Yomigaeri no Maou

Episode 89: Recovery and Marquis House

"You almost seem to be burning in flames or dissolving in heat..."

That's what Ortez said when he fished through the room looking for some machinery that still worked.

Probably Bernfleet's brought in equipment, all of which have been burned and melted again by his unleashed inflammatory magic.

If you think about it and let go of that magic, you can say that the Lulu's have been totally outdone.

And I could say that the likelihood is quite high from that spare tone.

Nevertheless, the thing of retrieval occurs nonetheless.

Not all the equipment had gone bad, and we could also discover what was in the shadow of each device and some moving items where the flames didn't happen to go well.

"If you take this, for now, the request has been accomplished, does that mean?

That's what Rusty squeals as he gathers and looks at the machinery that lays in the center of the room.

They're all little things.

Apparently, many large machines that made up the majority of the room were delicate, and everything was broken.

There were circumstances where thinking about hauling it out didn't mean you could choose what you said.

It is understandable that there are several items layered in front of us that even with the knowledge of Lulu can not understand their use, and are of a different system from the ancient demonic technology.

I don't know if that is modern proprietary, or if it has any relation to ancient demonic techniques.

However, I know they use very advanced technology, and if you tell me the fact that this stuff was installed in large quantities in the mine, it would be a very odd thing, and it would likely be the cause of the demons' outbreak.

"Ma'am, the Bernfleet that was actually producing the demons has disappeared, so it won't prove anything for sure... but if you tell the Adventurers Union (Guild), they'll do a tracking investigation. I know it'll take a while, but I think we'll get paid if we know for sure that no more demons have occurred."

Think about it for a second, that's what Morgan said.

That would be greatly appreciated.

Anyway, if you don't get paid for this, Lulu and the others are in a huge deficit.

"... but it won't take long."

We must return to the King's Capital as soon as we report.

You can't tell Zepheha you're staying until we have the results of the investigation.

I was so worried about Lulu's dialogue, but Ortes shook his head and explained it to me.

"No, you don't have to worry about that. I don't have to stay in Zepheha until I get my findings. If the investigation proves that Bernfleet was responsible, you will be paid even if you are in King's Capital. Any Adventurer's Union (Alliance) is supposed to reward you. Of course, there may be a lot to ask of us, so maybe we should stay if we can... but I can't help it this time. If you need anything, just tell the Adventurers' Union (Guild) to respond to what you said in the King's Capital."

Like that.

After all, Ortes seemed like a veteran adventurer, and it was one thing that impressed me that I couldn't rely heavily on in this sort of thing.

Then, stick the collected machinery into Lulu's bag.

Because it was meant to spread the mouth, it was possible to put in a large part of the product.

Seeing that, Morgan was a little surprised, but it seemed that there were a few similar things in the church, and in time he wanted them too, as much as he said.

I don't know if that's from the excavation of ancient demon products or created by proprietary technology, but he also said it wouldn't be possible for a while because it seems to be very valuable and not so readily available.

Then, Lulu and the others walked around the mine for a little while, and misjudged the demons who were still alive.

There was no reason to take it all down, but we focused on crushing the powerful, so if we make a request for a demonic crusade here a few times in the future, we'll be able to get the mine up and running without any problems.

Then Lulu and the others left the mine and went to the cabin where Rymond was.

Morgan was tilting his neck, but was immediately convinced when he told him that he was collecting the miners' artifacts along the way.

I don't need to come by anything else, and I don't mind breaking up here, I went, but Lulu convinces me that it won't make sense because we'll be in the carriage together until Zepheha anyway.

It's a carriage that comes or doesn't come a few times a day.

Inevitably, it is decided to take the same carriage.

As soon as I slapped Lymond's cabin, the bearded man came out and looked at the Lulu's and laughed.

I tilted my neck wondering what was going on, he said.

"I was wondering if maybe you guys would come home, too. I'm so glad to see your cheerful face like this... and even the clergyman"

Rymond looked surprised when he saw Morgan's face, so Morgan bowed his head and said.

"Looks like you were even worried about me...... thank you"

"No, no. That's okay. I'm surprised the woman is going to that demonic lair by herself... if only she was back.... So, what do you mean you're back...?

With a slightly anticipated look, Rymond saw the Lulu's.

To the word, the four nodded and expressed their affirmation.

Lymond rejoiced in it, and when he handed over the miner's artifacts that the Lulu's and the others had collected, every single one of them rejoiced in his hands.

"... this is Norris's... this is Gadder... this is..."

With that said, I guess Rymond was a good miner head around firmly discerning who he was.

If you ask me, it seems that the families of those who died in the mine have been paid enough condolences, which is the result of Rymond's entrustment to the Marquis of Baraxeno, the owner of this mine.

I guess the Marquis Baraxeno himself is not a bad person because he offered a good amount of condolences by showing a deep understanding of Rymond's wishes for the sake of his nobility.

