Yomigaeri no Maou

Episode 124: Connections

Lulu and Romeo are on stage from the air, plus ancient dragons (enchanted dragons) that stare at Ias and kings.

The figure was a black monochrome, with terribly pointy fangs and nails on glossy, beautiful, sturdy looking scales.

And those eyes were golden, and the light reflected on the glittering magic lights (lights) to host a dreamy glow.

But if you look closely, you could feel madness, not beauty, in those eyes.

The eyes of a black dragon with thin blood vessels running through it like a river crossing a golden color are clearly unusual.

When he clearly confirmed that, Lulu decided to be ready to relate to that black dragon.

Then I checked because I was concerned about what was going on around me, and naturally the audience could confirm that they were getting out of the audience and running away to scatter the spider child exactly.

Many dignitaries who were on stage have already tried to escape, and Lulu gets a sense of relief when he sees it.

The dragons floating in the air are not particularly interested in them fleeing or there is no atmosphere to push them away and try to attack them.

If we could see such a thing, Lulu, or Iris, would have stopped immediately, but that was not necessary.

But after a while, I can see why.

"... Hey Lulu!!

At some point Gran, who had disappeared from the stage, told him to scream from the top of the audience.

Perhaps he ran to protect you with the audience's safety in mind.

I remember seeing behind it.

But that's what he's trying to say when he comes back.

Remember something odd about it. Lulu listened to his words.

Then Gran says.

"You can't get out of the arena! There's a line between the entrance and exit!! Probably an absolute barrier!

What surprised me about that word was not Lulu, but Lottos, one of the dignitaries still on stage.

He should have run, too, but I guess he felt the magic in the emergence of the Black Dragon and decided to be ready.

I feel a swirl of magic in his body.

I was definitely willing to fight.

But such information came into his ear as if the Ancients (elves) were inviting this to happen.

He opened his eyes and then headed towards the king who was on stage as well.

"Your Majesty! Our ancient tribe (elves)...!

If I make a mistake, no, in the presence of Griffiz, King of the Kingdom of Leonard, a situation had emerged here in which the ancient tribe (the elves) could receive great international condemnation.

But after understanding it, the king decided and said no doubt to the Ancients (Elves), adding his own intuition that this was not the case now, and that he had gained a friendship with the Ancients (Elves) during this Martial Arts Games.

"I understand, Lord Lottos! More than that, there are things we need to deal with now. Non is right, the king who can only be protected, he is shaking and hiding so that he will not be disturbed. Therefore, Lord Lottos would like his power to be fully utilized!!

In this situation, Lulu's smile leaked to the King, who even pinched a joke and said so.

The way it is said is subtle, but I guess you understood the intention that Lottos was not going to condemn the ancient tribe (elves) in particular either in that language.

The thread of trust, something like, seemed to be tied between the two of them, and I see, Lulu thought that this king might be a crowd.

But it is nevertheless a juncture.

I suppose that's what he who called that ancient black dragon (Enchanted Dragon) here meant that he wanted to kill all those in the arena.

Fighting tournaments were held, various dignitaries were called here, and most of them were coming because it was a closing ceremony.

If we can wipe out all those here, we will be able to inflict less blows on the Kingdom of Leonard and also on the surrounding countries.

I feel like I'm going to see who did this on their own, given what profits the mastermind gets from that.

This means that the mastermind of this plot is an organization or country hostile to the Kingdom of Leonard.

In addition to this, I feel that Lulu is almost intuitively the work of the Virgin, but then I don't know a little why.

The Kingdom of Leonard and the Holy Land of Arca are not separately hostile.

On the face of it, or from information that is well known to the general public, it should be in friendly relations.

Yet I didn't see the purpose of doing this to Lulu.

That said, it also seems problematic to think about that for too long.

Because I felt magic gathering down the throats of ancient dragons (enchanted dragons) floating in the air.

Lulu, who understood it, showed that he understood the story by waving at Gran, who was in the audience for now,

"Gran asks for the audience! We're gonna do something about this guy!

shouted.

It is Romeo, a knight of streamlined beauty, who peeled his eyes at the word, and Ias, a big man in contrast to it.

As far as they are concerned, they may have been planning to flee somewhere safe while protecting the king.

I guess what I've been here to date was expecting an ancient dragon (enchanted dragon) to head in the direction the other guests were headed.

Also, from asking Lulu to clean things up, it may have been that one of them was going to stay, but it only seemed to me that it was ready to die and not to take it down.

To corroborate that, of the two Kingsguard knights, the man with dark hair and an insensitive beard, Ias, ramblingly tells Lulu.

"Hey, you said lulu or something!?

Lulu responds to the word.

"Yes...... what is it?

You didn't see too much motivation in the atmosphere, Ias continued, looking at Lulu with a slightly surprised look.

"... you're willing to take that one down?

There is still a black dragon floating in Ias' looking up sky that is likely to release a breath (brace) from his throat.

Sounds like it's taking a little while, but that's a so-called hoard, and it doesn't look like I'm going to play with it or anything.

If you dare, I feel the will to wipe you out with no bones left.

Lulu responds with vigilance to the breath (brace) of an ancient dragon (enchanted dragon).

"Of course. You heard that earlier, didn't you? There's a line in the arena, and you can't get away with it. Obviously, there's no other way to survive than to defeat it."

