The Death Mage Who Doesn’t Want a Fourth Time

Three hundred and seventy-three story encounters and parting season encounters.

For them, it was an act that required them to be ready to die. Because they had a motive to harm themselves, and they felt they would.

'So, from now on, you mean the Vidalists. Again, thank you from now on'

Vandaloo, however, lightly accepted her… the "Goddess of the Holy Spear" Elks, the gods who gave shelter to the remaining heroic candidates in Orbaum.

"Now let's talk about the content of the temple to be sent out to Hendriksen and other Temple officials, changes to the doctrine, the refurbishment of the temple, etc. -"

'No, is that okay? I've been prepared to make contracts and offer myself.'

"Yes, sir."

The Elks couldn't hide their confusion when they saw Vandaloo nodding and answering instantly, a different figure as big as they were.

"Vida and the others have asked me to examine the saddle replacement, or to respond to the gods of the Arda forces who responded to the surrender."

Precisely, he asked me not to destroy him, but Vandaloo explains it by replacing it with a soft expression because the story is about to wrap up well.

He also has trouble destroying too many gods and becoming an obstacle to the maintenance of this world, so it is only natural not to destroy gods that have no reason to destroy them.

'Besides, I'm not eating the souls of gods and people because I want to. It's one of the means to defeat the enemy.

And I don't see you guys as enemies.... If you judge me strictly, you should think I'm an enemy '

The Elks chose and nurtured Hendriksen and his hero candidates as a force to fight Vandaloo. Enough to determine that there is a hostile will at this point, but it was not directly harmed... rather, the Hendrixens are fighting under Miriam's command to protect Orbaum.

Besides, the Elks obstructed Vandaloo's purpose like the 'Ice God' Yupeon and did not make a direct declaration of hostility, albeit spiritual. Nor have we actually crossed spears and killed each other, like the "Thunder Giant" Blateo or the "Great Sea Dragon God" Madrosa.

Of course, we know that the Elks are part of the Alda forces. They have been followers of Alda and his subordinate God since their lifetime, and have been to God after death. I mean, since I was a human being, I've been on the side of oppressing the Vida followers and the new races.

But judging by that as an enemy or not, the gods of the Alda forces end up being enemies no matter what they surrender or do. That's not serious.

'So I think there's something to think about, and I think it's hard for the Vidarian gods to accept you as immediate companions, but that's winning their trust in what they're going to do.

Of course, I'll do more than just accept it. '

You may learn to resist being asked for a price and not being subject to conditions. But we'll have that resolved ourselves. All Vandaloo does is push it... cooperate.

'I just don't trust you completely either, so I can't tell you what I'm going to do. Just because you believe in God doesn't mean you're just someone whose followers deserve to believe. Just like that,' cause you can't always trust a trustworthy man to the God to whom he belongs. '

There are also good followers of Alda. The Vida faithful also had those who discriminated against the new species of Vida. Just like that, Hendricksen and the others can be trusted, but we can't trust the Elks completely just because they're serving.

While understanding Vandaloo's words, Elk argued this was not convinced that it was too convenient for us.

'I understand. But just do nothing and be warm. That's the only way to gain trust from the Vidalist gods. Let's go millions or tens of millions of years away.

We would therefore like to enter into a contract if it were meant to be, and make our vows form and enforceable, but that is impossible. Therefore, I will keep this spear. '

That said, what a symbol Elk gave herself, the Holy Spear, towards Vandaloo.

"Non will take this wand."

"I need this pen."

"I'll take this bull."

"I have this seedling and seedlings."

And the elk is followed by the gods to which the other heroic candidates are subjected, one after the other, offering symbols and artifacts that are important to themselves.

'I'm happy to feel, but wait a minute'

But as a Vandaloo, I have trouble being offered. Whatever he is now, he is leaving his flesh and coming to the divine realm only by his soul. I do not know if I can return to the flesh while I receive the symbols and artifacts of the gods.

