Sword of the Philosopher

"- As Lord Luon, you mean you haven't given up yet"

Listening to Gark, I look over the bookshelf.

Libraries present within the academia. I don't even know how many books I have, but that number is so overwhelming with quite a few.

Garc's line ahead in it...... well, you figured out what I was trying to do.

"Lord Luon, isn't it hard for you to stop the magic of the Demon King alone?

"It's just about exploring the possibilities. There's time, so you can check it out."

Garc is silent on these words, and the only sound I make later is the sound of shoes.

Many students are headed to their desks in sight to read books. Being an adventurer's outfit, I naturally stand out, but I basically never come into contact. It helps because I want to avoid any trouble.

I first discovered the literature on demons and demon kings, so I begin to read... Is it still tough to find a breakthrough from here because this is only a discussion on demons and demon kings that humans have examined?

Sounds like a hard feeling.

I can hear Gark if you've seen my insides. This one doesn't have to snort.

"I can't help it... but I don't know if I can handle us who are human."

"It's the devil king's whole body."

"That's also true... like the battle ahead, I was wondering if there could be a way to defeat the measures the Demons had planted on the earth"

"If Lord Luon had, how would he have been?

In response to Gark asking, I answer with a glance at the text of the open book.

"Making a magic comparison directly from the front with the Demon Clan is just... or if magic is activated, it's going to be a critical situation, so there's only one way to keep it down."

"What we do against the Demon King is we plant it from the beginning. Preventing magic activation itself is what Lord Luon found difficult. '

Most of all... I roar and still speak.

"Countermeasures... if the demon clan I ran into was up to something, I'm fine, but my people are in danger."

"You're a lot adamant about countermeasures."

"... somehow, I'm able to overwhelm the Demon Clan for basic combat, but some of my people are. I can't handle the sudden."

That's it, I shrugged my shoulder.

"Well, about half the time, there's a desire to do more."

"It would be enough as it is, but it's a lot greedy."

I laugh bitterly at Gark's words.

"But that kind of mood matters... Lord Luon, if that's the case, I have an idea too"

"Thoughts?"

"Uhm. Demonic measures...... we need the right kind of magic to immediately counter a magic formation as massive as the other day's battle"

"Oh, I know that"

"Humans have less magic than demons and spirits. Still, we are able to counter it thanks to, for example, magic technology. The art of countering with less magic...... it compensates for individual power by bringing it further into a mass battle. Lord Luon is in an extremely exceptional position. '

"Yeah, I know that too"

"But tough to fight against the magic formations planted by the Demons. In the first place, humans are less capable of judging closely the magic engraved in the earth. You can't use a method like ours more than you can fight without analyzing it first. '

The more I hear about it, the more challenges it's all about... I guess I should leave that to the Garcs?

'But it is. The magic of Lord Luon is considerable from my point of view… I can use this magic power and apply it to construct a method that even Lord Luon can confront instantly'

Oh, that's a lot of hope.

'Though I can't do it right away because there are two things I need for it'

"I don't mind. So, how do you do that?

Gark talked to me after a little silence.

"The biggest obstacle is that Lord Luon does not possess the powers of magic analysis possessed by spirits and others."

"Oh, I know that"

"We can do something similar to ours with the power of Lord Luon, as long as we resolve that point, rather than do something about it…"

"What exactly do I do?

Lord Luon has a way of producing demons, right?

"Oh."

"You just have to apply it and produce the Spirit dedicated to Lord Luon"

... Hey, I just said something hell.

"It is nearly impossible for Lord Luon himself to acquire the ability to analyze magic beyond being a human being. But not if it's the spirits that you've created. If I or Raefin teach me how to analyze it, it's possible to fight it."

"Let it be, do you produce the Spirit with my power...?

"With Lord Luon's strength, it's not impossible."

"Can't you be a demon?

"The demon of use will only listen to the commands of beings who use magic. There would be no more point in being a demon of use than Lord Luon does not possess the ability to analyze '.

- The use of demons and spirits is the same as being a mass of magic, but it can be decidedly different. Is that willful or not?

There are other differences, but some wizards in human history in the past have created awesome useless demons capable of fighting spirits, so depending on how they do it, they become a force capable of fighting demons. However, the user demon is only the user demon, beyond moving based on the idea of the creator without a will.

"Ri, I get the logic... it's not that easy to produce, is it? And no matter how magical I was, I meant to produce the Spirit itself."

'I thought I said earlier I had two things I needed. To make up for Lord Luon's allegations. "

Block my words, Gark speaks.

"What we need is, first, a being that teaches us analytical skills. I don't have a problem with this because I have Raifin. And the other is the thing that hoards the magic of Lord Luon '

"Snuggle up?"

"The Spirit maintains his body by magic. That amount is quite something from a human being. You don't have to produce spirits all the time, but you have to twist out the magic that creates and sustains them. '

"Oh, okay. Does that mean you need something to keep your magic buildup in order to appear and maintain the Spirit?"

"Nothing."

"Is it easy to find something like that?

"I have a candidate... I'm working with the spirits now, but there was one interesting story in it"

"What's that?

"Angel Artifacts... Apparently, tools exist, to hoard the magic of angels"

- There would be no more creation to accumulate human magic than having just the power to hold the magic of an angel.

"I mean, I'll look for it."

"Let me find out where the artifact is. Lord Luon, enter into the task of producing the Spirit. '

"It's easy to say..."

"You should hear from Raifin and the others about the neighborhood."

Well yeah...... I close the book with a snort.

"All I do is listen to the spirits."

"I don't know. I'll work with you."

It's getting bigger... Maybe it's natural to say so because it's about fighting the Demons.

When I leave the library, I head to where Sophia and the others are. Generating the Spirit...... I don't know if that will succeed, but I didn't seem to have time in this academy.
