Civilization Game

The road marches to the cavern exit.

“Your Majesty! These things are still standing. ”

As Aaron Dyt said, outside the cave, the dragons are still swarming with monsters, waiting for Lord's group to come out. I thought I would leave on my own if I completed the Ancient Quest, but I had no idea.

“Mine. Prepare your pheromone skills. We'll get out the same way we got in. ”

“Take orders. ”

Once Mine's abilities are ready, everyone climbs up behind her. Perhaps thanks to enough rest, the daemons' barges returned to their original ‘full plate armor' form.

“Then let's go! ”

Flutter! The daemons spread their wings and vent out of the cave.

As if the dragon monsters who saw Lord's party were waiting for you, Mine immediately uses pheromone technology.

- Pheromone shower.

As the green glowing powder spreads in the wind, the monsters stagger back. In the meantime, the Roads soar into the higher skies.

“Yay! What do you think? Guys! Ah-ha-ha! ”

Aaron Dye looks down and shouts joyfully.

“Fine! Let's keep going to the Dragon Castle. ”

“Yes, Master. ”

“Your Majesty! Aren't we being sincere? Let's stop by and get some rest! ”

“... You've been sleeping in a cave. ”

Everyone was talking with a bright face because the mission was accomplished and they were on their way back. Even the calm Minerals begged Lord to tell them about the god they had met.

‘I wonder what happened to the siege. Is Tia doing well? ’

Blah!

“ ……?! ”

With a loud sound, the sky suddenly turned pale.

The stabbing sensation that was electrocuted flows through the body. Lord's vision is turned upside down. The daemon that burned him is plunging to the ground.

‘… What? Why is it falling...? ’

“Your Majesty!"

Aaron Dyte stretches out his arm, but he can't hold it. The fall was too fast. A fierce sense of speed rushes through the body, and Aaron's appearance quickly becomes as distant as a soybean. At the end of the field of view, dense trees appeared, and the leaves and branches slammed into my body.

Kuku Kung!

Finally, the cloudy dust covers the surroundings.

“... Ugh. ”

I lost my mind for a moment.

The rod raises its heavy eyelids. Blood spilled from his forehead obscured his sight.

‘God, I'm going to die. ’

My whole body ached like it was broken. Rod wipes the blood from his aorta with his sleeve and shakes the shoulders of the crashed daemon together.

“Are you okay? Wake up! ”

Her barding is loosened in the shape of a full plate armor. A little bit of stunning visuals made Rod blush his face. Now that she has jumped a few levels of subbarding, she is wearing a high-exposure lingerie.

‘… Harbert, this bastard is blatantly……. ’

While it is natural for the defense system, Barding forms the form of armor, once the Black Magical Power drops below a certain amount, it cannot maintain the shape of the armor, thus it becomes a common piece of cloth. And that form was purely Harvard's taste in training daemons. Even though I felt gratitude for a short time, Lord strongly denied that feeling.

“…… Master. ”

She slowly opens her eyes.

“Are you awake? ”

“Yes.”

She frowns and raises her torso.

“What was that all of a sudden? ”

“I wasn't fully aware, but I think I was attacked by something. I felt a murder on the way down. ”

“… of flesh? ”

Strange. You noticed in the previous battle that the wild monsters couldn't pierce the barding. Then what the hell were you attacked by?

The feeling of fighting gave me goosebumps all over my body.

‘At this rate, it's dangerous. I have to get out of here... ’

Lord raises his head. Beyond the tall trees, you see dragon monsters roaming around with long tears in the sky. It was a big deal if they even found out where they were.

“How long can the remaining magical powers fly? ”

She shakes her lingerie top lightly and says,

“After five minutes, you'll see my naked body going down. ”

“Ahhhh……. ”

Rod grunts and buries his face in the palm of his hand. Of course, there have been many crises like this, but it was a disaster on the way back after completing the Ancient Quest safely... My head hurts.

“… What do we do now? What do you say?”

“Calm down, Master. He's over-excited. ”

“How can I calm down in this situation... Huff! ”

Rod quickly raises her up and pushes her toward the tree. A dragon monster is passing right over your head. The monster caused the surrounding plants to shake.

“… sorry. ”

Once it's quiet around the perimeter again, Rod quickly retreats back. It was a misleading painting if anyone saw it because of her outfit.

However, the expression on the daemon's face that was looking at Lord was unusually serious.

“What's the matter? ”

“As expected, the Master is overly nervous. ”

“… I'm fine. ”

“In that sense, I've prepared a personal machine that relaxes me. ”

“…… Yes? ”

Lord suspects his ears. In the meantime, what did you prepare? I couldn't grasp the context of the conversation. I heard you have intelligence. Do daemons all have this quadratic state of mind?

Despite Lord's embarrassment, the daemon is busy preparing for a private event. After a short while, her voice turns loud and faint.

“Hmph, panda stuff! Look, I'm not doing this because you care! ”

“Someone did it and it was you! ”

That must be the chimera of the Maid costume that mimicked Unibel's vocal chords. He folded his arms and turned his head to perfection.

