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 97: Former Demon King, Quiet the Cemetery
─ ─ Huge Dungeon 'Elusion' Tier 4 ─
We went down the stairs and opened the door to the fourth level.
As the dossier showed, there was a misty space beyond the door.
The ground is moist, with short grass lengths and moss.
Beyond that are countless grave markers.
It's made of stone slabs, about half my height.
There are letters on the surface. Is it someone's name? Almost disappearing though.
Although some of these may depict 'ancient magic' - the investigation must be a long way ahead.
"... Yuki. The Ghost is here."
"... I've never seen so many undead, either"
Behind me, Odette and Gisele snapped.
Odette wears the 'Sorcery Guild' uniform as usual. The difference is that you wear a lot of accessories. Barletta for hair. Circlets on the forehead. Pendant on chest. Plus I have amulets wrapped around my arms.
All the 'Grail Chamber of Commerce' Rhodelia prepared me in a great hurry.
Though not a magic weapon, it would have been hard to collect this much. I have to thank you.
"Later...... I'm going to thank you straight from the Duke Slay house. Without your support, Rhodelia, we might not have been able to move forward."
"Yes, Rhodelia, you are competent."
Gisele wears lightweight armor with a shorter spear on one hand and a shield on the other.
This is what Rhodelia has prepared for us.
"Did Flora-Zamel disappear a few minutes from the entrance? But... after that, she's headed west."
"That's because of the" Replica Road "rampage."
"The Flora party guys, we chased them all the way down, but there's too much ghost to give up."
I saw a cemetery spread across the door.
The number of ghosts floating fluffy in the air is more than twenty, even if they are just visible.
If you shoot "Ancient Sorcery," they'll come all the way. The Ghost is obnoxious because it takes away a person's temperature and vitality. So Flora's people gave up chasing her.
"First, I'll make way."
I gave Odette the materials.
"If we don't reduce the number of ghosts, there's nothing we can do. Well, I'll try."
"I get it. If anything happens, me and Giselle will be there for you."
Odette held my hand and nodded.
"But promise me you won't be able to. If anything happens to Yuki, Iris and Martha will resent him."
"Odette, have you ever met Martha?"
"It's about the point of greeting you, but I just know that Mr. Martha cares about Yuki. Here."
Odette let him turn his uniform jacket.
At the lining, there is an emblem that follows the bat and the holy sword.
"It's a Yuki emblem designed by Martha. If you look at this, you'll see how much he thinks about Yuki. I don't know if that feeling... is the same as His Highness Iris"
"I know. I'm going to pay Martha back."
I nodded back to Odette.
"I won't force it. Odette and Giselle will help you if you have to."
"Copy that. Giselle should be able to jump out at any time."
"Yes. Odette!"
Gisele put up a shield.
I did just a little work on her shield and then jumped out to the fourth tier.
─ ─ ─ ─
"Ooh?
"Ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh?
The Ghosts noticed me.
The look on their faces -- nothing more.
There's a hole in the eye, and there's just a three-day moon-shaped rift in the mouth.
Pretty old ghosts.
I guess I don't have any more memories of where I was alive. I'm sure.
"I guess I should turn it off."
If they were like Dead Spirit Priests in "Sanctuary Church," I'd be trying to get rid of them after Bocco.
If they're just wandering, they should quietly turn them off.
I look around. Find an open place.
There is a passage in a large cemetery. It would be for carrying the coffin.
Further ahead, there was a circular square. I'll run out that way.
That's how he ran the operation to put the Ghosts together and erase them.
─ ─ The ghosts on the fourth level underground ─
They were the dead of old times.
I don't remember the times I lived anymore.
All I have is a remnant of my heart into this world.
They think.
We had great technology in our hands.
With that one, we should have been able to build a great civilization.
But I used it the wrong way.
A great war once waged, involving many countries.
Without it, we could have done more amazing things ourselves.
I want to start over.
Again, I want to try something different.
─ ─ ─ ─ Kodaino...... item ga...... areva.
