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

◇

"Here, live happily ever after."

"... cu..."

I hugged the cave species slime and spared my goodbye.

I feel comfortable with good elasticity and moisture when I hug it. Nice slime. Patience the urge to take it back to the Sage Hall.

This is their new cave species Slime's new heaven and earth, a cave just off the river. It looks like a lava cave. It's pretty big inside.

The humidity and temperature are impeccable. Above all, there seems to be no disruption to the ecosystem.

"It's an inspiring farewell…"

Under the feet of Methius the fairy floating in the air, white slimes in rows march towards null and behind the cave.

Nearly a hundred large slimes will emigrate here (...), but the cave will be wide and safe and essential for the living space.

Besides, it is now excessively swollen with magic, but over time it will also work advantageously in that it loses its magic and returns to its original size.

Sage Grecas, this is an emergency call from Lady Lentomia.

"Hmm?"

The fairy Metius opened a magical window.

- It's not good, Greg! Come on!

Lentomia's pressing voice was heard through a magical line of communication.

"What's up, Lentomia?

"Where now!? The Commander of Combat is about to summon something! It may be out of your control."

Apparently, it's an emergency.

I thought I had defeated the anthrax of Grand Demon mentor Laffert Pultinus, but you mean that was an outpost (...)?

"Oh man...... Can you transfer the footage there or the information from the Enemy Order?

"- I'll send them both right away"

Video of the scene was shown in a magical window (window) in front of him. That's the square in front of Archtiles Castle. But in the beautiful square there was a wretched red and black light, swirling like a tornado.

"Hey, what the hell!?

"- As you can see, we're in the middle of a massive sorcery activation..."

The tactical information display (technique) also shows information such as the distribution of magic overlapping the city's schematic.

"Dude, there's a rapid concentration of magic happening around the square......! A curse!? They seem to be gathering from all around us..."

"Magic fluctuations are similar to the anthrax possessed by the Chancellor."

Fairy Metius checks the properties of magic.

"I see that anthrax and the same series of powers are gathered and ritual-grade magic is activated!

'- Probably. Can you see the magic circle, too, Greg?

A huge magical circle was depicted on the cobblestone pointed out by Lentomia. In addition, the battle demon leaders are falling flabby in the square. Everyone is falling with their chests peeled and their chests wide open.

Expanding the footage, he also saw a burnt mole (bruise) around the top of his heart.

"This is...! Was a curse close to anthrax being treated by all the Combat Demon Instructors!

"- The archdeacon named Laffert and his men. I drew a magical circle for about thirty people. Maybe it's based on demoralization or resuscitation... and it seems like the magic of the smelting system of pseudo-life... don't you recognize it?

……

Greg used to do something similar, didn't he?

Lentomia lowers her voice slightly.

Is that about Pram? But he's not going to pursue it in depth either, Lentomia or now. Keep talking right away.

"- Greg, listen carefully. The Magic Circle Catalyst (...) is the flesh of a dragon brought in by the" Lord of the Forest, "plus a curse that was nestled in the body of a Combat Demon Instructor. I cast a magical mass of magic as a magical force for the excitation of a magical circle."

The analysis in the field by Lentomia, the master of magic, the top wizard, would be accurate.

"I see. In other words, the same series of curses as Chancellor Zaphart's" Anthrax "were applied to the body of the warrior master..."

As Chancellor Zafart did, it is possible that they were also unconsciously manipulated and guided (...) in their actions. That is.

"- They did say... resuscitate" Laffert a Original "that was deep underground..." or something. "

"What? Who, what is Laffert a Original"

- Probably the ancestor of the archdeacon, Laffert Prutinus.

Lentomia seems to have said it in mild condition, but out of the blue. Maybe that's telling the truth.

Exploring with search magic (Ghor), there were people with names similar to those of the wizards who had roughed up the land in the days of the founding of Rudens.

Witch, Laffert-a-Ordinal.

This time the mastermind, the archdeacon mentor Laffert Prutinus, is the sister of Chancellor Zafart, so I guess it's just another being with a similar name.

But there may be some kind of kinship... for example, offspring, or something like that.

It feels like pieces of the puzzle that fell apart will combine.

"If you consider that the series of incidents is aimed at reviving the ancient witches..."

