Episode 115

[24th floor quest.]

[This is the world where the demons live, the Demon Realm.]

[The Celestials, who had been in constant conflict with the Demons, sent you down to the Demon World with a mission.]

[The mission is to assassinate the Demon King, the king of the demon tribe.]

[Use the power given to you to kill the Demon King.]

[compensation: ???]

[On failure: Death.]

As soon as I entered the gate, an ear-splitting roar was heard, along with the translucent quest window.

“……Ugh.”

I looked to the side with my ears covered, and there, there was a huge mountain that looked like a volcano spewing out fire.

As I watched the smoke and flames constantly pouring out of the mountain, and the red lava and rocks flowing down the mountain, it felt as if the world was about to end… … .

[Father, look over there.]

As soon as I saw the direction Dracolich was pointing, I understood immediately.

This place, it’s just like the world itself is crazy.

“Kaaaah!”

An undead bird-like thing with a body made entirely of bones that flies through the sky, making a noise like a crow.

A swarm of long, thin things rising from the ground, swooping down and snatching up such birds.

On the land that splits and merges again every moment, and even the thick gray clouds that seem to be transmitting the sun that was originally shining brightly as a crimson light.

It was such a desolate place that it was doubtful whether any living beings could live there.

“24th floor…… Yeah, I have to come here again…….”

Meanwhile, Leona’s face hardened rapidly as if she didn’t want to come.

I was curious about what had happened, but for now, I started reading the quest window again carefully.

“……Assassination of the Demon King.”

Is this the goal?

In some ways, it was the goal that best suited my personality, but I still couldn’t shake off an uneasy feeling.

‘I wonder what the Bone Fortress guys have done to this floor.’

It was natural that they would join hands with those demons, and it was reasonable to assume that they would have done something even worse.

It would be fortunate if they had deployed their forces close to the Demon King, but if it was more than that… … .

‘Getting through here might be the hardest part.’

At the moment when she was thinking like that, a spider that had been activating its magic eye next to Leona came in.

[When I looked around with my eyes, there was only one place where people could live. And that was where the Demon King lived… … I guess I should go see it for myself.]

Then, out of the blue, he put the scenery he had seen with his own eyes into my head.

The scenery seen that way was a castle that looked extremely ominous.

It was a place with a shape that looked like a burning flame, surrounded by countless mountains and a moat surrounded by lava.

But what is most overwhelming is the distance from here to there.

As Ma-an’s field of vision widens, the mountains blocking the vast distance become visible one by one.

It was a situation where I couldn’t help but feel dumbfounded when I saw a landscape with dozens of mountains blocking the way.

“What is it? What is the situation?”

Unlike me, Leona, who heard the situation from Spider, spoke calmly.

“There’s nothing really different from before. If it’s that far away, it’s probably the same location as the previous Demon King’s Castle.”

“Do you remember all that?”

I was a little surprised by the more indifferent reaction than I expected, but when I thought about it, it was to be expected.

Because she had already been up this floor before.

“What do you think of me? It’s been a while so my memory is a bit hazy, but I remember this much.”

She looked at me with a bewildered expression.

If so, do you also know detailed information about this world?

“Any other information besides that?”

“Huh? I have one, but… you’re not asking me to do it naked, are you?”

Even in the midst of all that, she came out as if she was asking for points while rubbing her hands, but what do you think?

If the information is correct, it’s worth a point.

“Pay later as information fee.”

“Oh, that’s a big deal? Okay, then I’ll tell you everything I know.”

When it came out like that, Leona got even more excited than me and started talking nonsense.

“The Demon King we killed back then… was it around the 300th time? He was that many Demon Kings, so the current Demon King is at least the 301st, and since it hasn’t been that many years, his power must be very weak. The Demon King’s power grows stronger as time passes.”

“So does that mean I can kill them all by myself?”

“That’s not it.”

I was excited because I thought I’d be able to finish the quest quickly, but Leona shattered my expectations.

“Even if it hasn’t been that many years, the Demon King is still the Demon King. If he was weak enough to be killed by just you, wouldn’t those celestials have wiped him out already? I’ve spent a lot of time here.”

“How long did it take?”

“5 years.”

I was a little surprised.

I thought it would only be a few months, but it actually lasted years.

I used to wonder why you knew so much about this world, but it would be stranger if you didn’t know that much.

“Does it take that long?”

“Well, it might take a little longer for you… but basically, in order to kill the Demon King, we need to gather players and do some preliminary work. It’s bound to take time.”

“Pre-work?”

I became serious, wondering if there was something else I had to do to catch the Demon King, but Leona looked at my face and said it was nothing.

“I heard it from other people, but the more demons you kill, the weaker the Demon King’s power becomes. That’s it.”

“……Kill the demons?”

So, is killing the demons here a preparatory task?

My face suddenly frowned at the way it was done, more violently than I had imagined.

“So, during those five years, you went around catching and killing every demon you saw?”

“Well… that’s what it is? But it’s strange. It seems like they destroyed all the villages while doing that, but did they rebuild them all in the meantime? They’re all fine.”

Leona muttered while staring intently into the spider’s eyes.

Soon she changed the subject as if it wasn’t particularly important.

“Well, if it’s something we can handle, then you’re no match for it, so I don’t think you have to worry about that.”

“……That may be true.”

I don’t know how strong the Demon is, but considering that Leona can kill it, it should be an easy opponent for me.

If so, even if you invest only a few months rather than years, you could achieve much better results than Leona did… … .

“So, did it actually work?”

