Departing north of the city, over the mountains and even over the Great Plains, it becomes the Time Realm Desert. Along the way, "she” finally reached the place of destination, looking sideways at the decaying appearance of the Magic Guided Weapon, which served as the raw material for the sand of the Time Realm Desert.

She decided to extend her legs to the northwest of the Time Desert in order to negotiate with a clan known as the Blood Clan. Face-to-face with them will be the first time in 200 years indeed. It should only be about 7 or 80 years in the world over there, but thanks to that, "she” is getting old as well.

They call it the "New World” by those of the Central Continent. This Celia has its own civilization.

but those who know it are limited. None of the adventurers coming this way from the Central Continent will be aware of it. That's a very small part of the central empire's imperial chamber, and then there's the blood clan.

She goes to the negotiations as the representative of Ceria, whose diverse mix of civilizations. The bloodline should have some idea of the situation in Celia, so the landings of the argument were visible to each other. In short, we just have to pierce each other's non-interference.

She moves her four legs supple and steps over the chilled sand. I don't feel too cold because my blocked and raised golden hair keeps me warm. Around there was a fox fire that lit up the march at night.

"When you get around here, don't get into trouble with adventurers"

She shrugs as she looks over the wide desert. A young fox walking beside him raised his face.

"Adventurers hear these days that they are keen to capture ayakashi, so you might want to pay attention"

"What, to the extent of adventurers around there, I'm not going to be late yet"

She laughs as she flickers her nine tails.

That said, of all the foxes released to the scouts, some are not coming back. I am not going to insult some of the humans because they can cross more than their equivalents, and the fact is, those humans made them lick the bitter juice 200 years ago.

Negotiations with the blood clan will be tomorrow. Should I rest around here? It's when she thinks so. Of the foxes that did not return, three returned from the western side of the desert. If you look, the three of them are putting something in their mouths and dragging them over the sand.

"My lord!

One of the foxes screamed.

"It's a downfall. Or it's a flying down!

"I was flying at full speed and going straight into the sand and losing my mind!

"What do you do!?

That's what the foxes say to each other, so she leans her neck and walks over too. From the mouth of the foxes, they are not adventurers. Nor would it be the devil (demon). In Celia, it's customary to kill the demon's family as soon as you find them.

She was surprised to see that shadow the foxes had pulled.

On a body covered in black feathers, a trainee outfit. With big mouths and wings, it was something she and the foxes knew well.

"Raven Tengu? Why are you here?

"Did the superiors make us follow them?"

"Then you can't be in the west. Are you a hacker?

From what I've seen, I seem to be weary and tired, but I don't see any noticeable trauma. Raven Tengu is not so rare in itself, but I can't imagine the circumstances a bit that only one can be found out of Celia's civilized area.

Still, the basics are a breed that can be described as compatriots. It won't even get in the way. She instructed the foxes to hold him. The foxes nod and carry Raven Tengu's body into the nearby rock shade.

Raven Tengu woke up when it wasn't long after that.

"Menstruation, that kind of mind called" magical fringe ”"

As a child, he was told that by a man who lived in a neighborhood mountain.

"It is also a word referring to the Three Obstacles Four Demons, but it refers to the training monks who were imprisoned in their chronic hearts and fell into the demonic realm after their death, and it is called" witchcraft ". The demonic realm is just off the six tracks of reincarnation. There will be no rebirth no matter how much time passes, and therefore its soul will not be saved '

The man went on to talk about something difficult afterwards, but on balance, that was the beginning of the story: 'Don't be a Tengu'.

Don't be complacent about your talent. Always have a humble heart. Maybe that's fine now, but eventually I'll stop standing around. What can be cleverly done is that it's only a narrow world story that works, he said.

It's a sermon stink story, so I wasn't listening properly. To him like that, the man had a frightened sigh. Only, I remember.

The man's words, every time he grew up, became realistic. My own chronic mind is catching up with my surrounding talents. Eventually, he is pursued twitching his place, and now, finally, he loses the spot.

Would the story have been different if I had been more humble, more receptive to reality and able to discipline myself?

"Ugh..."

