The Death Mage Who Doesn’t Want a Fourth Time

Talosheim's total strength is now quite different from when Vandaloo celebrated his third birthday.

Vandalu himself became stronger, but more than that his surroundings were stronger overall.

Ghoul, who has already stayed in rank three, including Birde and Katia, is only the new generation and the Talea profession. Almost everyone is ranked as rank 4, warrior, grappler, archer, little mage, etc.

Many have reached rank 5, such as the Ghoul Barbarian, Ghoul Heavy Warrior, and Ghoul Grappler Adept.

It's a phenomenal growth rate compared to regular ghouls.

The giant undead, who grew only insignificantly for two hundred years, went to dungeons day and night, with most raising their ranks by one or more. The growth of Braga's new species is also rapid.

In addition, Cemetery Bee, whose number has doubled to the stone golem of the Third City Wall. And because of mobility issues, it can only be used as a defense force, but there are about a hundred immortal ents.

And, of course, those who can be called Bandarousan Guards.

She couldn't lose, and she picked up her favorite mace.

"It's no good."

"eh……!?"

"Even if you look incredible, you can't."

Vandaloo told Pauvina, who had a stone mace made to practice for him.

"Oh, I'm not a child anymore!"

"No, I'm still two years old."

"Van is still five years old and smaller than me!"

"... age and size are not important."

The two-year-old Pauvina is now completely beyond the size of Vandaloo in size. Vertical, not horizontal.

Moreover, her ability is not only large but her ability is high. If you really want to do arm-wrestling, you can be crushed or crushed.

It seems that Vandalu has educated himself with no problem, so it can be done without problems.

"Well, why not?"

"Skills. Don't you remember Pauvina yet?"

In arm wrestling, rabbits are also important, and skills are more important in combat than stats. Whether you have the skills or not, your fighting power will change a lot.

"I also learned [club]!"

"I'm not good because I'm still one level."

"Lapisage is one level too!"

"Wow?"

Rappie Sage, who moves his eyes and looks at Pauvina, has at last gained [Martial Arts] skill at one level.

I possessed the spirit of a person, and added a piece of the floating spirit body. But for some reason, she seems to have difficulty gaining martial arts skills at the same time as raising the level of skills such as [Physical Resistance] and [Health].

However, the fighting power should have risen because the skill has risen. Though still rank 4. in addition--

"You can change the parts of Lapiesage even if it gets hurt, but you can't change Pauvina."

Yes, Lapiesage is a splicing zombie created by Vandalu by joining together several corpses. If your neck is dropped due to a lack of limbs, it can be restored by cutting off the missing part from the appropriate corpse and sewing it instead.

"Uh ..."

"Ahhh ..."

When he told me, not only Pauvina but also Rapièsage was depressed. You may have been hurt, thinking that you were told you could be hurt.

In this way, while reflecting on his actions and thinking that he would hurt others unknowingly, Vandalu would like to take his mood with mayonnaise. But now it's Pauvina.

Pauvina is a subtle thing for Vandalu to call her a daughter, but at least she is a real sister. He was hesitant to take her to the deadly battlefield. Because I'm only two years old.

"Pauvina, I'll take you in wars and dungeons when I'm at 5th level or an adult, and I'll train with it until then."

While saying so, give the late birthday present.

It is an iron mace instead of the practice stone mace used by Pauvina until now.

"Wow! Can I use this?"

"Wow!"

The moment she sees it, she makes her face shine.

"Yeah, good, because it's a gift."

"Thank you! The stone mace was light and difficult to use!"

Gladly, Pauvina immediately started swinging with an iron mace. Looking at the situation, Vandaloo nodded with satisfaction.

He thought of Pauvina as a sister, but thought it was his job to help lightly kill ten or twenty of the average soldiers.

This world is harsh to the new tribe of Vandalus and Vida, and it is likely that if Pauvina's birth was known to Ardians, it would be Vida's. That's why Pauvina needs strength.

