121 At The Eight-Key Mansion
"Oh well, that's what happens in the Union..."
When Shuiming finishes talking about the revelations that happened in the coalition, Trinity growls so with a serious look on her face.
Shuiming, who returns the answer to it, showed a bare gesture that flaunts her shoulders, as usual.
"Oh. It was kind of a mess."
"I can't believe they even summoned me to a childhood acquaintance in Shuiming."
"I guess that was a complete coincidence. I was in a hurry when I found out my amnesia was on. Seriously..."
With that said, Shuiming looks back as soon as she arrives at the Union. I stumbled across Hatsumi at the parade, and if I went to see her, they'd tell me I didn't know, that at the end of the sentence I was about to be slashed. That I had a terrible eye.
Then Trinity smiles somewhere relieved.
"But it was good. I would have had a lot of trouble without my memory..."
I guess Trinity is also happy as a friend that amnesia didn't come to matters.
To him like that, Shuiming returns a grin of relief, "Oh, yeah," he said.
And what happened to Trinity? Turn a calm grin that reassures you around into a troubled, heady look that strikes and changes and troubles you.
"Really, it's good to be back, isn't it? Really..."
I guess the cause of Trinity's darkening voice lies in the girl sitting in the chair beside him, regardless. Shuiming missed out on some gloomy shadow that could not be given to her expression.
I envy you that you have returned safely? Still, it's because of Trinity's heart that she doesn't have any jealous feelings at all, but it's not hard to imagine that she struggled with something on her way back to the Empire because she has a feeling of being done somewhere.
Shuiming, who perceived it, exhales like a headache. As a friend who shares the same past, he was still not a human resource.
With Trinity and Shuiming similarly pitying each other that way, Titania opens her mouth.
"So did the brave Hatsumi leave it in the Union?
To her question, Mizumi nodded. And in his place, Fermenia opened her mouth.
"Lord Hatsumi has the battle of Lord Hatsumi. Lord Swimey respected it and decided to break up once in the Union."
"Swimey, are you good with that?
"There's no good or bad. If he's gonna get through this, it's gonna be an extra treat if I can't tell him to bring him in."
"But you could be in danger in the coalition, right?
Dangerous eyes. Trinity also reacts to that.
People like the universal apostles who came out here.
Universal Apostle - Unibelcitus. It's Inrue, Clarissa, Gilberto, and that inexplicable group of people, starting with the man in the mirage who stood on the roof. The plot to manipulate the anti-Goddess sectarians from behind and figure out Hatsumi, the brave man, is still new to memory.
They are all powerful enough enemies to hunt down the Mizumins, and not a glimmer of opponents. As things stand, they are more threatening than the Demons.
Despite their presence, Mizumi left Hatsumi behind. If you ask me if I had any concerns about that, I can't say enough for sure.
But in any case...
"You can't help staying at my place about that, can you? I don't even know where they are or when they're going to attack me. I know what's going on back there. So get Hatsumi to cut through the muscles as soon as possible, and I'll just have to find a way back. That's about the best I can do right now. Stop, more than that."
Mizumi suggests that's not the focus of the story, and Trinity knows about it, too. Put your arms together and start roaring seriously.
He said, "We might be targeted, too."
"If they're right."
"A bunch of mysteries plotting to take the brave..."
It is uncertain what the hell the purpose is and what it is trying to take away the brave. There is no clearer answer to that than there is little information.
And there, Shuiming looks at Lefir.
Among its universal apostles is Gilberto, who became friends with her here in the Empire. Even with her, it would be a lot more complicated for an acquaintance to turn to an enemy.
I just hope at least what they're trying to do isn't a bad thing.
As there is heavy silence indoors, we switch from Trinity to Trinity.
Then we'll be next.
"Right."
"Uhm."
To the words of Trinity, both Titania and Io Kuzami nod.
Before the Mizumins entered the house, too, they heard the revelations of what they had done and what had happened in the Autonomous Prefecture, but not so much detail. It was still an inexhaustible thing for Mitsumi to be interested in what the opponents were who attacked Trinity II and what the hell the relics of the brave men they brought from the Autonomous Prefecture were.
"- Once again, after we broke up with Mizuminos, we went to get the relics of the brave men in the Autonomous Prefecture to make up for the lack of strength."
To Trinity's succinct explanation, Mizuminos nodded each and urged him to explain.
"Arriving in the Autonomous Prefecture, the person in charge there was briefed on the relics of the brave and put through the back. And at that time, a man named General of the Demon Nation attacked me and defeated me - no, I was missed and returned to the Empire today"
That is what I heard earlier, until Mizuminos and Trinity are reunited today.
Listen to him again, and Fermenia squeals.
"Attacked by a demon general, is it..."