If the cause of the demon outbreak was found, he was told to report it to the Adventurers' Union (Alliance) or the Marquis of Baraxeno, but this might be a good idea to go to the person to report it.

That's what I thought, and I asked Rymond about that personality.

"Oh... that guy is quite a person. My parents are early, so I've had a tough time with them. Besides, I have a mine, so I've had to put the miners together since I could say they're pretty young... no, they're young. You've been through a lot."

From the way I put it, I could understand that Rymond had a pretty long relationship with the Marquis of Baraxeno.

That's what Lulu asks, Rymond says.

"Right. I've been saying this for a long time, or I've been a miner since that man stood up to the Marquis. Don't be a long relationship, if you say so. Even so... ten years or so"

Rymond is around forty, according to his appearance.

I mean, since I was about thirty?

Long if you say it, long, short if you say it.

Rymond continues.

"So I know what he's like. I don't look down at civilians like a strange nobleman, and whatever human story you're talking about, you listen to me firmly if you feel it's necessary. That's who I'm talking about. So if you say you'll report back at the mine and visit, you'll be welcome, and you'll treat it right."

When it comes to being appreciated so far, I wonder what the hell kind of person he is.

I could have either reported it to the Adventurers' Union (Guild) or to the Marquis of Baraxeno, but Lulu wanted to report it to the Marquis.

So when you tell the other three about it,

"I don't mind anything, even if they're too welcoming. We have to get back to King's Landing by tomorrow's game."

That's what Ortes said.

Then Morgan,

"Oh, we all had fighting competitions. It's okay, isn't it? If they tell you to stay because you need more explanations, I'll stay, okay?

That's what I said.

She's not in a martial arts tournament, and she says it doesn't matter.

In fact, it was a thankful offer, and then it was a favor to ask.

Then he said goodbye to Rymond, boarded a carriage that came before the mine, and returned to Zepheha.

I was in the mine for quite a while, so the sun is setting.

I can't take very long considering I have to finish the report that way and catch a night carriage to Wangdu.

Hurry to find the Marquis of Baraxeno's mansion, and when he reached it, he informed the two gatekeepers standing in front of the large gate that he had resolved the request for the demonic occurrence of the Asuos mine.

As evidence, one gatekeeper ran inside the mansion to confirm when he handed the requisition issued by the Adventurers' Union (Guild).

After a while, the gatekeeper returns.

And he said.

"I did check. The Marquis of Baraxeno is going to see you. Please go inside. And please forgive me if the weapon will be kept at the entrance."

It would be a natural consideration, given that the Marquis's body is in danger when he is pushed inside with a weapon.

That said, it would be a pointless measure for adventurers who can fight without weapons or anything, but there would be manpower in the mansion that could counteract the existence that said so.

That's even pointless for outside standards like Lulu and Morgan, but it would be cruel to seek that far.

At the entrance, all four keep their weapons with adultery.

However, there was a slight problem with the Great Sword lowered to Morgan's waist.

As Morgan took it off his hips and tried to hand it to the gatekeeper at the entrance, the moment Morgan's hand was removed from the sword and the Great Sword was entrusted to the gatekeeper, the gatekeeper was stitched up thoughtfully on the ground.

"Oh, heavy..."

I guess it was self-evident to Morgan that it would be very dangerous to leave it there.

Immediately retrieve the Great Sword from the Gatekeeper's hand,

"Are you all right?

And I almost smiled.

The smile was beautiful and the gatekeeper was about to be spotted for a moment, but he just remembered what had happened to him, and asked as a haha.

"Well... it's about Lord Morgan's sword...?

The names are all already named when I give them the request form.

Morgan nodded and answered the question.

"Oh... I know I'm sorry. In fact, the sword, it's something special for personal use, and it's a weight that the average person can't hold, although it's very unusual."

As the person with it, it would be self-evident that Morgan has no lies in that word.

By the way, the gatekeeper asked further.

"What the hell is that great sword, how many kilometers...?

To that question, Morgan thinks a little before saying.

"Right...... I've never weighed it clearly, but I think it's over a hundred kilometers. It doesn't weigh as much as three adult males."

I just wanted to ask how you weighed in for three adult men, but I didn't think the fun answer to asking didn't seem to come back, and the gatekeeper looked stunned, then pulled that face right in, and then...

"Oh well... but then, I won't keep it, so if you can, you can leave it there"

That's what I said according to my professional consciousness.

At the location indicated by the gatekeeper, the weapons given by the Lulu men are erected.

I guess Morgan's sword was also meant to be erected there by the gatekeeper, but that means he refused to do it himself because it was too heavy.

Morgan smiled and nodded calmly at the words, not putting up a great sword, but laying it beside the ground near the sword of the Lulu's.

If you stand up, it may scratch the wall, I guess it's a consideration for that.

Nevertheless, there is not enough emotion left in the gatekeeper to admire such consideration, just a stunned look at Morgan, who manipulates the sword lightly of its weight.

"Oh, thank you...... well, please go inside"

That's what I said.
