Armed Summoners - Black Spears and the Brave Men of the Other World

Then you should thank me too.

Alexei doubted my eyes the moment I turned to the unscrupulous, but rhetorical voice I heard. The clerk's office of the goddess of war, because there were three girl dolls standing at its entrance and exit, but it wasn't in that fact that I was surprised. The girl doll is known as the Demonic Crystal doll and, according to the stories of the Phalia and others, is a combat weapon independently developed by the Kingdom of Holy Deal. Found during the peripheral area survey, they were sealed and tightly controlled deep in the holdings of the aerial capital, but somehow suddenly moved out and followed Setuna's orders.

And the Demonic Crystal Dolls, who were ordered to follow the instructions of the goddess of war, were hitting the security of this battle palace by the command of Pharia. It is possible to pass in front of the office in the course of that security. That's good. That's not the problem. The problem is that the whole demonic crystal doll, the atmosphere of the individual who was certainly named Al, was changing. It's not just the atmosphere. Her hair stained from gray to flaming crimson and both eyes glowed golden. In the meantime, the lady servant is wearing clothes that are so harrowing and even evil that she has a good air.

"... Azmaria"

When Alexei finally opened her mouth with her thoughts, the bright red haired Demon Crystal doll nodded to Eagle Deep. The arrogance, the unsatisfaction, of the manoeuvre was his well-known demon himself. It will be more than sixty years before the Red Devil Azmaria-Altemax visited Lyohan. Then for more than a decade, the devil leaned his whole spirit towards teaching one of the Lyohans the art of armed summoning, and her incense and four beloved will be known to the world as the Great Summoner. It goes without saying that one of them is his beloved wife, Fariah-Valdish.

Alexei was very opposed to Faria mentoring Azmaria. Azmaria had all the bad rumors. They must be like demons and reapers, such as demons who wander the world unchanged for hundreds of years. Everyone should have thought so, and Alexei's reaction can be described as commonplace.

"How are you comfortable with the Devil's Crystal dolls?

"It's not bad. At least it's easier than turning on the human body."

Thus, the demonic crystal doll, transformed into a container of Azmarian souls, jumped pimply. Each time, there is so much shock that I think the floor of the battle palace could be decided, but she doesn't even look like she cared.

"The doll has no soul. You never try to take over my consciousness."

"... Miriam, you..."

Alexei looked at Miriam with surprised eyes. Miriam has a distant eye. Maybe it's a far nostalgic story for her. It was more than a decade ago that Miriam became Azmarian subordinate. Then I don't know how long she's been resisting demons. But it was undisputed that it was a long time ago, as far back as Miriam was supposed to be.

"I fought a lot, too."

"I had a hard time convincing Miriam. Well, naturally."

"It would be obvious. You killed Merricks. Whatever the reason, the fact is unshakable."

"I don't deny it. Facts are facts. But the truth is one."

"... the truth"

Alexei hears and knows from Miriam what that means.

It's about the real reason Azmaria murdered Mericus-Aslalia. Miriam still has no strong resentment towards Azmaria, probably because she was told the truth and believed in it. That meant that it was enough to believe without a token. And it is for that reason that Miriam became, but remained, Azmarian's subordinate.

Of course, Miriam didn't completely forgive Azmaria for Merricks. She still loves Merricks, and has no choice but to remain obsessed with Azmaria, who has failed to find an alternative to killing the one she loves. Even if it was the absolute only means of salvation.

Alexei also thought and believed that until she heard the story from Miriam, hatred for Azmaria would never go away. He was the beloved husband of his beloved daughter and the beloved father for his granddaughter. Even for him, Merricks was never a bad man. Even though it took my beloved daughter's heart away, I'm pretty sure she was a man enough for it. Who can forgive what killed him like that?

There's no way I can.

Yes, I was thinking.

But if we know the truth, we have to change that idea.

Merricks said he was suffering from albinism.

Albinism, once it develops, has no help to save it. At least, even Malik, the god, can't even stop albinism from progressing. There is no other god that can do that but pronounce divine authority, which is the cause of albinism.

At the beginning of hearing the story from Miriam, Alexei wondered if it was a falsehood Azmaria had made to convince Miriam, and asked about it, which apparently was not the case. Miriam knew there was a whitened part of Merrick's flesh. And I also knew the fact that its whitening site was getting bigger by the day. But I didn't know what it was, nor did Merricks himself.

Azmaria summoned Merricks from different worlds.

That was not to be taken again, but to be the next flesh of Azmaria. Azmaria says she has been living by taking over the flesh for centuries. He switched from an old flesh to a young, tough flesh, and came across for a long time. Until then, Azmaria, who flew around the world and looked for excellent flesh, realized that it was too inefficient to do so, suggested the sum. If you can't find a good physical owner, you just have to grow it from scratch. With that in mind, she summoned Merricks more than the rest of the world and educated him as an armed summoner in Lyohan.

Armed summoners require not only skill and skill as surgeons, but also physical ability as warriors. In an extremely demanding workout, Merricks grew to be called the highest armed summoner of his time. It means that things were carried as Azmaria thought.

And on that day, more than a decade ago, Azmaria visited Lyohan in order to receive Merricks' flesh.

