Sword of the Philosopher

"Even the Demon King candidate naturally has a big difference in tactics, etc. Amel, for example, is easy to understand, but even a swine rush. Widels looked at the big picture one way or the other, and it felt like stacking small fights rather than big fights and winning, etc."

"And Croix, by the way?

"I'm the weak one. Do you feel like using anything you use?"

Croix laughs bitterly.

"So, as for Bizel... because of his level of caution, apparently those who lead the team, starting with the commander, have been given something."

"Something?

"This is it."

Croix takes something out of his nose and shows it to us. It's like a bracelet.

"Simply put, this is a simple detector"

Is it like radar?

"The way Bizell fights is to constantly gather information on the battlefield and adopt the best strategy. This is an ideal form in war, so it would be great if it could be put into practice, but not so well...... but Bizel thought of using this to take advantage of the fight in a way close to it"

"Using tools... how do you use them?

"In the power of Bizel, that is not so many brave demons who slash and abandon their enemies endlessly. So rather than discovering a commander and setting a goal and defeating him, I think it means making sure that demons and demons are generated by which demons."

Um, I don't know. Sophia spoke first when she tried to tilt her neck.

"Confirmation, do demon generators create habits and traits in demons, etc.?

"That's right. However, that's not where the enemy's real aim would be."

"What do you mean?

"Demons and demons move under basic, generator or commander instructions. In this case, it is the generator who is ordering it directly because it is also large. I felt it in the battle in the fortress, but the opponent can guess what the demon's aim is by figuring out which generator made it."

... you mean if you could capture that movement more than the same demon tribe you command, you could preface and act?

"In fact, in some cases the fortress was like reading this move and attacking it several times. In addition to pushing it off in quantity, Mr. Leon and the others broke into the building and caused very little damage... but when they do the same thing in a showdown, they will be significantly disadvantaged."

"But Croix discovered his weakness."

to this mention. He nodded,

"This tool only captures the magic of the Demon Clan. In other words."

"You don't recognize us, do you?

"In fact, I've tried using this tool, sensing more special magic than being human, but I couldn't capture it to the point of Mr. Luon's abilities. They don't just measure the amount of magic, etc."

I see, I can read the operation.

"Mr. Leon mentioned the user demon earlier, didn't he? Approaching the Demon Clan will not alert you... and this fact will surely change your speculation that you cannot capture even Mr. Luon's abilities."

That being said, Croix goes on with the tools.

"The enemy will use the tools to advance the battle. This helps identify the Demon Clan… If you return the back, Mr. Leon and the others who are not hooked on detecting this tool will be quite free to move."

"But it's possible that Bizel is aware of our existence, isn't it? They might come up with something to take care of."

"As a Bizel, it's not strange to be working out some sort of strategy, but it's impossible to infiltrate the entire army with that in a short time. Suddenly you won't be able to develop another tool, and if you suddenly change your way, there will be confusion in the field. Making such an act before the showdown can only be a risk"

I see, even if you know about us, you can't handle it.

"So as an operation, I don't know if it's a trap or an invasion of enemy forces, but at the same time I ask the two of you to move as a guerrilla, annihilating the enemy commander from one end"

"I see...... but is Amel good? Wouldn't you be angry if you did that?

"I'll leave the front line to her. Mr. Luon and the others may wish they could take sides, etc. above the front line. If it turns into war, the enemy should be surrounded by a dozen or nine, depending on the circumstances, because of the implications of blocking the exit route. Anyway, I just need you to move somewhere other than where Amel shows the lion's excitement."

... Hmm, that doesn't seem to stand out about us, and there's nothing wrong with that.

"Okay, that's fine...... but what about the measures for the key weapons of war?

"Oh, that's the problem. Assuming the weapon is complete... how to avoid it"

"It's unlikely they'll be using it at exactly the stage where the war happened... but there's a chance they'll hit the side."

"After the battle, etc., it must be a problem."

Hmm, what to do...... and it was Sophia who opened her mouth here.

"Your question. Assuming the weapons of war were complete, can you imagine what kind of attack that would be?

"My image is of something like a giant magic bullet. The magic that was shot out of the weapon flew in from the sky and landed… in this form"

"In that case, what do the enemies target us to do with magic… I think there is a way to deal with it if we consider it"

"... oh, I see"

I open my mouth via my will.

"For example, if magic flies in… is it something that detects the magic of Croix or Amel and targets it, or specifies the coordinates and shoots it in… the difference will change the way you do it?"

"Exactly. Mr. Croix, you seem to have some information about weapons of war, but do you have any idea around it?

"Hmm..."

Put your hand on your mouth, Croix thinks.

"I don't know exactly that far, but Mr. Luon's right, detecting or coordinates... or setting a target where the army is consolidated, it's possible."

"Either way, if you attack with a weapon, you're certain to target it before you eject it."

"I think so... any thoughts?

"Yes."

To Sophia's words, Croix gazes at her.

"A strategy against weapons... let me hear it"

- Hearing its contents, Croix raised her voice "I see".

"That sounds like a sure thing to do... I just need Amel to help me with this, and I need this guy to help me too"

"I wish I had thought of it sooner..."

"No, it's still as far as we can make it. No problem...... then let's just say it moves quickly"

Croix leaves us. Drop it off, I say something.

"I don't know if it's the best choice I can make here...... but whether they'll hook me up to it or not"

"That's a bet, but I think it's worth a try, more than magically setting a goal"

I agree with Sophia that I am.

- For one thing, do you feel like you've done everything you can? All you have to do is fight to make Croix and the others win... squeal in your heart and your body naturally put its strength into it because the showdown is close.
