The Death Mage Who Doesn’t Want a Fourth Time

Episode 15: A semi-vampire working on the solution of the declining birthrate and a noble pig who burns with ambition

"Besides the training, I'm going to work on solving the problem of the falling birthrate of ghouls.

So Zadiris, who was reported to Vanderlu, had his eyes rounded.

"That's ... well, I'm glad ... I guess it doesn't mean I'm going to kidnap and abduct women from other races and make them ghouls at the ceremony?"

"Is it done, such a thing"

I heard from Dulcia about ghouls circulating in human society, but I thought it was a kind of superstition.

"Um, I can. I haven't done anything in this village. The other races that can be abducted in this magical area are high risk because they're only adventurers. If many adventurers come to get rid of us, it's not about increasing the number of women. ''

Although less efficient than vampires, such as only females, ghouls seem to have a way to convert other races to their kin. It is perhaps the original race style that compensates for low pregnancy and birth rates.

It seems that this settlement had not been done because the village had no chance to obtain women of other races other than adventurers and had not been driven to increase the number of ghoul women at that risk.

"But it's true that children haven't been born in the last decade or so. It doesn't matter if you keep the boy rejuvenated in chronological order and if you can solve it, you're welcome. And everyone is willing to cooperate.

A boy who can understand whether even a surgeon who has mastered the life attribute magic of [juvenile] can do it is likely to be able to do it. "

Something that would otherwise be impossible would be managed by a boy who was just two years old. Nature and Zadiris came to think so.

"I will try as much as I can."

For Vandalu, on the other hand, it was exactly what he said. There is no certainty that he can do it, and his medical knowledge has been taken from medical programs on earth, classrooms at school, and scientists and researchers who have died at the origin.

In other words, in the case of a human being, and in the case of the earth, inspection instruments such as an ultrasonic inspection instrument and a microscope, and knowledge of the origin, it is assumed that magic such as life attributes can be used in addition to them.

In the first place, it is not particularly detailed in the field of obstetrics and gynecology. So to be honest, I'm not confident.

But with Vandaluu's Death Magic, Origin's medical standard has risen to the point that Rodcorte admits. If so, there may be things that can be done with fertility treatment.

"But I have to keep it secret to my mother."

It would be hard for Darussia to find a two-year-old son involved in this field. Vandalu realized that the child would have a secret to his parents.

It was a month since I was able to endure the ghouls' birthrate problem when she could endure the cold of midsummer heat with lush greenery. Vandaloo has easily found out why the ghouls are less likely to become pregnant.

The method is to have ten healthy men and women who are healthy ghouls "let me know." And before and after that, during the period, Vandaloo uses [Emification] and [Life Detection] to check whether their genitals, sperm, egg cells, and internal organs are working properly.

The reasons found were simple and fundamental.

First, ghoul male sperm can only be active in a woman's body for about half a day. This is an overwhelmingly short time compared to race.

Second, the ghoul women's egg cells have only six hours after ovulation. This is an overwhelmingly short time compared to race. Moreover, the cycle of ovulation is the same as that of races, and comes once a month.

"Most of the time, sperm and / or eggs die before they can be fertilized. That's why you can't have children unless you kill them every day."

This is especially true for ghouls who have no way of checking the ovulation cycle, because they can't predict the timing.

"Well, that's right, but Vandalu, why did you say" let's say "about making children?"

"... I was hesitant to say clearly."

Don't look at the "just done" Bilde, lying on a bed that's braided with flexible tree branches.

"On the earth, such research and treatment is usually more mentally demanding for the subject."

Somehow I feel subtle. No, I'm happy and motivated. But it's subtle ... Is n’t it painful? Why do you feel like that?

Probably because they are studying fertility treatment of cute girls. This is the situation in Lambda, where the earth, the origin and the opposite sex have no relation. Something unreasonable. Yes, all because of Rhodocorte.

"Well, why don't you make sure that the sperm and egg don't die?

Birde said that Vandalu was worried about his expressionlessly. She doesn't seem to know what sperm and eggs are, but she's right.

"I can do it"

Yes, extending the life of sperm and eggs is easy. With Vandaluo's death magic, even a deadly wounded human can be put on the ground without dying for days. There is no reason to extend the life of small sperm or eggs.

"That's not the solution!

Bilde jumps up from his couch, swings Vandaloo and cheers. But Vandaloo can't agree with her. Yes, but it's hard to say.

But we need to move forward for a solution.

"So, next time I'd like to find out how to prevent miscarriage ..."

"But if you're pregnant now, you're not in the village ... Okay, we just need to get pregnant."

It was Vandaloo that made me feel subtle to the shining Bilde smile.

