The Death Mage Who Doesn’t Want a Fourth Time

Episode 291: Cannibals and Cannibals After the War

I haven't counted how many temporary deaths I've experienced since then. If you cut one step deeper, if you move faster. Such failure was repeated many times.

That's not to say that the Fallen Hero Zackart, the ancestor of the vampires, the Beast God Ganpaprio, the Giant God Zeno, and the Dragon Emperor Marduk, who fought fiercely against the Demon King, were not at a strong level.

And he has never won the Demon King Gudulanis.

"This is still four layers ... If you include Gudlanis, there are five layers left, so it's far away."

Heinz, the leader of The Five Colored Blades, sighed in an uninhabited city after the disappearance of the original custodian, God of Records, Kuratos.

"No, it's a very fast pace. I was worried by God that I might not be able to capture it, but I'm only five layers left."

One of the avant-garde of "Goshiki no Blade", martial artist Jennifer has put his leader in so doing.

Although the destruction of Curatus was averted, Colander's behavior was averted, but about one-third of the story in Arda's Trial Dungeon was destroyed by Vandaloo and rendered unusable.

Jennifer's "Five-colored blades" had only advanced to the middle class, but had to restart from a deeper place in the dungeon with only ten layers.

Its difficulty is high. Appearing as enemies are the great gods Marduk and Zeno, and the demon king Gudranis (first form). With the disappearance of Curathos, the behavior of copying became monotonous, and the Heinz and others repeatedly defeated and learned some patterns of behavior, but managed to defeat them. What kind of enemy came out in the remaining four layers, I don't want to think.

The difficulty of Alda, the god of fate, was also convinced.

Even though it is a virtual death, the pain and sensation are the same, so it is not surprising that the mentally broken.

"Yes. If you and Edgar weren't back, you might have given up."

The two, whose souls were hurt by Vanderlu, were particularly sick of Edgar's ability to fight again.

However, Heinz was able to return to Diana's religion, the Goddess of Sleep, Mill, and Edgar was much faster and more perfect than expected by the hands of an unnamed god.

"Yes, that's right. I was especially surprised by Edgar."

"I didn't expect to come back stronger and stronger than before."

But Edgar's growth was phenomenal. A sharp movement as if his soul and the transplanted hero Luke had switched, the skill was cut. It was as if she was always activating [Dawn]. The reason why Heinz and the others proceeded to the remaining five layers is that Edgar's ability to rapidly increase.

"That's true, but impossible is forbidden."

The Dwarf girl, Deraiza's shield, was stabbed with a nail.

"Edgar is still sick. I don't know what soul treatment is, but I have to be careful."

Edgar grew rapidly, but, as she said, suffered from a mysterious illness. Especially after prolonged fights, palpitations, shortness of breath, headaches and nausea become severe, and you cannot move.

Diana's healing magic had no effect, and the use of soothing magic to calm her mind was a little easier, so it was considered a mental problem.

"That's because of the trauma, wasn't it?"

Vandalu was scolded on the verge of breaking his soul, and Cyratos, in the shape of his former companion, Martina, was told that the soul would be dangerous in this state.

Jennifer argued that the experience might have been Edgar's trauma, but Diana shook her head.

"It's possible, but then my magic should be more effective. My god Mill is the" goddess of sleep "because it's a goddess that brings people peace and healing."

In this world, the spirit is interpreted as being closely related to life. Therefore, there is a technique to affect the mind in the life attribute.

Diana was asked by Edgar for those techniques, and she used them many times, but to a lesser extent.

"Of course, it may be my lack of power."

"No, Diana's magic is true. Again, it's not about the spirit but the soul."

Heinz nodded to Diana, who looked down. Edgar and Luke, the spirit of Niltark, the god of condemnation, seemed to be as compatible as possible to Descend, but transplanting a piece of Luke's soul would not have caused no side effects.

Usually think so. Hoping that Edgar can overcome the side effects, he's a leader who will support him as a companion.

(But, during the trial, Edgar's too strong killing ... what is the sign of Vandalu, but different?)

However, Heinz was suspicious of Edgar.

Despite it being a copy, a physical hallucination that emerged for trials, the battle is a real battle. It's ridiculous to kill, and Jennifer and Deliza, and Heinz himself.

But Edgar's killings on copies aren't just sharp and cold. Heinz felt as though he had a poisonous grudge.

And that sign that you will feel a little if the battle is prolonged.

"I don't know if I have an answer, but ask Arda. Diana, too, pray to Mill."

The gods are busy too. On the ground, the battle with Vandalu seems to be intensifying. I guess we can't get over to Heinz.

I think I had to ask the gods about my soul.

At that time, Edgar was an inn .. To be exact, he was alone in a room in a building that recreated an inn in a human town 100,000 years ago.

