Sword of the Philosopher

That's why the next day. Fili dives into the dungeon again with another party.

There is still room, as events should certainly have occurred after the fourth dungeon offense in my memory.

I'll try to find out how the other protagonists are moving, but it hasn't changed yet... so I'm free...

"Um, can I have a word?

As I was free to pinch my sandwich at the tavern, I was called out. When I sent my gaze, it was Katie.

"... what's up?

Hey, I need to ask you something.

To me? She sits in a seat facing me while I tilt her neck.

The expression was serious enough for me, so as far as I'm concerned, I just have to get up and wait for her words.

"... even though it's about when I entered the cave"

"Oh."

"I ask you straight in, but the magic you used is' holy water in heaven ', right?

... Ho, right. Shit.

I immediately guessed what she wanted to say. Looking at the magic I used, I guess the question arose as to why I'm in such a despicable place.

"Myself, it was the second time I had seen that magic in person... but it should have been a highly challenging magic among healing magic. Why are you sitting in a village like this?

"... shouldn't I?

"I didn't say that. But I'm interested. I know because this village is also my home... there aren't many strong demons around here."

Hmmm... one hand to delude for the right reasons if you're only interested... it's troublesome if you get rumored weird.

Assuming you publish all my abilities here, you will undoubtedly be festived in the battle against the Demon King. So, I have reached a level where I can defeat the five great demons in my executive class by myself... but I can't defeat the Demon King. I mean, no matter how much you've done, if I'm at the forefront of the battle against the Demon King, it's a straight path to the continental collapse route.

There seems to be some way to force Fili to pull... but the likelihood of a scenario collapsing increases, and I don't want to do it any more than I can start over.

So I can't use this hand...... she won't be convinced that there's no good reason to mislead it properly. If you get rumored about it as a trigger, there's no ex or kid. We need to stop here to get on with the scenario.

"... right"

I'm small and out of sight... I managed to come up with a reasoned explanation. I just don't know if I can convince you.

Well, anyway, we'll have to.

"Uh... well, we can talk about it, but there's one condition"

"Conditions?"

"I don't need to say anything else about this."

Katie nodded in vain at my request.

"Fine, but is it that serious?

"No, I don't know... you know, you might seem like a freak"

Kati tilting her neck. I realized I couldn't explain until I got to the bottom of this, and I opened my mouth.

"First of all... you know, I ran into someone named Prophet as I traveled all over the continent"

"Prophet?

"I don't know what the real place is because I call myself... but I got that guy to take advantage of my luck with half the fun. Then..."

I put down a beat, and yet I glance at Kati before I tell her.

"The man told me I'd be dead soon."

"It's... again..."

"Normally, I'm laughing at you for being stupid, but you're right about my personality and what happens in the future... and I'm doing something about it, even though I think it's stupid."

"Is that, what?

He said, "Find someone who can defeat the Demon King."

So, grab a glass and drink some water. Katie is silent and I will continue to talk further.

"I mean, according to that fortune teller, I'm going to die in battle with the Demon King. I don't know if you've been in some kind of battle or involved... so I'm looking for someone with qualities."

"So, did you find anyone who wanted them? In the first place, I don't think very many people have the skills to take you down around here, given that magic."

And to put it that far, Katie threw a suspicious eye at me.

"... even that cave would have been easier to fight if you'd been in the lead, wouldn't you?

"It's strange that I have to find someone with qualities to lead the way... because I have to figure out what I'm capable of"

Katie has a subtle look like she's not convinced. So I raise my voice to delude.

"So, somehow I thought, he... about Fili, maybe he'll be stronger"

"That's... that it's a skill that can fight demon kings?

"It's a potential ability. Believe it or not, it's my fault."

I shrugged my shoulder and answered, Kati had a still unsweetened look on her face... eventually,

"Okay. I understand you have quite a reason to be here, too."

"Oh, well."

Words are backwards giving her the look that she doesn't ask enough... just won't be entirely convinced. But she didn't even come up with the means to try to force her to ask, she didn't say anything more.

As far as I'm concerned, I'm thrilled inside, but I'm desperate to make an expression and respond. I'm dragging on the first conversation I had with Fili, but somehow... I just want to make it right that I'm nervous at an early stage because I should be involved with the protagonists in the future.

Chat somewhat from there. The content begins with the situation around this village, about the situation across the continent. Although there are more sightings of the demons at this stage, there has not yet been a full-scale clash between man and the demon king.

I know the scenario though. From me it's definitely in the second reading phase...... from here on out I'll be fully active too.

For one thing, the policy is to move on as the scenario suggests, and then avoid bad aftertaste events. Because that leads to changing scenarios, we need to make a good move so that the protagonists don't have an impact -

Eventually, Katie takes a seat. But I accompanied him with a word when he left.

"Sooner or later, we might need some help."

- I thought you were referring to the demonic raid, but you're not. I'm sure the Demons are invading, so in some cases, they'll be asked to join the battle, what it feels like.

When I hammered "Oh," she left the tavern. So this one takes a deep sigh... much more tired than diving into a dungeon.

Will this be how you interfere in the future...... no, it's natural to deal with people in avoiding all sorts of depressing events in the first place. I think we should get used to it now.

I left the tavern to change my mood for now, even though I was anxious in my heart. And I'll look around the village... but in a few moments, this village reminds me of being raided.

I'm rebuilding at the end of the game...... I'd rather avoid the raid itself if I were you, but that doesn't motivate Fili to fight the Demons. But as far as I'm concerned, it's kind of...

So I came up with one thing. Village raids are more essential than proceeding as per the scenario. If so - I decided to go back to the inn.
