Episode XII: The Appearing Target

"To the sailor general, the junction was broken…?"

"... Yes. They say that the sailor general and the thoughtful demon tribe, who crushed the junction, are leading multiple demons to the village……!"

It seems that the inhabitants who noticed the raid as soon as possible are ringing the bell and calling for condemnation.

The inhabitants seem to have sent their use to both Olivia and Karen's mansions.

"Dear Karen... what can we do..."

"Hurry and evacuate the inhabitants. I'll take care of the Mercedes and the Demons."

"I have a citizen who has missed the run...... Dear Karen, please...!"

When he evacuated the inhabitants who came to the mansion, Karen began to give instructions with tequila.

Seems to gather the soldiers in the territory and head towards the Dead Swamp Labyrinth.

"Mr. Cullen, we'll accompany you!"

"No...... No more trouble for Io and the others. I am responsible for crusading any demons that come out of the labyrinth. Therefore, please evacuate with the inhabitants."

The accompanying suggestion was rejected by Karen without a shame.

In case anything happened, Karen ran away, leaving me wanting you to protect the inhabitants of the evacuation.

…………

Karen's complexion is bad.

I would be in the worst shape and in the worst mental condition.

In that state, can you take a decent command...?

"I can't believe the sailor general who was supposed to be protecting the labyrinth came out on purpose..."

"I guess I had something to do outside. … for example, there are enemies that must be defeated, or something"

"... are we the cause?"

"I don't know. But it won't be nothing."

…………

There will also be soldiers in Eriestille territory, but rapid action will not be possible in the absence of the Lord.

Calling for help outside the territory takes hours to arrive.

I mean, Karen's the only one who can deal with the sailor general right now.

I don't know how proficient Rayford's soldiers are.

But no matter how strong the soldiers are, it won't be enough to beat the sailor general.

If Karen fights the sailor general like this, he will definitely be defeated.

"What do we do, Io?"

"It's settled. We're going to the sailor general. This is a great opportunity. The sailor general came out of the messy labyrinth on purpose. Staying here will make it extraordinarily easier to attack the labyrinth"

"Um, I thought you'd say that"

I went back to my room and was ready.

Fully equipped to deal with the sailor general.

Get ready and get out of the mansion.

Karen is still in the process of gathering soldiers.

It will take some time to get to the labyrinth.

The sailor general needs to take Elfi seriously, too, if he's going to deal with him.

You have to take a disguised magic grant (magic item) to give it all.

Given that, I'd rather the two of us head to the labyrinth than wait for Karen to gather soldiers.

"... let's go"

"Oh."

After the mansion, we headed towards the labyrinth.

The territory was in turmoil.

The bells that were ringing until earlier have already stopped, and instead people's anger can be heard from all over the place.

"I thought a lot of people were brave because they were standing by the labyrinth, but from what I can tell, that doesn't sound like it."

"Until then, the bonds would never have been broken."

Run through the confusion and walk away.

"Acceleration (acceleration)" has been used to produce considerable velocity, but Elfi has followed without changing his complexion.

He said he hasn't got his legs back yet, but he's still a human separated spec.

"... over there"

After a while of sickness, I could see the demon.

The screams and demonic roars of the people who were late on the run, and the sky is full of black smoke blown out of private houses.

I cannot confirm the appearance of the sailor general.

A cloudy green liquid was about to enter one private house.

Shortly before that, the door opened with momentum and a man with a sword popped out.

"Oh, Father!"

"You stay in the house!"

A man pushes the girl he's trying to follow into the house.

There, a green liquid hung.

That's the slime species - the swamp slime that lives in the swamp.

"Whoa!!"

Swaying his sword, a man intercepted the slime.

Slime's body is attacked and some of it crumbles.

But also in an instant, the splashed area returned to the body of the slime at the next moment.

"Fuck, fuck!"

Slime tried to take in a man, jumped up.

"-" Devil's Eye/Ashes Explosion ""

Elphi's Devil's Eye blows up the slime at that size.

Because every nucleus that floats somewhere in the body has blown up, its body never regenerates.

"Ah... you guys are"

"I'm an adventurer. Are you okay?"

"Oh, oh..."

Stand up the man with the ass cake and ask him what's going on in the village.

Apparently there was a demonic raid only about a dozen minutes ago.

