138: Demand for the Beast King

Anold and the others helped out, so they went to work on the demolition of the Beginning Tree. Apparently Camus gave me permission to go with him as well.

The sun color says Leo Wood wants him to come to the Throne Room, so he has just had some errands and I will follow him very closely.

There was also the figure of Brantha, the queen, who was thanked for treating her live. Leo Wood, the first to know that fact, has also bowed his head here.

I can understand that the extra concert is trusted by these two.

I asked you first because I was more concerned about Leo Wood's errands than this one.

"Actually, soon..."

Someone came there at the same time that Leo Wood was about to say so.

"Oh, I've been waiting for you, Uhit"

He was right, there was Eucit Funnal, Larasyk's brother, the white-coated man who had rumored earlier.

Apparently, talking about it involves him, but when I shut up wondering what it has to do with him,

"Nyohohohohoho! This is great to have such a 'Demon Tribe' hero!

For a man, I look at him laughing tall, and somehow I feel an atmosphere similar to that perverted butler and my cheeks are unwittingly drawn.

"Actually, when I heard it was you who got Mimil's voice back, I was intrigued by your power, which I couldn't even cure, and I've been wanting to research it ever since... you never know! Nyohohohoho!"

Yeah, definitely knowing that he's a pervert in a different way, he wasn't out of the picture a long time ago. Above all, the suspiciously glowing eyes from under the glasses were of the same kind as when the perverted butler ran wild.

"This is a Uhit, disrespectful to our customers, right?

"This is Lady Brantha, I'm sorry!

I bowed my head respectfully and stepped back.

"Did you bring it to me, Uhit?

"Here."

I just noticed that on Yuhit's right hand there was something wrapped in a red cloth. As Yuhit approaches Leo Wood, he rolls the cloth and exposes the contents.

There, from what I saw, there was a knife placed that had no philosophy whatsoever. When Leo Wood takes it, he shows it to me.

"Actually, all I want from you is this knife. Uhit."

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

I see. And stare at the knife.

The part of the handshake is not heavily decorated either. I was just curious about the little crystal-like beads embedded in the lower part of the handshake.

He said, "Look up Uhit, too, but I don't care what you think, this knife is going to kill Aragorn."

Certainly would be. With such a tiny knife, I don't normally think I can wither Aragorn, such a big tree that I can't even see the top of the sky.

If so, it is reasonable to assume that the knife has some special trick.

"But all I know is that this knife is made of a material that is not normally considered."

"What material?

"Do you know Monarch Kraken, known as the 'Tyrant of the Sea'?

"Oh, you're definitely a monster in rank SSS living under the sea of Belial Sea, the most vortexed sea, aren't you?

Knowledge learned in the book, but not being able to deal with them with very linear nerves if I'm not mistaken.

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

"That's your first ear."

"I guess so. It would be enough to count those who have actually seen it, etc. The Doft Fill is made of hardened blood, but it has a terribly durable, magical nature."

It is naturally easy to pass through magic because it is originally blood = magic.

"You think you have that knife with that Doft Fill?

"... you're right"

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

"Yeah, but being able to make this means that someone actually crusaded Monarch Kraken. Someone's got a tyrant under the sea..."

Surely that would be outrageous. Even the strength and danger of the monster in the rank SSS is shaking off the meter.

Moreover, movement will be restricted in the sea, and magic will be in a difficult position to use. The winner must be at the monster level because he fought in it and crusaded it.

Besides, it's like proving that such a monster is on Avoros' side.

"Well, maybe there's no line that came up on land for some kind of clap..."

Surely you won't be able to be optimistic. They are all allies of the previous demon kings.

Siuba says it also has a spirit on it, and I can finally be sure that the opponent's fighting power is coming into the paranormal category.

Leo Wood sighs loudly,

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

"What's that crystal ball-like thing?

"Nyohohohohoho! That's what I don't get!

"Don't you see?

"I'm sure it's some kind of magic prop, but I can't figure out how it works."

Uhit says in a way that seems sorry.

"I mean. I asked you to come here because I thought you'd understand."

"... why would I know?

"Gahaha! That's what I'm talking about!

I say with a lavish laugh, is that all right, Beast King?

"... well, I don't know him myself, but it's possible to find out."

"Oh! You still know what I mean! Look, Bransa! Like I said, right? Hiiro said he could do something about it!

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

I haven't responded as Bransa said.

