"What kind of abilities do you intend to use in prayer?"

"Black Rose", who consolidated the policy of competence early on, said something.

"... please don't hesitate."

You're not staring at me, are you?

You don't regret it, do you?

"Well, in my case, I think it's" Kiri ".I mean, there's nothing else to do. "

"[Giri]?... Are you going to use VRMMO to make a dual sword?"

That's someone else.

"But it's a meaningless pseudonym."

"Unless it's in Japanese."

”Kiri... slash... oh, I see”

I take the knife out of the shadow, hurt my skin and bleed.Darken it with the Dark Magic's "Rule".

Blood is part of my flesh and cannot be "dominated".However, once it is ejected out of the body, it will be treated like a corpse and can be "controlled" or incorporated into Weapons Smelting as a material.

However, "controlling" blood has never meant much before."Remote operation" made it difficult to operate the liquid.Not at least the level of operability you can use in battle.

But combined with spell magic... I wonder if I can do it.

Nevertheless, I don't really understand spell magic either.We only know the unspecified rationale for filling the "name" frame with "medium".... well, it's terrible to ask for so much reasoning about curses and famous things.

I don't really know if I'm going to do what I expected.

"Yu. I would like to cut this black blood into a blade and slash the opponent, but I wonder if that's possible with curse magic."

"... I've been left behind for a long time.What kind of black blood? "

"The [reign] of [Dark Magic]." It's difficult if it's liquid, but if it's solid, it can be operated remotely. "

"I don't know what it is."Protect" or something? "

That's fine.

It's not at such a stage that you can use your unknown abilities to make you jerk off.

And when I gave Yu a rough explanation, I was put on my back from the side.

(What?)

"(Can I tell her that?)"

"(Well, that's fine.)"

I don't think I'll talk to anyone else.

Whatever she was saying, she scratched her cheeks and Arya stared at us.

"(You trust me a lot. (See her)"

"(No, I trust you in the first place....)"

"How many of you are sneaking around?"

Yuniu frowned and asked. Arya leaves.

"No, it's not a big deal. Do you think you can do better than that?"

"Well, I think we can. Because it's a pseudonym, I don't think it's effective as a" frame ", but it's a state that drives the ability to use it originally.However, if you don't try the power, you won't know. "

All right. Let's do this for now.If you use the word after "kiri" and tear it, it will improve versatility.

They say there are only repetitive exercises left.While saying the chanting of spell magic with your mouth, you can imagine the phenomenon caused.It is also important to put magic into it.

In my case, although I can't use it in combat, I can use the liquid "remotely" to some extent, so it's easy to grasp the feeling of practice.

The problem was rather Arya.

"You're making it a lot more complicated."

When I heard that I was consulting with Yuniu, the spell magic of "Black Rose" was long, and there were many necessary steps.That is, the effect you want is greater than her abilities and name, and complicated to support it.

"The importance of prayer is speed and versatility, right?It sounds pretty good to me. "

"In other words, my nickname or pseudonym, even if it's complicated by visibility, may not be a strong ability."

Aim for the Ten Virtues Knife.

My abilities are generally versatile.Combine them to create an infinite number of hands.The most complicated thing to prepare for is Stone Barrett, which is like practically no chanting.

The "Black Rose" that Arya is currently conceiving has two or three steps to activate.

First of all, you may omit this, but you must scratch the other person.It is fine if it is originally scratched.

Then scratch yourself and atomize the blood to fill the surroundings.They take their own blood from their wounds.

Sing at the end and express your abilities.Black bars grow from the opponent's wounds and restrain them.It seems that Arya intends to make a variation on the chant.That will ensure minimal versatility.

... what's that supposed to mean, fogging blood?I don't know.

When I asked Arya about it, she said it was an increasing trait sometime.Don't you know when she can do that?

Arya is my vampire vassal, and if I grow stronger, some power will flow into her.Nevertheless, I thought it would only increase my status, but there may be times when I have characteristics that are close to my skills (...).... I don't think my skills will be inherited by the Rock.

Does atomizing blood look like a degraded version of the "black wind" to me?Alternatively, there are many cases where vampire abilities originally have foggy abilities (or creative abilities), so there is also the possibility of their subordinate abilities.

However, simply atomizing blood is not particularly powerful.She didn't even think of how to use it, so she didn't bother telling me.

... well, it's a trait that might not even make a show of it.