"Wow! Wow!"

"Wow, wow"

But why do you happily shake your fist up and down to Lapiesage? Vandaloo, leaning inward, suddenly noticed.

Lapiesage is imitating Pauvina and playing.

"Speaking of which, children want to imitate older siblings."

For the time being, it seems that there is no need to work hard on mayonnaise.

"How to pray to the goddess? What do you say, Son, are you not already doing enough?"

I asked Nuazah how to worship the goddess Vida, and she said that.

I was surprised to hear that Vida would receive one of the oracles if she was baptized or prayed in the right way.

To be honest, I never remember doing that. Before he dives into the dungeon, he does not visit the reconstructed Vida Temple, except to visit it.

"Um, please tell me in detail. Vida's commandments and doctrines."

"[Goddess of Life and Love] Vida's doctrine is simple. It enjoys life and loves others. There are many details, but it is not a rule."

Vida's basic teachings seem to be at the heart of life, such as not losing life or cherishing family, friends and lovers.

Derived from it, the parts of life are "let's eat without leaving food", "let's share rice for hungry people", "short words of appreciation even after eating before meals" etc. Is transmitted. This is where Nuaza said that Vandaluu practices.

In this world, Japanese is spoken. That's why Vandalu went to Japan with the custom of "I'll have you" and "Feast", and he basically eats anything. New seasonings and dishes are distributed to everyone.

"Oh, sure."

However, the doctrine is strangely Japanese. Perhaps that was the trend in the first place, but it may have been heard more than 100,000 years ago from Zachart.

Other "love" parts were not very Japanese. After all, the goddess seemed to have an aggressive nature.

"What about ceremonies?"

"Nothing. No, it's just a wedding or divorce report, a planting or harvest prayer, or an adult ritual."

It doesn't seem complicated either.

Whatever he says, he told the heroes, "It doesn't matter what the format is. It's important to remember the importance of life and love, right?"

(What a frank god. It's easy to do without being stubborn, but from the point of view of believers, it's less thankful ...?)

Isn't religion usually a matter of ritual or form? Well, maybe there was no problem a hundred thousand years ago when Vida was safely on the ground and spoke directly to believers.

By the way, other gods seemed to be almost the same. However, in the case of Sizalion, songs and arts are provided, in the case of Zanták, sword dances and warriors are hunted for their prey, and in the case of Rikrent, the research results of the year are described in front of the statue. It seems there was.

"Although the gods who support the gods of Arda and others seem to prefer rituals that go through complex and complicated procedures, as the Son thinks."

It seems that there are many rules, such as a ceremony for baptism of a baby born, long words of worship, and pilgrimage duties. It is close to the religion that Vandaloo imagined.

It is unknown whether it was due to the original nature of Arda or, like Vida, who had been unable to be on earth 100,000 years ago, the priests on earth had come up with a formal ritual to hold onto the believers It is.

"But then, why is Vida nothing to me?"

He gave the oracle to Nuaza nearly a hundred years ago, and at that time would have foreseen the existence of Vandaloo.

Then, I think it's okay to give me an oracle thing at least once. For example, "How to repair a resuscitation device that can be done in 5 minutes" or a place for another resuscitation device.

"My Son, the goddess is deeply hurt in the battle with Arda. I can't make oracles so often ... I'm taught."

Vida was heavily hurt in the battle 100,000 years ago, and the Zacht and vampire ancestors seemed to be in deep sleep. It seems that Vida's subordinate gods are incapacitated everywhere.

There are few followers, and Vida's new race seems to be declining in number due to Arda's influence. Nuaza has only heard stories from scholars who came to study from the election of Orbaum.

Also, the oracle recipient needs talent. Without talent, you may only receive part of the oracle or not remember anything.

For example, even if God gives an oracle that says "A man is connected to the evil god and is dangerous", if the receiving side is disappointed, he only remembers "A, dangerous", and is A a dangerous person? Or, he seems to be in a situation where he does not know if he is warning that A is in danger.

