The Death Mage Who Doesn’t Want a Fourth Time

An alarm bell sounds in the town of Moxy, and a flag rises in the lord's palace and watchtower indicating that a monster has runaway, and people who have changed their bloods come and go.

The faces of those who evacuated, and the faces of soldiers, knights, and adventurers preparing to protect the town, also appeared terrible.

At first, when the news was brought to the town that a monster runaway had taken place, no one thought it was so serious.

Because the town of Moxy is a trading city with 30,000 settlements. Naturally, the walls are robust and there are many guards. Above all, the large number of adventurers staying in the town has reduced people's anxiety.

In fact, if the runaway occurred in a D-class dungeon, the city of Moxy would have been able to endure with plenty of time. Unfortunately, some merchants and adventurers who had left the town would have died, but no damage would have occurred in the town.

If it were a C-class dungeon, it would have caused some damage, but it would have prevented the town from being destroyed.

Adventurers mobilized by the adventurer guild's urgent request intercept monsters and protect the town. Especially in winter, there are enough adventurers to make money in the city. The strength should be enough. Everyone thought so.

However, the thought came from the Watchtower, when multiple dragons, not Wyverns, were reported to be reporting that dragons over 10 meters in length were flying in the sky.

Every time accurate information about the demon approaching the town was entered, people's faces turned blue.

When the dragon turned out to be a Thunder Dragon, an urgent request was issued not only to the Adventurer's Guild, but also to the Magician's Guild and the Tamer's Guild. All knights serving the Countess were convened and the guards ran to evacuate the people.

And it was reported that even the weakest monsters were rank 5 auger soldiers, and dozens of them, led by rank 7 auger high generals. When Earl Mörksey finished hearing it, she decided she would die today.

This is because there was no B-class adventurer in the town who could defeat a monster of rank 7 or higher alone.

All dungeons around the town of Morksey are below C class. For this reason, most adventurers who have been promoted to class B move their activities to other towns in search of a place to play an active part.

Until yesterday, that was fine. Monsters that require a B-level adventurer to defeat do not appear in town.

But it is different from today.

Many of the town's people weren't given accurate information, but ... from a distance, roars of dragons and giants were heard, and adventurers and knights ran around with terrible looks, guards Are urging people to evacuate. The seriousness of the situation is transmitted naturally.

"Well, put it in the gate!"

"This is it! Use this gate! I will continue on the street without stopping!"

The adventurer-like teenage boys and girls who rushed into the town from the gates, where the guard Kest usually refused to use messengers from other nobles.

"Grandmother, grandmother is a decoy to escape us ...!"

Kest, accused by the girl who was out of breath, couldn't say to her, "OK, I'm going to help."

"For my grandmother, I'm only thinking about myself and my loved ones now!"

It's hard to push her back inside the gate. Recently, Kest, whose physical abilities have improved, is whether the results of steady training have come out, but after all, guards. You can't do anything like a hero bard uses for the subject.

"... but still not coming back?"

"Yes, you should be near the town."

He exchanges words with senior guards to distract him from helplessness. What they were waiting for was Vandalu, who was supposed to be out of town.

Kest, a wolf beast, has known since he came to town ... but that's not all. He is already an important figure for the entire Duke of Al Krem at Moxy ... and soon.

"His disciple and follower are back and joining the battle line ... I guess it's okay to come back. What's left and what are you doing?"

Kest says that, with his worried face, his ears are turned in various directions.

For most of the town's inhabitants, Vandaloo is just a talented boy Tamer. He's not a Dragon Emperor, or a Master of Martial Arts that kicks off a vampire's spine, or a Demon King who eats and kills evil gods.

It is no exception that Kest is no exception, and if he is only a guard, he is worried.

"Surprisingly, you may be tempting dragons and giants. For some reason, it seems that some dragons and giants are reducing their numbers before they get to town."

"No, there might be such a thing ..."

Information about a mysterious group attacking the Vandaloos witnessed at the Watchtower had not been provided to the Kests.

