Episode XV: Beyond the Fiery Realm

After the battle with Flaming Dragon, he made sure there were no demons around him, and the crusaders entered the break again.

Fortunately, after all those raids, there has been little damage to the crusaders.

Some wounded, but at a level that can be managed by potion or sorcery.

I've used most of my magic in the battle with Flaming Dragon, but I'm almost recovering thanks to the jade knife.

I don't know if the machete is awesome or my magic is low.

A few minutes later, a meeting was held to determine future policy.

"Until now, no matter how well the crusaders had proceeded, they had stopped the progression around the middle belly. There have been many victims, and since then, the Burning Place has continued.

Advanced Flame Class Magic.

When we got here, there was no such magic hanging, so I guess it's the power of the new Flaming Demon General.

Given the amount of health and water consumed in the battle against heat and demons, we have to decide whether or not to retreat in the middle belly.

If we are going to move on from here, if we are not prepared to challenge the Flaming Demon General, what we are waiting for is death.

"We haven't had any casualties yet this time, and we still have strength and water. Shouldn't we move on?"

Many of the adventurers had made the point of moving on.

It's convenient for us.

"What do you two think?"

So, me and Elfi asked for my opinion.

You weren't dealt with until just now, but it's been at this rate since you defeated Flaming Dragon.

"No objection"

"Me, too."

It's not like the two of us got backed up, but in the end, the crusaders got to move on.

About thirty minutes passed after I left from my middle abdomen.

I'm just coming behind the labyrinth, and the magic vegetables are thick, and there's a lot of demons.

From the hit over the middle belly, we stopped seeing the lower demon, Fire Roper, and instead many flaming rock tigers and flaming lizards (Firelizards) emerged.

That is also powerful, one by one.

I felt a gradual loss of room from the adventurers.

No matter how elite you are, if this much demon comes out, you can't deal with it.

Due to the large number of allies, we can't avoid demons and break through.

If you're going to attack the labyrinth, it's more efficient to try with a few of the highest levels of strength in a country.

Then a few minutes later, I ran into another group of demons.

They pinch us back and forth, from left to right, and we take care of it.

"Wow ah!?"

Breaking through the avant-garde, a flaming rock tiger burst into the magician's squad.

The other adventurers are engaged with demons who have been here for a long time and cannot react.

――――

Elfi activated the Devil's Eye.

A small explosion occurs in front of the flaming rock tiger and the movement stops.

In the meantime, other adventurers regained their posture and launched an attack.

Then a few minutes later, the demons that had managed to raid could be wiped out.

"Sorry," blast "!"

"Thanks!"

With a perfectly settled call, the adventurers thank Elfi.

From now on, it's a sight I've seen many times already.

When the formation is attacked that could collapse, it is rebuilt with Elphi's demonic eye.

As a result, there were still no dead people out there as one.

"... elphi. Is magic properly preserved?"

The Adventurers cannot defeat the Flaming Demon General.

As in the case of the Earthly Demon General, he is supposed to attack the Flaming Demon General with Elphi's Demon Eye.

There is no ex or child when the elphi at heart drains his magic.

"No problem. Consuming magic is minimized"

Yet, after that, Elfi helps the adventurers to be disciplined.

"Why are you doing this to protect them?"

"... I don't care about them, but right now, we're in the same crusade."

Companions... adventurers, huh?

Sure, it's the same crusader, so I can't even be caught in the wind of being one of them...

Smile all the time, Elfi said.

"If I can... I don't want my people to die anymore."

"......, sweet idea"

"Oh. Orteguia told me you were sweet, too."

At that time, a cry was sounded to inform the enemy of the attack.

Now a flaming lizard (Firelizard) is crawling out of a crack on the ground.

One of them jumps to an adventurer who is slow to react.

"- Huh!"

There, I threw a spare sword.

Pierce the eye of the flaming lizard and let it remain deadly.

"Thanks for your help!"

I nodded back at the adventurer who was coming to thank me, and I told Elfi.

"Then my magic will be restored with a jade knife. I move. You don't use too many demon eyes."

I didn't approve of Elfi's idea, but at least me and Elfi are buddies.

You will need to step aside more than you aspire to the same goal.

Elfi looked a little surprised and then let her mouth down.

From there, I actively turned to supporting the adventurer.

I don't use Demon Stone as long as I can, but I can recover with a jade knife.

Then another thirty minutes later.

