Yomigaeri no Maou

Episode 202: I recognize you.

The last thing that guided Barbara and the others as the sun approached was the church.

Church of the Final.

It is a place of indescribable memories for Lulu and Illis.

Stone sturdy buildings are furnished with qualitative fixtures.

The stained glass colour is the only bright colour that can be said to be on the spot......

No, was there another one?

Stone statues coloured in extreme colors installed in front of stained glass.

I've missed my friend so many times.

"... Bacchus"

There should have been a church of the same religion in the Wang capital, so if he had gone there, he would have had the same thing, but Lulu never turned his foot there.

If you ask me why, I can't answer, but if I insist, is that why I say that if I actually see this statue decorated no matter what city I go to church in, I might blow it out?

"This is a religious institution for people, isn't it? I hear people pray and believe in all sorts of things... does this mean they are more of a believer here"

Barbara looked up at the statue of Bacchus and said:

To that word, Illis answers.

"Previously, I heard from the clergy of this Church that one of the saints, seems to mean, so one of the subjects of faith, I guess..."

The emotions that dwell on that expression, while they seem to speak faintly of the facts, seem to be those of an irresistible giving up.

If you see your father being festived like this without knowing the exact reason, it would also be such a look.

"I see... you are"

Barbara nods, then looks at the statue again.

And then lean your neck,

…… I think you look familiar... "

and so on, so Illis said.

"Such an idiot...... from what I hear, this one is so old that it's not advantageous in a thousand years. I can't tell you how long Mr. Barbara's been alive, but you've never met him before."

"Hmmm... right... but I feel like I saw it somewhere..."

Barbara keeping her neck tilted.

But the word of Illis is precisely that of those who lived in those days.

It's actually a man thousands of years old, so even if Barbara is an ancient dragon (enchanted dragon), she can't possibly see him.

That's what should be right.

Normally.

But Lulu, Iris, and Zoe knew all two events to be called exceptions.

One thing happened to Lulu.

It is a timeless reincarnation.

And the other is that Iris and Zoe experienced it with their own.

It's a way to go beyond time with long-term sleep.

Lulu and Iris, and Zoe figured it out, face to face.

Maybe Bacchus is in this day and age.

Because that's what I've been feeling.

And if so, isn't he the one who knows what it is?

At least, if you stop by what Morgan, the cleric of this church, was saying, it seems that Bacchus lived at least to the point where he "saved the world”.

It was once a story about the world being saved with the crusade of the demon king Lulusria-Nord, but I know that's not right for Lulu and Illis, who know the past.

At that point, nothing was saved, rather because Illis and Zoe told us that the confusion had called for chaos and the world had been bisected, and that they had only begun to devastate.

Then the war that would have lasted for a while, its end, or some form of reconciliation, is the salvation of the world, isn't it?

Lulu and Iris, and Zoe, from fragments of past memories, had such predictions.

And if Bacchus is being sacrificed as the one who saved the world, it means he lived and kept his memory until that moment.

I don't care if it's reincarnation or long-term sleep, but if he's in this day and age, it shouldn't be a mistake to assume that he knows a lot more and a lot more than the three demons here today.

We need to find him.

If there is any chance of being in this age.

The three people who thought so decided to ask if they could hear anything from Barbara.

"Maybe you've seen someone similar. By the way, do you remember where you saw it?

If Illis asks Barbara that, she said.

"Right...... I think I told you that I now have a Negijo near the lake bottom city, but going west from there for a while, there is a nation (human) named Krisansee, the Demon Empire, did you know?

It is one of the many countries that did not exist in the past but were able to do so at some point in time after becoming modern.

It is said that research has been carried out at a very high level on magic technology and that many are manufactured to such an extent that it is almost possible to say magic guidance machines, especially when it comes to magic implements.

There's actually a distance from Leonard, and also, Chrisansee's magic equipment comes into Leonard, but I've never seen anything that could even be called a magic guide machine, and Lulu thinks it's probably a rumor or or something like that that that's circulating in a glorious way.

I don't feel like I can feel a strong vanity about my magic technique in the name of the "Magic Leader" empire itself, but when I start to say that much, I may become obsessed with boulders.

Anyway, I know the country name itself, so the Lulu's snorted.

"For a reason, I've been into that Chrysancé... and that's when"

That's what Barbara said.

◆ ◇ ◆ ◇ ◆

Reason, I told Lulu and the others, they would actually say it's not that big of a deal.

The reason Barbara deliberately turned her foot to Crisanse was because she heard that there were some very tasty fruits in the woods located to the east of it.

Barbara is rooted in the lake bottom city itself, rather than in the mountains that exist in such a way as to surround the lake bottom city, which itself is also dominated by another demon.

The demon is very knowledgeable even from Barbara's eyes, and unlike Barbara, he knows more about the reality of people everywhere.

Such demons are occasional tea drinkers.

Of course, it wasn't Barbara who made the tea, it was the demon.

Tea utensils seemed to be purchased from somewhere as well, and they would get their residence in order to welcome Barbara, as people would, but there were occasional arguments in the frequent chatter.

