The Demon King Seems to Conquer the World

Episode 152: Dr. Etha's Room

The next day, I had one foot in front of the academy.

As you creep through the front door and climb several stairs, you will exit into the hallway where Dr. Etha's lecture preparation room is located.

Walking down the hallway to the end, he stood in front of the door.

Concon, and knocking,

"Yes, go ahead"

And a cool voice came back.

"Excuse me."

Katcha, and twisted the knob and opened the door, in front of a well-organized literature machine, Dr. Etha with glasses sat down.

As always, they use wooden chairs with no cushions.

Dr. Etha looked a little surprised when she looked at me.

"Mr. Yuri, you were home"

"Yes, thanks to you..."

"Oh, you have a wand. Did you get hurt?

Dr. Etha said, worried.

I'm not a crutch, I'm wearing a cane like the old man uses.

"Yeah. But it looks like a wound that will heal soon"

"Really...... good. Oh, please have a seat."

Dr. Etha, when she stood up, pointed lightly at the chair with her hands.

Walking up to the nearest chair, he reaches out.

I didn't have to, but I sat in a chair holding my hand and keeping my weight lightly.

"Thank you"

"No...... more than that, how was it? The journey."

Dr. Etha visited me when I sat in the chair and took a breather.

"Uh... hey, it was often not good"

"Really... that's right"

He looked a little rushed and mumbled for a moment.

"It's war. I heard something stupid. Excuse me."

"No."

"... contention, after all, doesn't leave pleasant memories. Win or lose... some of you don't"

Dr. Etha's mouth sounded kind of experiential.

"Has Dr. Etha had that experience too?

I felt like I didn't really want to talk about it because the souvenir stories from the trip were scattered yesterday.

I want to hear more about Dr. Etha.

Even people like Dr. Etha, who seem to be unrelated to strife, have still fought hard with people?

"Like the samurai, I've never taken a weapon and fought, but I was also a well-known arbiter in Vaticanus..."

Oh, you mean that.

"In order to show the correctness of the theory, it was necessary to win an argument, I also completed rhetoric... but even if I failed to say it, it was full of resentment, and you were just vain"

When I was younger, was he like arguing others quite violently?

Well, intelligence as a young man is something like that often, and that's how you work out your own philosophy.

So I'm not surprised, but some of me can't imagine such an Etha teacher.

I've seen Dr. Etha have an argument (debate), but it's like playing as part of a class, and I've never seen anyone seriously fight the argument, so it may well be inconceivable.

"But didn't some of the audience agree and become comrades?

Dr. Etha's theory is convincingly well-reasoned, supported either by evidence or research, and beautiful.

Compared to the rationale twisted by those idiots, there is about as much difference between a perfect wall painted by a professional left official and a plate wall full of gaps made by an amateur.

"Right. Most of them were young priests."

"When you get older, you start thinking about profits. From the contents of the idea, if you support it, how do you get it... or something"

Moving people's minds in honesty is directly linked to power is a story in a democratic country where freedom of speech is guaranteed.

Naturally, the pope's people are not resistant to oppression.

Young people are powerless, even if they are willing.

Even if you are good at talking out loud about your ideals, you are not able to create a sensible organization that allows you to fight an investigative organizing opponent who will not suffer from torture or wrongdoing.

Also, with the people on your side, what a theological controversy for the people is a story on the clouds.

It does not motivate the people to take weapons.

Unless you're a talented fanning genius, but Dr. Etha isn't the type to think about it.

"You're right. I wish I had been a shard of Yuri's wisdom when I was your age."

Something praised me.

"No, no, what are you going to say"

"No, this is really true. At the time I was... well, from now on, I was a lot of a fool. He had a strong temper."

You mean it was a mess?

But if you were just an idiot screaming heresy, you wouldn't be treated like a heretic special for breaking.

Kill him very normally, or if he can't, banish him and it should be over.

Sure, if you capture Dr. Etha and follow him, will you consecrate him?

I guess I did something outrageous because the Catholic sacrament is not something you would do if you paid for it, and even a pope may not be listed as a post-mortem saint.

Like the Church's presence would be more denied if it did not deny its existence in its entirety.

Such things are not just something a fool can do.

Without something that moves people's minds, it won't be a commotion where fire burns.

"I still have some regrets. If I hadn't been in such a hurry and worked a little bit in the tunnel, I would have stacked small things to make it important by now."

That's what Dr. Etha said, and after a little silence about the worries,

"You're untrained."

And I said pompous.

What a sense of ready-to-see on that face.

Oh, it's Grandpa. Similar to my grandfather's occasional face.

Speaking of which, you have a bit of a resemblance in character and atmosphere.

I wonder why I hadn't noticed it before.

"Oh, yeah, you were talking about Mr. Yuri's journey. Why are you talking about me..."

Dr. Etha said that in a hurry.

