The Best Assassin, Incarnated into a Different World’s Aristocrat

Walk through a city destroyed by demons.

The purpose of this one is to find the Demons, and they'll be looking for us who burned our families down.

What you find your opponent for first becomes an overwhelming advantage.

The advantage here is that we're disabling his family's sensors.

We realized the nature of finding enemies by CO2 concentration.

The pig eats without responding to meat. Even when I was burned, I deliberately stuck my twats and branches in the flames. So it burned all the way over there.

The latter reason is also simple. Because I mistakenly assumed that prey had come because of the increase in carbon dioxide concentrations caused by extended burning.

And as a measure of that, it dilutes the exhalation with air before returning it to the sky.

The Demons share their senses with their families. That is why the measure becomes a vendetta. Anyway, because the creature cannot escape the eye of the tree's monster, and assumes that the tree's monster is not in the place where it is positioned.

... It's the assassins who poke these assumptions. Peace of mind because we have cameras, peace of mind because we have watches, peace of mind because we have military dogs, that kind of 'peace of mind' is the right prey for us.

"Dear Lug, how do you find the Demons?

"I'm looking for the city to smudge and crush using the windy magic of exploration. Still, when I couldn't find it, it was a little rough."

We're walking through the green monsters.

Alert your surroundings and explore your enemies.

And I'm dropping things by the way.

It's not as big a city as that, so I'll be circling around in about two hours.

Happy or unhappy, it's not in the Demon Clan.

"You're back in the first place. Let's just say it's going the rough way."

"I've been spreading it all over a lot of places, and that's it."

"That's right. A special foul stone."

Yes, I've been spreading foul stones around the city.

Everything about it is specific to the blast flames we have prepared for today.

Total, twenty-two.

It was just enough to burn the whole city down, and it was also arranged to be as effective as possible.

"Um, Master Lug. Foul stones don't explode if you can't put magic into them until they're critical, doesn't it make sense to leave them?"

"Of course, but I'm ready to detonate it. I'm doing the magic Dia and I made. A technique that absorbs atmospheric mana. With its absorbing strength, it can adjust the time to become critical. Speaking of, I think it's a time bomb. Twenty-two foul stones, calculated to explode at the same time"

"That means, even one, an outrageous blast of power, twenty-two, all at once, how hard can it be?"

"One city, burn the whole thing down. That's the trick."

Hands you can't use if there's a chance of survival in the city.

But there can't be any survivors or anything in a city covered in green monsters.

And I'm checking with the country, saying you can do whatever you want to defeat the Demons.

Then you can burn down every city.

"Hey, Lug, what are you doing this for? Demons don't make sense to kill without that [Demon Killer], do they? True, that tree monster is gloomy and dangerous, but I wonder if it's a waste of foul stone"

"It's harassment. You saw that tree monster eating people, converting them into magic, and sigging them in. I swallowed up one city, probably because I wanted a ton of magic for some reason.... or its magic to increase tree monsters and augment armaments may be an end in itself. That way, if you smash what you've struggled to make, the Demons can't be fine either. We circled the city and couldn't find any enemies. Thoroughly piss him off and have him come out over there."

It was outside the city while we were talking about that.

If you stay in the city, you'll burn us to death.

Besides, it's easier to find enemies from the outside overlooking them, and harder to find them from the enemy.

Build something like a deep trench and hide dozens of meters from the city entrance.

Using a special telescope, you can see the city even from inside the hole.

"My calculations say it starts in about a minute."

There are errors due to the density of mana in the atmosphere, but even if it deviates greatly, it is about ten seconds.

By now, the foul stone would be starting to crack.

Destroy all the magic that the Demons have infiltrated from now on until they crush one of the cities, and all the increased families.

Any warm guy should be able to run out of bees.

... Anger is what blunts judgment. Angering the other person is an extremely effective means.

"Are you here?"

An overwhelming increase in magic conveys so far.

"Both of you, never show your faces. This trench is blocking heat and flames in the wind. If you get out of here at all, you'll die."

Blast flames on this scale, even if you can't do it directly to the flames.

Burn down all the oxygen in a strip per area. If you breathe that air, you're out in one shot.

"Okay, sweetheart."

