The Last Surviving Alchemist Wants to Live Quietly in the City

"I'm a flame disaster. I'm in scorched earth now."

When I thought I had defeated three grounddragons, another grounddragon appeared. I don't think so. In the meantime, blow your head off with a blast of flame magic in your open mouth.

This worked. From the neck down, the meat remains raw without cooking. If I defeat the prey, I'll have to drain the blood, but it's a pain in the ass, so let's carry it.

Yeah. I tried to carry it, but it's heavy because it's big. I can't. Just the tastiest part of my back. Rip it with a wind blade, wrap it with leaves around it and take it.

The rest is a waste but an incineration disposal. Demons can evolve when eating meat from strong demons like ground dragons, so it's manners that burn up the remains and return them to the magic pulse.

Take as much as you want to eat and release the rest into the ground vein.

Exemplary behavior and self-portrayal, but apparently this wasn't the way to go.

Asked by the smell of a good BBQ, came a bunch of cluttered fish from the Wasabi or Demon Forest.

What, there's too many of these? Have you been hunting and skipping lately?

"I give food. Eat and burn the many enemies that face me." The Fire Columns Are Living. "

Fire!

The miscellaneous fishes coming towards me ignite from one end and blow up the fire column.

Ooh, burning burning. You're eating monsters. It burns well because of the fat on it.

I raised the pylon, so I was wondering if someone would pick me up. It's hard to walk.

"I say! Confirm strong magic at approximately 10 km southwest of the Devil's Forest!

Captain Kite of the City Guard, who received a report from a soldier of the Wall Guard, reports to his boss, the Colonel.

"Who are you? Are you the adventurer who left today!?

"No. No more adventurers than B-rank left today!

While Captain Kite was reporting on the adventurers who walked in and out of the gate, another decree jumped in.

"I say! We have confirmed a strong magical reaction again at approximately 9km point in the southwestern part of the Devil's Forest!

"What the hell! You're telling me you're getting closer...... Keep observing. I will report to the Labyrinth Crusaders. Captain Kite has secured the Southwest Gate."

"Sir."

With a pissy salute, Captain Kite takes his men to the Southwest Gate.

The battle power of the Labyrinth City is concentrated in the Labyrinth Crusader Army, and the City Defense Force is weak. Maintenance and management of exterior walls covering labyrinth cities, gate guards, development of demonic forests and defeat of weak demons entering agricultural land, and control of policing and criminal activities throughout the city are the main tasks. Since there are many relatively safe jobs, there are many people who lack the fighting power because of their familiarity, but when the structure of "urban defense forces because they are weak” is clarified, the motivation and morality of the assigned personnel are reduced, so they are positioned as "troops whose character and intelligence are required”.

It doesn't sound good when you say 'let's say things', but 'character and intelligence are required' is a certain truth. Terutel's successor, the current colonel, had instituted a policy of 'Citizen's Shield', which also allowed him to act politely and exemplarily against civilians and adventurers. Then, surprisingly, the popularity of the urban defense forces grew.

Originally, the city defense forces have more contact with the people than the Labyrinth Crusaders, who only show up in front of the people when a parade or important event of a massive expedition occurs, and then remain unknown and diving from the basement into the labyrinth. In the midst of a lot of people who can't read and write, well-groomed Urban Defense Corps officers treat them with courtesy. It can't be unpopular.

Especially the younger daughters. Compared to the Labyrinth Crusaders, their salaries are cheaper, but for less dangerous minutes, they are stable. More topical and gentlemanly than the Labyrinth Crusaders, who are swamped with pledges and secrets and even have trouble with conversation. I thought it might be an awesome bargain. It would be quick to talk if the popularity of young daughters grew. If the secret to popularity is to behave like a gentleman, it will be polished.

The powerful magic of an unidentified man approaching the labyrinth city made the city guard's jam constantly noisy for emergencies, but it was also temporary. Transformed into a group of conscious gentlemen, the Urban Defense Force, under the command of Captain Kite to act as a shield for the citizens in this incident, consolidated the protection of the Southwest Gate and observed the trend of someone approaching.

In contrast, the Teruter advisor said.

"Labyrinth Crusaders? Is this General Leonhardt's place for you? Wah, take me too!

"... Teruter Consultant, this is an emergency, do you understand?

Terutel advisor eating for a chance to meet the admired General Golden Lion.

Teruter's strong lovers are alive and well at times like this. Without much air reading, the Colonel of the Urban Defense Forces, who returned calm around, accompanied Teruter Consultant to the base of the Labyrinth Crusader Army.

"I'm a flame disaster. It's in the river now."

I remember this river. It is one of the tributaries of the underground large water supply of the Kingdom of Endalgia, flowing into the river on the south side. Sure there must have been a bridge, but I don't see a beautiful sapphire.

Apparently there are no people in this area. What laziness. They say the fruit that can be taken around here will be a very tasty drink, but no one comes to pick it up. I can't believe you're giving up good liquor! I'm upset, so I'll cut down a few nearby trees and put them on the bridge instead. After I defeated him, I realized that the strength of the demon was different across the river. Strong demons may flow to the other side of the river, but stay. It would surely be more important to be able to collect fruits that would make good liquor.

Good liquor and good food. The athletes he makes are quite good. I just noticed.

If a strong demon flows to the side of the Kingdom of Endalgia, he's so angry. You shouldn't bother people, he's been saying it since he was an ass blue kid.

What if I was made with snail meat only again? That was delicious, but if you missed three meals of Daedara Mai Mai a day in a row, it would be Tenko Mai.

At that time, I was forgiven for this gag. It doesn't look like next time.

When I was thinking about it, the demons came together again. Much weaker demons than scorched earth, but you have quite a B rank. Friendy Grizzlies? It's going to be a good ingredient like liver, but it's going to take a while to knock one down at a time, and the souvenir has the meat of a local dragon. Yeah. Let's cook it together.

