Konjiki no Moji Tsukai (Reboot)

And Yveam and his men crossed the bridge, and they saw the 'human race' that was stationed there, and they tightened themselves up.

Everyone is looking at us with vigilance.

"The brave ones...."

Yveam moved his gaze and looked for the brave men who would be here. And then four men and women jumped into sight.

A girl with the same brown hair who seems to be active to a well-dressed boy who has brown hair and is tall and would be popular with women. And a clear girl with beautiful black hair, a cat-eyed girl with a little wave of hair.

"That's the brave one...."

Yveam is dressed up as a poker face, moving his gaze and bringing four young people into sight. They noticed us and watched.

She decided to be a hero to them because she sensed the amount of magic it contained.

In the first place, she was an excellent species for magic detection, and she was also born with great magic and precision magic control.

Using their abilities, they observed humans and discovered the quality and amount of magic they contained. Yveam pushes forward without stopping, and a human soldier stands now.

I see you, Lord Eveam, the Devil King.

The soldier is probably a captain.

Unlike the grey armor worn by other soldiers, only one person has a different shape and color.

One other person is wearing red armor, just like the person in front of her. Perhaps that person is also a captain.

"It hurts to welcome you. My name is Yveam Grand Early Evening, king of the devil kingdom."

Looking at Yveam standing with a crisp expression, I can hear the people around me sighing.

Yveam is certainly the king of the Enemy, but his beautiful appearance and hegemony as a king must have unintentionally taken away his eyes.

Akwinas said, "Dignity as a king is still not enough, but yet for humans, it may be forced to understand that it is clearly a world different from their own.

She was breathing not only at her, but also at the presence of Aquinas and Marione beside her. Even the captain's expression did not change, but a drop of sweat was shed from his forehead on his face.

"... I will guide you to the [Holy Land of Ordine]. According to the terms, only six crew members are allowed to escort from here."

"I know. The three of us are going to take Akwinas, Marione, and Kiria. Kilia isn't" Kruel, "but she's close to me. It doesn't matter. I have written permission."

"I see. I don't want or want to have a small number of people. Then follow me."

So I followed the captain.

Yveam passed the brave men as they were, but Akwinas was different. Pause a little and gaze at them, gently frowning.

"What's wrong?

It was Kilia who asked him that question.

"... no, I'm just curious."

"Those are the brave ones."

Kilia also stares at the four brave men.

I see. But.... "

"Anything?

"... no, we're on our way."

Ah, yes.

Once again, Akwinas walked out looking at the brave men.

(It's strange... it's definitely strong... but all four of us have too much magic...?

Akwinas felt a huge amount of magic.

And I do feel more powerful than the "Advanced Magus", but all four of them have too much magic.

(Are all the inhabitants of other worlds so? Or...)

It was true that four people were different from four in appearance, but still, the amount of magic caught something.

I felt uncomfortable that the same amount of magic was present here, and that all of them were brave. But it's not impossible for four people to have the same magic.

(... Ohnous, the country asked. Instead, the princess...)

The flames flutter quietly in my eyes. Though anxiety is too much, we still have to go to the talks.

Because that's what her - my Lord's will is.

I don't know what will happen in the meeting. But Akwinus is determined that Yveam alone needs to be protected.

But Akwinas had no way of knowing what kind of story this choice would make.

[Holy Land of Ordine] - A place where brave men once summoned to this world [Idea] are said to have saved the needy "human race" and fulfilled their life.

And when the hero died, he turned his body into light, and poured it down into the earth.

Originally, the land was dirty, with poison swamps and many fierce monsters stupid.

The brave man wanted to make the land clean, and he squeezed his last power to purify the dirty land.

Since then, the land has grown many flowers and grasses, and it has become a rich land full of nature far removed from the past. Somehow, the monsters couldn't get anywhere near the land and could no longer use their magic.

It was judged that the brave man's will for peace had caused him to do so, and he called it the Holy Land and built a building in honor of the brave man.

This is the Great Temple of Ordine.

And it was built in the heart of the land, where the mightiest of the heroes were left.

A man who was one of the brave men took office as the first priest.

His name is Ronnis Gilberty.

The Holy Land of Ordine was created as a symbol of peace and is still used by many worshippers and tourists, and by the upper classes for important negotiations.

