The Death Mage Who Doesn’t Want a Fourth Time

Episode 125: The heavenly eye looking into this. And the scythe is swung up.

I do not want to put it out.

She showed strong resistance to instinctual impulses, powered by reason.

Getting out is a very natural thing, not a shame. Rather, it is one of the indispensable processes for growing, and welcoming it should be rather delightful.

Indeed, he was pleased to celebrate his friends and juniors, Pete and Payne, and those who took care of her, as well as telling her that she was about to leave.

But the timing is too bad. Once you put it out, you will be stuck for at least a few months. It is hard to say that you can move even in the current state, but you can not move completely.

So, at least he didn't want to go to this stage until he settled on the problem of a "reincarnate" or with the Noble Oak Empire.

"Piggy"

Quinn mourned in the nest of Cemetery Bee, in a room dedicated to her, which was several times larger than a normal larva.

"Sorry, the Noble Oak case is a rabbit, and the reincarnation case is long and dozens of times until it leaves a piece ... No, depending on the reincarnations, it will take several decades, so it will surely be in time."

Vanderlu says, licking and stimulating Quinn with her flared tongue and encouraging growth.

Yes, Quinn is finally turning into a pupa.

Bees are creatures that do not make cocoons but spit out filamentous fibers, cover the room, and form pupae inside. This is the same as the bee monster Cemetery Bee.

And it seems that Quinn, whose queen Bee of Cemetery Bee was pseudo-incarnate into an egg that had been exposed to the magic of death, was also the same.

"Pippi, pipipipipigi"

"Are you worried about how long you are in the pupa? It will take longer than a normal bee."

In the case of ordinary Cemetery Bee, it takes about one month for the pupa to emerge. Even pupae with larvae of queen bees seem to emerge in about six months.

However, the quintessentially reincarnated Quinn is already a different kind of monster than Cemetery Bee. The ecology is similar, but not all the same.

Perhaps it is possible to say that the pupa remains for more than a year.

"That's why I can't just equip pupae with [insect art]."

"Piggy ..."

The inside of the pupa is liquid except for the nerve cells. Therefore, the pupa dies when exposed to excessive vibration.

Vibration received from the outside is cut off while equipped in the body of Vandaloo by [insect art], but there is a possibility that it will go out of the body at some beat.

Knowing that, Quinn reluctantly withdraws.

And he started spitting thread as he had decided.

"Piggy ..."

Quinn's beautiful compound eye showed him until she was interrupted by a thread-made lid she couldn't see.

"When you come, you come every day."

Vandalou stared at Quinn's compound eye and said he was relieved. After completely covered with the lid, look sideways.

Vuvuvuvuvuv.

There, the Cemetery Bees were chewing a caterpillar resembling a giant green caterpillar with their jaws, and rolling the minced meat into a dumpling. Apparently, they are making a replacement for the tea confectionery served in Vandaluo.

"I don't want to use fire here ..."

Rather than putting out the Duchess of New Sauron Meat Ducks, are they also considering the Cemetery Bee? Maybe it's just gone because Quinn has already eaten it.

The next night, ahead of the Sauron territory, Vandaloo had his workshop gather at Zadiris, Taleah, Datara, Luciliano, and the temple head of the Vida Temple, Nuaza of Rich.

"So we begin to examine the factors that changed the legion from meat chunks, as well as raw gold and disappearing silver."

The agenda is this.

The Legion himself did not exactly remember why they fleshed out their body, which was also a living entity, from another world.

But figuring out why he was reincarnated as a living flesh, a failure of Darussian's body, could lead to her resurrection, Vandalu's longing.

"Well, I don't expect that much success."

"Certainly ... if it were possible, there could be more legions."

"More importantly, where is the new" Region "newcomer? I wanted to hear the story of eating mysterious silver. ''

There was no legion in the large underground workshop. Right now, there is only an empty pool that she (?) Was in when she was a chunk of meat.

"Legion looks tired of his first leveling, and he's also sleeping with Pauvina and Privel on leveling back."

Luciliano looks away and answers.

"First time? In a different world, I heard that it was a fierce battle that rampantly rampaged up and sent hundreds of elite soldiers to the blood festival and killed many brave people in different worlds ...

Zadiris responds to Datara's inexplicably scratching his head.

