Shamil, who had almost fallen into a state of panic, was now regaining his composure, but perhaps the devastation in the city had taken its toll – he was not as lively as before.
“We need the power of the organization to defeat them. But they have been out of control so far. A demon that travels and kills, a demon that can’t be seen. It’s much nastier than I imagined. It’s like a natural disaster.”
If it’s a daredevil warrior who dares to challenge even the most powerful, or if it’s a lord who sits motionless in the depths of a dungeon, it’s not like I can’t come up with a way to clear them.
You just have to analyze them thoroughly and set up a countermeasure meta. In the past, the boy named Silver Rei was very good at this kind of thing, and even his friends were often drawn to him for his egregiousness.
This time, however, after the fruit is ripped from his hands, he cunningly disappears. It was difficult to prepare for a wandering monster.
And there was a serious concern. Signs of the demonization Electrum. As time went on, it was highly likely that he would eventually become unstoppable. Eventually, a major city like Ilstadt would be chosen as a sacrifice, and when it fell, it might finally become a crisis for the world.
(–Is this the crisis of the world the goddess is talking about? If it’s this situation, it could be taken that way. I’m sure there’s something else.)
What that goddess is involved in is always beyond the realm of imagination.
Souya squinted and sighed, remembering that he had a dry review of thirty points when he defeated the Silver Demon.

“I can’t believe there are still remnants. Is it a disposable pawn?”
While muttering, in front of Shamil’s eyes wiping the blood-stained dagger, the Bronze Demon, whose heart was pierced, was standing dead.
In the midst of their search, they discovered a Bronze Demon wandering around, which Souya and Shamil killed with a coordinated attack.
The red horn had put him in a state of panic, and he was worried about the mental effects, but Shamil’s movements were as brilliant as ever. It seemed that a single bronze demon would not be able to dull his blade.
The red sword in question has been safely released by Shamil’s Fire Spirit Repatriation [Unsummon Flame] and is now safe. It was a result of our rehearsal and practice on the road.
“It’s a huge body. If he swarmed, he would be noticed. If he was left behind, there might still be demons lurking in the city.”
“We need to be on the lookout. It would be great if the priest could come to our help. It seems that if left unattended, the bodies may turn into an undead.”
Shamil seemed to have grazed the back of his hand in the earlier battle and was licking the blood.
It seems to be a scratch, but if either of them is injured in any way that is not light, they will need the help of a healer.
I had the option of bringing Mia, a cleric, with me, but I could clearly say that I was glad I didn’t. She is a strong-hearted and stout-hearted girl, but the quality was too different this time.
Especially the sight of that Red Horn eating was too stimulating. Even Shamil, the Cait Sith, was in a panic.
“Let’s hope Tat-kun has called for help.”
Souya remembered the face of the courageous Grasswalker boy who had run through the pouring thunderstorm. If he has reached safely, he might be able to reach this city in a few hours.
◇◇◇◇◇◇◇◇◇◇
We continued our search until dusk, but we could not find any survivors.
We haven’t been able to search more than half of the area yet, but the sun is setting and visibility is getting worse. We may need to take a break.
“It’s the pattern of the God of Destruction Ragnus …… As I thought, they’re using the residents of Lingen as sacrifices..”
Instead, some sort of evidence to support the deduction has been found all over the city of Lingen. With the translation function of the dark glasses, fragments of the dark script of the God of Destruction Ragnus could be found all over the city.
“What was the purpose of the sacrifice?”
“The Otherworldly Gate. It is a dark art in which the followers of the god of destruction Ragnus excel. It’s usually only strong enough for a small demon imp, or at most a Bronze Demon to get through.”
Souya remembers the time when the Dark Priest of the God of Destruction Ragnus summoned the Silver Demon at the cost of the Hero Randy and his own life in the old fortress.
The strength of the Otherworldly Gate is proportional to the quality and quantity of souls sacrificed to the God of Destruction Ragnus, and a great many sacrifices are required to keep the gate strong enough to attract the Silver Demon.
“I don’t know what they sacrificed in addition to the inhabitants of Lingen. All for a Silver Demon…”
“Master, I hear a voice! It’s a girl.”
Suddenly Shamil interrupted Souya’s words with a loud voice. The cat’s ears are twitching.
Then, he began to run as fast as he could in the direction toward the section of the city he hadn’t finished exploring. Souya also turned himself around and followed it.
Immediately after receiving the shared hearing from his Familiar Shamil, Souya also heard a clear voice.
“…… Help me. My legs are …… it hurts …… I’m scared.”
It was a girl’s voice, telling of a critical situation. There is no doubt that she is injured.
But there was more to it than that. I have a bad feeling about this.
“Shamil, you did well.”
“I didn’t hear it until now, but the girl shouted once …… It’s just, this might be a bad situation.”
Eventually, the two of them caught sight of a girl who was lying on the ground with an injured leg.
And at the same time, they saw something different. The girl was surrounded by bronze demons armed with red swords. There are five of them.
“Yeah …… I didn’t know that there’s still this many of them lurking around.”
Shamil slammed on the brakes and stood there cowering, his face scrunched up.
Even though it is the lowest bronze demon, it is far stronger than ordinary people, and while dealing with the five “colored” at the same time, they were forced to protect the injured girl while dealing with the sword that causes the explosion.
(There are too many difficulties one after another. Goddess, what should I do now?)
Souya began to chant while Shamil cowered in the background.
It was the beginning of the magic that led the heroic boy known as the Silver Rei to another world. Souya held up his hand.
“– Project in my eyes, and all things to my hands. Material Transfer [Aport].”
The figure of the girl in the crowd of demons disappeared and moved to Souya’s hand.
