Sword of the Philosopher

Those who were in the tower.

The first to clash was Nestor. Unlike the first battle, he is attacked by an orga directly from the front, turning to a flush counterattack.

Silvi slashes in the meantime. Do you still have the magic of the increased attack power I put on, or the blow I slashed deep into and unleashed holds the orga motion back more than I expected?

And Sophia, but avoids Auga attacks accurately and deals more damage with 'Aerial Sword'.

Then it was "Fresh Stream Flash," and Auga couldn't keep up with her as she turned behind, losing sight of her attack target and stiff.

Opportunity - Sophia built up her magic while thinking and made a blow all over her body. I understand from magic that I am Earthcrash, a subordinate magic guide of the local attributes - the orga finally sank.

Silvi also easily avoids Auga attacks and destroys them through a series of attacks. In addition, Nestor responded while preventing attacks and destroyed them with additional support from Radi… but further demons came from the stairs leading up. It's "Blind Attacker," a serpent just like earlier, and the number is this again three.

Sophia and the others immediately set out to intercept - immediately after, signs from behind. There was a guy out there, too, footsteps approaching here from downstairs.

"I'll do it."

With words I pull out my sword. Shortly after Sophia and the others confirmed that they were responding without difficulty to the 'blind attacker', an orga emerged from the stairs.

He released a 'holy shot' earlier, firstly shooting through its right leg. As soon as possible, the aug becomes stiff. Lady released "Firelance" without putting her hair in there for a while. The flame wraps a temporary aug... and the demon still advances toward us.

That's where I confront you directly from the front. As he moves the luxuriously swinging stick down his body to the side and avoids it, he jumps into his pocket and releases a poke at his heart area. This is the magic guide 'thunderbolt', a spike that, as the name suggests, contains thunder.

The blow aimed at the steeple hits brilliantly, and Auga shivers his body with a victory. Immediately after pulling out his sword and taking a step back, Auga lost her power and fell - doomed.

"Don't stand there with your back guard."

says Lady. I realize the battle between Sophia and the others is over when I look back.

Thought they might pry, but Lady didn't ask any more because of the fighting... so we move on further up.

Think about it on the road. Sofia, Silvi, and Lady and the others are able to handle the auga. To think from here, I think we have reached a level where we can at least counter the demons present in the castle of the next five great demons.

In the game, the Five Demons had a mechanism by which the abilities of the remaining Demons would increase with each destruction... that is, wasting time doing sub-events and so on did not change the strength of the Five Demons. But now that it has become a reality, there will be just a time limit. If the abilities of the Five Demons were to increase with each passing of time, only fellow characters, starting with the fast-growing Sofia, would be able to counter it.

And the information I got from Eina and the others that the human side is moving a lot under the water... there may be a battle with the Five Demons soon, but if it's what we're capable of right now, it's probably okay - when we were thinking about it that way, we ran into demons again. I went into battle.

Eventually, we reach the top floor of the tower. The hall, illuminated with maximum light intensity, gave a much more idle impression.

"This is..."

Lady looks around the room and squeals. The room was also scattered with beds, bookshelves and other furniture used for life, so the wizard definitely lived here. There's just something puzzling about it. Bookshelves, wooden desks, etc. exist, but what was in them are very common objects such as potions and novels... I don't see any research material, etc.

If I tell you, I don't know who lived here.

"I don't think you want me to know you exist."

I shrug and move my eyes to the bookshelf. None of this is commonly in circulation and is not novel.

"... that's weird"

That's where Lady speaks out.

"Assuming the Demons pushed against this tower... there shouldn't be that much time before they perceive it and escape. Isn't it tough to erase the trace of who lived here beautifully?

"We knew the demon raid, didn't we?

Sophia speaks as she looks around the room. But Lady tilts her neck.

"I knew... I doubt how. No, is the very speculation that the Demons have carried out the raid wrong? But the demon was nesting..."

I also think in my head...... was there still a demon tribe living here pretending to be a wizard? Assuming that's the case, I'm satisfied… I listen to Lady while I look at the books on the bookshelf.

"And I have another question. With no demons here, what were the demons protecting this place for?

Everyone is silent on the mystery he emits. I took my eyes off the bookshelf and made one recommendation to him.

"I know you want to solve your doubts... but it looks like Lady doesn't have what she's looking for"

"It will be...... but then at least you want to solve this inexplicable situation"

"I agree. I think the wizard is ready and has left the tower, but there may be something left... Let's find it."

So each begins to act. That said, the only place that seems to have information while in a large space is a bookshelf or desk drawer. So nature and its people are biased against the place.

"... Luon, what are you doing?

Sylvie asked me a question when she looked at me with a book in her hand from the shelf.

"You're not reading a book, are you?

"For example, there's a letter pinched between the books… it's an occasional case in a novel or something"

"Oh, sure."

Silvi takes the book in the same way. I'll take another book and see if it's pinched, while I check the desk for Lady and Nestor.

Looks like she's checking whether it's a double bottom. But the work was finished sooner than we were looking at the shelves without results... then.

"Ah..."

Sophia is the voice. From the book she has if you look at it, something fell off.

That's a blue note. Apparently, it's a letter.

"That's a big win."

I come up to Sofia and pick up the letter as I raise my voice. The ladies are approaching, and I'll check the note.

The seal is cut. Probably something I forgot to take away...... I feel a little sorry for, but take out the contents. Two pieces of white paper. It's just that the paper is so messed up, there are signs of it being read over and over again.

Check the text. So, an amazing letter popped in.

"Dear My Disciple, to Richard"

"-Richal!?"

I raised my voice. The name Callan told me about the fight we fought together.

"Do you know him?

Lady asks. In contrast, I shook my head from left to right.

"I've never met him. But I've heard the name on the journey… I think it's the same person because there was some information called a wizard"

"Does that mean we were based here before we went around?"

Sophia looks around the hall and says: I think as I put in my "maybe" consent.

Richard's behavior was questionable... but is he a demon who betrayed the Demon King? Somehow I thought you were the same reincarnator as me... but no, I still don't have much information to conclude.

The contents of the letter are devoid of any other love such as the teacher labors Richard. I wondered for a moment if it was even encrypted, but I couldn't confirm it, so it was just a letter for us.

But I got some very interesting information… I thought in my heart that it was worth coming here more than I've been trying to find out about him for a long time.
