Golden Experience

They travel at high altitudes after entering the southern continent to avoid being found.

When she flew a little, Lyla went down alone.

Lyla seems to know where the great demons live.

Standing still in the air, Lyla returns with confirmation of her destination.

"Yes, about this low.It's a little off, but it's an error.

Indigo stands out, so we might as well go alone from here.Everyone can fly, right? "

Leaving Indigo in the air, Blanc and Geraldine turn their bodies into fog and descend under Lila's lead.

Lyla, who flies at the head, hides herself in "camouflage" and "undercover", so it's hard to understand, but if you let her touch the edge of the fog, she'll know there's something there.It gets a little mixed up with the fog of Geraldine, but somehow, it feels like the palm of my body touched it, or just feels so embarrassed that there is no particular problem.

Eventually, when I descended to the point where I could clearly see the ground, I saw something like a mountain standing in the tree sea.

That mountain is Sleiman's bed.

A little unexpected.

He was like that dragon, and I didn't think he lived in a typical castle, but I thought he lived somewhere a little more civilized.

A demon named Citry, who seems to be under his command, appeared to be close to ordinary people.

Isn't it a little painful for people close to ordinary people to live in mountains?Do you have to live in the mountains to suit your boss?

The power harassment problem seems to be serious for the demons of the game world as well.

The three of them joined hands and entered the mountain hiding behind Lyla's "Camo" and "Range Hidden."

Bran and Geraldine are a little excited to have to touch Lyla directly in relation to the effect range, but one must either forget it or get used to it.I put up with it as a first step.

I felt a little unexpected about the fact that Lyla didn't feel anything.Who do you think is responsible for this stress?

At this time, Bran felt that he understood a little why Rare was always frustrated with Lyla. Maybe this is it.

After going through the stone corridor for a while, he appeared in a place like a large hall.

Then there lay the dragon modoki that had fought the other day.

If you're going to negotiate amicably for the time being, why don't you talk to him?Looks like there's no other big demon here.

"Ah, hmm. I see... If there's no one else, it's only now."

Speaking of which, I didn't ask how many other great demons there were.I've only seen this city but this Sleiman.

The city, but in the game, Bamboo couldn't even take the attack.From that point of view, even the same big demon is not much stronger than Sleiman.

Nevertheless, if dozens of them appear, they may be unconscious.In other words, it would be very difficult to negotiate a disturbance with such a large number of adults.In order to speak calmly, you will need to reduce the number by at least half.

It is not a friendly negotiation when there is a dead man.

Bran and Geraldine nodded and Lila lifted all cover-ups.

"─ ─ The Great Demon Sleiman, right?Can I talk to you for a second? Ah, excuse me. "

When Lyla called out, Sleiman shook her body in shock.I wonder if it is too small for the figure.

"Ha!? Who is it? When will it be...?!"

"Oops, you should stop magic.Maybe it won't work for us, and the house will break. "

"What is it...?!? No, no, no, you're in the tournament!"

Sleiman's gaze turned towards Blanc.

Blanc usually takes off his robe hood unless he has anything in particular.When you really want to do covert actions, you just need to change into fog, and you can change your face as much as you want with "transformation."

Looking at Bran's face, he remembered the tournament.

He was the one who beat himself, and he remembered it very well.

And Lyla took off her hood and showed Sleiman her face.

"You...! That time!"

I wonder when.

I know the tension is different when I see Bran, and I don't mean the tournament semi-winner.

Speaking of which, Lyla said she might not be friendly if she remembered her face.Maybe then. Did you do something again?

"Oops, you remember. Long time no see."

"... just in time. I have a lot to ask you."

I thought it might be a bad atmosphere for a moment, but what I want to hear is that I am willing to have a conversation.

Maybe I'm better friends than I thought.

Blanc relieved himself of his tension.

"... I know what Blanc's reaction is, but I think he's probably wrong."



"First, the color of your skin.Isn't that the color of the demons?What is your relationship with Bertasalena? "

All of a sudden, the name of a woman I didn't know came up.I don't know if it's a woman's name, but it sounds like a woman.

So, does Sleiman have a bad rival relationship with Lyla over the Bertasalena woman?

I see, then, I nod that it is difficult to be friendly, and that conversation is necessary.

"... I think it's probably different when I just nod at what I just heard.I mean, what did Bran-san find out...?Who's Berta Salena in the first place? "

"Bertasalena is a crazy researcher trying to destroy order in this world, yes."

"Oh, I heard you.Destroy order... I don't think order can be created without someone taking the trouble to create it, and it's not something that applies to the whole world. "

"It's not that kind of lukewarm talk, it's the rationale of the world, it's the root cause."

"... I don't know what you're talking about."

"I see. Perhaps that was something only Bertasalena herself knew..."

Geraldine is confused.

But Bran was more confused than that.

When will the Lunar Dora deployment come out?

"Miss Bertasalena was trying to kill God.Well, he didn't seem to know what that god was either.I don't know, by the way.

Besides, Bertasalena and I have a relationship, but I think it's closest to being an ally.It's just for a moment. "

"Kill God? God is not a fairy tale.I wonder if it still exists somewhere? "

"I thought it existed.Inside her.Or is there a God in fairy tales?Tell me about it next time, Mr. Jerry. "

I thought I was having a triangular affair with Sleiman the Great Devil and Berta Salena the Mysterious Woman, and I already had a date with Geraldine.

That's what Bran thought, Mr. Lyla.

"An ally... Does that mean helping to create that golden monster in the City of Humanity?"

The atmosphere of Sleiman was swallowing.

But Lyla parries in the wind where it blows, and replies in a flurry.

"No, I wasn't expecting that either.Well, I'm glad we got the results.I'm not going to antagonize you, you big demons. "

"... mysterious monsters have been breeding in this tree sea since my subordinate city first saw you.It's not your fault either. "

"I didn't originally live on this continent.You don't know the ecosystem of this tree sea.I can't tell which is new and which is old. "

I've known Lyla for so long.Bran somehow figured it out.

This is a lie.

No, not exactly.

All Lyla said now is, "I didn't live on this continent," and "I don't know the ecosystem of this tree and sea," both of which are true.

But it does not prove "irrelevant to the newly appearing monster."

I assure you, the monster has something in mind for Lyla, and it's probably Lyla's fault.

Of course, I kept silent because no one would gain by pointing this out.

Even for Sleiman, from that abominable way of saying things, once the truth is revealed here, he probably can't retreat.

If that happens, it will be a total struggle, and if Lyla, Bran, and Geraldine resist it with all their might, the mountains and other trees will return to the ashes.

You know that it's a foolish choice to be hostile to Bran, who beat himself at the tournament, and Lyla, who dropped that Bran, after all.

In that case, it may not be an exaggeration to say that the current question was thrown because it wanted to be denied in a sense.

But why did you bother to ask?

"So, what else do you want to know?Actually, I have a favor to ask you today.I'll answer anything you want.Only answers can be given. "

Sleiman thought a little and asked the next question.

"White guy like you, what's that got to do with you?"

Rare, do you mean Septum?It's my sister. By the way, I don't want to be hostile to you, including my sister and other members, so you can think of it as a general idea for all of us.Anyway, that's the next question. "

When he heard that, Sleiman breathed with relief and immediately slapped his tongue.

Why does Lyla say that one strokes the other's nerves backwards?

"... so what brings you here?What do you ask of us? "

"Last time I came here, I saw a piece of metal that resembled a demon used by humans, and I recovered it after destroying it.I think it's for the purpose of feeding a heart that's probably used in the nucleus, but if there's any debris left, I wonder if I can get it. "
