168 Remnants Of The Demon King'S Army
Looking at the sight under his eyes, Soma exhaled.
Rolling at the end of his gaze is a man wearing a black robe.
He is one of those who has been bombing all over the city for some time now.
Soma decided that the person was so because he has been attacking or denying to see this one.
This situation is irrelevant, but there's no way they're going to attack us if they do something nasty.
And it came to pass, that he and the others spoke in plural form, because this was the second person, and the sound had not yet stopped.
Well, even if I missed it, I was a little too frequent to think I was doing it alone.
The place was fragmented, too, but we don't need to consider much about it.
From the beginning, Soma didn't think it was something that was directly caused.
No, technically, since we stumbled upon one of the scenes where the explosion seems to have occurred?
The damage there was obviously too small for the sound.
There are holes about the size of fists in some parts of the building and on the ground, and it is too much to try to do something about the city with it itself.
In the first place, trying to do something about the city is too far-fetched a way.
So Soma considered it a positive move in a double sense.
The explosion is meant to hide some kind of fate, and even remotely the explosion itself.
Nevertheless, there's no way I know exactly what fate is.
For this reason, he first acted to crush the Yang Dynamics first, searching for a place near the wall that was likely to be a blind spot.
The reason I did that was because I thought that after multiplying this noise by something, I was just trying to get out there.
It was a hit, and I could find it twice.
"Hmm... is there someone else to think about based on the frequency of the sound?
I don't know what way you're remotely detonating it, but it's not infinite either, beyond the existence of some kind of trick.
And there's no way you can interrupt that more than being positive, so then it should need to happen at some determined interval.
I guessed from it that the number of positive movements derived by Soma was four.
I mean, if everything's right, someone other than Soma caught one... well, it would be Sheila and the others.
If they are, it should be possible enough to reach a conclusion similar to that of Soma.
"If there's a problem, I don't know where Sheila and the others found it, but... well, what can we do about it?"
That's because, as a matter of course, you can't be hiding in a nearby place, even though you're purposefully hiding.
In fact, Soma is discovering the two of them in a completely different place, and if he knows where he discovered the other, he's likely to be able to guess where the last one would be.
It's still possible to some extent, but it's still a big mess, and I don't know which one is left above all else.
We probably caught him at the same time, so if we're lucky enough to rendezvous, it'll be easier.
"Are we on our way for now?"
Squirting, Soma took on the rolling man.
It's just a hassle to walk with, and you can't crush valuable sources, so it's the guild you're headed to.
But as he tried to walk out, Soma accidentally turned his gaze to the other side.
I tilted my neck in that way because I felt like I felt something.
Either that or maybe I should have said hunch or something... but naturally, that's not all I know what it's about.
Though I was a little concerned, when I exhaled to see if there was anything I could do, Soma let the walk resume.
"How to call it..."
Stina was narrowing her eyes reflexively to the words the man had spoken.
The arm that grips the spear without knowing, the force is strong.
That's because only a limited number of people spoke, and they weren't supposed to know it in the first place.
Nevertheless, it is something that was somewhat predictable, so it is not very shocking.
Still, I was somewhat surprised because I just didn't expect to know the name.
"It was the remnant of the party, which is reasonably as expected...... did you jerk off over there?
"Shit, I still don't remember, or... well, I only saw your face once, and you didn't tell me, so naturally in a way"
"So you remember... I'm even suspicious that you recognized him in the first place. You remembered better than that."
"Well, to be honest, I was surprised too... but there was still respect for the Lord and so on, I guess. Even if it's tentative and the object is the opponent."
"... Really?"
If you know that much, the converse is quick.
Because there is no need for any forgiveness.
"I'm not going to forgive you from the start. Of course, I'm gonna miss it."
"Huh, that's a terrible story. One of the few people left in the corner, you can miss it here."
"... what are you talking about? Surely Stina and the others must be alike. I'm not going to deny that now."
But that and this is a different story.
In the first place, Stina and the others only got together because they were worth using each other and wouldn't get in the way.
If there's a conflict of interest, it just crushes it, as it should.
"I know that, so I guess Omei's been after Stina's neck for a long time."
"... Huh, find out, huh? Fine. But you... do you really understand what I was trying to do?
"Yes......?
So I accidentally tilted Stina in the neck because I didn't think that was just a begging for life or a buying of time.
It's like, really, I don't know what this one needs to know.
It seemed that way.
Nevertheless, it's something I shouldn't say I need to worry about.
If you stick your spear out like this, it doesn't matter what you were trying to do.
but.
"... I went out of my way to put it that way. If it's no big deal, it's no big deal, right?