─ ─ ─ Kodaino...... Majutuga...... Areva.
Again, again.
Crushing that, the Ghosts wander underground.
-Oh?
Unexpectedly, the whole ghost looked at the ground.
In the catacombs square, a boy stands.
I use Ancient Sorcery. I'm taking something out of the space.
─ ─ ─ ─ Ooooooooooooooooooooooo!!
─ ─ ─ Ancient no... majutsu ─!!
─ ─ ─ ─ To Varela, again Varelaniiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiii!!
The Ghosts reacted to the signs of 'ancient sorcery'.
At the same time, they fly towards the boy on the ground.
─ ─ ─ ─ Hoshi. "Ancient Sorcery" Ooooooo!
─ ─ ─ Solega areva, again ― Moo again ―
─ ─ ─ Varela takes the central deata era of the world. ─ Fluttershy......
You noticed the sign of Ghost, the boy looks up.
"... I don't know what it feels like to be here for over a hundred years. Don't worry about it."
The boy was a knife and scratched his hand.
Shake your arms and sprinkle the bloodbath all around you.
At that moment - the Ghosts stopped moving.
You mustn't touch that blood.
That has purifying power.
If I touch that... the Wallera is really over.
As if it were an invisible wall too, Ghost can't get close to the boy.
In the meantime, he takes the wand out of space.
Two silver canes - from which there is also the smell of 'ancient sorcery'.
But the Ghosts don't move.
His blood is horrible.
What makes the undead so afraid?
"--Masaka --Vampire King (Vampire-Road) --Ka, Demon King (Maow) --Ka"
"Do you still say that? I'm gonna get mad."
The boy took the sword out of the space and put it up.
The glowing silver sword - no doubt - is the holy sword of the 'Antiquities'.
------------------------------------------------------!
-The treasure! Artifact! Ancient Noooooooo!!
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
The moment I see the Holy Sword, the Ghosts scream out.
Fear of purifying blood also vanished. All they could see was a glowing holy sword.
And so dozens of ghosts arrived at the boy and...
─ ─ The boy raised his hand with a red crest over his head.
"It would be enough if it was this dense. Activate - Flaming God Bullet (Yfried Blow)"
Doddle, doddle, doddle, doddle!!
─ ─ ─ Geaaaaaaaaaaaaa!!
─ ─ ─ ─ AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA!!
Flamethrows fired from the boy's hands sweep away the Ghosts.
The Ghosts escape. Take a distance from the boy.
But...
Fluffy, and two floating canes hung Ghost's whereabouts.
On the surface of the scepter is a crest drawn with blood, which has purifying power.
Unexpectedly, the Ghosts stop moving. There...
"Activated," Red Lotus Star Bullet (Burning Meteo) ""
Along with the boy's voice, a giant sphere of flame occurs.
And a few ghosts were swallowed up.
Though spiritual bodies, magic makes sense.
Moreover, this sorcery is produced by blood with the power of purification.
─ ─ ─ ─ Ahhh……….
─ ─ ─ Wallerano time ga ─ ─ Final wal.
─ ─ ─ Moo once... ancient magic. ─.
The Ghosts couldn't stand it.
Those who have been bewitched by the boy, swallowed by the flaming sphere emitted by the wand, and who have been lucky enough to follow the boy, are also slashed by the holy sword and disappear.
"... who is conscious... are you not there"
said the boy.
"I thought the priest of the Church of the Sanctuary was leading you as a superior ghost."
The Ghosts responded to the voice.
Together, they point to the west.
-The Temple.
─ ─ ─ Soconi ─ ─.
─ ─ ─ The thing that planted the remainder of my heart in Varela is ─ ─ Soconi.
"Oh well. Thanks."
The boy's "Ancient Magic" was interrupted.
"Your work is done. Sleep in peace."
That's how the boy snapped 'purified' and erased the ghost in front of him.
After the last of them disappeared, the surroundings turned into just a quiet cemetery (Graveyard).
