416 Chapter 368
Leave yourself to the momentum of the water and continue through the waterway.
Fortunately, it doesn't seem necessary to change course because it's close to a straight line, but where does this waterway lead?
"---Gobbo"
Exhale out of your mouth and press your mouth against the deformed mask to breathe in air.
It's not even the same as a cylinder, but I can breathe enough, and I can travel underwater just like in the air, so Keira's magic possibilities are truly incalculable.
"Am I already dead when I'm trapped in two bodies and a coffin?"
Don't worry. If you die, you won't have such a strange experience, so you'll live properly. "
Giggle, it's over.
I could hear Aul, Hannah, and Roone talking from behind, so it seemed to be okay.
I took another breath of air and looked forward. [M]
It's time to go out where the water cuts off and the water falls...!!
Mm!! I can see the lights!!
"--- Nut!!"
I jumped out of the waterway exit and jumped in front of me ---,
"This place is..."
There is such a large space among the submerged ruins.....?
We came out of a circular space.
There are many waterways on the wall similar to the ones we came out of, and there is a rain of light overhead.
What's that? It's not the sunlight.
Some kind of magic tool, some kind of ore, some kind of light?
Even though it can't be helped, it's flooded
Hey, if you're with me, let me out.
"Ah, yes, Keela."
Yes!
When you solve the upper part of the box containing the four people, you can see the runes in the state of a child lion.
When Roone jumped dexterously on my shoulder, she slapped me on the cheek as she looked at my wet body.
"I'll dry it for you."
Can you do that? Well, please.
A blue and black flame ran from Roone's body and dried my clothes.
I felt a little bit of heat, but in an instant, my clothes dried out.
"Thank you."
Umu
Pfft, Roone snorted her nose with pride.
Hannah and Aur-san on my back also stepped out of my back.
"Huh, this is the end of the waterway?"You've come to a very bright place. "
"Ugh!!? Isn't it still expensive?!Please go downstairs!! "
"Yes, yes."
Hannah retracted, so I went down to the scaffold about 30 meters below.
The water from above seems to be going through another waterway...
... looks just like where Farga-sama was.
The fountain of Kreja in the underground of Myarlak.
The atmosphere is somehow similar, but the water flowing here is normal.
Well, if this water is the same as the Fountain of Creja, there's something wrong with me.
Well, if you go downstairs, it looks like you still have a long way to go.
"Huh? It's true..."
Mr. Aul was right. There was still a place to move on.
"Hey, Rabbit, there's a footprint. It's still new."
"Is it a footprint..."
Looking at Roone's instructions with her tail, I could certainly see the footprints of several people.
But not the Amakos.
It's not her footprint, and there's no Bullins, so maybe this is Aul's colleagues' footprints.
"My footprints are oozing with blood..."
"It must be blood." We have no blood to shed.I think it's probably the blood of a monster. "
It seems that the dragon isn't the only one in the area, and that line seems to be powerful.
So you're Aul's companion, then?
"I think so." There are only three muscle gorillas in this big auger-like footprint.So there are demons ahead... ahh, I really don't want to go ahead. "
... if you join the devil, you'll become our enemy.
"But there is only one way to go, and we have no choice but to go either way..."
"We haven't found the trace of Shia yet."
"... yes..."
It is highly probable that she is in this ruin.
If I had the memory and magic of the previous heroes, it would be like traces of them left on the road... but I might be on a different path than the one I was on in the first place.
"...... Shall we take a break?"
"Eh, Usuat-kun is taking a break...?"
Ussato-san, what happened in the battle just now?
Hannah was still surprised by Keira.
As far as I'm concerned, I wanted time to put my thoughts together, and it's time to get some information on the devil from Mr. Aul.
... I think we should rest Keira and Roone first.
"Keira, give Rene and Hannah some food."
Yes! Where's Mr. Husato?
"Do you want me to take it too?"Hannah, please keep an eye on them. "
Understanding my intentions, Hannah sighed lightly. She stepped off my back and took Keira out of the cloak and Rene back to the human figure, leaving me and Aul... and her twin sister still on my back.
"Before we talk...."
Pick up food from Keira's cell phone and eat it quickly.
First of all, I had to try to recover my magic power in a short time.
After solving the magic sensing, I turned to Aur-san again.
Mr. Aul, please give me as much information about the devil as you can.
"Of course, I'll tell you anything!"...... but I don't have much information about demons either. "
Even though Veena's case had been taken lightly, the demon had no companionship.
Should I say that I don't even have the idea of trusting it?
"For once, it feels like you're disobeying the orders of the devil, so you should be able to react to my attacks at any time."
Okay, here's the healing magic bullet.
"... after all, there's something about this magic bullet!!"
