critical relationship.

But we're still gonna make it.

Help me stop the war, Cerdel. "

"I see."

I give him a gentle nod, overlapping errands.

"... and one more thing,

It's about Livestone. "

"... from whom"

"Barrys told me he was dying to breathe."

"Was it"

Ask him to lay down his eyes.

"Is that what Cerdel made,"

"Yeah, definitely"

"Who else knows how to process it?"

"No one knows how to make Levibstone except me"

Looks like he found out what Isagi was trying to say.

"There was something wrong with that demon."

"... oh"

"Okay. But..."

Cerdel looks around.

I saw one knight coming this way.

"... here, we can't talk about that.

Let's change the date, time and place. "

"... right"

The magnificent knight kneels down to Cerdel.

"Serdell, are you sure?"

"Yeah, is it that time already"

Cerdel opened his body and introduced the knight.

"Mr. Isagi, this is my immediate Knights,

This is Johannel, one of the forty-eight apostles.

I'll let him know later. "

"Oh."

"I'm sorry to see you again."

Cerdel bowed his head small.

"I have a promise to meet people from now on.

She's an elf girl who's lost her closeness, though.

Apparently, hearing my rumors,

It's like you've come this far.

I must bless her. "

"Right..."

Seeing him like that, Isagi smiled slightly.

"... you haven't changed, Cerdel"

I remember him spending till I cut off my own meal.

He was always sarcastic, but his actions were always with cleanliness.

Cerdel, who took it, can also flatter his mouth.

"No, I've changed, Mr. Isagi.

Not anymore than back then, no.

Don't forget it. "

Such a thing would just have changed its position.

Isagi thought so and felt nostalgic for his objections.

On his return, the Temple Knight, named Johannel, handed me a letter.

"This is the visiting permit.

The date and time is in two days.

They're waiting at the goddess tower. "

"Sorry."

Receive, cut the seal immediately.

I didn't know if it was Cerdel's letter, but it does say so.

"Then I'll do it."

"Oh, thank you"

Now half the purpose is like accomplished.

It had taken me nearly a week before I actually met him when I was in Barrys.

Because it was like he was under house arrest.

Compared to that, the situation in which Cerdel is placed seems to be really healthy.

On my way home I decided to stop by the Adventurers Guild and do a little research on the current Cerdel.

Catholic Cerdel.

He is one of the brave parties and a heavy town that supported the Edilla Empire after the war.

That skill was largely exerted in political and diplomatic terms.

Unlike Preah, who left the country, or Balized, who is full of hands in the Adventurer's Guild.

Cerdel actively worked for the Edilla Empire.

He said that he had touched on various cultures during his journey and that magical formations of facilities and equipment were his ideas.

Furthermore, he is also deeply involved with the Adventurer Guild,

That attitude is not just about the Edilla Empire, but it affects the entire human race.

created a basement for adventurers to operate in the Slaosha continent because

Apparently it was also huge where I stopped by his arm.

Cerdel trusted the adventurer.

That would also be because of the strength of his ties with Barrys.

His private soldiers are the Knights known as the Forty-Eight Apostles.

They say each of them is comparable in strength to a good adventurer.

If you listen to me, you'll also see the figure of Cerdel.

I mean, he's a sober theorist with leadership.

There is also a strong pragmatism aspect that anything useful should be used.

I guess Cerdel changed back then when he was distracted from the world.

I'm sure we're working hard to make this world a better place.

As he walked away from the cathedral, Isagi saw the figure of one elf girl.

She had an invitation on her chest.

That's probably the kid who made a promise to Cerdel.

The swollen girl was headed for the cathedral on a small run, turning her nose head bright red.

The figure was as flimsy as a daughter rushing over to her father.

Is Cerdel exactly the God of salvation to her?

With this and the imagination, Isagi returns home.

I felt rewarded.

Leaving the Dark Continent, finally.

I'm so happy to finally meet my old friend, and Isagi is happy to see you again.

He would surely help himself.

... If I can help him in any way, I'm glad.

The next time you meet Cerdel, not as an agent to stop the divine disease.

As one friend, let's also talk about our journey back then.

I've killed all sorts of people,

Though I may have changed a little.

Still, I'm sure friendship won't change forever.

Isagi, yes, believed.