Fermenia, too, probably thought it was strange there.
Shuiming was also surprised that demonic generals would come out directly to Trinity. Naturally, too. No one should know that Trinity II is in the Empire and that they are headed to the Autonomous Prefecture.
In other words:
"Are you saying that Reggie and his actions were being read by the Demons?
In response to Refill's question, Titania shakes her neck sideways.
"No, that didn't seem like it"
"What do you mean?
"It seems that the Demon Gentlemen did not know that there were brave men in the place where the relics of the brave were rested. For the first time in the name of Master Reggie, the Demon General realized that Master Reggie was a brave man."
"I named that demon general, Ilzar, and he said he was after the relics of the brave, too."
"I see. Was it an abdominal accumulation to get rid of what was likely to be a threat early"
Probably, Lephile's right. It is well thought out that today's brave men will try to acquire the weapons used by the old brave men. Now that the number of Demonic generals is running low, I guess we're going to get into those actions early and try to sharpen the power of the brave.
Mizumi remembers her conversation and asks Trinity 2.
"I was just wondering, did you just say 'that man' about the Demon General?
"I said, is that it?
"No, I was just wondering because naturally the word came up that would identify you as a man. Did it look that way?
"Ah... I didn't care about that. Indeed."
Trinity also looks like she was good at hearing Shuiming's words or she just realized it.
So far, the demonic and demonic generals encountered by Shuiming were previously problems identifying themselves as men, women, because they were creatures that looked far removed from humans. I don't know if there was a difference between male and female, but I didn't even think about it because my appearance deviated from that of a person.
That's what Trinity called a man. This would mean that the figure of the demonic tribe was an appearance that humans could identify with men and women.
"Sure enough, we didn't even think we were demons right after we met that demon general. He looked pretty close to a human being.... Yeah, you are. Now that I recall, I think that demon general falls into a pretty special category."
"Does that have anything to do with what Lord Reggie just said about being 'missed' also being that special?
"Yeah. That demon general was so strong. We all fought without any teeth. [M] That's about it."
"It's..."
"Is it tough even in Trinity with protection..."
Seeing the look on Trinity's face, Mizumi roars with her hands on her chin.
Sure, Trinity was an amateur until she came to this world, but neither does Shuiming think that his powers are low, etc. To date, he fought the Demons, defeated Rajas, and crossed over with Elliot. I can say that he has enough ingredients to worry about because he 'didn't get his teeth up'.
Then he snorted like Io Kuzami said he was a businessman.
"Hmm. If you take me seriously to that extent"
"Certainly not the last time... the magic used by Io Kuzami seems to have worked"
"Really?
When Shuiming asked him that, Io Kuzami showed a bare gesture holding his left hand against the fuselage,
"Sort of. Well, Demioga deserved credit for making me nod my left arm, too."
Seeing Io Kuzami's medium and secondary behavior, Trinity looks strange for some reason.
"... Yep, Mr. Io Kuzami? Weren't you sure your left eye was nagging then?
"Hmm? Did you? Then nod my left eye..."
"If you forget, you don't have to mix your evil eyes!
From the bare gesture of holding down his left arm, Shuiming puts a penetration into Io Kuzami, who once again begins to hold down his left eye. It won't even be that important, why is it that I'm sorry that I don't have to ask so much?
Contrary to what Io Kuzami says he has nothing to do with it, when Trinity,
"But it's true that that demon general was strong."
"Say what. Then isn't it like you're saying you're weaker than my guy?
"No, that's not what I meant..."
Lefir pinches his mouth at the arguments of Trinity and Io Kuzami, who are not weak when they are weak or similar to the watering theory.
"It's not revealing, Reggie. How powerful was the demon general?
"Eh."
"Isn't that why you're telling me? Miscellaneous fish. Dragon Man (Dragon Newt) and Tammy are not my enemies."
Lefir also shuts up to Io Kuzami, who is going to get in the way of the conversation. Shuiming, who sensed that the collection was just about to cease to follow, turned his gaze to Teatania somewhat.
Then she narrows her eyes and starts talking as if she remembers the time.
"The power of that demon general is a threat. He was easily bouncing through our magic and manipulating powerful red lightning that wasn't magic either. Physical abilities are amazing... well, can I finally fight them at my speed?"
"Hmm..."
Shuiming is also battling Teatania once, so her strength is stained on her. That's all she says. It would definitely mean that you are an unafraid opponent.
"So you've never cared about anything else?
Trinity II and Titania contemplate the question of Shuiming. Then there, Io Kuzami smiled insultingly,
"We need to figure out what. Isn't it important? He said he was sacrificing us, didn't he?
"Ah!"
"Speaking of which, you did..."