Merricks did not resist contact with Azmaria. But the divine authority in Merricks stripped his fangs. Azmaria, who saw Merricus turned into a half divine man, decided to renounce Merricus as a subordinate, as well as destroy Merricus. Azmaria called for gestures by the Gate of Vermilion to destroy Merricus the Divine Man, but the armed summoners of Lyohan saw it and misunderstood it to be a representation of the Devil's nature. It would also be natural to misunderstand.

Azmaria poured out her whole spirit to destroy Merricks and did not even try to solve the misunderstanding. Instead, he even tried to eliminate the armed summoners who attacked the gestures from Mizu as being out of the way. As a result, the misunderstanding was misleading, until an armed summoner during Lyohan regarded Azmaria as his enemy. Even those who were high brothers of Azmaria defined Azmaria as their enemy, and attacked them. Even after the war, the misunderstanding was inscribed on Lyohan as a deeper and more complex resentment.

That is the truth about the disaster that struck Lyohan that day.

Had it been found that albinism was widespread and divine, Azmaria's decision to do so would not have been understandable or convincing, but even if it had been cited as such at the time, Lyohan's man would not have trusted him as one.

"Enough about that."

Miriam said, shaking it off.

"Miriam."

"Thank you, Mr. Azmaria, for your cooperation in Faria's journey."

"... you are absolutely right. Thank you, demon."

"Well, here's what I should be thanking you for."

"What do you mean?

"Faria... that girl is the support of Setuna's heart"

To Azmaria's unexpected remarks, Alexei looked at Miriam face to face. Alexei and Miriam pushed Faria's back because they know that Faria's heart support is Setuna. This would mean that we pushed this plan from the exact opposite point of view of Azmaria.

"And Setuna is the only hope of saving this world. Only the user of the black spear, or the protector of the Demon King's wand, can destroy the evil that nests in this world. I can fulfill my purpose."

Azmaria made sure to look out for the other side of the south. Not at all visible from this room, but the ark with Setuna and the others took Lyohan far away

"He must be asked to fight through to the end. Whatever despair awaits us, we don't need you to stop. Even if you've lost everything, broken your heart, lost sight of the purpose of living, your hopes, you must give up."

"Faria will support Lord Setuna not to be," he said. You know what? "

"It would have been easiest if I had, but apparently I can't."

"Things you don't even think about."

When Miriam smiled bitterly, Azmaria frowned as troubled. It must be in the business of Azmaria's mighty power that the expression of the Demonic Crystal Doll, which shouldn't change, moves. Azmaria had even transformed the appearance of a man who had become an ancestor by his magic. That's why Azmaria was known for hundreds of years as a monster that didn't grow old, and became known as a demon, etc. I guess it's as easy as changing the look on the face of a Demonic Crystal doll.

"I'm serious..."

"Then I'm in trouble."

"Trouble?"

"Because it's better to have one or fewer of Faria's lovers"

"Is that what you mean? Don't be presumptuous. It's love for that girl that makes up the majority of his heart."

I gave Miriam a relieved look on Azmarian's words. It's also a pleasure for Alexei. I hear stories of a lot of women around Setuna admiring him. That's why Alexei plotted to link him to her because of her granddaughter's happiness, and if she finds out that the struggle won't be in vain, let's also appease her.

"Well, it's time for me to go"

"To Lord Setuna, is it?

"No. Sooner or later, it will, but that's not how it works right now. I have a few things to do."

So, when Azmaria turned her back on this one, she held one hand. When I wonder if ripples have spread in the void, a large wooden gate emerges. It would be the Azmarian Summoning Armed Gate of Vermillion. When the gates opened, there was a view of the town that I had never seen before.

"Alexei"

"Yes?"

"I sincerely thank Faria for supporting my disciple over the years, as a mentor. Thanks."

Azmaria disappeared to the other side of the gate, just saying so. Only the red-haired Demon Crystal doll dives through the gate, and the gate itself disappears. The two remaining Demon Crystal dolls wore their little necks as if they didn't know what had happened.

Alexei was just stunned.

It was unimaginable or unthinkable for Azmaria to come to terms with his wife.

But on second thought, it could have been natural.

Faria-Baldish was one of Azmaria's four high brothers and the person who Azmaria drowned the talent.

Even though his beloved disciple had fulfilled his tenseu by so long, there was no way he could not be saddened that he was dead.

Even Azmaria, who is afraid of the Red Devil, had a human heart, I suppose.

"Azmaria doesn't regret taking Merricks' life. I had to, so I did, and that one said, and I guess that's the idea of that one. But that's not why I wasn't sad"

"Miriam......"

"I touched the heart of that one. In the heart of one little one, squatting at the bottom of the dark, unconscious and deep"

Miriam, with a terribly sad look, was watching the void without Azmaria.

"If you tour the world for hundreds of years and know the true feelings of a monster yet a feared demon, you won't even be able to say a grudge. And then, if Merricks is left behind, it's an indisputable fact that he did Riohan harm."

Nevertheless, the complex thought that it was not necessarily divisible was revealed in Miriam's expression.

That's the same for Alexei.

Humans are not convenient enough to break everything apart.
