Sword of the Philosopher

The appearance of the artifact is an amulet lowering from the neck...... The structure is also extremely simple, with two red gemstones mounted vertically with silver metal as the foundation.

"It belongs to Sophia and the others who defeated the Guardians, as promised"

Gilbert said we were supposed to receive the artifact. I made it easier to talk about the distribution of treasures I got from there, and then started walking away from the ruins.

The demons also went and swept away, or as a result they never encountered the demons. There are no demons around the ruins either. Well, this is more convenient. Because...

"Oh, you know, Master Luon"

"So never mind."

"But it is. As a squire this is..."

- Right now, I'm walking with Sophia on my back.

He ran out of magic and couldn't walk to Locke, so I ended up carrying him. About three times on the way to Gilbert. "Shall I take your place?" It was suggested, "but I politely declined.

"And Sophia. That was an earlier move...... control was still sweet and the wind blades were scattered all around me. Because it's dangerous, it's forbidden to use for the time being."

"Wow, I get it"

After those conversations, we went to the woods. So Gilbert opened his mouth.

"But Mr. Luon... it feels like you were expecting this to happen"

"... foresight?

"Look, Mr. Sophia gets tired and can't move, so that's why Mr. Luon was keeping his health warm, too..."

"... you don't like it?

"It's just a joke. Don't be so mad at me."

Gilbert laughing bitterly...... somehow, there was a lot of reflection.

It was good until we entered the ruins, but inside the ruins, Gilbert and Sophia lost their turn by working with nature, and the addition of the Wrights made it even more remarkable... as a result, even during the battle of Soldier Golem, I barely moved to the end.

I think the support was pretty good, but it was definitely a passive move, and it's not strange to be mentioned around here. What to do... As I was thinking, Wrights opened his mouth.

"Um, okay?

"Oh, I know what you're trying to say"

Speaking here was for some reason Gilbert, not me.

"You questioned Mr. Luon's behavior, didn't you?

"Oh, sort of."

"There's a reason for that. I didn't explain it because there was no time to talk inside the ruins."

For some reason Gilbert starts talking. What the hell...

"Actually, there will be a demonic crusade in the near future. We were chosen for it, but we had one problem."

"Problem?"

"Because of his demonic abilities, I didn't know if I or Mr. Sophia could fathom him. So, this time I was taking treasures and artifacts and trying to see if it was my ability to go on a crusade. He asked Mr. Leon for help in times of danger."

"… so you decided in the last phase that it was dangerous and helped"

"That's what I'm talking about... Mr. Luon, how was our skill?

Gilbert throwing his gaze at me. I just don't know what you're trying to explain to the Wrights, but we should talk about it here.

"Oh, it'll be enough"

"Looks unlikely to die?

"Perhaps... you shouldn't just do something reckless."

"I know."

And here Gilbert turns his attention to the Wrights.

"That's why."

"... I see why. Crusade... be careful."

"Are you worried about me?

"I'm more than involved with you. I don't sleep well when I get to know you and you die."

"Do good."

After that word we became silent... and left the woods. When I went out onto the street, the sun was leaning a lot too. But it's good to have been able to reach a safe place before sunset color.

Here Sophia also recovers somewhat, starting to stand and walk. We decided to go back to town and break up, and we slowly took our feet... and eventually we reached the entrance to the town.

I'm breaking up with the Wrights here. We'll drop it off... so I told Gilbert after we lost sight of the two of them.

"... did you give them the most plausible explanation for any reason?

First of all, thank you.

"Salute?"

"I gave the artifact to you, but I could have gotten most of the rewards left, and I thought I'd mention a lot of things because I was satisfied... I shouldn't have had a corner, should I?

"Well, yeah."

I'll keep an eye on Gilbert. Then he shrugged his shoulders,

"You got a lot of reasons over there, don't you? From me belonging to the Alliance, I've seen guys with more one- and two-habits than you guys, so nothing surprises me about this fight. And..."