And now, in such a [Holy Land of Ordine], there is an event that will usher in a major transformation.

- It's a meeting.

A meeting was about to be held with the conclusion of an alliance between the "Human race" and the "Magus race" as the main axis.

Placed in a place called "The Sanctuary Room" in the "Grand Temple of Ordine", the faces representing the two species were facing each other.

It is Portonis Gilberty, the current chief priest, who stands between them as a witness and neutral of the talks. As the name suggests, he is the one who draws Ronnis Gilberty's blood.

It is a white based priest costume with gold thread embroidery on the top of the garment. He had a cane in his hand, and a large emerald green ball was fitted to it.

A woman in need of sunburn is envious of her color and is a woman in her 30s, but she is age-appropriate and has a sluggish nose. The contour fits like all the parts have been beautifully arranged.

Now, I would like to start the Talks to Conclude the Man-Man Alliance.

Her voice is clear and she jumps in without resistance to anyone's ears.

Between the Sanctuaries is a large round table, with representatives of the two species just facing each other lowering their hips, while Portnis sits in a position where they can see each other.

Only Rudolph, King of the Human race, and Yveam, King of the Magus tribe, sit down.

Others were advised to take their seats, but they decided to stand still. Probably to make it easier when something happens. That was what both thought the same thing.

On Rudolph's side are Minister Dennis, Alliance Master Judom, and five soldiers. Among them is the captain who guided Yveam to this point.

On the Yveam side, nearby Kilia, Akwinus, who is the "first in the sequence" of "Creuer", and Marione, who is the "second in the sequence", are kept away.

Of both, Judom was looking at Akwinas. The other person was looking at each other in the same way, so they inevitably stared at each other.

It's been a long time, Akwinus.

Judom speaks with his eyes, not his voice.

As Akwinas understood to him,

"Above all, Judom Lankers."

Interactions like comrades are carried out with a single gaze. They know each other well because they've been in a death fight before.

The lines of sight continue to cross as if they were analyzing each other.

(You're still a samurai who doesn't seem to be a "human race")

Akwinas remembered Judom who fought in the past and realized that he was growing up differently than he did then.

(... as usual. If you're a normal bastard, I'd constrict you just by seeing him exist....)

With that in mind, Judom was also prone to the appearance that the dust was not fading against the formerly strong enemies.

I looked sideways at the soldiers nearby. Some of them were still under pressure by the presence of Aquinas and Marione.

(I can't help it... I can fight it somehow....)

When you look at the five people in this way, you see the eyes of the three.

(Only these three?)

Only three of the "Magus" tops stood in front of their eyes, unwavering without pressure.

(The level may be quite high... but the reality is that we don't have the heart to deal with them.)

Perhaps they are the best of the [Victorias] army, but they are still inferior to the Akwinas. Of course, that's something I can tell myself, but if Akwinus and the others were to go mad, I couldn't help it myself.

Since magic and weapons are forbidden in this "Sanctuary Room", it will be relative only with pure physical ability, but I still feel like I can do my best by confronting Akwinus alone.

That's why I'm the five captains, but I still have doubts about whether they can take Marione, his closest associates, and the Devil King.

In fact, I had a plan to include my trusted expert adventurer, but Dennis, the minister, rejected it and the king agreed to it.

King Rudolph was told that he only wanted to leave him by the side of those he trusted, and he had no more ears to hear with his arms pressed against the curtain.

In the meantime, Judom puts emphasis on fulfilling his role. Watch the meeting while keeping an antenna on the perimeter.

"This meeting is being held by mutual agreement. And the will is both to forge alliances as a link to peace. Is that correct?

Portnis asks both representatives to move their gaze and ask.

It was Yveam who responded to it without hesitation. I nodded back strongly.

Portnis then moved his gaze towards Rudolph.

He closed his eyes, but raised his eyelids quietly as silence continued. Then you say words to slowly bite.

"... I'd like to ask you one question, Your Honor."

"... what is it?

Everyone's eyes are poured into Rudolph.

"This Sanctuary is easy to enter, but you'll need permission from the Lord Commander to leave."

"... that's how it's structured."

Portnis leans slightly over his neck to see why he suddenly hears such a story.

"And the number of people allowed in is limited to thirteen, including the chancellor?

"... hah"

"Besides, there's no information coming in from the outside... it's a room that we should call a different space."