In the words of Io Kuzami, they both remembered. Seeing them with the momentum of realizing and pounding his hand, Shuiming made his face rude,
"Sacrifice?
"That's right. (Abbreviated)... You satisfied demioga don't have to say that humans are food. In fact, some of the people in the temple were literally feeding off that man."
"Come on, it's not a hatchet, it's a real human eater. He's..."
Both Trinity and Titania nod at the watery voice of impetus that seems to cease.
It remains for those who have absolute confidence in their power to exaggerate and strengthen themselves against those of power who are not opponents. Initially when I heard Mizuming also, I only thought so much about what I called sacrifice as probably that, but nothing but surprise that it was really a cannibal monster.
If you look at the faces of Trinity and Titania, you can see that it's getting tough. It is clear to see the expression that they witnessed the 'scattered scene of eating'.
So, Fermenia seemed to notice something and asked with a serious look.
"No way Lord Gregory and the others aren't here..."
In her words, if you put it that way, I also think Shui Ming. It was unnatural not to have your accompanying knight with you, who should normally be following Titania.
No way, tension runs on the Mizumins, but about that, Titania shakes her neck sideways.
"Don't worry, Lord White Flame. Gregory and the others are injured and remain in the Autonomous Prefecture, but there is nothing else in their lives."
"Really..."
"That's a relief."
Fermenia to relieve and Shuiming to snort with her. Fermenia is a relief for its own compatriots. Meanwhile, even as Mizuki, Gregory and the others are the ones who know and burn the care of Trinity and Rui Tree. If anything happens to them, I just don't feel good about Shuiming either.
Soon after the concern clears up, for some reason Refile roars puzzlingly.
"I get the story that it was the man-eating monster that attacked the Reggies, but the Demons aren't supposed to be the man-eating monsters in the first place?
"Yep. That made me wonder, as did Lephire. 'Cause I never heard those stories, either."
Fermenia agrees with what Lefir said. Sure, I've never heard of demons eating people, etc., whether they're monsters in different shapes from people.
Titania seemed to be the same with that,
"- I don't know either. But the fact is, what we fought for was a monster who ate people."
In the end, neither did she know about what was likely to be the answer. You wouldn't have to say too little information about this, either. I can't help but give you a clear answer.
A demonic general emerged that could be a marvel. In that way, Io Kuzami, who has waved about the arrow tip, the cannibalism, that was going to settle for this story,
"My eternal rival. You got nothing to think about?
"Why are you asking me? Don't swing at me."
"Isn't that nice? I wanted to hear your delusions."
What does Io Kuzami think and say so? It sends an interesting glance.
When Shuiming was overweighing its intentions, Trinity also embarked herself toward Shuiming, as if in tune with it.
"Mizumi, I'd like to hear it, too. What do you think of Mizumi?
"Hey, you too..."
Even Trinity gets into the conversation, and Shuiming makes a bitter noise.
For some reason there is absolute trust within the peers in Shuiming's opinions on these occasions. In fact, I often say things from a mystical point of view, because I have a lot of targeted statements - too close to the core in this setting can lead to me falling apart from who I am.
But Shuiming realizes that everyone's gaze is pointing toward him, and that there is no escape.
Shuiming sighed heavily at her noticed sigh and first glanced at Io Kuzami.
Io Kuzami reacts to that look with a mage sharp, not blame.
"What?
"... you, you just said Demioga about that demonic general. What the hell does that mean?
"Keep it that way. You guys put it this way, that's Demioga."
I wonder how far the word 'you winds' refers, and Shuiming asks Fermenia without moving her gaze.
"Fermenia. You know what a demioga is?
"... no, for that, I often do too"
Don't you see? Hold on. Now I ask Lephile, too, and she closes her eyes and shakes her head.
Both Titania and Trinity on the other side look strange. That means. Its demioga language is not commonly used in this world, and if the word refers to the truth, it is not something that Mizuki doesn't even realize.
"... it's my Yota I'm going to talk to you about. The Demon General is probably the culmination of this world's food chain."
"The pinnacle of the food chain?
"Oh."
In Trinity's retrospect, Shuiming nods. Regardless, the three girls who are residents of this world do not understand the meaning of the word food chain, though they are necked.
"Shuiming, what do you mean?
"Nothing, nothing, just like that. In a big mess, as far as our world is known at the moment, the culmination of the food chain becomes us primates of all things, human beings. But apart from that, I think there's a more powerful creature standing at the top of it."
In the world of the Mizumins - most of all the talk of what the ordinary people know - the culmination of the food chain is known to the wind: man, the primate of all things. Whether this is the focus of the story solely on the number of rights to biocide, because controversy over the apex of predators makes it more difficult for those who list the strongest biological bacteria to come out - discounts here on this.