"Everything seems to have no levels, jobs, ranks, skills, or experience in the world of origin. So even if you kill enemies, you won't gain experience, and of course you won't get higher. That's right "

"What is it! ? It's surprising that there are other such wonderful places besides "Earth"

In Lambda, by the time you know, everyone knows the concepts of levels, jobs, skills, and experience. Even preschoolers who can't read letters, even stupid goblins and orcs.

The status that can be seen by the non-attribute magic [Status] that can be cast by all beings is displayed as it is to those who can read kanji and numbers like Vandalu. Those who can read only Hiragana and Katakana are automatically displayed only in Hiragana and Katakana instead of Kanji.

Those who cannot read the text are explained by voice, and those who do not know the words or have very little vocabulary seem to be able to understand for some reason with a very fuzzy feeling of "understood somehow".

It is only understandable that intelligence can be made stronger by eating other people when intelligence goes to the same level as animals and demons below it.

Conversely, even the monsters of beasts and insects instinctively understand the concepts of rank, level and experience.

By that time it's a general concept in Lambda.

When it comes to a world without it, it seems difficult for Datara to imagine.

"Well, I don't know which is more, the world with levels and experience, the world without at least the earth and the origin.

That's why Legion is tired of experiencing announcements for the first time and telling him that he has gained experience and skills to gain experience. ''

"I'm sick of experience. I've been ashamed of that when I was alive. "

"Oh, anyone who gets a job in combat will experience it once."

Experience gains a certain kind of pleasure when acquired. I remember that in the sense of Vandaloo, it was close to fulfillment and sense of accomplishment.

And that pleasure changes to a feeling of elation if you get too much experience. Runners' high and strangely high tensions at dawn all the time.

So Nuaz and Zadiris struggled when they were young.

"In the first battle, I became sick of experience and became tired, and fluttered with a weak monster opponent ... but when I got sick of experience, the fatigue I flew back came back, I have. I was ashamed of a priest warrior of the same age. '

"I'm a similar thing, because when you're first in combat, you'll get a lot of experience when you beat anything."

"I also remember it, although it wasn't enough to get around."

"Oh? You are not in a fighting job, but do you have experience sickness?"

Talea opens her mouth after Zadiris nods to the memory of Nuaza. Luciliano recalls that she should only be working in a production job. But the question was answered immediately.

"What Van took you to leveling. I experienced it then."

Treasure has risen to rank 5 Ghoul High Artisan in leveling for non-combatants in Talosheim wearing Rita, Salia, and the Living Armor of the former Red Wolf Knights. At that time, he seemed to have experienced experience sickness.

"Oh, at that time, all the people of Tarosheim are experiencing experience sickness."

"No, I have no experience"

Jobs that are used for production, such as various craftsmen and farmers, have a gradual pace of gaining experience. A production job earns experience by performing work related to the job. Because of this, you can't do advanced tasks that can earn a lot of experience when your level and skills are low.

Therefore, they do not experience experience sickness. Talosheim's people are a rare exception due to the advanced leveling that Vandaloo normally does.

However, the giant undead of craftsmen like Datara were not leveled because they were already much stronger than average soldiers with a hammer.

"Well, I don't want to experience it. Isn't the subject more than that? I'm just diverting the topic '

Digging for Vandalu, "Well then, do you want to settle for the Noble Oak empire?"

He wants to work in a ghoul profession and workshop, which consists of women only, rather than raising his level and rank.

"Ah, yes. First of all, the reason why the meat chunk became a legion is probably God's work."

"The master, it's too rough. Well, it's probably the result of multiple gods moving."

Legion's status indicated the blessing of the three pillars of God.

Like Vida and Arda, the eleven gods of the beginning of Lambda. It is Zurwan, the god of space and creativity, Rikurent, the genie of time and art, and blessing of the god of origin.

It was generally accepted that Zuluwan and Rekrent were asleep to regain power since the battle with the Demon King Gudranis's Demon King Army, but they seem to have been active unexpectedly.

According to legend, Zuluwan manipulated the space and opened the gate connecting the world when summoning Zachart and Bellwood heroes from the different world "Earth". If he moved, it would be possible to bring the soul of [Eighth Guidance] and [Gaiser], the forerunner of Legion that existed in the different world "Origin", to this lambda.

Recrent is also a god who controls the art along with the time attribute, and all magician guilds are enshrined with statues and reliefs. He must have used some technique to support Zuluwan.

