110 Stories "Proof of the Demon God"
"Hey, before we make a deal, let me just clear one question"
Caesar was giving Shaw and Salman those words alternately.
There's something Caesar still doesn't understand.
How can Salman, who should have been hypnotized by the "Enchanted Demon's Eye" on that occasion, be in this place?
"That's not what I can handle at first sight. The power of that demon eye is quite difficult until it passes, but once it passes, it's very powerful."
"I guess."
"I got hit," Salman said with his head on.
"And when combined with the best beauty named Juliana, the difficulty until it passes is also much easier. Because she can easily attract attention.... and this time the setting was perfect. You were fascinated by the power of her demon eyes."
It should have been.
"Oh, they did. And when you do, you go to bed."
"And yet, how could..."
Caesar doesn't know the answer to that as if.
Caesar knows the power of The Enchanted Demon's Eye.
I also knew that while that was powerful, its power would weaken if I applied it to the same person more than once, or that I could not hang on to the charm unless I continued to steal its eyes for a few seconds.
That's why I matched it - creating a situation where I would focus all my gaze on her and set the scene.
It should have been perfect.
In fact, all those who were there, including Merea and the others, were drooling over their heads.
I was going to make sure of that.
"Caesar, take a look at this"
Now Shaw pinched some pieces of paper on the desk with his finger, and let them drip in front of Caesar's eyes.
"What's this?
Caesar runs his gaze on that paper, as he is told.
On that paper was a complex geometric pattern painted in black ink.
Probably something that tugs into the surgical ceremony.
"As you would expect, this is a surgical ceremony. Let's call it a fragment of a certain technique."
"What the hell is this?"
"Don't you notice?
From the other side of the raised piece of paper, Shaw made a face and showed it with an even lighter neck.
Caesar still doesn't know what Shaw is trying to say.
"Well, don't you think you'll ever take a closer look at this in your faction?"
But when I hear that Shaw say it, Caesar finally finds out.
"That, no way"
"Yes, actually, this is the magical eye surgery ceremony of the captivating queen. - Of The Enchanted Devil's Eye. Well, this is still pretty fragmented."
If you ask me, the surgical formations depicted on that paper are, by the way, missing parts.
Though I can tell by the big mess that it's a surgical ceremony, some places are heavily shredded, and I can't exactly predict the completion diagram.
"Where is this stuff..."
"We had an excellent informant. Finally, some people may also have brains that accurately complement that information. If I did, I'd be a flashy haired woman. He's very good."
Shaw spills "Well, it's a little too hard to tone and connect my flank," at the end of the word.
"Such a brilliant girlfriend sent this document to the City of Arts this time using a windbird. - I'm really glad I bought a windbird dedicated to the Union of Demon Kings (Meer-Nesaia) for a time of need. If you're ready, how dare you?"
"How long have you been educating me? Were you making me remember the smell?
"I was letting you. It's inconvenient not to have one. I borrowed a few from His Majesty Harsim, because that one was growing too much to keep the smell up to the outside, even if it was good for domestic use in Remusse. I remember too much of the other smell of Lemuse, and I remain a little anxious to see if I can fly straight this way. - Anyway, for times like this, there's not one wind bird that can follow you all the way out."
"Ha, I see. You've got a lot on your mind, too."
"Well, even if I do, there's no way Miss Lillium will lose sight of this area, so I'm doing it with a lot of ease. I'm making money."
"Haha, you have a lot of faith in Lilium. But if he's not alone, our organization won't be standing around."
Salman does his hand on his jaw and I'm curious about the idea.
Shaw said in the meantime, turning again towards Caesar.
"Whatever it was, there was something like this in the document that was sent to me."
"You've often found something like that, my friend. The Enchanter is not that famous Demon King. That's how visibility drops compared to the puppet king in today's play"
"She was looking at the literature in the nearby field from one end. For weeks now. Even when it came to nearby, he reached for what was once stored inside a royal castle in one country. Besides, I originally anticipated some ability from the word on the assumption that the Enchanted Queen was the Demon King when I came to the city this time. So it would have been easier to summarize the direction of the investigation to some extent as well. Nevertheless, I also admit that it was pretty much too much"
Shaw finally rubbed the paper he had in his hand on his desk again, relaxing his tired arms.
"But suppose I just found out the magic trick of the demon's eye, and there's nothing I can do."
"No?"
"What?"
Caesar accidentally gives a barbaric voice to Shaw's immediate answer.
"There was a chance, however, that there was nothing we could do. I'll admit that, too. But on the contrary, there was a possibility that something could be done."
"Stupid, it's a magic eye surgery ceremony. The demonic eye does not involve movement in the depiction of the surgical ceremony, and it activates fairly quickly"
All Caesar says is, "There's nothing I can do." Let him raise his hands in a lofty gesture. Then I went on further.
"Even if it was called" The Art God ", the best magician in the world, it would be impossible to put an inversion formula on the demonic eye. Even if we could decipher the surgical formula, we wouldn't be able to generate the surgical formula for inversion in time."
"Haha, I wonder. Shall I ask what he said next time?"