"Ha, yes"

I see a scary tart, and Dia sees it and becomes a tart.

It was ten seconds later.

The world was engulfed in red. A red flame passes over the trench.

It's all red.

Twenty-two, or six thousand and six hundred demonic flames, have repainted the world itself in red.

The flames of the Red Lotus do not allow any presence.

Everything swallowed, spread, and then everything disappeared like a lie.

There is air for the flames to burn.

That foul stone was trying to supply the air with the magic of the wind, but even that was the result of burning it out in an instant.

At that next moment, the loss of air causes the wind to pour in from the surroundings with furious momentum, as if it were a cyclone, and even the few buildings that had painfully fastened the prototype crumble and blow away.

It's like a nightmare.

If we hadn't been in the hole, we would have been blown away far too.

It's all over, then I peek outside with a telescope in turn.

They're both still afraid to get their faces out of the hole.

"The city is gone."

"... I've never heard of it. I can't believe a single magician would destroy the city, but would wipe it out."

Destruction is raw in words.

This is extinction.

The city disappeared without a trace, and what was a city became vacant.

This is what happens if you operate twenty-two foul stones efficiently.

Nothing really.

"Hey, Lug, if you care about that, can you do the same thing in Wang Du?

"I can. I just sneak into the king's capital and put a foul stone in the proper placement to get out. I don't even make it. So it's a secret that you can imitate like this. They think he's dangerous."

All this catastrophe blames the Demons. No matter how much they say I can do, it's not something I figured out what complaints I'll get later if I turn the city off.

And I'm in danger.

"That's right. From the people up there, Lug might be more scared than the Demons or something. I'm glad you're not on guard today."

"If I had a watch, I'd have done it by other means."

If you care about that, a person who can erase the city in a matter of hours.

Such a thing, from an exchanger, would be nothing but fear.

While there is a threat of demon kings and demons, they will still keep us alive, but it is only natural to eliminate the threat if it disappears.

Think about it and you'll see.

If he goes crazy with some applause, if he's bought from another country, or if he's ambitious about taking control of the country, that's the only way the country will perish.

Of course, you don't mean that to me. But just because it can do it is dangerous.

It is an extremely reasonable idea to eliminate it for safety.

... After defeating the Demon King, Epona may go mad because he receives such a sensible judgment.

If I'm serious about saving the world without killing Epona, that's the only way I should figure out how to kill the power of the brave.

It's just that humans have found a way to kill demons. It wouldn't be impossible.

"I wonder if the Demons are still alive."

"He may be dead, but he will live again. Now, I wonder if the Demons can be blown away with everything they've piled up and still stay calm. You've been hit so far, you seem to be hiding there. At that time, I'll blow this one up again because I'll be doing the same thing in another city. That's how I wait for the limits of patience to come one day. I don't want to do that."

Ask for the outside look from the inside of the hole.

City... No, I'm staring at the empty space that was originally the city to see if there's any movement.

This is a game of finding enemies first, patience says things.

Has it just been about two or three minutes?

There was an explosion.

The source of the sound is in the middle of where it was originally the city.

The ground sounds come this far.

"but ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh Just a little bit more, I'm almost done, I'm gonna kill you, I'm gonna kill you, I'm gonna kill you!

I'm out of bees.

Screaming, rambling, crying.

A man-shaped demon clan with black horns and green crusts like the helmingworm Kabulashi. Especially the upper body shows up very aggressively because of the massive, sharp, angular crust.

From manipulating the trees, I thought the Demons themselves were such creatures, but unexpectedly the child of worms and people.

... a powerful enemy that combines defense and power with speed.

It's a mess.

But apparently, this battle is my win.

Unilaterally, only this one found the enemy.

Then the rest is easy. Just kill.

"Dia, Tart, if you signal, go from the front, I'll turn from the side"

"You're going with that plan."

"I will protect Dear Dear properly!

Dia puts up the field to kill the Demons, and Tart protects Dia like that.

And I'll kill you from the dead.

The Demons cannot be killed without joining forces as a team.

... The field of the Demon Killer is put into action for the first time. The magic of killing him is also the first in action.

Still no anxiety.

There is nothing on this team that cannot be assassinated.

So much so that I trusted Dia and Tart.
