235 God And The Dragon Part 3
"Hmm... after all, there was nothing."
"Mm-hmm. I can't say I could have turned everything around perfectly, but to that extent, it would be an error. In conclusion, this place still seems to have completely lost its function as a labyrinth."
Looking at the big hole in front of him, Hildegard concluded so.
Though I don't feel any signs of death from it, I would only assume that it is more so than the hole isn't blocked.
There are just a few things that bother me.
One of them is that there should have been a hole in the wall as well, but that's gone.
To see how the wall looks without a scratch, it's not possible because of my mind.
And while the hole in the floor remains open, it's one of those things that bothers me that I feel smaller than I remember.
Because there are still quite a few large holes on the scale, this one may be because of me if I'm told it's my fault... but it's more than likely not.
Because considering that the labyrinth was working for a while now, although it does lose its function, those two things come with an explanation.
"Hmmm... for now, let's see."
With those words, a solid scar lingered on the wall the moment Soma basically waved his sword.
Long, deep stuff on the side.
Naturally, there's no indication that it's going to fix...
"In the meantime, all I can think about so far is that the power of that evil god was replacing the nucleus of the labyrinth."
"Hmm? Is that possible?
"I've never seen it in person, so I can't say for sure, but from what I can see, the nucleus of the labyrinth is like a device that supplies the labyrinth."
"Breaking the nucleus also breaks the labyrinth because it maintains the labyrinth by its power"
"It doesn't seem uncommon to have anything that just seems spatially expanded. If you think it's back to normal because the supply of power has been cut off, well, it's going to collapse."
It's just an assumption, of course.
However, at that time it did seem that the power of the Evil God was still there, and if by the passage of time it was completely fogged and the supply to this place stopped with it, it would explain the whole thing.
"Then what does it mean that the top usually moves as a labyrinth over the fifty tiers?
"That's simply pulling power from somewhere else, I guess. Instead... the labyrinth here may only have been above the fifty levels."
That means sealing a shard of evil god power, which expanded about fifty more hierarchies below.
Further, by circulating power, we keep it from overflowing, and then creating powerful demons, we keep it away from sealing.
That's a good enough story.
"When I heard about you here before, I thought I heard something different.
"I only got it from the information that was left behind, too, so if it was intentionally being lied to, I just don't get it."
In the first place, it is said that ancient ruins and labyrinths were created just before and after the age when evil gods were raging.
No wonder people were able to do that at the time.
"Well, I just figured that out, so I'm not talking about it. Whatever it takes to create a labyrinth, it's not lost."
"You're just going to be able to explain this situation. Well, if it's refreshing, I've never been over it."
I really don't know if that's right.
But if you decide to be, at least you won't have to worry about holding your head about why this happened.
"Well... and that means the investigation here is over, too. Well, in the end, I was just walking, rather than investigating."
"Well, nothing's the best part, and you're in a good mood."
"That's true... but it's too bad I couldn't try the sharpness of this..."
That being said, it was the sword that had just been wielded earlier that Soma turned her gaze.
Hildegard remembers how it looked.
Speaking of which, I haven't waved a sword properly in the last year or so.
"Hmm... do you use it in college skills, etc.?
"No, I use it, but why not just try the sharpness?
"Well, if they tried it, there'd be a massacre... oh, I thought it was oddly ridiculous, but that's why it happened"
"Um, I was wondering if there would be some fighting..."
The soma that exhales with its words was apparently genuinely depressed for the price.
I thought that was unusual because the very appearance of Soma being depressed is not so uncommon, for example about magic, but it is very rare to show such appearance by involving the sword.
Or I feel like it's the first time in this world.
"... such a good sword, I guess... I've been using it for another year, huh? It's not like we're new."
"Yes, but like I said, I haven't had a lot of fights since I got this. So I guess. Even when we got it over there, unfortunately, we hardly encountered any demons on our way home."
"You're probably the one who tells me you're unlucky that you didn't meet a demon..."
But at that time, I didn't really care that there would be times when I could shake it, but it seems that I've been wanting to use it lately.
"If so, the sword is still good enough for you to want to use,"
"Don't deny it's a good sword, but when you ask for care, they ask you how comfortable you are to use it. It is the other request that I really want to hear what I think when I use it. Well, while they kept saying that, I really wanted to use it..."
"Hmm..."