“Huh? Uh… When we fought, the Demon King’s power didn’t kill us. But maybe we’re weakened?”

“You didn’t fight directly before killing the demons, did you?”

Leona had no answer to that.

I don’t know who Leona heard that from, but at least it’s ambiguous whether it’s true or not.

[I don’t know about anything else, but I think that would be difficult.]

Meanwhile, the spider who had been quietly listening to us suddenly intervened.

[In the center of every place where houses are gathered, there is a fortress of bones, and their symbol is drawn.]

Then the spider began to show the scenery it saw through its eyes.

Certainly, the symbol of the Bone Fortress guys carved into a building in the town center where people gather.

It seemed like the building they were using as a hideout.

“Hey, aren’t there places where they’re not? Have you searched enough?”

Leona said that, seeming very flustered by the unexpected situation.

“At least from here, all around the shortest route to that castle, there were bone fortress guys.”

Meanwhile, in the village in the scenery that the spider showed, there were marks of the Bone Fortress guys.

“Even if we go back a little, can’t we stop by another town before we go? It’s a bit too much to just go…….”

“If it’s just a stop along the shortest route, then that’s fine, but it’ll take too long to get anywhere else.”

The traces I left on the previous floor will eventually be discovered by the Bone Fortress guys over time, so I have to climb the floors as quickly as possible.

In the meantime, there was no time to stop by other places.

In the meantime, the spider’s words as he drives in the wedge.

[I looked through every village I could see, but still, all of their villages had the symbol of the Bone Fortress guys.]

At the same time, a scene of what appeared to be another village appeared in the spider’s eyes.

Of course, the center of it all had the mark of a fortress of bones.

I felt bad for Leona, who was flustered, but I shook my head in front of her.

“At least that method won’t be of any use.”

Not only was the authenticity of the method questionable, but in order to see the effect, a great number of demons would have to be killed, and it was impossible for the Bone Fortress to not detect it during that time.

“I’ll deduct this from the information fee…….”

While Leona was talking like that, perhaps embarrassed, Dracolich seemed to have remembered something and offered his opinion.

[Father, how about I attack them with magic?]

It seemed like a plausible solution, but soon a spider got in and showed its true colors in front of us.

-Shooooooong

In the light coming through the eye, there was a fireball that was falling towards a village.

Perhaps it was because there were volcanoes everywhere spewing out similar things, with one volcano even actively spewing out similar things.

Just as it was about to fall into one of their villages.

Kwaaaaang!

A large number of bones rose from the ground, then quickly blocked the fireball as if to protect the village, then disappeared.

[It seems to me that your magic is not yet at this level.]

When I saw the dracolich flinching in confusion at the spider’s words, I couldn’t help but sigh.

“The opinion was good, but it seems impossible to kill those demons first and then go fight the Demon King. Do you have any other information?”

This isn’t all she knows.

I asked because I thought there might be some other information.

“There’s no point in teaching you, because all my information is related to killing demons.”

Leona, whose information was biased towards her, fidgeted and eventually attacked the spider, perhaps because she thought she wouldn’t receive any information.

“Can you show me the sight you saw with those eyes?”

[A human being can see into my heart?]

“hurry!”

Although he seemed reluctant, the spider eventually began to show Leona the scenery he had seen with his own eyes on the ground.

Meanwhile, Leona was asking the spider for various things, as if she was looking for something.

“……Morse.”

In the meantime, Garriel, who had not said a word, suddenly opened his mouth.

“Is this really the Demon World?”

“Yes, if the system is not telling me something wrong, then it should be.”

As he said that, Garriel started to list out information one by one as if he had just remembered something.

“I’ve heard of the Demon World… It’s a land so barren that only the strong races that desperately fought to survive survive.”

“Have you ever heard of it?”

As I turned my attention to the information that came from an unexpected place, Garriel waved his hand in confusion and said.

“I don’t know for sure! It’s just a fairy tale that’s been passed down to us, but… I can see it with my own eyes. That it was a true story….”

“So, is there any other information?”

As I kept asking, only then did Garriel begin to mutter, as if trying to recall a memory from his head.

“Umm… It’s such a long time ago, I can’t quite remember it….”

“Anything is fine, I just want you to tell me everything you remember.”

Then Garriel started listing everything he had actually remembered.

The Celestials fighting against the Demons, fighting each other… …and the appearance of the Demons, etc.

There wasn’t much useful information.

‘… … Is this really a waste of time?’

It was at that moment that I was thinking that way.

“It is said that in the past, when the Demons were pushed back in war… there were even times when the Celestials invaded the center of the Demon World. There were also times when it was the other way around.”

At those words from Garriel, my mind suddenly turned.

‘Considering that the Demon Realm is intact, the Celestials probably didn’t win here… … They probably lost, and then their corpses would still be here.’

Then, if we revive the corpse of that celestial being.

Perhaps we can get some more information about the Demon Clan and the Demon King.

When I asked Leona about this, her response was positive.

“……Wait a minute, I was wondering what it was because I saw some empty places here and there among the villages that hadn’t been destroyed before…… Could that be it?”

[Let’s take a closer look.]

To the two of them who wanted to take a closer look again, I added the information I had heard from Gariel.

“Look around that area with your eyes to see if there are any signs of a fight.”

[Signs of a fight? Okay.]

How many minutes passed like that?

[Found it.]

As soon as I saw the scenery inside the spider’s eyes that was muttering like that, I was immediately convinced.

‘think.’

A land where white and black military flags are placed like tombstones.

There will be a corpse of a Celestial there that will give us information.