"Wow ... wow! What do you mean if you don't drink alcohol at all but get a hangover?"

The nausea does not go away for the headache, but it is in excellent condition from the neck down. In a battle, the headache and nausea disappear like a lie and you can fight with a refreshing mood.

[Condition Abnormality] Neither skills nor various potions have any effect. Diana's magic can only be relaxed. Only the battle had freed Edgar from this condition.

However, Edgar knew instinctively that he couldn't be addicted to the battle.

The more you fight, the hate your opponent will be. I understand that it is only a copy, and what appears as an enemy is a mythological resident who does not know him at all.

Despite that, Edgar notices that the copies of Ganpaprio, Marduk and Zeno are terrible. Especially when I first saw a copy of Gudranis, I was almost lost.

He felt so insulted that Edgar was unlikely in his entire life, and his hatred and consciousness was almost flooded.

Immediately after the onset of symptoms, I wondered whether the transplanted shards, Luke's memories and emotions had an effect. However, if you think about it, Luke was an active figure more than tens of thousands of years after Demon King Gudranis was defeated.

It is understandable that he hated Gudranis because he became a kin of God, but that hatred was too vigorous.

(What happened, what am I?) But I'm getting better and better, but my soul was shattered, but the fight was back to normal ... ?)

I remember learning when I was a child that jobs and skills were carved into my soul. I don't usually notice it, but my crushed soul may have some side effects.

However, Edgar felt that the side effects were weaker than at the beginning.

"I guess that's why Niltaks don't say anything about side effects. I don't have the time to rest and rehabilitate, so I have to endure until it's cured."

Then, I think that this is due to my weakness that was given by Vandaloo, and I have no choice but to endure. Yes, Edgar thought.

It is true that Arda has no time to rest Edgar for a long period of time, given that Vandalu has caused significant damage to the Guards of Peria and Bottine and led the hero candidates Edilia and Carlos.

However, the side effects were actually progressing rather than mitigating. And the Nirtaks did not know exactly the state of Edgar's soul, and, just like Edgar, thought, "Some side effects are occurring, but they seem to be gradually subsided."

The act of Rodcorte, which transplanted powder, a fine fragment of the soul of the Demon King Gudranis, deviated from common sense.

And the powder of the soul of the Demon King Gudranis was much more cunning than Rodcorte thought.

As Edgar was eroding, former hero candidate Carlos was drinking water at the bar counter.

With Simon and Natania instructed, he finally began to hear the voices of his peers. He stopped drinking and rehabilitated his dull body to reprove himself.

Today, he returned to the town of Moxie, challenging the Gareth Old Battlefield, a B-class dungeon that had just appeared a few months ago, defeating the first medium boss.

I realized that my level was hard to rise because of my blessing, but I was still moving forward slowly. While thinking that it is enough.

"Father, give me new water! Roasted beans!"

Yes, Carlos orders, but the bar tavern doesn't look at Carlos. He thought it would be okay because he ordered water at the bar, but he thought it would be good because he also ordered a knob, but he stopped complaining.

If you order it with a higher knob, it will be more amiable. That was the time I was asking for a platter of cheese.

"It looks good."

One day, Vandalu was sitting in the side seat. However, Carlos was not surprised for some reason.

"Oh, I can't believe it. I'm light, I feel good, I have an appetite."

"Is that because I just stopped drinking?"

"That's right! But thanks to you and your disciples. Thank you."

If Simon and Natania didn't tell you then. With that in mind, Carlos is terrified. I don't know when I was drunk or how far down.

I don't think I'm alone. However, it was none other than himself who had lost his blessing and was drunk.

They may have been fond of friends, quit the adventurer, and fall to the bandit bouncer.

With that in mind, Simon and Natania, and Vandaloo, who brought them together, are benefactors.

"I want to have a drink ... but I don't drink alcohol, right?"

"Yes, I'm stopped from my mom to adulthood."

"Yes, that's a shame! I could just say sweets in the daytime, but not this time."

When Carlos looked out, it was already dark. Carlos entered the tavern and started having a light dinner after returning from the dungeon, so it seemed that time had passed by some time.

It's summer now, and the sun should set late.

"So I'll give you a cup instead"

"Hey, why are you ......... yo ..."

Carlos, who thought that the words of Vandaloo were a joke, laughed away and returned his eyes ... a wine glass filled with a red liquid was laid for some time.

The father of the tavern turned his face away and was not even one step closer to Carlos.

"I'm bad.

Something is wrong. With that in mind, Carlos tried to keep the glass away from himself. However, the moment he grabbed the glass, the red liquid inside began to foam as if it had boiled.

"What ?! What is it?"

"Okay, it's not wine"

"No, you're saying that ... Uo !?"

