"This is..."

I can clearly see my own voice plunging into tension. At this time, it was rightly the wars that dominated Kyosuke Akagi's mind.

The forest is burning, the land is wandering, and the sparks are rolling brilliantly there. Smoke-covered skies trap heat and rotten light on the ground, leaving no trace of life around them. Purgatory that appeared in the world. Kyosuke slowly crosses over it with her boot-covered feet.

The furnace core, which stored a considerable amount of energy, could be bounced, and the corner of the kingdom of Verneus turned into scorched earth.

Fever is not the only thing that annoys the land. A significant amount of poison that destroys the cells of the organism is sprayed simultaneously.

There are only a few things that can go on in this space. Kyosuke was physically distressed that the heat resistance formula applied to her own bones was screaming. The outside temperature is already close to a few hundred degrees. Kyosuke's body will be the next one to wipe out the charcoal if the procedure is burned out.

At that risk. But Kyosuke had to move on through this hell.

It was Kyosuke herself who pulled the trigger for this catastrophe. But I also don't want things to be resolved just because of a sense of responsibility.

As Kyosuke progresses, the fever of pregnancy in the atmosphere increases acceleratively. It was also evidence of the proximity of the centre of scorched earth. Eventually even the ground evaporates and heat distorts the atmosphere and vision. In its center, there was a black armor that lay on one knee, still holding the prototype.

Kyosuke, stop.

The armor is partly bounced and melted. There was a mass of flames burning in it. This is it. The heart of this hell. It is a flame of calamity that burns the earth, scorches heaven, and cast-melts every life.

"Eung..."

Kyosuke shrugged.

The flames only burn. I did not reply in any way.

"Eung, let's go home. I'm sorry I haven't been around for so long."

………

"For the most part, you... I'm not a clever guy like that. Just like me. You tried to do well on your own, there's no way you could. This is the result."

………

"Hey, Eung..."

How the hell did this happen in the first place?

The story started about two weeks ago.

◆ ◇ ◆ ◇ ◆ ◇ ◆

"This is it...! Hot Springs Inn......!?

I tried to open my eyes in amazement, but I had no eyes in the first place.

What Kyosuke saw when they reached the kingdom of Verneus was a giant stone building that swept behind the mountains. The walls were intertwined with moss and trees that made you think they were thousands of years old, which is more like a kind of dungeon than an inn.

Kyosuke is not the only one who is flattered. Rin and the Dog God were surprised, of course, and the Goubayashi and the others were flashing.

"Uh yeah. It looks like it's in season, but it hasn't been built for about a month."

Sugiura waves once and for all and says:

"What can you do to get here in a month?

"I can show you around. It was mostly Haruo-kun and the garden."

The garden defies his chest a little proudly, but the original tail was still Ibiki in the coffin.

Anything, Sugiura and the others, who discovered Ryuzaki's ad, apparently proceeded with fortification work to make this inn their base for the time being. All the buildings that were made of wood were stoned, made stronger with the roots of plants, and even more robust with the guardian's numbered tomatoes. In fact, there is no sign that this building was broken into or vandalized by anyone, even while Sugiura and the others were away.

In addition to the garden's home vegetable garden, there is a fish farm prepared for fish dwellings, and he said he has little to worry about clothing and living. Since mushroom kasas are also added here, it could be said that infrastructure development is increasingly perfect. The workforce that was not enough is also manned by the addition of Goubayashi, Okumura, etc.

Sure, it's going to be a perfect place to be the base for the moment.

"Look, guys, don't get confused. Carrying luggage, I'll do it."

"Oh, wow."

Try to be pulled by Sugiura's words and go inside the Fortress Inn with them. I thought it was dim inside, and the tomatoes on the ceiling were glowing and replacing the bulbs. Sometimes I don't think tomatoes are a little too convenient.

The luggage to be transported is also mainly items and seasonings bought under the Adventurer's Autonomy. Most of them take it to the front of Sugiura's kitchen, otherwise to the warehouse.

Rooms are small but more than 50, and all classmates can afford one room at a time. In other words, each student is now able to have a private room. This was well received by many of the faces on this occasion.