We reached the depths of the labyrinth.

Wide scaffolding and a river of magma flowing behind.

If you look up, the sky is peering through a wide open vent.

From the structure of the labyrinth, this is the deepest part.

Even from the amount of magic vegetables that drift, there is no doubt that there is a labyrinth nucleus here.

…………

Flaming Demon General, and no sign of Bertoga.

But I can feel signs of demons.

I guess he's lurking somewhere in this space.

……!

At that time, he turned to Magma like Misha had been played.

Elfi is also looking in that direction with his demonic eyes.

At the same time as Misha calls for vigilance.

There was a roar and multiple shadows popped out of the lava.

It wasn't the Flaming Demon General who showed up.

Earlier, Elphi made me try to defeat Flaming Dragon with the Devil's Eye.

Three dragons appeared at the same time.

"Are you kidding, these are the Flaming Demons!?"

As the adventurers were able to wolf,

"Ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh"

Three growls rock the labyrinth.

The three opened their mouths at the same time, releasing the braces with good momentum.

"" Running Wall (Aquawall) "!"

The magicians put up a fence and somehow outsmart the braces.

But not long before they were relieved, the Flaming Dragons pursued them.

"Wow ah!?"

"- Don't be a wolf, you idiot!"

Elphi's Devil's Eye streaks in the air.

To a small explosion, Flaming Dragon stopped moving as surprised.

In line with that moment, he threw a demonic stone.

"" Demon (Blake Magic) ""

The flaming dragon, drunk by the explosion, lived while chasing the wound.

You can't defeat it with a single blow to the boulder.

"Continue to the two of you!"

So, the adventurer finally made his move.

Each rebuilds the formation and attacks the Flaming Dragon.

From there, there was a death fight.

Flaming dragon releases the brace and the sorcerer prevents it.

A swordsman launches an attack on Flaming Dragon in that gap.

The most active was that full-body armored man.

Removing the caged hand for some reason, he wields the great sword and snaps the nails of the flaming dragon.

Elfi's demonic eye burst into his mouth and his flaming dragon burst to the point where Flaming Dragon, who had lost one weapon, tried to release his brace.

Misha was running around the battlefield in a human secluded motion, kicking the wall and leaping, putting a machete in the nails of a flaming dragon.

Aim for the fallen Flaming Dragon, and me and the other swordsmen will be slaughtered.

Repeating those acts, the adventurers managed to defeat Flaming Dragon.

Neither was there any reason for this to be intact.

Many fell into non-combat after being blown away by flaming dragon advances or unable to assist with braces.

Those who do not, too, consume a great deal of magic and are weakened.

"If it hadn't been for the" explosion "guys, it would have sucked..."

"Oh. Those two are the greatest merits of this one."

Still, the adventurers are satisfied with the look on their face that they've done it.

"Elfi."

"Oh."

It's not the end.

There is no reason why three Fire Dragons of that magnitude should be Fire Demons.

At the next moment, the Magma river explodes and many pillars are born.

The entire labyrinth is shaking violently.

"hey...... what!?"

"Hey, you're lying!?"

Out of the lava, a flaming giant appeared several times the size of a man.

It blows unparalleled magic from all over its body and raises a roar that echoes from the bottom of the earth.

And waved his arms down loudly.

At that moment, a flame blew out of it.

The adventurers scream at the flames that fill the room, painstakingly activating defensive magic.

I knew I was coming in advance, and I jumped out of range, and Elfi was overflowing the flames with demonic eyes.

By the time the flames were extinguished, most of the adventurers were leaking their distressed voices.

"That's not the ratio of the flaming dragon's braces...! What the fuck!"

"Is that the Flaming Demon General!? You can beat him like that...!"

"Run, oh!"

The adventurers, who have lost their will to fight, turn their backs on the Flaming Demon General and try to escape.

I'm not the sweetest opponent to let that get away with.

With a roaring voice, the Flaming Demon General waves up his arms.

At that moment, an arm made of that flame exploded.

The Flaming Demon General turns to Gurli.

"I don't see Bertoga. You might be lurking somewhere, so be careful."

"I understand."

Thank you for saving the magic so far.

This is where the adventurers end up.

- After that, we'll do it.

I don't see Bertoga.

But if he's here, he'll show up before the Flaming Demon is defeated.

Come out quickly.

That's your time.

――――

The Flaming Demon General roared and moved out.
