Continuity is the Father of Magical Power

Lesson Six: The Secret of the World ②

"" Huh? Reborn!?

"Oh, yeah. I'm a reincarnator, just like you and your slaves."

When Bell and I accidentally opened our eyes and were surprised, we were so surprised, what happened? The demon king has turned his eyes to me.

No, you're usually surprised, aren't you?

Well, if you ask me if I'm a reincarnator, I'm convinced of that strength... hey?

"Yes... I knew you were a reincarnator"

"Oh, there he is. There are eleven reincarnators in this world. Nine of them I know."

"Huh? Eleven!? Are you there!?

Besides, are there two reincarnators that the Demon King has not even grasped...

This world is bigger than I thought.

"I've lost a lot of it."

"Huh? Reduced?

Conversely, was there more before?

That's absolutely chaos.

"There are those who have died in defeat of the rebirth."

Wow... as expected, but it was more than I expected.

"Huh? Do reincarnates kill each other?

Bell questioned the Demon King sooner than I did.

I guess you're worried that I'm gonna have to kill each other to see it from a very anxious look.

"Oh, right. We were prepared for that... and now you're about to be killed by the Grantor, aren't you?

That's what we've got for you...

Grantor? Oh, you mean the master's son, Gert.

"... Huh? That guy, was he a reincarnator?

I do have cheesy abilities, so I'd feel that way if you asked me.

No, I didn't think of that.

No, I didn't even think there was a reincarnator besides myself, so I had no choice.

"That's right. Has the magic to use immense magic to grant special features to objects and tools and the skill of a proud arm"

"Something looks strong... I'll have to fight in a few years, but I'm starting to worry about winning."

Um, even though I was so worried about the improvised death bomb alone, it's seriously too spicy to have the skills of an auspicious arm and memories of a previous life.

"No, I think we're good. The grantor is said to be a subordinate compatibility of the Creator. I'm not the kind of person you'd be if you weren't even alert to."

Huh? Really? But the Demon King says, so is it?

"Subordinate compatibility... but that immediate-death bomb or something strong?

Sure, we can do the same thing with creative magic... no, we can do bigger things, but that's because it's overkill.

If you're going to kill each and every one of us, then granting magic power is enough, right?

"For generations, the grantor will draw Dwarf's blood, but he's good at making weapons or magic equipment. So complicated things can also be done. A regular person wouldn't be able to make something like that just by granting magic. Depending on modern technology, I think it will continue to evolve."

"Wow... I'm scared"

He's my master's son, he's definitely going to make some amazing magic equipment... yeah, we need to get ready for more fights.

I'm starting to feel like I can't win the next war without doing too much.

"Oh, um... suppose you beat someone named that grantor... does Master Leo ever compete with other reincarnators?

As I was worried about my battle with Gert, Bell hesitated to ask me questions that remained in my arms.

Yes... Bell's right, there were eleven reborns, and they were killing each other for some reason.

On second thought, if you beat Gert, you'll be at peace and done! That doesn't mean...

"I'd say no... but you can't do that. The more certain, the more Leo will be targeted by the other reincarnators"

Right... Something tells me you're scared to sleep tonight.

Me, you're more lucky with status than people, aren't you? Wouldn't you be back at some point?

I'll have to check this when I get home.

"Oh, no... why, why are the reincarnators killing each other?

Bell was shaking puffy on my lap. Probably more afraid of fighting the reincarnated than I am.

From Bell, who can't even stand before a demon king with so much magic, I guess the reincarnators recognize that he's stronger than I am and that he's very scary.

From the average person's bell, I can't help but be really scared.

Well, I keep my mind superficially normal, too, but I'm so anxious that I don't want to be alone tonight.

"Why... nothing, we don't like each other and we're not killing each other"

"Then why?

"To explain it... I have to explain it in retrospect of my long life for a thousand years"

"A thousand years... Speaking of which, can the Demons live that long?

Then... you mean Lou will live a thousand years too...

You're not going to be able to stand the lonely Lou.

"That's right. The more magic the Demons and Elves have, the longer they can live. My magic is the best of demons."

Depending on the magic... I knew Lou was going to live a long time.

Sounds cute, but I can't do anything for you... at least try to make sure we can live longer.

"Thanks...... sorry I broke your hip about the story. Keep talking."

"Oh. A thousand years ago now. I was born in a demonic village. Just like you. No, that was a little different from you guys. The first generation I knew who I was in my previous life."

I'm talking about a first generation or something I don't know, but I certainly don't know who I was in my previous life.

I don't even want to know who I was in my previous life... well, now.

"Before I came to this world, I was a regular student. What a mess, I had a great day with my three friends every day...... but when I realized I was coming to this world. I was given a mission."

"Mission?"

"Yeah, I've forgotten a lot in the last millennium, but I can't just forget those words. Maybe that's how it is." It's me. This is an order. You kill all the messengers but yourself. 'Just before I was reincarnated into this world, I was told that. "

"Speaking of which, you heard voices from beings like God just before I was reincarnated, too. It was just not such a slaughter word..."

I'm looking forward to seeing how I live with my special abilities.

"I guess so. You've been given no mission."

"Huh? What do you mean?

"I'll explain that later. Let's get back to it."

Oh, you've derailed the story again.

But I have too much information to worry about...

