Epilogue (5) Five Heroes
A village in the foothills of the Keith Glen Commonwealth
Spring is late when it comes to the mountains.
Still, you can feel the warmth of the day —— the bar was packed with villagers.
The mountain roads will also be accessible, and trade with the city will resume in earnest, so the tavern is releasing ingredients that are likely to be bad.
The villagers will drink on the basis of the cash income they will get in the future.
It's like a kind of ritual just before spring starts.
"--Hey, did you hear that?"
"Oh? Oh, that Ted dumb song, right? I've been told so many times this winter."
No.
"But no matter how many times I hear it, I'll laugh."
It's not like that.
"... what's the difference, Toby?"
I drank two glasses of wine in the jock and was already drunk, but I finally noticed that Toby was usually different.
Toby hides his voice.
"... you were here yesterday, right?" The peddlers from the city. "
"Ah, ahh... you're the one who confirmed the opening of the mountain road. I was a different person."
"I heard the village chief talking to him." I thought there were other people besides me who knew about it, so I was listening to you today... but it seems that the village chief will settle down. "
"Hey, what is it?" Do you have such a secret? "
…………
"Don't waste your time, Toby."
"... if I know, I'll have you bite one too, Marks"
"I don't mind that." You're making a fortune, aren't you? "
Toby nodded with a strange face.
"... we haven't been in the mountains in the last five years." Isn't that right? "
"Oh, yeah. Butterflies were flying like big fucking creatures." When I took that starch, all five of my friends died..... "
"Since then, the mountain behind the ridge... the mountains following the ridge must not be crossed."
That's a shame. Sure enough, in the back of the mountains, you can pick black mushrooms that sell as expensive as assholes in the city... but they're still life-threatening.
"There it is. It's a black mushroom."
"What are you talking about? Just tell me."
"... the pedestrians say that the monster butterfly... seems to have a name like 'Dazzle Butterfly'."
"Dazz... what?"
The monster butterfly is gone.
"Hah!?"
The villagers looked at us as Marks levitated his hips.
"Hey, hey, Marks, I'm so surprised." Everyone knows you were sleeping and pissing till you were 10. "
When Toby hurriedly deceived them, the villagers returned to their stories, saying, "Well, they're talking about pissing."
”... so don't make a sound, you idiot”
"I-I 'm sorry... but I haven't slept or pissed until I was 10 years old."
"I don't care about that. The problem is that the village chief who heard that story is always settling in."
"Huh? Why didn't the village chief say anything?"
It's settled. You'll have a monopoly on black mushrooms.
As expected, Marks didn't speak up this time either.
"...... I can hear the rustle when travel to and from the city resumes." Before I do that, I'm going to pick as many as I can. "
"No, no, but that's not true..."
"Five years, huh? Five years since that monster butterfly showed up? In the meantime, it was an untouched mountain... I don't know how many black mushrooms there are. If I were the village chief, I would definitely have it all to myself."
Gokuri, and Marks swallowed the Tsuba.
"What do you say, Marks. Want a ride? I'm going to pick it tomorrow morning alone."
"... I'll do it."
"Okay, that's settled." Of course, if there's a monster butterfly, we'll escape. "
Of course.
They slammed the jock into each other and drank the wine.
It tasted like a victory.
"Buhaha.... no, Toby. What happened to the monster butterfly? It doesn't mean you defeated it, does it?"
"Yeah, I guess so. Everything seems to have been chased away by the adventurers."
Adventurers, huh? The Knights?
"The Knights will move." Behind the mountains like this
That's right, too.
The adventurer said that the pedestrian was happy, but he was very famous.
Toby said.
[Five Heroes], what do you call it?
"... hero? Aren't you exaggerating?"
"That's right. --Hey, don't drink too much. Tomorrow morning, I like it."
"I know."
The two laughed at each other and hit the jock.
Whether or not these two will acquire a tremendous amount of wealth —— the next morning, Marks went to the rendezvous point, and the villagers showed up with mushroom picking gear.
