Sword of the Philosopher

By the time we arrived in the woods, we were celebrating the night. Going into the woods, wondering if it would be enough to go beyond the middle of the night if it was bad. Is the demon asleep or is there a lot less sign? If it's what Gark used to say, there shouldn't be anything like attacking me even if I'm awake.

The question is, where can I go to see Garc... but when I first thought I was going straight, suddenly the magic drifted from the direction of progress.

"I see you've noticed our presence."

"Sounds like it. I'm getting nervous."

Raefin says. I walked in the direction of magic - eventually, when I visited here before, I fought the Garc, in an open place where I could see the mountain path.

The magic is interrupted here, so I guess you mean wait here. I'll look around somehow, but it's a lot darker because it's only moonlight. I waited a little while using the magic of the lights, and a garc appeared from behind the woods on the side of the mountain path.

"Do you need my help to visit this place again?

"I've come to talk to you. This time, we have company."

"You're the queen of silves."

Raifin comes forward with words.

"Nice to meet you, Master Gark."

'Um, I can't particularly blame you for coming here in sneak before. Let me explain what's going on. "

"Yes... Dear Luon, how well do you understand Mr. Garc?

"There are enough conditions to defeat the Demon King."

"Then can I tell you the same information as I do?

"Right."

Agreed, Raefin speaks out. I left it to her that things would go smoother than I would talk... and when she finished talking, Gark turned his gaze to me.

"You mean you didn't tell me everything before"

"Well, I didn't think you'd accept the reincarnation story."

'I see. If I did say something without such a clap, I might have had my suspicious eye on it too... but is it the magic of the Demon King'

Gark narrows his eyes and asks me.

"What is the purpose of the Demon King?

"I don't know because there wasn't a scenario in the story where the Demon King conquered the continent... but some Demons said they would collapse this continent and create paradise for the Demons. But the Demon King never mentioned the purpose directly"

'I see. But do you think we're keeping our mouths shut?

"I think the ultimate goal is probably the divine spirit. Rather, it's possible that they're standing around doing something about the Garcs."

"Hmm, well... is that the preparation phase now?"

"Probably."

When he answers, Gark asks me what he thinks.

'So you've got two problems to deal with, huh?

"Oh. I mean measures against magic and how to defeat the Demon King... but the means to defeat the Demon King, I think about it for once"

To my words, Garc and Raefin looked surprised.

"How do you do that?

"- First of all, if you use mighty magic, the Demon King himself is greatly enhanced, making attacks other than the blood muscles of the wise hardly universal. If I concentrated my efforts on Sofia, if I could do something about the kings of the demons, I could handle them, but I can't do this anymore."

"You must have someone like Sophia."

Raefin says. I nodded small,

"Oh. On top of that... create a weapon with the power to defeat the Demon King and give it to the bloodstream"

"A weapon?

I snort - there is an important factor in the game called Sage's Blood Muscle, but instead there is no such thing as a legendary sword that destroyed the Demon King or a weapon. For once, there exists a treasure sword with the power of exorcism in a certain country, but it was never available in the game.

The fact that you don't have the weapons you need to defeat the Demon King means you can create and use weapons to fill a hole in the difference in power. Most importantly, now that it's a reality, we need the right amount of skill to handle weapons with that much power, so we need to get them stronger.

"Ideally enough to defeat the Demon King in one blow, but it could be hard to get there"

I shrug my shoulders while I explain to Rayfin and Gark.

"In my training years, I was also creating weapons, and as a result of various attempts and errors... I came to the conclusion that in theory it was possible to create a weapon capable of destroying the Demon King at once. It's just a theory. Just enough power to defeat the Demon King...... I mean that's all it takes to have magic. There is a question as to whether there are materials that can withstand it."

Any material on the game could have been the most powerful weapon, but now that it has become a reality, there are limits to the magic that can be held by the material.

"Materials,"

"Oh. With materials that can hold enormous magic, we can accomplish it"

Well, we'll have to do something with the worst material we have in our possession... then Garc responded 'OK'. I think I have an idea - I suddenly changed my mind here.

"- Is there a way against mighty magic?

"At least I don't think I can handle it alone."

'... I see. I have a plan for you. "

"What's that?

When I asked back, Garc laughed.

'- One confirmation before I say it, but did you test the magic that exists underground?

"The King of Gnomes."

"Then I'll do a little research."

"Is that true?

'Oh. Hands come up with quite a few, so you'll be able to deal with them'

comforting words. But there was a continuation of Garc's story.

'But it is. There's a good chance I won't be able to handle it alone. "

"What do you mean?

"The Demon King is using the power of the five great demons, his belly heart, to activate magic. I may not be able to deal with these demons alone."

"- Then you only have one answer."

Raefin says. That's where I understood too.

"I mean... help other divine spirits?

"Uhm. But when it comes to moving directly to convince me, it will be a commotion, and so will the Demon King's side. In the first place, they are not the kind of people I persuade to snort honestly."

"... I mean, it"

Gark laughs at my words again. Is that what the grin was earlier about?

"You can use your power to yield. Just like me. '

"It's easy for you to say... it's pretty tough, huh?

But I'm the only one who can handle it.

"... ok. Is that supposed to mean convincing the god spirit?

"Other spirits are less temperamental than I am. It would be quicker to subordinate them rather than persuade them '

It's a big layer...... no well, I guess I can't help talking about it.

"Really...... so what else do you need to know about the magic measures of the Demon King?

"As long as we get the help of other god spirits, we'll be fine. I'll take care of it. I won't imitate anything stupid like being exposed to the Demon King's side. Let them trust you. '

"If there's a problem, I want you to contact me right away..."

'Fine. Then I'll leave you alone. "

The moment I said, bong in front of Garc, and something appeared.

He was a palm-sized puppy.

"Huh... what is this"

"It's me. I don't have any combat skills, but now I can talk to you."

I'm coming closer, so I'll give it a ride in the palm of my hand. It feels like I've turned down the gark, but my crushed eyes are a lot adorable... something cute.

"Normally I can enter into your body, just like the spirits I contract. There's got to be nothing out of the way. '

"Okay. Thanks."

At that moment, the child Garc disappeared. Here I tell Gark.

"As for magic, for one thing, as a favor to Garc... and secondly, a means to defeat the Demon King, is my plan okay?

'Your way would be fine. There are candidates for material aspects. And the magic to inject would be better'

... I see what you're trying to say. Waiting for words, Gark said even more.

"If you can obey the Divine Spirit, let us pour our strength into the sword. In addition to the power of the Descendants of the Wise, the power of the Spirit and of our Divine Spirit… will be exactly the best trump card against the Demon King '
