"For now, let's get hungry." I got the one that was in the temple just now. "

"Guglecus-sama, at any moment...."

In order to help Cherinor, the dead girl, I had to knead the fruits of the offering from the altar.

"You didn't eat anything, did you?"

Ah, thank you.

The two tentacles (...) hidden in the back are for close combat and personal protection with a hidden subarm that can be telescoped. Slime-bound artificial muscles allow you to move freely at ultra-fast speeds, in harmony with your consciousness.

"I can't fight when I'm hungry, but just mouthing fruit juice will cheer me up."

It's kind of you, Master Guglecus.

Sit on a stump in the woods and share the pineapple-like fruit.

The Spotting Barrier (Circle) lived there. For now, it's safe within a 200-meter radius. There were no signs of monsters or people in the surrounding area.

"Even so, I'm used to raising children."

"Is that so...?"

Unbelievable, he rolls his eyes.

"I have a wife and child. And a family your age. [M]" []/(n) (1) (uk) (abbr) (abbr) large belt/(2) (uk) large band/large band

"Ehh!?"

Even though he was such a lovely and young wizard, his wife and son were probably surprised by his family.

Is your family safe?

"Yeah, we're not far from here, we're in a safe place."

Cherinold blinked his eyes.

There's a safe place. You must have felt hope in the word.

Cherinauer seemed to be on guard against me, the ultra wizard. However, it seems that you have finally trusted me. It's a relaxed, soothing expression.

"... thank goodness."

Cherinol mouths the fruit.

The taste is sweet and the fruit juice spreads all over the mouth.

"I'll take you to safety."

Yes!

But.

Is there a lot of noise in Methanostadt by now?

Alberina, it may be interesting, but if I were to disappear into a boulder, it would be a stir in the castle. You can't just shut up.

Manuferno will be worried if he finds out. "No, every time. It's all right because it's about Guggle-kun"...

Kids, I want to see Portura and Mint. When I come back, I'm happy to hug you. Don't you miss it?

Riola, too, for plums and hemperosa. And Lentmia was probably worried too.

"It's delicious."

I wish you'd brought me some ham, too.

I was about to be made into raw meat.

"... can I laugh, that?"

“It's okay, I'm feeling better.”

Celinor smiles.

Unexpectedly elegant, she seems to be a solid child.

"That's good."

I wish I had caught a few evil men. There must have been dozens of them, but they fled deep into the woods, and we don't even know what they're doing.

Various anxieties swirl, and I can't stand or stand. I've lost myself in a mysterious alien world, and I can't do anything about it now.

At least get Cherinor somewhere safe. We need to find someone we can trust and deposit them.

I thought of a way to find Metius and get him back.

Alright, let's find someone on the horns and on the bowls and meet up.

Yes!



We kept walking on foot to the nearby town.

While I was moving, I was able to hear a lot of stories from Celinor.

“There's really just a little bit of what I know.”

"Thank you for telling me. It's interesting."

In her words, “There were seven countries in the world, Galliahan, Richtalia, Itzbul, Ruhujer, Ovalahan, Kraitur, and Leron, and they lived peacefully in coexistence and coexistence.”

My knowledge coincides with that of the Seven Nations, known as the Kingdoms of Stralia.

Located on the western side of the continent is the same, but the lands to the east and north are deserts or desolate wastelands. Outside, the sea is dark and foggy.

None of the adventurers who once rowed out on a boat for the new heavens and earth came back.

"You know what you're doing." Do you read books well? "

"In an orphanage, I can only read books."

Cherinor seemed to be a wise, well-read child.

There is no other country. Of course, there is no superpower, the Kingdom of Methanostadt, no Prussian Empire, and no Kingdom of Cangrun.

This is a world different from the one I was in, so I'm sure of it.

― ― Parallel world Stralia.

This world is now threatened with annihilation by an invader - a mage - who has flown from the sky.

The people have been deprived of their lives without any means, and the nation's army continues to fight back and defeat them in vain.

Seems to have been thrown into a pretty tough situation.

Isolated and helpless.

I don't think I can expect any relief right now.

What can I do without even Metius?

I was frail too.

The feeling of loneliness gradually eases my mind.

"Mr. Gugrecas, the carriage!"

"Oh my God, it's been destroyed..."

There was an abandoned carriage at the end of the road. Scattered luggage, devoured horse bones. There were also signs of resistance and battle. Broken swords, bloodstains, etc.

It looks like the evacuees were attacked here.

"I think they are the ones who escaped from the capital."

No strange and human corpses are found. I wonder if I was devoured by a monster. The green slime stained the carriage. An unknown slime that withered the surrounding plants. It seemed to be toxic.

"You shouldn't touch it too much."

I'm sure it's a mage's... monster.

"Have you seen it?"

"Yes. A green creepy monster..." Someone familiar with monsters said they had never seen them. ”

"An unknown monster..."

I wonder if it was the mage's original monster.

In the first place, are you really a mage?

In a world with only seven countries, there is a strange sense of discomfort, such as flying from the sky.

Something is wrong.

There have been several crises in Methanostadt. It is an existence that tries to enter from the "outside world" such as Super Dragon Dracilia.