"Anyway, Arya doesn't have the ability to be similar to a restraint, right?"How do you practice? "

"It seems that there is something similar to dark magic, so I would like to refer to it."

"There must be a complex of darkness and magic"

Is there a combination with existing magic?It was a free magic spell.There are a lot of restrictions on that, and it's hard to master.

"Why is restraint so effective?"

"When I targeted a large number of people, I thought a realistic line might be around here.... hey, prayer is not a very big opponent of many people. "

Oh, you're trying to cover it.It is true that in the current situation, the hand will be narrowed down if it is versus a large number of people.I mean, it's limited to brain muscle destruction methods such as stone barrets, knife fragmentation, and bullet shots.

"... hm?"

... it is a mystery that Yuniu is smiling deeply.

─ ─ McCard Imperial Capital ─ ─

Except for a few brave people from different countries in the conference room, they are surrounded by round tables and gathered in a strange sight.Behind their gaze stands Keido Kinjo in front of a map of human territory stretched out on the wall.

The "First Brave Army Operations Conference" was about to begin.

Well, first of all, let's have the Prime Minister of my country do the investigation report (...).

“I'm sure you already know the Prime Minister of the Maccard Empire, Indella Agenda.I will be responsible for the connection between the brave army and the McCard Empire, thank you very much. "

Indela stood up and stood on the opposite side between Keidou and the map.

"This time, we investigated where the demons appeared in the recent raid."First of all, they speculated that the demons had suddenly appeared in the transition, and based on that, they conducted an investigation. "

The conference room was very rough.If the Demons were free to transfer, it would be an incalculable wonder.

The human side is only able to transfer with the "space magic" of sky protection.

"But the same is true of the demonic side, where metastasis is a rare technology.Otherwise, mankind would have already been destroyed by the demons in history.Therefore, we suspected that a transfer magic team had been set up in advance at the place where the demon tribe appeared. "

Indella marked several points in each country.

"One by one in each country, we have investigated each of these locations and discovered the Transformation Magic Faction in several locations.For example, in this McCard Empire, Fort Bond, the first of its kind to be captured in a recent demonic raid, was found at the bottom of a nearby lake with an installation of transitional magical formations. "

A sketch of what seems to be the discovered magic circle is what Indella has put on the wall.

"There are still points that have not been found due to insufficient investigation, such as the forest near the former King Rising Sun capital, but it is likely that similar magical formations have been set up at all the points marked with this sign."

"... that is, not all of a sudden a demon army attacked us, but a demon race like a scout... or a demon race that had a magic circle set up in various places beforehand?"

Yuichi Tanaka, a brave man with the protection of "Notebook", raised his hand.That seemed to be one of the answers that came out of nowhere, but Indera shook her head and denied it.

"No, I don't think I was able to build a magical formation of this size overnight.The city of Bond's lake is also known as the Lake of Mithril, a specialty of Silbushel.Now it's just coinciding with the harvest of silver shells, so there are people out there fishing like every day. "

"So no matter how many demon tribes there are, they will be noticed in the process of forming a magical formation."

It will be that way.

Yuichi shows a little convincing.But he continued to speak.

"But it may be a difficult story to think about, but I can't throw away the possibility that there was a Demon informant.Or maybe the inhabitants were hypnotized, like the brave people of Rising Sun Kingdom, Jooki and Aoi..... "

"That's right, but from another point of view, we anticipate that the line can be dismissed."

"What's another perspective?"

From the side of Yuichi Tanaka, Hikaru Hatta, who is also a brave man of the Grants Republic and protects "light magic," interrupts with a sharp mouth.

"I don't know what to expect... but there's something in common at the point where the demons from all over the world emerged."

"What's in common?"

"Yes, there are some kind of specialty (...) in every place or neighborhood."

…………………

The conference room is wrapped in silence.Obviously there was a question mark on everyone's head.Among them, Hikaru Hatta tilted his neck to 60 degrees.

"What the hell!"

"In other words, the ecosystem is abnormal.For example, in Lake Bond of the McCarthy Empire, Silvoshell, and in the woods near the former King Rising Sun capital, Ketcho dominates most of the ecosystem. "

And in those areas, we don't cultivate, grow, or graze the creatures and monsters that make up the specialty.They are there somehow (...) harvesting mass occurrences.

"I checked and found that the magic concentration around the magic team is high.In other words, the high concentration of magic could have disrupted the ecosystem. "

Indera points to a sketch of the Installation Transformation Magic Team attached to the wall.

