The Death Mage Who Doesn’t Want a Fourth Time

The matter of the rabbit was settled for now, but besides his, there were other things besides bothering Vandaloo.

"How to be stronger now, that's the problem"

It is my own training.

"Do we need to be stronger than that?

In response to this Vandaloo problem, Randolph said so unexpectedly. Meorilis nods at his words as he thinks the same way.

They defeated the Demon King and saved the world when the brave man said, "I want to be stronger! I guess I feel like I heard you say." And since it is, the two of us have the best doubts.

"Absolutely."

But Vandaloo wasn't happy with his strength now.

"At the moment I may count as one of the strongest in this world. But Alda and Heinz think they can take me down, so they should be trying to take me down."

Vandaloo also doesn't consider himself "weak" even though he defeated Gudulanis, the Demon King, even though he was incomplete. But I don't think anyone can beat me anymore.

"It can be their mistake. I thought I could, but I couldn't actually. That's how the ruined people can't count east and west now. Your story tells me God is making the same mistake."

But Randolph's claims were also convincing. Because both Rodocorte and Alda are repeating it.

Vandaloo still exists here as a result of the mistakes they made in that way.

"That's true, but I've never been able to cut through without struggling, either."

Believers of the gods of the Alda forces to the reincarnated who are sent in. Against them, Vandaloo hasn't always won at his leisure either.

If he had failed to prepare or make an effort to be strong, if he had been unluckier, Vandaloo could have been defeated.... At least, yes, Vandaloo himself thinks.

"If Alda really wanted to beat me, it would be dangerous to assume it was a mistake and do nothing."

Vandaloo was wondering if the Alda forces had any secrets. In fact, the Alda forces have no secret whatsoever, and even if they just assumed they could win, they also think that they should be prepared for it.

Because Alda has a shard of the soul of Gudulanis, the Demon King.

According to "Goddess of Life and Love" Vida, the shards of the soul of the demon king Gudulanis were held by Vida and Arda, the great gods who survived the battle against the demon king, and Rhodocorte, who was distancing himself from this world in case he avoided the complete resurrection of Gudulanis.

Later, Arda, who beat Vida in a dispute between Vida and Arda, also came to manage the shards of Gdulanis' soul that she managed.

And since what was planted in the Rokdo Saint was that he was a reincarnator, and Heinz and the others did not know about the Rokdo Saint, it can be inferred that it was Rodcorte who planted the shards of Gudulanis' soul in the Rokdo Saint, and that Arda was not involved.

That can also be interpreted as proof that Alda is managing Gudulannis' soul shards correctly as a god... Vandaloo didn't think so.

"Alda has intact seals on Gudulanis' soul shards, including what he took from Vida. I would have recovered the shards that Rhodocorte managed... and not necessarily freed them during the fight against us."

Alda had 'up until now' managed Gudulanis' soul shards correctly. But by Rodcorte, if Gudulanis can fight well against his Vandaloo opponents, and most importantly, he knew that Vandaloo can defeat the liberated Gudulanis.

So maybe Arda will use Gudulanis for the fight. It's just that if the rest of us heard this statement by Vandaloo, we'd call it "outrageous". The same way Heinz complained to Vandaloo, who devoured Gudulannis' soul, that one day the Demon King might be resurrected from you.

"Of course, this is assuming the worst that can happen in a war against the Holy Nation of Amid. I'm not going to sue the world wide."

"Well, I certainly don't have any proof... because I don't normally know what God usually does"

"The purpose of the story is whether or not there is a need for special training. And I knew enough was needed."

It could be to fight the remainder of Gudulanis' soul fragments. Randolph, who understood it, looked up.

In the previous battle, he was finally able to deal with the artificial spirits created by Gudulanis with his witchcraft and cheat abilities in one piece and could not fight Gudulanis body properly.

There will also be the impact of all the long battles with his underground opponents, but Randolph couldn't deny his lack of strength more than that.

Yes, he is the S-class adventurer 'true' Randolph.

"... chip. I saw footage of the demon king using it, but I don't think I can beat Gudulannis either."

When Randolph asked with his gaze, Schneider looked so bitter and shook his neck to the side.

Seeing, both the boner and the Kunochen split, Lisana, who was originally an evil god, shook her neck to the side and replied, "I can't".

"For one soul shard... we might be able to do something depending on the body being used. I hope we get Vida down."

"I was wondering if it would be possible to buy time without defeating one shard as well. Most importantly, in that case, we cannot deny the possibility of hindrance to the service of the great Vandaloo"

It was Darcia and Gufadgaan who answered that. Darcia is able to demonstrate high combat ability by unloading the Vida in addition to transforming into a specially made flesh. Whatever the Gdulanis of the complete body, it should probably be possible to defeat it or seal it forcefully if only one shard of soul dwells in the properly chosen flesh.

Gufadgaan also replied that if he manipulated space, it would be impossible to fight and win, but it would be possible to buy time by running around.

But Gfadgaan, like Jane Doe, the ghost of spatial attributes, can favor the situation by following the entire battlefield. It hurts that she has to concentrate on one shard of Gudulanis' soul.

