The Death Mage Who Doesn’t Want a Fourth Time

In the southern continent, demons who follow the evil gods who have turned to the Vida school from each Vida race or Demon King have created a country where each god is served except the vampires who protect the Vida's Sleeping Place.

Only the kingdom of Zanarpadna is run by two tribes, Arachne and Empusa, so they are named after the name of God, while all other countries are kingdoms named after the tribe.

Only the Noble Oak Empire claims its empire. Rumors and legends outside the Boundary Mountains mean that rabbits are, in fact, true.

Why is Noble Oak the only empire because it was the leading nation of nations within the border mountains.

"In other words, returning to a kingdom rather than an empire would give up its leadership position."

While explaining the circumstances, Vandaloo was proceeding in the B-class dungeon “Okami Cave” located at the back of Mbubjengye Temple.

"Um. I couldn't stop Bhuguitas' rebellion, but he made great sacrifices, especially to Haikobold and Hygoblin, and Japan's national power was greatly reduced.

In this state, it is impossible for Japan to fulfill the role expected of the Empire. ''

Emperor Budarion, the king of the old emperor, who advances with a light and easy step.

He himself climbed the ranks of Noble Oak Abyss hikes, the same rank as the former wise emperor Boogie, in the fight against Lavoviphard, gaining one of the strongest skills inside the border mountains, except for the vampires He did, but he and his associates seemed to believe that the politicians could not manage the interstate issues by themselves.

"I'm sorry for the countries that stopped me."

After Budalion announced at the feast the name change to the kingdom of the empire, the delegates at the feast tried to persuade him to discourage him. Seriously and desperately.

Human nations outside the Boundary Mountains will see this as an opportunity for their own breakthrough. You should consider your country taking over a position that has been immobile for more than 50,000 years and gaining an advantage over other countries.

Even if the government does not think, some nobles will try to move the nation by forming factions to expand the interests and territories enjoyed by them and their descendants.

Others may move if they believe that if a country with poor ties with their country gains its leading position, their position will be poor.

However, the situation is different in the countries inside this border mountain range.

The governors of each nation also serve as priests of the gods they serve, so if they do too little, they will be scolded directly by God. It is important for the gods who serve in each nation that their followers prosper, but more than that, maintaining a barrier that protects this land from the gods of the Ardas has caused other nations to decline significantly. Because the god of the country is avoiding weakening.

In addition, in a situation where a city state exists in a dangerous magical territory, it is known that gains can be gained by taking advantage of other countries.

Above all, the values of the races that make up the great powers after the Noble Oaks, which are likely to begin a fight for power, are different from the royal nobles of human society.

"Queen Donanellis will be holding his head. It's about to come to ourselves."

Since the B-class dungeon is still difficult, Gizania, proceeding while being protected by Vandaloo, said so, and Muses who proceeded in the same way agreed.

"That's not true. Certain Zanarpadna is prosperous enough in the current situation.

In Zanarpadna, where Princess Counelia has decided to marry Budallion, his sister Gizania, and the relative of the former queen, Muse, to Vandaloo, there is a promise to do without an empire.

Conversely, some would be more annoyed by the duties associated with a position.

"By the way, can I brush?"

Vandalu, sitting on the back of a large arachne, Gizania, asked her hand while touching her lower body hair, which is harder than it looks.

"... I don't mind, but I want to do it later."

"Vandaloo, who is it?"

"Muse would have no hair ... could he help with wings and sickles?"

"Oh, by all means!"

Gizania with his eyes down and his cheeks dyed, and a muse that makes him happy. Godwin, the king of the Demon Kingdom, listens to the conversation in the background and sighs.

"Don't follow me, in this emergency ..."

This man with a giant-like body with two twisted horns, blue skin, a tail-grown muscle with an inverted triangular tip, and a boast of a giant-like gigantic man, is a well-known man of all nations.

However, his current look looks slender.

"I thought I could finally throw the king's throne as a successor next year and return to the sweet days of fighting and drinking ... I don't want to be an emperor."

"... Godwin, what do you think of it, even though you've heard too much?"

"Budalion, return to the emperor if you want me to look back on your actions."