"No, but! Can you do enough to destroy it with the power of an ancient tribe (elf) or an extraordinary adventurer?!?

That may not be impossible for sure......

Lulu thought so, but it was Lottos, not Lulu, who responded.

"I'm not saying we can't, but we need to know the location of the device that binds the ancient clan (elves) in order to stop the bond with its technology. To a place like this… If someone with a plan to call in ancient dragons (enchanted dragons) is abusing our device, there's no way we're going to know where it is right away"

"Now, if the Premium Adventurer or we gather our strength to attack at one point...!

Ias said so, as the name suggests, but also Lottos shook his head.

"During the martial arts tournament, the strength was weaker than the original for fear of a complete collapse of the device. The battle between Lord Lulu and Lord Illis broke down at a level that required major renovations, but if used only for about thirty minutes, no, an absolute barrier that is stronger than its original strength cannot be erected. It is an absolute barrier that should only be available to the ancient tribes (elves), but it is possible that they are also making such special modifications than how they are utilized to do so… then it should probably be difficult to destroy"

And I say things as if there was no hope.

I'm saying it like a guess, but I'm probably saying it with certainty.

I don't know if that's the reason for the question as to why we can handle absolute barriers that should only be available to the Ancients (elves), or about the strength of absolute barriers, but I can't help but ask the question here.

If you look at the sky, the accumulation of magic is ending.

An ancient dragon (enchanted dragon) jaw (afterwards) opened its torso and a blue light peered from the back of its throat.

"… Coming!

Lulu said so, urging those still on the arena stage to remain vigilant.

But there's not much they can do.

At best, it was as good as putting up a barrier with all its magic, and then the mountain of Sekiyama was enough to be prepared to be the shield of the meat of a dignitary nearby.

Remarkably, the Kingsguard knights of the Kingdom of Leonard seemed to be on the spot, starting with Romeo and Ias, standing in front of kings and dignitaries, preparing themselves to become shields, even if they could not defend the breath (braces) that the ancient dragons (enchanted dragons) would spit out at them at the barrier.

The guards and knights of other countries and organizations looked similar, but a few are quite splendid deeds to see that some escaped.

Because he was impressed with it, not to say, Lulu immediately began to knit enormous barriers, forming a terribly thick bond just between the ancient dragons in the air (enchanted dragons) and those on earth to protect everyone on the spot.

On its walls, like thick ice, which is built in moments, the earthly ones look open to Lulu.

For once, it's one of the skills I showed in the game with Illis, but unlike then, I guess I was stunned because the object to protect is dozens of times bigger because I'm not alone, but because I'm all those on stage.

Plus Lulu tried to expand it to the audience.

Because with the breath (braces) of ancient dragons (enchanted dragons) and other attacks, we thought that the arena building itself could not be allowed to collapse and damage the audience that would be beneath it.

But I hear someone thought the same way about Lulu.

Lulu stopped letting the junction stretch because there was already a huge junction stretched out on the audience side and nothing seemed to go wrong.

This is self-evident when it comes to who set such a line.

There is only one person on this occasion who can put this kind of thing up at a strength close to Lulu and also at a speed close to Lulu.

"... Illis, how long will it hold!?

When Lulu said so, Illis grinned uncomfortably.

"I can afford a day! My brother-in-law (who is here), please fight!

The meaning of the word, no matter who else knew, was self-evident to Lulu.

The junction, which would have a higher intensity than the absolute barrier strained by Illis, perhaps during the martial arts tournament, would prevent the breath (brace) of the ancient dragon (the enchanted dragon), but it means that more than that, you don't have to pass on something called the aftermath of the battle to the arena building.

From the immense mouth of the ancient dragon (Enchanted Dragon), the blue flames spewed out as Illis replied have melted the Lulu junction with the Illis junction and transmitted enormous roars and shocks to sharpen it again, but completely protect Lulu, Illis, those on the arena stage on earth, neither tense junction nor frightened.

"... those two are outrageous..."

Tell Ias standing next to him as Romeo groans.

Ias also raises eyebrows as he rarely stares at the blue flames of ancient dragons (enchanted dragons) who have come just before but never convey any enthusiasm or anything on this side.

"Oh, Lord Kadisnora's son is not a man... but he's been here before today. If it weren't for us... we'd be dead."

It's not like I have no feelings of fear at all.

When it comes to the breath of ancient dragons (enchanted dragons), there is nothing short of a calamity that cannot burn everything down.

I've never even heard of a being who can prevent it on his own.

But I could understand in my actions on this occasion that they are such people that they are good and spare no help for people.

Anyway, if we're only going to protect dignitaries, it's obvious that at least two people are willing to protect everyone on this scene, including the audience.

It may be a problem to interpret all of that as actions from good intentions, but Romeo and Ias both had a lot of confidence in their eyesight, by discerning the nature of those who could see it in an emergency.

Then, where the momentum of the breath (braces) of the ancient dragons (enchanted dragons) has become weaker, Lulu takes off the line and screams.

"Iris... now, I'm gonna shoot you! Bear it!"

Iris didn't ask what. There are enemies in the sky.

A normal attack may take some time as a matter of urgency.

And when it comes to the biggest and strongest attack for the body lulu of today's people (human)......

Iris immediately pours out all the magic he can to the junction when told, and begins to strengthen it.

And I felt magic begin to gather in Lulu's body, which confirmed it, and Iris was convinced of the victory.
