An undead raid that suddenly appeared in the city. I was being chased through the process while I left the transmission to Duvreoli.

But this is quite troublesome, not just because you should defeat the undead who came into view, but because you also have to process the ordinary people who were attacked and killed by the undead.

Those who die as a result of the contact of the undead become a new undead by virtue of their attached magic. Treat the vicinity of the wound with purifying magic and transport it to nearby shade.

I wouldn't need that much time with this procedure if I were an individual corpse, but the problem is when there was a dead body on the side.

In the sight of those who are grieving, suddenly there is no way to pierce the chains of the dead, and an explanation must be given. But not all those who have lost their loved ones will listen.

"So as it is, that guy will be undead. Quickly use purifying magic..."

"Don't touch my wife! Ahhh! How could you, how could you do this..., please! Open your eyes! Open your eyes!

Sitting around here, I don't even know when I'll be attacked by the undead. Even so, this man doesn't move with a woman's body in his arms.

Ignore the circumstances of this man now, but we should stick our chains in the body he's holding. If we don't head to the next undead or body disposal any sooner, the casualties will increase one after the other.

"W......"

"Oh, no! Good! Great length -!?"

"Uhh!"

undead and strip the man in chains who was about to be attacked by a moving corpse. They seem to have decided on my shoulder, but not enough wounds to lead to death.

"She's not your know-it-all girlfriend anymore. When I looked at people, I became a monster trying to kill whoever it was."

……

"If we process it with purifying magic now, we can also take the body back with minor damage. Make a decision."

"Let go of me. To my wife... let me go..."

The man's eyes were vain but serious. I loosen the chain and set the man free. The man approached the wife of the undead man as he was.

The undead bites the man's neck without hesitation and tries to take his life. But the man kept hugging the undead without resisting.

"... eh"

Make sure the man is no longer moving and stick a chain in both bodies. He moved to a nearby alley, keeping the shape of the two cuddles intact.

At least I'm not that guy. I can't measure the value that that man holds correctly. Still, it conveyed what that man cared about.

"There you are, Ekdoyk"

"Bellard."

"The Ethereal Demon King and Mary are on their way here. The mission given is to support the handling of the undead and the evacuation of the humans as an assault."

"Got it. We'll rendezvous soon."

We must not give the wrong priorities. Protecting those two must be a top priority, more than acting with 'Ethan' or Mary A.

Looking back only once at the alley that carried the two earlier, we proceed with Bellard to the back of the city. There was already an appearance of 'Ethereal' and María fighting together to handle the undead.

"Mr. Ekdoyk! It's good to meet you early!

"Oh. 'Pale', how do you think your countrymen move?

"Maybe it's because the killer is Princess Hilmera, so we're going to get that person now. Lachra said she'd join the Hark Docks and work with Mejs!

This disturbance was caused by Princess Hilmera...... When I saw what the undead looked like, I thought about Larheit, did my countrymen decide that Princess Hilmera was Larheit's collaborator?

"Right. Then we'll fight to curb the damage at all. I know María's ability to fight but... 'Pale', how good is your ability against the undead?

"You don't have to wield your powers as a demon king, you can use as much magic as you want to interfere with necromancy. It's more fuel efficient than purifying magic."

"That's more than anything. Mary and Bellard are beside 'The Pale' - ugh!?

The purifying magic that had been applied to the chain was released. No, it's not just purification magic. Every magic activation has been inhibited. Although the chains that are moving through magic move, I can't use any magic to aid that movement. I realize that María and 'Pale' are similarly unable to use magic. This is...

"Magic Stone!? And this is... Huh!

There is no such thing as a demonic sealed stone rolling around. What is possible is that a fairly huge demonic sealed stone has been transported to this Serende.

I hear that the country prepares for aggression from other countries and keeps huge demon sealing stones near the country. Did Princess Hilmera occupy the place and let the undead take it in?

"E, E, Mr. Ekdoyk! What shall we do!?

"Relax, Mary. You must be the Holy Knight. Even if purifying magic is not available, only magic enhancement can inflict undead attacks."

"Right. And I'm so freaked out that I'm stuck on my feet."

Me and Mary are still in direct combat training, so even if the undead strikes me, I can handle it adequately. But "Ethereal" is basically the battle style of a magical subject who doesn't hold a weapon. More than all magic cannot be used with the Magic Stone, all that can be done is lost once and for all.

"Can't you call the demons in your subdivision?

"I can do that. Ede was already on his way."

Ede, were you a skeleton hose demon? More manoeuvrability is preferable than unusable magic.

"How about calling Dal 'Agestia, demon king of the ethers? He'll be able to transport a large number of evacuees."

"You... Under these circumstances, a giant demon like the top of the undead system emerges to see it. We're all going to run the other way from Dal 'Agestia."

"... I see. Humans can't tell the difference between demons."