Although Godwin looks only like a selfish goddess, it is still a common sense among demons.

The demons are individual and powerful and have no endless races like vampires. Because of that, most people go my way at their own pace .... Most people prefer their hobbies and preferences. He is often enjoyed, drunk, and hedonistic.

The common thing is to emphasize individual strength. The choice of king is also determined by the competition of the tournament or battle royale of the applicant. The same applies to dragons and demons, but in the case of evil kingdoms, the definition of strength is so wide that sometimes kings are decided not only for battle but also for board games, drinking comparisons, and wisdom comparisons.

Nevertheless, there is a strong sense of companionship and kinship, and the ties between those with the same hobbies and preferences are particularly strong.

In such a tribal country, the King is almost an honorary position, acting as the coordinator of everyone, like the Earth Class Chair.

"If you leave the gerazog stupid more than that, it will come out if the name of the demons is gone. If that stupid ... brewed with Budarion and the nails of the predecessor, a little bit better I said I sent it out to study abroad. ''

"... What did the Gerazog do?"

Godwin was asked by Vandalu, and his answer was muddy with his wrinkled face.

"Some kind of thing you don't want to tell a child like you. It's a thug that's just a crime, so until now you couldn't stay in prison for a long time.

I was taken care of by his great-grandmother, so I tried to rehabilitate him, but ... I was suffering from strange things. "

Godwin talks in a bitter tone, and Gizania and Musée appeal to Vandalou, saying, "Don't ask me any more."

Apparently, the poor performance of Gerazog could be heard up to Znarpadna, which should have been far away.

Bugitas was still a very problematic child, with two other gargaes and giddos, which Lavovifard had made his priest. As well as ability, but especially personality.

Apparently, Lavovifard chose not to choose who would give blessing, but to look at the kind of personality that would easily remove the reason and release his desire, rather than the talent or ability.

"And it's absolutely impossible to emperor. I can arbitrate between disputes between nations and host joint conferences between nations. If I could do anything about reinforcements at the time, I couldn't send more than one at a time. The demons like us are not as many as the demons. ''

The demons have no life. Perhaps because of this, the birth rate is extremely low. Although it is about the same as a reproductive elf or a dark elf, the demons are less aware of leaving offspring.

As with vampires and ghouls, there are rituals that change races to the same ancestry, but it seems that it is not something that can be actively performed because it is troublesome.

As a result, the Demon tribes, although powerful as individuals, were the fewest tribes within the Boundary Mountains.

Demon tribes outside the border mountains live in groups of at most a dozen or so, so even a thousand are large enough.

"Godwin, I'd probably give words from the gods too."

"Mm ... I thought it was a young man with some highlights, but as soon as one arm and one eye turned black, I calmed down.

It would be good if the gods didn't say something strange. ''

Why are Budallion and Godwin going in this Great Cave just after the feast? Because they received the oracle from their respective gods.

"Come to the nearest sanctuary." And the sanctuary closest to the Budallions is the room at the back of the Great Meat Cave, which is located at the innermost part of the Temple of Muvbudgenge.

Noble Oak Empire ... The kingdom has been able to capture this dungeon solo for generations, and those who have been recognized by Mbubjengé have reigned in a treasure trove by giving an audience with God and giving words.

This is a common mechanism in countries within the Boundary Mountains ... but usually does not require that the gods of other countries call their priests in sanctuaries of other countries.

This is probably the first time since the founding of the country, as it is not remembered by Godwin who has lived for thousands of years.

"Even though there is no Queen Donanellis, why are you so certain?"

"I have Princess Cunelia, but leave it aside ... Do you have any ideas for Zanarpadna?"

Muse and Gizania were puzzled, as it might be the first time. Even non-kings could challenge dungeons, capture them and step into the sanctuary. However, since there is almost no appearance of the god coming down, the feeling of "Why am I? Can I really go as it is?"

"If they were all misunderstood ... just supposed to have received the oracle ... aren't they going to do something really out of place?"

"Gizania, please don't say anything terrible! I don't think it's so, like two people make the same mistake at the same time.

"But I could only say" come "to the oracle ...

