Story of The Ancient Demon King!

The day after they broke up with Krono, Kageha and Lilia got tired in luxury lodgings as instructed, and stood in silence from each other.

Lilia can't speak to signs like a lizard blade or a person who might just be a doll performing a mission.

Dressed in travelers' clothes, both run faster than carriages.

Kageha takes speed into account, but Lilia's health is at its limit.

Lilia told the front-running lizard.

"Well, may I take a break?

Then,

"Hmm? Oh, I'm sorry. It seems that what I did was too late to realize that I was obsessed with thinking. Hmm, yeah, let's get some rest in the shade of this tree. -Is that good?

……

The lizard stopped and suggested to Lilia in a light tone.

Lilia, who breathes roughly, is stunned by lizards other than in front of Chrono, whom she sees for the first time.

"Nah, what? What's the matter with you? Like a raccoon."

"Phew... weren't you such a lizard... so easy to catch?

The lizard lowered his mask and spoke affectionately to Lilia.

The figure was completely different from her before Chrono.

"I don't know if it's easy to catch... Together they gave loyalty to Krono-sama. Doesn't it make sense then to unite and serve Master Kurono?

"... I mean, let's get along?

Lilia confirms after the lizard who explains to the rapper while heading to the shade of the tree.

"Well, such an interpretation would be problematic.... if I were told, I wouldn't even introduce myself."

In the shadow of a tree that deviates from a crowded path, the two gently discuss each other.

"I'm a lizard. A short time before I met you, I became the shadow of Kurono-sama. My favorite color is black. The color I hate is white. The treasure is this black hair.... what do you think?

I proudly introduced myself while stroking my dark-haired tail.

"Yes, it's beautiful. I'm Lilia. The treasure is this sword. My favorite colors are black... and peach. I can do... cooking, laundry... housework."

"Hmm. Nice to meet you, Lilia."

Lilia, betrayed in a good way, is relieved by the goodness of the lizard.

"Good, the lizard is easy to talk to. I've been breathing so much since yesterday...."

"Ahahah, I was just thinking about something yesterday. I was concentrating. I was unconscious when the Lord called me“ friendly. ”I'm really sorry."

Even though it was over the mask, Lilia was relieved to be a lizard with a smile.

In doing so, a question arose this time.

"... but why are you so quiet in front of Kurono-sama?

……

"... no, you don't have to talk if you don't want to."

Lilia asked, and the lizard looked hard and meditated....

"... Gu!? Uuu....."

"Kageha!?

Suddenly, the lizard suddenly squeezed his chest and began to suffer.

Of course, Lilia starts anxious about something.

"What's wrong? Sick?"

"Kh! No, this is it..."

Huh?

With a feverish face, Kageha tells her to confess.

"When I think of the Lord, or the Lord... my chest hurts somehow, and my face and body get hot."

……

"In this way....."

Again, I think of Chrono on the road.

"- You know what? Dragons and griffins don't have muscle strengths.

Chrono talks with a face.

"Guu!! It's cool!!... here it is. When you see your balls and face and give your voice... cum! My heart and so on are about to burst into pain. I can't even match my eyes...."

"... hmm"

Lilia stared at the frozen lizard.

You look like you're surprising me.

"Uuu... oh, perhaps I am under the great power of the Lord. Fear, admire, are you afraid again....."

No, you said it was cool, and Lilia calmly asked, suppressing the stuttering soul that she wanted to blow up.

"Maybe... you're making a rude face because you're embarrassed?

"I'm not saying I'm ashamed. Because I don't want you to look disgraceful."

"... unfortunately, I can't do anything about it. Do something for yourself."

"Hmm!?

Kageha can't hide his surprise at Lilia's exact response.

"From what I'm saying... do you know why...?

"Well...."

"Tell me."

……

I approached Lilia for fear of getting in the way of my mission.

"Hey, Lilia, can you tell me? As it stands... I'm in trouble as it is..."

A weak expression unimaginable from a normal lizard.

"Until now, I have been saved by the kindness, mercy, good looks, brilliance and thoughtfulness of the Lord, but I do not know when I will cause trouble to the Lord....."

Lily sympathizes with the gap between the rhetoric of Kurono and the usual kageha.

but....

"... I definitely don't like it"

"No!? Absolutely!? I assure you!?

Lilia doesn't give the answer, although the lizard with fine, healthy brown skin is also pale and carelessly bruised.

Lilia showed her concern for her new friend that she should find out for herself, not mean.

"... fufufu"

"No, why are you laughing...? Is it also an addiction...? Unlike what he looks like, he's a terrible guy...."

Unlike the burning Realga, who can take care of her like a sister, Lilia dedicates her endless love and gratitude to Chrono for meeting lizards like pure friends.

"... that's right. Anyway, what have you been thinking?

Nuh?

It's a blatant diversion, but the lizard quickly switches to its usual cool face.

"... ahh, mmm. Look at this."

"That's... the money Kurono-sama gave you, right?

Kageha took it out of her pocket in a leather bag containing the funds that Chrono had deposited with her.

"Isn't that a lot?