"Thank you, Kest, you're still a newcomer. You can go escort refugees. I'm single, but I don't care ... I wonder if your family will evacuate. "

Earl Moxy sees the city as inevitable, but that doesn't mean that the people have survived. He will gather his forces to fight the demons and in the meantime, evacuate the civilians by escorting young guards and adventurers from other gates.

If the refugees move out of town too soon, the flock of monsters may be there, so the refugees will only leave the town after full-fledged combat has begun.

Senior guards are urging Kest to turn to the escort.

"No, I will remain. Even if you escape from town, it's safe to have Thunder Dragon and Wyvern flying in the sky."

"Well, that's right ... it's more likely to survive than here."

"It's okay. The family will be guarded by the guards of 'Hungry Wolf'."

"Haruki" security. It is a security company launched by Miles Rouge, Michael of Hungry Wolf, using red-light districts and slum thugs.

Not long after its launch, the former thugs in heart-marked uniforms are unnaturally more commanding and reputed for relying on them, except that they are a little harsh and courteous. .

However, the monster's opponent was heavily loaded, and this time he was to join the refugee escort. They are already performing as well as guards, such as guiding evacuation in slums and red-light districts.

...... As a guard who is losing credence in Agger's case, he feels down.

"I know that, but when you add one more person, there's not much difference."

"Isn't that senior just losing to me in the last training?"

"I said. It's time to close this gate! Receive the crossbow at the stuffing station and climb the ramparts! Follow Kest!"

"Yes, seniors!"

As the Kests closed their gates, outside of the regular gates, the power to pick up the monsters was gathering. Yes, outside the gate, not inside.

If goblins and Kobolts make up a herd of monsters, even the huge bore, hellhound, or auger, the robust walls will be able to catch the demon's offensive.

But the enemy is a flying dragon, a mountain giant taller than the city walls. Even if you rely on the castle wall, you will be able to jump over the dragon and break down with the giant's body.

It would still be better to concentrate your forces outside the gate and line up the walls with architects, mages, and others who are good at long range attacks.

"No way, I know I will die on the wall built by my ancestors that I thought so reliable until yesterday ... I don't know my life."

Earl Isaac Moxy is wearing a swiftly pulled armor, wearing an unfamiliar sword on his waist, and commanding the army.

He is the head of the Countess of Moxy, who is in charge of an inland trading city, and has no experience of leading the army in war. The actual command is left to the commander of the knights and the master of the adventurer's guild, Belard, who himself decorates.

Nevertheless, the fact that the lord remains in town without evacuating is keeping the morale of the soldiers.

"The lord must escape to the guild's basement on the way. Runaway monsters will be less sensitive to the hiding and lurking humans, so they may survive."

Isaac shook his head with a bitter smile at Verard.

"Even if you survive, if you're not lucky, you'll have to wait for your buildings to collapse and be trapped in the basement and starve. There is no face to match the Duke. "

"Failure ... I mean, nobody thinks that this will happen."

"That's right, he can only think of it as a dungeon runaway, but this is beyond common sense."

Not only Bellard but also the Master of the Magician Guild disagrees.

Certainly, runaway dungeons and monsters are treated as disasters, but they also mean man-made disasters caused by the government's failure due to failure to prepare.

However, in this case, it seems like a vicious trap, saying that when a B-class dungeon appeared at the magical area where no strong demons should appear, it almost went out of control at the same time.

This makes no sense, no matter how much the adventurer hunts and decimates monsters at the Makai.

However, if the city of Morxie, the city of trade, is lost due to a monster runaway, it is true that the Duke of Al Krem will have to ask someone for responsibility.

"I don't mind. It's up to the nobleman to give you a head when you need to. In addition, my family and the refugees escape with an escort knight.

And if I fulfill my responsibilities as a nobleman, the Duke may leave the Countess of Moxie as a nobleman or stop as much as a descendant. ''

When he said, Isaac laughed a lot. It is a self-sacrifice full of countdowns, but if the Issaac, the head of the Duke, dies, he will not punish the young child yet.

