Sword of the Philosopher

The Road Followed

While we are concerned about the battle in the south, we finally reach where the Demon King will visit. The name is Milibados Plains - but it looks wilderness, to be honest.

Tough enough land to grow less trees, less crops, etc. However, since this is also the centre of the northern part of the continent, streets have been built and become transit points for heading south and east. However, there are no large towns on the plains. In the first place, the north is sparsely populated because the land is also thin, and because of the choice of where the crops grow and settle in it, this area is also just dotted with some accommodation towns.

The Demon King hasn't reached it yet, but only slightly different. According to the user demon, Nostoa, the last of the five demons, is in the lead and marching.

"... the Nostor is approaching us first"

The Demon King is behind it - probably Nostor himself is moving to defeat the dragons.

"That's a good number as an army... but I guess it's better as a quality. The dragons, though, should be able to deal with it without bitterness. The problem is the Five Demons Nostores."

"Which one will defeat you?

It was Oldia who inquired.

"The power of Luon would be an easy victory..."

"Hmm, I can't say enough about that."

"Why?

"Nostor should have used the power of the sage in his possession as a barrier when he left his castle. It's not a level where an attack doesn't work, but it reduces power considerably."

- Like Ledras, he uses the power of the wise man as a barrier. When I was in the castle, I used it to strengthen my ability to attack, but if it stays the last of the five demons and comes down south with the Demon King, I use it as a barrier.

He was also very defensive on the game. However, only the protagonist can deal damage flat, so it's not that hard to destroy if you fight the protagonist as the protagonist. If I hadn't raised him by that battle, I'd see him cry.

"At the point of moving in line with the southern invasion, I was thinking about what to do... well, with my power, I think I can defeat it. It's just gonna take a little while, and in the meantime, is it a problem for a dragon to do it?"

"Because it's the power of my sword? It doesn't work for the Demon King. I don't have a problem using it here."

"Right. If Oldia's blow, a sage's blood muscle, the barrier loses its effect too"

"Fine. Then I'll deal with Nostor."

Oldia declares - I ask Garc next.

"What about the gods?

'I'm already close. Even if the Demon King raids now, he's ready to strike a countermeasure'

"Ok...... I'm waiting while I get my attitude in order to be able to move anytime"

"Umm."

After the reply - once again, Oldia turned her doubts on me.

"What was it like in the story? Haven't heard more about the area."

… it seems to be of great interest. I started talking while I had a game scene in my head.

"The Demon King's assault is a story after the southern invasion, so the flow is much different at this point. First, the Southern invasion event ended, and the last five demons - in reality, you left a nostore. Accompanying it, the Demon King also moves. The human side gets the information and gets ready in a town just north of here."

And then we intercept the Demon King.

"Naturally, we can't beat the demon king whose attacks don't work, and the human side loses. We get to this wilderness... at which time the flow changes if the protagonist is defeating the Five Demons alone and one by one"

"If you're defeating me alone, it was Lord Luon's desired stream."

Gark's words. I nodded quickly.

"If one protagonist is defeating the Five Demons... when he retreats to the wilderness, defeat the last remaining Five Demons because they will be attacked by the protagonists. After that, the Demon King finally appeared. We use magic in this wilderness to try to crumble the continent, but we seal it with the power of the wise men that the hero has acquired from the Five Demons."

"If it's true, you look like you wanted it to flow."

Oldia's words... I shrugged my shoulders against them.

"Another stream is the case of each of the five protagonists defeating the Five Great Demons. In this case, the protagonists who defeated each of the five great demons… Four people, with the exception of Oldia, assemble to face the Demon King. But lost in the first battle. We'll be together until we retreat to this wilderness."

"How is it different from there?

"The five remaining demons emerge first, but Oldia destroys them. Then the Demon King appeared and activated the magic. The protagonists try to stop them, but fail and the continent collapses. Then the Demon King is strengthened, and the heroes all five head to Demon King's Castle."

As for the flow of reality, is the situation close to this pattern? Most of the demon king's movements occurred during the southern invasion.

"... because my presence was not recognized by the Demon King, or because Osamu was the same as the story, I managed to stand around and avoid unpleasant events. If this prevents the magic of the Demon King, I think it would be enough."

You don't have to be modest.

Gark speaks. What does that mean?

"Beginning with Princess Sophia, the faces saved by Lord Luon are bearing fruit. It's a battle with the Demon King, so sacrifices are made... but I think the path we've followed has been very little sacrifice. '

"... it would help if you said so"

Smile and put your head on. I really don't know if this is the best because I can't rewind time like Richard. But as a result of my movements, I think it's a good enough achievement.

"Well, Lord Luon's push forced us to think we're doing less damage to the humans."

"Right."

Oldia is in tune as if she were frightened. At that time, there was a report from a user demon monitoring Nostor.

"... Looks like we're finally here"

"Oh. I'll take care of him. Mr. Luon asks for a demon."

At the same time I nodded, I saw enemy shadows. An army spearheaded by the devil...... the dragon barks and shows the setup to intercept.

At that moment, the demons also roared again, spreading their wings and beginning to storm simultaneously. Demons approaching gnawing from a distance. It is visible that if you storm without measures, you will feed on the dragon's braces, but is it a special attack ready for sacrifice?

"It would mean more than just grasping Mr. Luon's strength from the beginning,"

Open your mouth as Oldia pulls out her sword.

"Possible measures include bringing him into a riot and slowing down this move, while Nostor approaches Mr. Luon and attacks him? It would be the idea that no matter how much power you have, you can fight it more than using barriers that harness the power of the wise."

"Perhaps the area is reasonable as a measure... Resbail"

Generate the Spirit of an Armored Angel. I tell Oldia, looking at the demons coming at a terrible rate.

"Turn Les Bailes to escort. You want Nostor and I to fight what's wrong with the enemy, so let's get in the stream and intercept without having to go against it. Garc, can you tell the dragons not to force it? And if you destroy Nostor, the demons will naturally burst out... and I want to ask you to defeat them."

"Fine."

"As for the visible demons, they rank somewhat higher than the enemies we fought the other day...... but even dragons can handle them adequately. Just be careful, it's more aggressive."

"Then tell him so"

"Oldia, if Nostor approaches me, I need you to approach me and attack me. That would be the way to settle it in a short time."

"I'm also refraining from fighting the Demon King... so it would be a good idea."

Oldia acknowledges. And the devil is finally approaching.

"Then let's go!

With his voice, the battle against the armies of the Five Demonic Nostores began.
