Homncrus is NOT ROM - What Homncrus Has Returned Less Being In Another World - (WEB Version)

I was protected by the Eisenburg Guard.

The leader present at the scene was Viscount Thomas Pearlton.

It's with those who keep this Eisenburg.

Currently, the original ruler, the Count, leads the army of the Demon King's Crusade, which seems to mean his absentee, but he must be brilliant because he is young enough to be entrusted with this important base.

Nevertheless, in his position, he is nothing but my enemy.

Because he keeps information like visions from the people who have pleaded guilty to him being the bad guy.

Fortunately, he hasn't noticed Sir Thomas or anyone around him that I'm being engraved in magic.

I was checked for belongings, but I only have a knife or a forged ID spot, and nothing connects me to them killed, not to Master Iscarios or Lexie.

Sir Thomas was asked a variety of questions straight away, but my questions about my identity were within my assumptions, and I cannot answer them because I have not been asked anything about them who were killed or about their evil deeds.

I'm a little impressed with Lexie's arm for letting her send in on her own with little information.

Of course I'm not going to make a difference in my appreciation of her.

And Sir Thomas cut up his interrogation of me and invited me to dinner.

In a small high hill, almost in the centre of Eisenburg, was its castle.

It's only up to the third floor, whether it's a castle or high, and a fort might be more appropriate.

Apparently this was also Sir Thomas' living space, as well as a dining room with a large table.

But only me and Sir Thomas are on that table.

Sir Thomas' family apparently lives in the capital of Santa Monia and has been staying in this city for two years for a mission.

He was in a good mood for saying that it had been a long time since he had been at a table surrounding himself with others.

Meanwhile, I couldn't get my meal going with the shock of seeing a corpse...

"And what are you going to do with that?

Can you send a sentence to pick me up at my wife's place?

Then you can stay here. "

I smile back at Sir Thomas's invitation.

"I appreciate the sentiment, but I'll be back at my parents' house once.

Now I'm going to ask someone I can trust to show me around. "

"Right...

Well, that's okay, too.

Yeah, well, why don't I put my men on?

Unaccommodating, but obedient to orders. "

"No, I'll take the carriage home.

We'll have an adventurer's escort. "

Yes. There is no single element that makes this one suspicious at the moment, but I want to get out of Lord Thomas' sight quickly.

As long as we can get inside ifestio territory, it's this one...

"Excuse me."

A soldier in a helmet entered the room and eared something to Lord Thomas.

"What the hell!? That's for sure!?

Lord Thomas raised his voice and rose his seat and went straight out of the room.

After a while, Lord Thomas ordered me to come back and follow him.

Walking down the hallway, he explains the situation.

"The crusaders who left this city were destroyed.

It seems that the barely surviving soldiers are on their way to this city, but the Demon King's Army is pursuing them later.

Without a doubt, this city will be raided "

"Shh, is it a raid!?

"Oh, based on the number of enemies, there is no line called power reconnaissance.

He's seriously going to drop this city. "

"So, are you okay?

Can you prevent it with the residual force of this city!?

"Whatever. Eisenburg is a castle fortress in difficulty.

Easy to protect and hard to blame.

Whether there's a tenfold difference in strength or you can bounce it back!

Lord Thomas is straining his chest.

But I'm not that optimistic.

"The calculations made by man in the battle against demons cannot be counted."

It's a tactic passed down from antiquity.

Nevertheless, we can only hope for a victory for Eisenburg.

There is also a risk that if you escape into a grudge, you will meet an enemy marching on, beyond knowing the enemy's sphere of influence.

In other words, in order for me to return home, Lord Thomas will have to defeat the imminent Demon King's Army.

Out on the balcony I stare far.

I saw the shadow of a demon illuminated by the moonlight approaching from the horizon.

At the beginning of the war, he took advantage of being surrounded by high and strong walls, limiting demonic intrusion paths and taking tactics to destroy each.

I don't know the details, but they probably succeeded in sharpening the number of enemies.

But the Demon King's Army starts putting in large demons, causing more damage to the walls of the castle, and the defense forces are dispersed.

A defense force that puts its power into the Crusaders and is understaffed does not have a number of advantages over the target and is rapidly depleted.

A senior Demon clan, believed to be an enemy army general, joins the battle as it strikes a chase.

I saw that from a telescope in the fort.

Red skin in musculoskeletal shape, bat-like feathers grown on the head.