At the moment, it is assumed that no organism exists that humans cannot fathom with or without preparation.
Of course, the only thing known and foreshadowed is the fact that there are monsters who can eat humans and easily defeat them.
Trinity, on the other hand, doesn't seem to come with a pin, even if it's said to be the pinnacle of the food chain.
"Even if they say human-eating creatures..."
"It's not, and in this case, you should think of it as a creature that isn't threatened by other animals to exist. There are beasts, dwarves, elves, dragons, and demons in this world, so it's not strange to have human-eating creatures... the point is. He's a local creature hostile to humans other than demons."
In other words, the natural enemies of humans who exist outside of the Demons, in the world of the Mizumins, around ghosts and vampires, apply to such things.
Then Titania shows you how to think deeply.
"... maybe that's true. That demon general said something like he was helping Nakshatra, the demon king. I mean, not the Demons."
"The thing is, it's not me or my servant. If it were, it would mean some outward forces endorsing the thoughts of the evil gods.... I think it's strange to say the same thing."
That's the part where Mizumi remembers to take it. The dispute between the demons of this world and other creatures is like a surrogate war between a goddess and an evil god, I reasoned when I was in the Union.
By analogy to the human body, the Demon Clan is like a virus that came in from outside the body, whereas humans and other organisms, antibodies, resist it.
If the virus is a foreign enemy that threatens the human body, all antibodies in the body must resist the virus. But in this case, some of the antibodies responded to the virus, the Demon Clan, and flipped the anti-flag.
If that hypothesis is correct, even if it is a natural enemy of a person, there is nothing else to say that it is wrong from the way it is.
Roaring with a rugged face, Io Kuzami says in an intriguing voice.
"Hmm. That's quite an interesting idea."
"Thank you."
As I duly thanked Io Kuzami and deluded him, watching Trinity on the sidelines, he was impressed with a nod of yeah.
"Uh, Trinity?
"Oh, yeah. I thought you were right. I think I almost got to the answer for being paranoid.... but Mizumi, how did you know that?
Hey, I snitched. Mizumi, who had expected to be questioned from the beginning, says without the wind to settle for Trinity's question.
"I've been reading books and stuff all over Astel's Royal Castle, so I kind of imagined it."
"That's not all."
To the word, Shuiming shall be heartbeat.
Then suddenly, for some reason, Trinity made a frigid face,
"... I knew Mizumi was on your side."
I alternate between Io Kuzami and Shuiming, feeling a little pulled.
... As far as that trick goes, that's what I mean.
I could have been deluded, but if I had been made that way, I would not have enjoyed it as Mizumi. Stand up from your chair and raise your voice to protest.
"Hey, don't! Don't treat him like that!
"'Cause come on..."
Shuiming screams, but Trinity says with a disgusting face. You look tired, but you're definitely pissed off first.
Then, is it good or bad, Io Kuzami,
"Kukukukuku... my favorite enemy (competitor). You can't resist the blood that runs through you. Anyway, you should admit you're from this side of the spectrum."
"I won't admit it! The Dark Crimson Hider doesn't even have a name! Nah!"
"Oh man. Do you still have shame? Well, you haven't either."
"What hasn't happened yet! Hey, Trinity, what are you doing? It's because of you!
"I can't hear you, I can't hear you"
When Shuiming screams, Trinity turns that way and pretends not to sound overt. I hate Trinity, with her hands on both ears, with a uh, voice.
Soothing that way (?) If so, he looks up to me like Lephire told him a secret story.
When Mizumi noticed it listened, she said,
(Swimei. That demon general, you think he's strong?
(You're eight or nine strong. A man-eater creature is, so to speak, a natural enemy of man. And)
(And?)
(When we talked about Inru earlier, you said that the half-elf and Mr. Lemaire who were at Hatsumi's would be the devil eating people.
(If you say so, you did. You sure you think you're terribly strong?...... hmm?
Are you in the middle of remembering when we talked at the fort? Refill suddenly tilts his neck with a slow and adorable trick.
(What's up?
(No, remember then that the story was about the Dragon Man (Dragon Newt) defeating the Cannibal Demon. Could be......)
Hearing the words, Shuiming makes his tired look even bluer. It is only natural that the salt waved on the green vegetables because of Inru Lame, a dragon man.
If Inru's defeated opponent is the General of the Demon Nation or his family, how much of the Dragon's true power will be fulfilled?
(Wow, it hurts... what that dragon bastard is so strong... I don't want to fight again)
(What now. Didn't I promise you a rematch?
(I don't know. I don't know. He just said it unilaterally and decided not to ask -)
No, no, no. Shuiming starts running away from reality. My heart was already a waste.