"Some ..." Sanctuary "

Gizania and Muse seem to have little ability to receive the oracle.

"Well, that's the first time I received an oracle. If I thought I was a daydream and ignored it, I was beaten and taken to the sanctuary by my predecessor who received the oracle from my God Zelkus. I was beaten directly by Zelks. ''

Godwin laughs with a laugh, but he seems to have been unable to reassure them.

"Godwin, I think that if you receive that punishment, you must die."

"I can't help but die."

"No, what I want to say is that if I misunderstand, I'm not too angry ..."

"Zelx is a subordinate god of Zanták, the war god of fire and destruction, and has been heard to be a rather rough deity. Zanarpadna would not be beaten."

Godwin which becomes muddy. The unseen Budallion said that they were both relieved.

"If you misunderstand, let me apologize with you. I will forgive you."

And, from the Merebeil, "I'm sorry, there are various stories I want to hear, so please come a little."

"I'll protest you when it comes down."

Violence is not good. You should counter such violence with violence.

"Thank you ... but be gentle"

"Don't be afraid. If you misunderstand, don't be afraid at that time.

"Um, I'll ask you too."

The party progressed, calming Vandaloo, who seemed to be slightly stimulating trauma.

The B-class dungeon "Okoku Cave" reflects the creator's personality, and the monsters that appear do not actively search for invaders and do not attack, do traps or imitate with protective colors, etc. The majority of tribes have the habit of doing.

If Budarion, who already knew the correct route, took the lead and went straight on the shortest course, the number of battles needed was kept to a minimum.

And traps and ambushes can be seen by Vandaloo with the Labyrinth Construction skill and the Danger Detection: Death magic, and the minimum battle can be easily captured.

Originally, this dungeon was for shaking off those below rank 10, so there was no such thing as Budallion, who had already reached rank 12, at the time.

The bottom dungeon boss was also killed by Budalion.

Then he entered the sanctuary where the dungeon's treasure house and gods descend, located in the back of the boss's room. Before that, he received an explanation from Budalion about the rules in the sanctuary.

When the gods descend, the sanctuary of this great meat cave changes to a space similar in nature to the sanctuary. Therefore, the audience will appear in front of the gods, in a state equivalent to the bare soul.

So never look up. If you look up and look at the gods, the soul of a person has no spirit. Keep your knees on the floor and keep your gaze down while you are watching the audience.

"Muh, the original empire. Is the sanctuary also special?"

Godwin was so groaning that he heard, but Vandaloo followed Budalion's instructions without question.

I have already met gods such as Fidirug, Melebeveil, and Zozogante, but there is no guarantee that seeing Mubbudgenge is safe.

And now Vandaloo is in a position to bother him. Certainly, it is a meritorious person who suppressed the coup, but there is no reason not to wear it and respect the rules of the country of Budalion.

So I was kneeling on the floor and looking down, but when I realized there were no Budalions or Gizanias who would have been beside me. Instead, there is a small figure on the floor where Vandaloo is staring, likely to be put on his palm, with a strange presence at the edge of his sight.

The figures are apparently Gizanians. They are kneeling down (Gizania takes a close position) and their gazes are low, so their faces are invisible, but probably so. ...... I don't know why it has become smaller.

And strange things that can be seen are not known. A silhouette alone resembles a plump human lying sideways and sticking his cheek.

However, its body surface is covered with writhing flesh or a bulge that repeatedly expands and contracts, and the presence of giant lips in the part of the belly that is the same shape as human things will not be called human.

To be honest, I don't know if I could call him a person, but somehow Vandaloo saw that it looked at himself and was fighting.

"Come well, Vandaloo"

"Yes. I'm honored to be invited! "

In response to the familiar voice of Melebevail, Vandalou greets with his gaze down.

"No, I'm grateful for responding to the unscrupulous call."

"That's right."

"I'm sorry for your troubles"

"Let's make it easier"

Apparently there is also Fidirug. When I looked around with my face down, I saw something like a tree root at the edge of my view. It seems that there is also a zozogante, the evil god of the dark forest, of the Goole country.

It is convenient if you have many acquaintances because you can feel safe just by yourself.