If you can keep it back in the flesh, you'll have trouble storing tons of artifacts. Spears, canes, pens and other objects were not the only ones offered. A creature like a divine cow (?) or even seedlings and seedlings.

We have a problem managing this place and if something happens to your valuables, it's a big problem.

So Vandaloo thought he wanted to get over this without difficulty with the contract Elk had spoken of before giving him the spear.

'... I'm sorry, I'd like to do it with a contract if possible, but can you tell me why I can't and I don't know what to do with it'

But Vandaloo didn't know about the covenant the gods would make.

"No, of course you don't know about the covenant I make among the gods."

The elks looked even more surprised when Vandaloo said so back to the elks, who uniformly looked surprised.

(You don't have to be so surprised because I'm too studious. I've seen Vida and Zulwarn and the others many times in the divine realm, my mother is the incarnation of Vida, and I'm in an environment where I'm rolling with as many opportunities to gain knowledge, so I take it for granted that I know more about the gods.

In fact, I was taught about reincarnation before this)

'Peria, can you tell me?

Vandaloo spoke to the 'Goddess of Water and Knowledge' Peria, who had refrained on this occasion as a negotiator.

'Fine. The covenant is a covenant that is exchanged among deities without flesh, and it was originally administered by Alda. Look, because Alda is originally' God of Light and Law ''

According to it, the covenant exchanged among the gods basically seemed to be administered by Alda. They say that the gods swear before Arda, and if it is broken, Arda perceives it, and punishes the broken God. Arda has the divine authority of 'Pile of Law', which punishes the gods, so I guess he was a fitter.

'Well, now I know what it means to be unable to do'

But you can't trade contracts in front of Alda in a modern era that is divided and contested between Vida and Alda forces.

"But suddenly I have trouble being told to keep the artifact, so is it okay to ask Vida to keep it, not me? Otherwise, the dropping point is… getting people to take on the role that is now lacking in Vidalism, which is a quick idea. '

'I don't mind. And if there's anything I can do about the missing roles, I'll take them. "

Elk said so naturally, thinking that he should do anything needed first in order to gain trust and liquidate past deeds.

"Now, please be the patron saint of the magical girl"

"Worship... now what?

"I am the patron saint of magic girls. You see, Miriam and Carinia would have been transformed, right?

In the Vidalists, the lack of God presiding over the magical girl who fights using transformative gear developed by Vandaloo was a problem.

For example, in the case of a warrior, there are gods in the gods that preside over various aspects of the warrior, such as "God of the Warrior", "God of the Swordsman", and "God of the Devil's Sword". And there are also gods who preside over jobs derived from warriors, such as "The Knight's God" and "The Soldier's God".

Of course, even if those gods don't exist, they don't lose warrior-based jobs, and there's nothing like what happens to warriors who already exist.

Then why do we need all kinds of gods who lead warriors, because they demand that the believers they serve.

If you want to become a warrior, you naturally want to pray to the 'God of Warriors' and assume the edge. But wouldn't that be enough if there was a pillar of 'God of Warriors'? But that doesn't happen in reality.

The more warriors there are, the more warriors are born. He who fights with an axe, not a sword, but a spear, with a weapon.

Those who jump first into the enemy formation, and vice versa, who give priority to protecting their people with giant shields. Inside will appear those who fight not only with martial arts but also with witchcraft.

Some will make a name for themselves for the charisma that commands their companions rather than the simple martial arts, the courage to fight to protect the weak behind them, even in absolutely unfavourable circumstances, and the beauty and Rindo that shines on the battlefield.

Such a wide variety of warriors seek a God that is right for them.

In other words, the fact that God is diverse means the diversity of warriors.

And magic girls continue to grow in their current progression and are gaining diversity. Since before in the Vidal Demon Empire, it has also become very popular in Orbaum as a job held by Darcia, the 'Vida incarnation', and by 'Hero Princess' Miriam. Miriam doesn't actually have a history of being a magic girl as a job.

In this world, moreover, there is no established concept of "magic girl". The condition is that they use transformative gear.

