26 Stories "The Smile of the Flaming Emperor"
The golden ship reached the foothills (foothills) of Lindholm Spiritual Mountain, where it finally slipped and collapsed.
It was like it was made of dirt or something, that's how it broke.
"Well, you must have a lot."
The smelter of the golden ship, "Alchemist King" Shaw, looked right back at the Demon Kings, even as he saw a golden ship that had collapsed into a meltdown and turned his gaze to spare its golden color.
After looking around at them and smiling, one hand shows an elegant bowl of grace in his chest.
"What do you say? You didn't throw away the power of gold, did you?
It was such an elegant gift for those in a privileged position to show in the social world.
"I can't tell if it's gold or gold."
"Ha, both of them. Kim is the capital."
As Shaw laughed, while Merea returned a bitter laugh,
"- But really, I didn't throw it away. That's what I thought."
I was saying honest words.
That gold ship that brought us to the foot of Lindholm Spiritual Mountain while protecting ourselves was undoubtedly the savior to us.
Thus, Shaw, who briefly praised the gold honor, corrected the collar immediately and turned the story to the point.
"So, what do you want to do? Whether you're going to Lemuse or not, it's flat ground from here. I don't have any legs."
"Let's get out on the street first. But there was a mall a little further east."
It was Lilium who answered Shaw's voice uninterrupted.
"That's right, you're also excited about geography, Miss Lillium. It doesn't look like Dade was admitted to the prestigious park of the academic state."
"Don't flatter me. We don't have much time to waste right now. Mooseg's black clothes and black armor will follow us soon. We shouldn't even go to Lemuse at once, so maybe we should start by replenishing supplies by the city on the way. So, in order to get to that city, I need to get my feet on the road."
"This is like trying your luck already. I hope it fits well with the bowl."
"The status quo is already like the result of a beating. Anyway, I need to get to where people are first. It's the only thing that doesn't make a difference."
Lilium said so, taking the initiative and taking a step east.
If twenty-two demon kings had measures to travel long distances together, someone would have spoken up.
But I didn't raise my voice.
Alternatively, some individuals may have had the technique to do something about it, but they could not choose 'it'.
The guiding principle of "Running Together" was wandering in the compass behind everyone's brain.
So they decided to run silently.
Run in unison through the sparse mountain forests at the foot of Spiritual Mountain.
They ran, exposed themselves to the pale sunlight that crept between the leaves and the chilled air that was just clear in the mountain forest.
I just went down the mountain yet.
We managed to get through the Mooseg army's main unit, but now the Mooseg army will come after us.
Sadly, I wish they would bowl down with other nations that had been following themselves from other directions and crush each other, but given the strength of Mooseg's power, I couldn't have put my full width (thump) trust in that hope.
- Remusse is still far away.
◆ ◆ ◆
In a road commonly used by traders and traders known as the Trading Street, Merea saw other demon kings do well.
The most striking thing in particular was still the technique of Shaw.
I abruptly begin negotiations with the merchant who happened to take the street. No, no, I instantly got the wagon for every load the merchant was on.
Three in total.
It was like a merchant squad.
I could see Shaw handing over several gold coins from his pocket (two places) to the captain-like man of the merchant squad, and the owners under the carriage also had a really happy grin.
After waving his hand away from them, Shaw checked the contents of the load once again and said with a light sigh.
"Ugh, I'm out of good shape. - This shipment, if you sell it to the east in the current market, you're going to make a lot of money. They seem to be the type of merchants caught in the immediate interest, don't they? - Not yet."
The logic behind it was unknown to Merea, and the verbal aspect (according to the phrase) was not well understood in terms of quality as a merchant anyway.
Therefore, there was a desire to be heard, but I decided to keep my mouth shut because Shaw's eyes were filled with sharp eyes like wild beasts, and if I dared to ask him why, he would fall into the depths.
Curiosity kills cats as well. Such a phrase was floating behind Merea's brain.
Afterwards, the cubs and demon kings boarded a narrow (very) carriage, and the twins and others secured space by being strained (and) on both shoulders of Salman, the Fist Emperor, and managed to enter the three cars.
But the biggest problem here was what pulls the wagon these twenty-two miraculously boarded.
