Norzuri threw the thing he was dragging in one hand forward.

　It was the remnants of an advanced automatic doll disguised as a human being that fell with a crunching sound.

"...... is still your 'true enemy'?
'Ho, you know. The intelligence capabilities of people on the ground are not to be underestimated.

　Upon receiving my words, Norsuli raised the edge of his mouth.

　It wasn't too much of a surprise to find out that the people Algernon had surrounded himself with weren't human.

　If it was the true enemy that sent the Night Ripper (Night Ripper)--the one who sent the automaton, and if the source of that information was Algernon, it's not hard to imagine that there is a connection between him and the automaton.

　And if Algernon is the only one who succeeded in passing through the Demon King's Castle by stealing the Demon General's eyes, then there's only one conclusion now.

As you guys knew, the self-proclaimed humans here were impersonating them. I'm sure they took advantage of the fact that the administrator's attention was distracted by the commotion of the magical beast Skoll and all that.
No way they've all been taken care of already: ......
No, this is the only one that was on the premises. I'm sure it's a good idea to have a good time with them. It's a long time ago that the former or the former people have been destroyed.
...... what?

　With a naturalness so natural that he almost didn't hear it, Norzuri rambled on about something that he couldn't believe his ears.

　He said he was the original person?　Where do you think I was?
　...... Don't tell me you're in "The Ark of the Elements" (this dungeon)?

　Just after I stopped thinking about which one I should collect first - the question that had unexpectedly increased or the second question I had planned from the beginning - my right eye suddenly began to heat up violently.

'Gah ......!'
'　Luke!

　The right eyeball loses its shape as if it were to pop and transforms into a mass of magical power that resembles a blue flame.

　This is definitely the "Right Eye of Wisdom" - but why did it go into effect on its own?

　However, you can't allow yourself to surrender to the confusion, and the right eye sends a strong danger signal to your brain.

"Get down, Garnett!

　The body moves almost reflexively.

　He pushes the garnet that rushed up to him with all his strength and pushes down on Populus and various other nearby populaces.

　In the next moment, a single ray of light traced the surface of the ground, walls and structures, and its trajectory exploded, scattering tremendous heat.

　The heat ray released by the demonic beast Skol in the recent battle, a flash of super-dense magical power that was very similar to that.

　Starting from the point of impact, the wooden walls and structures begin to burst into flames.

　Garnett was stunned and frozen for a couple of seconds, but immediately realized the unusual situation and jumped up and drew Mithril's sword and released it.

''...... Averted, I see. Nevertheless, you are indeed quick to respond. You were right to turn back.

　A man's voice comes from the direction of the flash.

　A short distance from the living quarters, above a large tree (mane) on the main street.

　A man sits on a thick, protruding branch, his right arm, with its doll-like joints exposed, thrusts out.

　The palm of his hand was pierced with a hole in it, and it was easy to see through his right eye that the air around the hole was shimmering like a flame.

"Stay back, Luke!　He's mine!
f*cking idiot. You should be the one to step back.

　Just as Garnett was about to run out, a thin layer of ice covered the entire area around him in an instant, cooling the burnt ground and the walls that had begun to burn in the blink of an eye.

　Needless to say, it was the icy norzuri that unfolded the ice.

　The ice crawling up from underneath his feet enveloped his entire body, forming an ice armor and a great sword.

　In the process of shaping it to resemble metal armor down to the smallest detail, it seems that the character of the demon general Norzuri can be seen.

"Whaaaat?　I've fought his kind before: ......
It's mostly light infiltration, right?　Those are formulaic specifications. It's an order of magnitude different in direct combat capability than the long-term infiltration specs.

　Just before the helmet part was formed and his face was about to be hidden, Norseli sent a mocking glance at Garnett.

''Besides, if it wasn't for Luke's [Restoration] ability in the White Wolf Forest, you would have turned into a piece of cruel flesh anyway.
"Nah, ......!　What's the matter with you? ......!
It's an objective performance comparison. If it's not, prove it. What's more, you're conveniently hidden in the background.

　Without waiting for an answer, Norzuri runs at a sprint.

　A block of ice is generated in the direction of his movement, creating an ice bridge diagonally from the surface of the earth as he runs toward the automatic doll in the tree.

　The automaton coldly emits a heat beam of interception, and the Norzuri's ice shield catches the glow from the front.

　It's a good thing that you're able to get the best out of your own personal life.

　I'm sure you'll be pleased with the results.

　As if Norzli had even anticipated this, he kicked the ice cubes generated at his feet in the air, changed his trajectory, avoided the heat ray, and landed on a thick branch where the automaton was.

　After a high-level reading, Norsuli and the automatic doll shifted into a white battle in the tree.

　However, I can't just keep losing consciousness to it.

　My 'right eye' caught the approach of the one that Norseli was talking about.

'Up there!　Garnett!

　A small shadow descends soundlessly and swings two daggers.

　The mithril sword held out by the garnet catches its blade, and immediately afterwards a spinning kick diagonally upwards blows the petite shadow away.

　However, it didn't do much damage either, and the petite assassin skillfully deflected the momentum of the kick and stopped after a few lightning-fast backward spins on the surface of the ground.

''Haha!　It's true!　'The Right Eye of Wisdom'!

　The doll, in the form of a petite girl, smiled a smile that forced her to open her eyes and doubt the existence of reason, and she spun the two daggers she was holding in her forward hand and replaced them with her reverse hand.

　The Night Ripper (Night Ripper) had also disguised herself as a light-worker girl, but her physical performance greatly surpassed Garnett and the other silver-winged knights.

　That doll in front of me should be considered to have the same level of performance.

''If you don't want to die, leave your 'right eye' behind. I'll gouge out the bones around it and bring it back to you!

　With night on the horizon, dazzling flashes of light and black smoke rise up in various parts of the Asropolis.

　Are these same automatic dolls all over the place engaged in sabotage?

　If the testimony that there was only one doll in the living quarters is correct, then it's not surprising that everything else has been sent to destroy it.

　The previously described fire extinguishing system by the aquatic demon tribe was triggered, and the water column shot high up from the lake around the island, and a huge amount of water poured down on the burning buildings in the living quarters.

''Do you think they'll let it happen, human-modders!
Which one is the Modoki?

　Two girls trying to run out to close the gap that was opened.

　Immediately after, I was startled by the information that popped into my 'right eye' and I couldn't help but scream out loud!

Stop!　Don't move!

　The garnet stops moving with a jolt.

　A black shadow floats on the surface of the ground, growing in size in the blink of an eye.

　It could be a foreign object carried by a huge water column for firefighting.

　Or perhaps an intruder who used the water flow of the water column to get in.

'Huh?'

　By the time the girl-shaped doll guessed, it was too late.

　The sail(s) of the sail(s) that hovered in the air on the high arcing water current(s) crushed the girl-shaped doll in front of Garnet's eyes.

''Gehaa!''
What?

　Garnett exclaims that it's too much.

　The ship continues to slide with the momentum of the landing, scraping deep into the surface of the ground, and comes to a halt when it hits a tree (mane) from the side.

　Then the hull of the ship is reduced to magical power and disappears, and the people on board jump off or roll down.

　The one who fell down first is, in a sense, the one closest to me--the one I'm most familiar with.

Mark!　What the hell is this?　How could you?!
