Sword of the Philosopher

Leaze slashed, and the demons fell lightly. There was no trick there, and it seemed like our victory.

"...... I lost my master, so there's no change?"

"I had something like the power to tie us up." There is no problem in maintaining this body because it used the power of the star gods. "

In response to my words, [Sophia] gently stroked his sword.

"You've won."

"... is there a way to escape in this situation?"

I ask [Sophia] without losing my guard. As you can see from defeating the demon tribe that summoned them, the enemy defeated her. [Sophia] is the only one left, and I don't think there will be a lot of people left, but what can she afford?

"... it must be strange to you guys."

And she talks as if to speak for my doubts.

"The troops are obliterated, the masters are obliterated... I'm the only one left"

In response to [Sophia], who spoke indifferently, the companions began to besiege each other.

"Then I'll just be done..." you don't seem to think. That's true. I still have a plan. "

Even if you get hit this much, are you sure?

"It's the opposite, because I've been hit."

What are you talking about? I had my doubts, but I couldn't leave her like this, so I stepped in.

She did nothing. I wouldn't defend myself with a sword in my right hand... and [Sophia] disappeared.

"... I don't think that's the end of it."

My friends seemed to agree with my murmuring, and Leaze and Ordia nodded.

Gulk, how's your base?

There's no problem. There's no sign of a star god......

Ok, then...

Luon

Kati's voice is from the back of the base, and as he turns his gaze, Romilda and the guards approach him.

The enemy has been defeated because they thought they had a way out.

How many people?

Katie explained, and Gulk replied, “That's probably all of them.”

For the time being, you can think that the faces that were called by the demons have disappeared.

"At the end, [Sophia] was muttering something..."

I think we need to look into the base.

"There is also a possibility that it is a trap that can be activated by investigation....."

So I called in [Sophia]... and I turned to the last place I stood.

"Even if there were enemies, if I defeated the demon tribe I had summoned... Kati, when did you fight and win?"

"Not long before I got here."

--It looked like it was before Leaze took it down.

If you defeat the demon race that gave you the order, even if it's left, it could disappear.

Hmm, let's call Feus from our base and investigate.

Alright, let's get out of this base for now...

At that moment, I felt the magic under my feet. The tip of the arrow that I thought was something, I realized it was coming up from the ground.

Everyone--

At the same time, the magic power bursts out, exploding the surface like a volcanic eruption and rising to the sky. We were swallowed by an overwhelming amount of magic -- our sight was filled with white.

Apparently, [Sophia] 's solution was a suicide bomb magic that involved us. Certainly, the enormous amount of magic power that used the power of the earth could not be swallowed...

"Oh my... considering the magnitude of the magic, it's telling us what happened to our base, too."

Out of the range of magic effects, I muttered one thing.

"That said..."

I looked around. It was a massive magical attack, and my people were caught up in it, but they were all safe and sound.

Would you like to take a call?

There's no need for that. We have confirmed the survival of all of them. Zero injuries. "

Words from Gulk. So I nod a little bit.

Where are we?

"Nothing abnormal. I've been in touch."

“That's good. There was also a possibility that he would come to us when he realized the magic."

I wonder if it was because it was the body of the first time that it was so messy.

Katie commented.

"You were complying with Master's orders." It's a ridiculous way to do it. "

"This isn't exactly what the Demon Clan, who is the master, instructed me to do....."

That's all I know.

"I was wondering, but the demons were giving orders to some extent." Are you going to go out of your way to dictate the kind of solutions you could perish with? Even if you do it on your own, the demons will impose their own restrictions. "

... maybe there's still something there.

Gulk says, "Don't you think this is the end for all of us? We're all looking to where the enemy strongholds are."

Although there was a large amount of dust, it was in a miserable situation, both visible and visible. The magic power seemed to be able to bounce off the entire base, and the ground felt like there was no place to tread. However, it seems that there is no appearance of a large hole, and for the time being, it seems that an investigation can be carried out.

”The tents have been destroyed without a trace... honestly, there's no need to investigate”

I may have done something to stop you from understanding it.

Alto grabbed the great sword and said. Certainly, seeing him and the other companions nodding,

Gulk, can you check it out?

Let's see if we can catch something with magic power.

From there, Gulk checks out... the visibility was too large, so it might take some time for the smoke to clear up.

"We'll wait until the investigation is over." Katie, just in case, I need you to find some enemies around. "

"I've already done it." In conclusion, there is no reaction around. "

"But?"

As he heard it, Galk spoke.

"Hmm, it looks like you thought the same thing." There was a magical reaction in the smoke that hadn't cleared yet. ”

"Is that... a monster?" Or do you want to survive? "

It's a sign of a star god.

Along with those words, I could feel them. The same is true of my people, and I immediately entered the battle position.

Eventually, the smoke cleared up. In the midst of such a tragedy that the tent and other structures disappeared, I discovered a figure as if I had been standing there from the beginning.
