Sword of the Philosopher

The next day, we leave the capital of the Kingdom of Alastin and leave again for the north. Whether it was because we talked about the situation or because the atmosphere when we moved had changed somewhat.

"- So, Mr. Luon. What about the Southern invasion?

Or Kuuza asks a lot. Probably out of curiosity, but as far as I'm concerned, it's a big hassle.

"... I don't know if I can encounter the events of the story, and I haven't decided yet on the circumstances of the Southern invasion. I don't think it's a good idea to have bad stereotypes."

When I made my point, Kuuza breathed a small breath.

"Well yes...... but knowing the circumstances is quite advantageous"

"I agree with that, but we shouldn't rely on it to imitate it."

That's what I opined, Sylvie.

"I can't just rely on him to be strong because Luon grasps it"

"Oh, so is that... ma, no. Let's talk about this."

Apparently it's over...... but

"So, Mr. Luon. Why don't you fight for yourself?"

"... what's the matter abruptly?

"I'm no longer willing to doubt anything more than Mr. Raefin or the Divine Spirit Garc testified. But I'd like to see it once and for all."

... Well definitely, that would be the most interesting part.

"I'll tell you what, demons around there. Then I don't think you're gonna be dealing with them and it doesn't make sense."

"You don't even need to be serious?

"Oh."

"Right..."

Unfortunately Kuuza. I can only laugh bitterly at the way I dropped my shoulder.

I'm interested, too.

Sylvie says too. On the other hand, Sophia doesn't speak out just by looking at this one as a flicker... like Kuza, is there something of interest?

"But, by the way, Luon"

Now Silvi speaks out.

"Actually, I've been developing moves for a long time."

"A move? Oh, what's wrong with that?

"It's not finished, but I'd like you to let me know what you think once you're attacked for how powerful it is."

"Hey."

Calling unexpectedly, Silvi shrugged her shoulders.

"If it doesn't work at all, isn't it great to try the flow of moves?"

... Somehow, the atmosphere with my people is changing, but not in a bad direction?

Well, if it comes from Silvi or Kuuza, it also means to tear it up...... or is the move that Silvi is developing more of an 'instant' of unique moves? If that's the case, I think it's too early to learn.

Sophia is laughing a little when she hears about our exchange... and when she thinks about saying something if it looks the same in the future, Kuuza tells me again.

"Mr. Luon, as an appointment, where are you headed, Salamander's residence or academia?

"... we need to take a little detour to the capital... Sophia, what do you think?

"I don't mind going directly to my address."

Well you will...... and Kuuza opened his mouth here.

"So, you're going to fight the Divine Spirit Feus, right?

"I don't even know if I'm going to fight... right"

"So, he said the place where the dwelling and the divine spirit are located is close by"

"From what I've heard about Raefin, it seems so."

That's all I said, and I figured out what Kuuza was trying to say.

"Kuuza, that means -"

"No, look. The Spirit Garc is divine, and we have yet to see the Spirit itself. I wanted to see what it was like... and then I thought I'd see what Mr. Luon was capable of."

"Hey."

Speaking up, Khuza says dissatisfied.

"Because you're strong enough to obey the Divine Spirit, aren't you? It's okay to hide it at the moment because there are demon kings out there, but naturally you want to know more about how powerful they are, right?

... I would if I were in Kuuza's shoes, and I don't think I can help but show interest... by the way, Silvi is keeping silent, but showing signs of being in tune with Kuuza's suggestion.

And Sophia would be interested to see that there is nothing like putting a horizontal spear in him, although it feels like an oro on Kuza's suggestion.

"... it's just that I can't decide that on my own."

"What do you mean?

"The dwelling of Azua the Water King, for example, was a submarine cave. You can't follow a place like that, naturally.

"Yeah, well, yeah."

"And the residence of Feus...... if it was near the residence of Salamander, wouldn't it be a volcano or something? Look, there was an active volcano near the residence."

"Don't you know Mr. Gark? If it's safe, why don't we go?

Looks like he's willing to follow me everywhere.

"... Garc"

"Umm."

Kid Gark appears on my right shoulder and starts talking to Kuza.

'Surely with the knowledge I possess, there must be no demons around Feus'

"Is that for any reason?

'I don't know. Maybe he just wants to avoid the presence of demons.'

"Anyway, without the demon appearance... doesn't it seem like there's a problem with us going?

"I guess."

"Okay, then let's go"

"It's too easy to decide."

I accidentally put in a scratch. But Kuza doesn't look bad either.

"Say what. Don't you think it's important to grasp the power of your people?

I'm full of shit... and I'm not even trying to hide it.

"Ha... it's no use telling you not to come, is it? But if you find out it's dangerous, you'll have to leave immediately."

"Okay."

Khuza ringing his fingers. I sighed and watched.

Reach the lodging town by digesting your appointments well that day as well. So I took a seat at the inn and dined at the tavern.

"... it's kind of dark in the atmosphere"

Sophia says. Will Kuuza and Silvi agree, too, or look around the store.

She's right, there are people who drink, but their faces are uniformly dark. I don't think we ever talked about a demon appearing around here. It's uncomfortable.

"Ask me."

When I speak, I speak to the clerk of the woman who wanted to pass nearby.

"Excuse me...... may I have a moment?

"Yes."

Here I drop my voice,

"... could there be a rub or something around this town?

To inquire, the woman shook her body in a freak. Hmm, sounds pretty sure.

I pull out the memory of the game here. Thinking about the current location and the time of the scenario, I think about the disturbances around here.

"I may not be able to offer it, but I think we should leave here tomorrow"

stated by the woman. Then now Sophia asks the question.

"What do you have?

The woman made it hard to say the first thing to the word, but eventually she started speaking.

"I'm a burglar. People get hurt when they show up out of nowhere. There are no casualties now, but everyone says the damage was done not so far away…"

"Burglar, huh?"

Silvi mentions the woman as she puts her head on.

"Are there bandits or something in the neighborhood?

"No, not a single one of those stories.

- That's all I heard, and one possibility came to my mind. That should have been the case with guild work in the game.

If this is all it takes, it's simply that the trigger was created to get involved in such events. But I was heartily surprised. Because...

"... is there anything on my face?

If I noticed, I was looking at Sylvie. I say "nothing" and take my gaze off.

Yes, this is something to do with her...... This guild request was also an event where we could get information on Sylvie's vengeful opponent, and I was surprised not least by this tour.
