The Demon King Of The Frontier Life, Reincarnated To Become The Strongest Mage ~The Former Demon King Who Grows Up While Being Loved Wants To Know The Human~

──Golem's "Feira" story──

I'll talk to you about it.

I met my master, Meir-Carmine, here.

... yes.

I was an old golem who slept on this floor.

"That's what... you woke me up..."

He was very magical and clever.

That's how I became Master Meir's escort.

Because some people in the "Sanctuary Church" didn't like the wise man and his family.

It was my job to protect Meer from those people.

──Huh?

Were you happy here, Mr. Meer?

I don't know.

Golem, I don't know what human emotions are.

However, Mr. Meir was always talking to [Feira].

"I want to see the village where my father, mother── and sister were someday."

It's time to move on.

Because I don't know how long I can talk like this.

I will tell you about the day this place was closed down.

The day this fifth tier was closed.

The wise Lyle-Carmine and her companions took action.

The wise man sealed other [Ancient Artifacts] with the [Ancient Magic of Seal].

The people in the [Sanctuary Church] hid that there was such magic.

Moreover, the wise man was about to destroy the [Monster Giantization System].

But I failed to do so.

That's why the wise man and his people decided to seal this floor.

Immediately after that, knowing the actions of the wise men, the people of the "Sanctuary Church"──────

──Oh, my God.

The memory seems to be flying.

Sage,── the── life and death of the first priest──.

Exceeding life is not a── forbidden "king's ridge (──road)"──.

Those with── great wings that exceed the forbidden and── transcendent [royal horse (Lord)]──.

──I don't know.

Feira's memory is partially missing.

──Huh?

All you have to do is tell me what you know.

Thank you very much.

Lady Meir's associates── and superiors are very kind.

I'm happy to be your escort.

... we should continue the story of that day.

The wise men prepared to seal this fifth tier and escape.

It was you and your fellow golems who were behind it.

After going out to earth, the wise man, his wife, and their companions were supposed to hide.

Although they betrayed him, they were also named after the "Sanctuary Church".

I heard you were thinking of hiding out for your own safety.

The truth is, they── wanted to go back to their village.

But when I get back, I don't know what the "Sanctuary Church" people will do to the village.

And... for them, the "village" wasn't about the place.

The place where the important person── "Dean" is located is their village.──

I've heard that story many times.

That's why the wise men decided to live in hiding.

However, she wanted me to live in the sunshine.

There were wise men on earth who understood.

There was talk of relying on one of the chambers of commerce, but they decided not to get involved because it is an organization for loved ones. I didn't want to bother you.

The person who understood was an aristocrat from a certain region.

It looks like you've been sneaking in to get in touch with us.

Meer-sama said, "Koushakuke? It was to be taken over by related parties."

This is also what Meir-sama wanted.

I want to see what── this world will look like.

──I want to live without embarrassment where you and [Dean] come.

I want to prepare to welcome them── both.

That was Master Meir's wish.

That day, I and my escort golems fought desperately.

The wise men have made room for escape. Good luck with that.

But I was stabbed with my sword, and the mechanism inside was broken.──

This is how you woke me up.

This is the end of Golem's story about Feira.

Thank you for listening...... thank you. Ladies and gentlemen,

──Yuuki Perspective──

The story of "Ferra" is over.

It was an uncomfortable way to talk, but I understood the content.

That's the golem of "Ancient Artifacts."

"Alice's sister has been living here for a while..."

Could it have been like a hostage?

Lyle was recognized by the Church of the Sanctuary for killing me.

He became a brave man and eventually a wise man.

But there must have been people who admired that achievement and people who suspected Lyle.

Maybe that's why my daughter, Meer, lived here.

So, did Lyle pretend to be on the side of the [Sanctuary Church] and seal the [Ancient Artifact]?

In the end, I tried to leave the "Sanctuary Church" by sealing off this fifth hierarchy...

Don't do anything awesome. That guy.

Maybe it was for my daughter Meer.

It's too much for a child to live underground all the time.

So Lyle started a revolt── with his people,── probably from "Fiera Village".

Putting the plan to close this fifth tier into action, they fled to the ground.

That's when this golem protected Lyle's back. In that case, Golem's "Ferra" is also the benefactor of my children.

I'll take the time to repair it later.

... I wonder what kind of child Meer was.

Lyle and Remilia are drawing blood, so it would have been wise.

"I just wanted to see your face once..."

Then, after leaving "Elucion", Meer was deposited with "certain regional nobility".

It seemed that the opponent was the [Marquis's House].

Of course, the country was quite different then and now.

However, it is rare for a local nobleman's house to remain intact.

"Suppose Meer was deposited at the Marquis's house, which is still there..."

"Odette, can I ask you a question?"

“Yes, I somehow understand what Yuki is trying to say.”

Odette nodded with her hand on her chin.

"When I heard Golem's story, I remembered Iris's grandmother."

"Yeah. Iris' grandmother was very old."

“Yes, Iris was worried that she might have the same constitution.”

