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

The purpose in the Land of Magic was achieved.

Having murdered the inventor John Doe, I dismantle the fortified armor and take the secret stone from it.

It was a blue crystal the size of which would fit in the palm of my hand.

Just touching it this way makes me feel a tremendous fluctuation of force.

When I returned to the demon king's army with my secret stone in my hand, I put them together and forwarded them back.

One person remains, I will borrow the weapons and development materials of the Magic Country.

As the allowances were gradually transferred to the Wang capital, they were collected with particular regard to tanks and fortified armor.

These weapons have not yet been produced in large quantities.

It was supposed to be deployed only to the King's Capital in vigilance of the Demon King's Army.

Here I can prevent redevelopment by third parties by taking it all away.

Sooner or later a similar product will be born, but it will buy some time.

Too advanced weapons should not be disseminated at an early stage.

I'm going to use a secret detective to make sure it hasn't spread to other cities.

We must not spread the spark of war between humans.

Most of all, this is a plan for the future.

At this stage, the Demon King's Army achieved a complete victory.

All you have to do is return this secret stone, generally proceeding as planned.

Having left the almost completely destroyed capital with a transfer, I went straight to imperial territory.

A blue man-shaped light stands in the midst of the wilderness.

The Great Spirit.

As declared, she waited where we first met.

I speak as I approach.

"I brought a secret stone. I want you to make sure."

"Fine."

The Great Spirit, who turned this way, offers me one hand.

Then the secret stone in his possession floated.

And land in her hands.

The Great Spirit touches the secret stone for the time being to confirm.

Eventually I looked up.

"You are undoubtedly my secret stone. The enclosed magic is almost depleted, but let us forgive this extent. I am generous."

"Thank you"

The fact that it served as a power source for the giant Golem apparently forced the secret stone to drain considerably.

Fortunately, it was not damaged.

The Great Spirit took the secret stone into his body.

It must have been delivered to the main unit via the split.

"I've been feeling the pulse of a secret stone since late at night. Looks like he had a hard time recapturing it, but he did well."

"I just acted as promised."

"Few people can keep that promise."

The Great Spirit affirms.

There was some inclusion there.

I've lived a time that could be called a perpetual robbery.

Maybe I've had a lot of problems in the past.

"Depending on the outcome, I was going to eradicate your territory, but apparently you don't need to. Although in a distorted form, the modern Demon King acts as a mediator"

"You think I'm a mediator?

"Yeah. You're moving the world the way you want. You should be confident. We're on a different path from the Historic Demon King."

The Great Spirit speaks quietly.

In that tone, I felt no heart or kindness.

There seems to be a verse recognised by her for returning the secret stone.

As for the eradication of the demonic kingdom, don't touch it.

I don't have much to mention.

I know what the mad Great Spirit does.

The place where we are having this conversation is where it was once the city of the Empire.

It was not a threat, but a fear that the demon kingdom would expose itself to the same tragedy.

I am glad to be able to return the secret stone again.

"As long as you are the Demon King of mediation, no defensive mechanism will stand in the way. Remember that in your liver."

Copy that.

I nodded honestly.

There can't be any objections.

…………

The Great Spirit is silently looking at this one.

I didn't even do anything, I was just fixing my gaze on me.

I can't peek at my emotions.

At least the intent is unknown, though I'm not in the mood to kill.

In a subtly awkward atmosphere I break the silence and ask the Great Spirit.

"I've done my job. Can I go home now?"

"Please wait. As a token of my gratitude, I'd like to present you."

"What?"

Encouraging the continuation, the Great Spirit suddenly came stuffed.

When I stop long enough to shake my hand, she looks at my face and tells me.

"Present Me"

"... what do you mean"

When I hear that, I accidentally remember something like a headache.

From the suggestion that there was no sudden clapping, I had only a feeling of trouble.

It is not very flowable.

The Great Spirit continues to speak plainly in this state of mind.

"You didn't have enough words. Let's present this split precisely."

…………

There were still no words to give back to the Great Spirit who would state with his hands on his chest.

I feel like sighing.

If you believe her words, you'll get the Great Spirit.

To be honest, it was something I didn't really welcome.

The mighty power is fascinating, but it can cause more problems than that.

It wasn't as difficult to fight as I wanted to have such a problem.

Rather, it seems more peaceful to decline the presentation of the split.

It was painful in this battle against the Magic Country that unmanageable powers were at stake.