Wumaru Yoshisuke regained consciousness, holding the thought of no more. The surroundings are dim, but blurry lights illuminate. That's when Wumaru flew away from the hills where his companions were flying straight for the lights that floated in the desert.

But in the end, I lost my mind, either from hunger or from the cold of the desert at night, trying to run out of strength quickly and stick it straight into the sand.

There are several faces in Xia's sight that peek into this one. Apparently, he took care of himself.

I have to thank you, and it wasn't the human face that popped into the eyes of the squid that opened its eyes clearly.

"... whoa!?

its thin, pointy beast face. On its face lit by a blurry flame, Umaru jumps away.

"Ki, fox......!?

I thought it was a dog, but no. It's a fox. For Umaru, it's more familiar as a use of Inari Shrine than as a wildlife. But either way, I didn't expect to come to this other world and meet a fox in the middle of the desert.

Is a fox something that lives in the desert? and twisting his neck, the foxes turn their gaze backwards.

"My lord! I'm awake!

"(Talked!?

Even unicorns talk slime. What do you sometimes marvel at where the fox has spoken?

Even so, basically, all I've ever been able to talk to is my classmates. Umaru feels fiercely uncomfortable about these doomed foxes speaking plainly. At the same time, the word 'fox fire' crossed the back of his brain when he saw a creepy flame floating loosely in the desert at night.

Aren't these foxes just beasts, too? Monsters?

Speaking of which, Kyosuke and the engaged adventurers said they were looking for unique rare monsters, only on this continent. That's why Azuki was targeted. Don't they mean monsters like Japanese monsters?

So are these foxes a kind of monster like that?

When Umaru is turning his mind around, from behind them, 'Nooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo

"Did you wake up"

"... whoa!?

Umaru glanced again.

The fox who glanced at him there was a monster with a golden fur, far more than what Umaru knew. From around the tail, seeing nine tails swinging, Umaru is convinced.

Again, these foxes are monsters.

Umaru had his head confused by what was going on in front of him and completely blew up Moya Moya and other things he had held in until then.

"Yeah... Oh, what about you!? I mean, um, did you guys just give me a hug?

"Ho."

The great fox narrows his eyes.

"Don't you know Non? It's not a mountain eagle after all."

"Of the mountains...?

"It's also the use of superiors. but it doesn't even look like an enemy."

The great fox of Nine Tails looked up at the sky, scratching his head with his forelegs. The bright moonlight makes its furrows glow beautifully.

"I could send him to the mountains. Either way, after this one's done. Well, I just took one of Raven Tengu, and they're even more suspicious."

"Ha ha... Uh."

What the hell is a fox in front of you saying with one? Umaru tries to grasp the situation by fully running his brains that can keep deviations around 60 without having to study.

The mountain must be the home of these foxes. There were mountains where the monsters lived, and they came from there. Raven Tengu also lives there. The great fox says you can take Umaru, the uncharted, but seemingly raven heavenly dog, home there.

Superior, I don't really know what that means, but I know what kind of superior you call a famous Buddha monk. Perhaps there is a monster called the Superior, who controls the Raven Tengu.

This is an errand, but I'm not sure. From where they say they're suspicious, they meet someone face-to-face.

For that reason, if you came all the way out to this desert, the people are the ones who are stationed near here.

Kyosuke, then, it won't just be there. If you're in contact with them, you should know about Umaru, too.

Even an adventurer, there shouldn't be. Doesn't seem like they know about the monster mountain.

When that happens, blood clan.

It could be something else, but I haven't seen a life form that I've spent the last few days around the desert and could otherwise negotiate.

Aren't these foxes trying to make some sort of bargain with the blood clan?

"Well, if you have any other purpose, there's no stopping you."

Said the great fox, looking at the u-maru as he conceived it.

"This is good for the same ayakashi. I don't know what to do."

Sure, the reason I've always been here is not in Umaru. It's not a very good story to be taken to the mountains where the monsters live. Seems like a decent option to leave here in thanksgiving.

I suppose it was true that we were away here and there was nowhere to go in Umaru.

I can't go back to Kyosuke and congratulate her right now.