"It is said that ketchup (chicken) is first or egg first, but it is also thought that magic from this magic circle was spilling out of the magic circle and disturbing the ecosystem."

Indera didn't dare mention it, but since it is a magical anomaly, it can be thought that the magic was used to create a transfer magic formation.

However, in this case, the magic concentration will vary depending on the transition magic team, and the ecosystem will also be affected.Since yields in each specialty area have not fluctuated significantly in recent years, Indera and the others speculated that this possibility is low.

"Excuse me, how long has Silbushel been caught in the lake of Bond?"

Kengo Matsui, a brave man of the Doyle Federation, with the protection of "physical affinity", was at the heart of the question.

"The oldest confirmed record... 200 years ago."

"I mean, for at least 200 years, humans haven't noticed any loopholes in the demons..."

There was heavy silence in the conference room.The towns in the surrounding countries look darker than the brave ones.They hadn't even noticed the knife in their throat for 200 years.

At that time, a clap of bread sounds in the conference room.

"Well, you can't finish what you did.But more importantly, what we're going to talk about. "

Keido Kinjo thumped his other hand.

"In the meantime, I have learned about some demons from this raid.You want me to take that back?... first of all, their purpose in this raid. "

"Purpose......? Does the Demons have a purpose other than to destroy humanity?"

"Hey, come on, this simultaneous raid is a pussy."I dare say, there's no other way. (...) Do it. "

Keidou returned a laugh that he could take away when he taunted one of the towns.

"This raid will give us a clear view of the operation.Definitely the Demon King… There is an intelligent Commander.But I don't think it's a mistake that the Demons are brainstorming.Looking at the record of previous generations, at least I've done it before. "

Keido laughs and opens his eyes thinly.

"The demon tribe is about to undergo a [transformation]."Paradigm shift of thought and thought. It's right in the middle of it. "

Well, this time around, Keidou's expression was relaxed.

"At first, I thought it was an anomalous electric shock battle that saw the transition magic team as a mobility force.Transferring is like intermittently deploying your own army and disturbing us.... In fact, without the empty "space magic", it would have been even more chaotic. "

So Keidou looks back at the map on the wall.

"But when you think about it, it's strange.You don't have to waste time trying to make the transition.Thanks to this, we've got time to deal with it, too. "

"...... you can only use one set of Transfer Magic Circles, so you were waiting for the order?"

"Well, maybe there is."But if we do that, we'll set the timing of the raid, and if we're all here, we'll all go together. "

Well, yeah.

Keido smiles bitterly at Hikaru Hida, who is quiet with Shun.

"It is probably reasonable to think that you deliberately misplaced the timing."There are other strange things.There are many things, such as the amount of force put in is halfway, the shifted position is too fragmented, and there is no movement after that.At the very least, I don't think we're going to do much damage to humankind in this attack. "

But then, it returns to the first question: What is the purpose of the Demons?

"So, indela. This is the quiz."

"...... Huh? Is that me?!"

"It's halfway to attack. We're sending in a force that we can't fight properly. I don't know."

"Um, uh... I wonder if it's a powerful scout."

"Ping-pawn. Correct."

Keidou laughed naggingly.

"Well, considering that, there are some points of convergence.Probably wanted to find out the strength and position of the brave, not the human side.That's why I transferred the demons from country to country, and deliberately skewed the timing. "

"Wait, I can convince you that relocation by country is a way to find out where the brave are.But what do you know about timing? "

Matsui-kun, that's a good question ~

Don't be ridiculous.

Keido shrugged his shoulders to Matsui, who frowned.

"I flirted with the timing to make it work for the human side."That way, you can see the speed of communication and the degree of cooperation between countries, and above all, you can see that the brave have the ability to transfer "space magic"...You'll see that the strategy changes with or without a transition. "

"But... tell me for yourself, it's a little too powerful to call it a power scout."

"Of course I doubt that.As far as I'm concerned, it wasn't just a simple power reconnaissance.It happened that there were brave men in various countries and they had the protection of "space magic", so the damage was minor. "

But if only a few brave men were summoned, as usual, it would have been imperative for the human side to have a deadly blow.

"Let's feel yawny.Personally, I think it's either reconnaissance or assault. "

”Um... [Too much fighting power] is a human story, isn't it?”

Yuichi still says well.

