390th Moat: Another God and Cave Story
Another God and Cave Story
SIDE: Noble
The sound of running the pen echoes in the room.
Normally, there's nothing to worry about, but once you listen, it's funny, and there's a strangely constant rhythm.
The Chancellor or something who handles the paperwork in the same way beside him is unconscious or he puts his pen tip twice in the abyss of ink bumps and repeatedly writes and stops.
Perhaps I have the same rhythm?
"... hmm? Your Majesty, the pen is stopped, but the paperwork is over?
"No, we're almost there. I was taking a short break. Don't push the Chancellor. so as to allow a moderate break."
"Thank you for your attention. but I'm almost done with mine, so let me keep going"
"Mm-hmm. Then I'll try my best too. I don't want to see the Chancellor relax after work first."
"Ha, you can't force it. Your Majesty is also old."
"Yes, the flesh is younger than the Chancellor. Keep an eye on it. Let me finish first, and I'll show you who's free from work."
Like competing like that, I finished my paperwork and was taking a breather.
"No, you're too old to be worth it."
"Right. But not bad."
"Right. It reminds me of childhood."
"Childhood heart... or I can hardly remember when I was my child"
"Looks like he's still stuck one foot in the kid."
"I don't know about that. Even the Chancellor wouldn't wish he'd met me a little younger?
"Mmm. Somehow, I used to think so, but now you think this look isn't bad in this way. Being young is a tough position for a prime minister. It's easy enough for you to care for the elderly."
"Sounds logical, but then, wouldn't the figure care more about me as a child?
"Your Majesty is overwhelmed with hegemony, and in fact, government is perfect. It's pretty hard to tell what you care about and what you can lick, and I think it's enough as a king."
"Because of your position..."
That's what I said, I'm stuck at my desk, and the Chancellor squeals.
"... position. Speaking of which, Your Majesty was His Excellency the General of Ex."
"Oh, you were just around the time of the Demon King Battle. Even so, it was only a small country back then."
"That was about a hundred years before I was born.... It's a hard story to hear, but who is Sakuri already at that time?
"Mm-hmm. My friend and I were shoulder-to-shoulder by then. With that said, you never talked about it. Meet my friend, Sakuri, and the process leading up to that appearance."
"Your Majesty, that story, it begins with what I have told you, but with something that you can let me hear? You don't have to talk to me, do you?
"What, I trust Sakuri about the Chancellor, too, and don't we normally have a conversation?
"That's why. Lord Sakuri, like His Majesty, is the one in charge of the pillar stone of Ex. Shall we imitate Sakuri to the detriment of his mood?
"Ha, he's not the kind of guy who bends Heso over such a small thing. It's big enough to accept that look. I think you're ashamed that the minded prime minister knew about my encounter."
"... well, if you're Sakuri"
"So let me ask you something. I've been too busy to talk. But now, Lord Populi, Lord Hiffy and the warriors of the Demon King are on the verge of aligning. There's nothing wrong with listening to what happened back then."
"... so is that. Can you tell us about the time as His Majesty would allow?
"Uhm. Well, where did you talk from...... right, chronological order would be nice. Meet my friend, that would be the beginning of Ex now."
Not yet, before the Battle of the Demon King.
Like now, many countries with intelligible and powerful powers, national powers, did not exist, and were worse days of war than they are now.
Like I said, Ex was a small country at the time, and neither was his name Ex.
The name Ex was a name when I was able to be a big country, and it was a different name when I was a small country, but, well, I don't care there.
Me at the time... Oh, you can't be me at the time. I'm sure of it.
He was already a god, but was normally looking for a way to guide people and the world about the status of a general in a small country that was disputed among people and, as the Chancellor put it, marginal.
Think of it as not a powerful thing to do, just a god to be worshipped.
Well, at the time, the effects of magic depletion were noticeable, honestly, it was like I had no power as a god.
Or it was pretty much the same as people.
Many gods also scattered their lives in that war and later in the Battle of the Demon King.
I guess you understood that.
You don't know what it's like to be a god above us, but there was a man who told us that he had made a dungeon master who could help us.
Suitable for reason. But the original dungeon was in the demonic nest at the time.
Yeah, well, there's nothing I can do about it, and I heard most of those dungeon masters failed to maintain it and scattered their lives.
In fact, the only gods and dungeon masters left after that Demon King battle were Hiffy and the genius Comet Tail and me and my friend, Sacri Faith.
And that's off the record.
When he invaded the territory of another country as a general in the days of the war, his lord was the Sacrifice.
Out of my mind, I was made to struggle.
At the time, I was called a military god because of its effects. It became more famous when it came to the Battle of the Demon King, but since then it has already been referred to as a military god and so on.
He showed me the folk grass, and even though he was the last one, he used the Dungeon Master's abilities to call the demons and resist me.
"You. A dungeon master... It wouldn't have turned out like this if we'd been using demons from the beginning."
"Ha, ha, gu. I can't do that. inferior to fools such as lords who frighten the people"
"As a result, the people's lives on this land are gone, right?
"He's gone, he's gone. I saw you and I was sure. I am not a abuser of the people. Kill the people who came back?
"... the people are the true treasure of the country. And the fool with his hands will perish sooner or later."