"And?"

Here Gilbert smiles.

"I felt it would be better to sell thanks without weirdly mentioning it"

... I see.

"I'm just wondering if Mr. Leon should be careful if he stands around like he's fighting today"

"... be aware? What?"

Tilt her neck, Gilbert talks with his head on.

"Somehow, it's hard to describe... Mr. Luon felt a little different from the others while he was fighting. Oh, not in a bad way. Somehow, by the signs, you mean you can be trustworthy or attracted..."

Kind of how he can't explain it well himself...... hmm, I wasn't fighting in the mood, but does that mean there was an atmosphere that reminded Gilbert of something himself? Does this have anything to do with my status? Or that's the only verse I can think of.

Speaking of which, the king, the father of Sophia, also felt "something" from me... I don't know if what Gilbert was talking about and what the king's gaze meant is the same thing, but apparently I look different from normal people depending on who I see.

Is this good or bad... just because Gilbert told the Wrights the best reason by the "something" and treasure, maybe we can move the story in a good direction if we can use it well... is it a consideration around here?

"Well, suppose it's time for me to go"

Gilbert says. After a mild stretch, he told us again.

"I've learned a lot about this battle... and the demonic raids are going to be even more intense. We need to get back in the mood."

"Are you willing to fight?

"I don't know if you're going to move aggressively, but it's true that you somehow felt a crisis fighting the demons of tomorrow's ruins."

This battle seems to have taught him some lessons too... eventually he turned his back on us,

"I'm in the guild, so you can talk to me whenever you stop by town in the future"

That's what I left out...... the encounter was a lot of light nori, but at the end of the day it was kind of a refreshing goodbye.

There was also a reward of treasure this time, so I might say that it turned out not to ask why, as in Kati's time. It just doesn't necessarily go the same way in the future... rather than maybe I was just lucky. Even if you stand around, you'll need to think about it a lot.

"... Well, Sophia"

It'll be two of us, and I'll call my name.

"Yes."

"I got the artifact, and it's probably gone from being detected by magic. So, you could have mastered the magic of movement while you were fighting. You might get a lot of moves around from here, but you ready?

"Yes, of course."

"Yeah. It's just that the destination is Norm's residence for the first time."

"It's east...... and then the other spirits?

In response to her question, I thought a little,

"You want to look at the situation on the continent and judge. It needs to be even stronger if it is to contract more than three. Let's start by signing with Norm and then think about it."

Then what to do - later in the game, defeating the four inner bodies of the five great demons will cause an event in the towns of the southern part of the continent. Many demons and demons come from the south, which was relatively peaceful, not from the north where the Demon King is, and the protagonist rushes here to participate in the defense battle.

Game over if town falls. Now that it's the real world, I don't think it's just the fall of the town, the collapse of the equals continent, but it's just not a good fall.

From there, the last five demons lead the army to begin a full-scale invasion. The human side stops it, and the moment the protagonist defeats the demon clan - the power of the wise man is completely liberated, so the protagonist gains the power to defeat the demon king.

If you make Sophia fight on her behalf...... it depends on Eina's movements, but at least a defensive battle would have no problem exposing her alive. No, rather, if she had her say as a princess, she might be able to muster soldiers of defense.

Anyway - including how we treat Sofia, it's definitely all up to future events. Although the scenario is still at the beginning, the protagonists are all moving and the situation is fluid. We need to keep our minds open so that we can handle all kinds of movements.

Yet there are still bad aftertaste events in the game… that's all I'd like to do to intervene and avoid if possible.

"All right, for one thing, we're off today and we're back on our journey tomorrow."

"Yes."

After hearing the reply, Sophia walks out to town with her...... this battle, there was also a lot of reflection. You'll need to rethink it thoroughly, including what you do with yourself and Sophia.

While I was thinking... I set my foot on the main street to arrange an inn.