Overall, they are very similar in shape to humans, but the harrowing look of sharp fangs and white monochromatic eyes instinctively make them feel that they and we are incompatible creatures.

When he put his hand over his head, a large, golden, rocky mass of magic appeared.

I've been trying to wield that and throwing it at the defense.

Soldiers swallowed by the consolidation of their magic melt like mud dolls exposed to waves.

The magic that landed on the ground and on the walls explodes with a roar, leaving all things ashamed.

The Demon Clan continued to produce and throw its ruthless mass of magic indefinitely.

And the demons were imminent right in front of the fort the night after the third day of the war.

It should be noted that the downtown area outside the fort is already occupied by demons.

Soldiers, civilians, old people, young people, men, women, children...

Demons have killed me.

The way the demon kills by hand is grotesque more than human.

Pull your body away with the force of digits. Rinse.

And it seems that each human eating demon has a preference, which varies from eating only meat, eating up to bone, dragging out built-in and eating.

As a result, there are carcasses all over the city that you can't tell you were human.

It drifts all the way inside a fortress with a backward smell of blood and fat.

It's a hellish sight, but it's undisputed reality.

Because heroes never appear refreshed like stories, and people who survive just wait to die.

Sir Thomas' appearance has also changed.

The beard is stretched, the bright brown hair is filled with gray hair in just three days, and the stern face has no shadow to see and looks old for about twenty years.

I thought I was fascinated by Reaper.

Because they were somewhat alike just before Dear Katrine's death.

The day before her death, I didn't even take the meal I brought with me, and I lay low in bed all the time.

There was no shadow of me when I wore makeup on a few scales, combed my hair, and was as viscid and familiar as if I were a model for a painting.

The makeup was grated, bears appeared under the eyes, pimples were seen where the skin arrived, cheeks were sprinkled, and the hair was sore.

They were showing me that. I was thought to be the first person to die from appearance.

Nostalgic, indelible memories depend on your chest.

Is there not enough nervousness to say that this is the situation?

No, what's not enough is fear of death?

Painful and painful things are horrible, but I don't really feel terrified that death will come.

It's painful not to be of service to Master Iscarios, but I will give up.

After all, I don't have enough temper to live in the face of difficulties.

Ironically, Sir Thomas, who was supposed to have that temper, was struck and lurked deep in the fort.

"If this is going to happen, I should have invited you to dinner or something like that.

I should have escorted you to your fiancée immediately, or sent you home.

No, it wasn't just that.

The people of the city should have gotten away with it too.

I'm so smug that the Crusaders are going to pay back their losing army opponents under my command. "

Sitting on the floor, he's squeaking like a penance.

"I thought military men had to fight for their lives, it was a tough job.

But when I look at you, I wonder if what's really tough is fighting the heavy pressures that could kill a lot of people depending on what they do.

I kept my mouth shut about what I thought.

Because I thought I no longer needed comfort or encouragement.

"Is there a soldier I know who did that?

He's been asking me.

Naturally, it was on my mind.

"Do you know General Iscarios?

I've had a little connection with that one, and I've been doing better since I was a kid. "

When I said so, Sir Thomas opened his eyes.

"Yi, he said it was Iscarios!?

No way... those sorcerers... "

Oh, have I said something extra?

Maybe they've noticed I'm a spy.

Well, I don't mind now.

"... Lord Merliah.

Did Iscarios order you to come to this city? "

"Yep. It was another person who gave the order directly..."

I suddenly regained my nervousness, and I'm under barometric pressure for how he is, and I confess.

"Well... then he was starting to notice too...

If Eisenburg is occupied by the Demon King's Army, the Empire and Santa Monia will be separated.

Then I'll already have a toothpick... "

He puts his hand on his chin, looks rugged and runs something through his mouth.

After a while, he got up.

"Lord Merliah.

Could it be that you're keeping something from those sorcerers?

…………

I will be silent.

I was engraved on my body, but I don't know the language of liberation, so I can't show it to you.

But he took my silence as an affirmation, and he looked at me kickingly.

"I'm sorry, but let me bet on that."

"What?"

"Get out of this city and go back to Iscarios, but good"

That said, he stood up, pulled my hand and started walking.

He explains as he walks.

The city's sewer is connected to an underground cave from which you can get out of town.

That there is a hidden door protected by [disguise] witchcraft in the endless underground lake, its magical release chant.

And about the return route to Ifestio.

Until just now, like a lie, he tells me he's hazy.

