113 Episode 113 "I tried to protect myself on a big picture to prevent the attack of monsters".txt (2/2)
”The equivalent of a nobleman, whose name will live in legend?
............ Yeah.
''Plus, if you get the saint's inheritance and capture the Heavenly Dragon's representative, you'll get a bonus, maybe a legendary weapon or magic?''
............ Well, well. It's the slaves that get it, though.
Oh, yeah, that's great.
I said as I shielded Aine and the others behind me.
'You mean there's a guild for brave people like that? I'm sure there's more than a human being acting as a guild master.''
What do you know about ......?
'Why shouldn't I know? If this one really is the 'Delegate of the Heavenly Dragon'.
That's a lie.
I'm just piecing together what I've learned so far and throwing in a few random bites.
”I know there is a guild that pretends to support the nobility, but they have other goals. They want to erase the existence of the 'old blood' from history. Perhaps as a replacement for it...
Maybe they are trying to use the brave men they summoned from another world.
As a tool to strengthen the control of the king and nobles.
''──I don't like the way he's doing it. Or rather, I want it to be done somewhere far away from here.
I don't give a shit what you think. I don't give a shit what you think.
Fenrir-Laguna's lips twitched and he laughed.
'And you're wrong about one thing. It's only temporary when a nobleman is on top.'
Eventually?
You know. The Way of the Brave is only visible to those who walk it.
...... is awesome.
It takes some sacrifice to do so: ......
...... That's a lot of work.
We, the 'White Guild,' can be found at .......
...... I'll be in touch.
You! You're mocking me, aren't you?
'No, if you're going to call it ”The Way of the Brave”, I wanted you to beat Hydra.
Hmm. I'm not in the same world as you guys.
...... I see.
This guy is, in other words, working to make him an assistant to the nobility and to destroy and recover the legacy of the 'old blood'. What does it matter what else is going on? Even if the town is destroyed and people are eaten by Hydra.
''You're the one who's bothering us, why?''
Fenrir-Laguna said.
''Since it's called the 'Delegate of the Heavenly Dragon,' I thought you were more of a divine being. But, you know, I think you're just a human being. You're just wandering around in the dark, hiding your face with a hood. Why is it that you're imitating this?
............
Once again, I am troubled by these remarks.
The only reason we're disturbing the nobility is because...
I don't like it. And because it's raining.
Huh?
Huh? I think it's important.
'If Hydra breaks down the walls, we'll have to run away in the rain, won't we? It's cold and the carriage is hard to get going ...... and I'd love to see everyone's clothes show through it, but it would be stupid to bother with the cold. So I needed to let the adventurers and the townspeople know about the hydra. We needed to tell them what it was all about and bring everyone together.
I said.
”That's all you can think of. I'm not really interested in the world or heroes or anything like that.
Another thing is that the saintly woman felt responsible.
She probably knows that Cecile is a demon, so she didn't tell us. She also gave me her wand to help me pay back my demonic heritage. I'd like to repay the debt.
”............ All right. You're dead.
”Is that the conclusion of a 'brave man's path'?
I wielded the magic sword.
I can't reach it. Of course it's natural. You have to be as fancy as possible.
Sprinkle water, make noise, hide the work we're doing behind...
'It's useless! Go! 'Things to chew up' and 'things to tear apart'!
”GUAAAAAAAAAAA!
The two wolves screamed.
The red wolf rushes forward with its jaws and the black wolf with its claws growing huge.
I recheck the plan behind me.
Everyone is gathered around Raphilia. They're all in line and giving a thumbs up.
They look ready.
”GUAAAAAAAAAAAA!
The wolves come closer, kicking the water. Fenrir-Laguna is laughing.
Then this one is timed to coincide with the timing, seh.
「「「「 ”Activate ”Anti-Magic Warding (Taima Kekkai) Lv 1” 」」」」
We got down on the ground in unison (・・・・・・).
And then...
I'm sorry!
A magical barrier wrapped around us and bounced off the wolves' rush.
'──── What's that?'
Yeah. I suppose it's no wonder the enemy is so surprised.
That's the magic circle they put under our feet, it's glowing. That's where the barrier comes from.
Specifically, it's me, Cecil, Aine, Iris, and Rafilia lying face down on a sheet with a magic circle on it. The barrier is a collection of five people's magical power.
We knew the enemy was a wolf user, so we prepared it at home beforehand.
I drew a magic circle on the sheets and put it in Aine's storage skills.
This time, I 'fast rebuilt' three skills to kill Hydra and counter visitors.
'Truth Confession LV1'
A magician's spell to block out the lies.
”Creeping Defense, Lv 1
The skill of getting down on the ground and defending yourself.
Summoning Demons, Lv 5
The skill of ”calling” the ”associated demon” with ”body parts
This Anti-Demon Conjunction LV1 is a rewrite of Rock Lizard's Creeping Defense, with a twist.
Fiendish Containment Lv 1 (4 Concept Cheat Skills)
The skill to ”lie face down” in the magic circle and ”protect” yourself from ”associated demons”.
