The elegant daily routine of sage Grecas - here we go with a lovely 'Sage Hall' life!

◇

I listened to Ergonote and worked out a strategy as I helped prepare for the journey.

Even though I declined this trip, it's possible to figure out how to fight ahead of time. The Ergonotes are certainly all fierce people with experience, but if they don't calmly determine what's going on around them and fight, they can think enough about falling into a predicament.

The quest brought in by Ergonote involves the exorcism of the demons - and the remnants of the Demon King's Army - that have surrendered to Popolato, a seaside town on the easternmost tip of Metanostadt.

In the event of damage caused by demons, extermination is carried out in the form contracted by the "escorts" based in each city. This is because it maintains the safety of local residents and the preservation of traffic through a kind of turnover system, whereby consideration is paid for bringing some of the monsters that have been set aside into the hall.

However, if a dangerous demon with no teeth appeared in the general escort, the king's government would hire a senior escort (the so-called "adventurer") for money.

Of course, each city has some "regular army" of kingdoms stationed in it, but this is only a preparation for war with other countries, specializing in "regular warfare" between armies.

Countries struggled in the former Demon King's Wars because the Demon King's army organized and operated demons that took advantage of their respective terrain, such as forests, mountains, deserts and seas, and set up "unofficial battles (guerrilla commands)" that were disillusioned. It is said that because of the situation whereby regular armies, which have been cut off and torn apart in various parts of the country, are destroyed, it has become difficult to respond as an army.

(He then formed coalitions of nations, the "Union of Humanity," around Metanostadt, to go into a major counter-attack operation against the Demon King's Army. We Dickamaran heroes are just "one party" who took part in the operation to storm the Demon King's Castle with that gap... but this story is one more opportunity)

This time, the people who attacked the port town named the "remnants of the Demon King's Army" and attacked the fish market - eating the freshly fried fish and causing injuries to market officials.

It was precisely that day's raid, which had also largely carried out the "Victory Celebration Party," and would obviously have been aimed at an "act of terrorism" against the Kingdom.

If we move the Regular Army to crusade the remnants of the Demon King's Army, we will expose ourselves to unstable realities at home and abroad. Here, too, the king's government held its head.

I guess I needed an adventurer, but also an unbeatable level of adventurer to fight the Demon King's Army executive class to handle the case without making things rough.

"- So that's where Dickamaran's hero comes in? The day after the party, the demonic exorcism is a very convenient and convenient thing for us, isn't it?

I was sarcastic, and Ergonote looked a little bit like that for a moment.

"Ha ha, well don't say that, Grecas! Thank God we have a place to play. Tasty liquor, splendid mansions, adventures, that's what you got!

Ha ha! And look at the cheerfully laughing ergonote and I sigh small.

I mean, you can't go against the sponsors' intentions?

Ergonote is a respectable brave man with impeccable charisma and strength, but there is a verse where he thinks, "In order to remain a brave man, you have to keep fighting".

I feel that it has been successfully used by the king's government of Haiqian Mountain Thousand, but there is not much wind that the Ergonote himself cared about at the time.

Sometimes because of my cheerful and optimistic personality, they say, "Greg must think too much."

Well, at least this time, I'll let you stay out of it, so think about the risks if you get into battle, and just prepare carefully.

Though the Miscellaneous Fish of the Three Bottoms, they are the men of Culpnos, one of the Twelve Demon Generals who led the Demon King's Army. You won't be able to be alarmed.

General Twelve Demons were specially enhanced demons specializing in terrain and circumstances that could maximize their abilities. It was nicknamed "General" because it lived in the same intelligence as a human being and led a herd of demons.

Incidentally, the "Culpnos Corps" to which the demons belonged this time is a mixed corps of both marine and surface demons that area along the coast.

"- So we should definitely avoid fighting underwater in favor of our opponents more than our enemies are made up of aquatic demons. The basic strategy (Theory) is to attract them to land, stop them with flame or ice magic, and bring them into melee combat. And that's all I want you to be aware of..."

Me and Ergonote sit in the kitchen chair in the hall and try to simulate the demonic properties and weaknesses of the demon guided by the search magic (Gogol) and the movement of the members with tactical information displays (Tactics).

I hear Ergonote is humphung, but is it in my head properly?

Faria also participated in the operation conference on the way, but five minutes later, she said, "It's too hard to talk about Grey! Something like that...... you just have to grind it with force! It's the end of the line."

The brave man caked with his voice, and his head fell off his cheek wand.... I'm going to bed!

"You guys... are you sure you're okay? Lu, manu, lentomia! Remember the characteristics of the demons appearing in the vicinity of Popolato, on behalf of the two avant-gardes?

The search magic (google) results screen is visualized so that everyone can see it. Around the harbour town, there seems to be only "surface and surface" demons.

"Shh, awkward, I don't like water..."

"Mucus. The demons around the ocean are tentacles, mucus... you look like Gugle, kusu"

"Greg! Me, I'm not comfortable without trees around me?

"Lu said he'd met some swordsmanship he could use underwater, right? Manu! Seriously, I can use anything else!?... Lentomia, I need you to hang in there."