Anyway, I've never been assigned one room at a time since I moved into this world. In the first dungeon it was a miscellaneous fish sleep, and the heavy patrol school used one room for multiple people. More importantly, the hotel was also in the same room because the transfer was in the middle of a school trip.

Of course, there's nothing like luggage left in my room, but it's actually been nearly six months since I've gotten a private room. Some of my classmates were starting to talk about room splitting.

"Utsurugi, where are you going? Whose room is next to good or something?

"Stay close to Rin."

"Hmm...... Don't tell me..."

With the adorable noisy students aside in the lobby, Kyosuke lowered her hips in a stone chair and spread the map.

"A map of the continent."

Heavy bass that sounds behind you. It's the voice of a goose palm.

"Oh."

Kyosuke nods.

Now they are in the kingdom of Verneus, which protrudes into the southeast of the continent. This peninsula, sandwiched between the north and south by a volcanic belt, is a land rich in nature as well. For one thing, Kyosuke and the others did not have to be raided by empires or blood tribes until they came here.

From now on, we have to stay back in this stronghold and prepare for the battle. So.

First of all, it's a fire field.

Kyosuke's mood is represented by Goubayashi.

"I know Eung headed this way. First, we have to find out where he is."

Ei Furano's behavior is technically difficult to say about betrayal. He searched for the best option, and as a result, he was on the Imperial side. Empires would be a big country in this world, and if they were under their shelter, they'd find a way back to the original world. I might even get protection from my blood clan. With that in mind, I can never even say I'm wrong.

However, Kyosuke can't really be trusted about an empire that goes out by hard means without asking for this opinion. As a result, the abduction took place in the same way, and Umaru and your hand wash were taken. Even Wang Pian was taken away.

Eung and I need to talk again. On top of that, I'll pull him back to this side if I can.

"I'm going to respect your opinion, Utsugi."

Goubayashi kept his arms together and continued his words behind his back.

"Yeah?"

"Selling fights on all sides is not a good idea. You don't really know how to fight, do you?

"That's a familiar way of putting it."

"Huh."

Ouga, with his gigantic body nearly three meters, makes him laugh small.

"I mean, I wasn't as good a student as I said."

Father Hao Lin is the son of the temple. In high school, he belonged to the fist law department.

Since the human age, he has also been a man of great body and deep strength of sculpture, with great impact. No way, he wouldn't have been such a bad student that he was really dawning into a fight, but it's certain that when he was always in action with Ryuzaki, he had a "staring" part.

"Goubayashi is right fat. Empire and blood clan, turning both against enemies is risky fat"

This is the true former defect, Okumura Akira's words.

"Just, well, in my opinion, I think it's better to be somewhat vain than to be weak-hearted and attached, fat guy"

With his index finger up, Okumura continued.

"It's a fact fat people crushed one of their blood families Luke. but now is just not a good time for a blood clan, fat guy."

"You mean the bloodline can't just deal with us?

"Yes fat. Talking about the Utsurugi, the mighty of the bloodline and the mighty of the empire are already clashing, fat? You can't sell fights in all respects because the blood side is the same, fat guy."

Eung, Kokanai and I just meshed together, that one thing. That was also a painful development to deprive both forces of the majority of their companions, but at the same time an incident in which the conflicting structure of the empire and blood, which had been sedentary, had emerged once again.

That said, it is still the Empire who is more powerful in the forces. The bloodline must be vigilant in the movement of the Empire, while expanding its power of war.

"I won't imitate the wild dogs that bite me again, fat guy."

"I see. Are we aiming at this one after we've cemented the ground somewhat,"

Goubayashi is also nodding to Okumura's opinion.

"Then the fat guy wonders what the bloodline does to cement the ground..."

"You're worried about Red Well."

When Kyosuke shrugged, Okumura nodded quietly.

The whereabouts of Akai Tomihika are still unknown. She's not the only one, there are still many students who don't know where they are.

There is no denying the possibility of reaching out to other students as they consolidate their power. At present, there is Koganei on the blood side, and he says' I won't let my classmates get their hands on me ', but that would be just the exception. Queen Hongjing can be a trump card with the strongest class strength, even with simple combat power, and a joker connotation for Kyosuke's two years and four groups of students.