"Please raise your face. Of course it is only Vandaloo

"Make sure others don't look up"

"Afterwards, it is better not to look behind as much as possible."

"Absolutely. Ssu especially wants you not to look directly above "

"Are you good? I heard that this is a sanctuary rule

When she turned to Melebbeil, she hit her with the tip of a tentacle and an immovable "it".

"I don't care. Well, Mubbujenge?

Apparently, it was Mubbudgenge.

"Boo ... yeah, yeah. Please make it easy ”

Mubbugenge said that she shook her glossy lips only in a sudden appearance. As called the goddess, the voice is close to that of women.

(Even though it is a space with a nature similar to the sanctuary, it seems good that God does not see what humans are thinking in their heads as usual)

With that in mind, Vandaloo looked up, and there were countless gods in the sanctuary.

…… It may be counted in practice, but it is not clear whether the evil gods are so distinctive that they only look like another individual at first glance.

A god like a mixture of crustaceans and beetles with different colors on the left and right, with several gem-like compound eyes on the body covered in the crust.

A god that looks like various internal organs intertwined in the form of a large carnivore.

The right body is a beautiful young man, but the left body is a god with no skin and bare muscle fibers.

A headless monkey straddling a cow without a head, a god with a huge eyeball on the right hand and a huge nose on the left hand.

Conversely, the heads of various animals ... A god that only looks like a mountain at the head.

The sight of the gods and dragons in the middle, between them, was striking.

I thought this was great, but the gods were thinking the same. Because they look straight at the shape of the soul of Vandaloo.

An arm with multiple eyes and mouths arranged on the head and a number of human arms bundled together. In addition, [Devil King's Fragments] are growing in mess. Coagulated blood clots, horns and shells grow like protrusions, the surface of the arm is covered with countless suction cups, and it glows in some places eerie.

The gods thought that Vandalu, who could only see such evil gods and evil gods, and felt that they were "great" even if they looked at themselves. I have to be human. Most gods, including Mubbugenge, were stunned and lost their words.

Indeed, Melevebeil, who had once seen the soul of Vandaloo, looks calm, but was upset in the mind that it was worse than that ...

By the way, Fidirug was nervous but not upset. He was the first to see Vandalu's soul, but since he didn't consider Vandalu as a human from the outset, he just thought, "No matter what the Vandalu's soul looks like."

"And who is your business?

"Yes, yes. As a result of discussions with the concubines, the current plan of Lavovifard and his current situation. I want to thank and express my wishes ... "

"Mubbugenge, let's take care of the rest. Did you talk to us who had been negotiating 100,000 years ago?

Melebbeil has since replaced Mubbujenge's trembling voice, taking over the role of host.

While supplementing with guesses in some places, he will explain the ambitions of Lavoviferd and the circumstances that he could not move specifically because he was suppressed by the evil god.

During that time, the Budallions listened quietly.

Previously, once Budalion had an audience, Mbubudgenge appeared dignifiedly as a goddess ... in front of him with a daunting and lazy attitude if he was to say without hesitation.

It was astonishing that it was clearly nervous against Vandaloo. He raised his face several times, but each time Fidirug said "Stop Ssu", he managed to endure.

"I see. It was difficult for each other. "

After hearing about the situation, Bandarou said that Mbubjenges were relieved. To that end, Melebeil and Zozogante, who have already spoken once, sigh, "I would have said that I did not have to be scared in the dark."

Despite being an imperfect incarnation of Lavovifard, who had held them down, Mumbbudgenge was reliant and terrifying of Vandalu, who could break the same soul as the demon king Gudranis, who they still fear. I feel.

In general, what the character of Vandaloo is from the consciousness of the followers, especially Mubbudgenge and Zanarpadna. They are also important to Vida, who they call the Lord. However, it is not safe to actually meet and talk.

Building and strengthening good relations was essential, as Vandalu still has the power to equal or exceed the lower gods, such as Fidirug and Zozogante.

He turned to Fidirug, a former negotiator, and Melebbeil, who became religious in the wetlands and Tarosheim, and was able to reach within the border mountains.

"So what is the request?

