The Death Mage Who Doesn’t Want a Fourth Time
Episode 55: It seems that insects are coming into the fire since autumn
[Green Wind Spear] Riley was an ordinary adventurer everywhere except for his talent.
He was an adventurer from a commoner because he was confident in his arms. The purpose is "I want to make money." And he didn't say it, but he had the dream and hope that he might be the hero of Hero Tan heard as a child.
And while he was still running, he witnessed the moment when Heinz registered as an adventurer. Riley, who met the younger boy, decided to party with him.
At the party, a dwarf female shield, an intelligent scouting youthful bower, and a spiritual magic elf beautiful woman joined the group, and came to call himself a [five-colored blade].
Like the legend of heroes, the four other than Riley are also talented, and [Goshiki Blade] is struggling to get rid of the goblin. Became.
And in the next year, he was promoted to a class C that came out of the head of an average adventurer. In his third year, he unleashed his first dungeon, gained valuable magic items and honors, and promoted party leader Heinz to B-grade. From the magic sword I got at that time, two names, [Blue Flame Sword], were given.
From that time on, Riley noticed that he had a depressed feeling toward Heinz.
I have talent, my face is as good as my ability. The party leader is Heinz, but why do I get treated like an extra for him?
It is Heinz alone who was promoted to B class in the dungeon capture. Riley also got the Mithril spear, who manipulated the wind, with green jewels, but two were not named.
Nobles and merchants wanted to make connections with the talented Heinz, who was promoted to a B-class adventurer in his teens, and no matter what the officer or exclusive contract was, a better woman came. The adventurer's guild's receptionist also moisturizes her eyes when she sees him.
On the other hand, he is only seen as a "Friend of Heinz" Riley. It seems as if the sign “Heinz Mate” is on his face as well.
And Riley knew that the protagonist of the folklore song was Heinz, not herself.
Life's greatest setback and humiliation. But Riley wouldn't get out of the Five Colored Blades. "That's what it was," he may have compromised, like many other adventurers, and remained a Heinz companion.
But he entered with a decisive request.
The content was to catch a vampire and a dark elf witch who gave in to the temptation and gave birth to a dumb-peel. It was an unusual request, but when I tried it, it was a success.
Witches were not their enemies, neither in witchcraft nor in bows, and no vampires appeared. Heinz stomachs a sword in her sheath, and that's it.
After that I got paid and left the town.
However, Heinz began to think more from that request and began to say that Riley could not understand.
He had a bad feeling, but remembered that he had been thinking for a while when he cut the goblin female she was in when she was just an adventurer, and forcibly thought that she would get over.
It turned out to be wrong when Heinz kicked a party invitation hosted by a big nobleman.
"Tonight is also the festival of Arda. I would like to hear the heroic hero who defeated and purified the evil witch."
Heinz replied to the lord's angel, saying no.
The nobleman was one of the most prominent of the Milg shield countries in which they were, especially one who influenced the adventurer's guild.
"Why do you refuse to invite such an opponent? I've said many times that raising the rank is a hassle, even if it's troublesome to the social world!"
Heinz replied to Riley.
"I don't think she was a witch. This country ... I don't know if Arda was right."
The moment I heard it, Riley thought (Oh, no, I can't keep up with this guy).
We are adventurers. At the request, fight monsters and earn money. After being promoted, he gains honorary fame, retires when he gets older and grows older, and lives comfortably in his own life.
I do not say that I do not pursue a dream that has an ideal. Even Riley dreamed of the hero of a heroic song. So I don't want to worry about others.
So it's good that Heinz has an ideal, a dream, a sense of justice. But why do I have to lose money for that?
Oh, right. You are a genius. Surely in the future, the bard will sing along with the main character's folklore song.
Even if you refuse the invitation of a big noble, you will surely be fine. Whether you question the country's values and religion, or even go to the election of Orbaum, which recognizes Dampir as a human being, you will surely overcome problems with the power of belief and bond.
In addition, it will run up to A class and S class, and honors, money, status, and women will come one after another.
But I am definitely different. I can't imagine going to an enemy country that has been fighting for hundreds of years and saying that the adventurer doesn't have a country, the unwritten law will be kept. Even if I get over it and struggle to get over it, I'm still a Riley from Heinz's buddy, right?
