Our demon king is coming. (formerly Mayday A Series)
23: Machia, resonant yarn.
Long time no see.
It's Machia.
This is Magic Grocery Midgard.
I was down in the evening and the dress was frizzy. Keep your hair down.
We borrowed Madame Egresa's prepared old magician's robe and changed into it after we wiped our bodies.
Lepis has been lying down a little since she put it on magic medicine water at Madame's suggestion.
He said he didn't need it in person, but it looked like Madame pushed him.
………
Thor was out at the Midgard store with the roof and watching as it rained, sipping a warm, dark coffee prepared by Madame.
I stand quietly behind you because it's something that looks kind of harsh.
"What are you so angry about?"
…………
"I'm not mad," Thor said, not even looking back, after a tingling reaction.
I can't believe you had an entertainer in the middle of an exchange who said something like that.
I held the coffee mug with both hands and when I stood next to him I looked at it sideways.
"Hey, you know what? That robe you're wearing, the one Dr. Medite used to wear."
"Buh."
What was so shocking, Thor, I blew out the coffee.
"Yeah... I don't like anything. Nothing, Sir Medite isn't bad, but something..."
"... Tor got ten more frigid odors..."
Like the narration of the game, say it pale.
Well, I don't know if Tor's gonna look weird or not. It feels odd that he's wearing these loose robes.
Dr. Medite really flicks behind my back......
"Do you care what Lepis said? Or about the Demons?
"... both"
Thor makes coffee, looking somewhere far away.
It's where the roof is, but it feels a little good that the fine mist gets here.
"You, you knew the land of the demons I made. Closed to snow and ice, that country..."
"Yeah, was it the ideal home of the Demons" Eyesmore?
"I don't know if it was the ideal place. I created the Fortress of Magic to give my country to a weak demon who had no place to be."
"... you did. That country is an ideal place. Normally, I can't reach it... because it was your“ Demonic Fortress Nation. "
"In those days, the Demons were oppressed as being harmful to humans. Sure, there were demons who ate humans, and those guys were fierce. But... I thought they'd be wiped out."
"Is that why you wanted to rule and give the country?
"... because I was similar."
The history of the battle between man and the devil was already long told at the time.
The times when magic was actively used as a part of life and everyone believed in its potential. There are also many adventurers and pioneers, and I feel that those who hunt demons were being seen as heroes. In the tide of saying those with strong magic should crusade the Demon Nation, the Black Demon King ruled the Demon Nation while being a man.
"But well, I guess that country also disappeared after I died because I heard it was completely crusaded by the" Blue General ”a thousand years ago"
"But you didn't die making such a big space all the time. Wasn't that an awesome risk?
"Until I gave you space. From there, I let the demons do their job. I built the enclosure."
"I don't surround you..."
"But it was a non-intrusive setting, and you're the only one who came in normally. I was surprised then..."
I still remember.
In the woods all the way back on the northern continent, when I found a strong wall of magic, gave a little order, twisted and broke in.
When I found the man with the black cape, I thought I'd do it.
"But, well... the magic I made for the Demon Clan is now magic to protect myself from the Demon Clan. That's ironic."
"... after all, those guys, you were still alive"
………
Apparently it was different to say that the Demons were completely crusaded. You think it's now under the full surveillance of the Hermédes Federation and has been improved to a body that cannot live without human blood and meat? The ability to simulate to humans is also something we did not have 2,000 years before we lived. There were demons of human form, but they could never be completely human.
What an ironic story because it is now the story of the Federation of Hermédes and it is horribly hated by Twilight, the descendant of the Black Demon King who was once king. Lepis didn't tell us the details, but he hated the Demons, and he seemed afraid of them somewhere.
"That's a nasty story. None of this..."
………
Thor knows that the Twilight clan is taking risks using the Demonic Fortress, and that the Demon clan still exists.
Ask him for his expression. As usual, it's rare.
"Hmm. It's hard for you and Ulysses to have all sorts of glitches in their previous lives."
"It's like you don't have it."
"Unfortunately. I don't have a country to miss."
"But you, you must have been given a lot by the King of the West, right?
