The Death Mage Who Doesn’t Want a Fourth Time

The whole body is covered with scales, and a monstrous giant monkey with countless tentacles rushes in place of the head from the neck.

"[Devil terrible fire!]"

The skill of Heinz's [Shinjuku swordsmanship], whose ability value has been enhanced with [Heroism], is divided. But without swaying purple blood, the rest of the clan is shaken, and the rest of the monkeys try to attack him.

[■■■■■■■■■! !

A giant monkey, screaming inaudible to human ears, raised his unusually long arms toward Heinz.

"Heintz, don't worry about small fish!"

However, a series of Jennifer's fists flick it off, penetrating the strong scales of a giant monkey.

"Jennifer says, you stab the evil god! With my knife and bow, he's not enough!"

Beyond Edgar's gaze, there was a giant yet oddly shaped dragon flying in the sky. A monocular evil god with five heads, generally resembling a hand, was the boss of this hierarchy.

"Do you get it!"

"I will support you, my God Mill, calm down the power of sleep ... [Awakening of all abilities]!"

Diana prays to the goddess of sleep, Mill, and gives Heinz a magic that grants her sleeping power.

The evil god, noticing it, opens his mouth, lined with fangs, to Heinz when he murders five monoculars. There, evil light, different from the pure shine they use, shines and grows in an instant.

"[Extreme provocation]!"

However, the murder was forcibly pulled by Deliza's [Fire Flame] martial arts.

"GYAOOOOOOOO! !

Light bullets from the evil god's five jaws were fired at the dwarf's petite body. If you hit it directly, five powerful attacks that blow away without leaving any rubble in a modern citadel will approach at an unavoidable speed.

"[Bright steel wall], [Bright steel body]!

However, she raised the Orichalcum shield, and at the same time doubled her defense and anti-magic defense through martial arts, withstood the evil god's attack and stayed there.

Whether it has further aggravated the wrath of the evil gods, he tries to release light bullets again toward the DeLiza despite the effect of [Extreme Provocation] has ceased.

"[Transcendence of the limit], [Transcendence of the holy sword] ......... [Ikkikishin]!"

However, attention was being directed too far towards the Delyzer. As a result, Heinz's sword, which ran up the sky with magic items, was cut off from both sides.

"GYAAAAAAA ... Woooooooooo! !

However, the evil god tried to struggle with four heads that were safe even if he left and right, but all his heads were beaten off by the martial arts released by the blade returned by Heinz.

"It's forty-nine layers now. From the spirit of the spirits, I can't see the end yet."

"It's absolutely like it's a real thing from here."

Heinz and his five-colored blades, who have finished defeating the monstrous giant monkey that appeared with the evil gods, have finished their wound treatment and are eating snacks on the steps leading up to the fifty-story.

In this dungeon, every time you die, you will be returned to the safe "town" without any damage, but you will have to recover your own wounds and lost stamina during the capture. Perhaps the most efficient way to return to the "city" with your own blade every time you clear a level is the most efficient way, but nobody really did it.

The pain is real, even if you know you won't die, and you're not confident that you'll be able to regain your senses after leaving this dungeon if you get used to such an unusual condition.

In the first place, this is God's test to surpass the hero Bellwood. Such an insidious approach would be contrary to the expectations of God who gave the test.

"I felt like Joshua was" not yet, "but how about everyone?"

"Gauche was similar."

"I think that was also the case for Filrietta"

What Heinz was talking about was the heroes they had learned and the heroes who had dropped on. The spirits who descended on the thirty levels and stood before them seemed to be a test for that.

The hero has a stronger ego than many angels because of its former human nature. Therefore, I was able to feel the will of the hero when I used [Emperor].

It's not just a conversation, it's about the atmosphere. By the way, if you drop the spirit of God who has more power than the spirit, you will not be able to fully understand the intention of God's spirit in the human spirit, and if it is not so compatible with God, nothing will happen do not know.

"Luke's bastard ... I feel like he was laughing at me somehow."

"That hero, what will respond to your skill activation?"

"I guess it's hard on us by dare to be harsh. In any case, it's unlikely that we'll end at the next level."