For example, it could have been an interpretation of an incident that had occurred in history, or a reflection on the composition of witchcraft.

Among other things, we sometimes exchanged information about things we didn't know about each other, but Barbara's favorite story about that demon was mainly about food everywhere.

As you can see from listening, there are verses where the demons interact with people without revealing that they are demons, and they also seem to often go to people's cities, and they are familiar with the stories they said.

When Barbara heard about that, she didn't want to go to people's cities, but suddenly she was weighing herself in thinking that people would be annoying to come to ancient dragons (enchanted dragons).

If we humanize it, maybe we don't have a problem, but people seem to need something called ID cards, and I thought saying that we don't intrude on each other's territory as much as we can would be a courtesy for each other to do well.

Occasionally an adventurer comes and knocks it down and eats something magical.

That's how involved we should be, he said.

In response to such Barbara, the demon didn't have to be so serious about anything, I insisted that I go to a people's city once, but I spent a long time without getting too pretentious.

I feel sorry for Barbara like that, and the demon called Barbara to his own (gnaw), and when he served tea, he often offered a treat with him.

It explained a lot about what I've been purchasing in people's realms, or what I made, but I remember they were all delicious.

The demon told me one day.

At that time, there were a number of plates lined up on the table, with various fruits lined up on them.

Then the demon says to Barbara, who looks happy with an apple in his mouth.

"... If it's that good, you should buy it yourself... People aren't that scared, are they?

The demon, wrapped in a black robe and emitting a dark aura, looks terrible because his eyes glow and see.

However, Barbara is not as fearful as the demon looks, and she is particularly fearful because she knows very well that her nature is calm.

Barbara says.

"Bebe, I'm not scared of anything else! I just... just want to avoid scaring people or getting into confusion..."

"It's on, Barbara... well, good. By the way, I tried to trimmer the tea treats today with the fruit, how about that?

"Yeah, I really liked it. Because not much fruit is raw in the woods around the lake bottom city...... It's fresh because there are few opportunities to put different fruits in your mouth like this."

The word is seriousness without a multiplication.

Because it is not an exaggeration to say that fruits lined up on the table have been gathered everywhere, from south to north.

It would be difficult to say how powerful a demon it is to collect this.

No, it's more of a demon, so you can't rely on distribution like a person, so you need to go get it yourself.

The demons in front of us are, in that sense, a few exceptions, which I guess we have relied on for the circulation of people to gather, but are something that no ordinary demon can do.

At least, that's why I was thankful for not being able to stand up to Barbara.

To Barbara's words, the demon,

"Oh, good for you. No... but there was supposed to be another dish here, lined up, but that's all they collected in the end. I feel a little sorry for you."

That's how I answered.

They collected all this, and they weren't satisfied yet.

No, from the way I put it, does it feel like the original goal could not be achieved?

Barbara asked, wondering what it was like to say what it was supposed to be.

"I said another dish, is that fruit too?

"That's right. To the west...... there will be a nation of people (humans), the Demonic Empire Chrysancé. There is a forest in the eastern part of the country that is very uncomfortable for those who call it the Heat-dense Forest (Rihalatka Zounkla), but behind that forest is the illusory fruit that is said to never grow anywhere but there. I was going to buy that, because the merchant I was imploring got critical of the due date and said I couldn't... it's not here. Well, originally, I had no choice because they said it might not be possible..."

That demon that I'm sorry to say.

Barbara asks concerned.

"Are those phantom fruits, and are they still delicious?

To Barbara's question, the demon nodded,

"That's right. I've only eaten once, too, but I can't say enough about the swinging sweetness and the fluffy fragrance that spreads through my nose at the moment of twitching, which was certainly a delicacy that would make me snort if I wanted to even if I was told it was an illusion. It's just... it still seems to be tough inside for people (human beings) to pick up a place called Heat Disease Dense Forest (Rihalatka Zounkla) just for the place. Infectious diseases. Parasites. They seem to be trekking horribly, and it's hard to get in and come home safely. That's about it at best, letting slaves go or when an adventurer who's too confident feels like it. It seems impossible to get it planned."

"Then... we're demons, so if we go directly, don't we get it?

To this dialogue of Barbara that I came up with, the demon says.

"I'm sure that's true...... think about it and see. I have a role to play in protecting the lake bottom city. Anyway, if it's enough to head out to the nearby city and have a little fun. It's too far from the boulders to travel to the West. I'm worried about you... Hmm. With that said, you had wings. Just fine, I'll protect your Negijo instead. I have a friend here too. So... are you coming? Barbara."

That's what the demon said, and he laughed.

As I've been thinking for a long time, thank you. This demon has a verse that discerns Barbara.

I have been careful not to put it on the table that there is no eye for food, but it was noticed at some point.

Even this time, Barbara wants to eat that illusory fruit, which seems to find out.

Barbara, who thought there would be no point in shaking her head here beside her, decided to accept the demonic care and go to the fever forest (Rihalatka Zounkla).