"Iris's grandmother got married when she was first seen by the Marquis. So you're saying he was a resident of the Marquis's domain? Otherwise, we won't have a chance to make contact."

It's natural to think that way, isn't it?

"Meir, Alice's sister, has been picked up by the Marquis after she left here. And Meir is taking over my [Magic Blood] via Alice. There is a good chance that this has made you physically immortal.──"

I was expecting something, but now I'm almost sure.

Meir, Alice's sister, is the ancestor of Iris.

"... after I died, Lyle and the others did a lot of work." It's just now. "

Lyle and the others left me and Alice in our reincarnation.

The sealed Holy Sword, Lienkar, was in the ancient castle.

The same is true of the message inscribed in this "Elysion".

Lyle and I left behind items and words so Alice and I could follow their trail.

Maybe it's to make sure we can live without problems when we're reborn.

I,── Dean Nosferatu, will never die again.

But...──

"I didn't have to do that much... Lyle." I forgot about me, and I'm glad you're happy. For what reason do you think I felt pain in my previous life... "

Yuki?

"I am the guardian god of the village." It was my job to protect the villagers. But... I didn't think that after I died, I'd let them take the trouble out of here. I don't know... where did I make a mistake? "

"Everyone loved you, I'm sure."

Odette laughed.

"You must have been the guardian goddess of the village, your father, and a really important person." That's why the villagers who knew you would be reincarnated wanted to leave you as good an environment as possible. There is no "sanctuary church," a kind world. "

"... but I know how it feels."

"I can understand their feelings, too." If I were a resident of "Feira Village", I would do the same. "

"I'm grateful." But that's what made me spend my childhood at the bottom of this land. Away from the village, the people in the [Sanctuary Church] are all around me──......

I suddenly crushed it.──

It's not too fussy. Inside Meir, there's Onee-chan and My Lord. ”

I heard a── voice.

It was Golem's [Feira] voice.

[Ferra], what was that?

It was Mr. Meer's stingy sting.

'Ferra,' he said.

When I was alone, Master Meir hugged me and said this.

"... I see."

Besides, Master Meir was a genius beyond my mother.

Golem's [Ferra] stretched his chest out like he was proud.

Master Meir was able to manipulate the "Knight of the Kings" even though it was incomplete. It was he who inspired us to solve the mystery of the seal system. Since I was secretly active, I don't think I had time to be sorry. "

"... what kind of education did Lyle and Remilia teach me?"

Someday, I'll have to visit Meir's grave.

Let's ask Iris to visit the Marquis's house where her grandmother was.

No one may remember 200 years ago, but there will be a communal cemetery.

So let's say, "Thanks to you, Alice and I are living in peace."

Well then, let's do our job.

I saw the golem's "Ferra".

"Ask [Feela]. Do you know how to break the [Magic Power Barrier] and where the [Monster Giantization System] is?"

I know. Both systems are close by. Are you going to show me?

"Oh, please."

I understand.

With the guidance of Golem's [Feira], we stepped into the fifth tier.

As the bats said, the fifth tier was the town.

There is a large street in the center, and houses are connected to it as if they were between them.

According to "Feira", there are also sewers and water supply facilities.

If we just bring in food from the upper floors, we'll be able to survive.

I wonder if that's how he lived in the basement for a long time. The ancient witchcraft civilization that created this facility.

I want you to be careful. Behind the fence is the entrance to the sixth basement level. ”

At the end of the main street, there was a fenced square.

Beyond the fence, there is a big hole.

When I looked in... I saw a faint light in the back. That was...──

[A barrier of magic power], right?

"It's the same one in the aisle."

"The passage to the sixth level... is just a hole." There's not even a staircase. "

"I have to fly. This is..."

What about Yuuki?

"I may be able to go... but I don't know if I can come back." There is not only a barrier in the aisle. It was possible that there were monsters hiding. I can't go alone. "

What about the people at the Sanctuary Church, Mr. Ferra?

Odette asks [Feira].

There was no reply.

Golem's "Ferra" looked at me,

May I answer that? Superiors

"Fine, treat Odette like I do."

I understand.

'Ferra' nodded.

I'll tell you what, no one has been to the sixth tier, as far as Fela knows.

I think so.

It's just that the wise man said that. "Ellusion" ends in the sixth hierarchy. "

'Ferra,' he said.

It seems to have been written in some material. However, officially, there is no one who has gone to the sixth level or returned. "

I think so.

I don't know how deep the hole in the sixth hierarchy is.

It looks like it's going all the way to the bottom of the earth.

But if there's an ancient magic secret or the most powerful ancient artifact ahead,── I don't feel like going anyway.

It wouldn't make sense if I didn't come back to the place where so many amazing things were hidden. It's terrible to starve to death with treasure in your arms. Besides, it's hard to die in my case. For a long time, I was alone at the bottom of the earth... just thinking about it makes me chill. Besides, Martha would be worried.

"...... Yuki"

I noticed that Odette was grabbing the hem of my robe.

"No, that's why I'm not going."

"Well, that's right." Even Yuuki is not that unscrupulous. "

If I were to go, I'd have no other choice.

