I'm Lilia.
Bestier, the kingdom of the Beasts, he is a dog beast working in the King's Capital Defense Forces. I started working as a soldier last year. This year, I was assigned to the Wang Metropolitan Defense Force.
Oh, I went to soldier training school for three years before working as a soldier. Because of his good grades there, he was assigned to a floral department called Wang Du's defensive unit. It's the one called speed birth.
I was entrusted with the task of vetting prospective entrants at the Inquisition, one of the tasks of the King's Capital Defense Forces. In front of the Wang capital's checkpoint, there are also checkpoints for entering the country, so many disturbing elements will be bounced there that will flip anti-flags against the country.
So I had a peaceful day for it.
But roughly a month ago now, the scourge of destroying the peace in the King's capital descended upon the land.
The demon came to this country.
The root of all evils in this world is the Evil God. There is a demon in its subordinate, and there is a demon in its subordinate, where demons serve demons and demons.
Looks like some demons are stronger than demons and don't accept demon orders though.
The point is, demons are the intermediate managerial beings of those who take evil... their power was overwhelming.
A demon with two large horns, who suddenly appeared in this country, devastated a squadron of the National Army that was in training. So many beastmen have been scratched and died.
Actually, there was Sally, a cat and beast who was in sync with me at the soldier training school. She stood up to the demon and was destroyed her right hand and both legs. He didn't even know what they did.
Though she retained her life, she can no longer fight as a soldier. Because it was such a major injury that it was difficult to even live a decent life.
Her condition was stable when I went to see her, but when she saw me, she cried out.
"Lilia, I can't fight anymore."
That's what I said. A large tear spilled out of her eyes. Only in battle do battle-based beasts have their souls shining brightest. It's a race that rejoices in being able to fight.
All I could do was hold her, crying.
She (Sally) was much stronger than me. I couldn't believe that she took the damage so far, before I knew what had been done.
The demon who gave Sally despair managed to repel the king of this country and the most powerful soldiers, the Beast King Soldier.
But the king also fell by the devil's curse. There is no stronger power in this country than a king and a Beast King soldier. Because the strongest beast man can be king.
Despair and fear have spread to the country.
If the demon comes again......
The military superiors thought the demons were coming to attack this country again. And we, the soldiers, had a circular to prepare for the raid.
Even with it in place, what can we do against demons that the king can't win?
I got scared, but I can't get away. We have to protect the non-combatant beasts in the king's capital.
I'm a soldier.
Then a month went by, but the demon still won't come. The damage done by the king seemed quite significant. But stay alert.
It was such a day.
I met him when...
Since the demon raid, the country has stepped up its vigilance and most soldiers have cemented their guard of the stronghold in a formation for the anti-demon.
To be honest, the security of the checkpoint was modest, as it was not often assumed that demons who could emerge anywhere using the gates of different worlds would honestly come in through the gates of the Wang Capital.
Usually, many soldiers in charge of the checkpoint are also taken to security elsewhere, with only the minimum personnel required here. So the head of the checkpoint and I, then the two beasts who were off that day, were turning the checkpoint with a total of four soldiers.
Well, few people came to the inquisition in the first place because there were capital regulations in place in preparation for the demon raid. The job was to the extent of issuing temporary residence permits to merchants who came and driving tourists back.
On the (...) day (...) of that (...), I was working with the head of the inquisition. You are powerful enough to be entrusted with the responsibility, but you are an animal man who also takes the initiative to treat recruits like me with ease and tightness.
Such a head of the inquisition called me. They said someone came to say they wanted to take the 'trials'.
"Now follow me"
Am I a human youth and a hooded cat beast? I came to a test site where there was no overwhelming (untouched).
Truth be told, at this time, I had no expectations of these two.
The trials forbid the use of magic. And I didn't feel much of a struggle from people's youth.
But once you're asked for a review, you have to respond.
Even if you say a trial, it only destroys a fixed target, but you have to ask the recipient about their country of origin, their name, etc.
The name of the youth of the people, he said, is Mr. Hart. I say you're from a country of people named Glendale, but what are you doing from such a far away place?
Does the beast girl you're with have anything to do with it?
Um, something smells like this girl, I think I've smelled it somewhere... I can't remember.
When I was thinking about that, all of a sudden, Mr. Hart had a flaming spear on hand. Naturally, the demon-detected crystal reacts violently.
"Hey, what are you doing!? I told you no magic!
"Oh, I'm sorry. Want to know what happens when you use magic."
My attention has been lightly flushed.
"I will reset the crystal balls for now, but I will disqualify them as soon as I use the same magic next time."
That said, I reset the crystal balls.
Did you think I wouldn't find out at all anymore?
I decided that he would not be fraudulent or make a good observation.
... Is that it? Are you feeling swollen?
I doubted my senses. Because Mr. Hart's fighting spirit felt stronger than that of the king of this country.
After that few seconds I will be even more stunned. Mr. Hart blew his invincibility. Nor did the magic detected crystal react.
"─ ─ Become, eh, ha!?"
I didn't know what that meant. Mr. Hart is a skinny man, and he shouldn't even be using magic.
And yet they let the invincible blow up a few meters. Incidentally, the invincible weighs a few tons.
Then again and again I checked the record of the crystal of demon detection.
"Lie, there's no sign of any use of magic at all..."
Especially odd is that there was no record of even using physical enhancement magic. Here in Bestier, during trials, only physical strengthening magic is allowed. So the Demon-Detected Crystal also does not respond to flesh-enhanced magic.
I don't react, but I keep a record of using flesh-enhanced magic.
─ ─ I don't have it.
I mean, Mr. Hart really didn't use any magic, he blew his invincibility. Do you even have any special skills?
I wanted to ask you a lot, but shortly afterwards the head of the inquisition came and followed Mr. Hart's wishes and took them to the King's inner city.