Certainly there is no such thing as "elucidating" or "describing" the Letters Magic, or examining a knife if you use other investigative characters.

But of course there was no way I could have just done that. The sun color itself, my desire for knowledge was painful, and I was attracted to the knife because of it.

"Hey Beast King, as a consideration for appraising a knife, would you like to ask me to do something?

I made a demand for the Beast King.

"- I'm sorry, Hiiro, could you say it again?

Leo Wood, who was told about the consideration for appraising the knife from the sun color, asked again to confirm whether he thought the words coming into his ear were too unexpected to be taken and might have been misheard.

"So I'm telling you - - - He told me to come over a part of the continent."

"............... apparently it wasn't a mistake to ask, but can't we just talk a little too much, Hiiro?

"Then I'm lending you two loans, you can make it chara"

The first is the bet I made when I duelled Leo Wood. I promised I would lend you one if the sun color won.

And the other thing is that Leo Wood healed when he was seriously wounded dying in that duel.

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

"Don't get me wrong, Beast King. The blue ribbon is well lent to him. You don't have to include me."

It is given to Mimil herself as a loan. So there should be two direct loans to the Beast King.

"Yes, no, but... even if they tell you to drop over a part of the continent..."

"What, I thought you were a fat king?

"I don't know everything about the continent, whatever it is, and there is the life of those who live there. Sure, I name my king, but I don't want him wielding power to threaten the lives of others."

What a fine idea. Rudolph, the king of man, is also a word I would like to hear. But the Beast King puts that kind of thing in an irrespective perspective.

"Don't worry. Koch would like to receive an example of... wilderness."

"Example of...? Ma, you mean the [Valar Wilderness] I used in the duel?

"Yeah, that's what Koch thinks."

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

I know that. Without grass there, the presence of monsters and other organisms has not been confirmed. But that's why I chose.

"I told you, that's where Koch's terms are met."

Leo Wood narrows his eyes and stares at him to jizzily observe if he is about to read the idea of the sun color. But it can't be that easy to read the idea of a faceless sun color as a float.

"... what the hell are you going to do over there?

"I don't like to go around, so I'm gonna answer straight in."

Not only is he leowood, but blantha and euhit are also taking solids.

"Make [paradise] over there"

Silence flows as everyone on the spot loses their words to what the sun says.

And finally Leo Wood opens his mouth......

"Ra, paradise...... so?

"Yes."

"Mmm, wait a minute. Why are you my beast? Why would you want to make something like that? Oh, no, what is [paradise] in the first place?

I'm going to ask you a question early on,

"You can't even answer Mr. Hiiro if you ask him at once."

Caught Bransa's attention, and Leo Wood sighs and says, "Right," too.

And I slowly asked him when he took a deep breath to breathe gently.

"Hiiro, I'd like to ask you a lot, but of course you'll answer me, won't you?

"Oh, of course."

"Um, so first of all, what is [paradise]?

"Well, it's simply a place for any guy to enjoy. Or it's like an easy place to live."

"Any guy? What does that mean?

"Before I answer that, there's one thing I need to ask you."

"... what?

"What do you think about the half?

Then Leo Wood's brow moves pickly and gives him a look like he guessed this one's thoughts.

"... you mean, what you call [paradise] is where the world hates the half?

"A little different."

"What?"

"It's not just the half there. It's a place for those who stick out of the public and lose their way to find value in their lives."

"... criminals, etc.?

"Hey, Beast King, who's going to let those dangerous people in? Well, he said it was worth a thought, especially if he changed his mind."

"Hmm? Did you say that? Hiiro, isn't this your idea?

So the sun color taught that the great yuan of this story came out of Lillin.

Lillin said he has dreams of creating [a place for all people to enjoy], but although comrades seem to have increased it slightly on journeys and so on, he had not found the land to build it at the heart.

I was going to do what I could because I would definitely like to see the sun color ahead of that dream too. So he saw the place where the duel had taken place, and told Lillin that the conditions would not be right here.

She also said it was certainly an ideal place, including size and the environment, but it's a continent where the beasts live.

There is no way that Lillin, the 'Demon Nation', can create a [paradise] in such a place. So he remembered that Leo Wood had a loan, and he thought that he would give up the right to use the land as consideration for paying back the loan.

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

"The beast world is a fairly vast continent, to put it bluntly. Besides, it's in the opposite position, and it's best if you think about distance."

"... why the beast world?

"Simply put, it's an erasure method."

"Erase method?

