Konjiki no Moji Tsukai (Reboot)

138: Demand to the Beast King

Anold and the others also helped him to dismantle the "Tree of the Beginning". Apparently, Camus gave us permission to go with him.

Leoward asked me to come to the Throne Room in the sun, so I followed him gently because I had just had business with him.

There was also Brunsa, the queen, who thanked her for treating her live. Leoward, who first learned that fact, also lowered his head to us.

It is understandable that these two are trusted in the extra live.

First of all, I was more concerned about Leoward's errands than this one, so I asked you first.

"Actually, almost..."

At the same time that Leoward was about to say that, someone came there.

"Oh, I've been waiting, Eugene."

He was right, there was Eugene Funal, the brother of Laraseek, the man in white who was rumouring earlier.

Apparently, the story seems to involve him, but I kept silent about what the relationship was.

"Nyohohoho! This is one of the heroes of the Magus Clan!

When I look at him laughing high for a man, I feel an atmosphere similar to that pervert butler and my cheeks cramp unexpectedly.

"Actually, when I heard that you were the one who regained Mimil-sama's voice, I was attracted to your powers that I couldn't even cure, and I've been researching them ever since... I don't know at all! Nyohohohoho!"

Yeah, I know he's a pervert in another sense, and I know he didn't miss a lot earlier. Above all, the eyes that glowed suspiciously from under the glasses were the same as when the pervert butler ran away.

"This is EUHIT, I'm sorry for the customer.

"I'm sorry about this, Mr. Bransa!

I bowed my head respectfully and took a step back.

"Did you bring it, Eugene?

"Here."

As I noticed, there was something wrapped in a red cloth on Eugene's right hand. As Eugene approaches Leowood, she rolls the cloth and exposes the contents.

There was a knife there without any aberration. When Leoward gets it, he shows it to me.

"Actually, I'd like to ask you about this knife. EUHIT"

"Yes, it is. At first glance, it looks like a regular knife, but it was that knife that took the life of our" Tree of the Beginning, Aragorn. "

I see. I stare at the knife.

The handshake part is not heavily decorated. I was just curious about the little crystal-like beads that fit under the shake.

"You checked Eugene, but I don't think this knife will wipe out Aragorn."

I bet you are. With such a small knife, I don't think it's normal to deplete Aragorn, a tree so large that even if you look up, you can't see the top.

It is reasonable to assume that the knife has something special in it.

"But what I understand is that this knife is made of a material that is not normally conceivable."

"What kind of material?

"Do you know Monarch Clarken, known as the Sea Tyrant?

"Ah, you must be a monster of rank SSS living on the bottom of Belial Sea, the most volatile sea.

It is the knowledge learned in the book, but if it is not mistaken, it is not possible to deal with the opponent with a very similar nerve.

"That's right. Monarch Kraken is characterized by the presence of a substance called" Doftofil "in the body from birth."

That's new to me.

"I guess so. I'll count the people I've actually seen. The Doftofil is a solid piece of blood, but it's terribly durable and easy to pass through."

Originally, blood = magic, so it is easy to pass magic.

"No way, you think you're making that knife with that Doftfil thing?

"... that's right."

"I see, I'm surprised it's such a big deal."

"Yes, but being able to make this means that someone actually crushed Monarch Kraken. Someone saw a tyrant under the sea...."

Certainly that would be outrageous. Even the strength and danger of the Rank SSS monsters shake off the meter.

In addition, movement is restricted in the sea, and magic is in a difficult position to use. The winner must be at the level of a monster because he fought and crushed the opponent.

And it seems to prove that such a monster is on Avolos's side.

"Well, maybe there's no line that comes up on land with some kind of applause....."

Surely you can't be optimistic. The opponents were friends of the previous demon kings.

Shiuba says that there are spirits, and I can finally be sure that the opponent's combat power is coming into the paranormal category.

Leowood exhales a lot.

"Well, even if someone defeated Monarch Clarken, it doesn't matter now. The problem is, we had to use that material on this knife."

"What kind of crystal ball is that?

"Nyohohohoho! I don't know!

"Don't you see?

"I'm sure it's some sort of magical device, but I can't figure out how it works."

Eugene says she feels sorry.

"That means. I came here because I thought you'd understand."

"... how do you think I know?

"Ha ha ha! That's a hunch!

I say with a smile, is that okay, Beast King?

"... well, I don't know him myself, but I can investigate."

