Darenidemo Dekiru Kage Kara Tasukeru Maō Tōbatsu
Thirty-first report: gathering information
Horrible. That would be the case when you describe the sight in a nutshell.
An army of fishermen and sea dragon men lined up narrowly under the sea. Many of them are crude but armed, and some of them straddle sea horses with white hyenas - kelpies.
In the sea, a giant jellyfish a few meters in size drifts as if waiting even on this instruction, and even more giant Kraken moves its tentacles in the dark.
No intelligent demons, no intelligent demons - nothing but nightmares like the demons who are supposed to be hostile to each other.
Numbers are power. Even higher-level named mercenaries will have difficulty breaking through this army from the front.
This is the power of Helyar, or - I can see the despair of the first people to relate to these guys. Humans are too powerless when a herd strikes that cannot be established naturally.
Helyar must definitely be killed here.
I declare confidently to me, determined once again to watch the sight spread silently in front of me, that Helyar, surrounded by a soldier of Kingsguard substitute sea dragon men, has succeeded in returning interest.
"This is my army. Not all the subordinations are gathered yet, but it would be enough to just drop a small port town. I don't know how powerful the Holy Brave and the others are, but I don't know how powerful they are, they're powerless under the sea."
"... it's a gundan to be oso"
It's an honest opinion. Many of the demons of the sea at sea cannot exert their power, but that is limited.
If we can attack the town by so many demons, the complete annihilation of the ship is natural, and the town itself could really sink. No, I can sink for sure. Perhaps Helyar has the means.
And Helyar's depth of caution is more troublesome than simple strength, with all this demons in place but not yet launching an assault on the town.
Fujido's talent stands out, but his current level is 40. If they attack us in large groups, we can't repel them first.
"How long have you been an asshole?
"Hmm. Since when?
Helyar asks the sea-dragon man beside him. The Sea Dragon warrior moved his eyes slightly and answered.
"It's from Toki, who figured out Yusha's Idkoro, ooh. Zican, from tookahodomae, heels."
Ten days ago...
In the fishmonger armor, frowning.
It was seven days before I arrived in this city. There is a time difference. But perhaps not with sweet precision. It should have been around here that Fujido got to this city.
What does this mean?
There is one conclusion to be reached.
They can follow the footsteps of the brave in some way, but they don't know the details.
I've fooled brave men twice in my previous journeys. I therefore recognize the name of the brave man as Ares Crown, but it is not me who is actually chasing him, but Fujido Naoto.
All you have to do is find out how. I also know if I have the means to mislead it if I know how. The world is vast, how it would break bones to say Demons to grab the brave without a clue. At least it gets better than it is now.
Ask carefully not to be suspicious. Grab a strong grip on the mace and look up at Helyar.
"Yusha is ima, where are you?
Helyar opened his mouth, but instead, the neighboring dragonman came forward.
Unlike the sea dragon men around him, he is a dragon man with a short wand that shines gold instead of a spear and is equipped with light armor that protects only the stronghold. Between me and Helyar, I strip my fangs out to intimidate them. It was strangely ferocious to speak human language as if white sharp fangs were in line for slack.
"It's a minato. Shawsai hasn't figured out yet. Xama, stay Otona for a while."
Don't you know the details? That's right. As soon as we see a demonic shadow near the brave, we should get a report from Amelia. On the contrary, Sanya was also allowed to confirm the signs around town. But there was no particular abnormality.
I might not have been able to read these guys' trends until just before they were raided if it weren't for the fisherman armor.
Ignore the dragon man blocking the front and ask Helyar. There's nothing for the lower end.
"Yoko Joho, I'll choke"
"Nooo... what a cunt in Ou's mae..."
"Well, wait. Gregorio."
Contrary to the outrageous dragon man, Helyar's voice is eagle fried. The spare time is horrible for the tolerance that I don't think of as a demon tribe.
Exactly, the king's attitude. Regardless of the unwise demon, the Sea Dragon Man (Seadragon Knight) may be following Helyar from himself.
"Even if I don't know the details, I know I'm in town. If we sink every town, we'll have a problem."
"I don't know what to do."
"The target is a brave man. If he escaped, he was a warrior to that extent, that's all. Defeat becomes a habit, not our enemy. And it doesn't change that we defeated the brave."
Helyar's voice felt confidence and an affront to the brave.
but you're absolutely right. Saint Brave is the hope of mankind. That defeat means a lot to humans. It's better because the summons hasn't been made public yet, but still no loss is allowed.
And Fujido is not the kind of man who runs away without fighting, even if his opponent was a strong enemy. If that opponent is trying to attack the town, it's even worse.
Step around your feet like you're annoyed, and check in a strong tone.
"... if you don't know Shawsai, even if you sizzled Mati, you don't know if he colored it?
Helyar dropped his eyeballs in surprise at my words.
"... if you think you've shown ghostly strength, don't worry about the details. But don't worry. As soon as he dies, we'll know."
"How?
I want to know. I want to get the information out while they think I'm one of them.
It's bad that you asked too many questions, and also the sea dragon man in between makes a sound and intimidates each other as if the metal rubs against each other.
