We Live in Dragon’s Peak

Duh, what do we do!?

Unexpectedly, he ran into Charlotte, and said he could get to the Kyouo Temple, where he couldn't get any clues.

This may be a great opportunity.

But I can't afford the time right now.

"And for now. There's Lyla in the outhouse, and Luiseine in the Wang capital, so at least we'll rendezvous with the two... Hopefully, the Mistrals..."

No, sir.

I have to pick up Lyla quickly and rendezvous with Louiseine as well. Otherwise, after I leave again, Mistral will be mad at me for "acting alone".

But Charlotte, who doesn't care about my family situation, smiled and activated the veto.

"To the Nine Tails Temple, I will guide you only, Ernea, and the tyrants. You said the fox warcraft, too, didn't you? Kyouo Temple is a place that must be kept secret."

"But..."

"Ho ho. It's okay. With a tyrant, you can go and come right back."

"What!?

I listen back half-heartedly to Charlotte's words.

"Wait a minute. Kyouo Temple is a place where something is sealed by an evil demon clan!?

I look far west. [M]

More than the Demon Nation is sealed, the Nine Tails Temple should be somewhere in the Demon Nation.

But the demon-dominated nations crossed two kingdoms of the people from here on, beyond the rugged Dragon Peak. No matter how much Leveria's ability to fly is better than any other flying dragon, isn't that just too far?

To my question, Charlotte laughs ridiculously.

"Ernea, you've gained a lot of knowledge about the Demons, but you haven't. Haven't you heard of it from His Majesty and others? The Demons used to spread their prints further east than they do now."

"Oh, speaking of which, it's like the Demon King told me"

The Titan Demon King teaches us all sorts of things. Probably evil knowledge, but sometimes you tell me old stories.

And you were taught a little bit of old history about the land east of Dragon Peak.

"I am impressed by what happened not long after I was born. Oh, by the way, though. I was born long after His Majesty's birth. Back then, not only around here, but east of Dragon Peak was almost ruled by demons."

"I also asked the Demon King. But why are you now interested in the country west of Dragon Peak?

"Because the divine tribe drove me."

"Oh my God!"

Charlotte says.

Long ago.

The golden demon tribe that dyed heaven to gold, certainly existed.

As a "golden lord," that devil tribe, who was brutally incomparable, was feared not only by the same devil tribe, but also by the Divine tribe, etc.

At the time, the Demons were still not the kind of ruling system they are now.

The Demon King, the absolute ruler, was at the apex, bringing together all the Demons in a strong way. The Demon King is alone, and the country is one. That was the demonic society at the time.

By the way, in light of what I heard from the Demon King before.

Back then, or even more so. Before Charlotte was born too. The Demon King, who had long ruled the Demon Nation, was defeated by the present "true ruler of the Demon Nation" as an obstacle.

After that, "true rulers" seemed to reign for a time as demon kings.

But one time, you, the golden one, ravaged the kingdom of the demons.

Overwhelming magic burned down cities and capitals, and countless demonic tribes were sacrificed.

The Demon King has issued a decree to the nine demon generals under his command to deal with the whole army, just as he would crusade the golden one.

He said it was a battle to build a mountain of corpses.

Many powerful demons fell and the demons were exhausted. Still, I managed to defeat you golden.

"If there were any books or anything left at the time, it would say I did knock them down. But the truth is, they're still alive just because they're sealed."

Charlotte spoke with a smile, but I was listening with my spine relaxed.

The Demons are in a bunch to fight, but they just sealed it without defeating it...

"Maybe you're stronger than the true ruler of the Demon Clan?

"That's not true."

Charlotte says it's obvious.

"In the first place, I think it would have been quicker if he had come out from the beginning, when he had taken serious control of the Demon Nation as the Demon King."

"No way...... That child, the true ruler and the red toddler, did not join your crusade of gold?

"Yes, you were observed in the Devil's City. So the gods invaded the kingdom of the demons exhausted by your crusade in gold. While he was being driven west, he may have had trouble running the country. No, maybe the golden one didn't move himself because it was a hassle before you showed up"

What a lazy ruler......

"By the way, one of the nine demon generals of the time was you."

"I heard it from the demon king himself, and I knew it"

I listened to Charlotte's old story and learned a lot about the past.

And they notice things.

Why were the demon swordsmen who raided the outhouse equipped with the old weapons of the demon clan, namely those of the Nine Demons General?

Perhaps the Nine Demons were also taken away while the Demons were being driven west, leaving relics east of Dragon Peak.

And the place where the temple is located also means the eastern side of Dragon Peak.

We were thinking about things in our current demonic prints. Therefore, I have assumed on my own that the temple of Kyouo is also west of Dragon Peak.

But if you deduce from Charlotte's story, that's a mistake.

The Nine Tails Temple undoubtedly exists on the eastern side of Dragon Peak.

"By the way. The true ruler of the Demon Clan was stronger than you in gold, wasn't he? Yet being driven by the Divine Clan means that the Divine Clan has a stronger person...?

Sakuri.

To my question, Charlotte laughs cheerfully.

"Nor is that. I told you. He's getting tired of it. To rule the Demons."

"So you fled while being chased by the Divine Clan?

"Is there a story that I ran away? Somebody stop the invasion of the gods, to be exact. Is it correct that it was the policy to deposit the country with those who could? It will be the demon kings of a new era."

I see. I'm somewhat convinced to hear about the formation of the demonic kingdom.

There's a complicated historical background, and it makes me think that there is one now.

"But that's where I doubt it. The gods drove the demons all the way west of Dragon Peak, and now they don't control this area, do they? Why?"