For this reason, even a ghoul, a princess (but a zombie at two meters tall) with an emperor's mother or grandson, would be interpreted as a magical girl.

It's not just about fighting with witchcraft, it's about singing, dancing, fighting in combination with martial arts, fighting with martial arts in the main, fighting with martial arts alone [magic girl].

Transformation gear not only functions as a magic medium, but also has a wide variety of objects that can be transformed into physical weapons and used as spears, swords, axes, etc.

It's only a matter of time before a magic girl gains diversity like an existing warrior or sorcerer. Many branches have commented in their sorcerer guilds around the Orbaum selection kingdom that "that's not like existing sorcerers, so it would be difficult for them to come and talk to me about 'wanting to be a magic girl', etc.," so they won't even fit as a subspecies of sorcerers.

But there are still few gods who preside over magic girls.

It is only natural that the 'Goddess of Life and Love' Vida is believed as the Goddess of the Magic Girl, as Darcia, the incarnation, is the Magic Girl first. Secondly, the "Demon God of Time and Magic" Richlent, a god without gender or of both sexes, is also believed as the patron saint of magic girls.

And because "Goddess of Water and Knowledge" Perrier, "Mother God of the Earth and Craftsman" Botin, and "Heroic God of Scylla" are needed to create transformative costumes, "Evil God of Sludge and Tentacles" Merebeil, "Goddess of the Dark Night" Zerzelia and other powerful believers, some of whom have jobs in the [magical girl] system are also believed as gods related to magical girls.

The same goes for 'Moon Giant' Deanna, who recently received his transformative gear.

And Vandaloo, the maker of the transformative costumes needed to become a [magic girl], is also actually treated like a [magic girl] god.... Let Canaco say, though he is perceived as the equivalent of a fairy thumbing that gives more transformative items than God himself.

In fact, it is also impossible to be recognised as such, as it helps me when I consult with the King of Using Demons, who exists within the sphere of power of the Vidal Demon Empire, "I want to be a magical girl".

However, few beings in human society are still regarded as [magical girls] gods. Because there are gods who are famous within the Vidal Demon Empire, but not in the Orbaum-elected kingdom, or only in a limited number of regions.

"I don't know how many thousands of years it will take to wait for people to naturally get out of [magic girl] to God. So we are looking for a Magic Girl God to admire '

That's how Vandaloo concluded his explanation for the elk, which remained stale. But then, even after a while, the elk stays stiff, so I go on and open my mouth.

'Of course, I'm not saying I can't. Because in human beings I can't even understand all of God's circumstances.

Besides, less magic girl gods doesn't create a huge obstacle. I just thought of it and said it, there's no deep meaning in this proposal '

With that said, for some reason the other gods watching the elk still looked surprised. Vandaloo interpreted it as a surprise that he was trying to pull the proposal he had made into an elk from himself.

My impression must be pretty bad for them, the former gods of the Alda forces. Thinking about it, Vandaloo sighed inside saying that future interpersonal...... vs. divine relationships and communication seemed difficult.

"Yes, no, its great actor, one, sincerely worships -"

However, an elk revived from rigidity tries to vow to join the charge of the patron saint of the magical girl with a sense of sadness.

"Wait, Elk! You shouldn't be the only one carrying the burden!

'I want us to take on that role too!

Gods of other heroic candidates trying to follow it.

(I see. Naturally there is more burden than getting a new role. Asking only elk for that was a problem)

With that look in his eyes, Vandaloo reflected so.

"Eh! Everybody..."

Elk looking back at the other gods in a way he was impressed.

Will the gods to whom the remaining heroic candidates remain in Orbaum assume the new role of patron saint of the magical girl?

"Ahhh, pinching your mouth may be an imitation of what you've done as a witness, but do you have a minute?

But before that happened, Peria pinched her mouth.

"Of course, sir."

'Thank you, Vandaloo, in an age when God can't get off to earth as easily as he does now, the divinity that God did not originally possess... order is important to get a role.

