Episode 229: The Strongest Wise Man, Pretending to Be on Your Side

Make sure the three of you are ready, and I have a special magic trick on the door.

This time the enemy is a 'dirt demon tribe' with high endurance and fast escape.

Be careful not to let them get away with it, I'll watch the door open.

"... hmm?

The Demons raised their guard when they saw the door to the entrance to the hidden room open.

"This guy... who?

"Only Greville should know where this room is.... That means Greville sent reinforcements?

"I see. I don't even think it's a situation where we need reinforcements... hey you, what brings you here?

Apparently, the Demons believe out a guy named Greville who taught them this place.

- Greville.

The thirty-seventh king of the kingdom of Ages, that's what it should have been called.

The Kingdom of Ages is one of the countries that had a relationship with me in my previous life.

Since it is also a country involved in the production of the sixth source, Greville, who was king, naturally knows this hidden room as well.

However... it is uncomfortable for Greville to conspire with the Demons to destroy humans.

Greville was never like a tyrant or a dark man, but rather a competent king.

In the war against the Demons, the damage should have been minimized with appropriate tactics, the internal affairs should have been very stable and the king admired by the people.

Speaking of shortcomings, it would be about as if I had no magical talent at all.

Sure, if you're a king, you'll be able to undergo immortal magic, and it's not surprising in itself that you're alive... but you're the most remote person from outrages like working with demons to fight humans, etc.

Well, maybe someone else with the same name, and think about that later?

Whoever they are, it doesn't make any difference what they have to do to find this mastermind.

Now the first prerequisite is to defeat the demon clan in front of you.

... but they talked to me because of it.

Let's pull out any information we can pull out.

"On Greville's orders, I've come to deliver a message from Reliage"

Reliage was the Prime Minister of the Kingdom of Ages at the time I was alive, a man also known as Greville's right-hand man.

It was also a rare name at the time, so I'm pretty sure what the Demons would call 'Greville' if this had a reaction is about the king I imagine.

It's rare that demons get under humans.

The devil's response is......

"What!? No way, Reliage is back too!?!?

"Weren't the Demons the only ones to resurrect!

Somehow, that's an unexpected reaction.

There seems to be no doubt that the Demons know Reliage for now, but what the hell does' resurrected 'mean?

While I was reincarnating, was resuscitation magic developed?

If that's possible, the world doesn't seem to be in this situation right now...

In the meantime, let's talk appropriately.

"Oh. Reliage is human, but Greville liked him. Greville worked hard to bring Reliage back to life."

With that said, I watch the demons react.

Depending on the answer to this question, you will know who resuscitation magic is.

Well, the reaction...

"... Greville brought you back? What are you talking about?

"Weren't we resurrected because of the stars that came down from the sky?

This is... an unexpected answer.

"Because of the stars that came down from the sky, the Demons came back to life"?

- It became a reason to seek strength until I was reincarnated, the demon of the universe.

Sure, if it's those guys, it's no wonder they did about resurrecting the dead.

I have no idea what the demons of the universe are capable of, either, but they are out of their existing magical logic.

There is no such thing as a deserving being to explain that the impossibility of 'resuscitation of the dead' has become possible.

"Oh. Greville predicted where that star would descend, and there the body of Leliage..."

I still try to keep talking to the Demons and extract information.

Along the way - one of the 'earthly demons' shouted.

"Kill him! He's an enemy!
