Kujonin

Episode 202

The following morning, Ayr cut down the trees around the castle and began to create fields.

The demons no longer approach the Isle when they see about 10 of them being cut down with a single sword, but they do not care and pruning and drying. Seth and Melmo pulled out the stumps, sifted the soil and leveled.

"After all, there was a well."

Versa has reported.

I thought there might be a well for a big castle because of the attack on soldiers, but it seems that there was a fairly large well. He says he still uses it occasionally, but he is buried in plants and soiled with mold, and he only used it when water was scarce.

It seems that the living water so far was pumped from a stream in the forest, or stored in a water bottle when it rained.

Clean the well with me and Bersa. Bow continues to repair the collapsed area of the castle. The field is under the command of Rita, with Aisle, Seth and Melmo working on it.

Rita asked Aracune for an interpreter, listened to the vegetables and fruits that can be harvested in the forest, and tried to ask the demons to collect seeds, but the demons seemed to have different preferences, and they were not good at carbohydrates. Were there.

"Because I can't say that I'm not good at it, I need to eat anything I can eat to get the power!"

When Rita complained, the Goblin boy had picked up a loud monster called Mandragora, and said that the eardrums of the demons who were there were about to break.

"For the time being, I'm going to make spirilina for the sake of potatoes and nutrients."

Rita seems to have decided to make something similar to the southern hemisphere dwarves while holding his head. Work has been started on a separate site from the field for Spilirina, digging a hole to collect water, and creating a pond.

Sometimes, demons said that a boar monster called a field boa appeared in the forest, so if you found them, you would breed them as livestock.

As we communicated with Arachne, more and more demons came to understand what we wanted to do, and some began to take part in the work. Until now, they seemed to have to wander the forest in search of food or go out and steal human settlements. I was worried that the demonic territory was well established. There used to be a special demons who gathered food, but they were taken by humans.

All the demons were surprised when Bow made a simple pot with clay. Nobody was surprised when I drew the heating magic circle. When I asked Arakne why I was surprised, I thought that my magic circle was not something anyone could do, but a special person, but Bow made a pot with ordinary soil on the spot and in a way that anyone could do It seemed to be a breakthrough.

The ability to bake and heat food seems to be important even for the demons, and there were many meaningless kilns around the castle. I didn't want to cook anything, but it seemed worthwhile to make my own oven.

They only cook twice a day, in the morning and evening, but the demons were lining up in line when they knew that if they followed the rules properly, they would be able to get to the rice. If anyone comes in, they solve it themselves. Arachne told me that Bow's draw on the predecessor's blood had an effect. It seems that a genie named Gargoyle, which had been turned into a stone statue on the roof, remembered the bow.

"From the time of Jijii, the demons have been watching the castle for a long time.

Bow was scratching his head as if shy.

However, the bow has just begun to be relied upon by demons. The demons of large bodies said that cooking is not enough. Naturally, it consumes a lot of energy, but feeding it here will not help the demons.

"Fuha, don't you hunt?"

When Bow asks the big first demons,

"In the forest, the magic of fire, the human beings are lurking, the territory is hunted for a long time from the robbery."

Arachne interpreted.

"Fuha, but if you don't eat it, you'll be fine. Would you like to go at night? Naoki will also ask with a helper. I'll choose the demons to go hunting by then."

"Okay. Call me when you go."

I headed to the tent where we were sleeping. We have tents near the castle, because the castle is a space for the demons and it's easier to get outside. When cleaning, cooking, and repair work were not required, it was the company's policy to prevent the demons from interfering as much as possible. At best, I go to the rooftop for watching.

Isle was regrettable that I would go hunting with the great demons at night.

"I hate you, I am."

"Isn't he afraid rather than hated?"

Seth had put Tsukkomi in Ayr's words.

"Cool beauty is easily misunderstood."

An abrupt remark came out of the Isle.

"I heard an incredible lie now."

"This is a statement that doubts your ears."

"Which do you want to laugh or want to laugh at?"

Neither me nor Melmo or Versa had trouble with the reaction.

"Eh! Isn't I a cool beauty?"

"This, this guy, is it natural?"

"Let's do something, the frustration will not stop!"

"How did you hold your fist like this? Let's teach the body properly."

Our patience was quickly broken by Ayr with a serious face, and a great sermon began. Eventually, we settled on the definition of cool beauty and the actions of Aisle, showed them a contrasting table, and made sure that there were no guzzling sounds.

The demons seem to be watching this from the castle, and will change their attitude toward the Isle the next day.

Late into the night, Bow came out of the castle, bringing together large demons. Gargoyle, Arachne and the first big demons. The first big demons are called Cyclops.

"As soon as Arachne sets a trap and drives him away, the monster will be caught immediately. Fuha."

Contrary to Bow's words, looking at the detection skills, the monsters around us fled as we approached, not a trap.

He says that his body is big and the sound when approaching is loud and the smell is so strong that he can be distinguished even from a kilometer away.

"Do you want to hunt?"

The three demons held their bellies and nodded. He seems to be hungry.

"By the way, what skills do you have?"

"Language ability, hallucinatory magic skills. Demo, demons or magic arrive?"

