The Executed Sage Reincarnates as a Lich and Begins a War of Aggression

Episode 34: The Wise Man Holds the World Tree Forest in His Hands

Generating a force field at my feet, I stood far above.

The wind blows through the robe.

I don't feel so cold because of my bones only body.

Next to me was Luciana.

She is whistling happily.

It's a familiar melody.

I think it was some musician's signature song.

Apparently Luciana is also familiar with human culture.

There are lonely streets beneath our eyes.

It was once the capital of a small country.

It was also the land that kept Henry company.

It's supposed to be deserted. There, I see soldiers.

They are Imperial Army.

They are unjustly occupying this city and treating it as a substantial imperial territory.

Exactly. He hasn't got his hands on the Demon King's territory and adjacent areas, but he's finally taken a grand occupation to the capital.

It is an amazingly bold action.

Do you want to make your country profitable by so long?

It's an area I don't understand.

I don't even want to understand.

(Try to destroy the small country for your own benefit and take away the vacant land...)

It would not be a humanitarian instrument, although I am not in a position to say so.

It is a country that is ideally situated on opposite poles everywhere.

Luciana looked at the former capital as she swirled with pleasure.

When she stops whistling, she hugs me in the arm.

"Looking down like this, you're like a bug. I think I'm going to crush it a little. Don't you agree with Sama the Demon King?

"I kill humans, but I don't want to disparage them. eliminated as a necessary procedure."

"Ha..."

Luciana sighs slightly dissatisfied.

She has turned a faint eye on me.

"Seriously...... maybe one of these days you'll have a hole in your stomach"

"Instead of holes being drilled, they are so rotten"

Luciana laughed furiously when I gave it back.

I didn't mean to make a joke, but was it something that touched her harp line as well?

Whatever its true or false, it is an easier reaction to be cared for poorly.

"By the way, I'm asking you what you're going to do, but is it really possible?

"It's small, but I'm trying the same technique. As long as you have enough magic, you won't fail."

"You usually get caught there, don't you? Demon King Sama is really out of standard..."

Luciana shrugs her shoulders in a daze.

What she was saying had to do with why she visited this place.

I can snort to be skeptical, and I wouldn't have thought of it first if I was alive.

Because it is absolutely impossible.

Most of all, it can happen now.

Let's say a privilege allowed to the modern demon king.

"I'll even this place first. Watch the aftermath."

"Yes, yes."

Luciana once again distances herself from me and solidifies her defense with sorcery.

That strength shouldn't be a problem.

Having seen it that far, I begin to construct the surgical ceremony.

In front of both hands, a magic formation emerged.

The magic team rotates slowly and gradually increases its speed.

When the rotation culminated, countless black fireballs popped out of the magic formation.

Fireballs are born at tremendous speeds and fall into the ruins of the capital one after the other.

It's like a bunch of meteors.

Fireballs explode on the ground at the same time causing a huge explosion.

Hundreds - no, thousands of fireballs ravaged without interruption.

It will crush the city and plow the surrounding area indiscriminately.

A roar like the end of the world had erased all sounds.

"Hmm, that's about it"

I stop witchcraft by looking at the times.

My fingertips were melting and I was starting to melt and collapse.

It's a burden of surgery.

It didn't stop the recoil.

This is because of my control.

Now we have to refine it so that it can be exercised intact.

Based on reflection, I drop my gaze on the sight under my eyes.

Where the capital was, it had turned into scorched earth.

It has disappeared without a trace, and there is nothing left.

It seemed indistinguishable from the surrounding wilderness.

The chosen ground raises white smoke.

Luciana, who solves defensive witchcraft, shakes a lot.

"Ha, now you're telling me you don't hate humans, that's right. Isn't that too relentless?

"I don't imitate half the time. If we're gonna do this, we're gonna do it thoroughly."

"Sama the Demon King is disciplined. It makes me want to be an apprentice."

Luciana falls asleep with a cheek wand.

It's clever to say it's in the air.

I tell her that.

"I'll concentrate from here. Don't talk to me until you're done."

"Yes."

What we're going to be exercising is the art of space manipulation.

It improved a similar curse, and relaxation was strictly forbidden.

It was also only the previous phase for this purpose that destroyed the capital's ruins.

I assemble my surgery while draining a huge amount of magic.

I immediately learn something like tiredness.

Modulation due to a drastic reduction in magic.

Bear it with concentration and release the technique that finished building it.

The next moment, the vast scorched earth disappeared.

Instead a blue, sober forest emerges.

Standing in the centre are endlessly huge trees.

It shines a phosphorous light and bears a holy light.

I knew it existed, but it was the first time I had ever seen the real thing.

I guess the recognition-inhibiting technique peeled off and dew.

It responds to the immortal, but it is very beautiful.

In other words, it was the forest of the world tree.

What I did with the space manipulation curse was replace the coordinates.

They cut the scorched earth that was in this place, and drew the forests of the world trees far away.

It was a subspecies of metastatic magic that I always use.

That said, that's a different scale this time.

Boundaries were drawn in advance on the outer perimeter of the World Tree Forest to perform precise and safe transfers.

I don't know what's going on with the scorched earth I flew over there, but I don't have a problem with anything broken.

It is turned into barren land by a blacker fireball than the original.

The forest of the world tree that became the demon kingdom, but isolated from the king's capital was the problem.

As long as it exists in that place, it will always be targeted by the Imperial Army.

Then I thought I should let it adjacent to the Demon King's Realm, which prompted this change of coordinates.

From here to the demon kingdom, it's about half a day away.

There was also the possibility that if it was kept too tight, there would be a rash.

Based on the circumstances of both, this much distance would be reasonable.

If we pioneer areas on the abandoned road, the round-trip itself will be easier.

It should also be easier to protect from neighbouring countries.

I checked with sensory magic, and there were elves inside.

Looks like they were able to transfer safely, too.

Apparently, the operation was a success without fail.

"Wow... I can't believe it. I can't believe I could really do that."

Luciana raises an exclamation.

I also thought I was pulling a little.

She's the one who deals with witchcraft, which is why she can't believe the phenomenon in front of her.

I ask Luciana as she goes down the stairs of the force field.

"I'm going to tell the Elf chief it depends. Do you want to accompany me?

"Yeah, right. Dwight, you're your friend, right? I just want to see you. Wow."

Luciana follows me with her mind pumping for some reason.

Logan is not a loving man.

I don't think we can hope for the kind of conversation she expects, but it would be impeccable to point that out.

I'm also a little excited to see what kind of interaction the two will have.

Thus I obtained the forest of the world tree with the family of elves.