Judom frowned at Rudolph's words.

(Rudolph... what the hell...?

He may know that because everyone here, no, the minister next door is smiling slightly, but still almost everyone is stunned by Rudolph's strange remarks.

"... no, I just wanted to make sure. I'm sorry I took so long."

Yes, no

I don't know why he confirmed it, but Judom realized that Akwinas' eyes were narrowed. Judom was also questioning Rudolph's strange behavior.

(... Rudolph, you...)

I don't want to believe it... but I was watching to see how things were going.

Now, once again, I'd like you to name both parties.

"I am Rudolph van Strauss Al-Klaiam, king of [Victorias], unified king of the 'human race'."

When Rudolph named him, Yveam followed suit.

"My name is Yveam Grand Early Evening, King of the Devil Kingdom. Thank you very much for responding to the demands of our" Demon Clan, "King Victorias."

Move your head as if it were a light interpretation.

"No, we would benefit greatly from an alliance."

Although this demon king is speaking in honor, Rudolph is a little suspicious and frowns uncomfortably, but Akwinas notices him and shakes his head small. Just be careful not to say anything.

Yveam, the person in question, opens his mouth as if he doesn't care about words at all.

"Thank you for saying that."

"But..."

……

"Some of you don't want this alliance."

"I appreciate that."

"That's all. The wounds we have on each other are heavy... deep."

"Yes, but I feel that it can only be healed in time of peace, not vengeance."

…………

"We used to fight. That's why I've been doing things that are said to be inhumane. Grief and hatred only swell, and it calls for strife again. Then it's no good. If someone breaks the chain of battle, peace will never come!

Everyone listened to her argument.

(This girl... is this the demon king now?)

Judom heard her ideals and felt that she meant it.

In the first place, it is close to suicide to come with such a large number of people on a human continent, which is an enemy land. However, I am still meeting with representatives of the enemy because I really want to go to the talks and form an alliance.

Under conditions overwhelmingly unfavourable to herself, she bought an objection that seemed to be a kid who lined up all the sweet bullshit if she was bad, and in this situation that might become a dispute, she releases all the false words because she herself really thinks so.

(... hmm? Where is this girl...?

Judom sees Yveam and remembers what he feels like. The feeling of meeting somewhere is just behind my head. And then...

(I remember! Whoa whoa whoa whoa whoa whoa whoa whoa whoa whoa, whoa whoa whoa whoa whoa whoa whoa whoa whoa whoa whoa whoa whoa whoa whoa whoa whoa whoa whoa whoa whoa whoa whoa whoa whoa whoa whoa whoa whoa whoa whoa whoa whoa whoa whoa whoa whoa whoa whoa whoa whoa whoa

I looked at her again with my eyes wide open.

And I was sure that she was the daughter I remembered.

(... I see, the young lady of yours... has become splendid.)

He doesn't seem to have noticed yet, but Judom realized that he definitely met his daughter in the past.

The fact that she became big and splendid at that time somehow made her happy. But it's not always about nostalgia. We must now focus on the talks.

"When you form an alliance, you always get distorted. What do you think of that?

Yveam answers Rudolph's question without being upset.

"Indeed, even if the Alliance is formed here, those who are not satisfied with it will always be dissatisfied. It also refers to the" Beast Clan. "But if we keep fighting each other like this, this [idea] will be even more damaged, and there will be no place for people to live. I think it's actually happened in the past, and I think it's understood."

…………

"The forefathers who thought it was impossible to do so held hands with hands and prospered, shaping the world today. In other words, we stand here because our ancestors struggled to correct their mistakes and build the world. Are our descendants ready to destroy it?

Everyone listened to her in silence, but Rudolph closed his eyes and made a difficult face to Minister Dennis.

"Peace will not be easy to make. But if we work together, that's the foundation. There will be many problems, but one day it will be a world for everyone to laugh at!

Beautiful ideals. Unstained ideals. The ideal that everyone thinks is sweet will indeed be peace itself if it is realized.

(No... you're rushing too fast, demon king)

Judom stares at her with a slightly reluctant expression.

(It is certainly a great ideal. But it's a little... overworded.)

Indeed, what she says is an excellent ideal.

But she hasn't answered Rudolph's words clearly.

Distortions created by alliances. In response to the question of how to deal with it, she simply lined up her ideals with words.