Heinz tried to guess, from the atmosphere of the spirits, where he was now in the entire dungeon, but concluded that it was still far from the deepest.

In fact, the perceived difficulty is only lower than the thirty levels that fought the heroes. ... Maybe the heroes are stronger than the mighty demons swarmed by evil gods.

"But I think it's coming around halfway."

Deriza said, tracing his finger with the wound on Orichalcum's shield.

"After fighting the heroes on the thirty levels and learning [Heroism], only monsters that have hardly ever been recorded in the magician guild or temple archives have come out.

Maybe it's a monster directly created by the Demon King Gudranis and his evil gods. ''

"I guess. Even the giant tentacle monkey that I just fell down couldn't understand at all just by seeing how it was alive. If I tried to cut off the internal organs with martial arts, the whole belly was meat? It's a danger of the evil gods. ''

As Edgar says, demons are also living things. While rank-ups can dramatically alter the appearance and innately possess unique abilities, it is the same as ordinary creatures that eat, feed, breed, and retain their offspring.

But that monster had no such organs.

"In mythological times, it has been reported that evil gods often created monsters that could do nothing but fight, instead of being powerful, in order to be a force against powerful heroes.

Most were defeated by heroes and their servants, and only a few survivors were created in bodies that could only live for a short period of time, rather than leaving offspring, so that after the battle with the Demon King ended, it was only remembered by the gods It was written. "

Since it only appeared during the war, it was not officially named or studied. It was only born and consumed on account of the evil gods who were the Creator.

"... When I hear that, it's pathetic to know that it's not a real thing, but a phantom, and how guilty it is to create and play with life on its own, even though it's a monster. I understand.

… Did Bellwood notice that and bothered? Arda to teach it to us? "

"Heintz, we're derailed. Deliza and Edgar want to say that the monsters of the Jindai era and the hierarchy where evil gods appear as obstacles, so we're probably going too deep. Is that so? "

In Jennifer's words they nodded.

"Well, the Bellwood brave guys seemed to use such monsters as usual ... D-class adventurers kicked them off like Kobold hunting, and even the evil god could win the weak guys.

But maybe I think we're halfway there. ''

"That's right. If you know how much that evil god is, it's going to be a guide .... Diana, don't you know?"

"Unfortunately, it's not in my knowledge. I didn't give myself."

Diana didn't know about the five-headed monocular dragon evil ... the Five Evil Dragon, Fidirug.

"Some of the evil gods under the Demon King are said to have been deliberately left unrecorded. By leaving their names, they hoped that they would attract awe and not help.

But I've heard that most of them are weak. "

"Actually, that evil god is an exception, and it is unlikely that there is anything higher ..."

"It's obvious. If you can beat such a high god opponent without much injury, you can go deeper deeper."

Jennifer replied, "Well," Edgar dropped his shoulders, and Heinz and his friends relaxed. They are aware that they are getting stronger.

Before entering this dungeon, you rarely encountered them, and in this environment there were many opponents who could not win unless they put their full power.

In the thirty levels, members other than Heinz also gained the higher skill, [Evil Advent], which is said to be able to reach only one in a thousand people even if they have acquired [Emperor Advent] skill.

After clearing thirty hierarchies, he has made two more job changes.

It is not impossible for us today to overcome that "Trick of Zaccato". I think, Heinz still couldn't read the intent of the gods who created this dungeon.

(Do you want us to be a warrior who can pass even in the battle with the Demon King? There have been rumors that the Demon King will be resurrected ... but why did you create a dungeon and make it appear before us? (There must have been "Heir to Bellwood")

But no matter how much you think, there is no answer. Believing that it must be at the end of this staircase, Heinz and the rest after the break proceeded to fifty layers.

"Where is this ... imitating some underground temple or archeological site?"

It was somewhere dark and thick stone pillars lined up endlessly. Until now, the interior of this dungeon had often been outdoors because the monsters that appeared were often large, but Heinz and others were a little confused by sudden changes.

And the confusion was exacerbated by the appearance of three people from the shadow of the pillar. Except for the heroes, they were fighting only enemies that have deviated significantly from their human form recently. Moreover, none of the figures look strong at all.

But as the figures approached, the moment they became clearly visible, the puzzle turned into a vigilance.