Bilde became pregnant soon after having the baby sperm and ovum prolong their life using death-attribute magic. Feeling a certain vitality in the fertilized eggs, Vandalou was convinced that the problem was again that the sperm and eggs stopped working too soon.

He also found out why ghoul women frequently have miscarriages early in pregnancy.

The vitality of the fertilized egg is weak.

Examining with [Emperization], there are no external factors such as illness, and there is no cause for Bildes and their mothers. Simply, the vitality of fertilized eggs is weak.

In addition, the mother's strong vitality seems to attack fertilized eggs and fetuses in the womb, recognizing them as foreign substances.

This is why miscarriages occur frequently during early pregnancy.

And once the cause is known, it's easy. This also prevents death of fertilized eggs and fetuses by death attribute magic. Procrastinate and wait for the fetus to survive on its own.

And in December, when the exhaled breath became white, the results came out.

"Birde and others were pleased with the endorsement that they were all right. Of course, not only Bildes but everyone in the village was pleased."

"Um. Thanks to the boy, this village will be able to welcome new friends. Thank you very much."

Basdia, Zadiris, and Vandalu were gathered in a pit dwelling.

"I knew it would be stable after about three months of life extension measures. Of course, I had to take care of it."

Beyond the third month of pregnancy, Ghoul's fetus showed vitality so vigorously as to what its weakness had been. Observe the progress until the births give birth, but there is no need to look every day.

Ghoul's child-building seemed to be a matter of whether she could become pregnant and, if it could, survive the first three months.

"Yes. We've been told from ancient times that we can't make children outside of the Makai, but if we go well we can live outside the Makai."

The demon is activated in the demon environment, breeds more vigorously than when living outside, and the child grows faster and stronger. The competition for survival is fierce, and no matter how many adventurers hunt, the monsters of Makai will not be extinct.

The ghouls, who are half-monsters, are also affected by the demon boundaries. He was still suffering from the declining birthrate problem.

So it is hopeless to leave offspring outside of the Makai. For this reason, ghouls have lived in a magical territory where there are many monsters to feed on, but at the same time there are more monsters than themselves.

"After that, I can only make magic items with magic to delay the suspension of sperm and ova and magic to delay the death of the fetus."

"Oh, I can't always rely on Van."

We now know how to solve the ghoul birthrate problem and can do it. However, for that to happen, it is essential that Vandaloo cast magic on female ghouls every day.

Vandaloo is going to the Orbaum election kingdom, so the time he can do is limited. And it's mentally painful to repeat this situation.

"But boys learn magic very fast, but they're not good at learning techniques like alchemy."

As Zadiris puts it, Vandalou, who is currently trying to learn alchemy, did not go well.

This lambda has two types of art. One is attribute magic. The other is techniques such as alchemy and spirit magic.

Attribute magic simply means which attributes are compatible and how much you can master. For example, Zadiris has aptitude for the attributes of light and wind, and Vandaloo has an aptitude for death.

And techniques such as alchemy and spirit magic are skills that demonstrate the use of attribute magic that you have the aptitude for.

For example, in the case of spirit magic, it is a technique that activates magic by communicating with a spirit of an attribute that he or she has aptitude for, and passing on magic to request it.

And alchemy is a skill that allows you to use various catalysts with magic and magic to formulate medicines and create magic items.

Spirit magic is impossible because there are no spirits with death attributes, but if you master alchemy, Vandaloo can create magic items with death attributes.

In fact, at the origin, the magic was squeezed out of Vandaloo, creating countless magic items. Of course, Vandalou, who was hijacking his physical freedom, does not know the technique. The knowledge gained from the spirits of the researchers interviewed at Origin is useless, as it is premised on Origin's advanced science and technology and the presence of equipment for making magic items.

For this reason, I am learning Zadiris's alchemy from scratch, but at the moment I am more difficult than [Non-Attribute Magic] and [Magic Control].

"If this is the case, maybe my departure will be next year again.

Speaking of which, is Basdia good? I can be a child now because I am there. ''

Basdia, like Bilde, did not participate in Vandaloo's research and was not yet pregnant. I was so worried that I wanted to get pregnant, and when I asked, I was surprised and said, "No, it's still good."

"If you get pregnant now, you won't be able to be a benchtop when trying to see if the magic items that Van makes after learning alchemy really work."

"Well, yes, but are you old?"

Ghoul women stop aging at the age of their first pregnancy. So, Basdia, who had never been pregnant, looked like she was 25 years old ... no, she was already 26 years old.

Well, it looks beautiful and young, so Vandaloo thought he didn't need to worry for a few years yet.

