Sword of the Philosopher

Then the following demons were swallowed up by the knights, and the destruction was complete.When they arrived, it was terribly easy to decide on a match... somehow, it was enough to applaud.

"That's it... for now?"

The knight murmured with a sigh.All the demons had vanished, and the knights and soldiers were about to speak of relief.

I was advancing the war, but it was actually close.In this state, I wonder if the magic of confrontation against the demons really works.Technological development to defeat the Demon King, and the results are finally...Seems pretty tough, but it should have inspired the human side to find a way to win.

"... that's amazing magic"

The wise man speaks.And the knight shrugged,

"It's still magic under development... it was a bet, but I'm glad it worked.Then come with us. "

"... I want to confirm that I..."

"I know.Thank you for saving my people.I don't know why you're fighting demon kings or demons... but now it's our turn to reward you.

The wise man had no emotions in his words.Neither touching nor stunned... the element of confusion seemed to be greater.

I haven't felt so uncomfortable with this kind of development since I've been saving people... is it strange for a wise man like that?

"... okay."

That's all the wise man answered.Something is caught in your heart... because you have the idea that you can't save people.

Certainly the wise man has helped many people.But I'm sure I couldn't overlook it in the process of defeating the Demons, and saving people wasn't enough.That's why I can't take the knight's words from the front.

Then the wise man began walking with the knights... and the space was distorted, so he quickly arrived in town.

And there was... an unexpected sight.

"This is...."

That was undoubtedly my word.The place... was certainly the capital of the Burkes kingdom, Philinteres.There is no doubt about the shape of the surrounding mountain.

Moreover, the castle, which has a robust, high-rise wall compared to modern times, and is built with the mountain on its back, was renovated in such a way as to make it seem integrated with the mountain.It's not just a town.To put it bluntly, the Battle Base... was a fortress city prepared to fight the Demon King.

Follow me.

The knight says. The wise man followed him silently and walked through the heavy gates.

The streets are lined with shops... but there's always a knight in sight.Besides, people's expressions seemed to be something other than joy and sorrow... acting with firm resolve.

"... this town has been enlarged by attacks on towns and villages, beginning in the surrounding countries."

And the knight says. I understood what you were trying to say.

"Not only the towns and villages nearby, but also from other countries... it is recognized that this place has enough power to confront the Demon King.Then I proceeded with my research and finally found a way to confront the Demons as much as possible.That's it now. "

That was magic.

"Ah... but that's not the end.No matter how many demons you defeat, there's no point in defeating the Demon King. "

The wise man grips his staff hard.The wise man who was there when he first proclaimed... may be thinking about the partner who was killed in front of him.

"I'll tell you more at the castle.Someone else is doing the same.I want to show you there first. "

"... that's..."

"I'm talking about you acting alone.I don't know about that... but I'm sure you understand.It's impossible to defeat the Demon King on its own. "

The wise man nodded reluctantly.It was a simple fact.

"If you're not good with people, you can treat them that way... face to face before you decide."

"Well...."

The wise man tried to say something.And the knight turned to him,

"Is there another reason?

"No, well, well...."

A wise man with a bitter expression.There was a partner warrior in his head.

Along with that, you understand why the wise man is acting alone.I have people to fight with... and I don't want to lose it again.That's why I'm... acting like that all by myself.

It was a fact that I knew how much the death of my partner had hurt the wise man.But now the wise man nodded to the knight, pushing and killing it.

"It's okay... but I don't know how much I can help you..."

"Let's verify that carefully.Nevertheless, it is.From my point of view, you have considerable power.You can be proud. Its ability to defeat many demons... will definitely be a great force. "

The wise man remained silent, but did not cease to advance his feet.The wise man apparently convinced his friends... to join hands with his comrades to fight the Devil King.

Perhaps this is the great event that made the wise man so present that he could be told in the afterlife... and it may be said that his story begins here.

Previously on Prologue... I figured out exactly how the wise man fought.At the same time, I wondered how I decided to fight the Star God from here on out...

Still at this stage, he seems to be moving only to defeat the existence of the demon king.I mean, it wasn't about saving the world, it was moving for more personal reasons.I don't know when it will change... but I can figure it out somehow.

And following the knight's lead, the wise man keeps walking... awake from his dreams.From there, I whispered as I looked up at the ceiling.

"Friends....."

I am now fighting to defeat the star gods by asking for the help of people I know throughout my journey.A similar situation is about to happen to the wise man.

"But... why didn't you do it in the battle against the Star God?

No, maybe I just don't know.They might have been moving the same way as us, but... can you see around?

I got up from bed to have breakfast and started feeding myself, worrying about my next dream with the feeling of cartoons going on.