"No, it was interesting. Yeah, we talked about the trip, a lot of things weren't good, but some things were interesting."

This place should be turned into a bright topic.

It's getting kind of dark, and Dr. Etha doesn't seem to want to remember much about the old days.

"Really? I guess so, what happened?

"I saw a dragon."

"What!?

Dr. Etha looked just as surprised.

Surprised Dr. Etha is quite rare.

"The dragon was flying to the battlefield. That was a sight to behold."

"Is it a dragon? Ha... I see... how well, are you a dragon to the Crusaders"

Seems kind of frightened.

Is it thoughtful of the enormous effort of the people who have deliberately carried it?

"Churchwise, there were still times when we were enemies, and it shouldn't be very nice to bring them with us to the Crusades,"

That's right.

Speaking of using dragons, the most famous is the Qur 'an Dragon Empire, which had a great quarrel with the Xulxes Divine Guardian Empire on Saturday, creating a distant cause for his country to perish.

It was a long time ago, so I don't know about it now, but there would be images of animal weapons used by haters.

The Qur 'an Dragon Empire is an old country that still exists, a thousand years after its founding.

However, one dynasty has not ruled all the time for a thousand years, and the contents have been replaced over and over because the dynasty has been replaced and seized more than once.

I don't know the details, but each dynasty has named the successor to the founder Ananta I, or heir to the dynasty, and so the kanban called the Qur 'an Dragon Empire has been used without being unloaded for a thousand years. Apparently.

Well, no matter how much the contents change, an established sign would be something you don't want to unload.

"The eagle tormented me before, so I thought I'd bring it this time"

"Oh, you did... Is that what this is about? But how well... were you flying?

"I was flying"

I was flying so well.

What was that?

"To tell you the truth, I've seen it several times, too."

"Oh, where did you see that?

Basically, dragons are desert-climate animals, so they shouldn't be on papal territory.

"Actually, I've been to the Qur 'an Dragon Empire in academic investigations. I saw it many times then."

"Oh really?"

Dr. Etha's been to a lot of places, too, right?

"Other than that, there's actually a line of spectacles coming around Vaticanus that you can see."

"Heh."

"Exactly, I'm not going inside Vaticanus...... about every four years? I rented up a few fields in the nearby countryside, put up a big tent there, and made it a spectacle. After all, people seemed to be interested, and the citizens went to see a lot of it."

Is it like a circus?

Well, that's what I'd like to see.

Even I, the spectator brought a dragon near Sibyak, would have definitely gone to see it if something happened.

"Is that what a spectacle shed breeder keeps all year round?

"No, the climate still doesn't seem right in the peninsula, and it seems to be dying. Instead, from what I've heard, you seem to be buying up and bringing up dragons that are no longer in use due to injuries, etc. Dragons can't fly long enough to transcend the ocean, so I tie them up with rope and load them up on a ship, but after all, when creatures are done like that, they wear out very much. When I came to Vaticanus, I heard that my breath was constant and I couldn't fly."

I guess it's a one-way ticket for a dragon.

It's pathetic.

I guess even the dragon I crashed wasn't the plan to bring home alive to Africa.

"Well, I guess what I saw was quite impossible to carry."

"I think so. It must have been a more spectacular dragon than it was to have lived to the end of such a north. Nevertheless, you would have had to burn large quantities of firewood every day, which I have often brought."

After all, that's the kind of observation Dr. Etha makes.

"And dragons are important in the Cocorru community. Originally, it's not very good for them to spectacle dragons or bring them north and treat them like disposables. And the people who made it into spectacles, well, they felt like half the dark guys."

"Really?

So the dragon cavalry I killed was some kind of haggler, too?

Not all eagle riders are fully 100% knights, but they are civilian eagle riders in the form of messengers that merchants really urgently request.

Well, if you were a decent regular knight or a soldier, why don't you come to this place even though it's not a war in your own country?

"A dragon is like an eagle, and it's an object of pride for those over there. At the same time, wild individuals are also a threat to humans. Unlike horses and such, wild dragons don't get used to people. Extermination is also routine for people, so he says those who kill dragons are respected as brave men. It's different from the culture around this eagle."

You first heard the story of the brave man who killed the dragon.

Even if I have a history that I feel a little proud of in a distant country that I would never go to, it doesn't seem to gain me anything.

I feel like I found a whale for about 10,000 yen that expired.

On the contrary, I feel a little lost.

"Really? Well, the way I saw it, it looked a little different from an eagle, so the culture would change."

The eagle is smart, he obviously remembers people, and everything has loyalty.

As a civilization that deals with riding animals flying in the same sky, I can't help but want to make comparative cultural observations, but I also find it harder to find similarities.

"Did you see it nearby?

Oh, was that a bad way of saying it?

Um, are you kidding me?

But you'll find out later, and you have nothing else to hide.

"Right, well, I hit every eagle in the sky, and I got a little conflicted"

"... Huh? Is Mr. Yuri here? Oh, the foot wound was then."