The person Soma is asking to take care of would mean that Dwarf.
I heard about you coming to Wang Capital about six months ago with a few of your buddies, and I actually met you once.
I don't know what to say, but in many ways, I thought you might feel comfortable with Soma.
"I don't know about you, but one of these days I'll have a chance. Instead, it's only miraculously that noisy noise hasn't happened in the last two years. Isn't that a foretaste of something extra big, a topic among the people involved?
"You're being disrespectful. Do not treat my life like a being that brings in disaster. By and large, who is the person involved"
"Let's say something similar. You should try to remember what you've been up to. That's not what the people involved meant, is it? Especially now that we're gathered in the king's capital."
While saying such an appropriate thing, look around the bottom layer all the way and make sure that the problem still seems to be gone.
I even went down to the big hole just in case, but nothing wrong with this again.
Because it is a vast place of fifty tiers, I wonder if it can be reused for something, etc., but for the time being, there seems to be no danger.
"Hmmm... I guess it's a good thing there's no danger..."
"What, you seem unhappy?
"No, there would have been a powerful demon there when we came before?
On the contrary there, especially demons that have come out downstairs are like destroying even a bad town if you let one go, but dare to listen in silence.
The weird criterion of soma strength is now.
Perhaps by being suddenly stronger, I'm still unfamiliar with that feeling, or vice versa, I'm accustomed to what I'm feeling right now... with it.
"Hmm, we're not going back to trying out, are we?
"Um, that's a different matter. or the material that would have been taken from that demon."
"Oh, I see... that's what this is all about"
That's all I was good at, because I immediately guessed that you wanted to use it for arecole to use magic.
What Soma wants now wasn't hard either, as it would end up concentrating there.
"That's what it is. Hmm... I should have peeled it off at that time."
"I couldn't afford that."
"It is... is that it? But if you think about it, you didn't defeat everything then, did you?
"Well yeah. Whether it was done or not, I wasn't looking to reach it in the shortest possible time."
"So why can't we find the retrieval? Doesn't mean Hildegard took him down, does it?
"Yeah? What are you talking about? So I'm telling you, there's no more labyrinth function here, is there? More than the labyrinth has stopped functioning, the remaining demons have been wiped out."
Unlike the demons outside, what emerges in the labyrinth is basically what the labyrinth is producing.
Although there are various hypotheses and no conclusions as to how, it is commonly assumed that it was manifested by the power of the labyrinth, and that it is a pseudo-life close to fantasy species and the like.
It is said that the material and the like can be taken because the force has been immobilized and materialized.
Most of them don't care because there's no difference with the demons outside.
"No, you wouldn't normally know it instead of caring. At least this is the first time my life has ever known. What is common in the first place?
"Of course it's common among the people studying it. Hmm, but it's certainly a professional story, so I don't know what I don't know... well, did I ever tell Soma?"
"How do you know such a strange thing?
"... because I've wasted a lot of time. Sometimes I thought it might help, so I bought a lot of things."
Incidentally, once the function of the labyrinth has ceased, the demons will disappear because the supply of power that is holding the form of the demons will cease.
That's the same thing that makes you nutritious.
As a result, it is no longer possible to retain its shape and it disappears.
Although technically this is a hypothesis, it is true that no demons have ever been found from the labyrinth where the nucleus was destroyed.
For this reason, it is said that it would be at least close to the fact, and that it would be due to similar reasons to disappear if demonic bodies were left alone in the labyrinth.
"By the way, the story is a little different, but earlier I told you that God doesn't completely perish that way, right?
"On the contrary, it has changed a lot, or I feel like I'm back, but what's wrong with that?
"No, it doesn't mean it has nothing to do with what we're talking about, does it? Because God naturally has power. Well, needless to say now... do you know how the treatment of that power will change if God is completely doomed and not?
"Asking so, however, changes... no, it doesn't necessarily. Including that, I suppose. Even so, if it's not irrelevant to the current story... Hmm. Well, in the meantime, if it were completely doomed, would it just vanish, be it the power of God?
"Right. Exactly."
Unless in some way it is already a conversion, but if it was as a force itself, it would disappear as it was.
This is the same for shelter, etc.
Coverage is maintained if it is simply temporarily dead, but if it is completely doomed, the coverage is also extinguished.
Because God's given protection is God's power in the broad sense.
