The Death Mage Who Doesn’t Want a Fourth Time

In the sanctuary of the Holy Deity, Arda returned to his peers and watched over Heinz, who tried again, with a complex mind.

"... every day, people are not going to be God's wishes."

With a sigh, Miller apologized, "Sorry."

"I was persuaded, but I was not heard. I told you exactly what we knew about Vandaloo, but he seemed to see something different from us. "

Arda instructed Mill to disclose to him information about Vandaloo that he could have to keep Heinz from hesitating.

Of course, the Alda gods do not know everything about Vandalu. However, Vandaloo was sent to this world by having the shards of the souls of the four heroes, including the `` fallen hero '' Zaccato, and the extra interference of Rodcorte, the `` god of reincarnation '', from another world. He also told him he was a reincarnation.

The raid on the city, unfolding Gordian High Priest and former fellow Riley in a battle against the Milg Shield Expeditionary Force, robbing the city of innocent settlements of land and property.

The annihilation of slave mines in the Dukes of Hartner, depriving slaves, inciting pioneers, and ruining the Red Wolf Knights. In the Duke of Sauron, killing Raymond Paris, who was supposed to be the same Vida follower, and using its corpse to destroy the original vampire Gubamon and rob [the devil's fragment].

I told them all. ... All information was viewed from the Arda side, but all are true.

This clears Heinz's hesitation, and Mill knew that he would renew his determination that Vandaloo had to be defeated before he could go to the new Gudranis.

But the opposite was the case, Heinz praised Vandaloo.

A religious believer, such as the High Priest Gordan, was angry at the wickedness of Vandaloo and would have renewed his determination to defeat him as soon as possible.

However, Heinz told Vandaloo that he was helping not only the new race of Vida, but also a large number of those who were not, and in comparison he ridiculed himself.

Mill continued to tell Heinz that it was not, but his intentions remained the same after treatment.

"It's fine. We teach people, but how we receive them is at the discretion of each one.

And there are aspects of Vandaloo's work that help people, as Heinz said. '

"Maybe it is ... but do you acknowledge the existence of Vandaloo?

'I didn't say that. My will will not change, but Heinz need not have the same will. That's it. "

In the past, the Alda gods created human beings as guiding beings. It was not just a source of energy to devote my religion or myself.

Therefore, human beings have their own will and the ability to think. So humans sometimes fall and make mistakes, but that is only a negative aspect of human potential.

"But if Heinz doesn't change his mind ..."

"I know it"

Heinz sees the future of the country of Vandaloo in danger. What happens when the core Vandaloo disappears from the country that is being led by Vandaloo?

In other countries, if the government suddenly collapses, it is in danger. Even if a successor is determined in advance, it splits and develops into a civil war. There are many cases where they have been destroyed and absorbed by other countries.

But there is a danger in the country of Vandalu, the Empire of Vidal, that is not found in countries of human society. First, there is a Vandalu mad who regards Vandalu as the supreme being.

In ordinary countries, there are those who worship loyalty enthusiastically to the politicians. But the Vidal Empire has an unusually large number of such people. That number far exceeds the imagination of Arda and Rodcorte, who are thus dangerous.

But the ones that Heinz considers more dangerous than the Vandalous madness are the powerful demons who support the demons, especially the undead.

It is difficult for even A-class adventurers to defeat, and once they rampage, monsters that destroy the mountains, break the sea, cover the sky, and fill the land. It is left unchecked.

It would be nice if monsters could keep their reason after Vandaloo's death. That would be possible for a highly intelligent race. However, among the demons, expecting the undead to do that ... I can't believe it.

The reason is that the undead are more prevalent in losing individuals than in sane individuals. He is dominated by the untraining that he had in his lifetime, the fear and despair that filled his consciousness just before his death, his hatred and his resentment, or he only hates and attacks living beings.

It would be nice if undeads released by Vandaloo's [guidance] from such a state disappear themselves following Vandaloo. However, if you go mad from the sadness and despair of losing your master, you cannot imagine how much threat it would be if you returned to the original wild undead by losing [guidance].

In the future, hundreds or thousands of years later, when Vandaloo will no longer exist, the “King King” Volks and Bones, Knochen, the “Emperor's Hounds” Ira, and attribute ghosts have become much stronger than now. If they lose their insaneness and devour destruction and slaughter, countless villages and towns, even fortresses protected by mighty troops, will quickly turn into piles of rubble.

Do the people at that time have the strength to compete against them? ... How many S-class adventurers are as powerful as them? In the worst case, the intellectual life form of Bang Gaia continent may become extinct and become the continent of the Second Demon King.