I gave him a healing magic bullet to detonate so he could react anytime.
When Aul received the magic bullet, he looked at the magic bullet in his hand and came to me.
"No, no, no! The timing was strange!!"
"What's wrong with you!"How do you think it looks like a normal magic bullet!! I can't believe you're so suspicious... can you trust me so much?! "
"It's suspicious trying to deceive you with your momentum!!"
To tell the truth, it's fun to interact with your predecessor, Aur-san, like Koufa.
In addition, magic bullets were already woven into it, and even if they were found out, there was nothing wrong with them.
Let's get back to the story. Tell me about the devil."
"Haha, it really reminds me of the old days..."
As she dropped her shoulder, Aul smiled.
"There are two demons I know.It's Leah and Kayla. "
This is the demon we've encountered.
"Yes, Les Ali is frightened and palliative.Kayla is an angry single-celled pride. "
It was Leali who laughed at me and the Commander at the cemetery.
I ran into Kayla at the ruins of the reunion with Shia.
One of them had magic that could hide even his own existence, but it could be captured by magic sensing.
I don't know what kind of ability Kayla has, but she didn't use it when she was fighting, so it doesn't look good for combat.
"Currently, there are about five demons that would be there.The other three are cautious... no, I'm not showing any willingness to cooperate. "
A race of demons who have no sense of companionship, and even their own kind is the target of the kicking.
"Even if the number is reduced a lot by Mr. Hishago, there is no sign of joining forces..."
"I heard that the two of them were destroyed by Shia... Shia Garmio, is that true?"
"I don't really know about the demon before I woke up, but it's true about the second one."Isn't that right, Ushato-kun? "
Rapud, is that you?
The demon that attacked Meerlak.
There was Farga-sama's testimony, and I was sure that she'd been destroyed by Shia's Light Magic.
"...... Was the sorcery cast on Mr. Aul by Leali?"
"It must be different." Ralia has our commands, not the magic that drives us.
So Leali just took Mr. Aul's body from the cemetery?
Currently, there is no way to release Aul-san, so I have to hold my head.
I'd like to test Nea's Necromancer ability, but it's also risky.
The devil doesn't know much about Shia Garmio either.It is recognized as the top priority to eliminate, as is Mr. Usato, but at the same time, it is frightened. "
"Because I'm the one who can destroy demons..."
It's worth it, just like me. [M]
I am aware that the devil has made me an enemy, and I am aware that I have done so much.
"I was just talking about her... but I'm here." to this ruin. "
"! Are you sure?"
Maybe you got into this ruin before we did.I don't know what path I took, but I didn't get lost at all.
After all, is Shia in this ruin?
"I hope it's not dangerous..."
"Ah, there's something I should advise you about!!"
Yes?
I leaned my neck toward Aur-san, who raised his voice as I remembered.
"As a matter of fact, it seems that the demon is diving into the Demon King's realm as a spy!"It's a demon who is good at disguise, so be careful...!! "
"Huh? I'm not surprised...?"
Huh... maybe you're talking about Veena, but she's so awkward because she's turning over to me just because of her own desires.
"Don't worry, the demon has turned over to me."
"... turned around? Huh? What do you mean?"
"Honestly, I don't know what it means either..."
When I came here, I gave Aul a look that I completely forgot to understand.
As for Veena, I'd like to have that look on my face.
I wonder what's really going on with him.
"Kohon....... I hope this kind of information has been helpful?"
Yeah, that's enough.
For once, there was something to be gained.
It's time to finish the break and move on.
I called Keira and the others and gathered again.
At that time, I will tell Rune, who rides on my shoulder in the form of a child lion, that Shia is in this ruin.
"Rune. Shea is in the ruins."
"! Really!? Where!?"
"I still don't know where it is. Let's find it together."
Oh!
Does that mean that Shia is important to her?
... different places to live, but maybe she's hungry for relationships because she was lonely, like Keira and Ferm.
"---Usato-kun"
Thinking so, Aul, who was next to him, suddenly stopped moving as he tried to walk forward.
I noticed the anomaly in her tense voice and hid my right hand behind my fingertips, which was lit with system enhancement, and looked back at her.
"What's the matter?"
I'll be brief. Leari or Lapud are near here.We haven't noticed yet, but we're probably in a fight.
"... how do you know that?"
"The order has changed."
An order that the demons can force on Mr. Aul.
Surely, the priority now is to protect the demon, and the next thing you know, you're going to kill me... right?
"Now it's time to destroy the adversary."In other words, the demons are currently fighting in the vicinity and you are right next to them. "
"... I mean?"
"You can't hold me anymore, so you have to blow me up right now."
