Chapter 27 Detection of the cause and start of dealing with it

Until the professors came, I was getting information about the second Demon Lord’s dungeon while talking to Yukino.

“Miss. Yukino, do you have experience of diving to the bottom?”

“Yeah. I saw the twelve floors with a quick glance and came home, I did not explore much. I was diving only. So, I added them to the map that Chrono and others will use.”

Saying that she handed me the map. There is certainly a journey up to the 12th level.

“Thank you.”

“I don’t mind. Thank you for your help. We should have many comrades in order to find treasure.”

Even now, she’s also in a super-advanced class, working to find the treasure.

“Does Yukino have any legacy in mind?”

“In mind…”

Yukino shook her head after remaining silent for a few seconds.

“I don’t have anything right now. But I’m just trying to improve myself by diving and searching randomly.”

So that’s it. Well, I don’t think there are many people like us who seek for a certain treasure. We wouldn’t have a Legacy in mind without that little accident.

“However, there are not so many treasures of the second Demon King in the material. So, it was hard to find, and there was no one to look for with us.”

“Huh, is that so?”

“Yeah, some other dungeons are filled with hundreds of legacies, but there aren’t tens for the Second Demon King dungeon.”

I was surprised that there were really few,

“The lack of heritage is due to the principle of the second Demon Lord, he left only tools with great effects.”

Liza said from the round table.

She should have been investigating the heritage that controlled Yukino while scattering the materials up until now, but the table is already clean and tidy.

“–And since there aren’t many, it was easy to narrow down.”

“Did you say that you find out what controlled Miss Yukino?”

“Somehow. I did some research by listening to the stories from Salamado and searching for materials. It seems that there is only one heritage that is likely to exert control.”

Saying that Liza showed us a piece of material.

What is written there is:

“Glutton Lizard?”

“Yes. The cause this time seems to be an ecological heritage created as a familiar of the second Demon King.”

“There are various types of ecological types in the legacies of the Demon King.”

“Well, but it should have been confirmed to be sleeping at the bottom, all the time. Salamado.”

Yukino shook her head vertically in response to Liza’s words.

“…I confirmed the 12 levels about 6 months ago, so that’s definitely true. A lizard that was reasonably large was snoring and sleeping properly.”

Yukino said with her arms open as she was showing its size. It’s about a meter from her hands opening.

“That’s right. The materials also say that the second Demon King himself made it slept.”

“Why did you do that if you would make the familiar sleep?”

A familiar should normally be kept around you, but I wonder if the second Demon King was different.

“Well, this “Glutton Lizard” has the ability to eat, digest, and power up the demon’s heritage.”

“What? Why did he make such a strange thing to eat the legacies of the Demon King?”

“It seems that it was a disposal site of the heritage. Although the second Demon King developed tools, it seems that it was allowed to eat them if he was not satisfied with the tool. It also says that it has gained the ability to suck up power by making a ruling contract over other creature.”

That ridiculous thing was sleeping.

“But can you control it while it is asleep?”

“No, that’s not possible. It seems that the second Demon King let it wake up when he was nearby, and maybe this time it got up. Well, but it’s easy to unlock.”

“How easy is it?”

I’m troubled because I can’t do anything about the slave contract, but can I easily cancel it this time? I thought so and asked, Liza, nodded.

“It’s clear what the contract is on. You can unlock it by defeating the Demon King’s legacy or by someone else’s possession.”

“Is it easy?”

“It’s easy. Because it’s an ecological type, it would be nice if we could use it easily. If not, we should defeat it.”

Well, if it’s a big lizard as Yukino says, is it possible to kill or beat it?

“…I mean, I wish I could easily cancel the control contract with Sophia like that. No, I don’t want to be beaten.”

Saying that I looked at the chain connecting Sophia and me, she was on the other side of the chain with a troubled smile.

“Oh, I don’t think I can defeat him, and even if I do, I don’t want to fight with Chrono san. It’s my benefactor.”

“Hmm. In the case of Chrono and Sophia, having a mother core that acts as an intermediary is troublesome. It can only accept special unlocks, so it can’t be helped.”

“Really, I have to find something like a “Baton of denial” in the dungeon of the second Demon King…”

And when I was talking with Liza and the others…

“Thank you for waiting, Demon King! Dante and eight other professors where available.”

“Oh, you came.”

Eight demon men, including Dante, came into the super-advanced class. Each wore something like leather armor. They were ready to fight.

“Well, are you going to go in with so many people?”

“Well, I want to do a lot of research.”

Each of the men had a strong-looking body. Liza came next to me when I received a light nod from them and shook hands.

“How is it, Chrono? How do you feel when you saw our professors?”

“Somehow, everyone is very tough.”

“Oh, well, that’s right. Because I’m not a demon king who has a very strong fighting power, I’m gathering people with a good physique. I’ll introduce each person again in a certain time, so now I’ll look into Chrono’s ant the others problem.”

“Oh, yes. I understand.”

After saying that, Lisa looked at Yukino.

“Will you come, Yukino? Maybe you’ll go to the lizard subjugation after we’ve confirmed that Chrono and others have all under control.”

“Yeah, I’ll go. I have a fever, but I can move. I want to see the cause as well.”

“Well, then do your best.”

Then we were ready, and we entered the door leading to the dungeon of the Second Demon King.
