Chapter 232
Gadol, I\'m going to follow the route of the devil-kin,
inform Elder-sama.
I see, understood.
I jumped down the cliff in front of Elder-samas house, landed in the forest,
and started running toward the cave where the devil-kin appeared.
-
I ran for a while and arrived at the large rock they told me, but
along the way, there wasnt any reaction of the devil-kin
I didnt bump with the devil-kin which means
the devil-kins werent heading toward the dragon-kins village but to another direction.
If thats the case, then
the direction where the devil-kin are heading
is highly likely the Nippo town!
I started running toward the Nippo town usingLightning flash.
***
Found them!
While running at the place for a while, I caught sight of the devil-kin hordes back.
I slow down and see how the land lies.
Umu, there arent more than 100.
There are at least 1000.
There were some people who seem to be human slaves.
Moreover, they werent collected in one place, but arranged separately at various places
I cant easily start a fight since they may be held hostage.
This may be bad.
UsingTransparencificationmagic, I approached the devil-kin.
TheTransparencificationmagic is a magic I learned inLight magic.
It can only be used in daytime, and prevents me from being discovered by enemies.
Its a magic the seems to be the daytime version ofNight shademagic.
However, this magic has a defect.
It can only make the body invisible, but cant conceal the sound.
Therefore, its necessary to approach slowly.
Somehow, exactly at the moment when I tried to approach one of the hostages in the group of the devil-kin and was going to save him-
the twin magic stone in my breast pocket intensely vibrated with *ban ban*.
What the heck is it!?
Dangerous, the sound is audible.
N?Whats that sound?
It has been noticed!
The same trick can never be used again once it has been revealed.
It cant be helped, lets come again next time.
I gave up rescuing the hostage in front of me,
and teleported out usingTeleportation.
***
Lela, what is it!?
I found a horde of devil-kin and was going to rescue a hostage!
If its something nonsense, I will get angry, okay?
I-, I-, I-, Its very serious!
What are you panicking like that for? Explain it properly.
Hordes of monsters are surging towards Ikebu town and Shinju town!
W-, What did you say!?
Shinju town and Ikebu town are being attacked at the same time!?
The horde of devil-kin whom I found is aiming at the Nippo town
in other words, Shinju, Ikebu, and Nippo are being attacked at the same time!!?
Noby any chancethe other towns as well
Lela, are the other towns alright?
I-, I dont know
I got the message from the magic stone dealer in Ikebu.
I asked otou-sama, but the Royal Capital doesnt seem to be under attack.
Even though the Royal Capital is alright, we cant contact the other towns,
so theres a possibility that they are under attack at the same time!
Ill leave this town to you, Lela.
Im going to visit the other towns.
S-, Seiji, dont go
Lela!Pull yourself together!
Youre the hero who defended Ikebu town!
What would feeling frightened gonna do.
B-, But
When it becomes dangerous, I will come to help.
Defend this town until then.
I-, I understand
I-, Ill protect it!
Alright, lets go everyone!
Seiji-sama, please wait a moment.
When I was about to useTeleportation, Elena stopped me.
Elena, what is it?
I will putDivine protection of Recovery spiriton this town.
I see
But no, if the enemy invades, wont it affect the enemy as well?
Its fine, I heard from Spirit-sama that it can distinguish between friend and foe to show its effect.
Really!?
Then its fine.
Do it.
Yes.
Elena raised theStaff of Aesculapiusand cast theDivine protection of Recovery spiriton the entire town.
Shinju town is larger than Ebisu town.
Amazing
Elena-sama, this magic is?
Its a magic that gradually restores strength, magic power, and wounds.
Lela-san, please do your best.
Yes, Elena-sama.
Elena and Lela firmly shook hands,
and Lela rushed out of the room to defend the town.
***
We teleported toward Ikebu town.
Outside of the town, the battle of the adventurers and monsters had started.
How is the situation?
I asked the adventurer who seemed to be taking a break about the progress of the battle.
Its too late even if you come now because the preys had considerably been disposed of!
The adventurer said so and laughed.
The situation of the battle seems to be favorable somehow or another.
It seems to be all right here, lets come and look at it again later.
Seiji-sama, Im going to set up aDivine protection of Recovery spirithere.
I see, its better to put it up just in case, huh.
Elena put up aDivine protection of Recovery spiriton Ikebu town.
The adventurers were puzzled, but they noticed that their strength was starting to recover, and their energy to defeat the monsters had increased.
However, using the magic, Elena staggers a little.
Elena, are you alright?
When I check Elenas MP
Uwa!
Elenas MP has decreased too much!
Elenas MP has decreased as many as 6000!
TheDivine protection of the Recovery spiritconsumes about 3000 MP per use, huh!
Currently, Elenas maximum MP is 7000,
but still, she can only use it twice.
Elena, eat these Japanese sweets!
Yes, thank you.
Elena dont force yourself too much.
No, I have to give my best precisely at a time like this!
Since she ate Japanese sweets, Elenas Mp was recovering steadily.
Alright!Next is Nippo town.
For the time being, I attached atracking beaconto the adventurer whom I speak with a while ago to check up on Ikebu town
Then we teleported toward Nippo town.
