From Mightiest Hero to Demon King (WN)

The Demon King touches the trail of paradise

Gallius took off his helmet and held him aside, raising his altitude even further with a cloak of wind.

Even if you look around 360 degrees, there are just islands floating across the ocean, as was seen in the footage from Puwi.

"I don't see any natural land."

'That's right. What a strange sight.'

Soon Elzanad appeared beside him.

"You know what that floating island is?

'No. I've never heard of it at all'

Elzanard shakes his neck to the side.

'More than that, are you sure? Leave her alone. "

This time Gallius wasn't alone, he had a companion.

Even so, he went to the site first and called after confirming that there were no problems with climate, etc. There are animals and plants, but there are signs that people have perished, so just in case.

And the ruins of Abelia, like the ruins of Ilua in the eastern part of Limullesta, also await guardian beasts outside the ruins.

"I'll be fine because I'm far from the ruins range."

Nevertheless, I could feel free to remain alone forever.

Gallius gets off to earth once and for all, even accelerating to a free fall.

"Oh, welcome back."

It was Rippi of Warcat who greeted him with a grin all the time.

"I'm sorry. I pushed the work on you."

"It's no big deal to pack. How'd it go?

Lippi asks, rearranging the contents of the crate he sent.

"You didn't see land from here. I can't even confirm the gigantic junction. Once again, we're going to need to explore the giant junction."

Gallius answers that as he helps too.

"So you assemble an example flying boat? Sounds like it's gonna take some time."

"Oh. Let's take a look around this island for a second. Some places I'd like to check as soon as possible."

"Is that it? Aren't you going into the ruins? Didn't I tell you to come in and try it or something?

"I didn't mean to. It's a milder environment than I thought. Again, there's no denying the possibility that people are hiding somewhere."

The entrance to the Abelian ruins can only be opened to Gallius so far.

If there was someone in this land, there would be a reason it wasn't open. That's why I felt I shouldn't open it cheaply.

Stack food and water in a backpack, carried by Lippi.

Gallius also held a bag filled with what he needed in one hand.

Looking up from the woods, a huge building caught my eye at the foot of a large mountain. Gallius and the others walked out in a different direction, not there...

The depressed trees were flooded with the breath of life.

Insects and wild rats are all over it, and they're surprised the boars cross in front of them.

"You kind of remind me of where we met. It's been years since Galius and I went for the End of the Forest."

Are you ignoring me?

Elzanad, fluffing overhead, leaked his dissatisfaction.

"Haha, I'm sorry. But Mr. Elsa was sneaking around with you then, wasn't she?

"Yeah, I was sneaking up on you."

"If you'd come out early, I'd have enjoyed my journey more"

"I, in fact, am familiar."

"Huh? Really?"

The conversation continues between Lippi, who narrows her eyes and laughs nasty, and Elzanad, who responds well.

(Things were really different then when Elzanad was there. -)

Think of it, if you don't meet Rippi in Wang Du right after you pay the brave man off.

(I wonder what the hell was going on...)

I may have taken off my kingdom and lived alone without engaging with the Subman.

There were a number of difficulties, but I wouldn't even have imagined a happy life right now.

As I immersed myself in sentiment, the forest suddenly opened.

There are a number of buildings lined with houses and thoughts that are intertwined. It's a testament to the fact that someone once lived here.

The road was full of grass. Scratch and proceed to reach the nearest building.

"How long have you been left alone?

"I don't think it's going to be this far in a decade or so. But......"

Conversely, if decades, more than a hundred years had passed, wouldn't you be buried in the woods? Doubts also arise that

Lippi looked at the building shiatsu and said, "Is that it?," he tilted his neck and reached out. Pull the crawl and pay the wall by hand.

"Stone...... is it? It's tight."

"Is it mortar? It's commonly used for 'connections' in people's homes, but you don't really see how to cover walls."

Gallius slaps the wall so hard. Tough and sturdy.

I continued and glanced at the wall with my palm.

(I felt decayed from the footage of Pwy, but did it just look like that with dust and dirt)

Not a single little crack.

[Item Master] was activated.

One of the 'tools' made for the purpose of all of us even when it comes to walls. As well as how to use it, the manufacturing process can also be revealed to Galius.

"What is this? Impossible to use demonic stones. Materials are different from what I know."

"Wow, you mean?

"Some durability is out of step, but it has some special effects such as not sending demons"

"Heh... hmm? No demons?"

"That's right. There used to be demons walking around here, except for someone who made a living."

Why can't you see either of them?

"Let's go inside"

If you lived similarly to people, it's not strange to have words and letters.