"Hey, isn't that guy !? That original vampire, Tenesia, that we stabbed!"

An over-sexed poisoned woman with a plump body wrapped in clothes with many slits. The original vampire, Tenesia, stands in an expressionless manner, as if she had only that hysterical character.

"Then, is Gubamon next to it?-The characteristics of an old man lean like a dead tree with large eyes are as recorded in the record."

"But rumors have told me that someone has beaten me, though it's not real at all."

An old man turned his eyes to Deliza and Diana ... the original vampire, Gubamon, responds nothing. It's like an elaborate doll.

"Then, this is the last one of the original vampires, Virgin, who serves Hihiryshkaka. There's no reason for that.

And the last one was the smallest.

A boy with white hair and a hollow odeye that doesn't feel animated, and a dumpy boy with skin like a corpse.

"Vandaloo ... why do you appear in this dungeon?"

I met Heinz once in the town of Niak, but I never forgot. Heinz, who realizes that it is not real like other demons and evil gods, but asks him unintentionally.

Vandalou and the vampires opened their mouths toward Heinz.

"[Devil King's Horn], activate"

"[The Demon King's Shell], it's activated"

"[Devil King's Blood] and [Kaku], activate"

Kuratas, the god of record, is a subordinate god of Alda, the chief of the dungeon challenged by the Blade of the Five Colors, and keeps the book open, a symbol and deity of himself. , Was watching the state of Heinz.

`` The original vampire Tenesia reproduced from Heinz's own records, and the original vampire Gubamon reproduced from the record of `` Knight of Liberation '' before falling, and whether it is Vandaluo at that time ''

Arda appeared there.

"Yes. The two original vampires are not already the enemies of the five Heinz one by one, so they appeared on the same level to highlight the anomalies of Vandaloo.

Of course, the recreated Vandaloo will be a more fierce fight than the real thing at the time, so Heinz will not be able to win easily. ''

The Vandaloos, which were reproduced in the record of Curatus, did not reproduce the original personality. It's not a doll because the real thing doesn't come down like the heroes.

However, the reproduced Vandalu has no sweetness that he has. They will not hesitate to attack their fellow fighters, and will use magic to create poisons and pathogens that they did not use at the time.

Naturally, [Death Magic] is also reproduced.

"Do you not reproduce another original vampire, Vircain? Sure, it's a long time ago, but it should have a record. '

"He's still alive. Recreating old information from old records, which may be somewhat weaker than now, may give Heinz a prejudice when he later encounters the real thing. So I omitted it. "

"I see ... your deity is stunning. Without you, attempts to encourage Heinz to grow in this dungeon would not have been successful. '

Curatos shook his head, saying, "No," to Arda.

"If you are not in this special dungeon, you will only create a well-formed vision. Just like in the battle of the Jindai era, we are just tiring now that we can't help fighting the new Demon King. ''

Curathos is a "god of record" with no own temple and few independent followers. Although he has recorded a great deal of knowledge since the days of Jindai, he has no authority over battle.

He was convinced that the only use of his power was here.

"After this, the demons and evil gods of the Demon King Army will be hit again from the fifty-first level, and the servants of Vandaloo who recorded from the 60th layer will be mainly placed. On the sixty-five layers, there is Vandaloo at the time when Elvin of "Five Snakes" was defeated. And from the 66th floor, there will be the Demon Army and the Vida faction in the age of the Jindai, "Storm of Violence" and "True" Randolf

"... I don't think it's a bit difficult."

Those who line up with Kuratos are standing in front of Heinz when they leave the dungeon, and they are the enemies they must defeat. In particular, Hidden Vida believers in the Storm of Violence could in some ways be more threatening than Vandaloo.

Unlike Vandaloo, who uses undead and odd monsters, the face of the Storm of Violence is a legitimate adventurer, except that it is incredible.

And the devastating part ... The general public supports the defeat of noble nobles and unscrupulous merchants as politicians on the spot.

Even if he is a Vida follower and makes his members public with vampires and dark elves, some will not stop supporting him.

Not everyone in the Amid empire's sphere of influence is an enthusiastic Aldalist.

