Succubus-san’s Life in Another World

In the end, we went around all four places, but even though we investigated it until the sun went down, we only knew that there were demons that would have come down from the spiritual mountains in the magic buildup.

"Oh, you're back."

"Sorry I'm late."

"No, it's not that different this way either. Feene was a little early."

When we get back to base, "Grimm" greets us. Apparently, the rest of the team, like us, had no particular harvest to the extent that they found out there were demons in the magic buildup.

"Seven Little, five Fine, six of us, eighteen around here alone."

"Is that a lot after all?

"It's a lot. It's just a matter of having one place."

Reading Mr. Audrey's extended explanation, it still seems like an anomaly that the magic buildup is near this street.

The magic buildup is not that big of a thing, so it doesn't seem like a demon will ever come from it. But the demons who came down from Spiritual Mountain used the magic vegetables of the accumulation of magic vegetables as bait and sat there. Normally, even if they have escaped from the territory of Spiritual Mountain, demons who have nothing to feed should either return to Spiritual Mountain or die.

"So, do you have any idea what the cause is?

"Right. First of all, the fact that we have a magic buildup means that the influence of the Spiritual Mountain may be dropping."

"Are you losing influence?

"That's right. Maybe we gathered the necessary amount of magic vegetables and didn't need any more."

Hear Mr. Audrey's extended explanation again. As I've heard before, there are limits to the influence of spiritual mountains that have a large number of magic vegetables. That limit is true in a distance sense, and there seems to be a limit to the amount of magic vegetables that can be suppressed.

Spirit Mountain is a demonic realm inhabited by many demons and warcraft, but it has yet to be dungeoned. Magnetic vegetation is still heavily involved as a factor in dungeonization, and magic vegetation builds up in ordinary forests, caves, etc., which at some point seems to transform into a dungeon and transform it into a different crystal from what we call a dungeon core.

In other words, the transformation of the spiritual mountain, which had not yet been dungeoned, into a dungeon, has resulted in the release of excess magic vegetables into this area? That's the hypothesis Audrey gave you.

"No, then there's no explanation for the demons coming down from Spiritual Mountain"

"What's the meaning of this?"

"If you're diving into The Abyss Forest, you know what I mean. Normally demons don't come out of dungeons. No, I can't come out."

According to Grimhardt's story, of course he uses magic vegetables as bait, but the dungeon is badly reluctant for demons to go outside out of it. When a demon in a dungeon leaves the dungeon. It exhales the demons inside at once as the dungeons build up and grow more magic vegetables. It's a phenomenon commonly known as stampede.

The number of demons inside the dungeon varies depending on the size of the dungeon, but when it comes to the 'Abyss Forest' class, it is not enough for thousands, but tens or hundreds of thousands of units. If such a quantity of demons attacked me, it would even be suspicious how the city of Motoshi would overflow with adventurers and have a day even trying to have a robust wall.

Otherwise, the demons inside the dungeon are unlikely to go outside, so if the spiritual mountain had been dungeoned, it would be quite strange to see demons around here.

"So in this case, it is possible that a mighty demon was born in Spiritual Mountain."

"A demon was born?

"Oh, demons come from magic vegetables. If the immense amount of magic that Spirit Mountain has collected so far creates demonic stones and creates demons, the influence of Spirit Mountain will also fall."

Sure, that would explain the story of the demon running away from something. There are several factors that make the demon stronger, but the amount of magic used to produce one of them. Naturally, the more magic vegetables are born, the stronger the demon becomes. A demon born with a huge amount of magic vegetables cannot be weaker than the influence of the spiritual mountains falling into place.

But I didn't hear that from the bandits when I came to this spiritual mountain. Whatever was born in Spiritual Mountain, from where and when I encountered Goblin, I wonder if that's such a different time than when I came to this world.

I shuddered unexpectedly when I thought I might have encountered such a demon without knowing the right or left.