"If there's such an escape route, why didn't you use it early?

"Because I didn't have a choice to run.

The Counts on their way to the Demon King's Army crusade killed them.

Both the men who tried to protect Eisenburg and the citizens who resisted to the end were all dead.

I can't face them if I survive with congratulations. "

He answered that with a straight eye.

Objection, but keep your mouth shut.

"Besides, the information on this loophole is military secrecy at the highest level.

You can't let the general public use you, and if they know, they have to end it.

If you survive safely, I suggest you keep your mouth shut. "

I've been naturally explained things that are noisy.

Before the door leading behind the fort, all the survivors were gathered.

They are all armed, but that number is not enough for twenty.

Sir Thomas speaks to them.

"I'm going to open this door.

Do something about the demons around the door.

If me and her pop up, shield yourself and defend yourself. "

Take a breath, he goes on.

"This is the last order.

So die without calculating the rest. "

He said that without hesitation.

And to my surprise, the soldiers didn't even show pieces of upset.

Copy that.

And I aligned my mouth.

There is no grandeur there, no exhilaration in trying to decorate death.

Calm as if you don't even say it's one task, including your own death.

"Unlock it!

Removing the marutai that was on it pushes a group of little ghosts (goblins) from the outside.

One of the soldiers stuck a spear out at that group and stormed it.

Beaten and cut from all sides, the protective equipment is damaged and the flesh splashes to rise.

And the moment that body was swallowed up by a group, it blew up with white light.

The light of the explosion blew the bodies of the little ghosts (goblins), creating a pompous space where the soldiers were.

Go on, another soldier will penetrate with a spear as well.

And similarly involved the little ghosts (goblins) around him and blew himself up.

"Dear Thomas! This!?

"It's the magic of [suicide bombing] that runs the magic in your body.

Most of our soldiers have mastered. "

While Sir Thomas is explaining to me, one more, one more and the soldiers will storm and self-destruct.

Terrible......

I can't get in without thinking so.

Fighting with your life is a soldier's duty, and this will not change the Empire or Santa Monia.

But do you think this country thinks soldiers are things that make you master witchcraft based on the assumption that you will give up your life?

By the suicide bombing of half the soldiers, the road was cut open.

I got the remaining soldiers there ahead of me, and I went outside the fort so Sir Thomas could pull me off.

There are countless demons surrounding us.

Soldiers fly towards the demons.

Now we don't blow ourselves up, we're attacking with weapons from the front.

The movement is not inferior to that of an imperial soldier, but rather even seems superior.

I don't understand why you treat these brilliant soldiers like bombs.

But many are passive, in no time they will be mortally wounded and unable to move.

Still, just before it ran out.

Turn that body into a white light and take your enemies on the road.

"Dear Thomas! They are!"

"Don't wander around! They're made that way from the beginning!

Sir Thomas says so and takes me forward.

And find a ditch at the foot of the fort's walls.

"Lord Merliah! Dive into this ditch!

Don't let the enemy catch you up!

I go in to hide my body in the ditch, as they say.

"Thomas, hurry up."

I called on him, but at that time, I was confronted with a man-shaped demon of a soft-bodied shape that would be nearly three meters in front of him.

"I risk my life here to take it on!

Lord Merliah, I entrusted you with the rest!

Sir Thomas screams, jumping at the demons.

As his sword pierced the demon's abdomen, the demon curled with a barking scream.

Sir Thomas pulled out his sword and went around beside him to make another blow, paying off his sword.

But that sword hits the demon's elbow and gets bounced.

In addition, I grabbed Sir Thomas in disfigurement with huge hands and slammed him straight to the ground.

Sir Thomas' armor broke and splashed, and fragments flew near me.

The demon lifts his body over his own head.

My bones are broken, my hands and feet are drooping without strength, and my nose and mouth are crushed.

His eyes, which were intact, matched mine.

Those eyes, struck by despair and vanished, seemed to blame me.

I tried to escape from his eyes and proceeded with my body crawling into the back of the ditch, into a dark ditch with a lid.

Anyway, I'm desperate to scratch my arm and move on.

I was temporarily feeling like I was going to accept death, and now I'm being driven by fear.

I'm really full of things I don't know.

You don't know anything about living or dying.

I can't believe you entrusted (...) su (...) to me like that... I'm going to be frightened by the blindness of seeing Sir Thomas's people.

Isn't it the kind of person who has a family and can risk his life for others who has to live?

