Isekai Monster Breeder
Chapter 132 – Demon Apostle
We arrived at the exit of the city towards the coast of Salas.
Well…
It’s about time there were fewer people around, and I think I’ll summon the Wyvern.
The wyvern could get me to my destination in a flash if I rode it, but there’s a problem with that.
“What?!? You bastard! Where do you think you’re looking?!”
Oh. I thought I heard a familiar voice…
When I looked in the direction of the voice, I found the duo different from each other that I had just seen in the guild before.
“Don’t you dare ignore us! Hey! You’ve got some balls to take on my brother, eeehn!”
They’re still a noisy bunch.
The title of A-ranking adventurers is admirable, but their words and actions carry more weight in making them seem strong in some way, which is a defect of these brothers.
Let’s see.
What kind of guy ran into the Vesilta brothers today?
Demon Apostle | Grade S | LV 40/40
Vitality: 1008
Strength: 1580
Magic: 1280
Mana: 888
Skills:
Demon Slash.
Hey, wait a minute.
Wh-what the hell… does that mean…?
In the midst of the Vesilta brothers, “the guy” was an almost 2 meters-tall humanoid monster wearing armor.
No wonder the Vesilta brothers mistook him for a person.
If I didn’t have the skill of Appraisal Eyes, I couldn’t tell it from a “human in armor” either.
What was still surprising were the stats of the “Demon Apostle”.
In the past, there was no precedent for a monster to have stats on par with a high-ranking demon like Carolina.
“Are you listening to me, you bastard!?”
“What a stupid armor! I’ll rip it off piece by piece!”
This is not good!
The Vesilta brothers are still blind to the threat of the enemy!
The unsuspecting Vesilta brothers, pricked the armor of the demon apostle with their fingers.
Shun.
It was only a moment before a strange change occurred.
Fresh blood splashed out as the demon apostle seemed to have drawn its blade at its waist.
“Gugyaaaaaaaa!”
The bodies of the Vesilta brothers are cut to pieces as they scream in agony.
“Please run, Master!”
“…Ye-yeah.”
In any case, the priority must be to ensure the safety of our friends.
I put Aphrodite and Ciel back on the ball, since I had let them out, and then I went into one of the alleys of Saint Bell, with Carolina in the lead.
“Wh-what the hell are those things?!”
“They’re pretty big for a bunch of knights from the Royal Capital. Where do they come from?”
Besides, that’s where you realize a terrifying fact.
The Demon Apostle who showed up wasn’t the only one near the door.
The number of enemies is two, three, four, five, six… as I run through the city, the number of individuals I observe increases one by one.
It has to be a lie… right…?
What are we going to do with so many monsters like that when they can’t even handle one?
“Monsters! Monsters have appeared!”
“Ugyaaaaa! Save meeeee!”
If this is just a nightmare, I want to wake up.
Suddenly, a demon apostle appeared and Saint Bell’s became a hell.
“Caro, tell me! What the hell are those monsters?!”
“They are ‘Demon Apostles’… They are the familiars of the Demon Lord Iblis-sama.”
“…!?”
When Carolina explained it to me, it became clearer.
I’ve heard this before.
That demons often used monsters called “familiars”.
For example, Carolina uses bat monsters, while Yuuko uses undead monsters like ghouls.
If the true identity of the monsters in armor was that of the Demon Lord’s familiars, then their exceptional condition would be understandable.
“So, does the demon apostles’ attack on the city have anything to do with the reappearance of the Demon Lord’s Castle?”
“I don’t know… It’s just that the only person who can control the Demon Apostles is the Demon Lord Iblis-sama. But that would be strange. The Demon Lord in that castle is a fake… so as a rule, he shouldn’t be able to control such monsters.”
“…………”
Carolina’s words are as incomprehensible as ever.
First of all, it is not clear what evidence Carolina has to say that the Demon Lord inside the Demon Lord’s Castle is fake.
“It has been a while, Carolina Burton.”
It was right after we were about to leave the back alley and enter the main street.
Vonnel Rumil
Sex: Female
Age: 388
A beautiful woman with an eye patch, dressed in a serious military uniform, blocked our way.
Age 388?
