153. Million Years of Star History
~ Ariake Perspective ~
"Now, everyone, this is a gathering." Now, let's start the strategy meeting. "
The voice of the star goddess Isis resounded.
And at the same time, you start to make eye contact with me.
(I'm not the secretary of the meeting or anything.)
I sigh.
Then,
"Hey, wait, wait, wait, let's do it with the goddess." Thanks to my Holy Sword, the Ariake barely defeated the Evil God!? Well, well, if I had done it, I wouldn't have let you escape!! "
A brave man cried out with a high voice.
This room is spacious with key members in the spacious conference room of the Southern Front base.
I agree with him.
"That's right. It's just a outpost." The next one will be a real showdown. Maybe I should get a little excited, too. "
Somehow, Vivia's expression turned grunting.
"Huh? That's the outpost?" Huh? Seriously? Huh? Huh? "
For some reason, his face turned pale, and he looked at the exit slightly as if he could not escape.
However, Lorelei is turning to the exit to restrict entry and exit.
When she turned her gaze towards the hero for some reason, he gritted his teeth with a sore expression on his face.
Hmm. What's the matter?
"It's unlikely that I was frightened by a battle of that magnitude..."
I'll tilt my neck.
It seems like you're a kind teacher to rule out that possibility first.
For some reason, Lacqueray was smiling like she saw something she liked. I still don't know.
Well, anyway.
“We have gathered here to prepare and share information before the battle with the evil gods.”
I know how to prepare, but what is information sharing, Ariake-san?
Isis nodded to Alicia's words.
"It's a bit of a story from mythology to modern times, so it might be boring, but I'll borrow your ears." I was working on a paper play, but I regret that the final showdown came a little early and it was not completed. "
"I wonder if there was anything else I could do."
Fenrir murmured in amazement, but the Star Goddess has a record. She doesn't move.
Well, we started talking with.
"First of all, think of this planet as a living thing." It's really a little different, but it would be faster for you to think so. And you can think of that evil god as a parasite that sucks the living blood of a creature called the stars. "
What does life's blood mean?
In response to Colette's question,
"Mana, the life energy itself of a so-called star." When the star reaches death after ingesting it, the evil god Nix drifts through the universe again in search of another target star. It's also called space cancer. "
Colette nodded in agreement and Isis continued the conversation.
"Well then, I'll tell you a myth." There's no chance of hearing myths from God.♪ "
By the way, is the tension of the other star goddess like that?
"Hmm, other star goddesses are even more silent." Personally, I think you should enjoy your life more.
"I'm sorry, I broke my hips." Please continue. ”
"Yes. First of all, Ariake-san, I am a mythical person who embedded the missing part (kakura) of Isis Immiselinos and secretly warped the time 1000 years later, counting from the time when the evil gods attacked me." First of all, is this all right? "
In those words,
"" "" "" What is it? "" "" "" "
Everyone's voice was heard.
"W-Was that so!?" Milord!? "
No, it's the first time I've heard of it?
"You're settling for that!?!?!"
"Well, maybe so..." However, when I think calmly, the Star Goddess is in front of me as a matter of course, so whatever I am, it's not surprising. Even my parents didn't exist. "
"Ah! Speaking of which, I didn't even see Milord's parents in the Holy City of Septeno." that's..... "
"Not in the first place. Well, it must have been a thousand years ago, but I don't think it's going to live." That said, since I was young, I don't remember..... "
"Ariake-kun's parents were at least here when the evil gods arrived." In other words, half of the land is submerged in the sea, and 30 percent of the population is lost. "
"Ji, isn't that 30% of the population!?"
"That's right. By the way, I myself was surprised and almost died." At that time, I embedded my missing part (imicelinos), transferred it to space-time 1,000 years later, and saved Ariake-san from death when he was still young. Ariake, can you use all your skills? "
That's right. This is your blessing, isn't it?
"In other words, I should say that I have met you as a star." I'm sorry to hear that. "
Aren't you saved?
When I tilted my neck, Isis continued to explain.
"At that time, I was fatally wounded when the evil gods attacked me." The defect was so great that I was eroded by a curse that I could not repair immediately. Therefore, I entrusted the authority to Ariake-kun. However, I could predict that the Evil God would devour me and this planet. So I dared to consume a lot of mana and buy time. ”
"Oh, I see. That's why you did the time-transfers. Given the enormous amount of magic used in the 1,000-year time-transfers, mana can be depleted from the ground."