This skill creates a barrier by 'laying down' on a magic circle with the demon's form written on it.
The monsters (or symbols) written on the magic circle cannot break through the barrier.
By the way, what is written on the magic circle is a 'Beware of the rabid dog' like symbol. I coached it and Rafilia wrote it. It's quite a masterpiece.
I'll be d*mned! Gua! GUAAAA!!!!
The area around the table. Member of the committee. Gentlemen!
The wolf-shaped messenger is attacking repeatedly.
But it doesn't get through.
This is a 4 concept cheat skill.
In addition, it's a target-only pinpoint skill, so it's terrifyingly hard.
'What's the matter? The Way of the Brave.
...... goo.
Fenrir-Laguna looked at us in frustration.
'This, this can't be! I'm a brave man and this is what I am!
I suggest you give up and go kill Hydra. I don't want to waste my time here.
Shut up! Wolves, you can have all my magic! Break that d*mn barrier!
''GUOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOAAAAA!''
A red, a blue and a black wolf howled.
Three of them came straight to the barrier.
The translucent barrier creaked and shook.
I'm sure you'll be able to find it. It's amazing.
You! You know how...?
Yeah. I think we know what we need to know.
This guy is backed by the White Guild. They want to collect the heritage of the Old Blood or destroy it. In order to do so, they don't hesitate to destroy towns and villages.
The reward for this is ”The Way of the Brave” - something for the brave to become like a nobleman, it seems.
Thank you for teaching me so much. Then release ”Delayed Combat (Delayed Arts) Lv 1”.

The gigantic Magic Sword Reggie penetrated the barrier from within.
''GYAAAAAAAAAAAA!!!''
The black blade of the demon sword summed up the three wolves and split them into two.
The wolves that were cut off from their bodies evaporated and disappeared.
'Wha, what the hell is that?
Fenrir-Laguna exclaimed.
'...... I can see why your enemies are so angry, boy. It's a cheating machine. ......'
...... I'm not so sure.
I've made a good case to the saint, haven't I?
He said this is a skill that only prevents (・・・・・・) attacks from the demons (・・・・・・) written on the magic circle.
The attacks of other demons can pass normally, so of course they can pass from the inside as well.
This isn't the end of the story .......
Fenrir-Laguna barked.
'...... eh. You still do ......?
'I can make a few more of them! Come on, wolves!
Smaller wolves appear around him than before.
How about it? This is the power of one who follows the path of the brave.
It's light in color and not very strong to look at.
Shut up. I'm going to kill you and take your power. I'm still here for the same reasons. Let's go!
The wolves begin to move at the sound of Fenrir-Laguna's voice.
They're moving slow and their outlines are wobbly.
He himself is wobbling, too. So I don't notice.
The wolf pack that I summoned, and before I knew it...
There's a beautiful golden one mixed in.
''Guh-u-u-u-u-u-u!
The golden wolf shouted.
I kind of know what you mean. I guess I've lost my patience.
'Okay. Come on, Rita!
────?
bang
The golden wolf──Fenrir-Laguna, who was hit by Rita's rush that had been 'fully beastified', was blown away.
As it was, it slammed into the wall of the house and became motionless.
Fenrir-Laguna was knocked down!
Good job, Rita.
”...... wow
In her wolf form, Rita rubs the tip of her nose against me.
I had Rita 'fully beastified' and sent her out to scout. While in her wolf form, Rita's senses become sharper and her movement speed increases significantly. Thanks to this, I was able to completely grasp the enemy's movements.
''............ Hmph. Wow. Kuhn.''
Rita's beast ears are down, and her tail is standing up, twitching, embarrassed.
I'm patting my back like normal, but Rita isn't wearing anything right now. ......
'I'd like to do this some more, but I don't have time.
I would have liked to interrogate Fenrir-Laguna if I could.
But soon, Hydra will be here.
I have an idea on how to deal with that one.
I talked with Cecil and got assurances from the saintly lady that it would work.
At the very least, we should be able to get rid of them.
Cecil, Iris, Rafilia and Her Ladyship will go with me to fight off Hydra. Aine, erase this guy's memory ...... and get Rita's clothes out. Rita, I want you to guard Aine.
「「「「「 ”Li Ka'i!” 」」」」」
This is the final stage of the mission.
We're going to run for the west wall.
Cecil will be the main villain in the fight against Hydra. How much magic do you have left?
I'll take care of it, Lady Nagi.
Cecil took his silver staff, the Sacred Staff Neuerut...
To be precise, he grabbed the 'Reconstructed' - 'True Holy Staff Noel Root'.
'I want to be able to protect Nagi-sama from any opponent. Hydra is just the right person to practice with. I will show you the power of Nagi-sama's slave, the 'Sea Dragon Hero' and 'Celestial Dragon's Representative', right here!
It's all stealthy.
'Yes! It is only Nagi who can show you everything about me!
And so we headed to exterminate Hydra.
It was only a matter of time before we experimented with the ”True Holy Wand Noel Root” that we had rebuilt.