"Hmm... Is there a reason why protection cannot be distinguished by skill appraisal?
"Well, yeah. It simply feels like we're sharing power. There's no way I can recognize you as a skill."
"I see... by the way, it's fine to show off your knowledge, but do you realize that you mouthed yourself one answer that my senior didn't answer right now?
"……… Ah"
"Ha... oh man. Well, it's the same as I was thinking, so I don't mind."
He turned a frightened gaze and wanted to hold his head that he had done it.
She said she was able to make it look good around the corner.
No, but I'll get my mind back from here.
Yes, this is where it's important.
"As it were, well, I mean, that's not what I meant. If God doesn't die completely, his power will remain."
"Hmm... but then I feel like there's one weird thing out there, right?
"Fragments of the power of evil gods, huh?
"Hmm. So the evil gods are not doomed, are they?
To the words, Hildegard shrugged his shoulders.
Because Hildegard doesn't know much about it either.
The evil god must have completely perished.
That's for sure because I got confirmation.
But then it becomes strange that there are shards of the power of the Evil God.
"Well, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah.
"... ho? I think I heard words that would make all the stories so far meaningless.
"Oh, calm down. It doesn't make any sense, and in short, I want to say that the fact that the Evil God is said to have completely perished, but that shards of Evil God's power exist, is all that matters. Well, I'm going to leave that aside for once... but I was very concerned when I heard a story from you before."
"Hmm...... what's that?
It's not about the demon gods and their resurrection.
According to what I heard from Soma, when reviving the demon gods and dogs, he used shards of the power of the evil gods in their nucleus.
I don't mind that in and of itself...... the problem is how to get it.
Did you happen to get it rolling on the side of the road?
I don't know.
"There's no way that's possible. I thought you said that, too. He said he found out at a glance that it wasn't normal. But there's no way it's falling like that."
"It was a lie, does that mean?
"No, maybe it's true. There's no reason to lie in that situation. But then, why did it happen... maybe it was just after you blew this place up?
"Hmm... you didn't seem to have heard it until the exact time of obtaining it, but you did, recently, talk about saying something like that"
I guess Soma also understood what Hildegard was trying to say.
The face I had in mind told me it was a possible story.
In other words, it is a story of whether the shards of power that Soma missed were jumping there.
Of course, it's not a physical story.
It means, as Soma was jumping into the Witch Forest.
"And if that's true, it's hard to think of one thing that you missed. I think it's more likely that it's been subdivided and jumped everywhere."
"Hmm... If so, I feel just some responsibility. It's like I'm the cause."
"No, you don't have to worry about it. I mean, that's not what I'm talking about."
The majority is no different that Soma wiped it out, and if we get that far, even though the original is a shard of the power of the Evil God, that would just be a strong force.
It's just the power of God, not oriented, just strong.
Where what was to be obtained by chance used it, it was only the person's responsibility.
So what Hildegard is trying to say is that there is Soma's responsibility there, or something like that... even though the power is just strong, the original God is the God who bisected the numerous powers in this world.
"Therefore, with it, or for a moment, you might be able to imitate power. As I said earlier, God's blessing is God's power, and although blessing is not a skill, it also makes it easier for you to express your skills."
As far as Hildegard thinks, there is only one way for Soma to be able to use magic.
It is about using the logic of magic, and being able to use it with power and force.
Unfortunately, however, so far the reason for the devil's guidance has gone nowhere.
It's a situation where you can't even find one clue where in the world to look for it.
But if you don't need to find it in the first place...
"Hmm... I see."
When Soma's eyes understood the story completely, a strong light was lit.
Momentum is likely to go looking for it as it is.
But.
"It's been two years since then. They must have recovered it."
Or I might not have known if I had told you this earlier, but it was only recently that Hildegard came to this thought.
There's no way I can do this, such as tell you something you haven't thought of.
Still, I told him that it's unlikely that it could be anywhere.
"Isn't it better than looking for clues in the dark clouds?
"Hmm... Is it likely worth a thought..."
Hildegard gently loosens his mouth to the appearance of Soma, who said so and began to think about it.
Apparently, it could be recovered safely.
If there is just a problem, is it likely that Soma will go looking for it as it is?
Now what happened to this one, Hildegard looked up into the dim space and began to contemplate it just like Soma did.