He said the cause of the food poisoning incident in Rudens was "cursed contaminated meat". Taking it into the body caused damage that caused confusion, confusion of consciousness, etc.

What if we consider that to be a symptom similar to the previous phase of "anthrax"?

The curse infected in the body (...) gathers and grows magic from the subject's human beings. Eventually what sprouted (...) appears on the chest as "anthrax".

"Anthrax" would grow rapidly if humans had as much magic power as the Battle Demon Instructors. And he is subject to unconscious behavioral control by his mastermind, the Great Demon Instructor Laffert.

But it was the presence of my brother that became an "obstacle" to the plan of the archdeacon Laffert.

He was a convenient handkerchief as well as a disturbing being.

Because the personality of the original "Chancellor Zafart Prutinus", who was aware of the right duties, prevented the spread of the cursed meat infection.

He committed himself to taking measures and detoxifying food poisoning cases before they spread.

"Operation Diet" in the capital, Arctils, will also have resulted in saving many Rudens citizens and Faria from the pollution of the "curse".

Because if they did poorly, many of the residents of Rudens would have been infected with the same curse "anthrax" as the warrior demon mentor.

But the problem is Bearhudu and Nyakoru.

The insertion of meat into us, and the loading of "dragon meat" into the square...

They had moved as messengers of The King of the Woods, but they could not help but doubt a series of moves. I can't say enough that I'm not under unconscious control by the Great Demon Instructor Laffert.

Nevertheless, prying into it now is a waste of time.

"Lentomia, even if the enemy's aim is to revive the old witch Laffert-a-Ordinal, we can't hope for 100% success when we set foot in the land."

To my voice, Lentomia seems to have regained her composure.

'- Right. I know you were going to collect curses from all over the city... but that's a failure. Something I've only gathered about 30 or 40 from what I've seen.'

"Can Lentomia alone destroy the magic circle?

"I withstood my flaming magic blow. I'm starting to develop a high-density junction. Disassemble with a powerful curse (dispel) or physically attack enough to take a decision (eg) from ground to ground... it won't break '

"If so, the simultaneous siege attacks of Faria and Dragon Warriors will also be effective."

"-But Faria's not all there is. Well, I'm going to tap into the great magic with Circle Magic (Cycloa) now. I'll be ready... but Greg's coming too!

"Okay, I'm going now!

So, close the magic communication once.

"Sage Grecas, but you don't have much magic left! Fighting is dangerous."

Fairy Metius sits on his shoulder worried.

"Hey. I'll do something with my temper."

"What temper... no"

There are other ways to fight.

It is decided to open a remote window (window) from the tactical information display (technique) and put in residual combat power.

"Come! 'Full', 'Blurb'! Plus a mass-produced" Barrel "platoon! Collect in autonomous flight mode!

Beyond the window (window), the barrel mark changes from yellow "Standby" to blue "Active".

Filled with magically smelted artificial slime, the 'Wine Barrel Golem' accumulates a great deal of magic inside.

If you are in normal mode, you can operate for an entire day or three hours even if you are manoeuvring at maximum combat speed.

"I see! You had that hand."

"Oh. Besides... I'll make an emergency call to Wang Du"

"You want a report?

"No, it's a rescue request."

If there is any chance that more dangerous enemies will emerge, we have to call for reinforcements.

As soon as I connected the communication line in audio mode, I heard voices.

That was not Lord Wilstein, the Knights Commander, but the Kingsguard Wizard of Her Royal Highness Princess Snoovel, Leistoria.

"- (Zazzling) Sage Grecas, the report is slow. This one already knows what's going on. An undercover liaison has been communicating the situation '

The beautiful High Elf wizard tells pale in a voice that doesn't make you feel any emotional disturbance.

"Oh, really? It's all in the trap."

'- (The…) As soon as I return, I will examine you. Be prepared.'

"I'm sorry, I can't hear you in bad communication. But it's quick. I need your help."

'- (Zach)... I've already got one over there, on the fastest flying dragon (Wyburn). Because I have not determined that this was the case until I moved the Princess's Central Immediate Group (Militia). "

"Isn't Lord Leistoria coming?

'- (Zaza) It's not me. We have one friend (...) on our way. Good luck, Grecas.

"Hey, who?

That's where the comms went out. Apparently one helper is coming... Who the hell would that be?