"Hiki-kun, it's sweet for Lentomia!

"Uh? Huh. Am I?

Laughs like Lentomia lit up. Half an elf is doing well in the woods, but now it's the ocean.

Speaking of which, they're warm enough to swim in Popolato even at this time of year......

Swimsuit...... can I swim if I take it?

Huh?

Swimsuit? Lentomia's? Huh?

"Lord Grey, are you confused?

"Ha!?

Give it back to me. How about it, I'm too troubled too.

"But... I'm really worried..."

I want to finish synthesizing Plum's medicine early and join the Dicamaran members. But the reason I said I wanted to stay in this mansion is because it's not so easy to refine Pram's fundamental cure.

The truth is, even with Lentomia's help, it'll take a few days, but that's what I have to work on my own from today on.

The catalyst is used to synthesize about thirty different "base drugs" that serve as raw materials for the drug, and further combine them. It is necessary to further combine secondary products and perform more than three hundred processes.

The procedure has already been completed and a blueprint similar to the Tree of Life (Sephiroto), drawn by combining tactical information display (tactics) and search magic (Ghor), has already been completed.

- I can't help but be in a hurry. Believe in the power of Ergonote and my people, I just have to concentrate on my work.

Thanks to the fact that the harvest season of the village was over, a horse for all was available before noon.

This trip was not a carriage, but a horse of Ergonaut's beloved horse, the White King, who decided to go for a destination with a horse. Minimize luggage and focus on travel speed.

Finish preparing the horses at the garden tip of the hall, each straddling the horses.

The manuferno of not being able to manipulate the horse was supposed to get him on Faria's horse, but if he rides two, the horse will be exhausted. Pull two horses back so they can transfer along the way.

Lentomia draws the blood of the elves of the forest people, so the horse is a favorite. How many times have you ridden a unicorn? The way he manipulated the horse cleverly with his spine stretched out all the time, he looked like a Rin Boy, unlike usual.

Cat Ear Swordsman Lu doesn't show a sleigh that horses don't like because he is originally clever and light in body. The movement of the whole human horse gives a sense of suppleness, unique to the semi-beast man.

And this time Rookie, Iola, what a crossing of the White King with Ergonote.

"What do you say? Iola, that's a nice view, isn't it?

"Yes!"

Iola replies with a clear voice with her eyes glowing.

Riding a horse dressed to be held from behind by a brave man would be a coveted and dreamy privileged seat for a brave fan girl.

Iola looks back with a seemingly illuminating face, and the brave smile back gently.

One of the monks is watching with rotten eyes... Rather than coveting, the yodale is already dripping.

Iola wears the skin armor I bought her on her last trip and hangs her favorite dagger from her waist. When he put his hand on the sword pattern with a gesture of quiet prayer, he turned softly to me.

"Sage, I'm coming!

"Oh... go away"

I get my thumbs up and pray for Iola's good luck.

"Io brother y! Please be careful -!

"Brother Io... everyone will be back soon!

"Greg, we have all the catalysts, Greg can do it alone!

"Thank you, Lentomia. Take care."

"... yeah!

"Faria, don't push too hard, remember what I said."

"Greg, don't worry! You stay focused on curing Miss Plum!

"Oh, sure."

Where each exchanges magnificent greetings, Ergonote announces his departure.

"Okay, let's go, guys!

And Riola ran out of the hall.

"-Io!"

"Riola!?

With a few greetings, Iola reached out to Riola, who ran over to the giant white horse.

Extend each arm from above and below the horse and hold each other's hands all the time. And they stayed staring at each other, exchanging words about nothing for a while.

The brothers and sisters who had done so for just one time eventually let go quietly.

"Did you hear that?

"Ah......! Rio's voice is right."

Iola and Riola smiled at each other and took out the pendant that was hanging around their necks to show them.

That's the magic item I gave you the first time we met, "The Mark of the Brave" and "The Drop of Mercy". The transparent gem emitted a slightly pale and transparent light.

If we go away, it will be an indicator of each other's position, and if we lose sight of it, we will always attract it.

A magical item with such power resides in the ability to convey thoughts and words no matter how far away they are, if you think strongly of them while wearing them.

I don't even know what words they exchanged.

But as we saw the two faces, I guess we told each other what it felt like to really care.

"Well, come back."

Riola says as her chestnut hair swells in the wind and her fingertips lift the hair on her cheeks.

"Holy shit! Look at you, you most powerful member! Nothing... because you don't have to worry"

"... yeah!

To Iola's words, Riola snorted.

Just about a week apart, but it could be a hard and long time for twin brothers and sisters.

But with a pendant of magical gems, we'll be able to make sure we're safe with each other and how we feel at all times.

"You asked for it from me, too, Ergonote."

"Ha ha! Let it go, sage Grecas! And the girl, no, it's Riola! I'm sure you'll come back here!

- Come on, let's go on an adventurous journey -! and when Ergonote raised his voice softly, everyone was in the same mood at the same time, and the horse moved slowly.

Me, Riola, and Pram and Hemperoza kept dropping off in front of the hall until they were all smaller and invisible.

The late autumn sun, which began to lean, was wrapping a row of brave men in a warm light.
