Tensei Oujo wa Kyou mo Hata o Tatakioru

"First, let's talk about the relationship between the Demon King and magic power."

Irine cut out after a short silence.

"You know that many of the people who replaced the Demon King were mages, right?"

"Yes"

Nod to a quiet question.

To confront the mighty enemy of the Demon King, the cooperation of a magician with great power is essential.

However, they have weak defense against physical attacks and often die in battle. In other words, the vessel near the Demon King was initially thought to be a mage.

However, some people noticed in the fight with the Demon King several times.

The devil who chose a vessel that is not a mage is weaker than before.

Of course, it is not something that can be enemy alone.

On the contrary, one division could easily be destroyed. Even if the devil rots, it is a demon king.

However, if mankind fights together, it will be.

Yes-I felt, "I can reach it."

"But not all, and the Demon King who revived in a vessel other than a mage was obviously weakened, so we deduce that he has the power to amplify the magical power of his generation."

Irine-sama's words affirmed the assumption that I had previously thought that the Demon King is a magic amplifier.

"In other words, for the Demon King, the greater the power of the Deity, the better it is. However, there is no reason to choose a non-Mage as a vessel. The answer I derive from them is that I thought there were some conditions for the Demon King to enter the generation. "

"Is it a condition?"

"One is distance or time."

"……So that's it"

I listen to Irine-sama's words and spill like a solitary word.

"The Devil did not choose a vessel other than the mage, he had to choose."

The mage vessel wasn't nearby, so I replaced it with another.

In the case of, the demon king's range of movement without a vessel is limited. Or, if you have no instrument, do you think there is a time limit that can exist?

Irene gave a brief summary of his thoughts and nodded.

"For the Demon King, magic is not only a weapon for fighting, but also a necessary source of nutrition to keep himself. This is just a hypothesis."

The equivalent of water and food for us is the magic for the Demon King.

If that's the case, you'll probably think that the mage shouldn't even be close to the Demon King, but it's not that simple.

"And the other is the condition of the vessel. I thought I had to be a person who died very recently. But the information in the Raptor Kingdom suggests that it could be wrong. I came out. ''

"Even if it's not death, will a body whose life activity has been reduced due to injury or illness be an option?"

Irine responded, saying, "Zero" after a light astonishment.

"The princess also noticed."

"Because even the folklore of the Raptor Kingdom suggested that possibility,"

Apart from whether the information in the raptor is correct, it cannot be ignored if the worst case is assumed.

"I can't predict how far it will fall into the category. Perhaps if the corpse is more convenient to take over completely, and if it can possess the body of a living person ... it would be very troublesome."

I starred at Irene-sama's rugged expression, and I faded away.

It's awkward if life isn't a concern. Once missed, it will be irreparable.

Even though there is no basis in the story of imagination, if the worst is assumed, measures must be taken.

"But if you can't maintain your presence without magic, there are ways to deal with it."

I tried to make a bright voice, but I couldn't hide my upset.

On the contrary, I feel that Irine-sama's expression has become more severe than the air of the place has relaxed. She looked sad and opened her mouth after hesitating for a while.

"... I initially thought that if we weren't near us, we would be able to get rid of it. Unlike in the past, only a handful of people can use magic."

I had a bad feeling that Irine-sama was talking about the past tense.

I think at the beginning that it is the same as saying that it is different now.

A handful of people can use magic. This is not a mistake.

Except for the Nebel Kingdom, the existence of mages has not been confirmed, and it is rare in Japan. Moreover, the number is decreasing year by year.

If the perception is not wrong, you may need to change your mindset.

"It's not the same thing that" magic can be used "and" have magic "...?"

When I mutter, Irine shows surprise.

"After all, the princess is intelligent."

What came back was affirmatively affirming my words.

I was surprised.

I didn't think it was the right answer.

I'm not happy even if it hits. On the contrary, I wanted to laugh if it was a strange idea.

"Maybe the people of this country ... No, do people all over the world say they have the potential to have magic?"

"In the past, all humans in this world could use magic. It was thought that our descendants gradually lost their power, but it may not be zero."

Is it like a trace organ such as the tail bone?

Similar to sole that only the shape remains even if you stop using it in the process of degeneration. If we can't use magic, but have a very small amount of magic.

There is no safe place anywhere in this world.

"So that's the story of summoning from another world."

"Yes. Our goal is to invite people from the past and the present to a world where there is no trace of magic and magic."

A world without magic.

So, the world where I lived in the previous world-the earth is applicable. To be precise, it may be "a world very similar to the world I lived in."

However, because he has no magical power, there is no worry about being put into a vessel.

"Invite me ... what do you do from there?"

Even if Princess Miko destroys the stone and she is not possessed, she goes out if there are people around her.

Even if you are off limits, there may be cases. The risk is too great either in an accident or on purpose.

"I don't mean I'm going to push a stone and bring it home, right?"

Irine was terrified, and Irine smiled with a bitter smile.

"It's true that one of the candidates is up."

After all ....

Recognize that you had a bad feeling and put your hand on your throbbing and aching head.

The quickest and safest.

But it's just for this world.

"If the assumption that the demon king can not exist without magic power is correct, it is a valid hand, but if it is different, we will impose disaster on a different world. Last resort ''

I'm a little bit relieved and breathless.

I would like you to pick up if the consideration of the demon king and magic power is proved to be correct. I don't want to impose threats on my hometown.

"Summoning from another world has another purpose."

"Purpose?"

When I turned the parrot, Irine showed a little thought.

"The purpose may be a bit irritating. Is it good to expect the effects brought by summons from different worlds?"

The explanation from there is doubtful whether I myself understood it properly.

So, if you roughly summarize what you know.

Transporting from world to world puts a heavy burden on vessels and souls.

Therefore, he seems to gain great power when crossing the boundaries of the world.

Is it sleeping inside of you and being awakened before the danger of life?

It is not clear whether it was given by a great being called God.

I don't know the mechanism, but if the magical power is "Yin", it is "Yang". It seems like you're going to summon someone with the opposite power, so that "minus" becomes "plus".

You can understand the feelings of his father who said that it was a ridiculous story.

It's like catching a cloud.

But at the same time I know.

A cute girl who embodies a miracle.