Those who had taken the time to prepare were late on the run, and the man said in a trembling voice that several had already been sacrificed.

"Have you seen the sailor?"

"Yes, no. Only demons are there, and I haven't seen them like that."

Even though there is a demon figure, there is no such thing as a sailor general.

Happy to have destroyed the junction and gone back to the labyrinth?

Or are you asking me what's going on somewhere?

"Huh."

"Wow!?"

There was movement at the edge of my sight at the time I said it.

Attract men and jump off the spot.

The liquid hit him directly where he was standing just now.

Make a juicy noise and the grass that was growing on the ground melts.

It was the acid striking serpent (Acid Snake) that had launched the attack.

There were other demons gathering here that crawled out of the labyrinth, such as slime like earlier and toothworms crawling on the ground.

"Anyway, get away from here right away -"

"I can't get away yet! My daughter is left at home!"

Point to the private house, and a man screams.

Through the door of the house, I saw a girl peeking into my face.

"... ok. We'll draw the demon. Bring your daughter in."

"Shh, sorry...!"

A man runs for the private house behind him.

I sewed the head of the acid shot serpent on the ground with a knife trying to fly over it.

The attack signaled and the demons around us attacked at the same time.

"Do you think it's okay if I don't unmask it?"

"Whatever -!!"

Elfi's eyes glow in the Red Lotus.

This was followed by a series of small explosions.

Demons explode, meat splashes.

The demon that comes at me sewing through that gap is my prey.

Flap the flickering slime and determine the location of the nucleus inside.

The moment he gave himself up to fly again, he thrust his inner nucleus with a jade machete.

Our offense will be littered with demonic debris in no time.

The wreckage overlapped and was like a small mountain.

There are no earthspiders or flaming dragon-class demons, and all they jump on is miscellaneous fish.

To this extent, it doesn't matter between me and Elfi.

"It's all right now!"

A man reached the private house and held up his own daughter.

Try to protect the broken goods and cover them with your arms, they'll come towards us.

"I'm not afraid anymore...?"

"Oh! Those brothers will help! And no matter what happens, your father will protect you!"

Elphi's Devil's Eye keeps the demons away from her father and daughter.

The gap I made was covered with my sword moves.

From the private house, the two came right in front of me.

Break the siege net and let those two escape the scene once.

Slash down the demon in front of you and turn your gaze to hang Elfi's voice.

That moment...

- Then try to protect me.

At the same time as the voice sounded from heaven, a mass of magic struck the man's body directly.

It sounds like some kind of exploding sound, containing baccha and moisture.

Without screaming, a man who had heavily damaged his left half fell to the ground.

The girl I had in my arms was thrown out and rolled down the ground.

"... father?"

A girl crawls and approaches a man.

But men don't say anything.

Because with the first blow, he's already dead.

"Awesome. How dare you protect your child from that blow!"

"Ahhh... ahhh!"

A girl cries out as she clings to the remains of a man.

Shake my hair, call my father by his name many times.

"Don't cry. I'll send you to the same place as your father in no time."

Immediately after the mockery and joyful voice.

Towards the girl, countless bullets of water poured out of the sky.

"- Huh!!"

Interrupt in front of the girl and slash off the bullet that has fallen.

A misguided bullet landed right around the corner, wearing a large piece of ground.

If people eat it, there's not a single pile, a vicious blow.

Looking up into the sky, there is no sign of those who have attacked.

But there are signs of cover-up magic in the air.

"... show yourself"

He pointed sharp ahead of the magic, and called it so.

Kutsukutsu and there were signs of laughter at the tip of the sharp.

"Oh, I'm sorry. It's been a long time since you've seen me again. You don't know who I am."

The cover-up magic was lifted.

Periperi and magic peel off, and the man, who was assimilated to the landscape, reveals himself.

――――

It was one young man who showed up.

A face that gives a gentle look to blue hair that is organized to a moderate length.

The body has no waste of fat and is thin enough to be called luxurious.

But.

"... hey"

Wrapped around it is a pitch-black military uniform indicating Demon King Army affiliation.

And one horn that grew from his forehead, which the youth saw when he scratched his hair up in a conceited breeze.

This young man.

You can't possibly not know who this guy is.

There's no way I'm gonna forget his face.

"Dionys……!"

A former traitor.

Dionis Rubulk was smiling nicely in the air.