Do not be silly!
Riley, who escaped from the Five Colored Blades, signed an exclusive contract with the big nobleman, Earl Palpapek.
Since then, he has been promoted to B class, and has two names, Riley of [Green Spear]. All because of the influence of Earl Palpapek. Riley didn't mind. Originally I had that much ability, and it wasn't recognized because Heinz was prominent. In him it was true.
However, he was not lucky than Heinz.
The best is cheeky and doesn't listen. Anyone who listens can't use it.
I couldn't help but think that the guys would come together to raise my name and worked at solo or extraordinary parties.
Along the way, the high priest, who had previously asked for the witch, and the fellow damper, and the ghouls under his squad, went to subjugation and ended up with little effort.
It wasn't until Riley got stinged again.
Riley, who boiled herself away from being able to gather at all, came up with the idea of buying slaves and raising them as adventurers.
I heard that the legendary hero Bellwood had rehabilitated a criminal slave of the time, and there was an episode that said the slave grew up as a dependable companion and constantly protected him on the battlefield.
Riley began to buy combat slaves with the money she had saved and raised them as adventurers. The slaves, unlike previous adventurers, were obedient to him and usable as such. However, he couldn't follow B-class adventurer Riley with a half-hearted arm.
Even if I changed jobs to [Slaves] and gained [Slave Enhancement] skills, it was only a little better.
In addition, in the Milg Shield, which is a member of the Amid Empire, human rights are granted to slaves as well as to the Empire. Very unscrupulous use can be guilty of a crime, and slaves of the new tribe of Vida, which do not matter, are few in the western part of the continent.
And Riley arrived at a criminal slave. As a result, she was ousted from her employer, Earl Palpapek, but she was unaware.
He knew he wasn't cut by the Earl as a card, but by himself.
"Even Count Palpapek is stupid! I hope he can return to the Military if he raises his credit during the expedition, but he's like a turtle in his house.
It's nice to understand, but I don't want to take the opportunity to raise my name. ''
"But, thanks to that, Commander Legston had introduced us to General Maubit. After all, Riley wasn't a vessel that ended with the Countess of the Dependent."
Messara, an over-sex female magician. She grew young and became a guru of the magician guild, but she kept her youth and good looks at her evil tactics sealed in a forbidden archive, and kidnapped more than a dozen children from the village if she knew it. And killing. It is a continuous bizarre murderer who said that the whole body was exposed to the living blood.
"Hey, absolutely. Plus, big brothers are now expected across the country to be the successors of tragedy heroes, and if you do well, will you get an artifact spear?" It ’s not a dream to promote S-class. ”
The little boy's scout, former C-class adventurer Genie. He was a talented solo adventurer, but behind him trapped other adventurers, taking his achievements and property with his life, tricking a newcomer adventurer into a slaver behind the scenes It is an outer road that has been caught by the adventurer's guild after repeated evils such as.
“…………”
At first glance, Flark, a shield man, looks more serious than the previous two. But she is still a criminal slave. The mercenaries they belonged to were usually bandit-earning groups, and he was the deputy commander there. More than two people killed directly.
The reputation of Riley, who is partying with only such criminal slaves, has deteriorated regardless of the fulfillment of the commission.
Therefore, if you believe that you cannot be promoted to Class A, and if you raise your credit and aim for a reversal in this expedition, Earl Palpapek, who has an exclusive contract, will not participate in the expedition, and even if Riley does not help individually, I'm sorry.
Looking for some way to raise his credit, he overhears the story that the current military commander, Count Regston, is looking for a good adventurer to join the expedition. When I got on that story, it went like a joke.
In the adventurer's guild, he was promoted to Class A, and thanks to the termination of his exclusive contract from Earl Palpapek, he did not have to pay a huge penalty, and successfully met with Military Legston.
He was hired by General Maubitt, the commander of the expedition. And the existence behind the general ...
"But is it good? I'm the return of Mikhail of [Hikami Spear] and Riley of [Green Spear]. Did you deal with me and your boss is not angry?"
The questioned vampire smiled with a bitter smile.
"I don't care. We're all the same guys on this expedition, right?"
The vampires under the control of the original vampire, Tenesia, took advantage of Riley's merit and offered a deal. "Do you want to be a hero?"