Even in such a noisy tavern, Toby's story was heard at other tables.
Dragon Man and Beastman City
Of course, the appearance of monsters was not the only effect of the unification of the two worlds.
A remote, beastly town.
Next to it, a city of dragons suddenly appeared.
"Why are you guys sideways!"
"Ah? Shut up, you lizards!"
The Dragon Man and the Beastman are fighting around the city.
Both of them had upper backs and muscles.
It was impossible to suddenly "get along" with two races that lived in different looks, different values and different worlds —— these kinds of fights were everyday tea and rice.
"It's another fight..."
"Please don't do this."
Still, the top of the two races chose a coordinated route, rather than being in front of a monster threat.
That was why the security forces had a policy of mixing both dragons and beasts.
But-- five years since coexistence began.
The monster threat was getting a little farther, but the fighting was increasing all over the city.
"You guys, stop fighting."
"That's right, I'll sew. Should I be friendly?"
When the security forces called out to them, they said,
"I can't keep silent!" Even though we finally got here at the start of the night shift! "
I don't know. It's the 20th consecutive day.
Two sparkling bees and a gaze.
"... you're a pain in the ass. Go with me."
"That's good." I mean, it's a bath (...)? "
Yes, they were in front of a public bath.
"When the Beastman enters, his hair falls out and sews!"
The lizards can't stand in the water!
Incompatible values clash with each other.
"... you guys"
”... slurpy?”
In the middle of the 40th Round, the security forces who had made the second full breakthrough narrowed their eyes.
To put it in black, the security forces are Dantoz.
As expected, the two men who had been fighting noticed the sign.
"...... this means getting in the bath together, right? What are you, a lizard?"
"... oh, that's so slimy, when I was a dog"
The two of them tried to reach an agreement.
Come on, come on, come on, come on, come on.
When the Dragon Man Old Man group came, they quickly went inside.
Ah, motherfuckers!
"Elder! Don't pull it out!"
After chasing the Dragon Man Elders, both the Beast Man and the Dragon Man went into the bath.
"--fee"
Kimidrigorn exhaled heavily in the hot boiler room.
Many magic items are in operation, pumping up water, boiling it, and supplying it to the public baths.
It was Kimidrigorn's job to manage these magic items.
"There is no problem with operation, but there are many facilities that should be replaced due to aging..."
Still, it was rewarding.
The culture of baths is not only in the minds of dragons, but also in the minds of beasts.
Some people hated beasts.
There are many problems with the coordinated route between the two races, but it's the bath that makes it work -- yes, Kimidrigorn is proud.
"Boss, it's time for dinner."
That's right.
"All right, let's sew."
I also had two of the Beastmen's men.
They were not hostile to Kimidrigorn because he was a dragon man, but were seriously studying magical items.
"... where is Rage now?"
I haven't seen a boy named Rage who created this bath with dynamic magic in a while.
But he must be active everywhere.
There was enough trust in Kimidrigorn to think so.
World Conference of Lake Brunstock Countries
Every two years, heads of state from around the world gather in the Lake Brunstock countries, and this is the third time the World Conference has been held.
The first time was when we did World Unity.
The second time was when countries were working together to overcome the turmoil after the "world union".
And for the third time —— everyone knew that this meeting was "rough."
"Your Royal Highness, I'm sorry to trouble you."
This is Lord Daimon.
In the wide hallway of the magnificent cathedral, an elderly man already meets a prince.
However, he is still at the forefront of Tequipaki's work, the energetic prince of King Geffelt.
The other one was a big enough man to look up, and he was the Great Marshal Friedrich-Bergher of the Knightly Kingdom of Light, who was clearly more suited to the battlefield than the conference room.
Friedrich was in charge of all the Knight of Light's forces.
The Knight King was at the top, so it was different.
“There's still time before the meeting starts. How about that, just for a minute?"
“Thank you for the good suggestion. Let's sit down.”
Entering the reception room, the old man and the elderly sat in the chair in a strange combination.