"I struggled a few years after I was born...... I have memories of the world over there, life in that village was only hell"

"Hell...... what village was it?

You say the Demon King was hell, so I guess it was a pretty tough place.

"Weak meat. Weak people have to follow strong people. Power is everything. I always had to fight the inhabitants of the village. Of course, I never lost because I had special memories and abilities."

Wow... what combative nation have you been reincarnated into?

That must have been tough... I'm glad I was reincarnated into a privileged house ~.

Nevertheless, on second thought, nobility... and being born into the highest Duke's house among them, I guess I was the hit of the hit.

A little more, you should be aware of your good luck.

"And back then, when I was tired of living like that, a man came all the way to my village. When he introduced himself to me, he didn't say anything, he involved the village and attacked me."

You attacked me? Could that be a reincarnation?

"The name... I've already forgotten, but I only remember being a classmate in my previous life"

I knew you were a reincarnator. Plus, classmates...... you're awesome at attacking people you know.

No, could it possibly mean that it's manipulated by God?

Something came up earlier that I didn't expect, so I was starting to feel like it could be anything.

"That was the first time I died. I'm used to dying... but, you know, I can't forget how I felt the first time I died."

Hmm? Dead?

"Huh? What do you mean?

If you're dead, why are you here?

"Oh, you didn't explain that yet. The reincarnated are given two special magics and special skills. So, besides space magic, I have the skill of super regeneration."

I knew you were using spatial magic... but it's super playback.

"Super playback? Like playing faster than normal playback?

I've had some experience with the regeneration skills I got in the dungeon that I didn't have to die for, but so does the Demon King?

"Well, there's that too. The main thing is, you'll never die. No, the strength of this skill isn't..."

Hmm? I mean, what abilities?

"The best thing about superregeneration, and my ability to be a factor that doesn't end in hell, is to go back to my full-season body every time I die."

Dead and back in full season?

"What do you mean? It's amazing to be alive when you die, but the Demon King never originally fades, so isn't that the same with or without it?

The Demon King doesn't grow old with enormous powers of magic, does he?

"No, no matter how many demons you say, if you live a thousand years, your magic will also fade. And if the Demons lose their magic, they lose other statuses."

I see... when you die, your magic returns to its full height, so you mean you're young?

So, you've lived a thousand years and you're not old at all.

"Oh, yeah...... does that mean he died recently? Oh, Grandpa."

Oh, there was someone in there who defeated the Demon King.

Grandpa... Oh well!

I've been wondering about that for a long time now.

The question is, how could Grandpa have defeated the Demon King?

I've been questioning my grandfather's accomplishments ever since I learned about the extra-dimensional strength of the Demon King when I was eight.

But today, you got rid of that, too.

My grandfathers were able to defeat the Demon King because a thousand year old Demon King was weak!

Grandpa, I'm sorry I doubted you.

"No, I died once when I was a brave man of my predecessors, but not long before I first learned the strengths of superregeneration."

I almost got stuck listening to the Demon King.

Huh? What do you mean, Grandpa, you beat the Demon King with all the power of the season?

I don't know why anymore......

"Oh, speaking of which, when I first met the Demon King, he said he wouldn't die unless the Demon Stone was destroyed or something, but was that a lie?

"Demon Stone? Oh, you misled me by saying that. Sure, it's a lie I told you, thinking you wouldn't find out because some of the demons have that trait. I couldn't teach you that yet, so I had a hard time deluding you."

"Yes, I did... I forgot that the Demon King's reaction was too strong for his subsequent training."

I didn't know it was such a conceived lie.

I was a demon king at the time, so is that even possible? Because it was about the same.

"Oh, that fight was fun. I've been caged in this house for about forty years, so it's been a good exercise for a long time."

"Good exercise..."

I was going to fight for my life.

"Well, you're not weak enough to beat a young man like you haven't lived in a hundred years"

"Well, you're right."

You're a hundred years old and you call me a young man, and I'm no match for you while you're alive.

"Whoa, you're out of line again. Back to when I was younger."

"Oh, sorry."

"When I was murdered by other reincarnated people with the inhabitants of the village and experienced my first resurrection, I was given another mission by God. Kill the other reborns. There was nothing I wanted to do when I came back from the dead, and it was a pattern I usually attacked each other... but I thought I had to take the enemies of the villages that were just like my family. So I went on a journey to find the reincarnated, as God told me."

I see... and did the Demon King start joining the killing?

"In the meantime, I killed many reincarnators, but I couldn't find the reincarnators I was looking for. Perhaps my abilities have passed to the next generation in my lifespan."

"Next generation?

Speaking of which, the grantor just said something tangible about being inherited by Dwarf's blood, but even if the reincarnator dies, will he be inherited next?

Wouldn't that be a muddy fight?

"Oh. We reincarnates are apart in species, with varying lifespans, right?

"Yeah."

Well, even me and the Demon King have completely different species and lifespan.

"So one of the rules set among God is that if a messenger dies at the end of his life, he can have the next reincarnator. Because of this, our battle has become a muddy one"

If it reaches life expectancy... So if you kill it, you won't inherit that ability.

But I knew you were muddy...

Still, the rules set among gods?

Maybe this means God's proxy war? Or play with people among gods?

Well, either way, I knew God was a mess.