To put it bluntly, he just shook unfounded confidence by saying, "It's okay, it's okay."

Judom was where he wanted this meeting to be. I agree with the Alliance, of course.

However, we are not indifferent to the problems that arise as a result. That's why I wanted to discuss the issue… with you about the near future ahead of the Alliance.

Let's get to know each other first. Trust comes from it over time.

But she only sees beautiful parts of the Alliance. Clearly, it's dangerous.

It might be like everyone jumps to the ideal, but the opponent is a representative of a country and puts the fate of the race at stake.

Judom is also worried when she sees only the ideals ahead.

(Don't hurry, demon king. We have time. Don't rush to the Alliance. First, we need to get to know each other and solve problems one by one. That's the only meeting I have today.)

Judom comes up with words that remind me of my daughter.

When I look at her, I feel like I want to follow her. Sweet but certainly attracted to wonders, she can be understood as a demon king even when she is still young.

"... Devil King Yveam"

In that way, Rudolph murmured.

"Well, what is it?

"Have you ever... lost someone you care about?

"... what?

All of a sudden I wondered what you were going to ask me and I answered back.

"From what I've seen, you're pure. He certainly was a brother and sister to his predecessors, but his thoughts are not similar."

……

"You have a great idea. It's really white... it's a beautiful ideal."

In a moment, Dennis's throat heard a crackling sound. I seem nervous, but perhaps I am focused on the hegemony that is embedded in the words.

"Let's hear it again. Have you ever lost someone you care about?

"It's... there." Magus "is all my family. There are many who have died."

"...... Well then, if someone kills your family from now on, revenge is pointless. You think we can work this out... by laughing at him and talking to him?

Rudolph quietly opened his eyes and hit her with a sharp gaze. I feel as if I would never miss her every step of the way.

Even Yveam, who was asked the question, had his face slightly obscured by the content.

"... I don't know if it's funny. No, you may not be able to laugh. But I won't let anyone kill my family! In the name of this demon king Yveam, we will stop any act that creates vengeance!

Silence persists in the form of staring at each other for a while.

And Rudolph was the first to open his mouth.

"Looks like you're still young."

"I appreciate that! Admittedly, there's something you can't reach! But..."

"This meeting"

"... what?

Rudolph interrupts her words.

"In this meeting, the Beast tribe will definitely try to stop it. Do you have any idea what they're up to?

"My people are good at gathering information. I asked him to look into the" Beast tribe. "

"Oh, so?

"In the last few months, we've been working in secret, and we've been spreading false information to fool them."

"Oh, that's what I did."

In fact, there were numerous meetings through both power holders.

And this intimate meeting was a trick to trick the "Beast Clan".

At the meeting, detailed information was discussed, such as the location, date and time of the meeting.

And Yveam's men secretly spilled the information across the Beast continent.

Of course, they should have investigated the information with their own hands, without swallowing it.

Information that the date and time of the meeting are the same, but in different places.

A few days ago, I received word that the "Beast Clan", who had the information, had taken the army to the site of a false meeting.

Among them, the king of beasts was also discovered, and it was clear that he was danced by false information.

"By now, the Beast tribe will be attacking the false meeting place we have prepared. But even though they look alike, there's just another one of us."

"Well, I hear that something specialized in elaborate doll making made that fake... is it so similar?

"Of course. If you don't actually touch it and make sure it's there, it's impossible to judge it by its appearance."

"Oh, you have a good man."

A little proud of Rudolph's words, he stares at Kiria next to him.

She also pulls back a little modestly, but might be glad to see her cheeks loosen slightly. Yes, this doll was prepared by Kilia, the only one.

(He's right, I have a good family)

Yveam felt that way and thanked the Kiriams who supported him once again.

"So you're saying everything's okay?

"Yes"

"Whether it's a 'beast tribe', this meeting or... we're a 'human tribe'?

…… What are you talking about?

Suddenly I felt uncomfortable with him speaking in a way that included words.

Then he suddenly raises his hand as to what he thought.

And without saying it was a sign, one of the five captains moved quickly from the spot.

I wonder if Yveam will be targeted here, or if Akwinus and the others will be nearby to defend Yveam. But the captain wasn't after Yveam.

"No, what are you doing!?

It was Portnis who was the witness.