"I mean, Alda... I dare you to call them the Holy Nation of Amid, but if they unleash the sealed soul of Gudulanis, the only way to deal with it for sure is for Vandaloo, our core force, to strike out.

... Not that the emperor himself can question the system of saying core power, but as ignoring it at this time "

As Meorilis summed it up so, Vandaloo is most certain to deal with it when Gudulannis comes out. But Vandaloo is not a soldier in the Vidal Demon Empire, he is an emperor, but also the core of his power.

Incidentally, we have also already received material from the Duke of Gerald Birgit on how to safely seal the [Demon King's Shard] that the assassins were studying.

However, it is unclear whether it will even work on the shards of Gdulanis' soul, as what the Assagis were studying is how to seal the shards of Gdulanis' flesh.

And even if it was valid, the way they discovered it wouldn't activate the seal without knocking down the host of the runaway shards once, so it wouldn't make a difference to fight in the end.

For this reason, in a situation that the Vandaloos fear, the research of the assassins is not entirely useless, but it is dangerous to rely too much, was only a subtle substitute.

"Well, this previous defeat of Gudulanis was so strong because he had multiple soul fragments, such as [instinct] and [powder], and flesh made of flesh fragments alone, and ghosts of the Cheetah-capable Reincarnator, and souls of Six Ways and Edgar.

If it's just one shard of your soul and your properly chosen flesh, you might be able to fight enough with Dr. Randolph, Schneider, and the Bones. "

"That's very convincing of you."

Lighten the air that is about to become serious, by Vandaloo himself, who raised the issue. His words, which devoured not only the flesh of Gudulanis but also the shards of his soul, were felt convincing, as Schneider put it.

"Then if the Holy Nation of Amid had a head to think about, it would be possible to free not only one but two or more pieces of the soul at a time and allow them to dwell in a special flesh, not an appropriate one."

But Randolph's words increased the weight of the air again. There can be enough speculation that Alda, who would have watched this previous battle, will do the same analysis as Vandaloo.

Arda shouldn't want to revive Gudulanis just as well, but the cornered enemy doesn't know what to do. Besides, there is a scarcity of reliable ingredients if Alda's calculations that she thinks are "as good as this" are not crazy.

"... I don't know, you know how much better it would have been to be dealing with Mashkuzar"

Mashkuzar was rational, albeit cold, and more importantly, a man who lived on the same earth. For this reason, as the same person, I believe at the very least that no matter how much we are hunted down, we will not have the means to destroy our own country.

But Alda is a god who sits in the divine domain, not on earth. Even with the demise of the Holy Nation of Amid, his followers exist outside the continent of Bernguia, so they will not disappear. So I can only assume that whatever Alda is doing that's not weird if she's being cornered.

In fact, Schneider and the others don't know, but Alda thinks that if we can defeat the Vandaloos, it doesn't matter if humanity drops to about three thousand or so left, just as it did 100,000 years ago after the battle against Gdulanis ended.

Most of all, I wouldn't have been able to think that way if it hadn't been for the current situation, and it wasn't Schneider who ruled out Mashkuzar, but Alda and his fanatical followers.

"So it's a special training... there's no way for me to be dramatically stronger in the short term anymore"

Even now, experience has been gained from the Demon King of the Uses, who acts with the Explorers of the Vidal Demon Empire. It has also been decided to give Vandaloo the [Demon King's Shard], which Terkatanis cannot collect and continues to manage in each Duke's house and temple.

But that doesn't mean Vandaloo will be dramatically stronger than he is now. So much so that Vandaloo is already stronger.

By analogy in numbers, it can be described as dramatic power-ups if the strength is ten to twenty. But it would only be in the range of error if the strength were a thousand and ten.

"I guess. That is for everyone who has become stronger than a certain amount. I have no choice."

As Randolph says, the growth of those who have become stronger than to some extent becomes dull. That's a completely different issue from the growth wall, where levels rise extremely hard.

The reason for this is that the difference between the experience gained and the experience needed to become stronger next opens up.

At the same one level, the level 1 of a new American adventurer who has experienced a job change for the first time and level 1 of a S-level adventurer who has experienced a job change over and over again, the experience required to get up to level 2 is not comparable.

Even with the same level 1 skills, there is an overwhelming difference between just skills and the experience required to get to two levels in upper skills.

And most importantly, the stronger you become, the fewer enemies of just the right strength you have.

Rank 3 demons can be encountered without taking so much time to enter the demonic realm. But a Rank 10 demon doesn't exist even if it goes to the deepest end of the parallel demonic realm. The more difficult the dungeons, the smaller the number.

Even if we brush our arms in a mock fight in the form of a real battle between people, it still doesn't extend to a real battle in a mock fight.

Just because, even if you deal with all the downgrades, you get less experience, the pace at which the job level rises drops more and more, and the skill level rises even slower.

For this reason, adventurers above A level will choose to be satisfied with their current strengths or spend a long time working out to the tunnel.

In the case of the Schneiders of The Storm of Atrocities, they are looking for and crusading strong enemies such as evil dragons, but they were nevertheless limited.

