(Hee-hee-hee! No need to worry.)
(No, no. Archbishop Reyhiem here has brought back some
information about demon lord Rimuru, isn't it?)
(We're just interested in hearing it ourselves.)
Those voices echoed in his mind. Seven Days Clergy members
Thought Communication to answer it. He measured it again.
There are three of them present — instead of the whole contingent of — and in
in his judgment, this was the most corrupt of the entire group.
Among them was Arze, the Tuesday Priest who ruled over fire. His power
like a disposable match compared to Shizue Izawa. He had nothing to teach, and Hinata did not even need Usurper to
completed his ordeal — but for some reason, he had to assume
that he was unable to seize his skills. It made him look at women
it was constantly, which irritated him.
The other two gifts, Dena, the Monday Priest, and Vena, the Friday Priest — Hinata did not
I can guess their motives. Help Arze, maybe.
A heavy duty. Luminous ordered me to make this as fast as possible and not
it might hurt, too...
Hinata became nervous. Rimuru already had a bad impression of him. If he
letting the Clergy get in his way here, he probably never will
make peace with him — but as long as he has no clue as to the destination
they, he should focus on Reyhiem. He turned his mind when he
lend ear.
“I'm stupid,” Reyhiem get started. “We challenge a fearsome enemy, too
scary for all of us. He was a demon lord, beyond a shadow of a doubt.
Through our own stupidity, we have engineered the birth of a new demon lord!”
His memory of the event made him frenzied, his eyes red and
his voice was raised until he almost shouted. He continued, retelling
the events that led to this birth — his deeds were wrong
direction, everything is left without negligence. It was not by someone's order; he was driven by coercion that he should do it. He needs
forgiveness for his sins, if he wished to be free from his pain
and forgiven by his god.
As he told the story, the paladins began to mutter among them
by oneself. The strength of this enemy, beyond all common sense, makes it difficult for them to
refrain. Either anti-magic barrier or remote-specific defense wall,
enough to stop these monsters — even holy barriers
could not mount any defense against that flash of light.
But Hinata remained steadfast. Based on Reyhiem's testimony, he suspected it was
attacks involving concentrated sunlight. Then as if
in support of that theory, members of the Seven Days Clergy began commenting
themselves.
(Hm. Perhaps this is sunlight magic, the kind that Sir has always had
Gren's.)
(Light-bending magic? Didn't the anti-magic barrier affect him?)
(However Gren doesn't have much power for it.)
Gren, the Sunday Priest, is the head of the Clergy, his reigning light magic. Wrongfully
one of his spells focused sunlight in a similar, and temporary way
Pastors are on the wrong track with their theories, if they and Hinata
having the same impression of this, Hinata thought he was right.
Idiots. It did not directly bend the sunlight with magic; it was
it reflects light from something else to focus it into light.
Otherwise, the barrier could easily block it. What is elemental water and
wind working with him? But it will require a lot of calculations
intricately...
But he has nothing to fear. Once he knew the trick behind it, it was easy to retaliate.
Simply install a protective film to relieve the heat and spread the dust in
air to refract light, and the threat is neutralized. If the sunlight
was the only one being utilized, the attack was full of holes for
exploited. To Hinata, the attack was meaningless.As far as I know, he used his scientific knowledge from another world to
the attack. No wonder people here can't deal with it. They don't even
can understand. However, use it to hit magical defenses
they are very smart. No missed business need...
It took a lot of computing power to engineer the attack, as well as some
the spell is going on at once. It was a serious threat, but
now that Hinata knew what it really was, it didn't seem scary anymore.
But Hinata made her conclusion too quickly. Reyhiem has not finished speaking.
There's more... The main dish, actually.
“Shortly. That mysterious attack was a terrible thing. Sir Folgen was killed
powerless; sir Razen could do nothing against him. Nearly ten thousand
our best knight was overthrown by him, I guess. But..”
He stopped here, swallowing nervously, sweat running down his head, trying
the best to hold on to terror.
“...The real horror came after that. The next moment, the battlefield
become very quiet.
“Some were unconscious, severely injured; others were injured and clamoring in
land; More are healthy but wandering, afraid for their wits. The hustle and bustle they made together made the battlefield into a frenzy.
However... next moment,” Said Reyhiem, “all noise lost.”
“What do you mean?”
“I mean what I said, Lady Hinata. At that time, the members were still
living off the power of twenty thousand strong men died. Only three are still
life: Sir Razen; Edmaris, king of Farmus; and I. Seeing it makes me
losing sanity. I was so overwhelmed with fear that I fainted.”
In the story of Reyhiem, the same silence pervades the sacred cathedral. A monster
single killed a force of twenty thousand in an instant. The truth about things
it's hard to comment with words. In the midst of intense tension, however,
everyone remembers the same legend in their minds — stories about one
the one who leveled the entire city and became the demon lord.Then Hinata recalled something that Luminus himself said to her.
Predecessor of the Western Holy Church launched dozens of centuries ago — possibilities
longer, but that's as far as the record goes. But his people first
moved here two thousand years ago, expelled after Veldora destroyed
their kingdom. The power and immortality of dragons made them transcend
hope; trying to get involved will only add to the dead.
For the vampires who call this place home, Veldora prancing and
destroying humanity will lead to food shortages. Vitality
the purest high quality can only be obtained from humans, and
while Luminus and his family are safe, this is a matter of life or death for
low level vampires. Therefore, Luminus was forced to come up with an approach
their current co-operative to protect mankind. He saved
they, really, and now they worship him as a god.