Not necessarily if I don't make the same mistake as John Doe.

Meanwhile, the Great Spirit peeks into my face.

"What's wrong?"

"Thank you for the Spirit's split."

"I took back the secret stone that went missing. I think that's about as reasonable as that."

The Great Spirit says naturally.

I guess she was going to give her split from the start as a thank you.

Now I'm convinced of that.

"I give the split an innocent personality and give it away. To me, you'll be like a daughter. nature is close to a baby, but you wouldn't do it wrong"

The Great Spirit adds even more heavy content.

It is no longer a thank you.

Somehow she's trying to push the split.

The reason for this was unknown.

At least I'm sure they liked it.

"How about that? Can you take it?

"... thank you"

I couldn't stand the gaze of the Great Spirit, and I couldn't help but acknowledge.

That's all I could say.

If you say no, it could damage her mood.

It was best to be honest here than trouble had not yet happened.

"That's all I'm talking about. I beg your pardon."

"Wait. One last thing I want to ask you."

I call off the Great Spirit.

She looked at this one strangely.

"It will be what. To the extent possible, I will answer."

I get permission. I start talking.

The main content is what has happened since you became the Demon King.

Among them I touched upon the brave men, the Virgin, and the inventors of this time.

List the puzzling parts that I had seen, heard and questioned.

"I call these phenomena the backing of the world and the will of the world. I feel something obviously manipulative, but is it a kind of defensive mechanism?

"No. We, the defensive mechanism, manifest ourselves as powerful beings. It doesn't take the form of an ambiguous phenomenon."

The Great Spirit denied it lightly.

It was somehow the answer I expected.

I thought they were slightly different in nature.

"Then what is the will of the world?"

"It's something that's not the will of the world. The world will never destroy humans."

"Don't you tell me clearly"

"This is advice, but you should get to the answer on your own. Because it's part of the way the modern demon king is."

The Great Spirit speaks solemnly.

It's not just a deluded mouthpiece.

It was a statement after thinking about me.

"The phenomenon you call the will of the world is far more irrational than the defensive mechanism. If you say so, it will be fate itself. So much so that there is a past in which even defensive mechanisms have been destroyed. But with homogeneous and conflicting powers, you can fight it."

"Homogeneous and conflicting forces…"

"If you continue to be the enemy of mankind, you will all know what that means"

That said, the Great Spirit separates the topics.

In the end, no clear answer was obtained, but one end of the mystery was touched.

Now I'll have to be satisfied with that.

I just asked obsessively, and I don't think she'll respond.

"Is that all you have?"

"Oh, that was helpful"

"That's good."

The Great Spirit did a smiling trick.

When she rises into the universe, she says goodbye as she looks down at me.

"Demon King. I look forward to seeing you again soon."

Light is emitted from the Great Spirit who has finished saying it, pushing it through to heaven.

Eventually, when it disappeared, a blue split of light was left on the spot.

The split falling to the ground sits.

Compared to earlier, the power is clearly weakened.

The momentum of light was also dwindling.

It looks like it has been gradually downgraded.

Probably because the main unit escaped.

The split slowly raises its face.

And stared at me.

"Detect Magic and Atmospheric Reactions - Authenticate Master. Best regards,"

"... it's a pleasure to meet you"

With an inorganic voice, I manage to respond.

The remaining split appears to have received no magic supply from the main body of the Great Spirit.

Independent as a complete individual.

Even though it weakened, it undoubtedly felt the power of the Great Spirit.

By its very nature, it was not capable of being left alone.

I have no choice but to take you home than to acknowledge receipt.

(... you feel like you've been fooled)

Think about that, but don't put it in your mouth.

I didn't even know where the Great Spirit was asking me.

Glimpse of the standing split and gently shrug your shoulders.

At the end of a fierce battle, the inventor of the Magic Land died.

By this event, I realized that excessive technological developments were poisonous.

I guess my presence is a distant cause, but it's not something I can see in the end.

If a world is visited in which the Golem and its developmental forms are mass-produced, surely the form of war will change.

Fights like this one will be repeated in a long time.

First of all, no doubt, it doesn't end with just a schematic of fighting demon kings and humans.

Will we welcome those times and make efforts to maintain a dangerous equilibrium?

Or stagnate civilization by destruction?

Sooner or later, you have to decide.

I guess we'll be forced to make various other decisions.

The whereabouts of the world are in my hands.