At that moment, Aul-san pulled out his sword vigorously against his ungrateful expression.
A sword caged in impact magic.
Before he could wave it to me touch the healing magic bullet created by the deterioration of the system in Mr. Aul's left hand with the system enhancement he had hidden behind him.
"I'm ahhh!?"
By strengthening the system, the healing magic of system deterioration causes intense shock waves.
As a result, Aur-san, who had been hit by a shock wave at close range, blew back with a heated scream.
I myself was shocked and stood my fist as I stepped back.
"Rabbit-kun!! Hey, Rabbit-kun!!"
Aur-san looked at me with tears in his eyes as he rolled up.
"You've been letting me have magic bullets that explode!?"
"Yes!! I'm sorry!!"
"I don't think I can trust you anymore!!"
I'm very sorry, but I should say that preparation for the event was helpful.
... and then the sister of the Dark Wizard on my back.
"Keira, keep your back restrained."It doesn't look like he's been rampaging yet, but it doesn't matter when he shows us he's willing to attack. "
Roger that.
"I don't feel alive next to you...!"
I said that my back is safe, so please be patient for now!
I had to fight Aul, who had become an enemy in front of me.
"Please don't resent me, Aul-san...!"
It looks like I have a grudge at the moment!
I floated the magic power created by the deterioration of the system in both hands and took a stance.
We'll be engaging with Aul, but if the demons are nearby, we'll be taking them to a scuffle.
Hah!!
!
A magic bullet created by exposing the magic power of impact magic.
! As expected, I'll use it in real battle soon!! But!!
"I'm also using that technique!!"
The explosive shell created in her palm was aimed at Aul-san with a healing fist.
A new burst shell that improves the breaking power of the burst shell itself by adjusting the strength of the elasticity imparted to the burst shell.
It bumped into the impact magic bullet released by Aul, and as it broke through, it headed towards Aul.
Healing Burst Fist!!
"Nnh!!?"
I didn't think it would even be offset, but Aur-san was in a hurry to absorb the bursting fist with his impact magic.
In the blink of an eye, I wielded the magical power of the deterioration of the system that was wrapped around my hands.
I'm sorry, but you seem to be better at exploding magic!
A momentary attack and defense.
It took several blows, but none of them led to direct blows, rather, they were absorbed by impact magic but that was fine.
As she stepped back, Aul noticed something unusual about her body.
"The magic bullet is stuck!? Wasato-kun, what the hell is going on!?"
The magic bullet attached to Mr. Aul... activates the forged burst.
She gets up as she rolls on the ground again in an unexpected shock.
"Ah, the one that explodes is mixed with a magic bullet attached to it...!?"
"Do you have time to stare?"
That's right!
She will have noticed my methods of warfare. [M]
You're trying to confuse yourself by dumping a burst of ammo into a Bluff magic bullet.
I kicked Aur-san, who was watching my hands with magic.
"Ugh!?"
"It's not a case of being distracted only by your hands!"
When I was frightened, I attached three more magic bullets.
Saying that, Aur-san's expression was made bitter, and while he stepped back, he absorbed the explosive shell that was about to swell up with impact magic.
"It's a good method of warfare, but I'm a little uncomfortable with my opponent!"
"Is that really the case?"
I've forgotten about Mr. Aul.
How did I detonate a magic bullet that wasn't a bursting shell?
She thinks she can handle this warfare now, and she'll forgive me for approaching her again.
"That's why even if you try to stick a magic bullet ---!?"
Light from the right hand that strengthens the system.
Before the magic bullet could stick, it touched the magic bullet stuck to Mr. Aul's shoulder and burst with more explosive power than a bursting bullet.
"---"
Mr. Aul, who couldn't handle the unexpected shock, is blown away.
"You're telling me to stop, but you're going to use it like an idiot."
"Looney, I'm talking about you, but don't try to imitate me, okay?"
"You're not trying to imitate me, are you, stupid?"
No, this girl is more spicy than Nea.
It really hurts to be told to look at an idiot.
"Ahh, did you misread it?"After all, you're the captain's apprentice. "
Aul doesn't lose consciousness after an explosion.
Of course, it's because I'm stunned or suspicious, but it's not compatible with me trying to neutralize me by stunning.
"... magic is spreading like it's good."
The magic power that was spread in the battle with Aul was spread by a burst of explosive bullets.
I still don't know how the demons reacted, but somehow I knew where the magic power was shaking unnaturally.
Aul-san!
Yes!
From now on, let's go to the demon we're absorbing and go together!
"Wow! Sounds fun!! Now, let's fight!!"
Aul nodded with a wonderful smile that might be because he was being manipulated by the devil.
She fought her way into the depths of the ruins to lead her back to where the devil was.