"Rather, how much strength is there?"

"The Adventurer Guild has issued an emergency request for adventurers of class C and above. Adventurers of class D and below are left to free will.

Twenty-two C-class adventurers and about fifty D-class adventurers gathered. "

Class C adventurers can defeat ranks 5 and 6 demons. However, it is difficult to defeat a monster of rank 7 or higher alone. Class D adventurers are out of the question.

However, if you're a party, even if you're a C-class adventurer, you might be able to win a demonic opponent of rank 7 or higher.

"The magician guild has also recruited volunteers. The attacking magician is located on the ramparts and the healing and granting magician is on the rear guard.

Later, Tamer Guild's Bachem is also waiting on his follower. ''

The Magus Guild is recruiting volunteers, and the Tamar Guild Branch Chief is already on the back of his follower Huge Wyvern, waiting to drop flying monsters.

By the way, the children of the mash orphanages are naturally refugees. The orphans who are calm may look strange from the surroundings, while the adults around them may seem uneasy.

"In addition, merchants have volunteers."

"Ah, Rodriguez of that" Goken ". I've heard only the name. Even though it was the original, it was lucky that the B-class adventurer joined me."

Rodriguez was hired as an escort for a merchant who offered Darussia a business of a Ghoul prostitute. He also looked calmly at the top of the adventurers, watching the swarm of demons approaching.

Normally, even with Rodriguez alone, things do not turn much.

Class B adventurers can win against dragons and mountain giants alone. However, if you have two or more dragons or giants at the same time, the winning rate will drop at once.

Rodriguez in particular is not active, but former B-class. You can get rid of bandits and monsters that appear on the streets to protect your employer. However, fighting the strong demons has almost disappeared.

For this reason, Rodriguez was aware that his arms and body were duller than in his active era. He may be able to work only like other C-class adventurers.

But Rodriguez never knew he would die here. It's not just a paranoid delusion or an escape to reality.

(Have you come? Someone who is at least equivalent to a true Class B)

And that thought turns into conviction when you take a ghoul from the inside of the gate, take Basdia and Zadiris and see Darussia who joined Simon and others.

Someone who knows her about it is buzzing. She regularly preached at the communal temple, sold herself on the red-light district Vida Street, and she was also a famous celebrity.

"Is it Darussia? You're not an adventurer, so you don't have to risk your life here ..."

"No, I have a lot of friends in this town, and my son hasn't come back yet, and I'm still good at exterminating monsters in my hometown.

They will help you. ''

"We're the followers of Van."

"Well, the Tamer himself isn't there ... but that's fine. It's out of town."

In their hands, they say, holding a cane or ax that has never been shown before.

"And the Lord, it may not be so desperate."

When Isaac again saw the herd of monsters, the number of dragons heading for the town had decreased considerably. Partly, some dragons are heading to the grassland for some reason, so I can not be careless ... However, it is good news even if the number of dragons to deal with at once is reduced.

"This could be done ... Darcia, by the way, is it not that your son will return? What about" Haruki "?"

Michael of "Haruki", which is partly seen as having the ability of a B-class adventurer, will be a great force. And basically, only the ability as a tamer is known, but the Earl was expecting even in Bandaroo, where there is a strange part.

"Oh, that's true ..."

One of the knights refuses to rely on a boy just a decade old. Some think like him, but it's common sense that slaves can't play their role without Tamer's command, and the situation is imminent. Few felt uncomfortable with the Earl's words.

"Well, Michael is a bit of a business ... his son is on the meadow with a friend."

"Well, what ?! That's why ... it's because of the dragons and some of the giants who headed to the meadow and started fighting each other !?"

"Yes, maybe because he knows a mix of poisons that can confuse dragons and giants. He's always been good at alchemy."

Simon, who is waiting behind him to see if Darusia said, was looking back, and Natania looked away.

"Is there such a poison !? And it's possible to live on dragons and giants flying in the sky ...!"

And the master of the magician guild who opens his eyes astonishingly. He's the one who distributes prosthetics at a low price, as Vandaloo did with Simon and Natania, and fears that the value of the magic limb will be reduced.