And Riley took the invitation.
"Oh, no."
I want Riley, first and foremost, for gold. So, as a courtesy, honor the first capture of this border mountain tunnel.
And on the expedition, she has the evil dampiel and the credit to defeat the two vampires who are traitors for the vampires.
If things go well, Riley will sign an exclusive contract with the Earl of Maubit, and by the time he retires, he will have the title and live brilliantly in the Amid Empire.
I don't care if my home country suffers as a result of this expedition.
What the vampires can get is the convenience of being able to gain the power of the expedition by becoming an ally, the bait to lure the target, Dampiel, and the strength.
"Or do you want immortality?"
In one word of the vampire, Messara looked lustful, but Riley grinned and shook his head.
"Stop, I like honors in the world"
Who will be a vampire? I don't want to be used on my chin for hundreds of years. So look at the vampire while thinking inside.
"That's a pity"
The vampire withdrew easily while seeing Riley's true intentions. They said that they could use it only during this expedition, so there is no reason to stick.
"Brother, it's time to exit!"
Where Genny pointed, the tunnel was blocked by countless rocks. However, his nose did not miss the fresh air entering through the gap between the rocks.
Messara explores the other side of the rock with exploration magic. Then there was a small reaction.
"I have some undead."
"Is it strong?"
"No. The rank is at best 2 at best."
"That's okay. Come down, it's my turn with this kind of magic spear Zephyr."
Riley holds his proud magic spear Zephyr and focuses his spirit. The wind blows in the tunnel.
"[Hipaku spiral thrust]!"
Advanced martial arts that deliver a spinning thrust at high speed with enhanced penetration by the function of the magic spear Zephyr with the magic of wind attribute.
Gagagagagagagagagagagagaga! !
The hard rock wall, which may be dozens of tons, breaks and blows off easily each time Riley unleashes his spear.
And the flakes dive into the hole made and ensure safety.
“…………”
"What, there's no undead."
However, beyond the rocks, wilderness and forests that seemed to be slightly desolated only spread, and there was no appearance like an undead.
"Oh, oh? Oh, it's weird ... I guess you hit the rock you blew off?"
A piece of rock that Riley crushed scatters around. Even if it is a piece, it is as big as a person, and if it hits, it may be possible to defeat it at rank 2 or so.
"Is that so too ... Well, this is the air of an unexplored land. It's a good wind, but what should I write in my autobiography?"
"In that autobiography, I ask you not to write about us."
The vampires pass by Riley, who shines with her grin. They put out a magic item in the shape of a compass from their bosom and started measuring something with red liquid on it.
"Are you the vampire's husband?
"It's a magic item to find the vampire's whereabouts. Now you know where the traitors are."
Neither did the vampires know exactly where the dumpers and traitors were. So, look for the destination of the expedition.
If Count Palpapek learns about this, he will laugh at such a sloppy operation that it cannot be investigated in advance, and will be discouraged by himself who cannot stop it.
"Selcrent's blood was unresponsive. Did he die? Is he out of range?"
"From here the exploration reaches the election of Orbaum. You should be considered killed."
"What about Eleonora?"
"Wait, measure now"
The newly stored Eleonora's blood is applied to a magic item to see the reaction.
"Yes, it's northeast from here ... there's Tarosheim on record."
"Well, what about Dumpel and Ghoul in that ruin?"
"Hey! That's convenient!"
Listening to the conversation between the vampires, Riley distorted her lips.
"I am a modern hero, recovering the failure of the Milg shield country and the hero Michael two hundred years ago!
It's what you want! The goddess of fate is smiling at me! "
Vandalou took oil from the seeds of the immortalized defeated flower, so he challenged homemade mayonnaise.
Giga bird eggs, fruit vinegar, and oil. The ingredients are complete. The cooking utensils are not available, but I also made them.
An iron bowl, a hand mixer ... a type golem (made of iron) and a very heavy class, but it doesn't bother you thanks to its [mystery] skill and high ability.
And mix it endlessly. Stir in the oil slowly and thoroughly. Cool with the technique of [oniki], a pale flame that takes heat on the way, and mix again.
"Vandaloo, are you okay?
"Huh? Of course."
