Sword of the Philosopher

Seeing that demon, I often remembered a name when it came out in the game.

"... Behemoth, is it?

"Huh? What now?

Sophia asks, but this one says "nothing".

Yeah, I thought a giant beast, Behemoth, would suit you to observe through the demon of use. A giant beast with four legs, covered with hard skin as if even armored. Plus two horns on the head...... instant, goooooo and just roaring. This is definitely the source of the sound.

The place is far from where we are... walking through a valley of sight, and if you want to do it, you can fight it.

I look at the badge. I'm not responding. Is it because it's still too far away?

"... there's a giant demon around there. I checked with the demon."

I say with my fingers indicating the general position. Then Sophia narrowed her eyes,

"Do you want to fight?

"Um, I don't think we can win... but you probably won't get a martial arts medal if you knock it down..."

Looks like he's just walking, and so far... when I tried to say that, the user demon noticed something strange.

Or from the woods located on the upper side of the valley - suddenly, a wizard appeared.

And not one or two people. Look, a dozen people...

"Let it go!

Immediately after someone screams, the wizards use magic simultaneously. Fireballs, lightning strikes, and ice arrows. Everything is poured down to the giant beast.

Shortly after, Goaaaaa - and I heard an awesome noise. It's not the roar of a giant beast, or the sound of vibrations. By the use of magic, it was a roar.

"Hey, what...!?"

Romilda looks out for surprises. Sophia watched the valley...... eventually, the smoke went up.

Nevertheless, there is no change in the giant beast to be confirmed with the demon of use. Looks intact.

"I unleashed magic from the woods up there on a giant demon."

Explained, Sophia put her hand on her mouth,

"The warriors are working together, does that mean?

"No... maybe not"

If you look closely, the wizards dress somewhere similar or closer. It just doesn't feel like serving a king in court. Something like a unit of private wizards?

Perhaps it meant that some nobleman or luxury neighborhood would join the angel feast and put in the power to defeat the great demon. I don't know what martial arts will be like by that... but no, on a feast like this, not martial arts, show your strength by defeating powerful demons, or something? Don't stick to that as a reason.

"Dear Luon, how do you like it?

"... if the giant demon has the means to attack. The human side seems intent on using magic from the top of the valley, at least not being attacked."

More roaring. The idea of intermittent use of magic and defeating giant beasts?

Eventually, the surrounding valleys and forests also become noisy. Apparently, the participants in the feast were interested in hearing the noise.

"... let's get a little closer together."

To these words, Sophia and Romilda nodded silently.

Well, we started moving through the valley... but in the meantime, we also encounter demons. Kicking them all together, one man of interest approached me.

"You're strong, you guys. Are you trying to get somewhere flashy?

"Well, that's the place"

"Well... apparently there are people who want to lead the team and defeat the demons"

Holding a long sword in his iron armor, he spoke as he tried to get near the giant beast with us.

"I can't see what a demon looks like, but I can imagine the voice of a demon."

Wizards use magic to attack giant beasts while men speak. But the demon hasn't moved one thing, and the movement hasn't changed at all.

Originally, the walk was slow, but if you look at the magic and it doesn't make a difference, you may not have any damage.

"But I don't think you'll get a martial arts medal if you take it down,"

This is what Sophia said. I thought you were right, so I guess I have a different purpose - I thought so, but the men disagreed.

"Maybe he knows how to back it up."

"... backgammon?

frowning, the man said with a laugh.

"When you first got the tools, you got an explanation, didn't you? If the tools emit a red color, you won't get a medal."

"Oh, yeah"

"But there are exceptions to that... along with the light, there can be warning sounds. In that case, they'll get a medal if they knock it down."

"... why not?

"The level of demons that light and warnings emit at the same time is just the finest class. I accidentally defeated such a demon, there can be no such thing as a story. That's why if I knocked him out, I would have made sure he got a medal even if he was sending out a warning..."

"I didn't explain it."

"Maybe you didn't envisage a person to challenge the most advanced class of demons in the first place. So I didn't even explain it."

"Hmm, I see... but having that kind of information means someone defeated and demonstrated the finest demons, right?

"Oh. Are you looking at the bulletin board? Your current number one is Dantotsu, right? That seems to be due to the defeat of the finest demons."

... well, you know what? In other words, on the contrary, if you can defeat that class of demons, can you rank higher at once?

This is your chance...... I nodded cocklessly when I saw Sophia. You're talking about doing it.

Gradually approaching the place where the giant beast is… and here's another tip from the warrior.

"There are some of the finest classes of demons in this place... I can't confirm the demons themselves from here, but when it comes to moving through the valley, it's a big four-legged demon"

"You see quite a bit of it?

"Oh, they tell me among the participants to run away without hesitation if this guy is around. How confident or stupid are you to be selling fights to him..."

Well, it's like leading a squad and attacking. Perhaps the person in command thinks there is a chance.

That's how I finally approached you. All right, keep it up - something like that, a warrior pointed up.

"I can go up to the woods from here. Let's see from the top."

... and right. You don't just glance at me from the front.

We tried to keep fighting like this... but if you think about it, can you let the magic fall from the top? So if that doesn't work, I'll confront you from the front again.

I follow the warrior's guide and move up. Here the warrior found another companion and spoke up. So,

"I'm sorry, we're going to have to act differently."

Oh, I don't mind.

The warrior waves. This one says thank you for the "info, thank you" and starts moving through the woods.

Even in the meantime, I can hear you shooting magic in the extension. Watching through the demons of use, the wizards shoot their magic into the giant beasts that are as flat as ever. The wizards pull up if they can't beat them like this... when they make that prediction,

"Then next!

Orders flew. I wonder where the commander is. I observed him through the demon, but I can't find him.

The wizards begin another preparation. Mm-hmm. I started wearing some magic tools.

Now, what are you going to do from here... and here we reach where we can see the giant beast.

"Is that it?"

Sophia squeaks. Romilda seems surprised by its size.

Maybe I can intervene here... and while I'm worried, the wizards are ready.
