Kuro no Maou

Episode 368: The Mysterious Mr. Sophie

I walk out of this school building on my back listening to the chimes that mark the end of my lunch break. The foothold becomes natural and heavy.

"... Alsace Fortress, or"

Where we once defended ourselves madly in death is now a major hub for the Crusaders to reach out for their next invasion. That fact alone swirls deep inside your chest with chaotic negative emotions mixed with anger, fear and remorse.

Fortress moving on, soldiers gathering. On the other hand, Sparda's response to increasing vigilance. Signs of rebel movements taking place in Daedalus.

It's good not to see the most worried about Sparda's alarm, but still enough to call it the eve of the war, there's definitely an increase in tension.

That is obvious only with the response of the Crusaders, who do not return the Sparda messenger and do not give any response.

"How much time do we have until they set us up..."

Try crushing it, but you can't possibly know the answer or anything. Sparda's intelligence capabilities are also limited. It's unlikely that the Crusaders will sign up for a showdown as squarely as Dragon King Garvinal did. They show up all of a sudden.

We have to hurry.

Will says if there is no massive invasion by the end of the month, it will be called Antai until next spring. The reason is simple, because it snows.

Central and eastern Pandora, whose seasons have shifted but resemble those of Japan, said it would start snowing as early as November and at the latest mid-December. Incidentally, the equivalent of November is the Moon of Frozen Soil and the Moon of Underground Darkness in December.

Anyway, in that season, the only invasive route from the Daedalus side, the Galahad Mountains, is instantly closed to wind and snow. The great cold wave that truly deserves to be called the arrival of General Winter strikes Sparda.

Well, I haven't experienced winter in Daedalus or Sparda yet, so I don't know what it's actually like, but I'm pretty sure it's because Will says it explains it in serial mode. In fact, Garvinal also said winter was never the only time he had set it up.

Speaking of which, Fiona also said that the Sinclair Republic has had many battles tormented by General Winter. In every country, the difficulty of the winter war is high.

"Still, you can't swallow."

It makes no difference that the enemy is imminent beyond that mountain.

There are four more trials left. Lust, bulimia, arrogance, jealousy, which attributes correspond to this is unknown, but ice, wind, water, light, should remain. The attributes of darkness should be seen as contained in black magic, so they can be excluded.

And in view of the drives of arm strength enhancement, gear of defense enhancement, accelerators of concentration enhancement, and their respective enhancement capabilities, at least speed enhancement will be obtained.

In the system of Modern Magic (Model) Enhancement (Boost), there is also called "Attribute Enhancement (Element Bust)," but, um, it's hard to tell if this effect is available.

Whatever it is, if we are to fight the Crusaders and hence deal with the Apostles, we want to achieve all the trials and have the protection of a true Demon King.

At first I thought it was "a bit squishy" just because of the attribute change, but now that I know the true power, I can understand its awesomeness. Seven of those transcendental enhancement abilities together would certainly not take a pull if you fought the Apostle directly from the front.

That's all hope, that's why we're in a hurry.

"Where are the monsters of the trials... No, I have to look hard for all this..."

In the meantime, let's also gather information in the Adventurer's Guild along with this later shopping trip.

Now that it has finally reached its highest rank of five, it is free to cross beyond the inner walls of Sparda to the upper compartment of the celebrity zone, where nobility also resides. And the headquarters of the Spartan Adventurer Alliance are also available.

If the Alliance headquarters is dedicated to high-ranking adventurers, the monsters have more information than the familiar school district branch. Maybe there's something about the monster you're looking for as a crusade quest for a Rank 5 monster that won't stick out in the branch.

I feel like I'm getting busier and busier with my plans today because of something, but, well, that would be nice. In my current state of mind, relaxing is a sign of anxiety.

By the time I got my thoughts together, I had arrived back at the dorm. As always, a worn-out wooden front door greets me.

I could have gone straight to the city of Sparda, but I thought I'd give Lily and Fiona a shout. Well, I don't know if you two are in the dorm, Lily is in a necropsychiatry (necromancy) class, Fiona is in the big library, and each is likely going. Just in case.

I'm home.

Open the rattling and poorly erected doors with greetings from home that have settled on a level of reflection already.

There's no response, so it looks like there's no two of us after all.

"... ah... my brother... crap..."

But I heard a creaking voice from the lounge just ahead of me as I proceeded down the hallway from the front door.

"Was Simon home already?"

My ears did hear the little voices through the door, too. Simon's poor voice can be heard.