The original owners, the merchants, seemed to have pulled a wagon with a total of six horses, but I didn't even think that the horses could pull a wagon, exactly the same as the current situation in which the demons rode further on the load.
Approximately seven people per car.
Distribute the horses into three units, two at a time.
Again - just heavy loads.
- Well, let's use my flaming horse.
It was Lilium of the Flame Emperor that made his name at that time.
Rather than that, apparently Lilium had told Shaw that beforehand.
Shaw also initially worried slightly in terms of whether the carriage carrying twenty-two people would move decently or faster than it would run.
Naturally, physical warmth is possible if you let the horse pull it off, and it doesn't matter if it runs at the same speed as the worst.
In order to get the minimum usefulness, I still wanted to keep the six horses on hand, so I negotiated with the mouthpiece and somehow bought every six.
but still remains anxious.
Lilium was telling Shaw that there was some way to pull the wagon.
That's why Lilium was raising her voice as she left.
"Hey Hade, but don't be surprised"
He starts crushing something with a small voice while alerting the other demon kings to it.
It was Merea who realized exactly that was the activation chant of the procedure.
I wondered if she had begun her surgical chant with a small voice, and now a crimson flame flooded out of her hand (Y) and flew towards the ground as if she were a living animal.
The flame jumps a few degrees on the ground, and then gradually it gradually becomes an elephant.
It was a horse.
Elephanted with a crimson flame - a horse.
What's more, the horse seemed really alive.
Hissing, as if it were real, sprayed from the horse's nose with the breath of a red flame.
"Phew... Well, from here to the nearby city... I'm pretty tired, but it's the only way. I made up my mind."
Apparently it would also consume a commensurate amount of effort to maintain that flaming horse, and Lilium gave him a fed up look once, but immediately lifted his brow to a sharp corner as he had decided to.
"I'll show you the power of Crimson Flames of Life."
She shakes her flashy red hair like it's reopened,
"Pull, flaming horse!
Yes, I ordered the horse.
The Horse of Fire is instructed by Lilium to join his body and carriage. What a clever figure you are.
That's how when I got in shape, I started pulling a luggage wagon with a force that I didn't think was a very horse this time.
Even when the flaming body touched the outline, the outline did not burn.
Merea guessed that she could perform selective combustion operations.
The six remaining horses seemed frightened by that flaming horse and unable to pull a proper carriage, so in the end Elma and Salman, plus some more demon kings, rode it, and then the twins rode Salman's shoulder to reduce the weight of the carriage.
"Hey! It's not a curve! Don't get on my shoulder!
"Hang in there, Saloo." "Saloo."
"So stop calling me that!
"I'll keep my perimeter on guard"
Elma takes the lead in alerting herself to the surroundings, looking aside at Salman and the twins as if they were completely friends.
riding a horse. She was brilliant and glossy (ah so),
"He doesn't get horse sickness..."
A voice from such a slightly uneven point of view was raised by the Demon Kings.
"I might not be able to do that either..."
But only Merea was alone.
◆ ◆ ◆
The road (Michiyuki) continues while watching the surroundings.
So far, there has been no major change.
The fact that I was able to get my feet as soon as I got to the street of commerce and that Lilium's flaming horse is pulling the wagon with his squeaky leg strength is probably helping me earn some distance.
But if the Mooseg army flips by horses and other means of travel as well, they'll catch up soon.
No matter how flaming the horses, they will not thus be able to compete with Mooseg's military horses while pulling a lorry to load with the Demon King.
There were predictions like that.
Anyway, I want to step into the city somewhere before that to secure an even faster means of escape.
Where most demon kings thought so, there was a fuzzy and unexpected voice.
"- Let's get out of the first city without stopping by"
Shaw said that with a serious face.
Together, they unwittingly snap their necks at Shaw's words.
"Why?"
It was Merea who just asked.
"It's a small city. You may get supplies, but if you stop there, the Mooseg army will find out where you're going next."
"- I see."
"Take a detour to the next city. The second city is huge, so I think you can put away what you need in one go, and more importantly, you can be disputed (mauled) by people. The food to the second city will be covered by this deal I just bought."
Different vegetables and fruits were among the luggage carriages in which the Demon Kings were riding.
It's a bunch of traded goods that Shaw used to say, "If you sell it east, it'll be quite a price."