"Is it possible that the blood clan will explore the location of Red Well..."

"When that happens, you can't leave too many bloodlines alone."

"Oh. We have to keep an eye on them, too."

Exactly, the opinions of two militants are helpful. Future policies seem to be gradually clearing up.

"With that said, there was another defect."

Goubayashi looks into the corner of the lobby with his arms together. There, there was a dog kamikaze dressed in a worn cloak. Did you notice the gaze, the dog god said in a galloping voice as badly as he could: Ah? 'and returns it.

Ever since she lost her sailor clothes on the New World, she has little to wear. Mostly he looks like a wolf or he wears a worn cloak. I got used to it for my eyes.

"No, I want to know what the dog god has to say."

"I don't know what Atashi would say."

Like throwing up, the dog god responds.

"Nan. I generally agree with what the fat guy said there. The blood clan crushed him with this hand. Now, well, I guess I don't even have to stick around."

"That's a lot cooler."

"I've grown attached to the herd."

That's all I said, the dog god slept on the floor about as he twisted into his cape. Maybe it's lit.

"First of all, the blood family leaves it in principle... but still gathers information, do you feel?"

Kyosuke muttered as she looked at the map again.

"If they're trying to locate Red Well, we need to get ahead of them."

"When you do, you'll have things to do with your blood... Behind you is unstable."

"That's the fat guy who's gonna be like each other, but the fat guys want to stabilize the one behind (Teikoko) early"

Unlike the blood clan, the empire is not subject to annihilation. There's room for negotiation.

That in itself is a pissing thing, but you should make a good compromise with them.

But in order to do so, we need to be on an equal footing. Specifically, with Ein back on this side, we have to show him that he is in a position to negotiate reciprocally with the other side.

This is a total of 40 people where they all gathered. The opponent is the largest great empire in this world.

To be honest, minutes are bad. But we need to be ready for that more than hostile.

"Forty people dealing with one country is a big story."

"Forty-one, to be exact."

Kyosuke looked up at the ceiling and said.

"If you want to include the eagle tail, it's 42."

"I've never met that princess."

Is that what you said? Kyosuke thought, digging up memories that were already months old.

"Then I remembered one"

"What fat man?

"We were demon kings."

"Uh..."

Goubayashi and Okumura put their arms together as they lined up.

"That said, we talked about that, fat guy..."

"I don't know anymore that I would really imitate turning a nation against its enemies..."

Where is the demon king who gave the signal to gather? During his absence, he must defend the new Demon King's Castle. That, as skeletal staff.

"First of all, you've decided on a policy..."

Kyosuke said as she circled the map.

Apparently, the room splitting that the other students were discussing in an adorable way is also gradually being decided. Kyosuke spoke to them and decided to set up a meeting place to discuss future activities once again.

"Well, that's why"

Sitting at the front or sitting in sports. Kyosuke coughed up before the classmates waiting in a thoughtful manner.

The place remains in the lobby as before. but Kyosuke is not very used to doing MC progression in front of large numbers like this. I tried to ask the Goubayashi first, but they made me feel like I was joking about 'I'm Ryuzaki's deputy, not your early days'. I wouldn't be serious. I'm just enjoying watching Kyosuke, who had to blow a leader style. He is.

Okumura also said, 'Yummy is not the kind of fat guy who stands in the front,' and backed off. I heard Kenzaki say, "What, are you a wrapper? I can do it, 'he interrupted,' but politely declined because this one is anxious.

So next to Kyosuke is Rin. The usual.

"As we talked about a brief policy for the future. Watch out for the movements of the blood clan, while for the time being dealing with the empire"

"Among other things, the top priority is the rescue of classmates, beginning with Furano-kun. Negotiate after that, right?"

"Oh, the“ apparent reason ”that the Empire is trying to capture us is to stop the bloodline from expanding its power. At least in that regard, there is room for negotiation"

Problem is, if there was a "backwards reason” here. For example, do you want to use a rare human demon as a research material? If those purposes are in the empire, the story gets pretty twisted.