"Well, actually, I thought it might be enough power to scout from the Demons."

In other words, we may have misread the demonic forces.

Yeah, well...

"I've been thinking about that... maybe not.Over there, too, there was too much power for reconnaissance... no, I had to (...). "

"What do you mean?"

Keido raised three fingers in a strange indela.

"There are three reasons. First, some of the Demons described themselves as the '10th Place in the Demon King's Guard" Noble ".If you take it literally, you'll be working directly for the Demon King.We're going to send people close to executives to attack like this. "

Keidou breaks one finger.

"The second rationale is that the operation is a chig-hug."Or rather, there is a huge discrepancy between the strategic and tactical levels. "

"Strategy? Tactics?"

"Crudely, it feels like an operation for each operation unit in the entire army."(Well, maneuvering also takes on a different meaning)... if you think of it as a big point of view and a small point of view. "

The contradiction between Keido's strategy and tactics lies in the fact that the troops named for the direct guard force are pursuing the strategy of reconnaissance too deeply.No retreat, no act of aggression.

On the other hand, since I deliberately mobilized my immediate guard, I may be able to match the invasion to a certain extent, but honestly, foolishness is also foolishness.

In fact, due to the halfway attack, the Demons lost a lot of important combat power.

"And finally, the third. There has been no movement on the Demon side since then.According to the Doyle Federation, your front has retreated.I can see that you're being careful because you failed the reconnaissance, but there's no point lowering the front you've maintained so far. "

"... what do you mean?"

"Put it together in order."

Jindou raised three fingers again.

"One, my immediate escort is on a direct reconnaissance mission.Now we know that there are few Demon King tokens. Secondly, the confusion between strategy and tactics.From here, we can see that the Demon King has low leadership. "

"Even though you're the Demon King...?"

Indera was eager to believe.The Demon King and his existence alone can each bring together a demonic tribe like a raging horse.That is why the Demon King is the Demon King, and the birth of the Demon King becomes a danger to mankind.

"Even though it's a demon king, I don't know. I don't know if the difference in thought is the cause, but there is one thing that can be said from these two grounds."The transformation of intelligence has just begun"... "

A paradigm shift in the demon race that is probably about to start with the demon king.However, Keidou speculated that it had only spread to the Demon King and part of his immediate guard.

"In other words, the demons are divided into 'reformists' who train in wisdom and 'conservatives' who are the brains of the past.So this leads to the third rationale. I mean.... "

Jindou had a black smile.

Are they going to split up now?

"Well, do you think there's a civil unrest?"To the demons? "

"Think from their point of view.When the demon kings who were about to reform set up the operation and attacked humans, they were brilliantly retaliated against.The opposition will thrive.... well, I don't know if I'm even going to civil unrest, but is it sudden?The Tsuji suits me when I think I pulled soldiers from the front line and transferred my strength inward. "

Chu, Keido Kinjo once again rang his hand.

"Finally, this is the main topic. Now is the time to attack?"And in return, we raided."

"If the heroes attack now, the demons won't stop."

Well, I guess so.

Yuniu nodded bitterly at the question of the prayer.

"Even though the" wrath of God "is literally halving its power, the Demon King seems to be cute because he's trying to cause civil unrest with the" Demon King "reformist and the" Hydro "conservative."

"As far as I can tell, I deserve a naive operation."

"Please don't say that."Because it's the first time I've tried my best with wisdom. "

"You are the demon king," she said.... "

As if to make fun of a child I knew as a child, I wanted to ask, "How old are you?"It is rumored that Helium, the current demon king, is a vampire who has lived since the time of the demon king.

"Well, that's fine, but even free mercenaries can join either faction, right?""Are you going to become a demon king or a hydro king?"

"As far as I'm concerned, it's definitely a" demon king ".It may be a disadvantage, but we still have a plan."Hydro" is the extreme of the brain muscle.I don't know what you're gonna do. "

"As for me, I liked the 'Hydro' who could be outraged...."

In any case, if you are a brain muscle faction, you can kill as many allies as you like (Yukari's prejudice).

Well, if Yuniu says so, let's make it a 'demon king'.

"... eh!?"

It was Arya who reacted greatly to the prayer.She sees prayer with her eyes on incredible things.

"What is it?"

"No... did you eat anything bad?"

"No, why?"

"... it's nothing, but..."

To Ariya, who seemed a little frustrated, Jiri said, "Did you want to enjoy brain killing so much?"and changed her personality assessment.