It's a chance, depending on what you think. If you can pretend to be one of these monsters and make contact with your blood clan, you may even get special information that you have never had before. The whereabouts of the fallen spider zaki and tentacle plains in the hands of the enemy may also be found.

If I could bring that information back, I'd still be there for myself.

Umaru replied.

He was unaware that the idea was precisely the underlying utilitarian spirit and arrogance of "witchcraft”.

Kyosuke Akagi and the others will go to negotiate with the adventurers the following morning.

Weigan had a good breakfast and tied his arms and chewed monkey monkeys so that he couldn't use magic for one second, but I decided to untie him because I was starting to feel kind of pathetic watching him. Instead, as soon as you make a strange move, the dog god will fly, and with an arrangement that will allow you to freeze and grind under the snow, you will head to the negotiating place.

Apparently, the magic Weigan specializes in is the main thing that deals with thunder, and then ice, wind, etc. He's not very good at fire attributes that can be deadly under snow or Rin.

"Mr. Weigan, is human magic different from what we use?

"No. Monsters who can use magic often use magic by connecting with spirits who are born with high affinity. A form of spiritual magic."

Waygan answers Azuki's question as he heads to his destination.

"Spirit magic can only be used by species that have a high affinity with the Spirit. We humans can't handle it."

"You can use an elf, right?

"Elves, now accepted as human companions, were persecuted until 200 years ago as a form of monster. The same goes for Dwarves. They also have a high affinity with earthen spirits and fire spirits, and can handle spiritual magic"

It seems that the fact that humans are able to handle magic is, in itself, very recent from a long history.

The magic developed by man, as a category of effects, is black magic and white magic. It is divided into crest magic and chant magic as categories of activated forms. Until 200 years before these were developed, the only magic humans could use was the divine magic exercised only by some priests.

"The divine magic can only be handled by humans. It is a prayer to God in heaven and draws on the power of miracles. This is because the gods are human gods"

That said, Weigan turns his gaze toward the white horse.

"What?

"The magic of life handled by Unicorn draws on the power of the King of Life, a pillar of the King God. This can be used because the species Unicorn is a direct family member created by the" King of Life ”and the" King of Beasts ”. To the divine magic of man, the principle is close"

On the road, we all listened to Weigan's magic course. For example, the chaotic magic used by Sakuma, Caorco, and Lesser Demons, or what is called dark magic, is also activated with the help of the Demon King.

Both the “King of Life” and the "King of Demons” have been annihilated by the gods during the mythical wars that took place in ancient times. But the families remained on earth, and the vanquished king gods also left the remnants of their power upon the earth.

"So, what about Kyosuke? Kyosuke, you're undead, aren't you? Isn't that the magic of the King of Death?

"The king of death has no remnants of his power left because his flesh is extinguished from this world"

Weigan clearly denied Rin's words.

"The annihilated King God is greatly separated into those who have lost power by being separated from the flesh from the entity of his power, the" King Piece ”, and those who have been annihilated of the flesh itself. Only if the flesh remains somewhere in this world will it be possible to draw its power"

"Heh. Then the king of life and the king of demons, the flesh remains somewhere."

"This new continent is said to be the land where the demon king, who was deprived of a piece of the king in the days of mythical warfare, fled in. That's why straight-line species like Lesser Demons live there. The flesh of the King of Decaying Demons is somewhere in this new continent, and not many adventurers cross here looking for it"

Well, they haven't returned one after all, but, you know, a sobering word, Weigan adds.

Kyosuke, who had heard the words and remained silent until then, had something to worry about.

"If a piece of kings is the source of the power of its doomed kings, is it possible to return it to the flesh?

"... To prevent that from happening, the Wang Piece is strictly controlled in the Imperial Capital"

If there is such a thing as a king's piece returns to the dead flesh, or to the king himself, if I may say so, it means the resurrection of the king God.

King God is the king of the monsters who live in this world. I cannot say enough that he leads his family and again strips the empire and humanity of their fangs, without them. The Empire is concerned about it, and the Adventurer's Guild cooperates in the collection of the King's Piece that has not been found.