If you want to stop, there is only now. Only now can the gods of the Ardas gather and fight to defeat the Vandalus, and there is no way to prevent ruin that might be in the distant future.

So Heinz asked Vandaloo in the moment, "Are you ready for yourself? If so, what is it prepared for? ' If he doesn't answer, be prepared to stop if he can't be satisfied with the answer.

But that means if Vandaloo gives an answer that Heinz understands, he won't defeat him.

What will Heinz do then? He valued Vandalu as more appropriate for helping the new tribe of Vida and helping more people than himself. He acknowledges that he is the enemy of his mother for Vandaloo.

If you guess then, he may be trying to be killed by himself.

"If Heinz changes his mind through the awakened conversation with Bellwood ... no, we cannot expect too much."

This is because Bellwood is the same in that it has lost the effect of Guidance. Of course, he has charisma as a substitute for God, but is it possible to change the heart of Heinz now?

Arda thought so far, but suddenly raised her face and shook her head.

“Even if you worry about all the anxiety factors, the situation is not getting better. With Bellwood, my hero could show Heinz the right path. ''

Milla seemed interested in Alda's words, which showed her trust in Bellwood.

"I'm sorry, Alda, is Bellwood so far? I don't believe in the little hero god, but I haven't exchanged words directly ... I know, mainly because of the anecdote of his strength. "

By the time Mill arrived at The Goddess of Sleep, Bellwood was sealed off in favor of The Evil God.

It is also a topic among the gods why Bellwood, who has the ability to surpass the same battle hero Fermaun Gordo and Nine Road, has become a companion to `` the evil god of the chain of sins '' which is only one pillar of the evil god It has become.

Did Bellwood take care of it, or was "the evil god of sin" set up a cunning trap? At any rate, he was attracted only to the character of "the hero god" who leads people through heroic speeches and battles, and his image of leading a worried believer was faint.

"Really. Was Bellwood already asleep when you became God? ... Bellwood's words had the power to appeal to and inspire people.

The one who succumbed to despair was once again inspired to fight the Demon King's army, and was able to discourage those trying to betray him from fear of the Demon King. Zachart's runaway could not be stopped altogether, but there are countless others who gained courage in his words and challenged the Demon King.

It's the same with the gods. '

"The gods, too? Not only giants, dragons, and beast kings with physical bodies?

Mill was surprised to see that Bellwood was moving the gods from being a real person. Arda nodded to her, "Yes."

"Ogami including me also exchanges words with him--"

At that time, another god appeared in the sanctuary of Arda.

"Alda, you've been reported!"

"Is you direct? The God of Horns, Sirius

The god, called Sirius, looked like a barbarian. She wears a wolf's fur, paints her face and chest with dye, and has a waist made of stone on her waist.

It looks like a subordinate god of the war god Zantak, but he is now a subordinate god of the deceased God of Wind and Art, Sizarion, and above all, an ancient god.

"Yes. My angels and the heroes are in charge of watching the continent where Botyn sleeps. It has been confirmed that the Demon King is still playing in Al Krem. I wonder if there is no problem even if I leave now.

So, it's an important report .... Bassus seems to have betrayed and turned to Vida. Same with Zermeria and Hamul

A grave report from Sirius, the goddess of the Ardians who would have united for the preservation and justice of this world, has turned traitors to the Vidas who are supporting the Demon King Vandalu.

To his surprise, Mill almost cried, but Arda returned to Sirius with his hand.

"……Really. What happens to the Bashas sanctuaries?

"It seems that the whole sanctuary has moved. Is it already difficult for us to make contact? However, there is evidence that the world is being managed and maintained. "

"Really. …… This is my fault, which continued to use Bashas and others to monitor the interior of the Border Mountains. Tell them that you don't need to take responsibility for Bashas, and then return to Botin's defense again. '

When Sirius bowed, he retreated from the sanctuary of Arda. After seeing it off, Mill calmed down and talked to Arda in a voice as thought.

"My Lord, will the same thing happen again when the gods turned over to Demon King Gudranis more than 100,000 years ago?

Will traitors, such as Levezfor and the Beast King of the Boar, succumb to the Demon King's terror, continue? Arda could not answer that question.

"Now when we need unity. The gods must work closely with each other so as not to leave Vandaloo and Vida open. '

I just said it. But I was thinking about something else in my heart.

(I feel painful when I face difficulties more than expected. Even if I am God, I need a symbol that is centered and inspires everyone.

(If Heinz became a symbol like Bellwood 100,000 years ago, this trend may be stopped.)