Vandalu doesn't know why he's worried about Darussia, but his expression, illuminated by a blazing blue flame with no expression and silence, looks unhealthy and unhealthy, to say the least. It's natural to be worried.
"Hey, is that a seasoning? If, can't you make a golem like defeat flower oil, laver or kelp?
In the production of defeated flower oil, Vandaloo was quickly industrializing with golems and magic items. "I will do that in the future," he replied to Darussia, who asked if he could do the same.
"To make mayonnaise, you need to add the oil slowly instead of adding it all at once. So if you go to the golem, it won't turn into mayonnaise."
Golems made by Vandaloo are more applicable than golems made with normal alchemy, but they are not universal.
You can't tell exactly how much oil you need to put in unless you tell Vandaloo.
Hand mixers, electric fans and massage machines are easy. You only need to limit the moving parts, and move them a little bit faster or later, or tell them how much power you want.
However, when it comes to cooking, Vandaloo must first give specific instructions.
"I wish I had handmade mayonnaise on earth and in the past."
He had experience cooking on the earth, but he never made homemade mayonnaise.
"Well, if you get the hang of it, it's only now because it's going to industrialize with a golem."
I'm going to hold a tasting party before that and ask everyone what they think, but considering the time of miso, fish sauce, kelp and bonito, we can only see the very welcomed future.
Ghoul and giant undead in particular tend to prefer darker flavors. Black goblins, Anubis and Orcas. I feel that it will be quite high due to high blood pressure in the future, but it will be fine because the ecology is different from humans in the first place.
So you may love mayonnaise ... but you might make junkies again. No, it will definitely make it.
But Vandaloo still wanted to eat a dish with mayonnaise.
(And the sister at the exchange asked me to make a new product, which is good.)
"so? Do you rest if you are tired?
"Yes"
Woo ~. And again, only the rotating sound of the hand mixer golem resounds.
"Mr. Vandaloo, do you need anything?"
Eleonora came over there. It was what Bandarou called as a tasting when the mayonnaise was completed.
"Is that ... maybe the illness you are studying now?"
"No, a new seasoning."
Certainly, it doesn't look like a cooking scene to the world, but is that misunderstanding too severe? I'm actually researching diseases.
Many of the inhabitants of this world have no specific knowledge of the pathogen. On the contrary, the majority do not know the presence of microorganisms that are invisible to the naked eye. The only exceptions are intellectuals or those involved in sake brewing and bakers.
That's why Eleonora misunderstood-.
"I'm sorry, I was called to experiment to see if it works for vampires ..."
Apparently it came from a human body experiment.
"No, he asked me to try this mayonnaise."
"That's right. Oh, but I'm sick because I'm going to get any punishment."
"Then, please taste it as punishment."
Already more than a year old, Eleonora was still there. For some reason, she pleads for punishment.
At first, Vandalu, who was tired of dating, was now used to it. Basically, it's punished as punishment.
"Mr. Vandaloo, so in punishment ... don't give blood, or make a day instead of furniture."
It looks like this. Next time, I'm thinking, "Let's go to my rug," and I'm thinking of trying to pillow on my knees.
"Um, Eleonora? I guess it's a bit early for Vandaloo
"Wow! No, it doesn't mean that ...!"
I'm hurrying and shaking my head, so it's unlikely that I'm just the owner.
It's a rabbit and it's almost time for the mayonnaise.
Vinegar is the oil of defeated flower that has become immortalized in eggs of giga birds that did not exist in rabbits, horns, the earth or the origin. Even if it is made into mayonnaise, whether the ratio of the appropriate material is different because the material is different, it was possible to say that it seems to be able to make it more delicious with previous prototypes, but this time it may be a finished product unknown.
For now, first scoop with your finger and lick it, then try a wild vegetable salad.
"Well, taste-"
At last, Vandaloo suddenly interrupted his words.
"Vandaloo?
"Mom, the Virgin Minions Milg Shield seems to be attacking here."
"Oh, yes ..."
"Did you react to the surveillance undead? But you'll know this right away."
Unfortunately, Darussia looks down and Eleonora is surprised. And Vandaloo placed a prototype of mayonnaise.
"So, let's talk together.
I'll explain what the monitoring undead saw and heard. Please listen to the taste of mayonnaise. ''
Will it come early in autumn or winter? Spring next year at the latest.