"Then whether or not all we have to do is protect this land"
"... so what was the answer?
"... oh, on behalf of the powerless me, I ask the people who live in this land"
That's what I said, I stopped resisting. I didn't drop Sakuri's neck.
"... if I drop your neck, it will be a great rebellion from the people who live in this land. So get down to me. I saw that I also served my fatherland in law. It's not stupid to go down."
"But..."
"That power that God gave me, and above all, the attitude that puts people's peace first without being overwhelmed by power. It's a shame to lose it. As a thing in the same position."
"... the same?
"This is happening, but it seems to be God's end. Didn't you have a temple there, too? If there's a god or a dungeon master who can help, he wants me to."
"... well. Is this heavenly destiny?
"No, this is the path you and I have chosen. There is no such thing as heavenly destiny. I have to cut myself open. That's why it's a shame to lose you confronted with me."
"... ok. I'll go down to you. Noble."
"Please do me a favor from now on. Sacri."
This is the meeting between me and Sakuri.
We felt each other, the limits of what we could do.
I guess that's why each other's power seemed attractive.
Well, more than that, as a friend, it was a pleasant day.
Drill daily, talk about each other's abilities, do what you can, and manage to pull the X.
In the meantime, I tried to increase my companionship, and went around looking for God and the Dungeon Master, but there was no increase between them in those who had already lost their lives or, like Hiffy and Comet, searched a different path from the strife.
And then came the Battle of the Demon King.
The great army of demons and the demon king who leads it.
Small countries were instantly crushed, and many of the countries left behind joined forces to become the prototype of today's great powers.
Ex is one of them.
But at the time, in the confusion, there were few soldiers who could move, and me and Sacri were tired of turning around.
"Ha, tough one"
"Right."
"Are you hurt?
"Uh, I cured you with potion."
"Are you hurt!? I told you not to step forward because if you die you won't get support from the dungeon!!
"Noble is my mother. I mean, I'm glad this was all you had to do in that brawl."
"... what's the damage to the soldiers?
"He died 10% in the battle earlier. I'm recovering from turning the potion, so it's better than any other army."
"Do you want to take demons into your own hands..."
"You can't. Demons are now enemies of the world. A dungeon master who can serve that could be said to be a Demon King executive or something. We'll be surrounded. [M] I mean, I don't have enough DP to serve that much. They make them look like they're underground for evacuation, and they're in and out, but that's a sparrow tear. Recently, this DP retrieval sword is getting better, so luxury isn't good."
"I know. But with this sword, it does not reach the holy sword held by the brave"
"That's right. This one is for DP collection only. It's not a holy sword with an emphasis on aggression or anything. How did you get such a sword in the first place? Uh, if I could just take it and see it. Even though I can replicate it."
"... I know who made it"
"Well, then why don't you go see the guy? What's he like?
"... like us, a combination of God and the Dungeon Master. But you can't."
"Why?
"When the Battle of the Demon King began, I lost touch.... probably."
"... ha. Tough. But I don't know if I can manage to meet one of the brave guys. You may know who made that holy sword, and you can replicate it."
"It may be difficult, but we can't ignore its potential and usefulness. Okay, let's hang it on top."
The wish is miraculously fulfilled.
I met Lord Defense, the leader of the brave, and he showed me the holy sword.
Well, as a result, I assumed the role of holding back the army in support of the assault on the Demon King.
It was as it stands that there were no other troops available for service.
"Ha, I heard that the Holy Sword is reserved for them, but it's really weird. This sword."
"That was a miscalculation, my sweet dream that if I could use the replication of the Holy Sword ended with a dream. Genius, there was no drain on Comet."
"Ha, well, okay. I could see the good looks of the defense."
"Hmm? You knew the brave leader?
"No, I guess I just know this one unilaterally. One of our knights let go when Noble attacked us."
"... something that forgets the face of the former Lord?
"It won't be normal, but right now she's in a special position, a pillar of morale, a brave man. You can't upset me with my mouth in the middle of nowhere."
"Right. Now I want you to achieve the Demon King Crusade at all costs."
"Yes, yes. And we'll do our best to support it."
"Oh."
That being said, there was an overwhelming army of demons looming ahead of me and Sacri to see.
"Report!! The current strength of the enemy army is 70,000!! We only have 3,000!!
"Right, good luck. From here it becomes a place of death. Tell everyone. Running away will not punish you. But if you want to escape, you need to survive, grasp happiness, and see the next generation on our behalf."
"Right. Noble's right, I'd never go out with a suicide like this."
"Unfortunately, everyone, we will not escape. Until the end, it is a possession that follows General Noble, Deputy General Sacri!! In the first place, with General Noble's military, and Master Sacri's ability to support materiel, it's not that many things!!
"You're liked. Noble."
"You too, Sacri.... ugh. All right, then we have no enemies!! Prepare for battle!! Pull out the sword, hold the spear, pull the bow and hold the arrow, span the horse, set up a shield!!
"" "Whoa, whoa, whoa!
Everyone understood that this was the place to die.
But there's nothing to retreat from as one...
"In this number of differences, measures and so on mean something. If you are, you will go in at once and eat and break!! After that, you just have to fight each one of them. That would be our victory!! Let's go...... Assault!!
"" "Uh-oh!
That's how we were wiped out.