The day after the ceremony, Al Krem had a lingering reverberation and was more crowded than usual.

Although it was not in time for the day of the ceremony, the minstrel sought to compose a new heroic tale, merchants sought business opportunities, and gathered information with the pretext that the noblemen of various places celebrated the safety of the city, One after another.

Workers were also starting to gather for jobs related to construction work, as the Duke promised to rebuild the Volgadon Temple in the Holy Land of the Wilderness. Right now, it's only from nearby villages, of which people from all parts of the Duke of Al Krem will seek jobs.

In addition, it has been decided that researchers from the magician guild will be dispatched from various places to investigate the giant black crystals generated from fragments of the demon king, allegedly left by evil gods.

For the time being, the bustle of Al Krems will not end. There will likely be some thieves trying to take advantage of the people who have come, but this has not been a problem so far.

"Hello, wait for five skewers"

"I'm gonna gobgob skewers!"

And in the square, the stalls were still open today.

"Chilled herbal tea, wait!"

"... No, no, you're a seller."

Sandy, a well-dressed middle-aged woman with a generous sandwich, spoke to Darussia, a saleswoman at a skewered stall in an apron, with a wrinkle in her forehead.

"Well, Mr. Sandy. We've started skewering gobgob from today, maybe one?"

"Is the goblin meat rumored that Gob Gob isn't that bad ?! Then, why don't you get one?"

Sandy, who seems interested in hearing the rumors, receives a skewer from Darussia and immediately starts eating gobgob.

"Wow ... this is ... it's a pretty mysterious taste. It looks purple and doesn't look very good, but it's almost like a vegetable and it goes well with a salty cheese sauce ... … It might be good for sandwiches.

That's not it! "

Sandy returned to his sanity after squeezing the texture and taste while thinking about using it for a sandwich.

"Why did you become an honorary noble, but I heard that you are stalls with parents and children, I am!"

"That's why ... I'm not an adventurer and I'm not working in the temple ... and originally I'm working with everyone in my son's stall, so what do you ask? I'll be in trouble if I get it. ''

Yes, answering Sandy, the Countess of Honor of Darussia Zaccato. Legally, they are nobles, and they are not the kind of people ordinary people can shout at like Sandy.

However, she is now opening a stall with her parents at the main gate square in Al Krem and selling cooked skewers at a reasonable price.

The people of the city initially sought to pretend that they were some sort of joke or a similar stranger ... but they had no choice but to embrace reality because they were not willing to hide from Darussia.

And since there was no atmosphere for the Dalcias, they decided to treat them as normal, as they did in the past with Sandy and the Alchemist stall five-pointed star.

…… Some of the adventurers and peddlers who just arrived in Tokyo today haven't noticed that they haven't seen the ceremony yesterday.

"A praying mantis! Ask five gobgob skewers and 5 oak skewers here! Afterwards, a substitute for fruit water!"

"I understand! I'm not a mantis, it's an empusa, so I'll remember it and go home!"

"Well, don't you sell liquor? I guess he did it yesterday."

"It's forbidden to drink alcohol outside of this city except on special days. I just gave it out at the ceremony yesterday, when the Duke's permission was given."

However, since Empusa's Musée and Ghoul's Kachía also sell with Darussia, they seem to know that they are related to Darussia.

Perhaps parents and children who have become honored nobles may assume that they are operating with newly hired clerks and subordinates.

"There were so many things that I couldn't get away from the city in the next few days, so I thought it would be nice to get everyone to know about Vida's new race and subordinates while earning a stay."

"Is the cost of staying an honorary noble? I wonder if you will get a large mansion with servants?"

To Sandy, astonished to hear, Darussia shook her head a little, "I can't get it."

"Even if you become an Honorable Earl, you don't suddenly get rich. You get a medal, and I'm the same as the Earl's nobleman, Vandalu, who is legally treated like a noble child. You don't get a position. You can get the same pension as the nobleman of the Earl rank, but we're a big household. "

Honorable aristocracy is a system that rewards successful adventurers and commoners for treating them like nobles. Therefore, you can receive the medal, status, and pension according to the rank, but that's it.

He is not hired as a civil or military officer, and of course he has no territory.

However, if you think about it, it is natural that those who become honored aristocrats have lived up to that time, especially adventurers who are often B-class or A-class adventurers, a property that already exceeds the average Hoi noble It is not unusual to have

Honorable aristocrats are also given the title easily, in order to reward the achievements of non-nobles, and if there are too many aristocrats, they will hinder the rule of the future.