"Is it okay? I've already got results if I'm certain, and the boy says," And you don't have to worry about it even on the bench. "

"Mom, it's okay. Van told me that I don't mind if I look a little older."

"... In that way, the boy sounds like a partner."

"... It will take more than 10 years, even if it is short, so don't worry and get pregnant!"

At one time, the misunderstanding that Vandaloo and Zadiris had such a relationship prevailed in the village, but it should have been solved. Basdia shook his head at them, saying what they were saying.

"I wasn't saying that. I'm not trying to make a child with Van. I'm just looking for a reward by becoming an experimental bench."

"In return?"

Vandalou bowed to Basdia's words. Because he had no connection with the monetary economy since he started living in this settlement, he had forgotten such an idea. …… Well, it is better to say that there has been no connection since birth.

"Oh, I want to ask Van for my second child."

"... isn't that a demanding requirement for a two-year-old?"

"Okay, I'll wait until the van can do it."

"Hmm, isn't that good, boy?"

"No, not good"

Certainly, once you become pregnant, the aging of Basdia stops. After that, he stayed young until he was nearly 300 years old. So we can wait for more than ten years with the appearance of that time until Vendaloo reaches the second sex.

However, in the early teens, there is no reason to have children.

"I guess you should be aware of your parents' responsibilities in your early teens. I'm not a race, I'm a dampir born between a vampire and a dark elf. I don't know. "

"Because of the peace, the new race of our goddess Vida can basically be mixed with all races."

"Is that so. It's safe, Van."

"Oh, the excuse to reconsider has disappeared."

Easy problem solving. Wisdom of the elderly.

"And Van, you're a man, so you don't have to worry about your parents' responsibilities or awareness."

"Well, the role of a man is to hunt for food and eat outside of life. It is a woman's job to raise children."

"No, that's Ghoul's common sense."

Is the strictness of the ghoul society that life can not be said to be convenient for men?

"No, we're ghouls."

"I know. But you don't know if your newborn is a ghoul. It's definitely ghoul if you're a race, but I'm a dumpey."

"Mmm, did you get one?"

That said, Basdia has not given up.

"Then I won't say it's as soon as I can, because it's fine when Van is concerned, he will live much longer than race.

And by that time I might have changed my mind. ''

Obviously, in the latter half, it was a way to prevent Vandalu from refusing on this occasion, but no way, I couldn't deny that "I'm not going to change my mind", so I nodded with "Crazy".

"At that time, please do with my daughter."

"Can you hold your breath a little? I can't admire chasing a two-year-old at night."

"Well, why would the great-grandson be a boy with a boy?

So boy. By the way, if I have a daughter in the future, can I ask for the daughter's first partner? "

"What are you saying, Mom! Thinking about my age, she's over 290, she's saying that my time was a birth!"

"Well, yes, but I feel like I'm young recently. I'll be fine a few times later."

"Where did that conviction come from? Did you forget that two years ago you couldn't use magic because of your age and you were on the verge of being caught by adventurers?"

Zadiris, who doesn't seem to have a bit of a bomb spell and withdraws, says Basdia, who stops his mother, who is usually near the end of his life. Her dismay, who doesn't know that her mother has been [juvenied] to the same age as she looks to Vanderlu, doesn't seem to calm down at all.

Looking at it, Vandaloo biting a cookie made of acorn flour saw Basdia, who had been swinging himself a while ago, swung by Zadiris, and thought that he was a mother and child after all. Later, it was a bit smooth.

The only time I realized that wasn't the case was when I swallowed the acorn cookie in my mouth.

Vandaloo has gained the [Episode] skill!

Huh. Arrows fly with their ears.

"Kachia, Goblin Archer is aiming!"

"Somehow, Ricken!"

"I don't say crazy ...!"

Five adventurers were fighting violently with the goblins, a herd of demons, including the goblins.

Ricken, yelled at by Katya, a female adventurer who barely avoided the goblin archer's arrow, fired an arrow with a squeezed bow, which was prevented by a hobgoblin guarding Kobolt Mage.

Yes, not only goblins but also Kobold and hobgoblins are mixed in this group.

In dungeons, rabbits are horns, and monsters do not cooperate with other races in ordinary magical boundaries. It's not unnatural to find a hobgoblin that is symbiotic with a goblin, but Kobold's presence is out of place.

There is no idea how monsters can help each other. Even if a common enemy, an adventurer, is there, we don't even think of a joint front.

Each other is a natural enemy and each is a prey.

Three if there are exceptions. One is being manipulated by humans. The legendary Tamer followed a monster of scale beyond herd. However, there is no reason why such a legendary tamer must be able to entice monsters.