"Make it a good cagen, Gregorio. Though it is a kandai ou, it is not a yule of Ijou fukai"
"... I don't mind. Naturally. Believers of the Evil God... aren't you enthusiastic and inspiring at work?"
Helyar stops the intimidating perimeter. Again, this guy is an idiot. It may indeed be information that I have no problem getting out of the public, but it is too inadvertent. And after all, that alarm and this careful system can't really be linked.
Helyar dropped his hips, peeked into my stirrup eyes and laughed intimidating.
"We have an item that discerns those who have the protection given to the brave - the protection of the Order God - to capture their place of abode. The place of the brave is always captured. Even without that, they're Holy Valor - I'd know for sure if I met them."
Thoughts blank for a moment in that word.
For a long time now, they didn't know how to discern the brave. Various speculations have been made but there was no conclusive evidence. Information I probably couldn't ask where I tortured him.
Coverage!? These guys - are you discerning the brave man's whereabouts by cover-up!?
Indeed, there are a handful of people who are endowed with such strong power that they are called protectors by AZ GREED, who is also the God of Order and the Supreme God. Only to the extent that they can be counted exist, with the exception of special physical persons such as the Virgin.
Sacred art is also the power of AZ GREED, but not on that level. I don't have one, either, and none of the Cardinals do.
Discerned by escort… if possible or impossible - possible. If, as the story goes, there is a brave man who does not have the protection of the god of order. If there exists, that foothold cannot be captured, but Fujido retains it, so there is no point in thinking about it.
Calm your breath and hide your upset. I'm a fisherman, and I'm a fisherman now. It's strange to be so surprised.
We'll pass on the information later when Amelia calls. You've got more to look for in Sanya.
"I see...... I rheukaied. Do you know what to do with that item? I want to cacunine Said."
"... bad, but the item is valuable. I don't trust Gregorio, but only some people are allowed to see"
Not allowed? To whom? I guess it's not Helyar's permission that I need because of that mouthful. To the Demon King?
I got a different look from what Helyar had been floating about. Grasp the wand and make sure that it is slightly - very slightly - invested.
I decided to pull one end. He still has information to confirm.
"... if that's the case, you don't have a shikata. Lyokai."
This guy used the word item, not the means. Then the object is definitely a magic guide. There will be no indistinguishable Sanya hired as a scourge.
Apparently, this is going to be a mission with a lot to gain.
I laugh with my lips crooked in fishmonger armor watching Helyar's army align creepy. Thanks to the thick armor, it never looks outside.
Helyar flaunts his shoulder and returns his heel. The pitch-black coat flickered loudly, and the clumped silver armor made a squeaky little noise.
"We're going back inside, Gregorio. Now I'm still collecting my men. I can win for sure. Stand by until as many troops as you can be sure of that. Don't call me a coward, but I, the king, have a temptation too."
"... that's what Ou is"
Grasp the mace, suppress the killing, and follow after the sea dragonman escorts you.
I felt countless gazes all over my body, but none of them noticed who I was and attacked me.
§ § §
"I can't. We should see how it goes for a while."
"But Lord Nao... we don't have time..."
Aria pulls for a moment at the impending appearance, but says hastily.
The information given by traveling demon researchers had made Fujido's party extremely confusing.
Fujido tells Aria that she should head to the submarine temple as soon as Mermaid Armor is formed that she should wait until Aresmerman is gone. Limis looking at the situation and Gresha looking at the cookies in a way that doesn't matter.
The starting suspicious food girl sits back in her chair and sips a cup of tea with plenty of sugar without me involved.
I'm not particularly nervous about whether my liver is still in place or even though I was invited to a strange mercenary party inn.
"You heard that, right? Ares Merman, the most powerful marman in the world. They're the strongest in the world, aren't they?
"But even the strongest is Merman. If we're prepared enough and it takes four of us, can we fight back enough?
Aria disagrees with Fujido, who says it with a serious look.
Demons differ in strength due to individual differences even in the same type. But the difference doesn't usually get that big. Humans are the ones with the most individual differences.
Fishmen are the bottom line in sea demons. Even the strongest, you don't have the power of a dragon coyote.
This one is over that Golem Valley. Sure, maybe it's superficial, but it also seems like it doesn't matter if the four of us get in.
Fujido sighs small at Aria's prophecy.
"... I'm not feeling weak either, but it seemed difficult to win from the front. But it's hard to trap in the ocean."
"Aresmerman is so smart that the trap doesn't work. The estimated crusade level is said to be 90. I thought it might be difficult for Fujido and the others today."
So, the rabbi comes up with new information all the time.
Remis opened his eyes and stared at the rabbi. The look hidden in the hood doesn't look good.
"90!? Are you kidding me!? You know, even the Knights can only really deal with the top handful!
"It's true. Disaster class. He's a thug who can't even help the Demon King's army with his strength."
"... you're incredible. I know there are many powerful demons in the sea, but I've never heard of such a Marman"
Aria frowns.