"True" Randolph is not a Vida follower ... but he doesn't know how to move when things happen. In the past, he was a young man with highlights, but now he has no shadow.

Once they appeared around the dungeon where Heinz and others were, the gods who were watching them reported that they disappeared immediately, looking at the dungeon from a distance and not doing anything. That's it.

After all, now he may have died unlike in the past. Since it cannot be relied on as a force, I will use it as an obstacle for Heinz as well as Schneider.

In addition, Heinz and his team have grown up to the point that Vandaloo has grown so far ... considering the mutation, it is enough to add all of "True" Randolph and "The Storm of Violence", and to collectively defeat Vandaloo reproduced from the latest record You have to get it.

"What about other hero candidates? I'm more worried about their inability to test like Heinz do. ''

The heroes who were chosen and provided blessings by the subordinate gods of Alda and the "gods of soldiers" who turned to the Alda forces. They were the force to fight Vandaloo with Heinz in the future.

However, there are too many to test each one in a special dungeon like Heinz. No matter how Arda is the Great God, his power is limited.

"It's almost all right. By the time of the upcoming decisive battle, many will have the ability to be a hero. ...... "God of the Soldier" Although the hero of Zares is a bit late

Is it the youth who sealed the [Runaway [Devil King Fragment]]? He was in some sense unlucky. '

If he died, Zales sent his spirits and artifacts directly, but he had the qualities but was still an average guard. He was inferior to D-class adventurers. As a result, he was unable to withstand the descendants of Zarez, and suffered muscle pain throughout his body, and suffered more than a dozen stress fractures.

Of course, Zarez, who was unable to do so, used more power than planned.

Awareness seems to have returned in a few days, but he's been much slower than the other hero candidates.

'But much better than losing. You have little time to find another candidate.

Is the situation inside the border mountains unchanged?

'I'm listening like that. But it is true that Vida is back. "

There is a barrier inside the border mountain range, and the gods including Arda can only be seen from afar. With the eyes of God, it is possible to see the state of the earth from above the clouds, but it is almost impossible to see because of the barrier.

…… Especially in the case of Tarosheim, even if you stare at it for a long time, even weak angels and sometimes even spirits may complain of abnormalities in the mind, so it will not even be frightened.

However, the movement outside the border mountain range can be understood in detail.

'Some of the members of the election of Orbaum and Vida outside the continent have claimed Vida's blessing. Some say they received the oracle. Some will deceive, but not all. '

"Was the blood shed at that time was the effect of the defeat of the god who punished Vida?"

"It's hard to admit, but it seems like he's recovering well after he's released ... he's recovering too fast."

He was wounded and weakened by Bellwood and Arda himself, and applied several gods of the Pile of Law. Moreover, human society Vida believers are falling into the minority. If the Gods were broken and Vida was released, she would not have been able to bless others for at least a hundred years.

That is, unless you imitate the soul before reincarnation and use your own flesh to provide protection.

It has given blessings in less than a decade, though to a few. Probably, he was trying to tell his followers to his resilience and reinvigorate his religion, but Arda's calculations would not have even made it possible.

"Probably Vandalu. He brings together a new race of Vida within the border mountains, and uses the power of the created undead and demons to worship it. "

"Those who are likely to be one of the glorious great gods are now alike to the abominable evil gods. After all, was he upset?

Curatos looks down if he can't help, and asks so without anyone. As he remembers, remembering Vida's chosen hero, Zachart, Arda shook his head, "I don't know."

"As you see in the record, he had a strange idea at first, but not evil. Rather, they tended to try to maintain the harmony of their peers, but from some time they began to collide with the Bellwoods, and their actions became ineffective.

Vida had wondered if he had gone mad since his loss, but he may have already been deceived by Zacht before that. '

That's horrible. I don't know if he was aware of it, but he was so secretive and clever that many gods, including Vida, and evil gods were not even recorded in the record of Curatus.

"Lord, there is a report on the movement inside the border mountains"

At that time, the angel who appeared began to report that he would bow.

"There are monsters that have never been seen in Tarosheim inside the Border Mountains. And there was something big celebration. Aside from the strange monsters who are guarding the surroundings, new races of Vida and fearless undead and demons are also making noise and throwing something into the sky. ''

Despite the barrier, Arda returned to his present mind, frowning upon uncertain reports.