“Now you've found out. You have been promoted from Chimera to a daemon this time. ”

She opens her chest and says.

‘… Hahaha……. It's ridiculous to be surprised. Really.’

You hear a laughter. Seeing how absurd you are, your tension subsides as you relax. As a result, it was her intention.

“… the friend who was imitating Eve's vocal chords? ”

“I'm still a chimera. ”

“Too bad.”

“I didn't have enough effort. ”

But things got bad. Several dragon monsters recognize Lord and Daemon and are flying this way.

“Master. The master's voice was too loud. ”

“… You really……. ”

Lord sighs and rumbles through his pockets.

“Let me ask you a question. What are the odds of us beating those monsters? ”

“Nothing.”

The daemon replies decisively.

“Then it's the only way. ”

Lord pulls out the pendant.

“…… This? ”

“I'll give it to you. You'd be okay with that. ”

If it's fate, it's fate.

Lord intends to make her an apostle of drinking.

The reward for ancient quests was usually a hero of class A or higher. It was okay (in many ways) to have two unibells here, if you were to be a hero. Of course, it could be more, depending on her talents.

She is also instinctively drawn to the power of the drink that flows from the pendant. The pendant opens to make the rod easier to hang around your neck.

Ka 'ang!

“… Huh? ”

Suddenly, fire flares up the pendant and bounces off the road and into the bush.

“Found it.”

As soon as Rod heard the sound of it resounding, he felt horrified by the fur all over his body. On your spine, something stings up to the back of your neck.

A man with a bloody spear in grey hair is approaching the bush.

“I don't like magical armor. Let's just put it away and get started. ”

Zeros.

‘... I was in trouble. Why is he here? ’

“Master, I'll stop them. ”

Rod shakes his head at the daemon's words.

“Run away.”

“… Yes? But I have a mission to protect the master... ”

“You can't stall me, so run! ”

Lord takes her hand and runs. Zeros' smiling face becomes invisible through the bushes.

‘… damn it!... Damn! It was him! ’

After hearing the commotion, even the dragon monsters following you started attacking Lord Lord. Rotating his head, Rod dodges a sharp beak, pulls out a dagger from his waist and strikes the monster in the eye. The monster screams and falls to the ground, and Lord hops on it and keeps on running.

Idiot!

A sharp spear of red magic pierces through the forest.

“Master!”

The daemon leaps into the road, blocking it with its body. The barding, which normally would have kept her safe, was meaningless, and there was a big hole in her chest.

“Ah…! ”

Rod stops walking. She vomits blood on the floor.

“S-ster. You have to evade...! ”

“... I'm sorry! ”

With no time to mourn the death of a familiar servant, Lord keeps on running.

Quadruple! Quadruple!

A succession of red trenches appeared in the forest. Blood splatters from the wounds on the rod's thighs and shoulders.

‘Dammit! It's impossible for me to use my skills to track Zeros down. I'd rather...! ’

Rod leaves the forest and heads for an empty opening.

“This way!”

Rod shouts, and the dragon monsters flying in the sky find him and fly away. Zeros laughs absurdly as he looks out of the forest.

“Are you trying to get monsters to look at me? ”

The sky was immediately covered with flying species monsters descending into the open ground.

“Good. I'm happy to fit in. ”

Zeros, in position, turns his spear around with one hand. Following the red trail, a vision of magical power paints the air red. Zeros' glare flashes as he bends his torso and raises his spear oblique behind his waist. The red magic that flows from his body blends black and swirls like a vortex.

- Blood fever.

Blah!

Zeros swings his spear once more.

His spear lengthens red wounds in the sky. Just as the road fell, the sky turned red for a moment.

Then the heavenly monsters rained down like hail.

“ ……! ”

Rod stops walking and looks at it. Running away seemed meaningless.

“Rod Polentia. ”

Zeros walks with his spear on his shoulder. Monsters are all around him! Bang! You're falling apart.

“No matter how busy we are, we have to settle our debts. ”

He scrubs the back of his hand with the black blood flowing down his mouth. I don't know how, but it seems to be a technique for making sacrifices.

Lord asked with a smiling face.

“… let me ask you one question. How did you know where to find me? ”

“Don't you know what the quiet dragon monsters are up to? These guys are pretty friendly to the islanders. I came here because an outsider came into the woods, and it was you. ”

“And the Dragon Castle? I can't protect you if you're gone. ”

“It's none of my business. ”

Lord realizes what he's up to. This man was beyond imagining.

“Don't be so hard on yourself. I'm not after your life. ”

“... What does that mean? ”

“Stabbing a guy like you is a simple thing. But what does that mean? I need to see you begging me to kill you. ”

‘... So you're going to kill him. ’

Lord sighs and raises his right arm overhead.

“Why am I this type of grudge? ”

Paaaahhhh!

A golden sword flew from the sky and landed in Lord's hands. Lord takes up battle stance, raising Aaron Dyte to his feet.

“Dead or messy. Let's fight, Crazy Dog. ”