A red liquid overflowed from the glass. At that time, Carlos noticed that the liquid was not foaming, but rather a fresh spring from the bottom of the glass.

"Oh, what's this?"

In front of Carlos' screaming eyes, the tavern's father melted down. Like a ripe and rotten fruit, the skin and clothes of the tavern's father are torn, and a red liquid overflows from inside.

I noticed that there was no Vandaloo and the bar was full of red liquid.

"Wow ah ah ah !?"

Carlos screamed and tried to escape, but was swallowed by a red liquid. He swims desperately and struggles to reach the surface, but his body is sinking.

Looking down with fear, I saw a huge black hole. And instinctively, he realized that was the exit.

(Well, I wasn't in the tavern, I wasn't sinking .... I was at the bottom of the hole from the beginning.)

Carlos is a red liquid ... Vandaloo sees it off and falls to the surface of the water.

"Wow ah ah ah !?"

I woke up shouting. Carlos, who fell from the bed of a luxury inn in the town of Morksey, stood up relieved to wake up from his dream.

"What was that dream?"

Is it a nightmare? I woke up screaming, so I think it was a nightmare. But Carlos did not think that dream was a bad dream.

I remember everything I saw in my dream, but not mystery and fear. On the other hand, I feel refreshed just after sweating comfortably in training. In addition, that liquid that came into your mouth when swallowed by the liquid is very-.

"Wow ah ah ah !?"

At that time, a shout was heard from the next room. At first, I thought it was a shouting to myself who was making noise from the morning. However, since the shouting had no meaning, I realized that the Lord of the voice had woke up in a dream just like myself.

"Certainly, the room on the right was saying that it was going to be B class soon. Did he stay at the rock of" Iwan Tedan "?"

Will dreams shift? While thinking about such a stupid thing, Carlos left the room to wash his face. I forgot about the faint, sweet taste that remained in my mouth at that time.

It was after eating a light breakfast that I noticed that my status was now marked as [■■■■■■].

[Cooking] skill level is up!

"I had a dream this morning to give Carlos and the rocks a 'full' drink."

One week after fighting the Peria Defense Corps. Vandalu was in the pseudo-shrine of Zanták, the “war god of fire and destruction” in the center of the Demon Continent ... making lunch for everyone near the giant white sphere, outdoors in the magma pond.

"Hoho. Is Carlos or Rock a promising young man?

"Is it a dream friend? But it's a name I've never seen here or in Tarosheim. ''

"I don't even remember, so it's not a human name?

"Carlos, rock ... I'm familiar. Al Krem, no, was it the town of Moxy?

And the people waiting for the result are thinking about the name that came out of Vandaloo's mouth.

By the way, what I'm making is a pasta made by adding "Gulland's mushrooms" to the cream of "Beast King of the Sea Chestnuts" Dorstero.

In the dismantled Dorster, there were testes as well as ovaries. Sea urchins are of different sexes and hermaphrodites, but Dorstero seems to have been hermaphroditic.

Gufadogan, who assumed that this was a female, was also surprised, but the quantity and quality of the ovaries and testes, as she said, were nourished at any time, rich in nutrient, and very delicious.

It was so tasty that Luciliano complained that Dorstero should be kept and life-dead. … Maybe he suggested to fill his schedule to prevent him from participating in the next camouflage.

Treasure, who has been ranked as a ghoul artisan princess, has expressed terrible enthusiasm, "Please take the next one by all means!" However, if you take her now, she seems to be unreasonable, so Vandaloo will look at it for a while.

According to Vandaloo, Dorstero's soul was also very tasty with a rich taste and a mellow texture like cream.

The pasta sauce I'm making is a dish that reproduces the taste of the soul and combines mushrooms frequently used in Garutland cuisine with dragons and bacon of a giant to further heighten the height. Commonly known as the sea urchin cream pasta.

Having prepared the sauce and boiling the pasta, Vandaloo answered Tiamat's questions.

"Now I'm an adventurer in the town of Moxy, in the Duke of Al Krems. Probably ... there's probably Carlos. I'm not sure about rock."

"Do you understand? Didn't you give the blessing the dream of drinking a lot?

Tandamat tilted his head and answered, without blinking.

"Yes. I don't give blessing because of the potential ... talent. It's not consciously given in the first place."

The eyes of Vandaluu are also quite opaque compared to warriors and sorcerers who have similar abilities, but it is not completely a hole.

But I didn't know if I was talented. For this reason, Vandalu helps and does not take into account the talents of the other when giving blessings.

It's not because of Simon or Natania's apprenticeship, or to picking up Fang, Mehne and Hof, because they've seen their talent.

However, Carlos only thought that he might have talent and qualities because Rubicante, the god of the heat, gave blessings.

"Hmm? So why are you giving blessing? You have the power to be blessed, but aren't you indiscriminately scattered?