"It's not an army ceremony?

"I can't say for sure, but probably. There is no appearance of what seems to be an army. "

"Curatus, was Vida's holiday or festival today?

"... No, there shouldn't be any. But since I have no record of the escape of the new tribe of Vida inside the Border Mountains, it may be a newly set holiday. ''

Aruda seemed convinced that Kuratos was right. Festivals are important for the gods. It is indispensable to maintain faith that does not change every day.

However, I was worried about something.

"... are you throwing something? Please explain in detail about that something.]

The productions performed at the “Lambda” festival often use magic to scatter flower petals on the wind, or use colored light to color building walls and the night sky. Launching magic that makes loud sounds into the sky is also a popular production. However, might an angel say "something" pointing to such common things?

It seems that he did not understand the angel he was asked for.

"It's ... they're throwing spheres about the same size as a human head, and when launched, it's like a magic item that explodes in the air, producing sounds and unusual colored flames in the night sky. It's from outside the barrier, so I don't know what it is.

However, there are people who have seen some people test the power of exploding spheres before, so I wonder if that's the case. '

"It looks like they are using magic items made as weapons for the festival, Arda!"

Yes, Kuratos put together, but the story of the angel stimulated Arda's old memory.

"No way ... fireworks. Is it gunpowder?

Ciratos was surprised to hear the mutter that Arda leaked.

"Hanabi? Lord, what is Hanabi-

"I forbid everything I hear now! Go down! Go down!

Curatos, who interrupted the message of the angel he was trying to hear, gave a strong hindrance and ordered him to leave. The angel hastily said, "Why! ] And disappeared.

After confirming that, Kuratos asked Arda.

"My Lord Arda, it is not like you that you will be utterly contraindicated. Is it true that Vandalou has created gunpowder ... even the gun powder Bellwood described as the world's most detestable invention?

The teachings of Arda and Bellwood deny most of the technology of another world. It is a rule that protects the room where this “lambda” world's unique cultural civilization develops, but some technologies have been contraindicated to protect the world itself.

Research on steam engines that destroyed forests and polluted the atmosphere in the world of Bellwood, and fossil fuels that polluted the atmosphere and the oceans from which numerous wars began. And the most abominable invention, gunpowder, which created countless weapons and killed countless human lives as it existed.

Unlike the nucleus that Zachart tried to reproduce, it is a dangerous technology because it can be mass-produced without the special power of the hero if he knows only the manufacturing method.

"However, it can be called Vandalu, and it was born anywhere. Is it impossible to create gunpowder from scratch? No, if it was in "The Trial of Zachart" ... Gufadogan, who protects Zachart's heritage, may have kept it. He created it by seeing it. '

As Kuratos said, Arda was aware of the terrible possibilities.

Unbelievable behavior and ideas, special powers like no other, [Guru] and technology from another world. There is only one answer that can be inferred from this combination.

"Is it true that Vandaloo was summoned from another world?

Given that, if Vandaloo were the same as the Bellwoods, he would understand his anomaly.

"No, Arda! It has been recorded that he was born in this world as Dumpel! As long as you do not reincarnate ... No, no way, Rodcorte, who was so frustrated that he had summoned a hero from another world, would have no notice to us about such a rogue ... !

Despite being upset, Kuratos and Arda noticed. I have to do it with Rodcorte.

Indeed, Rodcorte opposed the summoning of the hero. However, the reason was that "their reincarnation system summoned the inhabitants of the world that are not under their jurisdiction", and did not accuse the inhabitants of the different worlds.

Transmigrating the souls of another world within the jurisdiction of their reincarnation system to this "lambda" world, presumably retaining the memories and knowledge of the previous life, is not nothing but an abhorrent thing for Rodcorte I wonder.

"I guess it's true ... Curatus, this story is still only between me and you. Do n’t move, do n’t make noise ”

"Understood. Lord! "

It's only speculation, and there's no evidence. But if this guess is correct, all children around the world will be unreliable.

"Is Rodcorte sending incarnates? And is he planning something with the band, or is he not in control of the band?

I have to check first. '