"... hmm?
Caesar puts his neck around Shaw's words.
"Oh, here's the story," Shaw waved.
"True, if it was [the magic god], it might have been. But as you just said, the magic eye surgery ceremony is only a technique in some ways. In principle, disabling is possible if the inversion technique is applied. - Oh, it's not my word, it's his."
The word 'he' was easily converted from the course of previous stories to the word Merea in Caesar.
"... wait a minute. Even though the flip-flop method is still in the world, it's quite a dream story even for me now. So I said," Suppose. "
"Is there any left?
Shaw laughed with pleasure.
Caesar's expression clouds, by contrast.
"Are you kidding me? The Surgical God died without leaving a child behind. Both the devil's eye, which became the gall of the inverting technique, and the know-how of its surgical technique crushed the Flander-Crow-Moozeg at the end. Besides, it's a substitute that I could use because it's that genius. Normal people don't have enough skill or knowledge."
"That's right, you're pretty profound around there, too. Were you longing for the god of art?
"I don't admire the gods themselves. Because he's not what regular people should be aiming for. - When I was a little girl, I just liked the subject book."
"It was, it was.... but then why don't you pin it for a little while? Remember how he looked."
That's all I heard, Caesar finally hacked.
While having a conversation, I had remembered the appearance of the [god of art] portrayed in the hero Tan and discovered there the decisive commonalities with Melea.
- Red eyes.
"- Impossible. It just so happens."
"That's what they all say at first."
"Still, it's impossible"
I was realizing the word was strange as I said it myself.
"Well, ask him later. Anyway, assuming the enchanting queen we're chasing this time was a charmer, I asked him." If the other person has used this magic eye surgery formula, can you fight it with an inversion formula? "I'm pretty bummed, though."
"... what an answer"
Caesar asks with a surprised look.
Shaw said with a shrugged shoulder and a bitter smile.
"'If you have two seconds'"
"This is ridiculous."
Caesar's eyes just popped open.
"Says, 'I've seen something similar. I can probably react if I see the real thing after seeing this fragment, although it's not something I can respond to immediately because it's fragmentary. He said to pay special attention to this kind of procedure, because he beat the measures with a lot of focus'. - Reaction? It's almost a reflex, isn't it? I can't imagine what kind of surgical thinking is being done in my head."
"If you really put together an inversion formula against the first demonic eye surgery ceremony on the spot, it's not human anymore."
"But apparently I let him try"
With a mouthful as if Shaw himself had doubts about the word, it was let go.
Hearing Shaw's words, Caesar silenced for a few seconds.
It was as if I would struggle to digest the word somehow.
"... you didn't expect that, did you, in anticipation of this deal with me?
And finally, Caesar was off topic, as he said it was no longer useless to just listen to him on that point.
"Well, there are some aspects to that, but this time I'm a strangely strong stepper myself. I might have hit some kind of hand along the way if I did have a completely bad minute, but it wasn't until after I had a close meeting with you that this surgical fragment arrived in the first place. I showed this to Merea because before we went to the Rave-Opera, that 'breakup'."
"Is this why you were calling Melea back then... I knew it, I couldn't believe it. I can't believe you showed such courage."
"It's not courage. Even without this, Merea had to do something about it. As I said earlier, I have trouble getting you to stay at this point."
"What do you think? If it's really bad, I'm starting to feel like I'm going to bend my policy until I rebel (cheeks) the deal. Look at you now."
"If so, your eyes are a pit."
Said Shaw, waving like a pain in the ass. And Caesar says, "There's no art in the blindfold."
"That's a good point now. So, let's get back to it - I had insurance too. Because all of this was a countermeasure that wouldn't have been established if it hadn't been for that" Enchanted Queen "to be a" Enchanted Demon ". I mean, I knew she was a charmer. I was actually getting information from other than your tricks."
"Where did you sniff it from?"
When Caesar asked, he removed another piece of paper from under the paper of the surgical fragment that Shaw had shown Caesar earlier.
That's a lot of quality vegetable paper compared to the paper in the surgical fragment, and the letters depicted there are also a lot more masterful.
And what was written on that paper,
"'The Queen of Enchantment is likely to be the Enchanter'...?
It was such a wording, almost definitive.
Shortly afterwards, Caesar realizes that a more notable letter is depicted in the lower corner of its contents.
One of the questions I've had so far, 'Impossible', was the letters that dissolve.
"-" From Hersim-Kud-Lemuse, King of Lemuse ""
Caesar found his mouth trembling.
After seeing this, I remembered the rumors of that Remuse-vs-Mouseg war I first heard.
The man pushed Mooseg away by himself.
If, indeed, he did, the man would have made Remusse create an unparalleled debt.
The same would apply not only to Remusse, but also to the three countries concerned there.
If so, I can also be somewhat convinced that Lemuse has cooperated with the man and sent him such a document this time.
"Well, I don't think you're mistaken, because the king's seal on this letter is real."
Caesar realized late that the proof of the doubt he had was made by the name of the Head of State depicted on the paper and the king's seal pressed next to him.
