Sword of the Philosopher

The next morning, me and Sophia leave the heavens in the wake of Nell's transfer. Its purpose is the investigation of the 'Angel Demon', the scouts of the fallen angel Rostaldo. Well, if we meet, it'll be a dozen eighty-nine fights, so we'll be gathering intelligence on our strengths and destroying them.

"Dear Luon, do you know why the existence of a celestial demon moves, etc?

Sophia asks on the road. I thought about it for a second.

"According to Mr. Devals' story, the Heavenly Devil will be scattered all over the continent for some activity. I don't know what that purpose is, but if you're going to plant something in the earth, you can't overlook it, so it might be easier to beat them before they do something. If the goal is to invade the heavens, are you ready to go to heaven?"

"Ready, sir?

Sophia listening back.

"Fallen angels can't enter the heavens... so you mean ready to let them in"

"It's my muscle to think so, and Mr. Devals said that the line was thick... just"

"Just?"

against Sophia tilting her neck, I gazed,

"He's the one with the verse that turned the villager into a jewel. I can't deny the possibility of blinding myself to do what I'm supposed to do."

- It was also unclear what exactly Rostaldo was going to do about the information on the reincarnator Alan. He hasn't gotten much more information than he was a soldier himself. Therefore, we need to find out which is the fate of Rostaldo's actions.

"I'm pretty sure we're about to invade the heavens. So what are we going to do by the time we get there... it's our immediate goal to be clear there."

Even so, you probably can't catch the Heavenly Devil and interrogate him or anything. Whether or not Rostaldo is taught the true purpose in the first place...... I just have to do it.

That's how we got there - a meadow area about as close to town and slightly off the street. According to Nell, this is where it hits the northeastern part of the continent, and you can see that the meadows continue a long way without high mountains or anything else around them.

It's not popular around here either... Nell tells me to wait here and we stand in the middle of the meadow.

"What was Alan's last battle?"

Sophia asks a question to the lid. I remember Devals.

"According to Mr. Alan's information, the angels began to look into the trend as they found that Rostaldo's subordination had been in motion since shortly after the downfall of Villeser. It was the Heavenly Demon who discovered the result. encounter was a complete coincidence, and the angel side took the form of a half-empty"

"The damage would have been considerable too..."

"In fact, it looks like he's lost quite a bit of power in this clash in his previous life. I don't think that's going to happen this time though"

"On what grounds?

Sophia asks. Besides, I...

"That's what Mr. Devals is trying to figure out. If you want to move the Heavenly Devil just like you did in your previous life, you can deal with it enough even if you're ready to be ambushed... something like that"

"I see, I get it"

While we were talking, I created a demon and dispatched him to town... and discovered a group of mercenaries trying to get out of town here.

"... mercenaries are on their way over here. Probably an angel on my side."

After a while, the mercenaries approached us.

"Master Luon-Maddin and Mr. Sophia-Rattle."

That's what I told him. A man of leadership. a brown-haired man wearing iron armor. At first glance it would be a plain impression, but a disguise that would make it less noticeable.

Hmm, the fact that I called Sophia by her pseudonym means she doesn't know she's a princess or she's telling me to pass by her pseudonym... well, it's not something that's very widespread, so is this okay?

"Confirmation, angel... right?

To this question, the leader nodded.

"My name is Shen. We appreciate your help this time."

The angels in the rear also show their gratitude. The number of people is five, including Shen. I don't know how strong he is, but Devals instructed him to send him. It would mean enough fighting power.

In the past life, the damage appeared to be enormous because it was in the form of an ambush, but if this is the case... the strength of the target is also unknown. Are you forbidden to be alarmed?

"We investigated this perimeter beforehand and found that there was some distortion in the magic"

Shen speaks out. I frowned,

"Distortion?"

"Even so, it has no real impact. The door of the heavens that we angels create… is the perfect point to make it."

"I mean, you think the enemy thinks from these places to heaven?

In response to this point, Shen shook his head from left to right.

"At this stage, we're only talking about possibilities."

- But you're just questioning this fight. That's true about Rothald, and that's true about Alan. Especially about Alan. He's got an edge on Romilda's words... no, let's just leave the question at first. You might find something in this investigation.

"Other people are currently investigating the surroundings"

Plus Shen goes on. Hmm, are there other angels?

"So far I don't see any enemies-like existence. The point where the enemies mentioned by Master Devals emerge is just a little further away from here, currently being monitored by others, but there is no movement"

"What do we do?

"Please wait in the nearest town for a moment. In some cases, you may stay there for a few days."

So it could be a long fight...

"Okay. We don't mind."

"Come here, then"

Show by hand is the road to town. We snort and follow the angels side by side.

"You have a lot to worry about because you don't know"

Sophia exposes her anxiety. Whereas I...

"Yeah, but at least I think the situation is better for us than it was harmless in the fight against the Villagers."

"I hope so"

She also looks like she has a vague inner anxiety...... maybe she has a feeling about something. That this battle cannot be a glimmer.

Then he enters the city and is told by the angels to enter the inn. From here on out, things change depending on how the enemy comes out, so it's possible to wait anywhere.

If something happens elsewhere... well, Nell and Devals will take care of it around there, and maybe they'll call me when they do.

That's why I had to wait until the enemy arrived... after noon, in the time period before the evening, a change occurred.

Shen came to the room and said something.

"I discovered an unfamiliar existence. Please accompany us."

Finally...... I'm pretty sure it first appeared due.

I snorted, left the inn with Sophia, out of town.

"It is a being that is carrying signs of a demon, but its appearance is very similar to that of a human being"

Apparently there is no doubt in the presence of the celestial demon that Devals was talking about.

"But the behavior is strange."

Shortly after that word, there was something like a blast from afar.

"This is, if..."

"Let's hurry!

Sophia's voice. I nodded and ran like I had been bounced.