"There are some ... Mubbudgenge, Zanarpadna"

"The concubine priest, Budalion, has now descended from the emperor. So I want him to be the next emperor. '

"By summoning all the gods in this place ... could you consider it?

Mabbugenge and Zanarpadna speak in a squeaking voice with a crisp and crispy shell. Zozogante and other gods nod accordingly.

"No, can I skip the kings of each country and decide just for God?

And while Vandaloo was a little confused, he looked down and saw Godwin, one of the kings of each nation, holding his fist and doing a small guts pose.

(Yes, the emperor here was an honorary post.)

Probably, there will be no objection from kings other than Godwin.

"Gods, no more to the Son who helped us--"

"I would like to decide after consulting with a general in our country, but I will talk in that direction."

"What !?"

"Oh, sorry"

Budarion, who had a strong sense of responsibility, objected, but Vandaloo replied unaware of Jesus.

As a matter of fact, may the role of this emperor come to himself after all? I thought.

The role played in the war and the magnitude of the war. And Tarosheim is naturally intact, as each country is worn out, although there are differences in size.

Rather, overall national strength has increased slightly due to the increased fighting abilities of expedition participants, including Vandaloo.

Despite being a city-state in Zanarpadna and the Demon Land, Talosheim has lizardman and Syura settlements and several towns. The population is not very large yet, but it will certainly cross the Znarpadna in the future and will develop closer to the former Noble Oak Empire.

"But I can tell you that there is little benefit. Noble Oak's ancestors were emperors because they wanted to maintain the well-being of the land."

"Well, is it okay? An honorary position has an honorary position. ''

"Eh, that?"

"seriously?

"Shut up, Godwin, Fidirug"

Godain and Fidirg sandwich their mouths with Vandaloo answering the back of Budalion. A man god carrying a battle flag on his shoulder to scold him.

Vandalu replied, "Yes," thinking that the man god was Zelks, the god of war banners of the demon country.

Because of his honor, he can maintain a certain level of voice and influence in the nation within the border mountains. In particular, the nations serve as emperors when asked by the gods they serve. Its power should outstrip the former Noble Orc Emperor.

If you don't say something strange, you can probably do most things.

Cesare will not object.

In addition to those hearts, there is a strong desire to maintain good relations with the people of countries in the southern continent in the previous war.

From now on, Budalion, Haikobold and Hygoblin will also be hard. Zanarpadna is interesting and dark elf is also interested. King Ghoul also longs for his big brother.

And they are the ones who cooperate against the Ardas.

So it's rather convenient to be an emperor.

(Maybe it's easier to get along than the royal nobles of the Orbaum election)

"Ah, but it's difficult for me to arbitrate in various countries. I have no such experience. No one is good at negotiations. "

"Don't worry too much about that. It doesn't happen very often. Unless something like Lavovifard can get out of hand, the relations between the nations are essentially peaceful. '

In Zelx's words, Vandalu thought it was OK.

"So what are the other requests?

"First, I would like you to travel around the country and interact with the people in particular. I wish it was the Heikobolt country I protect. '

At the request of Richard Hunter, a hunting god with a bow in one hand and a balance in the other, Vandalou tilted his head.

"Is it post-war reconstruction?

"No, anything is fine. Whether it's a sightseeing trip, a dinner, or a Tsuji preaching. More simply, I want you to lead me. "

"Huh ... I understand."

Is that okay? Vandalu understood while confusion as. You can see that Richards are expecting the effects of [Guiding: Mage] skills, but I don't know why they put people first.

The Budallions listening were also tilting their heads inward. But there are important reasons for the gods.

The race among the people, the dwarves, and the elves are soul-managed by the Rhodocorte reincarnation system. For this reason, Rodcorte, the god of reincarnation, can see records of races from countries inside the border mountains.

The gods of the Richards, who were told by Vida before falling asleep to the danger, are forming a barrier to prevent it. But that barrier is ineffective until the people die and the souls return to the system.

Therefore, although there is a time lag of several years to several decades and a long time of several hundred years, information on the inside of the border mountain range is eventually known to Rhodocorte.