Without breathing, I move on.

There's no sign of anything following us later.

It was just that time before, before, and when I was making you feel bad.

I didn't notice the hole downstairs and got myself out of there, I fell into the hole and for a few seconds my body swam through the universe and slammed me to the hard ground.

"Huh!!

Legs...... pain runs on my ankles.

I try to get up, but I fall without force in my right ankle.

It's my first fracture in my life.

Besides, there's no faint light around you. In the dark.

I guess I could reach the underground cave Sir Thomas was talking about, but I don't even think it was dewy enough to help.

I can't walk anymore, how can I step through a cave and escape without anyone's help?

My spine gets cold at the feeling of death that I can stand in.

I, too, seem to have been fascinated by Reaper.

Then, how many days have passed?

I've already run out of the slightest food and moisture I was carrying.

I've included it in my mouth to drink groundwater, but it's not very human drinkable.

More and more lost health.

Consciousness that comes to haze.

And a sense of loneliness.

I thought I'd lost the delicate feeling of missing one a long time ago.

But I refuse to be alone with my body and mind weakening in this cold darkness.

It was just a life of being flirted around, but it's too unreasonable for the end of it to be such a lonely thing...

I want to be taken care of.

I want to be protected.

I want to be saved.

Even I want to be sweet.

I want to be spoiled.

I want someone to stay with me.

I'm scared... I'm scared to die without anyone knowing...

Pessi. Pessi.

Something is tapping my cheek.

And you feel your eyelids receiving a slight light.

"Ugh... hmm?

When I opened my heavy eyelids, the cave that was supposed to be dark was lit with small lights.

And people were leaning in front of me.

The guy had a neat, beautiful face like an angel painted, and I fell in love for a moment.

The scratchy combat clothes that are disproportionate to the adorable face are probably Santa Monia's.

This man would be a Santa Monia soldier.

"You can stay asleep. Stay conscious.

Sleeping creatures are hard to handle. "

What is the abusive tone? Voices on the back seem to be children who have not been able to change their voice.

But that power that gently lifted me to my shoulders belonged to a successful man.

"Help... will you?

Is it because you are weak?

What made me feel so full of sweet expectations that I wanted to laugh at myself like that?

Yet,

"I don't know if I can help, but I'll do whatever I can"

He said that without a thing.

Is this... a dream?

A convenient dream to see before you die.

Yes, a pale dream similar to that happy miracle picked up by Master Catherine.

Even if it's a dream, I'm happy...

The fireplace fire is shaking small.

Me and Master Iscarios sat lit by that light.

"Cheng Cheng, did you cross to Soen to Bern Delta?

Correct. The road is now completely sealed off by the Demon King's Army.

None of the others who left Santa Monia have been able to return. "

I have informed Master Iscarios of my journey since I reached Eisenburg.

But stay down about Mr. Cruz, Mr. Blade, and Mr. Kukri.

Escape Eisenburg, helped by soldiers who don't even know Santa Monia's name.

Luckily through the woods without being caught by demons, we arrive in Amarchia.

Redeem the jewels, etc. you borrowed when you escaped Eisenburg, build a road bank, board a smuggling ship and go to Sauen.

Hire adventurers in Sauen and cross the sea together to reach Bern Delta.

Then I combined the carriage with the walk to reach the Imperial City, I explained.

When Master Iscarios finished listening, he took a small breath,

"You're lucky you did.

It is no exaggeration to say that there was God's protection "

And I said.

God's blessing...... indeed it may be so.

When I first saw Mr. Cruz, I thought he was an angel.

Of course, not everything went well.

I lost Mr. Balzac's people.

Couldn't save the church people in Lake Forest.

But Mr. Cruz did everything in his power to help me, as I said the first time.

You made my wish come true.

You never would have dreamed of being betrayed.

Whatever reason you gave me, I've done something I'm not allowed to do.

"Ah... Lord Almeria?

Hey, what's up?

Is Master Iscarios surprised?

Why, for a moment, I thought, but soon I knew why.

I was in tears.

A tear spilled from your cheek rests on the back of your hand that rests on your lap.

I don't have the strength to reveal it.

"You're tired.

Take the night off already.

Tomorrow, we will unlock the engraving.

I don't know what's depicted, but it did a great job. "

Master Iscarios worked so hard for me.

You should have wanted this word more than anything before you embarked on your journey, but you're not so sentimental.

That made my tears unnecessarily bitter.