"Well, I'd like to judge them all, but I don't want to starve to death."
He was a shaw with a somewhat unfortunate face, but with his conviction that without life no gold could be collected, he was to eat them separately for the first time.
"By the way, it's a late payment. That's what I bought!
Unplugged.
'I knew he was a golden deceased...!' And the demon kings were raising their hippocratic voices.
As such, the problem of the various places was likely to be solved in this way. However, there were still major problems.
"Lilium, are you okay?
"Bi, bi..."
Lilium, which operates the flaming horse in a surgical fashion, gave him a rather tired look.
"Ecosystem manipulation is so tiring... The second city from here is around the" Principality of Neus-Gaus "or" Tot Republic ". I thought it was until the first city, so I was alarmed."
"Miss Lillium's flaming horse is giving me more speed than I thought, so that's the option that came into being. Of course, if Miss Lillium seems to be having a hard time, I'll stop by the first city as originally planned. But if you can poke it out here, like I just said, at least you can make a choice with Neus-Gaus and Tot."
Lilium seemed to know how far it was from here to the next city.
A big sigh leaks out of her mouth.
Fujirium looked at Merea,
"You were imitating Mooseg's technique back then, and you can't even imitate this?
I was asking that question.
That was an unexpected question for Melea.
Because Lilium herself, she was supposed to understand 'what it would not be possible to do'.
Maybe it was a wishful verbal revelation because I know I can't.
"- I can't. I can imitate the technique, but I don't have the nucleus of the technique."
"Well, you know very well that my sperm is a unique sperm."
"You tried it first. I was wondering if you could help me with Lilium."
"Oh...... that's the thing. - You were you, and you cared a lot."
Merea was good at the art ceremony enough to say she was "good at it" on these occasions.
I can't believe I'm not good at it here because I was trained by all those English spirits, and they praised me for being 'muscular' themselves, so I feel properly confident there.
So naturally, in an attempt to help Lilium first, I decrypted and tried to replicate her manipulation with the "Demonic Eye of the Surgical God (Flander-Crowe)".
But the operation didn't work.
I can put a magic sperm in it, but instead of flames, it doesn't even happen.
I had as much doubts as "maybe" at the time I was deciphering the surgical ceremony, but it was indicative.
Melea was aware that her procedure was just a thing that wouldn't work without passing through a "special sperm."
"Call it an intrinsic spermatozoa. Sometimes people have those special spermatozoa."
"Yeah, I know the story"
But I don't have it.
Lilium's spermatozoa is probably specific to the family of the Flame Emperor.
There was no clan of the Flaming Emperor among Merea's parents.
I might have succeeded to that factor if I had, but I can't do anything about it.
Merea was beginning to realize from around there that she could do nothing but fight.
The thought of impudence springs from the bottom of my chest.
You perceived the inside of such a melea from your expression.
"You're fine, stay put. - None just now! I was careless. There's no one who can do anything. I'm so relieved there's something you can't do either."
Merea accidentally laughed at herself when she realized Lilium was trying to inspire herself.
"Besides, assuming you can help here, in that case, there's some magical issues, right?
Magic, which is an in vivo spermatozoa, naturally decreases if used. It also recovers, but not at such a rate that it recovers quickly.
That was no exception with Melea.
Therefore, by exercising the procedure at this point in time, there is no possibility that the gas will be depleted at various times.
"To be honest, I'm not good at fighting. So I guess I'll rely on you over there. Instead, I'll hang in here. He's got the right material!
Lilium stretched her chest and laughed at Merea to show it.
He had a naive, sunny, bright smile.
I saw the giggle of a girl who could cheer me up better watching, and something warm spread to the bottom of Melea's heart.
Then Lilium puts her fist around Merea's heart as she softens,
"Okay? It calms my heart when I'm sure someone will protect me when I have to. This is a terrible situation, but we can stay calm. … so"
Look directly into Merea's red eyes,
"When you have to - protect me"
Lilium had a pranky grin at the end as she sweated on her forehead.
Merea, to her grin like that,
"- Okay. Be sure to protect them."
I was somewhat likely to say so, but I said it without getting lost.
Later, Merea will recall her words many times at this time.
Melea herself had a blurry feeling that the words would inspire her to make a certain decision.