Then the second.

"Is it true that he also appeared in the King !?"

Kachia flashes a bastard sword at an unstoppable speed, releases a [rotating slash], and collects and cuts off two Goblin Soldiers.

"King !? Bad joke!"

A fellow shieldman struck and killed Kobolt Rogue with his proud shield, but he couldn't deny his bad feeling.

Demons of different races cooperate when they are dominated by a stronger monster. An individual who has strong wisdom to control monsters other than himself and desire to communicate with humans.

The appearance of an individual bearing the name of King, a reigning person who rarely appears in subhuman demons.

The threat is expressed in the form of a disaster designation by the Adventurer's Guild.

If that were to come, guess from the fact that Goblin and Kobold are fighting themselves together.

"Bugoooooooo!"

In support of the worst speculation, a group of giants emerged from the depths of the jungle, raising a roar that resembled a pig's cry, but with a different level of power.

Oak. It's an oak knight that has been solidified with armor and shield. And behind it is to look down calmly-.

"That's the third!"

In order to gain time for his friends to escape, at least to pride himself in the shield job, he was a man confronted by using [Ishibe] and [Ishishield] 's martial arts, but it was like taking an avalanche alone.

Bogogan was listening to reports from his entourage and his sons, entrusted to a throne made with the plant monster Trent, looking up at the oak, which is about two meters in size.

"Boogie, Boomoogy, Fugogo, Boomo"

Weapon and armor production seems to be on track. He says that all orcs and slaves have appropriate weapons and reserves are sufficient. However, it seems that one creator Kobolt has failed.

"Boooooo! Boomon! Boogie!"

The training of the soldiers is going well, and Bughongan's command is to shatter the enemy without fear of death. Of course, it is a lower race, so it is better to use usable pieces than unusable ones.

"Bugogogong, Buggigi, Bugueboboho! Buchhoho!"

The number of slaves seems to be a little short. Goblins and Kobolds grow like insects, but they seemed to have caught up since they had fallen a lot when they attacked a ghoul settlement.

He was instructed to recruit appropriately, but from outside the settlement's territory.

"Bugogogo, Bumooo, Fuboobuguigagi"

And it seems like she still lacks women. If you can't use it, goblins and Kobold females should be satisfied. In fact, most of the stray oaks are increasing in that way.

However, there is a better woman here, so if you look at it, you will not be able to endure it.

"Bugo ..."

I sigh unintentionally. Both goblin and precious race females will be determined to be inferior, such as pups with impotence. I don't know why.

However, it is the ruler who controls the morons and the fact that it is necessary to increase the number of those who act as pieces.

`` Bugo, Gurufugogobomomo ''

Any further raids on the ghoul settlements may raise the possibility of noticing those settlements. Soon he will attack the ghoul settlement again, telling him to capture the ghoul females alive, and spill a grumbling smile with Gubub, as well as the orcs who claim that the woman is not enough.

Even an oak mage, who is much smarter than a normal oak, can't curb his desires. This was Buggan, and she was amazed at the oak.

Indeed, why are sub-tribes so weak, stupid, and poor?

No, I guess that's why I have to be dominated by a noble being like me.

Yes, we are the upper species of oak, Noble Oak.

By stroking his golden mushroom-inspired hair, Bugogann changed his mind and tolerated all the folly of his minions.

Goblins, Kobolts, and orcs rarely have King-named commanders. But they are only kings within their race.

On the other hand, the upper race is a race in which the whole race is better than the lower race. High Goblin, High Kobold, Noble Oak. They boast extraordinary strength and longevity compared to lower races.

Noble orcs named ironically noble at least rank six because their appearance resembled fat fat nobles. Considering that a regular orc ranks 3, its combat strength is completely different.

High intelligence and longevity. Can use magic. And it has the power to follow lower races unconditionally. Even in the chosen oak king, kneel in front of the mediocre noble orc.

Bugogan came from the Emblem of Noble Oak, which is not the jungle-like little magical area where the Noble Oak reigns, but the great magical area that covers the southern part of Banggaia.

However, as a loser who lost to the power struggle.

However, when Bugugan, who survived the mountains, reached the jungle, the losers turned into ambitious conquerors.

Build your own empire with subordinates and eventually conquer the nation. With that goal in mind, Bugogan worked hard and hard.

He subordinated all of the orc settlements that existed in the Makai, but those with low intelligence eliminated the stupid orcs, which were inferior to the monkeys, and sorted out some clever individuals to higher ranks. In order to increase the number, she robbed goblins and Kobold females, and in order to increase her excellent feats, Bugorgan himself made her son out of the ugly and filthy goblin female belly.