"Well, maybe there's nothing like teaching me in the oracle."

You may think that even if you tell the oracle how to repair the resuscitation device and the location of other resuscitation devices at such an oracle, it will not be transmitted.

"But if you are a child, you can someday give blessing to the goddess."

"That's reassuring though."

He looked up at the midwinter sun, which was completely cold, and muttered.

Spring is near.

Soldier, knight, adventurer. Adventurers are the ones who are the strongest in fighting one-on-one, ignoring individual averages, races and gender differences.

Soldiers are to protect the security of the country, fight in battle during wartime, and fight for death in a monstrous runaway to protect the town.

Evbezian guards who only lent armor to the boast of fighting in the town are out of the question. Soldiers who formally enter the military rather than temporarily recruit first change jobs to [apprentice apprentice] and then to [soldiers].

Job characteristics are almost backward compatible with [Apprentice Warrior] and [Warrior]. The winner is that the level is easy to rise and that the acquisition of skills such as [cooperation] and [enhancement of abilities: under command] is corrected. But these skills are meaningless alone.

[Soldier] is backward compatible with [Warrior] because soldiers do not fight as often as adventurers do. Security can't be killed by criminals every day, and if a monster runaway happens many times a year, it's over at that point.

Even in the war, even the skirmishes of the Amid Empire and the Orbaum election, which have been fighting since the foundation of the country, are only once every few years.

I receive training every day, but the number of actual battles is different from that of adventurers. That's why it is easy to go up in level instead of backward compatibility.

Jobs are more powerful than soldiers because knights require higher combat abilities than soldiers.

Start with [Knight Apprentice] and then [Associate Knight]. After receiving the order of the knight, he became a [regular knight]. However, not everyone can be a [regular knight]. There are talent issues, and no matter how good you are, you will not be hired unless trusted by your employer's noble.

Knights are also security personnel, and in some cases may be appointed lords of villages and other minorities. So more time is spent on deskwork than soldiers, and more people are injured in training than in combat.

A regular regular soldier is an E-class equivalent for adventurer guild adventurers and a similar quasi-knight, and a regular knight is said to be a D-class equivalent.

Thomas Palpapek smiled with the above information in his head. Anyone who sees this smile will have to feel good feelings. A soft and memorable smile.

(It is a good thing to repair the upper surface, though)

In my heart, I want to vomit now, or frown on my face as if I had bitten a group of worms.

Thomas, still dawning and cold at night, sees his army lit by the warm spring sunshine and admits that his delicate plots have been half-successful and half-great.

Milg, the capital of the Milg Shield. This is where the expeditionary forces depart.

Listening to a speech from King Milg Shield, General Commander General Maubitt of the Empire promised the outcome, and Deputy Commander Legston and his second son, Cesare, the current son of the Lord, were blessed by the High Priest of Arda. March and depart like a parade.

General Maubit's specialty, Cesare's refreshing smile, and Riley's face, especially of the Green Wind Spear, who was introduced to the king as the hero's return, are offensive above all.

(But there is nothing I can do now)

The dozen knights and soldiers are dozens of guards brought by General Maubit from the Amid Empire. There are about thirty Arda priest warriors, led by the high priest Gordan, a vampire hunter. And the elite that Milg shield country boasts is 6,000.

Among the soldiers, they are elite that have changed jobs from [soldiers] to [bowmen], [cavalry], [heavy soldiers], etc., adventurers can be defeated by class D, demons equivalent to rank 3 alone can be defeated, If you fight in troops, you will exert more combat ability.

All the knights have at least changed to the regular knights, and most have changed jobs to the guardian knight, the holy knight, and the senior knight. Adventurers have class C or higher, and rank 5 demons have the power to defeat themselves.

They were essentially reserve forces, the trump card of the Milg Shield. The final strength to protect the country from surprise attacks from the election of Orbaum, which cannot be handled by soldiers at the fort, and sudden outbreaks of monsters.