"Oh, you know what I mean? Look, Bransa, I told you. Hiro will take care of it!

"Yes, but I haven't heard back from you yet."

Bransa was right. She didn't respond.

Certainly, neither the "explanation" nor the "commentary" of the "Character Magic", nor the creation of a knife can be investigated by using other investigative characters.

But of course, I couldn't do such a thing alone. I was attracted to the knife because of the Japanese color itself, my desire for knowledge, but it was hard to do so.

"Hey, Beast King, can I ask you something in exchange for an appraisal of the knife?

I made a request to the Beast King.

"---I 'm sorry, Hiro, can you say that again?

Leoward talked about the consideration for appraising the knife from the Japanese color, but the words that came into my ear were too unexpected to be accepted, and I asked again to confirm whether I thought I might have heard it wrong.

"That's why I told you to give me a piece of the continent."

"... apparently I didn't hear you wrong, but aren't we talking a little bit too much, Hyiro?

"Then I can lend you two of them and make them challah."

The first is the bet I made in the duel with Leoward. I promised to lend you one if the sun wins.

And the other thing was that Leoward healed when he was critically wounded in the duel.

"... well, it's true that you owe a lot to Mimil..."

"Don't get me wrong, Beast King. I owe that blue ribbon to myself. You don't have to include that."

It's a loan to Mimil himself. That's why I owe King Beast two things.

"No, but... even if they told me to send a part of the continent..."

"What, I thought you were a fat king?

"I don't know everything about the continent, and there are people living there. I certainly have a king in my name, but I don't want to shake my power and threaten the lives of others."

What a splendid idea. It is a word I would like to share with Rudolph the King of Man. But the Beast King has such a view in mind.

"Don't worry. The only thing I want is a cock... in the wilderness."

"For example....? You mean the [Valar Wilderness] you used in the duel?

"Yeah, that's what Koch thinks."

"Sure, there's nothing there... but it's really nothing there, isn't it?

I know that. There are no plants, no trees, no monsters, no creatures. But that's why I chose it.

"I told you, it meets the conditions of the cock."

As Leowood narrowed his eyes, he stared at the idea of Japanese colour as if he were trying to read it. However, you can't easily read the idea of expressionless Japanese colour.

"... what the hell are you doing out there?

"I don't want to go around, so I'm going straight to the point."

Not only Leo Wood, but also Brunsa and Eugene Hit.

"I'll make a paradise over there."

Everyone on the spot loses their words and silence runs through the japanese language.

And Leoward finally opened his mouth...

"Ladies, paradise...?

"Yes, it is."

"Mmm, wait a minute. Why my beast world? Why would you want to make something like that? Ah, no, what is Paradise in the first place?

I'm going to ask you a quick question.

"You know, when I ask you that, you can't even answer Hiiro."

Attention was drawn to Bransa, and Leoward sighed and said, "Yes."

Then I took a deep breath to calm my breath and asked slowly.

"Hyiro, I'd like to ask you a lot of questions, but of course you'll answer?

"Oh, of course."

Um, first of all, what is Paradise ?

"Well, to put it simply, it's a place where anyone can enjoy it. Or it's like a place where you can easily live."

"Any guy? What does that mean?

"Before I tell you what that means, I need to ask you something."

"... what?

"What do you think about halves?

Then Leowood's eyebrows twitched, and he had the look of his thoughts.

"... is that what you mean, [paradise] is the place of half disliked by the world?

A little different.

"What about it?"

"It's not just half. It's a place to get out of the world and find value in their lives when they lose their way."

"... criminals, too?

"Hey, Beast King, who put those dangerous people in there? Well, he said it would be worth a thought if he changed his mind."

"Hmm? What did you say? Hyiro, isn't this your idea?

So Japanese taught me that the main part of the story came out of Lillin.

Lillin said, I have a dream of creating a [place where everyone can enjoy], but it seems that comrades have gradually increased in travel and so on, but I haven't found the land to make it.

I definitely wanted to look beyond that dream, so I was going to do what I could. So he looked at the place where the duel took place and told Lillin that it would suit the conditions.

She also said that it was an ideal place, including size and the environment, but it was a continent inhabited by obscene beasts.

Lily, who is a "Magus" on her own, cannot build a [paradise] in such a place. So Nippon remembered that Leoward owed him a loan, and he decided to give up the right to use the land in return for the loan.

"Hmm... I didn't know that the Red Rose was thinking like that..."