No, to be precise, the wand that Portnis has.

Too quick a move and all of a sudden Portnis was robbed of his cane without a trick.

Most people stared at the sight in a daze. It was as if he could not understand what he was doing.

"Break it!"

That's what Rudolph told the captain. The captain nodded too small and shook his wand.

"Oh, don't stop!

- Pariiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiii!

Portnis' words of restraint were also vain, and the wand was smashed on the ground, and the jewel-like balls that were stuck on the top of the wand were scattered around it in pieces.

"Well done."

In Rudolph's words, the captain said, "Ha! Just say, back to the original position.

Judom, who was watching it, just roughed up his voice.

"Hey, Rudolph! What are you thinking?

"Yes! Don't you know what that wand looks like!

Portnis continued, Rudolph replied with a faint smile.

"I know. So I destroyed it."

Ha!

"Rudolph... I can't believe it..."

After seeing Judom shaking his body and Portnis stunned, Yveam finally joined in.

"Hey, what the hell is going on? What the hell is this, King Victorias?

The Magus stared at Rudolph. But he still hasn't broken his smile.

"Twenty-four hours now, this world is completely isolated from the outside world."

"Isolated... the world?

And Yveam repeated the word, and it was Judom that answered it.

"This Sanctuary is exactly where the ancient heroes dedicated themselves, where the Holy Power is most powerfully applied."

"Judom...."

When Akwinas murmured, Yveam stared at Judom with a hunch.

(I see, if I think I saw him somewhere, he was...!?

Until recently, I didn't know who he was, but remembering the past convinced me that it was no wonder he was here.

"Are you... Judom Lankers?

"Oh, yeah. But, well, it's getting bigger, and the time is fast that the lady at the time of the murder has become the Devil King. Don't you agree, Akwinus?

"Fuck, no."

Akwinas agreed with him and smiled slightly.

"Your Majesty, now is more than that."

With Marione's embarrassment, he returns to me and asks Judom for more information.

"I see, I'm sorry. Lord Judom, may I have your attention, please?

"Ah, this place, The Sanctuary, was so powerful that once inside, it stretched a powerful bond to protect what was inside."

"... isn't that a good thing?

"Sure enough, we're protected by the power of the brave, and this may be safer than any other place. But once you get in, you can't leave for 24 hours."

"Ha!? Is that true?

When he looked at Judom with his stunned and distorted face, he smiled bitterly.

"Oh, right, Portnis?

Yes, that's right, Judom.

Everyone felt that they probably knew each other after seeing what kind of familiar verbal exchanges they had.

"Twenty-four hours, this room will function as an absolute barrier. Originally, this wand...."

With that said, I picked up the cane that had been hit on the ground and showed it to everyone.

"There was a ball at the top of this wand, right?

Yveam nodded back to her question.

"The ball was made from the Armor of the Brave. Let me put it this way: Relics of the Brave. Thanks to that ball, I could get out of here freely if I came in here with my wand."

"Well then...."

"... yes, this Sanctuary Room will loosen its boundaries only for a short while after 24 hours. That way we can get out... now..."

I swallowed the word "balls broken" and unfortunately turned my face down.

And with anger Judom opened his mouth.

"Jesus, Rudolph, you were after this from the beginning? Well, at first, I was just checking with Portnis about strange things, and that suggested this."

Rudolph was carefully checking with Portnis on how the "Sanctuary Room" works, which was not supposed to be necessary for the meeting.

"Dennis, you knew. And the people there."

Minister Dennis stares at the five captains. They giggle at what's fun.

"I don't know what you're up to by locking us up here. Rudolph, what the hell did you do?

Rudolph smiled at Judom's words.

"What did you do? Lord Judom, what the hell is King Victorias doing...?

"Your Majesty, let me work my head a little."

"Well, do you know Kilia?

Kilia scolds me a little bit.

"Of course. Perhaps he, no, they will... betray us."

"Ha!?

Ba and his face turned vigorously towards Rudolph.

Then he...

"Haha, I often say you betray me. Isn't that basically your exclusive patent?

"Kuh! King Victorias! Why are you doing this? What the hell are you doing trapping us?

"Don't you see, demon king?"

……

Everyone pays attention to Rudolph's mouth.

And his lips moved slowly and shocking words reached Yveam's ears.

"----It's a war."