"Yes, Yu. There's something I don't understand with curse magic."

"Oh, what is it? Anything?"

"I'm going to hurt the wall here, so I'm going to go outside a little bit."

That's what I'm going to do, get the two of you out of here.Arya was left alone in the room.

She practises witchcraft in silence by herself.

(What is it?Are you alone again?)

But I couldn't concentrate at all.

(No, I don't mind.You trust her a little too much, don't you?Where did your usual wasting vigilance go?)

That's why Arya wanted to be on the lookout for Uniw instead.However, the reason for the emotional disturbance now is different.

Arya paused her practice and took a breath.

(I know. This is jealousy.That's why I don't like it.

She scratches her head.

Aren't you too jealous of me?As soon as a woman shows up next to Jesus, this is it!I'm not even dating! I'm embarrassed!)

It was Arya, who was wrestling by herself.

(No, the Sister in the City of Leggings... not as far as Fanatics is concerned.You obviously sneaked in, didn't you?I've been provoking you... but not this time!At least you're teaching Prayer Land!In contrast, Yosato is a little too trustworthy and too vigilant!What is it? That man!That's the type!)

Eventually, the spear went to prayer.

Ariya takes another breath when the one-person sumo chef goes out the day after tomorrow.

(... I don't like it. I don't like myself not being able to control my emotions, and I don't like being spoiled.Love is often said to be a bondage.This isn't... freedom.)

You're doing something interesting.

Pyah

Suddenly, her hands were on her shoulders, and Arya looked back.

"Hey, Yuniu... what's up?"

"No, if you look at something, you're upset, frustrated, you knock on the desk, you look up, you sigh, you look sad right away."

"Were you watching..."

I thought it was a solo sumo, but I was watching the whole game.Arya twitches as her ears turn red.

"... should I go to prayer?"

"I think I really wanted to ask you a few questions.The basics are almost done, but they're looking for more versatility. "

That's fast enough.

"On the other hand, Arya doesn't seem to be doing very well."

"... please leave me alone"

"No, no, I'm a teacher too."

Yuniu sat beside Arya, still squatting, whispering.

"Don't worry, neither I nor Inoli recognize each other as such a target."

…………

"Rather, I support Arya."

"...... is there any benefit to you if you support me?"

"In other words, Arya will be able to concentrate, but the truth is..."

Yu glanced into the suspicious eyes of Arya.

"I want to see men and women flirting in front of my eyes."

"... it's simply dreadful. I feel like an idiot who created serious air."

"Uuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu.When a lover less than two feels right in front of me, I want to make it feel a little bit like air. "

"Wow, I feel like I'm being trampled on a very delicate part right now."

Arya fell down. But Yu won't stop.

"However, if there's a civil unrest, you won't be able to figure it out anymore, so personally, I want you to stick with it."

"I know, I don't know what to do here."

"But before the civil unrest, you want to solve your troubles and complete the spell magic?And for his love! "

"Ugly. Simply ugly."

Arya changed Yuyu's character rating to "Bad Cap Chef".

"So go on a date tomorrow."

"If it's a date... it's nothing."

"By the way, it's more authentic than you and I were shopping on the day we met."

"You didn't say anything!"

Well, well, Yuniu and Arya tap on the shoulder.

"Arya, you can't stay like this forever, can you?"

"That's true, but...."

"That's why I got advice from Yunu-sama, the big romantic."

"I've never heard of someone who's a strong romantic."

"Look, there's no secret to love."

Yuniu accumulates in vain. Ariya was swallowed by the momentum, and her throat rang.

"Lunch, sightseeing, dinner and alcohol, night scenery, drunken momentum, a mood of fait accompli."

I wasted my time. Goodbye.

"Hey... I'm just kidding Arya!"

Yu stopped her from leaving.

"Why don't you go on a date tomorrow?"I'll think of a plan to carry it well. "

"I'm only worried."

"It would be easy if Arya helped me a little.Take a look at my "eyes".That way, I can see the future and show you the best path from invitations to goals. "

Uniu stretches his chest with confidence.

"Your future comes with me."

"I'm only worried."

"Take a break. Huh? What's wrong with you both?"

"Ah, Inari, will you date Arya tomorrow?"

"What is an 'invitation'!?"

"I don't care."

"All right, Arya, do your best as planned.



"I'm only worried!"

Whatever it is, it's a date decision.