It's just hard to handle undead when this happens. I can do enough to capture them with chains, but I can't keep so many at the same time than I can magically change the length of the chains.

In that case, rescue efforts will be a top priority.

"- Ahhh!?

"Duh, what's up, 'pale'?"

Yelling is often a 'pale', but should this voice be more of an awareness than an anger? You must have noticed something serious.

"Wait a minute! A demon seal stone for war has been brought all over the city, which means the majority of people in this city can no longer use magic!?

"Oh, don't be."

"The lacra is not unsavory!

"Huh!?

"Wow!?

While running to join Mr. Masetta and the others, as soon as I found the undead, I was using purifying magic while processing it, and suddenly the magic was no longer available.

With the construction breaking down, I found out that it was a magical overthrow by the Demon Sealing Stone, but I don't see the Demon Sealing Stone at the heart. I wonder how big things are being brought in.

For now, we are fleeing the undead at first sight. Because I can't win no matter how.

"Ugh, I've never worked out or anything assuming when they used the Demon Seal Stone!?

Our magic is basically a technique for dealing with demons, and unlike Mix, who specializes in interpersonal fights, we really can't do anything when things like this happen. You should have learned a little more about how to fight using or being used by Master Ukka properly.

Fortunately, you can enhance your magic, in that you can run away from the undead? I can't harden it or anything, so I can't fight flesh bullets or anything. I didn't learn martial arts or anything in the first place!

What a fool in my heart there would be another undead in the front! A detour - over here too!? What do I do with this!?

"I thought it was the face you saw, you or Lachla-Salf"

"Well, that voice - which one was it?

Looking back at his familiar voice, Mr. Undead, who was behind him, was buried inside the wall. I did that... uh, I only fought a little around Quama... so far my name is out there...

The person rushes to the other undead before answering and slaps his body against the wall. I see, if you do, the movement is also sealed and convenient.

"Yasteto, Yasteto"

"Ah! Mr. Yasteto!

Yes, Mr. Ritial's men, Mr. Yasteto! Yugra's dropper excelled in concentration, able to develop stronger ties than I do!

The junction doesn't seem to be unfolding, but I was originally just good at fleshbullet warfare, and you've made a very good move just to enhance your magic.

"Even though I didn't raise my name, I was in a position to cooperate for once..."

"Shh, sorry...... Oh, but I remember you were very strong!

"You seem to be in a very tragic situation under the influence of the Demon Seal Stone. You're going to lose yourself, Lachra-Salf."

"Hin... was Mr. Yasteto talking like that? A little more like this, like accumulating and then talking..."

How else would you read it under your full name? Hi do you recall my old brother Ekdoik and say he comes out feeling bad......

"You don't have to calmly provide support behind that sister anymore. We're headed to a facility with Masetta-Neuches and Harkdock-Heliodora."

"Ah, yes. But why do you call me by my full name?

"... it's not like we're friends, and renunciation would be familiar? It's harder to call you Salf than to have a brother named Ekdoik. It's a special treatment to call them different from the others, so we've all decided it's best to call them full names."

"You don't mind me calling you Lachra normally, do you?

I think this guy is the serious and caring type, but he's probably the one who thinks too much and looks weird.

"Then Lachra...... I'll accompany you where you want me to be."

"I'm glad to hear that, but why is Mr. Yasteto here?

"Arcléal was attacked hiding in the vicinity of Selende. The man helped out, but he had been ordered to stake out that a new assassin might be sent. The time for change is approaching, Hark Doc... I was just on my way because near the treatment facility where Kun is located was the rendezvous point"

"Going out of your way to make the vicinity of Mr. Harkdock a rendezvous point, that's different."

Mr. Harkdock is an expert in detective magic. Even if we're not enemies anymore, how about we meet up near someone like such a hunk of vigilance?

"Tsudari wants to see Hark Doc."

"Ah."

Surely those two fought underground in the ruins, didn't they? Is there quite a certainty or something? I know it's all right, but I'll report it to Master Sentence next time.

"I'll kick the undead. Mr. Lachra needs to prepare for an unexpected attack on the undead. I want to concentrate more on flesh and bullet warfare than I can."

"If that's about it...... Ugh, I can't believe how helpless it is when the magic is completely sealed..."

"If it's a bad thing, new discoveries can always find new possibilities. I've noticed how talented I am at field work lately."

I think it's completely apart from being helpless when you can't use magic and finding talent for field work. Yet the look on Mr. Yasteto's face that speaks of it feels very soft. I was under the impression that this guy was very upset before, but was there anything that cleared his mind after the battle then?

"I'm happy to say, are you happy with that?

"If you think you can make Archreal look remorseful, you can even nibble your mouth."

"I don't really understand the context of the story!?

I'm a little concerned, but not now. We need to hurry up and rendezvous with the Masettas.