Well, not at that time, but it doesn't make a big difference.

If you look for distant causes, it's because of the crash.

"Uh, well, yes. Truth be told, that's where bad luck begins. But thanks to you, I managed."

Thanks to Teacher Etha for teaching me Terrorist...... But shall we connect?

Oh, but Dr. Etha, you seem a little angry...

"From your birth, Yuri, it may not be to blame for being brave... but there was a proverb in the South that said," Suddenly, there is no fruit. "

"Yes."

"This is a proverb derived from the fact that a tree called the Octopus tree occasionally produces early fruit, the fruit of which is sour and does not grow any seeds, that is, even if it lives and hastens from a young age, it must not be a great cause…"

So Dr. Etha mumbled.

"Mmm..."

I heard a voice that didn't even cough up, that came out unexpectedly.

Perhaps I remember telling you a story I made up when I was younger, and oh, so am I. Besides, I just talked to you... I would have thought.

That could be clearly drawn from the expression.

"... that's what it means, but Yuri made me... that, on the other hand, I have to work hard to be a teacher"

I think I managed to get it together.

"Yes, I will"

It didn't sound good to my heart, but I felt Dr. Etha worried about me.

"Uh... yes, I did. It's about the job I was asked to do."

Whoa, is this about the eagle scripture translated by Etha?

Half the time today, that's why you're here.

"I managed to get it done"

And Dr. Etha looked at the book that was spreading on her desk and said:

Is that so?

"Thank you. It helps."

"I read it over and over and rewrote the annotations, so it got a little ugly......"

"Were you reading it back now?

"Yes, it's an important job, so I've made a number of recommendations, but I haven't found a part to add in the last two weeks or so, so for now this is it... and then I hope Yuri can read it and point out where it needs to be fixed"

"May I read it for a moment?"

"Absolutely."

And, Dr. Etha lifted the book on her desk looking heavy and gave it to me.

It's so thick.

Looks like I wrote it in a blank book on parchment.

Opening the page, there is no foreword or anything, and the story begins at the beginning of the scriptures of Islam.

Whether you had considered writing and corrections from the beginning, there was a lot of room between the lines, and quite often horizontal lines were drawn in the sentences, with corrected sentences written underneath them.

The making of the text is easy to read and compared to several other books in the Terrorist language that I have read in addition to the Bible, I feel that my eyes are easy to understand, but is rhyming (ooh) also taken into account?

As for the Terrorist language, although we can talk, it doesn't mean we can be proficient and freely manipulated, so we can't absorb good things to the point of poetry.

I can't judge a good or bad sentence, but it's Dr. Etha's sentence, so I guess it's pretty good.

After I read a few pages, I cut them off in the right place and shut the book down.

"It would have been tough. Later on the rewards."

"No, for the reward..."

"Take it. If you didn't let me do this job and give you the reward, you'd think I'm weirder."

This is an excuse to make me accept the money, but I want Dr. Etha to have enough money if possible to buy safety.

"... yes, then let me sweeten your words"

"It would be helpful if you did that."

"Book, I just want to give it to you now... maybe you should let someone pick it up later"

Dr. Etha looked at my leg.

Indeed, with the cane on, it may be dangerous to bury the other arm with the book as well. The stairs?

"Then I'll come back for it later. In a few days, you'll be able to walk."

Instead, the printing press is probably still more developed, so even if a book is made, it can't be instant publishing.

You can just make it out of a board, but if you can, you want to do it in typescript.

Terrorist has fewer characters than Shan and only thirty crosses, making it ideal for running out.

"Really? Then I'll keep it now."

"Please"

I returned the book to Dr. Etha.

"Well, it's time for you to spare me"

I had a little errand to run after this.

"Really? Unfortunately, I can't help it."

I stood slowly out of my chair with the cane I was standing on.

A light numbness ran on his injury-free right leg due to the effect that he was torturing one leg, but the wound didn't hurt.

Raising his gaze from his feet, he caught sight of the eagle scriptures that had been returned to his desk again.

I wonder.

Maybe this will change history.

Perhaps this will be the biblical origin that will be printed in the future with tens of billions of copies.

Well, if everything didn't go well, I guess I'd be buried in history as a heresy who wrote heresy.

I can't help thinking about the future, but if the world were a lake, it would be one of those stones I would throw there.

I don't know if that ripple will disappear or gradually become a rough and massive tsunami.

But the stone is here now, before it is released into the lake, before it is questioned by the world.

Previously, Dr. Etha said something about it.

By the act, there may be people who will die.

I walked to the door, twisted the knob and opened the door.

"Dr. Etha."

I turned around and said.

"What's wrong?

"The fire that Dr. Etha used to put on may burn up again by that book. I think that's okay."

"... why?

"Because fire doesn't just burn people to death. We need fire."

And I went on to say,

"If people are freezing"