If you're going to be a magic girl's god, it's a lot more burdensome for the followers to voluntarily think and pray that Elk is also a magic girl's god than for the Elk followers to work with the Hendricksen followers because they've become a magic girl's god.

The power of the gods is determined by prayer from the believers. Yes, God is a changing being by the human beings he serves.

When Elk was also human, he was a hero who carried a holy spear and made a name for himself with numerous achievements in martial arts and beauty. Then, after his death, he was elevated from hero to divine status, at which time he was served as a hero god and goddess of magic.

However, Elk is now also the patron saint of the women involved in the battle and the goddess of the princess knight because he was a female knight during his life.

There are examples in Japan of "Earth" and where the fruit god has become a confectionery god in future generations. Same as that.

While it may be troublesome to move from the faithful more easily to broaden their divinity, the burden of spontaneous attempts to gain a new divinity from God risks even changing their personality in some cases, such as undergoing a remodeling surgery throughout the body.

As the former Demon King's Army's "Sludge and Tentacle Evil God" Merebay Bail tried to turn into "Scylla's Heroic God".

Of course, the magnitude of the burden varies depending on that god and the divinity he tries to gain. In the case of Merebay Bail, his own son, 'The Heroic God of Scylla', so much pain was enough. If this had been a racially irrelevant 'heroic god of race', Merebay Bail would have been unconscious for more than tens of thousands of years and would have been a completely different being when he woke up, or significantly weakened and unable to be a god.

In contrast, the changes that will be made to God in the case of granting a new divinity to God from the faithful are such as to increase the number of new garments and martial arts, equal to no change in the nature of God himself and no burden.

It would also be natural for Peria to stop.

"It seems to me that the perception of a magical girl in the Orbaum kingdom today is more" a kind of magician "than" a bard singing while dancing who can also use magic ". Whatever Orbaum actually sees where you guys are fighting, there is a strong tendency to do so in each Duke's territory.

For those faceless elks, it's a burden to gain the divinity of the patron saint of a magical girl directly. "

"I didn't know the concerts of the Canakos would go behind their backs in this way..."

Vandaloo finally realized when Perrier told him that the national tour he was taking to quickly guide the people of each Duke's territory had caused an explosion in the awareness of magic girls but only their girlfriends on stage.

'Okay. Let's still go to the tunnel. To Hendricksen for now -'

"Huh!? No way, make Hendriksen a magic girl!?

'No, I'm going to give you the transformative gear, but I'm thinking of the type that turns into armor, like Simon or Natanya'

"Oh, thank you for your concern."

Elk nodding in a wholeheartedly relieved manner. Neither does Vandaloo want to wear a fuzzy pretentious costume to Hendriksen, a beautiful young man of aristocratic elegance close to Miriam and the others, from the beginning.

I just expect Hendriksen, one of the leading elk believers, to use his transformative gear to add a new divinity to Elk, the god he serves.

"Shall we return to the contents of the temple to be sent out to Hendriksen and other Temple officials, changes to the doctrine, the refurbishment of the temple, etc."

Beyond saddling from the Alda forces to the Vidalists, we must in the future remove statues and relief serving the gods of the Alda forces in the Temple and have them transformed into objects serving the Vidalist gods. A change in doctrine may be necessary, and in order to do so we must entrust the priesthood.

Vandaloo, who can thus speak directly with God, has some hands to go and convey the instructions of the Elks... but whatever the Vidal Demon Empire does, doing so in the Orbaum-elected kingdom will crush the faces of the priests who keep the Elks' temples, buying unnecessary objections.

Since, of course, the content of the doctrine and the location of the temple, which was the Lord, are separate from one god to another, the non-elk gods must also be consulted on a pillar-by-pillar basis.

Vandaloo succeeded in quickly gathering consultations by adding more tentacles and arms, creating eyes and mouths on those tips, and proceeding with consultations at the same time.

'So be it. Now that there are no followers of the powerful Alda forces outside the Duke of Fazon territory, I don't think your temple will be raided in an organized manner, but be careful.

