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~
Episode 44: Former Demon King and Princess and Duke's Lady, Going to Exorcise Demons
─ ─ Yuki viewpoint ─
"That's why they postponed the orientation."
A few days after I met Iris.
Odette, who came to the quarters, told me that.
"Until we capture the culprit of the Summoning Bishop of the Necromancer, or until safety is confirmed, 'Erución' is off-limits."
"Can't you think about safety?"
"The mastermind of the incident...... Dorothea-Zamuels. You're a drifter magician."
"You're a user of 'Ancient Sorcery' who doesn't even know the guild..."
"That's nasty. Indeed."
"Right."
The purpose of a guy like Dorothea is unknown.
However, it is almost certain that he is an admirer of the Church of the Sanctuary.
Nor can it be compelled for the 'Magic Guild' to be vigilant.
... Damn.
Don't follow me until after I'm reincarnated... the guy called 'Church of the Sanctuary'.
I wouldn't have cried Lyle without those guys.
Alice was in pain and never reincarnated.
I was relieved to hear that you were doomed, but you still have the rest of the party.
Even if they perish, they'll come back to life, zombies or them. Is that Ghoul?
It's worse than the undead, isn't it? You've been calling me out all my life.
"... really already, those guys..."
"It's annoying, isn't it? The 'Church of the Sanctuary' is…"
"Oh. Totally."
"I have to be a Class C sorcerer sooner... than 'Elusion' remains sealed off..."
"Class C magician?
"Yeah, yeah. I'm going to be a C-level magician soon. I have a little situation. So, hurry up, Dungeon. I want to get into Elusion and achieve results."
"Speaking of which. If I catch a guy who says Dorothea or something, do I get a title?
"It's a top magician's job. It's none of our business."
"But if he was a survivor of The Sanctuary Church, he might have information no one else knows..."
"... you can think of that."
"" For example... "
Me and Odette looked at each other.
"Infiltrated the 'Sanctuary Church', or something about some village dweller?
"Like information about 'ancient magic' and 'ancient objects' that nobody knows about?
Two voices overlapped.
"... Yuki. What are you thinking?
"Nothing?"
"As I have said many times, the search for Dorothea is carried out by the top magicians of the 'Sorcery Guild'. There's no curtain for us trainees."
He said, "I know."
"Especially the four-man team known as the Quartet (Cartel), which includes B-Class Mage Cain, is also said to be at the top of the Alliance. They're going to move this time, too. It'll be cleaned up soon."
"By the way, do you have a prediction of where a guy like Dorothea is?
"No."
Odette spread parchment on the table.
Two. One of them is a sketch of Dorothea-Zamuels.
The other is a map around Wang Capital.
The streets, the woods, and the mountains.
"... or even preparing a sketch"
"Or it doesn't matter. I just got this by accident. You don't want me to capture him."
"... ok. That's what I'm gonna do."
Odette is serious.
You can't say 'Out of the Top Mage' in front of me.
But I want to catch Dorothea with this hand, if I can.
If he's the rest of the Sanctuary Church, he's got a bunch of complaints he wants to hear and bump into.
"So, where are the top magicians doing their research now?
I pointed to the map.
Odette nods and with his thin fingers shows the area around the king's capital.
"They are currently traveling around the villages near Wangdu. It's about listening and exploring if he's lurking. After that, it looks like we're going to be going through the woods, the old forts, and the mountains."
"We have a job, too, don't we?
"Guild trainees are supposed to crusade the neighborhood's demons under the guidance of instructors."
Odette pointed to the streets near King's Capital.
"I'm going to join you. What about Yuki?"
"I'm supposed to accompany Iris as his' escort knight '. That's what's coming from Iris."
"Iris is also a trainee in the Sorcery Guild."
"Then our job is to expose senior magicians."
Odette turns his eyes round to my words.
Looks like it was a picture star.
The senior magicians have to leave their strength behind to capture a guy named Dorothea.
Then the demons around the streets and villages will try to exorcise trainees and junior magicians.
Because the Sorcerers of the Alliance seem smart in many ways.
"... Yuki. Choose your words."
"Bad"
"Besides, participation is not compulsory. Iris was to participate because the 'Dorothea Exploration' was to take place at the Royal Proposal. As the royal representative, His Royal Highness Cain will be part of the expedition, and Iris will be part of the demon crusade."
"Well, isn't it bad to gain combat experience as a magician"
I'm not dissatisfied with exposing the top magicians.
Rather, he thinks it'll be a good experience.
I'm basically immortal, so in ten or twenty years, I won't be able to live in the human world.
In the meantime, as much as possible, experience as a human being… let's build on 'Human Experience'.
"... right. It's a good way to get experience."
"That's just great. I have to learn how to improve."
Odette strained his chest.
"Now that we can't get into Elusion, we need to get as much experience as possible."
"My job is to escort Iris. If you want to get rid of demons, turn to Odette's support."
"That's very helpful."
Me and Odette continued our demon crusade meeting.
That's why, for the first time, we got a job from the Sorcery Guild.
While the senior magicians were searching for the "Summoning of the Necromancer Bishop," me and Iris and Odette were supposed to work with the instructors to exorcise the demons in the streets.