"... use it for shopping, etc."

"Still, there will be a lot.... no, let's be clear. ― ― I speculated that this is a trial for us.

……

I would say that I read too much, but it is true that quite a lot of money has been given.

Even if you say it's luxurious, it's for two, but it's for seven or eight.

"Another question I wondered is why the Lord was so bound by [Kensei]."

"... I wanted money."

"You know the strength of the Lord. Take away such small civic lusts from any villain with their transcendent strength."

"Sure... if you ask me..."

Kageha stood up and continued to guess.

"Even if you don't take care of it so much, the Lord's blockade is a far higher place than mine. It should be easy to get money without anyone knowing. then....."

"... are you suggesting that a monster such as the Curse Wetland or the [Demon of the Swamp] is the goal?

Hmm.

Chrono and I had met in the vicinity of the Kars wetlands, and I thought there was some connection.

"It's an urgent request... but I'm sure the Lord will be able to foresee it. I don't know what kind of interest you have in the Kars wetlands."

Love grows again in the lizard, but Lilia lets go of her thoughts.

"... but what did you do when you gave us the money..."

Yes, I don't know what it means to have too much money.

I wonder if it could be used to gather information.

"Perhaps the Lord is simply trying to use our funds. However, I would like you to be mainly satisfied with this. No, to be honest...."

"In other words....?

A mysterious reservoir was created and the lizard told him.

"... I want to be praised by the Lord."

Lilia feels weak even when combined with a lizard who confesses in a whisper in unconscious light.

"... oh yeah. So?"

"Ugh, um, I'm scared... there. ― ― I'm going to finish up one of the Lord's tasks and give it to you, but what do you think?

♢♢♢

"... I don't like it."

Lilia stumbles on a tree with a unique roaring shape in the Kars wetlands.

"Huh? What happened?

"This moisture. The lizard taught me how to cross the tree, but it's disgusting because of the fog and the moisture."

The Kars wetlands are humid apart from the creepy fog, and even the magically modified Lilia feels uncomfortable.

In addition, the foot is a muddy swamp immersed in water, and I don't know where the monster is hiding.

Therefore, they are flying over the tree to reliance on their physical abilities.

"Hmm, but there's nothing I can do about it. Nature is our opponent, but we can't help it............ No, if we are the Lord, we will solve it, but we can only endure it."

"... yeah"

The decision made by Kageha and Lilia was to scout the [Demon of the Swamp] in the Kars wetlands before Kurono.

That's why I got equipped and hurried here.

"But... the environment in this wetland is certainly harsh for ordinary people. This fog is clearly poisonous."

"Those swordsman candidates are going to die just like this."

"Hmm...."

In Lilia's response, the Kageha thought of three Kensei candidates... not the one who was there.

That beautiful boy with gray hair.

A boy with snowy white hair, just like he used to be.

A cute, somewhat masculine, charming boy.

Potential talent seems high, but it is clearly weak from the gazebo's point of view.

I noticed the brave man at a glance.

--I don't like brave men.

I think I was practicing to serve that kind of person, and then I vomit.

At that time, even if I had been able to live without meeting the Lord, I thought I was supposed to serve that brave boy, and he seemed crazy.

Know how happy it is to serve Kurono while clearly understanding it.

If you don't have the power to do something, it doesn't look like you've made an effort to throw up blood.

The habit seeks answers easily, and begs my Lord to teach easily.

The air around Piscili and Kageha is pouring.

"Kageha...?

The sudden silent fury of the lizard also pressured Lilia.

(I hate that brave man....)

- To the point of killing.

"............ ah"

"Nah, nah, what...?

Looking at it as if it was spreading killing air, suddenly it broke off, and the lizard raised his voice, which seemed to continue.

"... calm down and listen to me."

"Uh-huh... I'll do my best."

Calm down, don't be angry.

Yeah?

A mysterious addition was made to the disturbing words.

"Perhaps our actions are known to our enemies as to what kind of entanglement it is."

"Eh!?

"Given the movements of the surrounding monsters and the signs of movement... it is highly likely that they are being lured in."

"Hah!?

It's not important.

I was deliberately jumping into a trap.

Lilia gets stunned, but she'll be back soon.

Because I didn't think this lizard would jump into the enemy's pocket before it was too late.

"And... it seems I've come to an irremovable position without realizing it."

……

I was so relieved that my soul was about to escape from my mouth.

"I'm used to it like a regular means. Soon, some sort of demon will reach out."

The devil's hand came at once.

"--You 're right... don't you think it would be strange not to be noticed in such a killing?

"Hmm!?

"... are you here?"

That voice... is in front of the tree below where Lilia and the others are.

From the fog came a monster in a butler's clothes that slipped over the water and covered the skull of a goat.

"Well, this time, there are two people who look like people. Recently, visitors have not stopped, but there is only one thing to do."

The monster descended from the lizards into the trunks of two adjacent trees, and clasped his hands.

"... I don't want to know the reason for today's visit. My role is to try it out. ----Kahan's Two Balls

Silver spheres emerge from two magical formations created by the butler of the goat head.