"I don't feel the same after all...... well, there's no problem. If you look at this, you won't even be able to say that."
So it was the pitch-black sphere that the man took out of his nostrils.
Stina, wary of what she was going to do for a moment, exhales small at it, which was only as expected.
If it was a lie to keep this one alert, it was because I was alert.
But if it's what you expected, you don't have to think about it.
It was also somewhat discouraging at the same time.
"Did Omei take it after all?... So? What's wrong with that?
"What, you knew it and you noticed it... but then you know what I was up to?
"What... weren't you testing that power?
"Right, that's not wrong. So, what was I doing that for?
"No, I don't care what they say."
There's no way I know that.
Instead, how do you know and naturally create an atmosphere like this?
Tilt his neck...... apparently the man also noticed that he didn't pretend he didn't get it.
I just need to know why, lurk my eyebrows.
"... maybe you really don't get it? It's meant to be used when attacking Demon King's Castle, isn't it? I don't think I can control it in detail, but it'll be enough to confuse me."
"... Yes? Attack the Castle of the Demon King, right?
It was water entirely in the sleeping ear.
I do use it to confuse you, as predicted.
But to do something guerrilla with it, the word "attack" would be strange.
Nevertheless, I don't know what that means.
I mean...
"Rebellion again, you mean?
"... apparently you really don't know. I heard that the remnants of the party and their collaborators scattered all over the place have been contacted..."
"Oh...... that would be easy. Stina didn't have a way of contacting me."
Those who are supposed to succeed are all dead.
That can't possibly be contacting.
"... is it relevant that you might have targeted that girl?
"That's right. I'm the biological weapon that we created. It was supposed to be used during the last revolt, but it was stolen... well, that doesn't matter. The only thing that can be done is to attack a suicide bomber and freeze the perimeter, but the power should be considerable, and it should be useful enough. Now you know why I tried to recover it, right?
"Right...... Enough is enough"
"Then give me a break."
"Which means Omei isn't worth keeping alive."
"... what?
Was the word unexpected enough, the man gives a flashy, dumb look?
But it's not a joke or anything.
Stina only looks down at the man with cold eyes.
"... hey, you know what I mean? If you kill me here, the rebellion..."
"Where there wasn't another omee, it wouldn't make any difference whether it was successful or not, would it?
"I'm not willing to cooperate, you mean...?
"I didn't get a request to cooperate in the first place. Then it's only natural that we're not obliged to cooperate."
"... I mean, are you going to betray me...!?
"You're not picking up on your own. That's why you haven't asked me to help you, so there's no betrayal or anything."
That's a trick, if you call it a trick.
From one side, I guess it does also mean betrayal.
But.
"Stina's not trying to get in the way of another rebellion. I just... I don't care about omee. I don't like the way it's done, that's all."
"............... are you serious?
"Do I look like I'm joking?
"... Shit"
Apparently, it conveyed that I meant it.
I narrow my eyes just a little bit and put my strength into my arms, remembering some relief in that.
All you have to do is stick out this arm just a little bit and you're really done.
There's no room for something extra.
"... by the way, one last thing I want to ask you, what didn't you like about me? You ever bother your surroundings indiscriminately? Or... have you ever tried to use a weapon there that even seemingly looks like a child?
"... it doesn't matter what. … but if you dare to answer, all of Omei will answer."
"Really... did you wake up to the spirit of fraternity? - It's too late for that."
"... eh"
I knew that was the word to make a gap here.
I know, and I still reacted.
But still, there shouldn't have been a problem.
Because no matter what the man did, he was confident that he could cut it off.
So... the next action a man took was as if he hadn't expected it.
"Ha, I didn't intend to try this... can't I help it if it gets here? Sounds like you knew the effect of this, but you didn't know the real use, did you? This is really... this is how I use it."
That's what the man did: activate the pitch-black sphere while holding it in his hand.
But it is not necessary to think that there is no point in this place where such a thing has been done.
I thought you even harassed me at the end of the day, saying it was a real use, etc - my head turned bright white at what happened instantly.
When a magic formation appears directly beneath a man, something crawls out of it at the next moment - as it were, eating the man.
"... what?
I don't know what that means, but I still get a glimpse of a few things by instinct, not reason.
The magic formation and something that crawled out of it were created by the magic guide used by the man… that is, that the array is a demon.
And.
That there is no matter how you scratch it, you have no chance of winning.
????????
In front of Stina, who unconsciously trembles her body, dyed her whole body in pitch black. With a voice that does not sound, she roared as it spread the wings of her back.