It goes without saying that it is famous for its sea demons, Helyar the Sea Demon. There are many nominated ones in the Land Demon Nation, but only one of them exists in the sea.
It is no exaggeration to say that Helyar's power was so overwhelming that the sea was taken by Helyar.
I breathed a small breath into Aria's words as if the rabbi could shudder. Tell him to roll it up quickly.
"Nothing, I didn't say I wanted you to believe me. But I did warn you. I hope you don't resent me if I get killed."
"Yes, no, I can't believe you didn't..."
"I advised in good faith. Ares Marman is fierce and much more colorful than goblins, so if you get caught, you'll end up stunned and miserable... maybe."
A quiet voice pierces the hearts of Fujido and the others. On the sword screen, Fujido twitched.
The rabbi lifts his jaw small and looks up at the pale vineyard. Serious voice colors that didn't even seem to be teasing me were adding to the authenticity.
"Is that... capturing humans? hey... what a horrible demon..."
"When I found him, he was treating the dog-eared mermaid like a pet."
To Rabbi's words, Zokri and Fujido tremble their bodies. I was afraid of that power alone in the long run, but it would be even worse if it were to capture humans.
"When... if anyone is caught... to help... I have to go..."
Fujido opens his eyes and says in a trembling voice.
The rabbi silenced for a few moments as if to think, opening his mouth.
"Anyway, he's already dead, so you don't have to worry."
"... Huh!?
"... the mermaid was more than happy, and if I recall, maybe it was on agreement. Oh, right. That's how it's decided."
Fujido looks softly at Aria. She had eyes and eyes, but Aria pulled her cheeks and shook her neck slightly to the side.
I then look at the remiss, but the remiss is also blinking my eyes again.
So the rabbi jumped off the chair in a light motion. It was a thin carpet that was laid on the floor, but not one footstep.
"Anyway, I gave you a warning. It's just seasonal now, so you should wait, that's just it. Fujido and the others are free to do what they want to do."
"Wait..."
So Aria stood up. Look down at the girl in the hood and ask.
"I appreciate the information... but who are you?
Information would be appreciated. It doesn't matter what you take, it doesn't hurt Fujido and the others. I use my time to judge, but I haven't been able to do Mermaid Armor yet in the first place, and I can't even get into action.
But the information was too abrupt.
Immediately answer Aria's questions without even showing the bare gestures the rabbi thinks.
"As I said earlier, I am a traveling demon researcher researching demons and demons with outstanding abilities. I'm just a stubborn scholar doing demonic research and getting paid to eat. At the end of the day, if it helps the mercenaries a little bit, I'm satisfied. This is a very noisy time."
There was a strange awesomeness in the words that could be said pale.
See that again. Large reddish brown robe to hide small body. My head was softly hooded and I can't see the look on its face, but when I gave it a glimpse of its white skin and neat appearance. Also, from that voice, the gender is a woman - that's definitely a younger girl than Aria, too.
I don't have any weapons or big baggage, and realize that I don't look very much like I'm traveling, but at the same time I don't see any gaps in that position.
I can't feel anything like intimidation from its height, but I'm sure it's a skill.
I'm not traveling with Aria for no reason. Ultz on Gregorio. I have met numerous strong men.
The signs the rabbi has are different vectors from that, but if you're studying demons while traveling, you probably have the strength to do so.
Fujido raises his hand small and looks at the rabbi still. The rabbi movement stopped perfectly.
"Rabbi...... is chasing Ares Marman, right?
"Yes. Even so, I'm not chasing you all the time. Because I don't have fins."
Rabbi making jokes without tickling or laughing. Ignoring that word, Fujido got to the point.
Fujido and the others don't have time. Well, there's no way you're going to make a pointless danger.
But luck or fate, coincidentally, is right in front of you with its most powerful merman and someone familiar with it.
There was suspicion, but Fujido's investigation said the girl was on his side.
"We have to hurry to the submarine temple for a reason. I'll thank you...... if you like, Rabbi, can you help me?
Suddenly the rabbi is silenced by the spoken word.
Fujido is a brave man. Though the journey to save the world, its identity remains to be revealed. From the rabbi, this would be just a suspicious mercenary party. Even if not, I just appreciate the information.
Shut up and wait for the answer. The rabbi is also silent.
Again, can't you...... Rabbi said it small when Fujido was about to give up.
".................. that's fine"
"Ho, really!?
"Yes, because it's time for me to show my boss the good stuff too. It's hard to get hired."
The rabbi sighs small and raises his face. Beautiful, red eyes as transparent as the treasure balls on the wand with the remiss were the eyes of Fujido.
I felt some strong visibility in that color, but I shake it off right away. I offered my hand with a gentle grin.
"Thanks! That would really help."
Rabbi stared at Fujido's palm for a while, but tilted his neck slightly and took Fujido's hand.
The little hand was wrapped in thin gloves, but its delicacy is well understood even from the top of a thin cloth.
He holds his hand and opens his eyes like the rabbi was upset for the first time. But I coughed up small as soon as I got me back, and I answered.
"... Kohon. Yes, it would be nice to meet you for a short time. Fujido."