So it was all Veldora's rampaging fault. He's worse than a disaster
classify it as a Special S in scale, something it cannot
handled by humans, but he's not the only destroyer of a large-scale world. The only creatures at the special S rank were now the four known dragons
there are. But it's just a public story. Meanwhile, in mythology, there are two records
demon lord who demanded a similar campaign of death and madness. This is
Guy Crimson, Lord of Darkness, and Milim Nava, the Destroyer. Demon lord all
it gets an S rating, but there is a difference in this ranking. Some creature, some creature,
like these two, it can be rated Special S behind the scenes — and like the
luminous explained, it happened when a potential demon lord was awakened by
engineering massive destruction, which takes the souls of the dead who
generated. Evolution beyond imagination will be produced.
The term demon lord technically refers to true people who live
this evolution, and even then, it can happen on several levels. It makes
some demon lord is as strong as a dragon, and Luminus wonders if Guy and
Milim have evolved beyond that. Even Luminus, as a true demon lord, was not
have a chance against them. “If I fight Milim,” he said to Hinata,
“maybe I can beat him. Maybe it's a good fight, if it's
which happens. But in the end I will never win.” Then how
with Guy? “Ha! It irritates me a lot, but it'll be worth it. He was in
his own world.”A confident person like Luminus, whose power Hinata does not even
can begin to understand, describing Guy's powers as belonging to another dimension. That
makes Hinata think — about Guy, and about Milim, who actually never
faced him. Hard imagine.
That's what the Special S rank is for. If all humanity were united, perhaps
they could deal with such a monster — but even that was wishful thinking, as it assumed the presence of the Hero in the human ranks. Nonexistent
Heroes now, and thus no chance.
Plus, the current demon lord lineup of — Octagram — is at a danger level
alone, including Rimuru. Luminus believes Rimuru is still in the middle
renaissance, and Reyhiem's words are more than enough to support that.
Soon others began to remember the story of the true demon lords, a terrifying presence
that's. They weren't revealed to the public in case of panic, but it was real, and it was
menaces.
When the first dragon lost its power, it showed no signs
regeneration itself for a number of reasons. Of the other three, one had been sealed
until recently, but now she is back and supporting a Rimuru —
the demon lord who slaughtered the power of twenty thousand alone. It's comparable
with what the other two demon lords did first. Structural destruction
it was not there, perhaps, but the amount of souls he obtained should be sufficient
staggering.
A heavy silence filled the room. Obviously no one wants to admit that
the demon lord, in the true sense of the term, had been born. There's a big difference
between the prospective demon lord and the true demon lord, so everyone in the room was
understand it.
Finally, it was Hinata who quietly broke the silence.
“I understand. So we must assume demon lord Rimuru has awakened... ”
Those words were like sharp blades piercing through the silence, lighting a fire below
those who can no longer tolerate silence.“Looks like it should be. Now what? If we let him, he will be
threats beyond anything we can handle, right?”
“Quiet. Rimuru is a former human. If he tries to coexist
with humanity, there should be no need to fight it.”
“Good. We need to see how he reacts.”
“But we know for sure that he defeated twenty thousand knights without hesitation! He's clear
is threat. Are you sure we should trust him...? ”
The last comment from Renard summed up everyone's thoughts. Such
many wars begin — thoughts play tricks, arouse fear
against potential opponents. That is quite true even among mankind; if
his opponent was a demon lord, it would be hard to believe him. That wouldn't be
it becomes a problem if the enemy can be hunted at any time, but Rimuru grows more
strong at high speed. For the paladins who guard humanity, and the
knights who served as the Holy Emperor's swords, they needed to entertain ideas
to handle it before he was truly impossible to deal with.
But Hinata stuck to her gun. “Silent, everyone,” he said firmly. “Letter
official it absolute.”
There is nothing to say that people will change their minds. As Army captain
The cross and the head knight of the Imperial Guards, he guided the heart and mind
The Holy Empire Lubelius. She should be a model for every citizen,
a strong leader for those who serve under him. His mind will
change only if it happens in the will of the Luminus. That's what makes it
very firm.
So with that, the joint session would end, everyone returned to the task
their intelligence gathering. Or it should be so — but crime
have a way to emerge from the most unexpected cracks.
(Ah, Reyhiem, do you have any other message for us?)Just as Hinata was about to end the meeting, the Seven Days Clergy finally picked up
speakin. It seemed like it shook Reyhiem's mind, as he took out the ball
the crystal from his pocket and respectfully handed it to Hinata.
“I — I actually have this. It was said to be a message from Demon Lord Rimuru
to you, Miss Hinata..”.
“A message?”
He accepted it, watching it suspiciously. A message from Rimuru
possibility was something he could not ignore.
This crystal ball, proffered by Reyhiem at the instigation of the Clergy, was a magical item
a very valuable one. It allows anyone to record a picture message
move around, making it a useful way to send messages. It too
seeing it used in international negotiations, it is seen as more evidence
trustworthy rather than written letters.
Regardless of where Rimuru managed to obtain one of these, Hinata immediately
trying to play it back. Given all the officials in place, it could
it's a great opportunity for everyone to see what Rimuru looks like.
But it's not the end.
The picture shows a beautiful girl, but it is not a girl. That
it is the demon god himself. His face, which reminded Hinata's master, Shizue
Izawa, looked at the audience coldly, emotionlessly. The feeling of presence
he met with full force through video images.
Hinata. Really surprise. Like different people from some
months ago... His eyes met with Rimuru in the picture. Is that a coincidence, though,
or...? He began to realize how nervous he was. Rimuru, a countryman.
A gentle demon lord. Maybe his sentimentality made him
underestimating this threat. Logically, he knew it. As if it were supportive
that suspicion...