The gods Richard did not even think that Rodcorte would imitate a detailed examination of each human record. In fact, no catastrophic event has ever occurred.

But now the situation is different. Vandalou, who can break the soul, is a non-negligible existence for Rodcorte. It was natural for the gods to think that even Lodcorte, who might have considered humans only as livestock and products flowing on industrial lanes, might now be examining human records in detail.

In order to prevent this, guide the people with [guidance: mage] and transfer the soul of the people to the Vida reincarnation system. That was the spirit of the Richards.

Of course, they can't see what's going on in Rhodocorte's reincarnation system.

However, the evil god Mbubgenge has confirmed that the souls of demons, such as the Noble Orcs, who have been guided have shifted from the Demon King Reincarnation System to another system. He speculated that the same would happen to the people who were guided.

I was confused because I still couldn't reveal the secrets of the reincarnation to the Vandaloos who were still human, but when it was good to get my consent, Richard had stroked her chest.

"I'd like to ask another one-"

While saying, Richelet takes out a clenched fist-sized flesh from her bosom and gives it to Vendaloo.

"Oh, thank you. Let's eat"

And Vandaloo took a piece of meat and ate it reflexively.

Involuntarily open your eyes to the texture that wriggles in the mouth and the incomparable taste that spreads as you chew. Does eating a thing in the state of the soul alone change the taste?

Rishale, staring at it with an astonishing expression, was stiff, with the body in a protruding position.

"I ate ..."

"Eat it? It ’s …… although sealed …… ”

"Really? Did you really eat?

"I knew it would break ..."

"Speaking of which, a few years ago, the evil spirit near the Border Mountains disappeared unnaturally.

"No, no matter how much, but this child can erode the human spirit like he does."

"that? Did you not eat?

It looked so delicious, I thought I was saying `` Please eat this '' and ate it reflexively, but when Vandaloo asked if it was bad manners, the gods were all along my head Shook.

"'No, eat more if you like"'

And one after another, the same meat chunks that Richard put out.

"Is that so? Sorry, such a delicious thing. Oh, do you eat too?

"No, I don't want to worry about certain people!"

"So, some for souvenirs--"

"I think I should eat here without taking it home!"

"I see, you should eat while fresh."

Muse and Gizania tell you to refrain from hurrying and eat up on this spot. They knew what Vandaloo was eating now.

Probably a sealed lavoviferd.

The gods who sealed Lavovifard, who had lost strength and were weakened by being crushed by Vandalu, thought that he would invite him to break the rest rather than keep it sealed. It can reduce future threats and the cost of running forever.

I didn't think Vandalu would start eating it like a tea confection, but they thought it would be the same as crushing and eating, or the gods would offer their own lavoviferd.

It was natural that the Muses were in a hurry. Despite being much less degraded than the Demon King, it is irresistible to receive pieces of evil gods.

"I remembered the food, but did the Demon King eat your crushed soul? Have you absorbed the memory of the soul you ate?

Suddenly, when asked by Vandalu, the gods bowed uniformly.

"Because the Demon King was also a god, he didn't need a regular meal ... did he ever eat anything?

"No, not really. It seems that she ate meals for some poses and entertainment, but I have never heard that she ate the soul. ''

Surprisingly, Devil King Gudranis never seems to have eaten his soul.

“… Is it necessary to test [God Eater] and [Soul Eater] at the next opportunity? So what do I do later?

Merebebeil reopened, instead of Ricciale, who had become half-hearted, after Vandalou, who was eating Lavovifado.

"Yes, two more ... No, I have one request."

One of the requests is Melebbeil, which we will restate as it will only finish in the next two mouths.

"I want you to absorb the fragments of the Demon King, which are sealed by Mubbugenge and Zanarpadna. If they are released from the seal of the fragments, they will be able to focus more on the barriers. ''

"I understand. But before that, do you need to strengthen the barrier now? If a threat is imminent, I want to know. '

The gods asked nodded to look at each other, and Zelks answered on behalf of each other. His face was distorted as if he had bitten a worm.

"……Do you get it. That was 50,000 years ago. One of the heroes who came to our hero, the hero chosen by our lord, Zantak-sama, has come close to the barrier. ''