"Hidden Skills. Demo, Use To Move"

"Body strengthening skills. I and Chikara are al. Demos and attacking monsters."

I answered my questions in the following order: Arachne, Gargoyle, Cyclops.

"Bow, was there anyone more?"

"Fuha, no other demons are afraid of humans."

"I can say that ..."

The demons are afraid that even if they hear the leaves rubbing in the darkness of the forest, they may have appeared. My body is big but my mind is small.

"It's okay if humans appear. I'm human. What kind of monsters are in this forest?"

"Field boa, Forest deer, and Finake"

It's a boar monster and a deer monster. Also, wasn't Finek a large snake monster that Ayr had been asking for before?

"Do you dig a pit and use it for sleeping pills? Do you know about poisonous plants?"

"Know the grass that feels good"

Isn't that a bad guy?

"Is that a guy who dries with maple-like leaves and smokes?"

"Saw! Sore!"

Isn't that a bad guy!

"Don't smoke again! It's better to know about the plants used for sleeping pills and narcotic drugs.

"Konna, can you find the dark two?"

"Fuha, no problem. Look, this and this."

Already found Bow, she lit the poisonous grass at the magic stone light.

"If you remember where it grows, what smells it, and how it feels, you'll be able to understand it even if you don't look so much.

It is a poisonous plant used in the world tree. Never miss even the slightest light of a magic stone lamp.

I thought I might end with a poisonous herb tonight, and stepped on hard, non-soil ground.

When turned on, the cobblestone road was buried in grass and moss.

"this is?"

"Fuha, the ruins of the road to Demon Castle. Are there any demons you use anymore?"

Considering the position of the moon, the highway seems to extend from north to south.

"If you go south, it's Demon Castle. It's a castle where demons live. How far is the north?"

"Fuha, there must have been a swamp, but ..."

"Now now. Humans are swampy without swamps."

Arachne said.

"Can I lose the swamp?"

Having some bad feeling, I decided to head north along the road while teaching poisonous grass to the three demons.

Moss and short grass were unlimitedly stretched along the highway, with tree branches and vines covering it.

"I just need to learn poisonous tonight."

The three demons suddenly recovered and walked in front of me and Bow. I wondered if I was hungry, but I'll be fine while I'm moving. Rather than that, I was so good at it, so I wanted to get it back and managed to break down the branch that stretched out on the road and breeze it. Should I do what I can do little by little?

"But it seems like this highway hadn't been used for a long time ..."

"Fuha, I was beautiful when I was there."

Behind the three demons preparing the road, Bow and I started talking while walking gently.

"Why is Bow missing from the Demon Lord?"

"I guess it was five or six years ago. Among the demons who reported directly to the Demon King, the grandfather of Turtle Haze died, and seven other people began calling themselves the Demon King.

"Oh, he said that. Perhaps one of them might have exterminated us on another continent. Sorry."

"I didn't know because I was out of the demon territory myself. I was expelled against seven people.

Being able to laugh at what passed is Bow's strength.

"Bow is drawing the Demon King's blood, so didn't he want to become a Demon King?"

"I don't have it. I was better suited to repairing or building a house. Fuhaha. This is also Jijii's will." The Demon King ends with me. Everyone is involved with the devil. I guess, I think it was more expensive to pay than the power of contracting with the devil.

Bow stretched out and said, Surprisingly, she seems to be proud of her predecessor, Demon King.

"Bow-sama returns, Kite, your father in this world, is he happy?"

Arachne looked back and said:

"The dead demons will not be pleased. He was so crazy about what I did. Fuha."

"Huh? Wait a minute. Bow. Did the predecessor Demon King die 300 years ago?"

"Yeah. I got stuck in a subordinate and died in a tattered state, battling with a water hero. I think it was the last time for my father.

"If so, how many years are you?"

"I'm a little over 300. Fuha, what's that face?

Rita is in her twenties, so what a difference couple! I've been living together for two years, but it's still a shocking fact.

"I'm a great senior in life."

"Yeah, now. Fuha.

Suddenly, the three demons no longer sounded breaking branches.

The forest and cobblestones disappeared when the front was illuminated with a magic stone lamp, and a dark space was spreading.

There is a large round hole like a crater more than 100 meters in diameter, and you can see the faint light of a magic stone lamp on the other side. Someone seems to live.

"Where was this swamp?"

"So death"

Certainly the swamp has disappeared and is now a hole.

"Fuha, right. That's right ..."

Bow looked at the hole and muttered as though he was convinced.

"Bow, what was it?"

"This is the quarry of the magic stones for humans. It was the place where our jijii died 300 years ago. Did you pick up magic stones at this?

I remember drinking a spring water and burning a deer monster.

Certainly, that fountain must have been near the trunk of the World Tree. That is, near the devil's corpse. If the Demon King had a lot of magic power, though not as bad as the devil, he might have died and had a magic pool. If so, there are many magic stones buried in the swamp, and it is no surprise that it was a quarry.

"... But I dug so well.

"Yes, erasing one such big swamp is a big business, and it would have been better."

"Is it used for" quick-fire sticks "and airships?"

"I see. Are you all brought to the country of fire ..."

We were staring at a huge black hole stunned for a while.