And when I judge Hendricksen and the others, I'm going to write the letter 'candidate' for a hero. '

"Why the hell is that...?

"They fought with us to protect Orbaum from the demon king Gudulanis and his men, because they are already heroes, not heroic candidates.

Bye. '

Leaving that word, Vandaloo disappeared from the elk's divine realm.

"... do you still mean that there are vessels that just affect God as well as people?"

It should be noted that the Elks were surprised about Vandaloo because they found out he was serious about saying he was human.

While walking through the underground passage of the Royal Castle in Talosheim, Vandaloo's main body, the Demon King, feels that the main body has returned to earth from the Elk's Divine Area.

"Again, thoughts and sensations become dull while the main body is in the divine domain"

They take the majority of their souls to the divine domain, so in the meantime, the demon kings of Vandaloo use their loads on their thoughts and senses. Just remember, so far, there's no real harm... but if you're going to have a fierce fight that consumes a lot of magic, you might be at a disadvantage.

'The only way to solve this too is to increase the body... no, it doesn't make sense to increase the body because it's a soul problem'

"Can I help you?

A sneering voice was heard from above the demon king of the main body, who came just in front of the workshop.

Looking up, there was a young man standing upside down on the ceiling with a full grin.

Behind, morbidly skinned white beauties and giggling girls still walk through the ceiling.

'No, I'm talking to myself. Never mind, Bocol'

The young man was not a ghost, but Bocol, one of those who had been made an experimental object of the Six Ways Saint in "Origin". The morbidly-skinned white beauty is Yukijoro, and the girl is Mitsuya Amamiya, meh, it's you.

"Van - eh, ceiling highs, you're better! Bander praised me, too!

"You've got better magic control"

Why are the underworld hiking and walking through the ceiling, for training [unattributed sorcery] and [sorcery control].

By supporting and balancing his weight in [Mindfulness], the underworld is acting like he's walking on the ceiling. This is an intermediately difficult training in which too much effort makes it painful to move and too much force causes you to fall.

"Yeah, this is not gonna be a bowl account like mine."

And there's also the risk of falling upside down on the floor, so under the underneath the underneath were the banders ready for what if.

"Bo and Gabriel are sleeping with too much magic. Ulrika fell and fainted because she missed control."

'I know you know because it's me, but I didn't get hurt because I took it before I fell on the floor. I seem to have fainted from the fear of falling'

'No, the main body was in the shrine until a while ago, so it seemed to be sweetening my connection. Now I remember. After all, it seems I was right to create the bander'

Unlike the Demon King and the Split, the Bander is a specially made Split created by chopping the soul of the Vandaloo body. Instead of 100 million less magic in the body, the bander can remain connected without influence from the Vandaloo body while being a Vandaloo split.

While Vandaloo's soul is invited to the Divine Domain, it is possible to act without remembering any load, unlike the demon kings who learn to load their thoughts and senses.

"Eh!

The underwater that makes me happy in the ceiling with the bander praised. Look up at that, soothing body shaped demon king and bunder.

'I hope Ulrika doesn't get a height phobia. By the way, don't you want to go into the workshop?

"I'm in the middle of graduation right now, so I didn't want to.... I thought it was too early for emotional education."

'Oh... speaking of which, you did'

That's what Bocol tells me, and the memories I share with the other use demon kings finally start to function well. Apparently, the glitch while the main body was in the divine domain was more harmful than Vandaloo was aware.

Just for a few moments... we should deal with and overcome the small harm before it becomes a great deal of damage.

Around that time, there was a ceremony in the workshop that Bocol regarded as a graduation ceremony.

"Congratulations, gentlemen."

Even today Luciliano, with his proud mustache, smiles at several former criminal experiments.

"You're experimental animals today... graduating from guinea pigs. By your work, my research... and my master's purpose has moved a lot forward! I can tell you that this is the same thing that made a great contribution to the Vidal Demon Empire.

Come on, pick it up. This is what you wanted!

And at the top of the bundle of documents that Luciliano offered to one of his former experimental subjects was written 'Human Rights'.