But the "god of origin" is a mystery.

"What is the master, the god of the origin? I have never heard of the master so far."

"On the contrary, she previously told me that God might not exist in the Earth and the Origin."

Asked by Luciliano and Nuaza, both faces of curiosity and perplexity, Vandaloo leans on his head.

"I don't even know. I knew, as I told Nuaza, that there was no real, at least no god with personality and unique will, like the gods in this world."

When he was on Earth, he was not very religious. But neither was an atheist.

I just thought vaguely that there was a divine being somewhere beyond human wisdom or perception that was supernatural or transcendental.

He then died on Earth, and knew the existence of Rhodocorte and knew that "God exists." But, on the contrary, it became doubtful that the earth and the origin had their own gods.

He thought that if a god with personality, like Rodcorte, existed on the earth or the origin, more miracles and tragedies would have occurred.

In particular, the origin has not only science but also magic. Before the awakening of death witchcraft, the existence of the soul was known to exist, though impossible to use.

However, even at the origin, only the existence of God did not seem to be able to find a real basis.

Aside from the presence or absence of religious existence, magically, it is possible to explain various phenomena if it is said that it exists magically, so it is said that it seems to exist, it is described in a technical book small It was just.

"I wonder if there is any chance. Rodcorte should have been in charge of reincarnation of the soul. However, it is clear that this time it exists."

It is a great discovery worldwide. There is no way to inform the people of the origin.

"It's like you're really interested in the boy."

"Thank you."

Legion has not received any messages from Zuluwan and Reklent, and has no memory of help in the first place. Immediately after each death, the next time I woke up, it was in that state.

But it's hard to imagine why Zuluwan and Rikurent relegated Legion to Bandarou.

I don't know exactly why he'll be on his side, but ... Why were the two pillars more friendly to Vida than was told in the myth, and they were willing to support Vida and not Alda? Is it a display?

And it is even more mysterious why the god of Origin cooperated with the gods of Lambda, giving blessings to Legions.

It is a god who has no knowledge of Vandaloo what it is. If he likes Vandaloo for some miracle, he feels it's fine to have something while he's alive at the Origin or after he's undead.

With that guess, Vandaloo shook his head.

"Well, God has God's convenience, and there is not enough material to verify with the Origin God, so let's put it aside."

"Surely, I don't know what deity he is. If the effect of blessing on the legion is known, it may provide some clues."

With that said, I decided to leave the origin god for a while. It is a mystery why that god helped me. Perhaps Zuluwan has negotiated or done something, or just hated Rodcorte.

Rhodocorte is a god who does not appear in the myths and legends of each world, but controls the reincarnation. For this reason, the relationship with the gods in each world is not known.

At least, as far as I heard from Fidirg and Melebebeil, the Lambda gods ... though not very welcome on the Vida side.

"I can't say in detail, but it's dung"

"It's scrap"

`` Gero less ssu ''

"I can't tell you in detail, but I want to strangle if my tentacles are within reach. Such a god. "

These are the answers of Vandalu's question to Lodcorte to Fidirug and Melebebeil, respectively. Apparently, he did something in the past.

Fidirug and Melebebeil were unable to tell Vandaloo the details of past events from the standpoint of God as to the soul and reincarnation, but their impression was well understood.

"For the time being, there are statues of Zuluwan and Rikurent in Vida Temple, right?"

"Of course, child!"

At the temple of Vida, currently served by Nuaza, other deities are also enshrined. The statues of the god of law, Alda and his subordinates, who injured Vida, and their subordinates, allegedly arrived on Alda's side, have been removed, but the statues of the other gods are still enshrined .

Of course, the statues of Zuluwan and Rikurent were also celebrated.

"Now, when you go to the temple, worship. In Lambda, prayers seem to arrive."

I don't think God really knows everything. Someday, an oracle-like thing may be sent.

"Then, next is the chunk of meat that became the legion, raw gold, and disappearing silver.

For now, I know at the moment-

Announce that Luciliano knows about each.

"First of all, regarding meat chunks, it is probably one of the three major secrets that alchemists are trying to create.

"……What is that?"

"... It's sad that the creator doesn't understand, Master."

I rebuilt the goddess' resuscitation device and modified it to make it work. Lucialiano looks at the disappointment at Vandaluu, who feels like that.