"That's right. With this, the evil gods lost interest in this planet..." I'd like to say, but unfortunately, I never left. Rather, they began to manipulate the rise and fall of civilization in order to revive mana and make it fat and fat like a pig in a pig farm. It took about 1,000 years. It is not a very long time for God, but it is a long time for man. Therefore there was a time when such an evil deity seemed to be good. Therefore, it is worshipped as a calm god in the form of "God of Travel". Around that time, I'm a little upset. "
"Well, let's leave your personal feelings behind."
I told him to put it together.
"By daring to deplete the mana, the star gods and the star-eating gods fell into a state of inaction with each other." It was not until 1,000 years after my resurrection that the battle was resumed. "
"Yes, you are the key to this battle." Ariake-san, it's inevitable that the Evil God sent you at the right time to regain his power. ”
“We had a couple of other trump cards. For example, the Holy Sword, Langris."
Fearing that the Holy Sword, which had already been returned to Vivia, would be taken away again, he turned his bloodied eyes around with suspicion.
"It was originally developed by me for use against evil gods." However, it took a lot of mana to produce so many Holy Swords. That's why we're opening the gates of hell. Because the serpent's path is a serpent. "
"I see, you are the reason for the birth of Brigitte." In the meantime, apologize to Brigitte. She sealed it for 300 years. ”
"Thank you very much for your time." Worst of all, I thought I'd be stuck, but I was counting on you because humanity was levelling up more than I expected. ”
Huh?
I just said something that bothers you.
“What do you mean, levelling up above expectations?”
“Yeah, well, that explains it.”
The pong and the goddess hit each other,
“The human race on this planet is an evolving race. Moreover, not only as individual human beings, but also as entire races and descendants, with a little bit of skill and ability to inherit.”
That's why it was 1,000 years ago.
That's right!
The goddess nodded vigorously.
"Even if it grows by 1%, it will grow tremendously after 1,000 years. Modern people are much more powerful than they were in the Mythical Age! I can assure you! Brigitte, who kept sealing the gates of hell by herself, is many times stronger than the first hero party and the first demon king."
She said as she looked at the girl who sat leisurely.
"Mr. Fenrir! The only survivor of the First Warrior Party." You think so, don't you? "
"What are you saying, oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh!?" Sho, you're the first champion!?!!? "
Vivia screams, but the other person gives another impression.
"I see. I know you're the one who locked me in the cave for a thousand years and I'm wondering why..."
When he saw Giroli and the goddess, the goddess waved her hand in a hurry.
"No, I was planning to go to the rescue in 1,000 years." But I was helped by Alicia sometime, so I thought it was an all-okay. "
"Hah... well, let's do that later." That's right. Those brave men, anyway, this party of wise men is strong. The former and present heroic party is beyond the reach of our feet. I can guarantee that with this Fenrir. "
What's the matter!?
"Can I ask you one more thing than that?" It's a star device. "
"That's a bad way to say it. Well, yes, it's my fault I've been trapped for 1,000 years. Yes, please."
The battle between this hero and the demon king has been going on for 1,000 years, but this is the work of the evil god, isn't it?
Absolutely.
"Hah!?!? Because the demon king is evil, the hero will defeat him!?!?!?"
Vivia shouts with surprise. But the goddess explained palely.
“No, there wasn't such a rule 1000 years ago. With my mana depleted, it's one of the most efficient mana generating systems ever created by evil gods. The repetition of life and death, such as the flourishing and decline of civilization, and the bloodshed caused by war, creates mana. However, originally, the demon race is not an official name."
“How's it going?
When the goddess cut out her words, she reminded herself.
"The Illumina."
Having said that, I looked at the Demon King.
"The Illumina tribe. As the name suggests, the demons like the moonlight at night."
The demon king said, looking nostalgic,
"It's a name that was forgotten by humans long ago." But that's exactly what they're saying. Because it was a tribe that was discriminated against, even though I thought the evil gods were scattered, I had no choice but to rely on their faces. But I don't like people dying. It's kind of sad. So I don't think there's much war going on. Well, I think there were militant Demon Lords too, but I don't like them, and people die. So, maybe it was just a little bit of a miscalculation for the evil gods. It may have been one of the causes of less mana growth. "
"Oh, is that so!" Damn it, I was killing innocent demonic bastards..... "
That's right, Vivia regrets, but the Demon King feels mellow,
"No, no, no. The party of brave men of today was beating out of beauty because they didn't come at all." You guys are not on the front line at all, are you? "
Huh? Was that so?