Certainly, some slums are physically disabled and unable to work satisfactorily, and some have limbs. Giving prostheses to such things is certainly going to work, given what Vandaloo has done in the city.

However, the prosthetic limbs made by the Bandarurus and the magical guild alchemists are actually different things. The pressure they are applying has little meaning.

"Yes, this is the poison of the elder secret. Before she was three years old, she began training in alchemy while crushing magic stones in a mortar, and learned to throw from a village warrior before she was seven years old. I was out there. "

Darussia so deceived. In fact, there is no such poison, and it is not the elders and warriors who taught, but the elders of Ghoul and her daughter who are proud to have a proud face in the corner of her view.

However, it is impossible to tell the truth that "the son is undead and is manipulating", so it is inevitable misconception.

"What ... what kind of poison is it !?"

"I'm sorry, it's a poison that's so difficult to handle that I've never touched it, my son is in control, and I didn't expect to see dragons or giants, so I don't have that much."

So when asked by the Master of the Magi Guild, Darussia was sweating cold. She is not so good at lying. I still struggle to keep my cheeks from getting stuck.

"Well, if the poison exists, the war situation will be greatly inclined to this side ..."

"You're saying it's difficult to handle. Don't mind the feelings of Darussia. She's trying to fight with us, as he wants to rush to his son!"

I was relieved to breathe out that Earl Moxy seeed the story.

"Well, sorry."

"No, it's good. Rather, let's get ready."

Dancing to the master of the apologizing magician guild, Darussia stared at the oncoming hordes of dragons and giants, as well as other monsters such as augers and trolls.

The number is much lower than expected, and many dragons and giants have been wounded fighting their former zombie cousin by Vanderlu. … On the contrary, the number of Thunder Dragons, originally said to be more than ten, has been reduced to only three.

The soldiers and Simon, who noticed that, turned their eyes on the hope. But on the contrary, Darussia was in trouble.

The reason was that there were only monsters that could be cleared away if seriously done.

Of course, you can't use [Chaos] skills to change your body, but if you're still a Thunder Dragon or Mountain Giant, you can beat her now without struggling.

However, if you defeat it easily, you will have to sacrifice the confrontation between Vandaloo and the reincarnated person.

"Let's do something. It's dexterous to be able to get rid of it over time without getting any casualties while stretching it moderately. I'm not confident."

"Well, I don't have any ... I think I'm overseeing the leveling. If I put my defenses first and give priority to tossing and damaging rather than defeating monsters, it should be something. I think it's rude to those who are determined to bet on their lives. ''

"It would be unnatural if there wasn't enough production to do that, and it would be impossible to cover this number if we weren't serious enough. I don't want to talk about magical girls.

It's finally hopeless if it spreads to human society. ''

"If you have finished defeating monsters, let's add monsters in my labyrinth. Because it's just a golem, some people may think weird, but will it not be true? '

Darussia, relied on by Basdia and Zadiris, was slightly nervous about the emergency response from Gufadgan, and showed his swarm to the sky in front of a swarm of monsters approaching.

"...... [Advent of the angel]!"

The angel who had been asked to descend to Darussia, who could normally drop Vida, either knew her circumstances or set up a pillar of light that would look brighter than usual, and descended on the body of Darussia.

The heroes under Hajime Fitun have begun to take steps to destroy the town of Moxy.

He was moving with caution toward the town, surrounding the east, west, north and south of the town.

"Hey, don't go under the tree. It's arched."

"It's troublesome, so I hate magicians with spatial attributes. I would love if I'm on the side."

"Legion, 'Evil God of the Labyrinth', and a spatial magician inside the border mountains that I haven't seen yet ... well, there's no shortage for my opponent."

They were alert to the magic of spatial attributes. Spatial magic, unlike fire and wind, has poor attack magic. However, there were strengths different from other attributes.

It is a trap that uses a [gate] that connects different spaces. If you fall into this, you can't help it.