Nevertheless, they have hidden their existence from ghouls and adventurers and have accumulated power. Over the past decade, the Bugugan Empire has finally become a major force.

Three sons survived as a result of thinning out the failures, three hundred orcs, servants who survived the training, and about one hundred slaves, Goblins and Kobolts, respectively. Dozens of treasures and other monsters tame.

If the adventurer's guild knows this number, they will promptly request an emergency disaster designation. It must rake in B and above adventurers from inside and outside the country. So, Bugoghan has kept his adventurers away. Even when attacking, he is trying to catch or kill everything, so he is thorough on his minions.

And Ghoul is tired of the fact that it is troublesome for Bogogan to deal with other than adventurers. Ghoul is as strong as an oak as an individual, but smart. Goblins and Kobolds begin to fight each other in the same race if their groups are different, but Ghoul fights easily in front of a common enemy, discarding past conflicts.

I don't think I'll lose, but it's inevitable that the number of Buggan minions will drop sharply. Therefore, when attacking the ghoul, I have been thoroughly careful not to leave any small settlements.

The worst of the ghoul settlements is a hundred-person settlement led by an old ghoul mage. The number is large and the quality of each habit is high. Until the reign of Bugogan, the oak was only a tasty but tasty meat for the village's ghoul.

I didn't want to set up such a ghoul mage settlement. However, good news for Bugorgan came from Kobolt who enslaved it.

Soon, the ghoul mage in question seems to die in life.

"Bumomomo, Fugofugoho"

As Bugugan ordered, the only non-orcish monster in the throne, an old Kobolt with white hair, came out one step ahead.

The old Kobold was Kobold Shaman, a rare mediator at the Great Demonstration in the south beyond the mountains where Bugogan was.

He communicated with the spirit with his abilities and brought Kobayashi a number of prophecies, conserving Kobolt's position in the Empire by contributing to Bugugan. One of the prophecies brought by Kobolt Sherman is that Ghoulmage will soon die of aging.

But Kobold Shaman's ears were lying down and his shoulders were trembling. He mutters with Mogomogo in a long, quiet voice, but does not seem to be communicating with the spirit separately.

Oak Mage hears the murmur and translates Kobold Sherman's report to Bugugan.

"Ghoulmage, who is supposed to die from aging, is alive for some reason. You will not die unless you kill him. I don't know why, recently somehow the spirits don't listen to me, so I don't know what's going on in the village. '

Upon hearing it, Bugugan meditated for a moment while stroking his hair with his fingers ... grabbing his beloved evil sword standing against the throne and swinging down at Kobolt Shaman.

"Gabby!"

He orders a Kobold Sherman corpse, which has been cut in half from the brain to the waist in a single shot, to add food, and wipes the blood from the evil sword with a cloth.

It was a low grade Kobolt, but it was useful, but what was the report? Isn't the senile man, not a ghoul mage? Indeed, this is a two-legged dog.

"Bugogoo! Bubbio, Bugbuon, Buchoch, Buhibumo!"

Bugugan thought this day would end with just bad things, but there was good news.

Bubobio, the eldest son of Buggan, who led a slave and me to capture the adventurers and take them away, successfully captured the adventurers.

One of the five males died, but the remaining one male and three females were slightly hurt but were taken alive.

We are excited that the adventurer has been caught, especially that there are three females in it.

"Bugob, Buchhib, Buhhohibhibuhi"

But first, let's vomit information on the human society to conquer. There are not a few human females that can be destroyed when seeded overnight.

"Buchho"

But after that, the three females became the mother and the males the food. In particular, he was rewarded for giving Bouvovio his credit to one of the three females.

Reputation punishment is necessary for control.

After a week.

Even in humid jungle, Vandalou, who had been making alchemy catalysts, had been crushing and crushing gorgeous herbs, ores and magic stones while sucking relatively clear winter air.

"Boy, what time will you gain skills if you don't concentrate more ...?

Zadiris, who was watching the skill of Vandalu, was puzzled by his strange appearance, trying to watch him stop.

He stares at the empty space, nods, shakes his head, and makes a voice that can be heard by a hammer, such as "Hah" or "Hey".

"Boy, have you packed your roots too much? Should you keep your training around here?"

Zadiris, worried that he had trained too much, replied a little hesitantly, but apparently he was not tired and watching his hallucinations, and Vandalou turned her head around and looked at her.

`` Now, I have been taught by the spirit of Kobolt Shaman, but it seems that there is a large oak village where Noble Orc reigns behind this magical area, and I think that this village is in the way.

Failure due to information concealment by Bugogan and information leakage by spirits.