"The Fire Columns Are Living."

Fire!

I think it's time we saw the fire pillar from the kingdom. Welcome. I don't know yet.

"This is the City Defense Corps, the Consultant Teruter. I have the courtesy to rush you, and I have come with the Colonel informally. I'd like to ask His Excellency the General to take over!

Terutel Consultant raising his voice at the base of the Labyrinth Crusader Army. Since when has it been reported? Let's see if his skill, Tunza, is working on its own again, because there is a sense of urgency.

Colonel and Teruter, who were immediately transferred to the conference room, report to Leonhardt, Weishardt, who appeared.

"You think something unidentified is heading toward the labyrinth city with advanced magic raging?

"Yes, we are currently continuing to observe who you are."

While Colonel Urban Defense Corps was reporting, a missionary under kite visited to report on progress.

"I say! The high magic reaction of the Devil's Forest has been confirmed near a river 5 km southwest of the labyrinth city! Another massive fire column has been confirmed to rise near the river from a lookout at the top of the wall!

"How massive is it?

"That was countless. I thought we'd go down a few dozen."

Typically, to magically attack multiple enemies, if it's fire magic, specify the range of attack with a line, like a firewall, or designate it with a face like a firestorm and unleash magic into space. Because otherwise you won't hit it.

It is easy to see how many stones you can throw in motion and guess at the same time. Of course, the wider the range, the more magic it takes, and it burns anything extra than the target, making it less aggressive against magic. If you use it in the woods, you can burn the trees and increase the damage.

So it's an exemplary way of attacking an enemy only by pinpointing it.

"Dozens of firepillars at the same time!?

Weishardt is stunned. How about that rank, as there were adventurers who could stone dozens of demons at the same time? It was the firepillar that I used. For embodying and releasing an event called fire, even a fire ball is more challenging than throwing a stone. The firepower is much higher, and the coordinates need to be fixed and activated.

Dozens of them at the same time.

If it is the work of only one person, it is not the ability to do so at A-rank. However, empires such as the S-Ranker, which manipulates the flames, have never heard of it in the surrounding countries.

"Who..., in the first place, are you a person..."

There is no doubt that someone with terrible power is only approaching the labyrinth city.

"We have not yet decided to be enemies. Call the bug man. If you're a bug, let's find out who you are without being distracted. Gather the Labyrinth Crusaders at the southwest gate. Just in case. Perfectly erase the signs and keep them lurking. The city guard's stuffing is closer to the southwest gate. We're moving too."

Labyrinth Crusaders moving immediately to Leonhardt's order. Let's call it a boulder response.

The base of the Urban Defense Forces is by the South Gate, closer to the Southwest Gate than the base of the Labyrinth Crusaders. Leonhardt's move to the front line is a necessity even considering the boosting effect of Leonhardt's skill Lion Roar.

It is nothing more than to say that Leonhardt always puts himself in danger.

Telutel catches a preaching order to return first in order to inform him of the general's visit.

"Is the room tidy? I also checked the bathroom and hand wash! And decorate the flowers so they smell good! Then then...,! I have a cup of tea in my room, so keep it ready. Eh!

"…, Alimus on Copy"

Is this the first woman to call her boyfriend into the room? Hiding such a voice of mind, the conductor rushed back to the City Defense Corps stuffing.

"I'm a flame disaster. I just saw the walls."

I've walked all this way, and instead of picking you up, I don't even meet an adventurer. What's going on? If I thought so, I saw the wall and was convinced. You're doomed by a flood of demon woods. Kingdom of Endalgia.

Beautiful white walls are repaired with stone around them, and Daisies' jaws are jammed.

Well, I think it would be nice to feel that this one is more alive than the white wall that I just stuck to to see.

When I was thinking about it, pun and featherworms flew over here.

A demon worm.

When I thought I finally picked you up after coming all this way to the end of my eyes and nose, Devil Worm.

What are you talking about? Whatever it is, it's rude, right? I thought I'd burn him to death a little bit, but this is an adult response. Ordinary mind, normal mind.

I'd be in trouble if they thought I was an enemy and couldn't get me inside the fence.

Maybe he'll be in there.

I can blow it up about the walls, but then it's mendacious, and if you don't give me the meat from the dragon sooner rather than later, I won't be able to make it to dinner. He may be eating awesome poor ministers living in poverty, even though he has arms. Carnivore.

So, a devil worm, but a friendly greeting to pick you up. I'll summon the friendlies to laugh and talk to the bug flair.

"I'm afraid you're welcome. Now, let me show you."

Even so, the demon worm flew high and high again.

What disrespect! When I looked around and thought I'd turn it into an ocean of fire with a whole range and burn it to death, Forest Wolf was massive. Wow.

Uh, so...

Why are you wanking around when you're so close to the city? Spread the exorcism potion regularly. He skipped work, didn't he? Oshioki, Oshioki.

In the meantime, I'll bake it because my wank is so loud.

"The Fire Columns Are Living."

Fire!

Shh. The city is just around the corner.

***

"Huh!!

"Bugs, what's wrong?"

Weishardt visits a worm that causes a cold sweat and stiffens his body.

"Distracted......"

"What is it?

Bug-fired demon bugs are used to explore the demonic labyrinth. At first glance, it looks like a normal bug, and the feathers are insignificant enough to blend in and act on the surrounding landscape. Otherwise, we can't do more than 50 levels of labyrinth exploration. That was seen through at first sight, etc….

"It's not your fault?

"I'm afraid…, he asked me to show him to my worm, so I was sure."

"And who are you?

"I thought it would be quicker to go in person," responded Weisshardt, asking him.