"Yeah, first of all the human world, but it does exist as a continent, but it's narrow, and it's hard to get land from the fact that it's dotted with lots of cities and villages. Besides, I don't think humans would accept this negotiation. At least not now."

There are rumors that those humans bound by King Rudolph especially hate heretics. Half, of course, could be killed just because of the differences in race. There is no room for negotiation in the present situation.

"Um, but the world of demons is also vast. Besides, cities, villages, etc. shouldn't even exist. Even so, there is a settlement. [Paradise] Though I think you'll get enough land to build?

"If it's just land. But the environment is the problem."

"Environment?"

"As you know, the demon world has a tough environment. Sometimes extreme cold land is engulfed by heat the next day. It can change corny as if it were mountain weather. Plus the number of monsters and their strength is a problem. It's pretty hard to find a safe place, mostly with monsters above Rank A."

Looks like Lillin also searched for the right land for it, but couldn't find the right environment for the ideal.

"By comparison, that [Valar Wilderness] doesn't have monsters living nearby, and the land is vast. The problem is pioneering it so people can live there, but that should work out. It's like where people used to live."

"Sure, but you know what? There's no other Demon Clan who built that crater over there, is there?

I also heard the sun color that that crater was made by Avoros, the previous demon king.

"Yet there will be a lot of problems if" Red Rose, "the" Demon Nation, "tolerates making such a thing"

"That's why it's over there."

"... what do you mean?

"Certainly in the past, that is the land that was once destroyed by the 'Demons'. That is why the 'Demons' also bring prosperity there in order to change the common sense of the world today. And you can give that prosperity back to the beasts one by one. That's what he said."

…………

"You don't think anything's suddenly going to change the consciousness of the Beast Man. But they wish they could build a bridge over there where other races can join hands. It is only natural that there are differences in values due to differences in race. But the difference in values doesn't mean that it's a mix of values, it's a mix of values."

Lillin said she had felt like she had no body for a long time. It's something that the race has its own personality and excels at something. Then we'll hit each other with what's outstanding, and if we raise it up, we'll have something better.

"Is that why that place... you mean... Hmm"

Leo Wood puts his hand in his chin and thinks. Fuji's gaze is directed at Uhit.

"Uhit, what do you think of the story now?

"Nyohohohohoho! Is that just a dream story!

"Right."

"That's right..."

"Mm?"

"It sounds interesting ~! Nyohohohohoho!

"... Bransa"

I see her face trying to get an opinion from Bransa as well, but her eyes were glowing.

"You, I do think there are a lot of difficult problems. But I wanted to see that [paradise]."

"Ugh, um... right"

"Yeah, [a place for 10,000 people to enjoy]. If such a place really exists, it will be a place of salvation for everyone. Besides, I asked you a few questions earlier, martial arts tournaments for gourmet tournaments, and concealed arts tournaments for magic tournaments. They all look fascinating and fun!

True to the opposite of Leo Wood, he grins like a child with both hands together.

"I've got other ideas. I'm assuming a sports arena or something."

"Wow, that's a great idea!

The smile looked just like the faces Mimil and Kucleara laughed at. I still have something that I feel is a parent and child.

"Bransa says this, but we still can't get on with that story easily. It is particularly difficult in the present situation. Finally, I made an alliance with the Demons, but I'm still glued to the Humans. And there's the problem with Matal Deus, who attacked this country."

In a harsh face, the shade is also cast down by the look on Bransa's face that was floating.

"Don't get me wrong, Beast King. I just made this point. Whether it becomes a reality or not, you need to talk to Red Lori. I'm only supportive. Ma, if you just gave me that land, the problem would clear up quickly and help, but even if you gave it up, I can't move toward building a garden right now. Koch is a pain in the ass to leave that Temple Demon King alone."

I remember that nigga like I looked down on everyone and I get frustrated.

"Anyway, all you have to do is think positive about this. Let's take that as a consideration for the knife."

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

"Never mind. As a king's position, the judgment is correct now. Like I said, ask Red Lori for more information."

"Right. No, I'm attracted to [paradise] even as a crocodile. If there's a place for everyone to smile, that's a good thing."

Apparently you were right to come and talk to me. It's not like we're going to wrap it up in one go. It was enough to want to compliment Leo Wood for not making an easy decision.

It must have been a harvest just to find out that as kings, and as beasts, you think of the people, and you think of other races.

(Well, let's just say it's one step at a time)