As a result, there was no system to give honorable nobles a mansion or money worthy of the title.

"Of course, we don't really have the money because we've received a separate reward for evil defeat."

"Well, why the latter ... would you like the new race of Vida and your followers to get closer?"

Looking at Muses and Kachia, Sandy seemed to be largely successful.

Other people are-.

"Wow, my legs are moving."

"No shaking"

"I'm not going to get too far away from me."

Gizania is a large species of Arachne that circulates around the stalls with children on a special saddle on the lower body of a spider.

If Sandy knew about the “Earth” amusement park, he might have imagined a mini SL.

"" Chu ""

"Red rat!"

"This time a silver rat!"

"I'm a white rat!"

On the other hand, Marol, Urumi and Suruga's three sisters, Rinzo, are flat and stretched on the ground, belly on the ground, attracting spectators as well as a large number of children.

"" "Tutu Chuchu!" "

Then, Marols stand up on their hind legs all at once. This reveals the appearance of Vandaloo, which was under Marol's belly.

"The answer was under the red rat Marol!-I'll give you a strawberry to hit the kid!

Apparently, it's a quiz rather than a bet ... which rat is underlining Vandalu.

A little girl with pretty clothes ... No, a dwarf woman hands out strawberries from baskets to children.

Sandy was in a location far from the stalls, so she was surprised and looked into the stalls .... It was Yuliana, about the same stature as Vandaloo, who was grilling the skewers.

"I wonder if Juliana was baked."

"Yes! I must do my best too!"

"Okay, I'll do my best, because my aunt also supports me ...

Sandy, as she was helping her, Juliana, turned her back and asked Darussia.

"I understand why, but are you okay? If you don't open the stalls separately, people will be interested because you're interested in you?

And if you go to a nearby magical area or dungeon, don't you earn enough? "

There is no reason to deny Sandy's words. In fact, Simon and Natania take Arthur and the Fang and hunt and gather at the Maju at the request of the adventurer's guild.

And if you go with Dalsia or Vandalu alone, you can expect to get enough to cover your stay.

"That's right ... I'm not an adventurer now and I like working like this."

With Darusia saying, Sandy smiled with a grin and now stepped down.

"I can't say anything, because there's a lot of work in the world, but it's best to earn in whatever way you want."

Darius smiles and nods to Sandy, who is convinced of that, but in fact she felt a little guilty because she was lying.

"But be careful, because some of you come to us with a strange excuse that you don't like running a food stall despite being an honorable nobleman.

Such a person is-"

"Weird accusations are what they call accusations."

Sandy's voice, trying to advise Darussia, was interrupted by a arrogant man from behind her.

Reflecting on his reflection, Sandy jumps out of the way as a scary man, standing behind him with two knights of escort, apparently a noble man.

"Well, amazing."

Darussia was inadvertently surprised at all that Sandy's simplicity, the advice she offered, and that the youth looked like a sample of "a disgusting noble who came to blame" Sigh.

It is unknown how he interpreted it, but the young man snorted himself and bowed politely toward Darussia.

"The first time I see you, the Countess of Honor of the Lady of Darussia Zaccato. I am Viscount Piscot Aurumb."

"Thank you for your kind greetings, so have you decided on your order?"

Darussia, on the other hand, cheerfully tried to take the order accordingly.

The response of Piscott and the escort knights stiffens in response to a response that can not be seen at all.

"Don't make fun of it! Do you think that crude food, like that sold at a food stall, will fit my mouth, the head of the Viscount Aurumbu?"

"Well, that's a shame, so I'm sorry to have to get another customer's order."

Yes, he bowed to Piscot a little and tried to leave Sandy, who had been unable to move, but Darussia was standing in front of them by knights.

"I'm rude to Piscot!"

"Where are you going!"

He did not pull out his sword, but Sandy trembled at the intimidation of an armed knight, and Darcia sighed deeply. Then, as soon as she becomes a little serious, she turns her gaze to the master of the knights who can make meat.

"Do you still need something? Or did you place your order?"

"Are you stupid about me?"

"No, I'm going to do the right thing as a stand seller."

Darussia did not intend to make Piscot a fool. But now she's a so-called waitress at a skewered stall. If Piscott is not a customer and does not place an order, there is no more reason to respond.

She would have been doing other things if she had been here as a noble at some ballroom. Or, Piscott could tell Darussia first, but ...

"Hey, I'm still stupid! I wonder if I'm proud of getting an honorary aristocracy and joining our nobility !?"

"No, I'm not going to do that ... well, what's the matter?"

However, Darussia urged Piscott to dismiss the matter.