"The three great mysteries are the finest alchemy techniques that would be impossible without reaching God. It seems that the gods used them to create new life. Another name is" life without soul. "

"Is Van more than the homunculus he is trying to create in the body of Darussian mother-in-law?"

Luciliano nodded at Talea's words, calling herself a mother-in-law.

"Homunculus is an" artificial life. "Originally, it was positioned before the creation of the" form of life. "

Homunculus is the same as "soulless life", but the versatility after creation is different. Homunculus is at best an android, but the "form of life" can in principle be transformed into any and all living things.

From the rat to the true dragon and the giant, it seems like he wants. ''

"What a dragon! The only thing that can defeat Volks is the dragon stop, at best ... Miko, you made Eraimon. What are you sleeping at?

"No, I'm just shocked and fell like Kuchiki."

For Vandaloo, who was also considering making homunculus for the revival of Darussia, it seemed shocking that he had created a higher level of homunculus. Zadiris embraced where he was falling.

Why is mystery made and homunculus just before mystery cannot be made? It's absurd for Vandalu.

Vandalu asked Luciliano in a position hugged by Zadiris.

"Is it possible to revive by adding a mother's spirit to a new meat chunk?"

Luciliano turned his eyes on Zadiris, not on Vandalu.

"Zadiris, please hold the teacher firmly.

Master, in principle it is possible. It is possible, but not possible with the current teacher. That meat chunk ... Even after "Original Form of Life" was completed, he never accepted the souls around him. Did the teacher try to put the spirit several times?

But to say that it was not possible would probably not be possible, either to create or to exploit, without the knowledge of God or supreme alchemy. ''

By the way, it was impossible for Vandalu to ask for help from Fidirg and Merebeil, who are already "gods to go to see." It would be possible if it could be a lizardman and a collection of tentacles, respectively.

"Van, do your best ..."

"... No, Treasure. Stop embracing the boy with me."

For example, he seems to have made a fusion reactor for some reason to build a steam engine.

It's a great result, but you can't use it if you make it too much technology.

"Well, there will be no danger because unless a high-ranking god moves like this time, it will not become a living thing without permission."

At present, it doesn't seem to be a poison or a medicine.

"... Let's take a look at raw gold and disappearing silver."

"I don't think you'll be able to regain much of your attention when you're withdrawing from the body ... but as a blacksmith, I can say that both are metal and not metal Only

Datara reports on the spirit of Vandalu who came out of her body.

"It's easy for raw money if you just change the shape. Because it is as soft as clay. However, it keeps soft, whether it's hot or cold, and it moves around and constantly changes its shape. You're the one who runs away with a hammer. "

Unlike liquid metal dead iron and brass, which Vandalu had previously made from iron and copper, which became harder when heated, Datara had a hard time processing raw gold.

Raw metal, such as slime mold, which is completely unaffected by temperature, has no meaning when fitted into a mold and cannot be forged even with a hammer.

Tarea was also struggling to process raw gold.

"I tried to mix it with other demon materials to make paint or adhesive, but it didn't work at all. It doesn't stop trying to stop moving around.

But I found something interesting when Datara ate raw money. ''

"I don't know how to call this a processing method."

Datara, pointed to by Tarea, opens her mouth wide with a subtle look and exposes her teeth. There were some gold teeth mixed with thick white teeth.

"Maybe that gold tooth is raw gold?"

"Oh, I'm fine. Yeah, when I put it in my mouth, it was my own teeth. After that, it will not move on its own, it will remain solid

When Vandalou regained his energy, he saw Datara's gold teeth stuck in the shape of teeth, as they had said.

"I've been in good shape since I made this tooth. I feel like I'm growing younger and more viable. ''

"From this, raw gold cannot be used for the same purpose as ordinary metal, and it seems that using it directly for the undead is something other than eating it."

Living metal, "raw gold" seems to be a metal that can make up for the missing parts of non-living beings such as undead. In addition, it seems to increase vitality and improve the health of the undead.

"If it can be used for the undead, it could be used for living armor and curse weapons. Why not try it for Rita and Saria? It will be an accessory and two birds with one stone."

"Sure. Let's try it now. Luciliano, is this raw money a secret of alchemy or something?"

Luciliano, still questioned by Vandaloo in Zadiris's arm, shook his head, "Okay, I don't know."