The Divine Clan should have attacked to eradicate the softly exhausted Demon Clan.

I think it was a massive war.

The Divine Nation must have lost a lot of victims, too.

Yet there is no shadow of the divine tribe in the land that I have taken because of it.

To my doubt, Charlotte laughs even happily.

"That's, you see. At the time, the gods used the forbidden technique."

"Oh......"

You don't have to tell me the rest.

Really? Are you a witch?

The overdone Divine Clan was heavenly punished by the witch, wasn't it?

"On the part of the Divine Nation, too, you were damaged by the golden one, and there were many victims in years of strife with the Demons. There, it is the aftermath of a witch breaking the ban. The empire of God was doomed."

"The Demons were driven west, too, and the world was in turmoil because of your disturbance in gold."

That, the culprit who disturbed the world may be about to be resurrected.

Did Bartonoir know the history of the Demons and Divine Clans and put his hands on the Nine Tails Temple?

If you know and interfere, you can never overlook it.

"But I can't believe the Demons also had times of predicament, or a past that ruled this neighborhood"

"Oh ho ho. Whether you are a Demon or a Divine, prosperity is a must. The Divine Clan is about to be destroyed by the Demons again and again, and vice versa. Isn't that fun?"

"No, I think stability is best!

This guy.

Must smile and fight back, even if the Divine Nation has now attacked the Demonic Nation.

And whether it's an enemy or an ally, I guess I look forward to seeing the world happily on a built corpse.

That's the right arm of a giant demon king.

"That's why. We are now heading to the Nine Tails Temple. Please give me a ride."

Say it, Charlotte jumped on without getting forgiveness from Levaria.

Revalia growls in dissatisfaction.

"Yep. How many days does it take to get back and forth?

"If it was the tyrant's speed, I thought it wouldn't take two days?

Lyla, Louiseine, I'm sorry!

I jump on Levaria's back, too.

When I get back, I'll report a lot!

Or because we don't have the right to veto!

So if you're unhappy, if you persuade Revaria somehow, we traveled.

I had expected it, but I hear the Kyouo Temple is further east of the Great Forest.

On Revaria's back, Charlotte gives instructions.

Jump over the deep woods inhabited by the Ear Elders and enter the wilderness.

The earth is a lean, thin, poor land, as the Giants were talking about.

"Maybe... Is it because the Demons used to rule even though this area is barren land?

"With a curse, do you want to say"

"Yes!"

It's about the Demons. You're putting an annoying curse on the land you're leaving, aren't you?

To my doubt, but Charlotte shook her head sideways.

"It is the original. This neighborhood has long been a lean and thin land. That is why, until earlier, the forest was enriched by His Majesty's feat. If His Majesty isn't attentive, there's not even a forest."

"The parent of the Great Forest Growing was the Demon King of the Giants!

To unexpected information, I don't know.

A giant demon king doesn't look like a demon, even though he's a demon.

Be nice to us, or grow forests long ago to improve lean land.

"Bye. You know why there are so many demons on the west side of the Great Forest?

"Yes. It is His Majesty's curse. He said," What will give the Gods the forests that they have raised? "

"This was also the work of the Titan's Demon King!

That's right.

Around here, a long time ago, the Demon King of the Titans managed it.

He said he was one of the Nine Demons, but maybe the jurisdiction was around here.

Even as I turned my back on Charlotte's shock story, Levaria kept flying with all her might.

I'm sure you want to unload Charlotte soon.

But no matter how far you fly, all you see is the wilderness.

On the way, I witnessed several times what looked like a colony of giants.

I wasn't sure from above, but it looked like I was living using nature like an animal, not the life of building a fine house like a man or a demon to create a village or a town.

"Is the wilderness going on forever? If the Demons were so desolate when they ruled, wouldn't life have been hard?

Now, the Titans are struggling.

"Ho ho. Shall I call that a difference in national power? The demonic kingdom was so great and rich at the time, since some areas had luxurious supplies flowing from elsewhere, even in the wilderness. Oh, tyrant. Change direction towards that mountain over there."

"Shit."

In the wilderness that runs everywhere, there are ups and downs.

Charlotte showing the rough mountain skinned mountainous areas found in the southeast.

Revaria takes the airway as she was told, even as she openly pounds her tongue.

"Please go south from there"

"Next, along that river over there"

"I can see the woods. Slow down and head for the woods."

"Yes, in the valley there."

"Towards that mountain over there"

Charlotte's instructions fly fine. Each time the landscape gradually changed from wilderness to untapped forest.

And when the sun should go down, too.

Finally, we got to where we were. [M]

Especially the woods surrounded by mountains, without any change of philosophy.

Clear your ears, you'll hear the birds chirp, or the creek spiral.

Even if it passes through the sky, it is likely to pass unconsciously, without paying attention to uncharacteristic forests. Even if you're traveling on the ground, it's not like stopping by on purpose.

In such an unspoiled landscape, a small company was built.

The old columns are rotten and broken, and the slanted roofs are tilted.

Still, there are only a few offerings in front of the company.

"I heard that Kyouo Temple is in a hidden place, but the fact that you have an offering means that someone lives nearby?

"Maybe there's a settlement. But no one will ever know that this is a temple dedicated to you, the golden one."

"I see. The locals are somewhat dedicated because this is an old building."

When it feels like I saw it, it doesn't even look like a small temple.

Does that mean that the person who made the offering is a human race?

"Oh, and who is it!?

When I looked seriously at the old company, I was suddenly called out from behind.

Looking back, a woman dressed in a costume similar to a witch's costume stared at us with a sword.