There are about 30 people in each group, so the population density of the spacious reception room quickly rises.
"... I guess I can say that the monster threat is almost gone." My Federation is fairly calm. How about your country? "
"Yes, we can say that we are back before the 'union of the worlds'. However, I still can't loosen up the hand of the monster sweeper."
”Hmm... I don't have any gifted pearls for future generations.”
Friedrich nodded heavily to the words of the prince.
The knights and adventurers who are currently fighting are good. Because they are gaining power through their talented pearls.
But the children that will be born will not have it.
Of course, I wanted to reduce as many monsters as I could.
"I heard that, Your Royal Highness the Prince." like pulling out a tech gift from the Leviathan Empire. "
"As expected, you are a neighbor of the Empire." You have ears. "
One of the paths chosen by the Geffelt Kingdom for the survival of its "next generation" was "armament by magic tools".
It was the Leviticus Empire that I was studying.
The other day, the deal was to make a direct deal with them and have them supply the technology.
I heard that His Royal Highness the Crown Prince has great skills.
"Hahaha, did Lord Friedrich come to say such a flattery?" It's all my father's business. "
How is His Majesty Geffelt?
“I'm fine, I'm probably going to die first.”
Friedrich did not know how to react to the brightly laughing prince.
Are you kidding me or are you serious?
Seeing such a troubled Friedrich, the Prince laughs more and more.
"... oh, everyone, you're here."
I heard a shivering voice.
Happily, the valets filled the room cleared the way for the person.
"Oh, this is..."
"It's shabby, Your Highness."
Prince Wang, even the marshal, has nothing to do with her.
A girl standing at the top of the church —— the Pope entered the room, and they stood and greeted each other.
I heard some funny laughter.
"No, what? I was saying something bad about my father. That's right, Marshal."
"Have fun..."
Friedrich, who was not good at this kind of interaction, smiled bitterly.
When the Pope also sits in the chair, the three of them resume their conversation.
"Did you hear that, Saint?" About the "Five Heroes"
“Yes, there will be no day when I won't listen to them. How active can you be? The liberation of a city occupied by undead monsters, the early resolution of infectious diseases, and the mediation of regional conflicts... you can hardly be called an adventurer.”
"No, but thanks to them, my Federation is in good hands." Especially when it comes to giant species, it was troublesome because the movement of the Five Heroes drove the giant species away from the unexplored land of the Canyons. "
Do you want to investigate the "Canyon" in the unexplored land now?
"It seems so. However, I suspect that I will stay in the Holy Kingdom of Kulvahn for a while..."
Friedrich and the Pope then instantly shook their heads to the side.
"I don't think they're involved in politics."
"Yes, I agree with Master Friedrich." I didn't think he was like that. "
Hmmm. You both often acted together with the Five Heroes, so you think so?
The prince said with a little envy.
Five heroes -- involved in the "union of the world" and played a central role in resolving the chaos caused by the goddess afterwards.
Friedrich had been associated with the five heroes before, and the Pope was saved by the five heroes because he was dependent on the goddess.
The Kingdom of Geffelt is one of the most important powers on the continent, but it has not been able to play a particularly prominent role in these turmoil.
I thought that if it was at least a connection with the five heroes... but I didn't think that it would be very effective in adventurer style (...).
"However, the central figure of the five heroes, the 'Mithril Brave', will marry the daughter of the nobility of the Holy Kingdom? After all, I wonder if I will do anything close to the Holy Kingdom in the future.”
"If that's what you're talking about, 'Mithril Saints' belongs to the church."
"I definitely wanted to welcome [Mithril Shield] to my country as a knight..."
"Either way, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince." They will continue to act as a balancer, independent of the minds of the nations. in a position like a scale..... "
"I wish..." That's the name of the party, isn't it? Some kind of "balance of heaven and silver" or something. "
That's wrong, but the Pope and Friedrich laughed and approved.