However, the actions that Kyosuke and the others can take are limited. More importantly, the option of abandoning your classmates is not here.

"So. The question is, how do we gather information, what..."

When Kyosuke said so, it was Sugiura who raised his hand first.

"I think we can request some cooperation from the Adventurers Association. I'm in regular contact with your mom."

"Ooh. You're Giant Mama, the Lion Roar Star of the Five Divine Stars.

"Because your mom seems to know Jane Doe... Even if you can't expect it to be a direct force, it's a lot different just because you're behind it."

The Five Divine Star is the owner of a personal battle comparable to the Luke class of the blood family, or the Empire's Emperor's Watch Board Alliance (Dial Knights). That's the only thing I appreciate about them being on my side.

"Me too, expanding my plant network to hear a lot about it."

"That goes for me, too. Let's build a network of spreading mycelium and expand the range of information we can gather."

Hanaya and Mushroom Kasas were once members of the information-gathering team when searching for the Dog God in Arbadumba.

Powered by his abilities, his search also seemed to have expanded remarkably.

What else came out as a proposal for gathering information is that Monkey Way, which has been able to manipulate sounds and vibrations, collects a wide range of sounds. Brother Fish Sumitomo used sea creatures to investigate. When used in conjunction with a network network built of flower gardens and mushroom kasas, it was likely to be able to grasp a considerable range of information.

"Then more than one member is the intelligence-gathering team. Other members are…"

Kyosuke continues while taking notes on the paper.

"Combat training."

"" "" Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. - Huh!?

With the exception of some students, booming occurs simultaneously. Kyosuke made a fist and slapped her desk.

"Er not! Together we finally picked up Luke's win! We're going to have to deal with ten enemies on the same level as I do! We have to empower each and every one of them!

"Utsurugi...... I, uh, make a gohan for everyone, contact the Adventurers Association... I have to..."

"That's tough, Sugiura...... But everyone else has to clean up and stuff."

"Ghosts! Demons! Dashigala!!"

"I'd be a ghost and a dashigala if I were to go home for all of us!

Pull out the burning sword (Heatweever) from Dimension Case, and Kyosuke slaps Pasin and the floor.

"Kyosuke...... Totally annoying..."

Rin shrugged, showing him how to wipe his tears.

"Uh, and to expand our power, the demons we can have are scouting from one end to the other! Rin! Read me the listed monsters!

"Yes! Check Skeleton, Oak, Ouga, Moaning Desert on“ Evil Spirit Wetlands ”, Mummy, Durahan on" Warriors' Tomb ”!

"Something's just undead..."

"I have a face that I can scout because we're biased that way now..."

Other than this, they can confirm the appearance of Arlaune and Matango from the “Hananarkan Plains” to the "Forest of Life”.

First of all, it will be a top priority for the individual to become strong, but we will need to head out to these lands and draw the demons into our company. It takes a thorough "offensive attitude” to get there. With half-breed power, neither blood nor empire can be fought against.

"Well said, Utsugi!

No neck The wind discipline commissioner suddenly stood up and shouted.

"Workouts to get stronger, replenishment, I'm in big favor. That's all I can do!

"I hope so, Kenzaki."

"Leave it to me! I'll brush your sword's arms! Because of this, the adventurer's products need to be improved to the extent that they don't rot!

With that said, it was. Kyosuke is not good at handling swords at all. I just wanted to polish this one so that I could fight it to some extent even in isolation from Rin.

but, well, there are still few classmates as motivated as Kenzaki. Everyone was dissatisfied with the boo-boo, but still, I somehow showed Kyosuke where to obey his words. As Kyosuke put it, it is true that it is difficult to cross with empires and blood tribes as it is. And, well, I don't know, they seemed to acknowledge Kyosuke as an extraordinary leader.

Now, Kyosuke, who declared that he would be both a ghost and a dashigala, just today he did not conduct combat training, but made it a day of rest. To tell you the truth, Kyosuke really wants to be spared some tough combat training.

But when I think about the future, I can't even say such a thing. At least as a rest to feed your English spirit this day, you will have to seriously encourage your workouts starting tomorrow.

Ahead, Kyosuke and the others still don't know what reunion is waiting for them.
