A month after practicing the thunder of the Divine Beast.
We were training to make each of our powers our own.
Reefa and Neea are trained to make their power as Rijuana their own.
I am the thunderbolt of the Divine Beast and the strengthening of my own fighting power.
We were on a routine of training while doing our quest as adventurers, but all of a sudden we were called to the castle.
We found the base of the Demon King's Army.
!?
I am stunned by what Jessica said to us when we were summoned into the hall.
I only exchanged reports, but I knew she was busy.
I had a feeling it was important at the time that Master Jessica bothered to call us, but I didn't know we found out where the Demon King's Army was based...
"Dear Jessica, when it comes to base..."
"Nea's testimony narrowed down the location of a small base of activity, but this time you said you narrowed down the location of the base where the Demon King himself is."
"Demon King...!?"
I'm surprised to hear that it turns out where the Demon King himself is, not just us, but even Nia, a former Demon King's Army executive.
"Oh, I found that disgusting son of a bitch!?"
"Nea, verbal"
"Oh, I'm sorry...... no, I'm not a kid!?"
You shouldn't use dirty words because you look like a child.
Turn your consciousness to Master Jessica's story while paying attention to Nea.
"I don't know exactly where the Demon King is."
"When it comes to…"
"So you've narrowed down the base where the demon king is thought to be. I hear there's a demon king in one of them."
"Can't you narrow it down to one?"
Jessica gives me a bitter look on my question.
"It's probably a ploy on the part of the Demon King's Army... they're making it look like the Demon King is there in some way. I don't care if you think there will be demon kings at the same time in three places that are dotted far away."
"... Demon King, the effect of your specialty's magic tricks."
That's a pain in the ass.
Worst case scenario, there is no demon king anywhere.
On the other hand, narrowing down the base where the Demon King is located is also a major advance.
"A simultaneous attack after all?"
"... that's actually quick... ha"
Master Jessica zeroes a tired sigh.
Reefa's right, we're just talking about tapping those three places at once.
Can't you do that?
"It seems that St. Real sees this as a good opportunity to defeat the Demon King's Army, but at the same time, he sees it as a trap."
"... Oh, you know what? Do you feel that being narrowed down is a demon king's army trap in itself, and you attack down where you've become thin while you're at war..."
"I'm pretty sure. So there's only so much power to attack. Countries, including Hendil, must leave enough force behind to defend themselves."
My head hurts......
That's right, it's important to defeat the Demon King, but people are more important than that.
"In addition to that, if you move a large army, you're likely to be distracted. It is a small number of people and the equivalent of a gold adventurer. … you know why I summoned you so far?"
"… that we will attack the base where the Demon King may be?"
"That sort of thing. It's a rough operation to gather the brave men in the vicinity of the three existing bases and raid them at the same time."
... teaming up with brave men...?
By nearby, you mean Chisato might join us?
... I don't know, I also feel in my hands that move the brave conveniently, but it's not a funny story.
"So where is the country near the confirmed base?"
Reefa asks Master Jessica that.
"The kingdom of Maiden, the kingdom of Lymard, the kingdom of Vingle."
"When it comes to vingle..."
"It must have been a country with Sarah and Io"
The name of the kingdom of Vingle sounds familiar, although I am not familiar with the two countries of Maiden and Lymard.
It should have been a country where Mr. Saila, the brave man we met in St. Real, and his squire, Mr. Io.
"You're supposed to be heading to the kingdom of Vingle, so it's a little far away, but the other two countries are a mild and half-moon away, so it feels a little better."
Send the Reefers, the brave ones, because they can't give up their power to defend their country...?
To eliminate the threat of the Demon King's Army - we need to stay in the mood, considering that we still don't have a real feeling, but unfoldingly it could be relative to the Demon King as it is.
●
"Chisato feels the same way, right?"
"Yeah, I'm going to the kingdom of Vingle too"
After returning from the castle, I was contacting Chisato, who is in the kingdom of Firgen with his magic.
Since she is a brave man in the Kingdom of Filgen, she is naturally supposed to participate in this operation, and I tried to contact her with a single confirmation.
"The departure is in the morning three days later. About a week to the kingdom of Vingle."
'It's also quite troublesome to take care not to find out what we're doing around. So I guess we're going to be traveling in a carriage disguised as a merchant.'
Because we have to act as secretly as possible, or as long as we have to travel to the kingdom of Vingle while hiding our identity as much as possible, although it is a carriage.
"But it's really sudden"
"Um, he says it was St. Real who planned it, but I don't feel it's too sudden"
Schiff returns to Chisato's words.
Speaking of St. Real, Mr. Lion?
If you want to read in depth, did you need to move the Leafers, the brave ones, or was there another reason...
At the earliest opportunity, the Demon King's Army did not need to exist for Mr. Lion, did it?
"First, do what we can."
When I squeal like that, I feel something inadvertently touch my leg.
I looked under my desk and there was a kid lion mixed with black and white aura.
"Rifana? You come to your room again on your own..."
"Gah."
"Rifana? New woman? '
"Wow, that's a bad way to say it...!"
Surprised by Chisato's words, he puts the lifted rifana on his lap.
For some reason, he comes to my room on his own once in a while, but is this something that Reefa and Nea are aware of?
Well, I didn't tell Chisato, so I can't help but be surprised.
Try to be as easy as possible to understand and convey only words.
"Rifana was made possible by the fusion of Reefa and Nea... you're human. On top of that, I woke up a pure demon and now I'm a child lion."
"... with Doyuko!? I don't know what that means!?"
Stunning voice of Chisato.
Riffana leaking her lacunae with a small mouth open.
I was thinking about the kingdom of Vingle that I was going to head to, thinking that this time of serenity was almost over.
