After walking around for a while, I finally got all the things I wanted to buy.
The carriage has also been bought.
Although I felt something was wrong when I saw the owner of the car dealership looking shady before leaving, there was nothing we could do about it.
Probably a bad horse.
But my request is not too much, just enough strength to return to the small village.
When they were leaving the city gate, the city guard gave him a strange look.
"It's so late, where do you want to go?"
I felt a little strange and replied: "Of course I'm going home. I just came to the fortress to buy things."
The young man was silent for a moment and said: "At night...it's not safe outside at night."
Then he was tapped on the shoulder by his superior.
"Don't be distracted."
Then his superior looked at him as if he was looking at a fool.
······Although it is indeed dangerous for most people, I don’t care.
When a hell dog lives in your hotel, the Demon King's Castle is a day's walk away from next door, and there is a Demon King's maid bat running over every night, you will feel that nothing is a big deal.
As time passed, night fell.
The road, which had been empty of people, was now even more lonely, with only the sound of horse hooves echoing around.
Then there were leaves moving, insects chirping, and strange sounds coming from all around for unknown reasons.
It was like something was breathing heavily.
Now the whole scene in a horror movie means that something big is going to happen.
After walking for a while, the surrounding sounds gradually became quieter, leaving only the sound of horse hooves ringing in my ears.
How can the presence of sound be called emptiness?
But I did feel the emptiness.
Although there are dense trees all around, it seems like I am the only one left in the world.
Then from that emptiness that seemed to drive people crazy, a lot of unexpected visitors suddenly broke in.
It's like a rough butcher ran into the zoo with a machete and planned to kill everyone.
It's a wolf pack.
I reined in my horse and looked aside.
Then he happened to face the green vertical pupils in the darkness.
"Brother and sister-in-law, have a wonderful New Year..."
I sighed and gathered my magic.
A prepared curse seal was carved in the air, and with the sudden cold light, countless ice edges penetrated the darkness.
[Quick Charge·Ice Spear Rain]
You can't see it with your eyes, but you can feel the chaotic atmosphere.
It's a beast tainted with magic.
To me it's a bunch of random chopped vegetables.
But when the ice edge passed, there was no sound of "a sharp weapon penetrating the flesh" as imagined. There was only a darkness that was so thick that it could not be dissolved at all, blending into a deeper darkness.
"——No, I just happened to meet him when I went out."
He sighed, truly unable to believe his luck.
But thinking that when I was on the earth, the ten consecutive draws were all blue skies and white clouds, I had to reconsider certain issues.
"Would it be better to listen to what the city guard said at that time?"
I forgot one fact.
Although this is the territory of humans, it is also on the border of demons.
Moreover, the Immortal Fortress is not stuck on that line perfectly, and the demons shout "This is the 38th line."
Unlike the clear rules on Earth, in another world this kind of thing is more of a mess.
Just like my little village.
We were clearly on the border of the demon clan, but the investigators we had were very weak and there was only one.
More of a demon hunter here.
Or, demons.
"Which department are you in?"
Even the autumn wind cannot blow away my sadness.
Although I am not afraid of a fight, if the horse is frightened during the fight or the cart I purchased is scrapped, it will undoubtedly make my situation worse.
"Let's discuss it. You see, although I look like a human, I am actually the Demon King's subordinate, so strictly speaking, we are on the same front. From this aspect, I think we should ——”
A shrill scream came from the darkness, and the reflexes I had developed over the years made me lean down instantly.
A pitch-black arrow brought up a sharp wind behind my back, and inserted into the soil with a pop.
It seems that the negotiation is impossible.
The other person probably thought I was lying.
As I am now, no matter what experts or even gods come to me, I am still a human being, and it is unheard of for a human being to become a subordinate of the Demon King.
The main reason is that my superior level is a bit too high. My situation is equivalent to receiving direct instructions from the Supreme Commander...
If you can't talk about it, you can only fight.
"Since you have attacked me, I will show no mercy."
Now the demon in the darkness has only exposed two of his skills.
Summon the shadowy wolf and archery.
They happen to be the things I'm afraid of.
Or rather, it was something the carriage behind me was afraid of.
Also, the arrow just now probably didn't use anything else at all, it was just a pure physical attack, so I couldn't determine his position through the fluctuation of magic power.
I have no choice but to gather the magic power into my eyes, and then carve the symbol of "knowledge".
【Detect magic】
This is a magic that any magic apprentice can use, and it is also a magic that magicians use most frequently and will not stop until death.
Using magic as a channel, the user's knowledge is transformed into something substantial and presented on the retina.
That is, a different world version of Jarvis.
A large amount of complicated data instantly appeared in my eyes, the names of the surrounding trees were displayed, and everything had a small label hanging next to it, expressing itself as clearly as an introduction in a museum. identity of.
I recognize some things, so the introduction is a reflection of my knowledge of them.
If you don’t recognize something, just say “???”
It is just an ordinary magic, but it is the best tool for most magicians to deal with lurking dangers.
[Detection Magic] allows the magician to notice many details that are difficult to pay attention to. Although it is just a simple "marking cognition" behavior, when a "mark" suddenly appears in a piece of text similar to the X-degree encyclopedia ???", many things immediately became suspicious.
And what I am doing now is also one-glance.
I sighed when I saw a very conspicuous "???" hidden in the darkness.
"The innkeeper——"
The Wind Technique was applied to me with ease, and then I rushed out.
End it before he can react.
He came directly in front of the rather eye-catching "???" in his field of vision, and then punched him without hesitation.
Bang!
A muffled sound was accompanied by the feeling of fists touching flesh and hard objects, and a shadow staggered back two steps in the darkness.
A flash of light suddenly bloomed behind me, and I looked at the dark-skinned demon in front of me and curled my lips.
Then a magic circle suddenly appeared in mid-air, and five fireballs with different angles were shot from it.
That's right! It’s the legendary Five Fireball Technique——
"Kill the demon*1."