"Oops, I'm here with a man named Solanada. While you're enjoying the conversation... thank you very much."

"" Hmm!?

Two spheres of silver popped out looking at the two of them.

"Nh!!

"Kh!? Oh, it's heavy!

Parries silver spheres that hit each other with a large weight with a dagger and a cutlass, but sweats cold to the weight of its response.

"Lilia, hold on till I take him down. That's the end of the operation."

"... roger that."

Speaking of being a monster, I could understand the fact that I was pulling my legs without being able to slash the intelligent person I was talking to.

"Well then... line it up!"

The lizard appeared in front of Solanada instantly without a sound, releasing a stabbing killer.

Ugh!

Then I immediately kicked the skull of the bone upwards...

"--Oops!"

……

The intense kicking of the lizard is brilliantly received by Solanada.

"... you think monsters are martial arts? Cheeky....."

"... this is the first time I've been thrown up like this."

The lizard, who had fallen before it reached the edge, gazed at the sornada with its hands pushed forward.

"Some of the visitors who arrived here once dealt with martial arts like this, and we imitated it. I wonder if you're prepared to defend anything."

Regardless of the Solanada we started talking about, it was a lizard who was trying to push his legs out.

"Haah!!

"Hmm!?

With the sound of water behind her, Lilia's screams echoed.

"Kuu, eeeee!!

"Lilia!!

"I'm alright!

It was Lilia who fell, but she immediately regained her position and started playing metal sounds.

"I thought it would be better if you gave up. But if you walk this far, you won't be helped anymore."

……

"Oh, yeah. It's called" Kahan's Two Balls. "I am ashamed to say that this martial arts is the only thing I have ever dealt with, and my master, who looked up to me, has been given this magic."

A silver sphere that follows Lilia.

Lilia struggled to cope with the weight and speed of the irregular trajectory.

But...

"... you won't be able to catch up with Kahan's Two Balls, so I will sit down gradually after sending two to visitors over there."

"Nh!!

The lizards kick one after the other.

There is not much time to lose.

I am also worried about the strength of Lilia's cutlass, but I am most worried about how long Lilia's poor feet can be prevented.

Based on the weight that the lizard felt over the dagger, even if one shot was taken properly, the modified Lilia would be inevitable.

"Holy shit! This is amazing!!

"Fufu!!!

I don't know if the inside of the butler's uniform is a bone, but Solanada guards the head and torso without showing any pain while making something smash.

The palms, elbows, knees, soles of feet, and even imperfections were skilfully captured with them.

(The first time I saw martial arts is also painful.... but more than that... what do you mean?

For some reason, it does not arrive one step after the effective hit.

Kageha predicted from the reception and reaction of this monster that the skill of Sornada's own warrior might be making it so.

"My master's power."

"Nh, that's a lot of mouth! Just keep grunting!!

Solanada is a unique recipient of kageha kicks while having a conversation.

"... the effect of this fog is that you can see your movement in your hand."

"Nh!!

The lizard's leg was shaken up to see the heel drop, but by that time Solnada had already stepped back half a step.

"The Mist of Judelka." Everything that moves in this fog falls out on my husband. That feeling is shared with us, our servants. "

……

Slowly lower the raised leg.

(If so, is it easy to lure her here? But it's troublesome.....)

Every time there is a hint of metal in the back, there is a rush.

It was a foresight ability because I felt the motion directly from the fog.

"Would you like to sit down? It's not a strength, it's a difference in the power of the Lord."

The lizard's lethality swells up.

I don't know what triggered it, but I don't mind continuing. Because there have been visitors at this level in the past.

So enjoy chatting with visitors as usual.

"My master Molly, to put it bluntly, is a living magic book. The incarnation of magic, which deals with a lot of great magic from a long time ago. It is not uncommon for a man of destiny to reach out lightly. Isn't that right?

……

Enjoy a few conversation opportunities in the rare visitor Kars wetlands.

"Hoho, until that visitor is exhausted, I will only accept your beautiful legs until then. Ho-ho-ho-ho-ho-ho... oh, excuse me... the gentleman's mask is off.... but if it's not enough to get out of this mess, it's very... I can't take you back to your husband."

"Ugh!!

Behind the lizard, Lilia's avoided silver sphere knocks down the tree.

We're close to the limit of the grip we get as fast as we can.

"Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa."

"--A tongue that spins around a bone."

Cut off the words of Sornada.

Did you say the difference of the Lord? Then I will not lose. I have already acquired a greater lord than God. It's nothing compared to living in a wetland like a monster. "

Kageha speaks with his hands wide open and his eyes filled with powerful light with fanatical words.

"... that's..."

"--his teaching is a guide. One way to victory. Truth is the right thing."

The lizard who truncates the words of Solanada takes off his mask and throws a dagger in the middle of the head of the bone... between his eyebrows.

"Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa."

Detected by the fog, Solanda leaned and avoided, but the next thing she saw was a lizard bending down and taking an unusual stance.

It's like a beast, and it's about to rush out.

"─" The Shadow "

Kageha was laughing at the visit of a place to bring her husband's teachings to life.