Canyon Frontline in Undeveloped Land
The kingdom of the kingdom of Kulvahn is large, and so is the area bordering the undeveloped land of the Canyon.
Therefore, many monsters still plagued the reclaimed villages of the Holy Kingdom.
Zh... zh... zh... zh... zh...
When there is a sound on the ground, the poor countryside shakes and the sand falls from the roof.
Children are clinging to their mothers to fight fear.
"Oh, Mom, don't you have to run away?" If you run now, you can run away. "
"It's okay. Believe your father or the village chief..."
The mother also had a blue face, but she was desperate to tell the children.
I just dumped the village and ran away, but there is no way to go.
I bet to reclaim this land.
Many people in the countryside were in the same position.
But the heavy footsteps are getting closer and closer.
Finally, one of the children began to cry ——
You're here!
The door was opened and it was the father with the old leather armor and the rusty spear that jumped in.
The children rushed to him with the peace of mind that his father had returned.
"O, Father, you're here... the adventurer who asked you to come to the city!?"
That's right! This will help!
"But even the usual adventurer might not be able to do anything..."
"An unusual adventurer has arrived!" Everyone's going to pick you up! "
When my family left with my father, there were crowds at the entrance of the village.
"Those people...?"
The mother bends her neck inwardly.
There were only five of them.
There were more than three monsters approaching this village.
Moreover, three of them are women, one of whom is only as tall as his eldest son.
"--Please, please, everyone. You're the only one I can count on.”
"--I know, I know. It's okay, Chief."
A sloppy tall young man is talking to the village chief.
After all, my mother thought it strange.
When it came to adventurers, it was generally recognized that they were rough people.
Even so, the young man seems kind, and his hips are soft towards the village chief.
The black hair and black eyes that I've never seen before are eye-catching, but there must have been a superstition that "black hair and black eyes are calamities".
"--Let's go, Mr. Dantes."
"--Oh"
But when the big man, called Dantes, pulled the big shield out of his cloak —— his mother was surprised.
What a beautiful silver color.
It is a glimmer of light.
For the first time in my life, I saw it, but I thought it might be called "heavenly silver (mythril)".
Haha, all the other members were wearing heavenly silver gear.
The staff of heaven and silver, and the protector of heaven and silver, and the wand of heaven and silver.
The weak-minded young man is equipped with a double swinging dagger at his waist.
It is also made of heavenly silver.
Well then, I'll go.
The young man said in a light tone, but shortly thereafter —— it had changed into a serious and extreme gesture.
The air drifts with pins and strangles that break when touched, and they head to the reclaimed land behind the village --.
"Sincerely, [Balance of Silver]......"
The village chief lowered his head as he seemed to be lying flat on the spot.
And the villagers all bowed their heads in the same way.
They'll take care of it.
And there was certainly a force that made me feel.
When the Canyon, an unexplored land, contacted me to let the monsters flood out, I didn't hesitate to take on the crusade —— it might have been too soon.
Yes, this is quite a mess.
'Cause,
"...... Rage, are you sure you're okay?"
As you leave the countryside and head to the reclaimed lands, Dantes asks you.
"It's okay, I think it's okay..."
"Really? I mean, tomorrow, right?" your wedding is.... "
Exactly.
My wedding-- the wedding between Eva and me is tomorrow.
Four years have passed since I confessed to Eva and made the promise of "four years from now".
In the meantime, our "Silver Balance" is dizzyingly active —— "Souvenir" received from the adventurer guild master, Giorgio, and it is also called the "Silver Balance" because it was operated with the equipment made of heavenly silver. It is also called the wrong party name.
That's why I've always been so busy correcting "it's a mistake."
It's like once a year, even if you're a Silver Adventurer, but —— and most of the Silver Adventurers we've met in the last four years are —— we kept moving.
I want to save all the lives I can save.
What did you say... it was me. It's all my fault. [M]
But that feeling hasn't faded, and now it's —— I've been asked how to get back to the kingdom of Kulvahn for the wedding, because of the crisis of the open country.
