That night, I was sleeping in the front wing's curtain house.My feet didn't move as I expected, so Mei and Vargis, whom I met every night this evening, came to the front.
"Can you cast the magic of fortification?If you can't do it, I'll have the Demon King spend the rest of the day explaining it to him from Alisa. "
May makes a gentle request.As I lay in bed, I nodded silently several times.
"Okay, I'll explain to Mao-chan."
"Please."
Mae says so and puts her face out through the curtain house exit.I hear a voice saying, "Devil, come here a minute."I will explain the situation to Vargis, who came in with May, and instead I will ask him to apply the magic of strengthening.
"... I thought calmly, but other superiors won't let me do this.Isn't that normal? "
May says worried, but Vargis denies it.
"The powerful are so desperate for their lives.If you need to be able to perform at your best, don't hesitate to ask.My concubine will help you as much as possible. "
"Okay."
Mae returns to her clear face and says, "Well, I have work to do.I'm busy leaving tomorrow.Alisa, we'll continue tomorrow, "she said, leaving the curtain house early.After I saw him off, Vargis sat on the chair next to my bed.The sweet scent of Vargis is coming and my body is peeling off somewhere.
What about the second strategic magic?
"Yeah, it's taking a lot of health away.The day before yesterday, even after Vargis burned the whole gift, it was flat, I think it was amazing. "
"My concubine finally stood after that.Tactical magic can be used several times and you'll get used to it. "
I wonder if that's what it is.
That way, I gaze at the ceiling.
"What was that dream?"
As soon as I blur, Vargis reacts.
What is a dream?
"Ah... yeah, I dreamt while I was losing consciousness using strategic magic. In the gift, all the houses that were supposed to be burned were restored, and there were a lot of people and they were alive.So people come to me and say, "Thank you, thank you."I didn't do anything, and I was a little scared... "
"There's nothing you haven't done.The thoughts of those who died as zombies may have made Alisa dream like that. "
"Thoughts..."
I hear stories about spirits and grudges in this world.
"I suppose you wanted to thank Alisa for cleansing your gift."
Vargis strokes my head lying in bed.It was a little rough compared to Raj, but my hands are warm and I feel a pleasant shake.
"Well, I'm still..."
"Modesty is not good. In fact, Alisa has saved the lives of many soldiers and brought many enemy generals into submission.And now, purify the gift and thank the spirit.Alisa may be a saint. "
"Virgin"
I narrow my eyes.I blurred my vision and soon realized it was tears.
"I'm not that virtuous. I killed a lot of people, and when I burned the gift, I let it go even though there might still be survivors on the gift."
"That's what all the Virgins say. You can't grow up just by slowly returning your bad things, Alisa."
Vargis strokes my head again.Shaken by that, I was emptying my head.
◆ ◆ ◆
The next day, 600,000 Demon King troops passed through Alisa's purified and clean land.
The Demon King Army is leaving the gift and heading to Honeym.Even though the distance from Giff to Honeym is very long, there is no city on the way.It will take two days if it is a carriage.You passed through a small town called Ikuhino when we took refuge, when we went from Honeym to Giff.Instead of taking a detour to a small town like Ikhino this time, it looks like you're heading straight for Honeym.You can camp because you're an army.
Information on our march was immediately reported to Lord's Castle in Honym by a scout who was watching over Giff from afar.
The lord is dismayed to hear of a scolding report coming to the hall.
"Oh my God, did you drop a gift? This Honey is smaller than a gift.Besides, the King says he can't send reinforcements unless he shows his sincerity. How many armies can we intercept with our own army with only 60,000?Is it okay if this is unreasonable? "
"Lord, please be careful."
One of the ministers goes on and says:
"Fortunately, there is still a distance from the enemy forces.We still have time. In the meantime, let's make a plan. "
"What? Do you have a good idea?"
"Thank you."
The minister nods with confidence.
"There's a regular visitor to a red-brick tavern just outside this town named Vaisa.Their spear is powerful enough to alter the terrain. "
"Hmm, I've heard that before.Rumor has it they're descendants of the general of a country that was destroyed hundreds of years ago. "
"We also have information that he is a disciple of Harass."
"Well, that apprentice of Haras... Haras has been sentenced to honor, but let's use whatever is available to him."
People are immediately sent to the tavern.
On that day, as usual, Vaiza was taking her friends out for a drink.Vaisa was huge enough to be seen from afar.Pour a small glass of liquor into that big body and say "refill" immediately.
I drink a lot today too.
An old woman who runs an izakaya serves her next drink with a smile.
Two of the lord's messengers, who were watching him in the corner of the tavern, asked him several times, "I'm sure he is." Then they stood up from their seats and called out to Vaisa.
"Excuse me, I see you are the descendant of an exiled general, Visa."
But Visa ignores it and keeps drinking.
"What if, Miss Vaisa?"
Over and over again, Visa ignores everything.The messengers had to be paranoid behind Visa.
So after drinking a few drinks, Vaisa puts the glass on the table and talks.
"Bitches like you can't be loud.Bring me the right guy. "
That's how Vaisa left.
After hearing this, the lord sends a messenger to his immediate subordinate.Although Vaisa is the descendant of an exiled minister, she is now a civilian.It is quite unusual for a nobleman to pick up a civilian directly.However, Vaisa sees a landlord's minister standing in front of the shop dressed so nicely as not to resemble the shop, and immediately turns back without entering the shop.
The following day, the story was reported in the Great Hall of Lord's Castle, angering the ministers.
"I've never heard of such a generous man.You're cheating on civilians. "
We should execute him.
The ministers say woosh, but the lord stomps and silences them.
"All right, all right. It's an emergency.I'll pick you up myself. "
"But when the nobles go to pick us up, they ignore us, and we're being licked by a civilian."
"Before an emergency, it doesn't matter if you have a different identity. I'm going."
That's what the lord said, standing on the throne and leaving the hall.
