Chapter 74 The Demon King and the Hero

 

Kelvin’s House, Underground Training Center

“Well, let’s do it, Sara! This one’s skill is better than before!”

“It’s still as solid as ever! But I don’t think I’m losing in skills!”

A roaring blast. The crossing of swords and fists. This is the training ground in the basement of the mansion. I extended the basement, which was originally a storage room, with green magic, and now it is larger than the mansion, which is the main building. There are many hobby rooms such as my own blacksmith workshop and the training ground that is about the size of a gymnasium coated with Adamantium ore. I am going.

“Gerard and Sara have become very strong. Do mock battles like this do well?”

“Oh, I haven’t found an equal opponent since I beat Victor. I occasionally hone my skills like this. The basics are brute force.”

As with expedition in Trage, there are no longer enemies within the A-class. However, S-class monsters do not appear often, and naturally, I stay fit in this form.

“It looks like Gerard is pushing.”

“It’s because of my status. He has the most combat experience of all, so it’s natural.”

Sara usually fights with linear martial arts only but uses her skills and magic when dealing with Gerard. But the win rate is not good. In other words, there is still a difference in power. I want Gérard to do his best to keep Sara from being complacent.

“Even so, I’m summoning a hero …”

“Are you dissatisfied?”

Summoning a hero was one of the benefits of Melfina’s blessing this morning. To be honest, I was wondering what to do with this right.

“In the first place, what is a hero? Even if you defeat the Demon King, it’s okay if you’re not a hero, right? For example, an S-class adventurer. It could be the Beast King of Gown.”

“That’s it — Oh?”

“… Melfina, avoid it”

Sara was blown away by Gerard in our direction. Melfina and I evaded by deflecting left and right.

“Tsk! It’s almost over!”

“Ga, ha, ha! I am sorry.”

Sara regretted having her body on the ground. It was a very rare sight that you cannot imagine from the usual appearance of winning every day. Well, I’m quite used to her being there.

“Again, again! I won’t lose next!”

“Ho, ho, Great recovery Light heal. Please do your best ”

I heal Sara while hitting her back.

“Thank you! Kelvin, look at my bravery!”
“Oh, I’m expecting it.”

Sara returned to Gerard at great speed, and the fierce battle resumed. Is it only a matter of time before damage begins to occur in the special training ground? In any case, strike while the iron is hot. It’s bad for Gerard, but it’s customary to let Serra do it until she’s done. After that, I’m waiting for a reflection meeting.

“You’ve stopped talking.”

“No, don’t worry. I was talking about why it should be a hero.”

Melfina gathered light in the palm of her hand. Before long, the light took the shape of a person and floated in the air.

“I explained earlier the Demon King’s appearance is an unchangeable event.”

“Oh, I remember I heard about just before fighting Victor.”

“To elaborate, that phenomenon involves a skill. Every generation of Demon King possessed that skill without exception.”

The doll scattered and the light return to the palm.

“The name of the skill is “Demon of the six heavens”. Nobody acquired it while being born, it only is quired when the Demon King came into power. The cause is still unknown. ”

“It’s like some kind of disease.”

“Hmm, it’s strange to say. Please take a cushion.”

Melfina gave me a cushion, from where she took it out? Well, it doesn’t matter, let’s sit down obediently.

“Well … what’s the effect of that skill?”

“The swelling and expansion of its own malicious evil enough to change one’s personality. If anyone becomes a Demon King, there is something else.”

“It’s disturbing…”

“Yeah, it’s awkward. The conditions are unknown, but it tends to be malicious people. I think you are gonna be okay.”

“I’m reassured if you have God’s endorsement. And there is still one thing?”

“Damage is invalidated.”

“……Is it?”

“It is completely invulnerable; it nullifies the damage.”

Hey, how do you defeat that?

“It’s natural to think so. It is the hero who plays an active role there, more specifically, the power of another world. The different powers of other worlds help neutralize the nature of the invincible demon king in this world. If there is a single person in the party who is from another world, the attacks by the members of that party will not be neutralized.”

“I see. That’s why Delamis’s shrine maiden summons other world people. But then you don’t have to call yourself a hero, do you? Now, my attack will work, right?”
“That’s true, but everything is necessary. Politically and religiously… Otherworlders tend to like this kind of talk.”

“It’s annoying.”

“It’s up to the other world people to follow it. Just because you’re summoned doesn’t mean you’re forced to take any further action.”

Is it a royal or noble territory? Well, it is a story without a bit of interest. I don’t like being used for good.

“It looks like you’re lost.”

“… I wonder if we can really summon a hero. The point is, like Touya, are you forcibly summoning someone for your ego in this world?”

“… Yeah, it doesn’t reflect your intentions.”

“Ah…”

“I would recommend reincarnation summoning for you.”

――― Reincarnation?

“There are two ways to summon a hero: summoning another world people like the Delamis priestess, Colette, and the other summoning the dead souls of another world to this world.”

“Uh, what’s the difference?”

“Let’s explain in order. First, any magical power can be used to summon the heroes. Consider that the amount of magical power determines the hero’s power. There is no limit to the number of people you summon, but the power of the heroes will also be divided. Please note that you can only exercise this right once and only use the magic of those with a blessing.”

I can’t use the magic of my friends; I just must make the summon with my own magic.

“If the summoning of another worlder is only a transference, the cost of magical power is lower than that of a reincarnation summoning. However, the skills it receives when summoned are automatically distributed accordingly, and you cannot select them yourself.”

“That’s Touya’s summoning.”

It’s a low cost. Is that why the Delamis’ shrine maiden summoned four? Even so, she was greedy.

“On the other hand, reincarnation summoning requires reincarnation of a soul that has died once, so it consumes a lot of magic and is not suitable for summoning many people. Instead, you can freely choose skills and benefits You can change the appearance and age. By the way, you are reincarnated.”

“Well, is my appearance different from when I was alive?”

What was that new information? It’s a pretty complicated feeling …

“Don’t worry, you couldn’t change either of them. Doing so would cost you skill points.”

“That’s right.”

Under those conditions, I certainly wouldn’t.

“I don’t think there is any resistance to this reincarnation summoning.”

“That’s right. Is that okay … I hear, but can you choose the soul to reincarnate?”

“Otherworldly Summoning is elected by God, but reincarnation Summoning is completely random. I don’t know what kind of person will be summoned until I actually summon it.”

Random, Demon or Buddha? If another main character like Touya is summoned, Setsuna and I will get bald with stress. I just don’t want that. Is that a huge bet if you think so? Does it need to be summoned in the first place? Even if I fight against the Demon King, I’m likely to be enough with me as an otherworlder…

“You don’t have to rush to decide. You won’t lose your rights, so don’t hesitate.”

“I don’t know if I’m going to do that.”

Don’t worry too much, try to empty your head and think about it. It may be good to ask Efil’s opinion.

“… you.”

I lift the cushion and look at Melfina.

“Oh, not again. It’s about noon. Let’s leave it here. It’s Sara’s reviewing meeting while eating rice.”

While avoiding the blown-away Sara, I’ll try to make recovery magic in the passing. It’s been a lot of work today, too. It will be considerably regrettable in the reviewing meeting.
