Maou Gun Saikyou no Majutsushi wa Ningen datta

"Old-fashioned advice, but I'm always open to gibberish. Don't hesitate to jump into the concubine's chest if you really don't think you can. Good boy, good boy."

"Please don't treat me like a child. How old do you think I am now?"

"No matter how old you are, you are my concubine's brother."

Sephiro has said in such a voice that I can only hear him as he opens the door to the basement that was hidden behind the workshop.

The door, which was strictly covered by a number of magic tricks, took a few minutes to open. The way she decurses every single magic for locking reminds me now that she is a leading magician.

Eventually, the rusty door opened with an unpleasant noise.

"Well, I'll be there. Captain."

"Um, I hope it's a good fight"

I cut ahead and sink into the door.

At the end of the descent using the ladder, a dark passage spread from left to right.

Maybe there's nothing like this in the dark, in the Demons, but I can't see an inch ahead of you being a human being. I had no choice but to light the magic of Light (Magic Light) at my fingertips and look around to be vigilant around me.

"............ ooh"

Unexpectedly leaks an exclamation.

A number of magic formations were set up in the left and right aisles, as obviously as this was still the case. It would be a mechanism by which magic would strike just passing nearby. The demonic method is complicated and I can't read it all, but at the beginning it was quite difficult.

Still, there is a slight difference between left and right.

There are more magic formations on the left and slightly less on the right.

"Wow! So, sir, Ike's husband. That's a lot of magic."

Giron, an orc who followed me down to the basement, sounded like he was in a panic.

Apparently, this man, he's quite a caretaker.

"What do you want me to do? Right and left, it's a sudden branch."

"Right............... Giron, which would you choose?

"Yeah ⁉ Oh, is that me? ⁉ Hey, I'm refreshed about that..."

"Whatever. Say it."

"Yeah... well, is it the left?"

"What makes you think that?

"On the left, there's a lot of magic formation, isn't there? Is the workshop an important place for a magician like Master Sephiro? I thought it would be natural to install more traps so that we can't break in."

"Hmm, I see."

That makes sense. This oak, the outgoing head, seems to cut it.

But that's still a red dot.

"Then we'll go the right way."

"Yes ⁉Oh, do you ignore my opinions ⁉"

"That's what you think, that's what many demons think. The captain is deliberately setting up a lot of traps in anticipation of that. It's like leading us down the wrong path."

"Oh, is that so?

"That's who he is, that's who he is"

Imagine Sephiro laughing when I was choosing the left, exhaling unexpectedly.

Scratching people's backs sounds good, but the bottom line is how to fit people well into the traps they make. In that sense, there would be no other evil as sexual as Sephiro's.

Besides that guy, it's scary because he comes off the stone about once every three times.

Anyway, on the road to the right, I'll take the demons with me.

Traps that activate if you go near them, traps that activate at random, traps that activate regardless of distance. The variety varies, and besides, there is no uniformity. Most of them were embedded in walls, and it was hard to discover them.

It really helped that I was familiar with Sephiro's personality.

Thanks to this, I can prepend the trap position.

Exploration and the magic of Clairvoyance (Skeleton Eye) to accurately read the position of the trap and convey it to the army of demons following it. Some traps are activated if you don't step on the floor in the correct order, and the position is also communicated in detail.

Because of that, the trap itself was activated quite a few times.

Nevertheless, many people are still defiant of following me. A lot of guys disobeyed my instructions just because of their bouncing guts, or simply stepped off their feet with a huge mess of character.

Every time, 'kachi' sounds unpleasant.

"Wow, ⁉"

"-" Barriers ""

At the same time a scream occurs behind me, I perform the magic of Barrier, which omits chanting.

Receive the Fireball, which flew in the middle of the line, in the Barrier. "Fireball" has nevertheless tried to penetrate the demonic flock, but eventually disappeared fine.

Phew, it's dangerous.

"Ah, Ike............ Dear Sir, Thank you."

"Fine. Follow the instructions properly."

"Yes!

You give me a good reply, but I didn't trust that reply.

In this large area, it is difficult to convey the order. I'm sure it'll be the same when you get out on the battlefield. No, in a battlefield with complex information, my instructions may be harder to convey.

I can't let every soldier do what he wants.

That was a precious lesson for me to lead the battlefield as commander from now on. Or maybe Sephiro created a stage like this to let me know.

Dive into the labyrinth, nearly half an hour has passed. But there are still 0 casualties.

Whatever the wounded, though I'm not going to let the dead out.

Still, I felt kind of empty in the chest to be able to break Sephiro's prophecy.

Plus, my magic arm and my arm to discover the trap are gradually being passed on to the troops.

"Hey. You, you know where the trap is?

"I have no idea. But he knows who that Ike is, doesn't he?

"Oh, and he's showing me how I can get around the trap."

"Even if the trap moves, you'll defend it. You can walk safely."

"Master Sephiro said that if you dive alone, you'll die for sure, right?

"That's not true at all...... could that guy be awesome?

I know you're going to be talking in a whisper, but you can hear the whole thing in an underground labyrinth where your voice is easily echoed.

Anyway, my strength seems to be steadily accepted by the Demons.

I hope things go well at this rate.

"What. I can't measure my strength like this. Don't let them fool you."

There's a guy who's going to say something against it.

It's Lilith, a horny demon girl. This visibly brown-skinned girl has great expectations of being a brigade leader, she tells me to hustle and tell, as loud as it sounds to me away.

"They're guiding us so that the trap doesn't work, but we don't know if there was any more trap there than it wasn't activated. 'There's a trap,' you're probably just letting us assume. I knew you'd be sweet on that guy if you were like Sephiro."

"... Shut up, Lilith. Lord Ike will hear you too."

"I don't care if you heard me. Anyway, I'm not convinced."

"... the magic of the Barrier, I think, is brilliant. Even an attack by a famous human witchcraft seems to prevent this."

"Huh. You can't win a battle just to protect it. Attack, attack, attack."

"... then you tell Master Sephiro. We'll have to make sure he's good at a duel or whatever."

"You don't have to tell me. I'm going to."

The dragon clan Sigan seems to be forgiving Lilith for swelling her cheeks.

It is suspected that Sephiro is doing less, but at the same time, there is no choice. I'm the only one keeping the trap from working in the first place to take safety precautions. He asked me if there was really a trap, so why don't I activate it? I can't say to boulders.

Getting casualties out of that is a ridiculous story too.

As a matter of fact, the magic formations that purposefully activate the spell-class magic are also breaking through in peace...... I just said that, and if you don't believe me, it doesn't make any sense.

I wonder if this could even be a duel with Lilith when you're done using the underground labyrinth.

I don't really like to argue within my people, but if you don't have any credibility so far, you have no choice.

Oh, my God, I was thinking swallowing, then.

"Ahhh!? What is this, what is this?

A scream of a tall lilith echoed through the underground labyrinth.