"The beast world is quite a vast continent, to say the least. Besides, it's the opposite of here, and it's the best place to think about distance."

"... why are you in the beast world?

Simply put, it's an erasure.

"Erasure?

"Ah, first of all, the human world, although it does exist as a continent, it is narrow, and it is difficult to obtain land because of the many cities and villages dotted with it. Besides, I don't think this negotiation is acceptable to humans. At least not in the present situation."

Rumor has it that the humans bound by King Rudolph particularly hate heretics. Half, of course, could be killed just because of race differences. In the present situation, there is no room for negotiation.

"Hmm, but the magic world is also vast. And there shouldn't be any cities or villages. Even so, there are settlements. Do you think you'll get enough land to build [Paradise]?

"Just the land. But the environment is a problem."

"Environment?"

"As you know, the demonic world is tough. Extremely cold areas are sometimes wrapped in heat the next day. Sometimes the weather changes like mountains. The number of monsters and their strength are also problematic. With most monsters above Rank A, it's pretty hard to find a safe place."

It seems that Lillin searched for the right land, but she couldn't find an ideal environment.

"Compared to that, that [Valar Wilderness] doesn't have any monsters nearby, and the land is vast. The problem is to develop so that people can live there, but that should work out. It's where people used to live."

"Sure, but you know what? There's no other" Magus "crater out there, is there?

I also heard that the crater was made by Avolos, the ancestral demon king.

"Yet if Red Rose, the Magus tribe, tolerates the creation of such a thing, there will be many problems."

"That's why I'm there."

"... what do you mean?

"Indeed, in the past, it was once destroyed by the Magus. That's why the" Magus Clan "brings prosperity there to change the common sense of the world today. And you can return that prosperity to the beasts one by one. That's what he said.

…………

"You're not expecting anything to suddenly change Beast consciousness. But they want us to build a bridge over there where all the other races can work together. It is only natural that there are differences in values due to racial differences. But the difference in values is not something to be ashamed of, but something to be exacerbated."

Lillin said that she had always felt unhelpful. It is something that each species has its own personality and excels in. In that case, I think that if we bump into each other and raise each other, we will be able to produce better things.

"Is that why this place... hmm?"

Leoward puts his hand on his jaw and thinks about it. His gaze turned towards Eugene.

"Eugene, what do you think of what we're talking about?

"Nyohohohoho! That's a dream story!

I see.

"Nhhhhhh...."

Hmm?

"That sounds interesting ~! Nyohohoho!

"... Bransa"

I saw her face trying to get Bransa's opinion, but her eyes were sparkling.

"I'm sure you have a lot of tough problems. But I wanted to see [paradise]."

"Uh-huh... I see."

"Yeah, [a place for everyone to enjoy]. If such a place really exists, it will be a place of salvation for everyone. Besides, as I mentioned a little while ago, the food tournament, the martial arts tournament, and the magic tournament, the concealed arts tournament. They're all fascinating and fun!

The opposite is true of Leowood, with his hands facing each other and smiling like a child.

"I've been thinking about something else. We also envisage sports events, playgrounds, etc."

"Wow, that's a great idea!

The smile resembled that of Mimil and Kuclear. I still feel that it is a parent and child.

"This is what Bransa says, but we still can't get on with it easily. Especially in the present situation. I finally made an alliance with the" Magus ", but the" Human race "is still stuck. There's also a problem with Matal Dewes, who attacked this country."

In a harsh look, the expression of Brunsa's face that was floating was also shaded.

"Don't get me wrong, Beast King. I'm just saying what we think. You need to talk to Red Lori to see if you can make it happen. I'm only here to support you. Even if you give me that land quickly, the problem will be cleared up and saved quickly, but even if you give me that land, I won't be able to move towards the architecture right now. It would be embarrassing to leave the Temple Demon King alone."

I feel frustrated when I think of that smell that looks down on everyone.

"Anyway, all you have to do is think positively about this. This is for the knife."

"... I'm sorry, I still believe in you."

"Never mind. The king is right in his position. Ask Lori for more details, as I said earlier."

I see. No, even I'm attracted to [paradise]. If there's a place where everyone can smile, it's a good thing. "

Looks like you were right to come and talk to me. It is not a story that can be wrapped up in one go from the beginning. I wanted to praise Leoward for not making an easy decision.

It must have been a harvest to think about the people as kings and as beasts, and to find out that there were other species to think about.

(Well, should we just step by step?)