No doubt about it. This indication of status is definitely that of a demon.
Unlike age, demons that have transformed into humans have the particularity that the entry “Race” is not displayed in the Appraisal Eyes.
“My name is Rumil! Division Commander of the First Division of the Honourable Demon Lord’s Army! I am Rumil the Centaur!”
The woman in the military uniform looks at us and declares aloud.
The commander of the First Division?!
From what I’ve heard before, the rank of a division commander in the Demon Lord’s Army is supposed to increase as the number decreases.
In other words, this woman in front of me is the strongest warrior in the Demon Lord’s army.
Apparently, she is a far more powerful opponent than the Dragon Empress Kururu we fought before.
“Rumil, what’s this all about!? Why are you here?”
“Kukuku. You’re asking the obvious. The only person who can control the Demon Apostles is the Demon Lord Iblis-sama. You yourself were one of the leaders in the Demon Lord’s army, you know that better than anyone, don’t you?”
“Eh-Eh. Eeeeeeh?!”
A new and shocking revelation was said now.
Was Carolina’s identity that of a leader of the Demon Lord’s army?!
We’ve been living together for a long time and I never realized!
I was surprised, but I kind of expected it.
No wonder, right?
Carolina’s reputation among the demons was extraordinary.
Come to think of it, Carolina’s “old workplace” must have been the Demon Lord’s Army.
“You should be proud of yourself. The resurrected Iblis-sama has offered you a deal in exchange for your skills. If you promise to go to the Demon Lord’s Castle as an adult, I will raise my troops now.”
“…So you’re going to take the people of the city hostage!”
“What a strange thing to say. Now that Iblis-sama has resurrected, all living things in this world belong to him as before. Do not insult my Lord.”
This is not right, as there does not seem to be room for negotiations.
For Rumil, who is devoted to the Demon Lord, the lives of the people in the city are worth the same as those of the insects.
“…I’m so sorry, Master.”
Carolina leans her head towards me and approaches Rumil.
“Caro!?”
I wouldn’t expect anything else.
You do that because your heart is kind.
Keeping the demon apostles in town would only cause more damage.
That’s why Carolina chose to sacrifice herself to save so many lives.
Damn it! Those Bastards from the Demon Lord’s army!
I won’t let you do what you want!
“Summon… Adamite Golem!”
So I summoned one of the strongest monsters I had in my possession, the Adamite Golem.
Adamite Golem | Grade B | Level 5/30
Vitality: 118
Strength: 381
Magic: 40
Mana: 35
Skills:
Bullet Rock, Fire Attack Immunity.
Zugoooooooooooooooooooooooooooooon!
An Adamite Golem body press with all its weight on it hits Rumil.
Did it… make it…?
That was the moment when it seemed the difference in size had paid off and it had successfully brought down Rumil.
Bishibishibishi.
Immediately, the enormous body of Adamite Golem was cracked.
“It’s useless.”
Rumil muttered as if bored, and the Adamite Golem crumbled to pieces, creating a great deal of dust around it.
Huh?!
Hey, really?!
What happened…?
Quickly, I checked the status screen.
Kazehaya Souta.
Job: Monster Tamer
Level: 595
Vitality: 275
Strength: 100
Magic: 218
Mana; 3093

Ciel O’Telrod
Yuuko
Rust Trisarti
Lemis Littlefold
Werewolf
Kedamaro
Wyvern
Kraken
Goblin Knight x15
Light Mash x6
Fire Fox x4
Mad Mash
Spy Fish
No matter how hard I looked, I couldn’t find the name of the Adamite Golem.
Are you kidding me?
You mean she killed the Adamite Golem in one hit?
“…Carolina, I’m a little disappointed. I didn’t expect an expert demon like you to serve the wrong person.”
The words of Rumil, full of contempt, I don’t think I can forget them.
In my despair, I fell to my knees.
Since I was summoned to this other world, I had enjoyed every day of my life.
There was Aphrodite, Carolina, Ciel, Yuuko, Rust, and Lemis-san.
From time to time, I would go on adventures to find and capture monsters.
I thought those days would go on forever.
But I was wrong.
The everyday life I had built up to this day was falling apart, and I could hear it.
