Sword of the Philosopher

invisible enemies

When I returned to the base, the people who fought first rested... but Sophia and Leaze, in their role as commanders, met face to face with Devals and the others. In a tent placed in the center of the base, she spreads out a map around the table and talks about it.

"Gulk"

First of all, when I call the name of the spirit, the child Gulk appears on the table.

Keep finding enemies... We've destroyed our bases in the North and South, but I don't think it's over.

{Hmm, I'm continuing my investigation... but there's no sign of it. So far, I've been looking into it very carefully. "

"What if there's an enemy?"

And the next thing I know is Devals.

You must have the ability to sneak past the enemies of the Spirit.

If you have the power of a star god, can you do it?

“Maybe. You were right to build your base.”

Devals was looking down at the map.

“If you sneak through a spot and your enemies get close, it's hard to break through a multiple barrier.”

Can I use the power of the Star God?

To tell the truth, Star God countermeasures are also used here.

said Galk further.

It's a magical barrier to being attacked by a star god. It's a very special specification, and no matter how much power the enemy possesses, it should be difficult to get past it. ”

"I see... it's just that we're exposing technology here, too."

There's nothing I can do about it... I'm unwilling to do it either.

“We can't help but secure the safety zone. I built a base and even secured my way to the Demon Royal Castle. For the time being, let's do it."

After I said that, I turned my face to Sophia.

It's a countermeasure against the enemy that may still be here... but if you attack the base, you have to think about how to get around it.

Yes, today we're divided between North and South, so we should split up between intercepting and defending our base.

"Basically, you'll be good at intercepting directly." Regarding base defense, I think we can use magic to support it, so we should leave it to Kuza and Kati. "

I'll say it while I keep my gaze on Leaze.

Leaze, what role do you want?

I don't care if it's intercept defense.

"Alright. I'm at the base, so I'd rather intercept than defend myself." Either Sophia or Leaze will take care of the base defense. "

Sophia and Leaze looked at each other. There's nothing wrong with either of them, given their abilities.

"Then I'll intercept you."

Sophia raised her hand. Inevitably, Leaze was in charge of the defense.

"Well, I guess it's best if you're a candidate... Gulk, I'm keeping an eye on you, right?"

In addition to the angels, the spirits also participate. The magic barrier is equipped with a magic technique to sense magic power, so you should be able to see it when you get closer. ”

It would be troublesome if they broke into the base, so we definitely want to avoid that, so we should make the protection thicker.

That's right... but if the enemy doesn't show up, you'll have to cut it off somewhere.

"I know. I'm not going to wait for the enemy to appear... but in that case, how do we protect the base?"

"Can you leave that area to me?"

And Devals speaks out.

There's a plan.

Are you okay?

"It's true that I'm anxious about an opponent with the power of a star god... but at least I won't let you get in the way of a showdown."

...... I nodded tinyly with that. Otherwise, the head of the celestial realm insisted. Even more importantly, I had the help of spirits and so on. The base also increased its defensive capabilities... so we did what we could.

"Then, Devals, please."

"Ah, I'll take care of it... but I think Luon and the others will set us up before we face a showdown."

If you're following the Star God's orders, the purpose is to get information from us. Of course, when we went to the decisive battle, we couldn't get any more information, so if we attacked, we would have to step into the Demon King Castle.

If we're going to be at the castle base, why don't we wait for the opponent too?

When I ask a question, Devals shrugs his shoulders.

"As expected, the enemy has no idea what's going on inside the base." In that case, secretly going to the showdown... I'll take the possibility into account. "

"Ah, sure... if that happens, the prospect will be crushed as an enemy."

"Therefore, we should be launching an attack not far away... if there are still enemies left."

The next time Devals spoke up...... it was Sophia.

"I think it would be best to target the base at the right time to launch an attack from the north to the south....."

"I think we won the game there." Luon-san's actions were faster than I expected...... as a result, I was defeated by North-South aliens before attacking. "

We'd appreciate it if it were like that... but when we were silent, Vals went on.

"The results will be out in a day." For now, Mr. Luon and the others need to prepare for the showdown. If you observe the shape of the enemy or are caught by spotting magic... let's immediately enter the intercept position-- "