"If I had a book, I'd know a lot."

Lippi got a lot of temper.

The door was made of wood, but this one hasn't decayed with magical effects either.

Sturdy while locked, Gallius chopped the door with a holy sword.

The dust dances. The light from the entrance alone couldn't see inside.

"I think you should use a lantern."

Gallius nods, takes the lantern out of his bag and lights the fire.

"Oh? What is this?

There was a five-centimetre square on the wall just after entering.

"If pressed, the trap will activate."

'You have to be vigilant. You mustn't touch it lightly, do you?

"I don't think there's a trap in the residence..."

Gallius carefully laid down his hand and gave it strength to push. But pushing doesn't scare me, nothing happens.

"... let's go inside"

The hallway stretched straight out of the front door, and there was a door on the rampage and on the left and right walls. The left and right doors fall behind and open the slamming doors.

Inside there were sofas and dining tables, divided by a large table with only one painting of the corners.

The chair is down and the chest on the wall is lying down.

(Strange that it's not so much a trail of vandalism......)

The drawer on the fallen chest is closed, nor does it feel like the other furniture has been snagged around.

"The bookcase doesn't seem..."

"Want to see the other rooms?

"No, let's check here first. Anything with a letter on it, let me know when you find it."

Bring the table to the center and place the lantern there. This is not all I can forgive, but Gallius and Lippi split up and explored the area.

I don't see anything like paper.

However, there were a few things that were unknown in use.

"What is this big box?

Behind a painting divided by a large table.

There is a box with a width of a little over a metre and a depth of half of it. It looked like a structure that would open up, and when I pulled the handle it opened easily, but it was empty inside.

Gallius touches the box.

"... you're a magic tool that fills the inside with cold air"

"Cold air? What do you use it for?

Gallius looks behind his back. Large table that divides the room. At its end, there were two metal rings.

"Is this a magic tool that creates fire? Perhaps, but isn't that box something to keep the ingredients cool?

I told you, Gallius couldn't believe it. Because...

"Uh, this was the kitchen. But it's a luxury to use so many special magic tools to cook."

I'm not talking about luxury.

The demon stones used are so massive that I don't think they can be prepared in the average home.

(If these are the 'normal' of those who once lived here -)

Wasn't a very advanced civilization built?

There were a number of strange mechanisms of ruins all over the place. The purpose and use are as if they were different, but the mechanism itself is similar to it. No, I'm glad I thought the underlying idea was the same thing.

"Is that it?"

Lippi points to the wall. It's the same square shape as the one at the entrance.

Gallius knew what it was. Because I was looking into it when I pressed it with my hand earlier.

"The magic fixtures in this building do not get magic from users to move. There's got to be a source of magic somewhere."

"Want to look?

Gallius, who nodded with a stiff nod, called out from afar.

'Could it be something here?

Elzanad points to the back of the fallen chest.

I rushed over and tried to get the chest out of the way.

"Huh!?"

"Hmm? What is this..."

Small pedestals and spheres without light. These two, each apart but probably falling off the top of the chest, were next to each other as if they were one.

Sounds like a control device in the back of the temple.

Gallius lifts the pedestal section. After all, the sphere followed it.

Place on the table and put your hands around the sphere area. I already knew how to do it.

[Master registration completed]

The sphere brings light.

"Lippi, touch my hand on the end of it."

There was also a wall near the entrance to the room.

Lippi leans closer to it and puts her palm down, even though she seems strange.

Pah.

"Wow!?"

Shortly afterwards, the room became bright.

"The ceiling's glowing, isn't it?"

"Isn't this the same thing in the ruins?

As Lippi felt, it's the same logic that would have ensured his vision with the light soaking out of the wall if it were underground.

"Put your hands there again and it'll get dark"

Said, Lippi let go of her hand and put it down again. Light disappears from the ceiling, as Gallius said.

When I touched it again, the light lit up again.

"It senses the magic of those who put their hands down and switches. Do you think it's expedient not to pick someone?"

"Wow! That's handy."

To be precise, it's not the source of magic that I found, it's the magic equipment that controls it. The functions are narrowed, but the temple's controls and mechanisms are the same.

(Anything to do with those who built ruins and temples and those who lived here...)

In contrast to Gallius, who strengthens his face, Lippi continues to be innocent.

"Fine. I want to live in a house like this."

Simple hope.

But Gallius, in Lippi's words, had goosebumps all over his body.

The abandoned house is, however, still 'alive'.

Even advanced and convenient magic equipment remains in place.

Further beyond the end, there existed a true 'paradise' -.
