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~

─ By that time, at the entrance to the cave...

After Yuki and the others caved in, General Barnes and the sorcerer DeMetel waited outside.

This is the upper level of the underground site 'Elusion'.

In front of you is a rock wall, where a cave of holy swords opens its big mouth.

"Erución" is a huge ruin that continues deep underground.

Only the upper layers are figured out. I don't know what's in the lower level. It is said that once the 'Church of the Sanctuary' fled deep underground, but they ended up, apparently, wiped out.

"In the end, I guess it'll take a few hundred more years for this place to be completely figured out"

General Barnes blurted.

He is an acquaintance of Princess Iris' mother. On that edge, I sometimes help with my 'magic guild' relationship work.

This is one of them.

"The vast dungeon 'Elusion'. Passages follow along the rock walls, with countless caves on the walls. That's just the upper level, too, and I don't even know what's going on with the lower level. I wonder why I made this stuff up when I was a magical civilization of the past"

"Quiet. Exam in progress. Master Barnes."

"Excuse me, I'm bored."

The old man ascended to the rock wall and yawned.

"Do you know, Lord DeMetel? Elusion has the ghost of a dead Sanctuary Church priest here."

"I know. It's just a fact. It is"

The magician DeMetel knocked on the aisle wall.

"Either way, they don't come to the top. There's a talisman in the aisle. Unless it's a summons, they won't come up deep underground."

"Then why did the undead come out in the cave of the Holy Sword?

"… is currently under investigation"

"I guess it's really okay"

"The passage talisman was confirmed yesterday by the officer in charge. No problem."

"What is the certainty that the undead of the Cave of the Holy Sword are low-level?

"That's for sure. I released the demon and confirmed it."

"You can't guess. There are examples of Kahle-Meegen who was an admirer of the Church of the Sanctuary."

Unexpectedly, General Barnes took the axe he had left standing on the wall.

"Besides, this place was an old battlefield. Quite a few of the dead also came out. It's not strange to have someone who's lost."

"... what. This fog."

The sorcerer DeMetel looked around.

The shallowest area of the giant dungeon 'Elusion', its passage.

There, the fog stood up loudly.

"... it looks like we're going to have to take the test too."

"... please refrain from light-hearted talk. General."

In the fog, I saw a shadowy man.

When I try to focus, I shake, and the shadow...

"... that it's ghost in the aisle!? No way. The exorcism talisman said the officer in charge checked yesterday......!?

"So I would have said. You have to guess!

What emerged from beyond the fog were dozens of ghosts.

Ghost is the ghosts who left untrained in the world.

He gets cold air just by being touched, and if he is possessed, he takes his spirit with him.

Besides, he was a nasty opponent, who could only get through witchcraft and witchcrafted weapons.

"Maybe the top undead showed up. Someone powerful enough to disable the talisman."

"Incredible. There's got to be something like that..."

"They say the 'Sanctuary Church' was in contention with each other in this land. Bye, no wonder the Ghost is out!!

General Barnes wields a long-pattern axe.

Barnes is a warrior. The weapons used are witchcrafted.

The ghosts drifting around are torn apart and erased like thin paper.

Meanwhile, the sorcerer DeMetel chants' Ancient Sorcery '.

"Leave, ghost! Activate!!" Ts of the Underworld "!!

My fingers painted a crest in the air and the magic of the earth was activated.

Shit, and the perimeter swayed.

From the ground in the underground passage, an Ibarra made of magic appears, intertwining the Ghosts.

They are pierced, torn, misty and disappear.

"At the end of the Eight Kings War, the Soul Festival was held. Why show up now!!

'... the activation is... slow... A magician. "

The ghost about to disappear snapped.

"... if our Lord, the Seventh Priest, is... more"

"... 7th Priest...?

In front of the crushing DeMetel, the Ghost vanished.

General Barnes breathes "Phew" and relief.

"I'm not good with ghosts. I don't know if it's working or not because I'm not responding."

"I don't think you're a war general."

"Are all the trainees safe? They're sending in demons, aren't they?

"... confirmed. Yuki-Grossalia and Odette Slay are on the move. Huh... too soon! Already near the back of the cave...!? Without even engaging the undead? How!?

"Let's not get off the hook. That's what the boy does."

"He also activated 'Ancient Magic' too quickly. A skilled magician would know that speed... I didn't know you had that much power if you were a trainee..."

"What's going on with the other team?

"They seem to have chosen a less undead path. As for myself, I like this one better. Rather than being impotent... no... what!?

The sorcerer DeMetel closed his eyes and synchronized his spirit with the demon of use.

Her use demons are rats made of witchcraft. Quickly, on top of being able to get in anywhere, small enough to be hard on people. Ideal for exam supervisors.

DeMetel closes the vision of the flesh and switches to the vision of the user demon.

I see two trainees running hard. It's Zilvan-Keels and Gaiel-Wolfgang. Taller would be Zilvan, lower would be Guyel. Something seems to be arguing. I hear screams. Gaiel-Wolfgang is screaming back. And...

There was a sound, and the user demon rat died.

"--- Damn!?

"What's up, DeMetel?"

"... my demon has been killed"

"To the undead?

"I won't snag like that. Magically enhanced rats to the extent of skeletons and ghosts…"

The sorcerer DeMetel shakes his head and stands up.

I had a bad feeling.

"We cave in, too. I don't know if something's wrong."

"Answer me! My princess will be saddened if there are casualties in the exam!