They were confident that they would not die if they were not too powerful, even if they received a fireball or lightning. However, if you are sent to a physically distant place by spatial attribute magic, you are retired at that point.

"It's good to have fun, but don't be careless. Here's a small number, even if you're skipped alone, your strength is greatly reduced.

A monster victim? "

As the heroes progress, scattered corpses fall apart as they are caught in a forest tree.

"Hey, let me go."

"No, something is wrong. Why are you being abandoned? If you were hit by a herd of demons, it would be strange that you were not eaten."

The corpse was indeed fragmented, with no gut that would have been in the torso, but the rest of the limbs and head appeared intact. However, if they were killed by a runaway monster, they would still have less damage.

Certainly, if you're a huge dragon or giant, it's safe to miss a piece of prey. However, the flock contained many augers, especially trawls known for their devour, as well as other meat-loving beast-type monsters.

Their appetite is known to the spirits who have repeatedly trained in dungeons. One of the spirits felt uncomfortable when they left the meat rolling on the way.

But other heroes seem to have different opinions.

"I'm too nervous. Anyway, I hate the meat of a hard aunt, or I'm happy to eat only the internal organs."

"I was relieved that the corpse was rolling at last, but I was worried because, for some reason, none of the corpses had ever rolled."

While saying so, go on without stopping.

"... Certainly why are there so few corpses?"

However, the hero who stopped his feet noticed even greater discomfort. There are too few corpses.

Now that snow is piled up in winter, it's no surprise that few adventurers hunt at the Makai. But given the size of Moxy, there should be dozens of other adventurers with no work. In particular, the operation began in the morning. It is a time when adventurers who go to hunting and gathering in the morning request work.

The bodies of such adventurers are unusually low. As if someone had evacuated.

No, not only corpses!

"Isn't there a drop of blood? Not only does it not splatter, but also in the clothes that the corpse is wearing ... wait! This is a trap! Go down!”

The heroes noticed the anomaly and tried to deter them, but disappeared earlier than they could react.

"Ha ha ha ha ha! Did you notice ?! I say it was unusually quiet for me!"

Suddenly, the old woman's neck began to laugh. So I was convinced of the remaining hero.

"You are a legion! Isn't that busy way of talking" Valkyrie "that the captain said?"

"Mum! I was listening to our information again! I was borrowing from the old man who was fused before and it was the right answer!"

The woman's head turns into a young woman with beautiful white hair and skin. The scattered pieces of meat wrigged, gathered at her and began to fuse.

"Your companion has been sent to you by the power of your brother, somewhere outside the town, with the help of the fellow Jack!

"... I'm determined."

The hero began to rush to Walkure, asking him to instigate. …… Very fast, avoiding Valkyrie, heading to town.

"Ignore you and carry out the strategy!"

Losing friends is painful, but it can be a war. The important thing was that the hero thought what to do after being trapped.

Even if you reach the town alone, it's a fuss just to make a hole in the wall. The Demon King must send more strength to the town in order to protect the important town.

However, a great man stood in front of a hero who ran away from stealth.

"You are Miles Rouge!"

"Oh, you know my real name."

Neither did Vandalu believe that the Legions alone could prevent the spirits from approaching the town.

As a result, the Miles were located outside the town.

"Chu !! I wanted to use it closer to the town, but I can't do it."

The hero stopped and moved away from Miles. Then yell and shout.

"[Erotic], activate!"

At that moment, the whole body of the hero shines and the intimidation swells.

"If only this body has the power of a rabbit, it's my own ..."

Pull out each of the two daggers that were on the belt, and prepare for Miles.

But Miles laughed fearlessly with reddish lips.

"It's like a vampire of the kind .... but I'm sure it's still time and I'm gonna cut my back ..."

"What?"

At that moment, the dark light that gushed out of Miles' feet wrapped him around, and the ghost breathed involuntarily.

"Let's begin the battle between the angel of God and the minions of the Demon King!"

"... I say something bad about people."

A voice that can only be heard by Miles, muttering Vandaloo's alter ego.