You said you weren't consciously sprinkling, but if you feel it's a problem, you're going to try to control it in some way. '

As Talos's sister, Giant of the Moon, Diana, wondered, Vandaloo is not indiscriminately spreading blessings. He does not give blessing to those he knows, even if he is known.

So, there must be selection criteria ...

"Maybe I'm looking at my personality ... I wonder if I want to boost it."

However, Vandalu himself couldn't say anything because his senses were different from his dream self and when he was awake.

"Hmm ... Well, maybe that kind of thing would be fine. When you are a mentor, you are like blessing all who have led you. '

"Oh, I remembered. That guy? Rock is definitely a good guy. He is a little better than he is, but he has good qualities. You can raise good juniors.

Carlos ... I can't say anything from my standpoint. "

Fermaun Gord, a hero god who is a deity of the fire god and worshiped as the founder of the Adventurer's Guild, seems to have remembered Rock and Rock, a former hero candidate, Carlos.

Even though he has a small but deity statue on every adventurer's guild branch, he doesn't know every adventurer.

"Can't you say anything?

"Oh, I can't tell. Because I'm a pillar of the gods of the Ardas in human society. Rubikante is also considered my subordinate god. Well, I came to the Vida faction as a deity, so it is formally the same. "

In other words, Fermoun's poor coach has no face to match Carlos.

Of course, it's bad to say that he gives blessing to Carlos instead of Rubicante. If he, still a member of the Alda power in human society, gives blessing, Carlos will remain an Aldaist.

There is no guarantee that it will be transmitted correctly, even if you communicate it in the oracle. Like Rubikante failed to get Carlos closer to Vandalu.

"Speaking of which, is Farmaun indistinguishable from a hero candidate?"

"... It's difficult. When the hero candidate prays to me, he says, "I've got the blessing of another god recently,"

"Directly seeing" by Farmaun does not mean meeting the opponent in the sanctuary, but just saying that you can see the earth from the sanctuary. You don't need to be aware of the hero candidate.

However, when he returns to Bang Gaia, the Ardians notice his presence.

In the worst case, the battle between Fermaun and Arda in the sanctuary broke out, making it no longer a hero candidate.

"I see. It doesn't stay."

While saying so, Vandalu puts the boiled pasta on a plate and pours the sauce.

"I can do it!"

"Oh, this looks delicious!

"Oh, thanks for the ingredients ...

"... I think you're going to eat cannibals, right now?

"What's wrong with that?

Farmaun pointed out to Tiamat and Diana, who had shrunk to human size, and Fidirug, who was using five evil canes instead.

"[" [I'll have!

And gods who are crazy about eating pasta. Waiting for the four-poster meal to calm down to some extent, Vandaloo asked.

"... I was able to shrink."

"Um. It's not exactly shrinking, but a part of consciousness separated from the body and embodied. "

"It's useless for fighting, and giants like me can't be distinguished from others, so I'll do it in rare cases."

The gods, including the subgods, seem to be flexible in the sanctuary, but it is a pride for Vandaloo to use the flexibility to eat dorstel pasta.

While boiling the next pasta, Vandaloo asked Tiamat looking up at a huge white sphere ... the egg born between her and her.

"By the way, I've come up with the name of the first child ... but only one person is growing up in that egg, right?"

The legendary Tiamat, who laid eggs about 10 meters in diameter and 100 at a time, replied, "Yes."

"If you become a concubine, you can choose at times and occasions. In the past, many people were born at once because numbers were needed, but now they are different. I can't afford to have hundreds of them and be killed by raising children. "

Tiamat, who once created a dragon between Vida and a demon dragon or a demon dragon between a demon and a demon, before many times, a god who was a subgod or a child of a true giant many times It is born. In that case too, they were often twins or triplets, but they did not go far.

"I see. It seems that the nature changes depending on whether you have a child as a god or a person .... I was relieved because I thought only one name.

Oh, it moved. "

"It looks like you are growing up, Thou and Tiamat's son. It's still a long way to go, but a strong dragon will be born. ''

The contents, wrapped in soft shells warmed by geothermal heat, were wriggling, hoping to be born into the outside world.

From Ghoul Elder Artisan, Ghoul High Elder Artisan, and Ghoul Unlimited Artisan, Tale Miss who has somehow been ranked as Ghoul Artisan Princess. I would like to ask if Princess is the next after Unlimited (no limit).

After all, it may be because I got a job called [Utahime], which can be used by ghouls and ogre women who have [singing] skills.

I would like to support her enthusiasm for further ranking. …… I really wish that my wish would not be fulfilled. Once fulfilled, the teacher's attention turns to me and I'm taken to the battlefield.

She received the new blessing of Zelzeria, probably because she was a former prostitute. It seems that the goddess is often worshiped by prostitutes.