That's why I'm giving up my special training.

And it's hard to find just the right enemy for Vandaloo. So he gave up his special training.

"Instead, you'll all get my special training."

So I decided to change my mind.

Countless demons exist in far-flung windings in a grey cloud-covered sky, in a desolate wilderness, in a hellish sight dotted with deep red ponds.

The residence of Demon, one of Vandaloo's [in-body worlds].

"Ziaoaoao......"

"Phew... you don't have a cut"

"Not at all. But more than that..."

So Boneman, "Sword King" Borks, and Vigalo were relative to "Enemy".

"Uh-huh."

An indeterminate enemy with red and black liquid wrapping crystalline crystals. Probably a reference to a slime-shaped demon.

"Gigi Gigi"

Enemies equipped with canes, hook claws, and shields in each of the four arms, like a beetle in a human form. I guess I referenced worm-shaped and subhuman demons.

"Rururu"

Enemies like multiple eyes, horns, and wings on a giant tiger's body. As it looks, I think you referenced the beast shaped demon.

It is clear that they are all above rank 13. In addition, all enemies are [abnormally disabled] and have high resistance to attacks by both physics and sorcery, on top of which they also have abnormally high ability to regenerate.

And most importantly, he's a highly skilled man who doesn't fit his appearance.

"More than that, Vandaloo, will you stop imitating that mind-blowing noise?

"Damn... Vigalo, shouldn't you be talking to me in the middle of training"

The identity was the demon king of the use made by Vandaloo.

Yes, what Vandaloo called "my special training" was an almost real-life form of special training he would make against the King of Demons.

Of the Vandaloos, the strongest is Vandaloo. In other words, Vandaloo can be just as good or somewhat effective as a special training partner for his people.

And Vandaloo can create a demon king of his own.

The Demon King of Use will be commensurately stronger if Vandaloo genuinely makes magic for combat. And by choosing the shards to use and changing the way they move, it is possible to set a test to match the training opponent...

"But Vandaloo, I can't help but lose my mind."

But the acting rank is the bottom line because it is Vandaloo's split.

'Really... Ruru, not Funya! Is that better?

"Give me a break"

"Boy, I don't think I have that either."

'Lord, I think silence is better'

'Okay. Okay, here we go.'

As soon as I said that, the demon kings used it to make me feel like I was running cold. And it moved out at a terrible speed.

"Ziuo! [Running water slaughter]!

A bone man intercepts the imminent Slime Shaped Demon King in an unusual motion by separating all the bones of his body. His sword moves and bone blades can even kill the liquid, but the body of the Slime Shaped Demon King...... [Demon King's Blood] is highly viscous. The crystal in the body then freely repositions itself and dodges the blade. In addition, the crystal plays back to normal immediately even if one or two are slashed.

His challenge is to simultaneously amputate all the crystals in the body of the Slime Shaped Demon King.

"[Limits crossed]! [Dragon Killing]! [Shuang Long Hunting]!

"[Steel Wall], [Steel Body], [Disease Flow], [Spiral Penetration]!

Beetle Warrior Demon King and Bourkes make a fierce sword trident sound. Borks, and Vigallo's challenge is simple. Defeating the enemy in front of you.

"Ugh! [Demon Wall]! [Demonic body]!

But Vigallo's opponent, the Demon King of the Users, strikes him with a ranged attack, contrary to his appearance.

Shooting a monstrous ray from an eyeball embedded on the side of the torso, he exhales flames with liquid oil that exhales from his mouth, exhales compressed air and blood from the nose of an elephant that looks like a tail… and emits from the corner the electricity in the body generated by vibrating the muscles at high speeds.

Vigalo must either manage to pack the distance or defeat it with his own scarce means of ranged attack, while preventing it with a shield held by the arms of the Spirit.

The Demon King is almost seriously dealing with the Vigalos. If you get distracted because they're training, you'll get fatal injuries.... In the next moment you receive, [Death Delay] 's magic will prevent you from progressing from fatal injury to death, and you will be drunk to take a bloodpotion,

In fact, the killing spirit emitted by the Demon King is also due to magic that lowered the effect of [the Great Killer Realm] and turned the killing spirit into directivity. But if you don't, there's no way Vandaloo can kill his people.

The Vigalos know that, too, but it hurts to be fatally wounded when they say it will heal, and they take it with the same seriousness as in action because they don't want to be ashamed in front of the demons they're watching.

It should be noted that when the Demon King uses up the enchanted magic, he leaves the horns, bones, meat, etc. used in the ingredients to disappear. But if Vigaro and the others go for it thoroughly, it won't be considered a test breakthrough. Vandaloo will use it again to make the Demon King.

And this isn't a dungeon boss fight, it's a special training, so breaking through a trial doesn't mean there's anything in particular. So much so that there are words of praise and labor from Vandaloo, and that doesn't have to break through the trials.

Moreover, after a short break after breaking through the trials, you will have a reflection session with Vandaloo and the demons who are observing the special training, think about the next special training and work on it.

The purpose of the special training is not to complete the trial, but to defeat the incomplete resurrected Gudulanis.