From there 6,000 are here. Join the expedition that is not in the interests of Milg Shield and bet on a battle that is not in the interests of Milg Shield.

Their death is a huge loss. Neither can it be exchanged for a dull past blemish, nor can it be hung on one of Dumpel's necks.

Thomas Palpapec's plot was half successful. Class A adventurer Riley will lead his own party, and the addition of vampire hunter Gordan High Priest will reduce the number of soldiers to about two-thirds of the plan.

However, the king, who was determined by the participation of heroes, raked up 6,000 of the most elite, saying, "If you are not elite from Japan, you will be involved in the voucher as a war country."

"No, that's how it looks, Count Palpapec"

"Never, Viscount Bartches"

(Oh, absolutely, Viscount Barches)

Thomas keeps calm while vomiting the same words with different meanings in his mouth and inward.

Viscount Balches has no fault. It is just stupid not to reach for the opportunity to enrich your territory, and he is not bright in conspiracy or military. Except for his economic skills, he is an average nobleman. In the first place, he is not directly involved in this expedition. At best, transportation of goods.

"But it's good to go on an expedition, but I want the soldiers to return home as many as possible."

Above all, it's helpful to not be stupid. Mentally.

"Yes, they are the people we need in Japan."

After all, it is the most sophisticated. If you are a terminal soldier, you can train a recruit for about a year and you will be replaced. However, it is difficult to tell how many years it takes to train from recruits at the highest level, and many people do not reach that level even if they train in the first place.

Knights are even more so.

(Three thousand reserves are still elite. There are no signs of a monster runaway, and the election of Orbaum has not yet regained enough strength to be offensive. Do not know if is happening)

It will be managed during the expedition. That was Thomas's expectation.

(After that, do you just pray that the dumping of the example will be defeated as soon as possible, and that as many soldiers will return as possible before the vampires break the tunnel?)

"But if possible, it would be encouraging if Schneider from [Jinrai] also participated."

"Oh, that S-class adventurer?"

Thomas knew of a real, non-farmed hero like Riley, who had visited the Milg Shield several times. A superhuman who hunts dragons above rank 10 as a matter of course, treats noble vampires as small fish, defeats one pillar of evil gods, and destroys many monsters such as Lamia and Scylla ... .

He is a five-finger strongman and hero in the Amid Empire. It seems that the oracle, saying that danger is imminent, has dropped from Arda not once or twice to protect him.

"If he doesn't even have that bad habit ..."

But at the same time she seems to be an incomparable woman.

"I'm sorry, but he says he likes hero colors."

(In such a case, a man who passes through a woman's play does not matter whether he is loved by God, die!)

Thomas defended in the mouth, but swears inwardly.

[Parallel thinking] was a skill that allowed you to think about different things at the same time. Probably the same effect as splitting the head.

The impression that I used it became possible to think about different things as if the brain increased to two. Thinking A can solve a math problem in the brain, while thinking B can play a boxing match in charge of the body.

The number of thoughts that can be increased is not limited by skill level, and can be increased to three or four, but the more you increase, the more likely it is that the more you try to do complicated things, the more likely you will collapse. As your skill level goes up, you will be able to think and act more and more complex at once.

By the way, when I increased the number of heads by [withdrawal of the astral body], the effect of the [parallel thinking] skill was able to be achieved for the increased head.

"It's a high performance as usual. Wouldn't it be possible to activate more than one magic at a time when combined with the [Casting] skill?"

"Yes. If you use the [Simultaneous activation] skill, you can use up to six with one head now."

Originally, even if the number of thoughts increases with [parallel thinking], there is only one mouth, so you can only use one technique at a time. However, if you have the Discard Spell skill, you don't need to cast spells, so you can use multiple magic at once.

If you use [Simultaneous], it's even more.

If you add [breakthrough] here, you can increase it further.

"Isn't that less magical?"

"Especially. I'm tired."