"Because it is a living body that does not have a soul, it may be close to 'the original form of life', but I am not specialized in alchemy. Even if I ask an expert, the teacher is I don't think I know about the mysterious substances that I create.

Of course, the silver that disappears is one of the mysteries `` the original form of the spirit. ''

The disappearing silver that only the Legion noticed and could absorb. From the results, Luciliano had speculated that it was the "spiritual form".

In the days of the Jindai, the gods created their own spirits and angels using the "primitive form of the spirit", and when producing races, elves, and dwarves, the body was "the original form of life" and the spirit was "the original form of spirit." Has been created in the myth.

"But the most mysterious of the three mysteries of alchemy is the" spiritual form. "Most sorcerers think that they are conceptual entities that do not exist. Has no specific description.

So I can't make an accurate guess, but the Legions are souls that Zuluwan and Rikurent brought from a different world origin to a combination of the body of life, the original form of life, and the disappearing silver, the original form of the spirit. It is a life form born as a result of embedding ``

It seems to say. It seems that Luciliano was too over-technical and could only make such a guess.

"I don't know what God does. It would have been nice to reincarnate as a race or something with each one separated."

"Okay, without saying that. For some reason, there may have been a reason why it could not be done. Or maybe there's something that can only be done with that odd shape. ''

If Zuluwan or Reclent had been listening, he would have used the words of Tarea and returned with a thumbs-up to follow Nuaza.

"In that case, I don't know how to use silver. For now, let's use it undead just like raw gold. If you don't have a legion, you'll lose track of it, so you'll have to try it later."

"So, child, what's the name?

"Now, let's name it" Rei Gin. "

The silver that disappears and the mysterious silver are changed, “Reigin”. It seems to be one of the three major mysteries of alchemy, but if you change from silver you will lose vandaloo and undead.

"By the way, what is the rest of the mystery of alchemy?"

"It's the creation of Orichalcum, the metal of God. In Tarosheim, thanks to the teachers, I'm a little grateful."

"Because there is one dragon-shaped Orichalcum Golem. I use it for my staff."

"In addition, Miko is a fragment of the Demon King, and she can produce any material that can be easily processed into a habit comparable to Orichalcum. Thank you is thin and it should be natural "

"If you think again, we are really blessed."

Verification ends in the sense that we can't go into more detail, and the topic begins to chat.

If you continue chatting for a while as it is, it will be dissolved as "Tomorrow".

At that time, Vandaloo suddenly felt his eyes from above and looked up at the ceiling.

The ceiling of this underground workshop is particularly high for a building. However, Vandaloo seemed to have an unnaturally distorted "hole" below the ceiling.

"That is……"

The hole reveals a gigantic, glowing human figure that is familiar and a dozen or so unidentified figures lined up in front of it.

The characteristics match those of the dead members of "Bravers" heard from Legions. ... Someone who shouldn't be dead is mixed for some reason.

That's an emergency situation.

"Boy, is anyone's spirit there?"

I do not know what the Rhodocorte and the reincarnates are going to do or what they can do, but there is no response to [Danger Sensing: Death], but should everyone be lowered for the time being?

"Everyone goes down-"

Recognizing the pain of being grabbed by the heart and the sudden reaction of "danger perception: death," Vandaloo understood what they were going to do.

It is not a declaration of war, a call for discussion, or reconnaissance.

Attack.

Material explanation: raw money

Living metal that has been transformed from gold by the magic of death. One of the three major secrets of alchemy, the existence close to "the original form of life."

Raw gold alone is only like a slime mold of the same weight as gold, and although it is alive, it has no fighting ability or proliferation. If you are not exposed to the high temperature at which gold evaporates, or if you are not exposed to absolute zero, you will continue your activity, but you can't do anything just because you are active.

Also, there is neither will nor ego. It is impossible for the spirit to dwell.

First of all, use is to eat. You can get a little experience value by eating. Also, it slightly increases the in-life power of the ability value.

It also has the ability to supplement vitality and has no effect on healthy children and young people, but it can improve unhealthy creatures and imperfect undead.

Missing or missing teeth, severely damaged organs, bones, etc. can be supplemented by ingesting a sufficient amount. There is also an effect as an energetic agent.

If a monster ingests this metal, it may evolve specially when it ranks up.

In the case of monsters with no mouth (Curs Weapon, Living Armor), simply touching the body may have an effect.