Return home earlier than you thought. Well, I don't care if you're back!

With such a positive conclusion, I open the door to the lounge and say it off.

"Hey Simon, welcome back!

Ever since we rescued him in the ancient castle of Ischia, the face of a beautiful girl, not a beautiful boy elf, has been there.

"Ah... brother... this..."

Yes, Simon is here for sure. But it wasn't a touching reunion between our best friends.

"Hey, you're the rumored Black Nightmare Mad Warrior. (Nightmare Berserker) Chrono, you're interrupting."

Because there are strange third parties here.

That's a beautiful old woman. Brown skin full of exotic charm and genuine holy silver (misrille) like silver hair. And in view of the characteristics of having elongated ears beside Simon, it must be a species called Dark Elves.

Yeah, I knew he didn't know. I don't know any Dark Elves in the first place.

"Speaking of which, I've heard a lot about you, but this was the first time I've seen you -"

See, I knew it was the first time we met. I'm sure, but to be honest, I don't care about that now. The trouble is, I care a lot more than I deduce her qualities.

This sister-in-law is so horny.

"- Nice to meet you. Call me Sophie."

Costumes like Arabian Night dancers. While the design is further elaborated, the description is perfect in terms of high exposure. It's still troublesome because she looks just as good on a glamorous body that embodies a man's delusion as it is on a slurry, stretched tall height.

It is not on a level of luster that her abundant flesh is clearly visible from a wide see-through veil.

What is essentially hiding the living is a white top that keeps the big breasts all ripped off and a hippo bread with a remarkable cloth area. It is very bad for the heart, in a sexual sense, to see a costume with the same underwear flickering from a decorative cloth that is flickering around the chest and waist.

Hi, it's Chrono.

But somehow, I was really critical, but I was able to respond with calm.

Thank you, Mother, because I'm tired of seeing your big tits, I didn't have to be fascinated by this dark erotic Mr. Sophie.

"By the way, Mr. Sophie, what can I do for you?

"To see Simon. Oh, my identity is covered by Lily, so don't worry, I'm not a suspicious person."

"Yeah, well... Lily did introduce me..."

From Simon's testimony, which seems casual everywhere, I guess Mr. Sophie's declaration is true.

Actually, it's her face, but from its clear blue eyes it's covered with a face veil underneath, with a hidden expression. It's clear because it's a veil, and you should be able to see proper nose muscles to mouth and contour lines, but I can't remember why at all.

This strange feeling shows that her faceball is undoubtedly a magic instrument (magic item) with an perceptive inhibitory effect.

If you're hiding your face like that, you're more suspicious than a man in an eye-catching hat, but you can trust Lily if you mean to guarantee your identity. At least, the possibility of her being a horny, attention-grabbing, novice robber crushed.

Well, if you get that far, it's time.

"Really? Well, take your time."

Let's just say the intruder (me) is going to disperse.

"Oh, thank you so much for your concern"

"Oh, no, wait. Hey, brother!

Throughout the pretense that Simon doesn't sound like he's obviously screaming the clasp dialogue, I follow the sleaze and lounge.

"Come back - brother. Come on!!

Hearing the cries of sad Simon everywhere, he closed the door behind his back to never look back.

"I'm sorry, Simon. I can't imitate that I don't read the air on the spot..."

I've done everything I can to read the air. Simon and Sophie were desperate to leave us alone right now.

Is that why? It's easy, at a glance. From that moment I jumped in with the door open "Simon Welcome Back" like Azumi.

Yes, at that point, Mr. Sophie was holding Simon in disappointment. Hot hug, Fallen Love.

I don't have any romantic experience, but if I could show up like that for as much as I want, the two of them would be able to convey the same vibe in a relationship between men and women. I don't like it so much. It's so awkward to see a third party (me) from the side.

I mean, intuitively, "Oh, this is a matter between the parties," he concludes. Hence the intruder. Me, too, and Mr. Sophie's personal referral, Lily. It's only natural that you're not here. Leave it to the two young men.

"... Ha, I guess tonight's drinking party is canceled"

The difference in height buried my face in the valley of my chest and turned bright red. I walk out as I resurrect Simon's figure into my brain.

Looking up, I noticed that the blue sky, which was so clear, had a thin, ragged cloud within a few moments of entering and leaving this dorm. Further ahead of the gaze is the ever-graier cloud sea, approaching Sparda beyond the Galahad Mountains.

"Tonight, you look rough."

After crushing such a cool solitaire, I went shopping in the city of Sparda to forget everything.