On the contrary, if it weren't for that kind of situation, I would never jump into a longitudinal pit like this.

In my previous life, it was called "Vampire Lord." I'm not nocturnal.

The "monster giantization system" is located in the third layer of the central tower, Blocks 3-4.

[Ferra] pointed to the central tower and said so.

The "magic barrier" management station is the second floor of the same tower, blocks C1-14.

Is both in the central tower?

Besides, there seems to be a lot of messy rooms, right?

The central tower was the home of the Sanctuary Church.

Probably.

If you look at the layout of the town, you can see that the central tower is the easiest to access.

That's the best place to base yourself.

Isn't there a demonic beast or a defensive golem?

The sanctuary church took everything out when it escaped.

"To start a war?"

I don't know about that, but most of it was done to the ground.

Then, relying on the Ancient Artifact they brought out, the nations started a war.

But Lyle didn't activate the Ancient Artifact because it was sealed.

As a result, the Church of the Sanctuary was destroyed when it bought the wrath of the nations that participated in the war.

──It was supposed to be ruined.

I still can't see what the remnants of the "Sanctuary Church" are for.

Even if we get the "Monster Giantization System" and start a war again, they won't necessarily win. Now, "Ancient Magic" and "Ancient Artifacts" are also researched and replicas are made. There are many countermeasures.

However, the remnants of the [Sanctuary Church] are only aiming for this [Elucion].

What is the purpose of this?

What does the First Priest have in mind that they are── immortal?

... when I was walking with that in mind, I was at the central tower in no time.

In front of us, there are two doors.

It's not locked, or── it's already slightly open.

This place hasn't been used by anyone for about 200 years.

I'm really worried about the trap.──

"...... Yuki"

Suddenly, Odette took my hand.

"There's someone there." No... I don't know if he's alive... but his shoes. "

Shoes?

I looked inside from the door gap.

I saw the shoes.

Worn-out,── but leather shoes that were luxurious 200 years ago.

I put [Magic Blood] on my fingertips and touched the door.

I tried [Erosion (Hacking)],── but there was no magical reaction.

As it is, I will open the door.

And then, in front of me,──

"Shoes... robes, clothes?"

It looked like a luxury robe.

It is decorated with gold threads and there are jewels everywhere.

The same goes for clothes. On the chest is the insignia of the "Sanctuary Church". It is also decorated with gems.

It was hanging from the wall of the── entrance of the tower.

It's like decorating a person's cowardice.

"... there's a plate on my clothes." What's that? "

"There's a name engraved on it. First Priest… Nivaldo = Metecarius ?

The First Priest... that is, the boss of the 'Sanctuary Church'.

Indeed,── he must have become an immortal body in the [Ancient Artifact of Immortality]. The imperial princess said, "The first priest is substituting for the emperor," but either way, there is no doubt that he is in the empire.

I think the first priest is the culprit that binds the [Sanctuary Church].

But...──

I wonder why the first priest's robe is so bloody.

There are bloodstains on the robe hanging on the wall.

Moreover, there was a big hole around my chest.

Is it some kind of directing? In other words, it's a bad taste.

“I didn't want to show this to Lyle or Meer.”

I know how you feel.

"I don't feel any magic from this guy." It doesn't look like a trap. This... I think we should ask Prince Kyle and Old Zamel to look into it later. I don't have time, and honestly, I don't want to touch it. "

I agree with you.

"First, let's deal with the [Monster Giantization System] and [Magic Power Barrier]." "Ferra, please guide me."

Yes, sir. This way.──

We're going up the stairs built along the interior walls of the tower.

There is a blowout around the stairs.

Dick and his team of bats fly, but there are no ghosts or monsters to react to.

The only thing that bothers me is the robe of the First Priest, decorated in the central square.

"That robe... feels unpleasant."

This is a ruin.

It was 200 years ago that the Sanctuary Church was home to the Church, and now there is no one there.

This "Elucion" is no longer belonging to the "Sanctuary Church", and the rest of the party have not reached here yet.

Two hundred years ago, the "Church of the Sanctuary" completely failed.

The organization has perished, and the members of the time have not survived.

And yet, if only the First Priest survived,──

"I wonder what he's thinking about. He's alive."

In my previous life, I didn't want the villagers to die.

I was hoping you'd be immortal without one left.

That's why I tried my best to keep them healthy.

That was my selfishness.

I wish they were happy and alive.

I was their guardian god.

That's why.──

"You will never understand the First Priest who survived the death of all his men."

The First Priest Nivaldo-Metecarius?

... I don't want to see you.

I wonder if his "Immortal Ancient Artifact" will suddenly break down.

That way, the Sanctuary Church will be completely extinguished and we can live in peace.

"I know what you're thinking, Yuki."

From the bottom of the stairs, Odette looked up at me.

“When you look kind, it's when you think about the people in the village and… the people you care about. I'm sure that if the [Sanctuary Church] were completely extinguished, everyone would be relieved..."

"Wow, Odette."

"I understand." So let's get to work and get back to Iris. ”

That's right.

I reach out to Odette.

So Odette and I started climbing the stairs side by side.