"You remind me a lot."

With his arms together, Snow Nose said in a cold voice.

"Talk about Christian demons, that kind of thing"

"I wonder if I will descend to Heavenly Sun..."

The rarely self-assertive courtyard also raised a voice.

Now it's Waygan's turn to tilt his neck.

"What's that?"

"I think we talked about trippers."

Kyosuke took their word for it. When it comes to subcultural knowledge, I am confident. Speak politely along with explanations to white horses, azuki, dog gods, etc. in a decent way.

"In our world, there are some big religions, and one of them spread to the world after about 2,000 years. In the process, they took in the gods of that local religion as“ demons, "that sort of story."

The same story is true of the descent of Heavenly Sun. God comes down from heaven to lay that foundation that governs all over Japan. That's the place if you give a cluttered explanation. Regional luxuries who defy the courtyard have generally been exorcised as monsters, and there are several games and comics that have made the area a story. However, Kyosuke hasn't got his hands on it, as Kokanai was so forbidden to play 18 games that he's been so pushy.

Well, the story of a king god in heaven is certainly the story of a man who laid the foundations of an empire, persecuting the kings of the provinces to conquer the continent, and neither can he recognize it so.

"I'm not sure."

Weigan snapped his neck.

"God is God, and the devil is not the devil?

"... well, that's probably how it would react in a world where God and the devil are real."

This is why I don't feel like fantasy.

As we speak, Kyosuke and the others finally reach an adventurer relay camp with the Lesbons.

That camp that the Adventurers Guild set up was a little something, with walls to prevent monster raids and magic formations available for the junction. Closer to the sea, in front of the desert, with several buildings inside.

"Here we are, Lesbon!

When Kyosuke raised her voice, the gate slowly opened as she gazed.

Kyosuke and the others take Weigan inside. In front of the building, two female adventurers stood as the ship's eye arm adventurer, Lesbon Bulk, and its left and right. The little one is Philhana Grambana, and the big, muscular other is Rain, who finally cured it.

Not enough one. Kyosuke and the others moved their gaze.

"Lesbon, what happened to Wombat?

It was Weigan who opened his mouth first. Lesbon and the others looked surprised that Weigan, who was supposed to be a prisoner, wasn't even tied up, but quickly clouded his expression in his words and waved his wear.

"... right"

"Uh, what's up?

Kyosuke asks Weigan, who seems to have guessed something.

It's Sheaf's wombat that's not here. Around the dog god, I'm going to eat and kill him as soon as I find him, and Kyosuke won't be able to stay in a good mood, so I don't mind if he's not around. I'm a little concerned about this outrageous attitude.

"I would have gone. Karasma said there was something similar to Wombat,"

Weigan said. Kyosuke says back in a flash.

"He won't take a weak girl hostage or break a promise and attack her."

"Maybe..."

Weigan admitted softly, not forcefully.

"Anyway, they don't have Wombat. In a hurry for merit, you must have snuck out. Stupid guy."

Kyosuke tried to indulge in what that "stupid guy" meant, but stopped. I don't care what you think, because only the unpleasant have thoughts. It wasn't much for Kyosuke to be uncomfortable with others.

"Stay, well, Utsugi, let's start the negotiations for a second"

Lesbon laughs bitterly and puts this one to pieces.

"I can't say I drink a lot of demands, but there must be a lot of information I can provide here. For one thing, I want you all to come inside and tell me what's wrong with this one."

"I'm not asking you to apologize from Lesbon."

Kyosuke's voice was still flashy.

The foxes begin to travel to the negotiating table. During that meagre amount of time, Umaru tried to get as much information as possible on the situation.

The Great Fox of Nine Tails was called Your Majesty, and Umaru decided to mimic it as well. Your presence and the foxes are still coming here from the mountain of monsters, as Umaru has guessed, and as representatives of a civilized area unique to the new continent known as Ceria, they are going to negotiate.

Sailia is also their name for the new continent. It is a group of nations mixed with various civilizations and has little to do with the human beings of the old continent. Sometimes it draws in adventurers who come to examine the new continent.