"Speaking of which, you refused for various reasons, such as that the reward was not very good..."
It's been a long trip, so you've been a beauty foe, right?♪
"My flesh doesn't shine in remote places!" After all, completing S-Class quests and triumphing over them to show the masses this tremendous sweat and blood vessels is the main thing!!!! "
The heroic party speaks with enthusiasm.
The goddess really coughed.
I mean, a man with an evil soul that destroys demons by evil gods is a brave man.
"Hah!? I'm evil...!"
The hero yells something, but Lorelei quickly uses a Silence spell.
"But nowadays, the evil gods have made a big mistake." Ariake did not know that you were under my protection, and in the hope of being their guide, she tried to empower the All-Skill Rounders. At that time, I was originally supposed to suffer the curse of mental contamination from the evil god, but it was annulled by my protection. That's why the Brave Party became a pure disciple of Ariake. Thanks to Ariake-san's guidance, the evil god's intentions began to deviate unintentionally. Yes, all the evil gods' plans began to go crazy from here. "
As the goddess summarizes,
"You're not as evil as the hero expected, and sometimes you even helped defeat the evil god's minions, right?" And I didn't go to the dark clouds to defeat the demons. I became a disciple of Ariake. As a result, the evil gods stopped growing in mana and began to be very impatient! "
Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa! I'm not a disciple of Ariake!!!!!!! "
"Yes, please be a little quiet ~. It's important right now ~"
Alicia held a large piece of bread to the mouth of a brave man.
"But..."
Hmm, I see. I was convinced by the word of the goddess.
Is that why the evil god moved?
"Ah, that's enough, Sensei."
Pong and Laccarai clasped their hands as they were convinced.
What's going on?
On the other hand, the colette was poked.
In other words,
"The two heroes Vivia and the Demon King Squirrel Kiss have reduced the amount of bloodshed thanks to pacifism." In other words, the mana generation was delayed a lot. That's why the anxious evil god started to act from himself. "
"Oh, I see!" In other words, the Demon Forest, the Elf Forest, the Mimic Incident, the Goblin King Crusade, the Waldark Incident, the Sacred City Incident, all of that was for a reason!!! "
Conversely, he came out numb.
I left because I didn't have enough mana to eat.
On the other hand,
We have the Holy Sword, and some of us we can count on.
In other words, the chance to win......
"Um, a little bit, I'm sorry to be in the summary, Ariake-kun"
Yes?
All of a sudden I'm called and my neck is tilted.
But everyone's eyes are open.
Even the gaze of the brave Vivians poured on me.
The Holy Sword and the companions are important, but after all, we need to hear from the lead player before we can start.
The goddess said as Nikon Niko with an innocent face.
Ha-ha.
Oh, my God.
I sigh. I'm not Ms Park so much that I don't understand what she's looking for.
And, well,
"Listen to me, you guys."
Everyone here is nervous and listening to my words.
"As usual, no problem."
Some of the words leaned to their necks, as if they were beating out of the beat.
But I don't care, I keep on talking.
"Fighting with me is a mythical battle." Well, that's what I've been saying. It's not something I'm even more proud of right now. "
When I smile to reassure everyone,
“Besides, we've been trying for a thousand years to get rid of the mana-eating parasite.”
I'll make sure of it.
"Tomorrow's day. The future's day. To get a better view. Therefore, it is 100% impossible to lose to every evil god who drifts through the universe. That's because this great sage, Ariake Mihama, promises to win this battle.”
I separated the words,
"As usual, you should fight with my support." It's impossible to lose. "
I told you nothing but the usual pale tone and facts.
However,
"" "" "" "" "" "" "" "" "" "" "" "" "" "" "" "" "" "" "" ""
My friends, who responded more loudly than I expected, were convinced of victory and full of trust in me.
Come on.
Let's go.
Space cancer that has retreated to another dimension.
To Nix Tartaros, a dead (Singletta) space cancer.