For her, there's nothing interesting about making a picott ridiculous. It's honest to say that you want to leave as soon as possible, as both the master and the servant loudly scare other customers and hinder your work.

"Nu, okay. I came here to note that it is the true aristocracy's duty that you, who gained the honorary aristocracy, be our nobleman and guide you so as not to be in trouble. It was! "

"……Oh dear"

Darussia was amazed that there was a nobleman who came to me as a truly honorable aristocrat, and didn't like being a stall seller.

However, Piscot misunderstood that Darussia had sensed what he wanted to say.

"Huh, you've finally understood how you're degrading as a noble. If you know, fold up the stalls that don't go down.

I'm the Viscount Aurumbu and I'll be responsible and teach you the behavior appropriate for a nobleman. ''

He is proud to try to put his hand on Darussia's shoulder. At that moment, ghosts of spatial attributes shake the space behind Orlamb, Braga lurking in an unpopular alley pulls out a dagger, and the muses implicitly obstruct the eyes of customers and children.

"I don't think you're right for that role?"

But before that, Viscount Aurumbu stopped with a cold woman's voice.

"What are you? Who is this dirty me who is this me?"

Piscott turned his eyes on the voice, mainly with frustration, and saw his dwarf woman dressed in pretty clothes with colorful decorations, and rounded her eyes.

"Set, 'The Knight of the Thousand Blades' Countess Valdilia Redgouda !?"

Yes, the dwarf woman who was the assistant to the quiz was Valdilia, dressed in armor and wearing pretty clothes. Piscott hurriedly corrects his posture, and the escort knights hurriedly imitate the master.

The arrogance begins to fall from the face of Piscott, in front of Valdilia, a dignified aristocrat who is older and more dignified than himself, and in front of the Duke.

"Why, why in this place?"

"As you can see, he was helping Darussia-sama, a great beneficiary.

"Well, how do you look like that?"

"Hey. Like that. You seem to have a strong commitment to the dignity of the aristocrat ... even if I'm defiled?"

Piscott stared at Baldilia in a colorful, fluffy and cute one-piece dress of bright pink and light blue, leaning back as she was pushed by the cold anger she radiates, with the force of splashing cold sweat floating on her forehead. I shook my head.

"Okay, let me tell you why you are not worthy of Darussia's leader.

Primarily! It is a serious violation of manners to visit an aristocratic lord of unknown personalities, even during wartime! Send an messenger in advance and take an appointment!

Secondly! Why do you threaten the head of another house and do not scold the standing knight! ? It is said that you know the degree of the master!

And finally, out of language, such as trying to get familiar with your wife! Come back again, youthful! "

"Hi, hey !?, I'm sorry!"

In response to Valdilia's scream, Piscot apologized with a screaming voice and ran away. The knights follow in a hurry, "Piscot-sama!"

"Good luck, Valdilia!"

"Yes, demon instructor!"

Valdilia, who dismissed the aristocratic nobles, was generously praised by Onijima. And once they get away from the stalls, they return and start eating again.

"One of the nobles who served my Duchess showed me embarrassing, Mr. Darussia."

"No, I was saved thanks to Valdilia. By the way ..."

"Yes, he seems to have approached Darussa-sama because of his bad intentions. Honorary nobles are only one generation, and there are dukes in any lord who think they are below them. Would have tried to use the beauty and fame of Darussia-sama. ''

What Baldilia said was common in aristocratic societies. No matter how high the honorary aristocrat's rank is, many aristocrats consider themselves who have succeeded for generations to be superior.

It is not interesting for aristocrats who have served their ancestors to treat suddenly appearing honorary nobles as equal to themselves. In fact, the nobles who ruled the territory for generations and held various positions contributed to the country. Furthermore, it is not a complete mistake, since political influences and connections are often more common than honorary nobles.

Nevertheless, it was too much to directly insult the honorary Earl Darussia, claiming to be a true nobleman.

"No, not me, can't I just call it Darcia?

"Huh, is it true !? But it's such a sudden resignation ...!"

Darussa leans on her head, saying, "What's going on?"

Sandy laughed, saying, "I'm completely cold and you're back after hearing your exchanges."

"Jaa, Izunozuki Kisimayo ... Bugullu"

The one in the shape of Vandalu, who was looking at it, said so and returned to work.

At that time, the real Vandalou, who deceived the eyes of the gods, stopped writing replies to Selenium and turned up.

From the deck of the ghost ship Quattro, a shadow came far in the distance. He acknowledges it and nods with satisfaction.

`` The continent of the Demon King, discovery ''