"For now, we are also in contact with Mule Borderland County, and if we reduce the number significantly, we will achieve our goal."
"That's right, but..."
Mr. Dantes said, "Are you all right? It doesn't break my face."
Oh, that's right.
It's bad, isn't it?
In time, I'm on the verge of stepping on it, but Eva's proof is more of a problem.
I wonder if the groom will be on the battlefield the day before the wedding.
That said, it was "passion" to leave Mr. Dantes and the others alone to go to the wedding.
Because I want Dantes and the others to go to the wedding.
"--Rage-kun, I'll apologize to Eva-sama with you."
Ah, thank you.
“I'm sure you'll understand.”
Don't be saved by Mr. Non's kindness.
After choosing the path I was on as an adventurer, Non returned to the "Silver Balance" immediately. Even though the "affiliation of the church" cannot be broken, if you keep it, all the actions were free, what kind of broken conditions.
“--you just have to let the wedding flow like this.”
"--Ashah, are you still saying that?"
At a distance, Arsha and Mino-san are talking about something.
At some point, Minotaurs also called Anastasia Arsha.
Arsha... eventually agreed to my marriage to Eva, even though she looked complicated. However, there were times when I felt like I was sneezing.
"Hey, I'm done with this."
Mr. Dantes says.
The first monsters appeared in front of us.
No matter how powerful a monster is, it can't defeat Mr. Dantes' defense, which is equipped with a large, heavenly silver shield.
"DOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!
Not only did Dantes take Cyclops' fist from the front, but he also dived into his nostrils with his fist to the side (...) and pierced Cyclops' face with his short spear.
Once, when I had a simulated battle with the dragon, I was alone and crossed with the dragon.
Not only me, but also the other dragons had their eyes peeled. Can we do this to the human race?
"Blaze, flame!!"
When Asha's blade of fire flies horizontally, it hits a group of monsters and turns into a flame.
Hoi-hoi
Mimino slingshot the spherical medicine, and the blazing flame further increases to envelop the surrounding area.
Since the "Magic Replicator (Dup Potion)" has been improved, and it has been found that the amount of catalyst can be suppressed by specializing only in the magic of Arsha, Mino has spared no effort to use the "Magic Enhance Potion" Arsha version.
[Sacred Wall Realm (Sacred Shield)
Non's unfolding was a barrier of sacred magic.
This prevents leaked monsters from heading to the Reclaimed Village.
Non-san's magical abilities have greatly increased since he started using the Silver Star Wand, and now he's using the magic of the country's high priest level.
Rage, you big guy!
Yes!
Dante takes over the large species, while Arsha and Mino uproot small to medium-sized monsters. If Nong-san's defense is a precaution, my job is to--
I'll take care of it.
A mass boss, or a large monster that Dantes's weapons can't reach.
This time, there was Weyburn, whose wings had degenerated due to his enlargement.
It was called the Grand Weyburn, and it crushed other monsters, spewing fire, poison, and ice from three heads.
Gruuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu
It's three heads, so it's three times louder.
When I look up,
Rage-san, should we cook it?
"Mr. Rage, if you get addicted, I'll give you some good medicine."
"Mimino-san... you said it was still a test drug, right?" I'll cure you with magic. "
I will politely refuse Asha and Mino-san's offer.
I can't stand to be bullied by an enemy like this —— after all, he's the groom before the wedding.
... it's not a flag.
Damn it!
When I cast out, I stack a number of magic spells and jump.
Although the talented pearls were gone, the talent was still alive in the body, and it felt like it was being polished as the battle went on.
I jumped out like a bullet into the face of the Grand Weyburne.
!?
I pulled out two short swords and slashed them at the crown of my face.
Spud, spud.
I could only feel it enough to cut Konjac, but the slash with the x mark cut the Grand Weyburn's head clean.
It's as sharp as ever, this silver dagger.
Gruuuuuuuuuuuu!
Goa
The poison head was angry, and the icy head spit out ice.
C 'mon, c 'mon
I created a foothold in the air, and I stepped on it and jumped.