The sorcerer DeMetel and General Barnes jumped into a cave with a holy sword.

─ ─ A few minutes ago, Marquis Rest Jilvan and Count Rest Gayer were...

"... too fast. To the bastard of the baron's house. What the fuck is that guy!!

Zilvan-Keirth exclaimed.

This is the Cave of the Holy Sword.

They were going all the way down the far road with less undead.

"Damn...... I was short on information. I can't believe there's such a person in the Baron's house."

"I was slipping between skeletons and ghosts...... I can't do such a horrible thing. Incredible......"

"What makes such impotence go by forever"

"... right"

"Oh. One of these days the undead have decided to catch me and stop me. We took safety precautions. We won."

"Mr. Zilvan."

"What's going on? Guyel."

"Why didn't you allow me to hit Yuki-Grossalia with magic and make her inactive?

"Is that what your father suggested?"

"Yes, my disqualification and Yuki-Grossalia's inability to restart will make me a one-horse hit between Master Zilvan and Odet-Sray. Zilvan would have won enough."

"What can you do differently?"

Zilvan-Keels slapped Guyel-Wolfgang on the shoulder.

"My purpose is to be the knight of Her Royal Highness the Princess and to enhance the name of the Marquis. It doesn't make sense if I dispose of you and buy His Highness's unhappiness."

"... That's splendid. If you're from the Keirth Marquis,"

"That's what I'm educated for. If you look down on someone else, be honest."

"The Wolfgang family doesn't have... that way of thinking"

Guyel-Wolfgang sighed.

"We are a 'Necromancer' - a family that specializes in the magic of manipulating the dead..."

"You never feel a draw. Besides, that's why you're so helpful."

"... Mr. Zilvan"

"Please. Guyel."

Zilvan-Keirth turned to Gayer and told him.

"With your magic, lead me to victory!

"Okay. Launch my Ancient Magic."

"It's like our victory was decided when the test venue was this place."

"Yes, Marquis Keelus turned his hand around the back and checked the exam venue in advance."

"I'm on guard. Do it."

"... Yes"

Gaiel-Wolfgang stopped and began chanting spells.

Zilvan-Keirth laughs damned while watching it.

This is a triumph in the intelligence war.

A battle is one in which the battle begins in its preparation phase.

The Keelus Marquis family followed that lesson and did everything in their power to make Zilvan an escort knight.

Collecting information by acquiring a servant is one of them.

Before being briefed by Princess Iris, Zilvan knew where the exam was.

There is also a lot of low-level undead here.

"... I have been taught the 'ancient magic' worthy of this occasion by an acquaintance of my father. The most expensive, which should be used in this giant dungeon 'Elusion' … that's why."

"Oh. Then manipulate the undead with that power!

"……… I understand, I did"

Gaiel-Wolfgang begins to paint a crest on the universe.

Many use the undead.

"Vampires," "The Immortal King," and "Mages are one of them."

High-ranking mages can manipulate hundreds of undead like hands and feet.

So the Keelus Marquis family laid eyes on the Wolfgang family, who inherited the magic of the 'Necromancer'. Especially his eldest son, Gaiel, is young but talented.

It's as simple as pointing an undead around to a rival on another path.

"He's the one I can count on. Gaiel-Wolfgang. Sooner or later, when I'm minister or prime minister, I'll keep you close."

Zilvan-Keels nodded satisfactorily.

Guyel is finishing his chant and trying to activate 'Ancient Magic'.

"Dead, hear my voice! Accept my will, fight the enemy!!

I heard a noise.

Skeleton and Ghost, who were wandering around Zilvan and Gayer, run out for another road.

"Success. You did it, Guy!

─ ─ ─ ─

"Now Yuki-Grossalia and Odette Slay will be unable to move. It's our victory. Come on, we're on our way to the goal. Guyel......!?

Zilvan's voice broke.

Because Gaiel-Wolfgang, who was in front of him, suddenly grabbed his neck with both hands.

"... ugh!? Gail..."

"Who woke me up?"

I heard a voice.

It's not Guy's, there's a chilled out voice.

"............... Who opened the door to the raw world Heno Ka"

"Oh man... what... what...?

Seventh Priest of the Church of the Sanctuary, Rogluel.

─ ─ ─ ─

The moment the word was heard, it was filled with more and more black magic from the body of Gaiel-Wolfgang.

Skeletons tremble with bees and bones.

The Ghosts dance the universe and try to escape simultaneously.

Some little animal gets slapped against the wall, beh, and crumbles.

(………………… today, I)

Zilvan opened her eyes to fear.

The Church of the Sanctuary - it is a taboo for those who use witchcraft.

If you are familiar with history, you know. There was also someone who destroyed himself at the end of the investigation in this' Elusion '. The fact that it's wandering down the lower level of Elusion...

(... No way... Guy's technique has brought this guy here...)

The fellow in front of me looks at Zilvan with a look he doesn't think of as a human being.

If it is the ghost of the 'Sanctuary Church', it is not already a ghost.

It is also a superior species of Reis, Specter, or Rich.

If a low-level sorcerer tries to use it - it will take over the spirit the other way.

"...............................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................

"Hih!?

From Geyer's finger comes a whimpering cold air.

The moment he felt it, Zilvan-Keirus let go of consciousness.

'... what we have found over the course of our lives... in this hand...'

Ghost, who named himself a priest, snapped in a whisper.

And the man walked out toward the back of the cave, possessed by Gaiel-Wolfgang.