"You know, I just wanted to make all kinds of gifts out of fear of me. An offering. An offering. I was just in the mood to get the birth prince named after me. You once gave me a beautiful human daughter... I wonder if you really thought I'd drink my daughter's blood."
………
Truth be told, this is where the anecdote about changing to wear a beautiful daughter leads.
My daughter, whom the kingdom sent to me, was a basic heretic, a sinner, or one who would one day be executed.
That's why I let her get away with it. I was doing it halfway through the play, leaving some kind of chance to go back to normal with a "good guy's kiss". I don't know if any of my daughters could have gone back to being human.
"Ah..."
The momentum of the evening slowed and turned into fine, paralysed rain. Light starts to sting from the clouds, resulting in all sorts of washed away, clear air.
"Is it time for Perselis to wake up..."
Second, I felt that, and it was when I looked up at the sky.
Docun......
For a moment, I was struck by such a shock that my whole body's magic trembled at once.
Not only me, but Tor seems to have been, and we look at each other with a surprise look.
"Yes, now..."
"Did you feel that, too? It's like magic rushed all over your body at once..."
"Yep..."
Suppressing the chest of the robe, I looked in the direction in which that wave of shocks came.
Get out of the store to the middle of the mall road while it still falls apart and fine rain.
"… the Patriarchate…? No, the Magic Instruction Institute?
It's hard to see from here. It looked like that direction. Even though the world is as unaffected as ever, only me and Thor feel the shock of that magic and still distract us.
Ugly, it looked like a litany of light was rising from a half-way shaped demonic guided wave hitch in the building at a demonic guided research institute.
"Maybe it's a magic circuit system?
"... what do you mean?
"Lili said. Today, during the Shikoku Conference, he asked me to do a small commissioning of the magic circuit system. But that should still only be laid on some of the research institutes. I don't think we're supposed to be affected..."
"But..."
I wonder what. This unspoken feeling.
It feels restless to say that everything about you is as if someone is looking at you.
"... Tor..."
I grabbed the end of Thor's clothes. At that moment, you can see me and his magic resonated as if the current had flowed.
Red and black magic, as if it were a single long thread, intertwined and bound, and creating new colors.
I can see it overlapping. The sound of that heartbeat.
To make sure of that, Tor and I put our hands together.
"Hey, what's this feeling..."
"Magic is connected...?
We stared at each other and were confused by this indescribable feeling.
But as we knew each other's senses were in our hands, we got more and more embarrassed and intentionally distance ourselves when we let go of Ba and Ba.
"What is this..."
"And a new sensation."
Thor lays his hands on the wall and I kneel and calm my heart.
For what has never happened before, it will lighten up.
It was then. Until now, there was nothing but red and black magic. I felt a soft green magic in the image of that magic thread.
Me and Thor immediately guessed what it was.
It was from the deepest room of Midgard that the magic reached us as it spreads with a wrinkle.
"... Perselis...?
We entered the store and headed to the sleeping room of Perselis, as we were invited by its magic.
The thrill in my earlier illuminated chest turned into a hunch thrill.
"... Perselis!!
I'm sure she woke up.
For some reason. Yes, I knew. We share magic now.
Something's connected.
…………
Perselis seemed to be in some bright white, pale light.
The look seemed like a newborn unknown baby, and also seemed to confirm the world with eyes that knew everything.
She looked at us slowly, and smiled small enough to zero out a lot of memories and emotions that could not be said in a word.
"... yes. You were the Red Witch and the Black Demon King..."
…………
"I finally understand... why you asked for each other..."
moment, the feeling that reached our hearts.
It's a calm but endlessly strong will that she knew everything and accepted it.
The resentment, the hatred, the joy, the pity, they just embrace all their memories. To that little body.
I got tears unexpectedly.
Some of her memories must have been my presence. There can't be any.
You can't possibly not hate it.
But I was terribly surprised that I couldn't feel the scales of that emotion from her, but I felt that I had been made aware of the lofty presence of the Green Witch to feel mercy and love for all things from the magic of this child, even though I remembered my memory and nothing changed.
I was terribly impressed with the matter and my tears spilled.
Perselis gets off the sleeping table and leaves the store.
And, staring at the fast-flowing, glowing orange clouds, I was hard at the world in those big eyes.