Maybe they consume glucose very much? For Vandalu, who has enormous magic, it is not so happy that nutritional supplementation is the price of skill use, but it is not a problem if you use it only for the soul after [withdrawal].

And what Vandaloo is doing now is pointing to shogi against Zadiris and Talia.

"It's a game that looks simple and profound."

"I think you can enjoy it if you get used to it."

After the reversi was largely circulated, Vandaloo made stone shogi boards and shogi pieces out of stone for the next amusement.

I thought about chess, but Japanese was well-known in this world, so shogi was suitable. In addition, the existing board games were all overwhelmingly complex and difficult than shogi, so it seemed that they would soon become familiar.

Above all, Vandaloo himself was not very familiar with chess. I remember the shape and movement of the pieces, and some simple rules.

The rules may be different from the chess of the earth because it was done in the intelligence test performed at the origin. ...... There was a magician in the piece.

A snapper and a vandaloo that grasps the two boards and points to another piece with their right and left hands. Although he spends his spare time after the dungeon capture, it is also training for [parallel thinking].

"Speaking of which, how was the poison you made?"

Snap.

"Successfully. With the help of everyone, only the dinosaurs and goblins we got were sick."

Slingshot.

"Then it's perfect to make some [sterilization] magic items afterwards."

Crackling

Then he advanced the piece and saw an immovable result. Vandalu said he exhaled small.

"I'm here. The rule is to tell so later when you're a king."

"Your boy ... can you regret a little more?"

"Zadiris has no pride in the ten-time defeat me."

Like Reversi, Vandalu has never played shogi with anyone on earth. Experience is a game or playing alone.

As a result, as well as Reversi, he was unable to beat Zadiris, who progressed as well as Mekimeki, and Talea was able to win up to three times but continued to lose afterwards.

"Fufufu, then please."

"Well, it's a game."

By the way, the rule is to massage the loser who wins. In addition, I did not know Vandaloo, but in Lambda this technique called massage was not common. Of course, there is no concept of an acupoint.

It is known by the wealthy and those who can use the high-class prostitutes as Ama, but it seems that there is no concept of acupoints, manipulative treatment, needles or moxibustion.

So it seems that the massage golem that Vandaloo installed in the public bath was a sober invention.

"I'll start now."

Arms are branched into tentacles after being [spirited] and reduced into the bodies of Zadiris and Taleah. Then, the stiffness is released from inside the body, and from the outside, it is rubbed using [materialization] skill.

This [Incarnate] skill acquired after a job change to [Soul Annihilator] was a skill that could make the part that has been [Incarnate] incarnate, nothing.

Speaking of a skill that would only materialize a ghostly thing, it seems like a meaningless skill, but Vandaloo intuitively realized that this skill was super useful. ... It's not because I thought I could play tentacles separately.

"Van, you're so upset."

"Oh, sorry."

Attempting to do more than three things at a time with [parallel thinking] alone can sometimes be distracted and affect.

"I'm so enthusiastic about the boys and Basdias, but we're sorry ... it's a shock."

"Ugh, I still prefer younger girls."

"No, they are both young."

The actual age of both of them is 300 when rounded, but they have already been [juvenile] and their bodies have rejuvenated almost as much as their apparent age. A close look at the two lamenting lamenters reveals that the mouth is grinning.

Apparently they are making fun of it.

"... Speaking of which, Zadiris has been around for three years since [juvenile] and Talea has been around for one year."

Vandalu that increases the number of arms steadily.

"Hey, what are you going to do with your arms so much?"

"Let's make them a young girl"

"Ke, ok, it's fine! I'm getting tired and the massage is over!"

[Justification] starts without letting Zadiris and Taleah who turn pale in face and escape.

"No, don't be shy."

"Stop-Oh!"

"Hi ah! There are more than before, huh!"

For the time being, I was worried that I continued to lose in shogi, so Zadiris and Taleah did not become very popular, and they had to be rejuvenated until they became slick and smooth like a baby.