You didn't expect me to behave like that. I felt a bit of poison in my head, but I knew I was coming, so I rushed out the poisonous fog.
Wind Magic
It's a dagger, but it can also act like a wand.
Even though it was a simple magic ceremony, the wind amplified by the silver became a gust and dispelled the poisonous mist.
"Let's get this over with right away."
I slashed the head of poison with my left dagger and the head of ice with my right hand.
As expected, when all three heads were lost, the Grand Weyburns fell into the flames on the spot.
"Fu....."
"It's still an unspeakable attack." There's no one who can judge you no matter what you see for the first time. "
Mr. Dantes told me when he landed. [M]
The scaffolding in the air is quite a result of studying magic ~
I think Japanese manga and anime were common.
That said, I don't think I would have thought of it if I had been tied to my existing Hachiko magic and talent.
Without the gifted bondage, the freedom of magic and sorcery would be more advantageous.
"Let's clear the rest."
"Oh, oh... isn't this all over before the Frontier Army comes?"
"I can't do the in-depth investigation." I'll leave that part to you. "
That's right.
Dong, the fire pole rises up.
I heard that Arsha used magic again.
"We can't lose, either."
Yes.
We were on our way to a monster crusade.
To conclude —— it took a hell of a time.
More and more monsters were coming.
When I defeated the Grand Weyburn, I could afford to leave my torso behind —— because if I left it behind, I could eat it, and the material would be an asset —— and in the evening, my priority was to let go of my magic and defeat my enemies.
So, it's all over —— it's been a long time since the sun went down.
"Oh, it's over..."
It's full of mud, and it's breathing up, and I'm gonna fuckin 'fuckin' fuckin 'fuckin' fuckin 'fuckin' fuckin 'fuckin' fuckin 'shit.
Dante was wary of his surroundings because he was a demonic stamina, but Arsha and Mino-san, who were both acting together, were sitting together on their backs, and Non-san was exerting a magic spell to recover from their fatigue.
The surroundings were-- they were in a lot of trouble.
The trees were overthrown, burned, and there were a large number of dead monsters over a wide area.
"Hey, guys, is the battle over...?"
The village chief came with a terrified face with several villagers.
Mr Dantes is responding to that.
"Oh, it's going to be okay for a while. The Mule Frontier Army will be here tomorrow, so they should be able to scout the area for you.”
"How dare you do that...!" Let me at least help you with the monster material. "
Uh, no, you don't have to help (...) or anything like that.
"And you said...?"
"This material belongs to the village." Take care of it as your own. Since the deputy may also come, please consult with me about the amount of money that can be paid to the country —— although it is a reclaimed village, is it only the crops that are exempted from tax? "
Give the materials to the village.
This was also our policy.
Well, to be honest, I can't control the materials all the time.
If you think about the trouble, you'd better give it all away.
Mimino collected all the catalysts he could use during the battle, so I received some rare ones.
"Oh no!? I can't do that. There are so many monsters....."
In addition to this, we'll get rewards for our crusade from our country and guilds.
"But, but..."
"Hurry up or the material will rot." Come on, hurry up. It's worth peeling all night long. "
When Dante pushes the village chiefs' backs forcefully, the villagers with the torch scatter to strip the monster materials.
"... so, Raige, this is the time."
Mr. Dantes came to me sitting and resting. [M]
"Hehe... it took longer than I thought."
"Even if I run with all my strength from now on, I won't be able to make it to tomorrow's wedding." I can't let the horses out at night either. what are you going to do..... "
Dantes with a dazed face.
"... Actually, I have my back."
"Old hands? No, well, I don't doubt you, but if you've been acting together for four years, you know what you can do." As expected, the fastest way to get around-- "
"I don't have to do this."
"Ah, look... that's it"
I pointed to the night sky. [M]
"Hmm? It's nothing... no, wait. I can't believe it--"
Mr. Dante's face was pulled.
There was a huge shadow floating in the sky--