The gatekeeper sealed in the wise man's stone also felt and understood the invasion from another world.

No way...

"Guglecus-sama..."

It's okay, I'll take down the monster.

You remember the horror experience, Celinor is pale. I took a cold hand and decided to walk together.

The girl clenched her hand back at me, desperately trying to stay away.

After a while, the forest was broken off and the number of similarly destroyed carriages increased.

It is gradually approaching the place where people lived. It was dotted with houses that had been destroyed without a shadow. The hilly areas around here were probably rural.

"It's a village...!"

I can see the village in the center. As we approached, the building was destroyed and left in ruins.

Perhaps he ran away in a hurry, and the village square was littered with objects. Bloodstains dot the area, showing the battles and chaos.

"I wonder if the people in this village are safe..."

"In this state..."

“I recognize it. This is definitely... beyond that western hill, it's the capital of the kingdom."

The sun was approaching beyond the hill where I pointed.

"That's enough for today, Cherinor." It will give me a few days soon. Let's rest in this village. "

"Yes....."

Cherinole seemed tired of walking on the boulders.

The sun is also falling to the horizon in the west. There is also a distance to the capital city. If it gets dark, you won't be able to walk Celinor.

"Mr. Gugrecas, there's water over there."

"Great."

Fortunately, the water field in the square was functioning and clean water was flowing. I washed my face and limbs and finally took a breath.

The nearby inn building was half burned down, but when I looked inside, there was still a room where I could sleep. I will bother you and rent the room upstairs.

"I'll pay for it."

I'm glad you're safe on the bed.

"You should rest here. [M] I'll check the perimeter a little bit."

"But, Gugrecas-san, you're tired..."

"I'm fine." Maybe there's something left to conserve. ”

"Yes... take care"

I decided to explore the surroundings while letting the anxious Celinole rest in his room.

I'm watching the entire perimeter of the Spotting Barrier (circle), so if anything moves, I can tell right away.

Look around the inn. She looked up and saw Cherinol half her head through the window, staring at us worriedly.

"If there's anything, magic will show."

The trail of destruction is new. It must have been destroyed just a few days ago.

Invaders - Mage armies spread warfare and there may not be a safe place to go.

It's a few houses and the pub is a mess. A piece of meat is hanging from the ceiling of the fireplace. A little, but I found some food.

And some empty wine barrels were rolling.

"... it would be better if I had a pawn."

Six barrels in all.

--Mucus Magic (Sloudu)!

Generate artificial slimes with magic. Pour into each wine barrel. In a minute or so, the slime grew enough to fill the inside, and the barrels moved on their own.

Fluidize and power the protoplasm on the inside.

"A new wine barrel golem."

Since it is a newborn, various control procedures are installed to follow the commands.

The only things left to do are form maintenance magic (Sonoma), outer shell hardening magic (Kochloon), and impact against the magic barrier......

I finished with a variety of battle magic.

I really wanted to create an airborne magic that could levitate in the air, but that was enough for now.

Return to the square with the golem and six wine barrels.

"Eh... barrel!? Guglecus-sama, that's...!"

"These are my trusted associates."

Cherinhorn looks down from the upstairs window in amazement. Snap your fingers.

The wine barrel golems went around in circles. Rolling suddenly stopped. Turn and turn in the opposite direction. Feel free to dance like a dancer.

"That's why..."

Awesome!

Cherinho applauded and smiled at the unexpected dance show.

And it was then.

― ― Responding to the Spotting Barrier (circle)!

- Unidentifiable (Announcement) Many!

Tactical information display (tactics) pops up with a warning tone.

"Cherinor, hide."

"Guglecus-sama...?"

Dozens of monsters were approaching.

From the outskirts of the village. Was it originally lurking around, or was it gushing out with the twilight...?

I'm going to get you active soon.

Place the wine barrel golem as an avant-garde.

The group of monsters approached the entrance of the village. There was a strange movement. I'm moving on the ground, but I'm not choosing the path.

...... Cubbuaa!

"This is it."

- Enemy encountered!

Tactical information display (tactics) transitions to the first battle form.

The monster in front of me was hard to describe.

The whole body is fluorescent green. A caterpillar-shaped lower body that mimics a human fetus. Both eyes are like insects, and the black complexion covers half of the face.

"This is... this is a terrible creature"

--Unable to parse, race unidentifiable!

In conjunction with the Spotting Barrier (circle), the Tactical Information Display (tactics) was attempting to analyze it. But it didn't exist in the list of monsters I had fought in the past.

On the contrary,

Look at you...

I put it on...!

Nnh, meaty...!

The human-faced caterpillars gathered one after another. Countless compound eyes without eyeballs, a bunch of evil gazes pour out on me.

"I talked to you...!?"

It's not a golem, it's a monster that manipulates people. A type of Homunculus.

Green-faced caterpillars inflated in bubbles are about the size of medium-sized dogs. Whether it's spreading poisonous gas around, the grass on the ground is withering away.

Poisoning, paralysis, and abnormal condition.

Gububu, do you think humans face each other?

Oh my God! I am the vassal of the great Leptilia Tiau...!

Do you think we're going to be enemies to Ramashtu...!

"...... that's your name."
