232. The Devil-kin''s attack
Where on earth is the devil-kin horde who suddenly appeared heading?
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,nded in the forest,
and started running toward the cave where the devil-kin appeared.
-
I ran for a while and arrived at therge 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 vige 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 sh.
***
Found them!
While running at the ce for a while, I caught sight of the devil-kin hordes back.
I slow down and see how thend lies.
Umu, there arent more than 100.
There are at least 1000.
There were some people who seem to be human ves.
Moreover, they werent collected in one ce, but arranged separately at various ces
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, letse again next time.
I gave up rescuing the hostage in front of me,
and teleported out usingTeleportation.
***
L, 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? Exin 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
L, 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, L.
Im going to visit the other towns.
S-, Seiji, dont go
L!Pull yourself together!
Youre the hero who defended Ikebu town!
What would feeling frightened gonna do.
B-, But
When it bes dangerous, I wille 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 Aescpiusand cast theDivine protection of Recovery spiriton the entire town.
Shinju town isrger than Ebisu town.
Amazing
Elena-sama, this magic is?
Its a magic that gradually restores strength, magic power, and wounds.
L-san, please do your best.
Yes, Elena-sama.
Elena and L firmly shook hands,
and L 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 toote even if youe now because the preys had considerably been disposed of!
The adventurer said so andughed.
The situation of the battle seems to be favorable somehow or another.
It seems to be all right here, letse and look at it againter.
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.
