Sword of the Philosopher

Spirit of the Holy Tree

- The next day.

Me and Sophia. More Eina and Fili - in addition, Richard, who serves as the demon, gathered and began moving towards the end of the west.

The demons that Richard serves mimic dragons. It travels on its back… it can travel quite comfortably to use barriers and prevent wind. And the speed is pretty good, and at this rate, we're going to be able to get there in a few days, even as we pinch a break on the way.

"... if you can do the sword, is it finally a showdown with the Demon King"

Sophia opens her mouth. And I'm the boss.

"Demon King's movements are currently restricted thanks to the Garcs... in the meantime, we have to do everything we can"

"You mean you can't get distracted until the end, though"

"Exactly"

I'm replying, and I'm shifting my gaze to Fili. Sit back and look restless.

"What's up?

"Oh, no. Well, I was wondering if I could come in."

"Phili himself has had the experience of destroying the Five Demons. I think you can be confident."

"But that's only with your help"

It's humble...... is Sophia and Eina with you around?

All of Sophia and the others would not have thought they had reached this point on their own. Because there are more limits to individual power than being human, albeit the blood muscle of a wise man... which is why he has a strong will to train himself even more to fight the Demon King.

"- Master Luon, what should we do in the future?

Sophia asks further.

"Of the three of us, someone is going to hold the sword... what do we do then?

"You only have to train. Sophia and the others should be able to reach a level where they can destroy the Demon King if they work out somewhat from the moment."

The aftermath of simultaneously destroying two of the five great demons made the story unfold faster. The demons that appear in the castle of the Demon King are definitely the demons who were acting with the Demon King... then it may be a little difficult at this stage.

When it comes to following as closely as I can, it's the home of the Demon King. I'm going to make sure it doesn't make things go out of shelter, but you better be ready.

"We ask King Canaan to cooperate in producing the sword. Utilizing the material gained from the Spirit Corona, man and Spirit unite their power to produce a sword… surely it will be a force that can counter the Demon King, so it's up to Sophia and the rest to work hard"

"Improve so you can handle it"

An expression that also echoes Eina and Fili in Sofia's words. Besides, I get a convincing look and ask Richard.

"Let's go down to the right place and take a break today"

"Okay. At this rate, it won't be long before we get there."

"Okay...... so, Garc"

"What's up?

Child Garc appears on the shoulder.

"As for the Spirit Corona..."

"We didn't interact so much, we can't talk too much."

"I agree."

Raifin appeared beside Sophia and opened his mouth.

"The Spirit Corona herself was distancing herself from the other spirits."

"Any reason?

"To protect the Holy Tree... is it? Are you saying that you have avoided unnecessary contact and prevented corners from standing?"

Hmm, is the discussion easy or difficult? It won't start until we make contact.

"By the way, are you friendly?

"What do you think... I'm having trouble judging, but I'm never aggressive."

That's reassuring... but I don't think we're going to be fighting this period.

There was a lot of anxiety, but I decided not to think deeply until I arrived.

In a few days, we'll be at the end of the west with no obstacles. An isolated island that existed separately from the continent and the sea - an island covered with trees, such as the wooded Tai Ancient Forest.

"That's spectacular."

Looking down from above, Richard says. I will discover the coast while agreeing in my heart.

"Richard, over there"

Copy that.

Start descending. At the same time, I feel the magic that crosses my skin.

Perhaps the power emitted by the Holy Tree… the deep magic that surrounds all things. Signs that I have felt all sorts of magic on my skin so far, but not like any of them, even motherhood.

"Amazing......"

Sophia squeaks. Eventually, when I stepped down to the coast, I saw a path straight into the woods.

"Richard will be waiting for you here."

"Okay. Be careful."

I snorted at his words, leading Sophia and the others down to the coast.

As I approached the entrance, I could feel even darker magic. The roads have slightly poor visibility by the trees and little sunlight. You need some light magic.

"Well, let's move on."

After I use the magic of lighting, I walk out to lead the way. Sophia and the others continued in the rear, leaving Richard to go into the woods.

Zawazawa, and the leaves of the tree can also be heard shaking. I think it's more like a demon than this, but it doesn't show up at all.

"That's terribly creepy."

Fili opens her mouth. He lays his hand on the pattern of the sword, but eventually he realized there was no sign of the demon attacking him, or slowly let go of his hand.

"Garc, does the Spirit Corona know the situation on the continent?

When I ask the lid, Gark appears on his right shoulder and answers.

'You'll know. The fact that demons do not appear in one place may indicate that there is no hostility'

"Why did we visit here in the meantime..."

'You just wouldn't grasp it that far. If the Spirit Corona had dispatched spirits, subordinates, etc., the Spirits would have noticed. "

Then is it enough to interpret that I came to ask for cooperation during the battle?

There's not a single battle in the woods, and we keep moving through the woods. I couldn't just be alert, but I could only understand that there was still no hostility, so the gait itself is quick for the price.

In the meantime, we finally arrive in the heart of the island. There was a large tree.

It's assimilated to the forest and it's huge, but it doesn't feel overwhelming. It's just that it's definitely emitting much darker magic than the rest of the trees.

- You're finally here.

That's when I heard a voice. If you look, there was one girl standing at the root of the great tree.

A woman in a white robe. Do you look like a late teenager or something? Brilliant white to the hair, it stands out a lot in this place where natural greenery spreads.

Should I describe my face as cuter than prettier? Weirdly loving, yet still releasing a strong presence.

"After the big fight, I didn't think I'd make it anymore."

However, I get the impression that the tone is somewhat stabbing...... somewhat high-flying.

"You, Spirit Corona?

"Yes, it is."

The Spirit responds to Sophia's inquiry - Corona answers.

"As a matter of fact, I don't have a name... if that's how you call it, I guess I'll conform"

- Long time no see, Corona.

That's where Garc speaks out. As soon as he did, Corona opened her eyes.

"Oh Garc. You look so cute."

'This is a split. I'm here to talk to you this time.'

"Yeah...... but do you need my power?

'Whatever. It would not have been strange to have come sooner, but the situation overlapped and this was the time. "

"Oh, yeah. But coming at this stage doesn't seem necessary."

'Not quite. Rather, it will be at the core of this battle'

"... eh?

Corona speaks up with interest. It's kind of good to eat, so it seems like you could get on with the conversation.

'Let me explain the situation to you. Lord Luon, can I talk to you about you too?

"Oh, I don't mind"

"You seem to have some complicated circumstances. As far as I'm concerned, I don't have any information about you."

"Bye -"

Garc started explaining to Corona.