What Umaru thought first was that the seria might not be a civilized area made up by a tripper like ourselves for a moment. but it doesn't come down to certainty.

As far as I can tell, there are also numerous humans in Celia, dawning in the battle against the cults worshipping the demons. In order to concentrate on this battle, in the area of the Serbian civilization, we want non-interference in the battle between the bloodline and the central empire.

"(But this information doesn't seem to have much to do with us)"

Even if Sayria were a civilized area made up of trippers, they are the ones who chose to live in the land. The Umaru people, who are thinking about returning, are not the place to head. Unless you have other classmates flying in that seria, but that doesn't seem to be the case either.

"I see you."

That's what you said, and Umaru saw her point with the foxes.

It was, in a corner of the desert, an entrance to a small dungeon set up so that it could be buried in the sand. Initially, it resembles the "promised cemetery (catacombe)" that the Umaru have transferred. Do the blood families hold these places down beforehand, or do they have the technology to generate these dungeons?

But at the same time, what surprised and threatened Umaru was the appearance of a watchman standing guard at the entrance to that dungeon. Nearly ten metres long, the skeleton of six double-faced arms. “King of the Necromancer." That's not all. At his feet, gazing around was a man-shaped demon, with bat wings, on a goat-like face. When the foxes see the appearance, they turn their hair upside down and reveal their vigilance.

"Stop."

You told the foxes.

"To the family of Dimon, is that a reproduction of the Dead King? It seems true that they have two pieces of the king in their hands."

Such a grunting voice is somewhat abominable.

Reproduction of the Dead King. Wang Piece. These are all the first words I've ever heard. I kind of understand Dimon's family. I've just heard about the evil sects they're hostile to, worshipping demons.

Is King Piece an item or something that allows you to manipulate such monsters freely? So, if there is, as a representative of the Serbian civilized area, we may want to avoid that blood families with pieces of kings join hands with the cult. In other words, the blood clan can negotiate with the king as a shield.

"(If it's such a powerful item, maybe...)"

Don't rush. Umaru restrains himself. Look at the opportunity. The time will surely come.

The King of the Necromancer, and Dimon - let the Lesser Demon pass you in. The foxes and Umaru were also allowed to accompany them. Inside the dungeon, the structure is exactly reminiscent of the promised cemetery, with corpse ghosts (ghouls) and little demons (imps) roaming inside.

I can't see my blood family. And Pawn, wearing black armor. Is the Lord of this dungeon a pawn, or a pawn above? One of the Lesser Demons leads you to the back room.

"- Welcome, Mizukume"

Waiting in the room I reached was a tall man, dressed in a black tuxedo. Check the bright red eyes for canine teeth except from the mouth. Bloodline.

He is not alone. In the corner of the room, there is still a bloodline woman. He wore a black dress with a hint of lace and had a lofty spear in his hand. Your Majesty first showed how easy it was to the narrowness of the entrance to the room, then peeled his teeth at the man with his gaze.

"Don't call Noon that name."

"Shall I call you before, then, imitating others? I'm Glenn from Bishop. This is Knight's sink."

Bishop and Knight. Umaru confirms his appearance and freezes his mind. But do not let it leave you as far as possible, taking care not to let it out on the yawn. Just act like you're one of the ayakasis I've followed her.

If you have a sense of homosexuality here too, you should be deceiving me to some extent.

"You only have one Raven Tengu."

Suggestion, Glenn said wonderfully.

"My superior doesn't trust me. Sort of good. I want to move on."

Saying so, you turn your gaze to one Lesser Demon in the room.

"I don't really feel good about hanging out with these people"

"I see, that's good."

Glenn also laughed small and sat down in a chair provided for the room.

This is the stronghold of blood on this continent. I don't care how you look at it, it's not home. The Kings of Koganei and blood would not be here. Is Spiderzaki or Tentacles still somewhere here? Or would they have taken me to headquarters, not knowing where it is?

Besides, it's Wang Pian. Where the hell is the King Piece?

Make sure to stand up and take a short look inside the room Umaru. As Glenn and your lord tried to begin the conversation, only Knight's sink in the room stared at it with cold eyes.
