278 274-story Makoto Tagesa explores the Demon Contine...





 If I had to describe the demon continent in one word, it would be "the gray world.
 The earth, the forest, the river, and the sky are all dark.

It wasn't like this in the past. ......
"Is that so?
 You can find a lot more information on this subject in the following article.

I'm sure you'll be able to figure out what's going on here.
"Huh. ......
 It seems that the demon continent has become this kind of landscape due to the influence of the Great Demon Lord (Iblis).
 At that time, Jonny moved his head and stared into the distance.

You're being watched.
Yes, I can feel their eyes on me.
 Yes, I can feel their eyes on me." The nervous voices were coming from Jonny and Anna, the hero of light.
 I'm not sure if it's the same for the Great Sage (Momo), but his expression is stiff.

 I don't see any reaction from my "spot the enemy" skill. .......
 I look around with my "clairvoyant" skill, but I have no idea where they're watching me from.
 Just when I thought I was in trouble.

"Don't worry. It is we, the old dragons, who have ruled this land for a long time. If you stay with me, you will not be attacked by demons.
"You're right, Shiro Dragon.
 You're too reliable.

I'm not sure what to do. I'm not sure what to do. You won't find it if you search blindly.
Wait a minute, please.
 According to the book "The Legend of Abel", the Great Demon Castle (Eden) is drifting erratically above the Demon Continent.
 If we fly around without a plan, it will drain our strength.

(Goddess of Fate, can you hear me? I want you to tell me the location of the Great Demon's Castle.
 When in doubt, ask the gods!
 I've been relying on it more and more, but ......

(............ moon ...... cot .........) ...there's ......, ............ and ...... (......)

 Huh?
 It's not the radio waves, but the telekinesis that's bad.
 I'm not sure if you can hear me or not.

(.................., .........) .......... (............)

 It's not working.
 My voice is getting distant.

"Genie? What's wrong?
Ever since I entered the Demon Continent, it's been difficult to hear the voice of the Goddess of Fate.
What? Isn't that a big problem, Master?
 The Great Sage (Momo) panicked, but this was to be expected.

 The Demon Continent is the lap of the Great Demon Lord.
 I've been told by the Goddess of Fate (Ila) that there are wards covering the continent.
 She is probably working hard to tune the frequency of her telekinesis right now.

Let's go down to an appropriate place. There are some things I need to check.
"Okay.
 Mr. Hakuryu landed in an open space nearby.
 We descend from his back to the gray earth.

"This is .......
 A demon continent.
 Once again, the world is gray as far as the eye can see.
 I feel as if my eyes have lost their sense of color.
 But the most important thing is .......

"Dea, the Great Spirit of Water.
 I summoned her, the Undine.

"Yes, my king.
How is ...... here? 
 The most important thing for me is that it doesn't affect my 'spirit wielder' skills.

It's not bad. The water spirits are fine.
"I see.
 I breathe a sigh of relief.


 It seems to be different from the Underwater Temple, where there was a ridiculous ward that refused to allow the existence of all spirits.


 In the Demon Continent, spirit users are not a problem.
 Now, what about the rest of us?

Wind spirits, earth spirits, and fire spirits seem to be fine.
 Jonny said, his long hair fluttering.
 He can handle all four spirits.
 I envy you. .......

I'm feeling more empowered than usual!
 The Great Sage (Momo) is waving his arms about.
 I'm not sure what to make of it, but I think it's a good idea.

 As for Mel, he has always lived in the Demon Continent, so there is no problem at all.
 So, the biggest problem is .......

I don't really like it here. ......
 After all, Anna, the hero of light, was incompatible with the demon continent.


 You don't look well.

"Why don't we take a break in the nearest place? It's better to get used to the environment of the Demon Continent.
 I suggested.
 It's a good idea to get used to the environment of the demon continent.

Then find someplace suitable for camping at .......
 When Johnny, the camping expert, was looking around.



"Mr. Helpmelk!



 I'm not sure if you've ever heard of it, but it's a great idea.

「「「「!?」」」」
 You'll be able to find a lot more information on the web.
 I'm not sure what to do.

(Ghost)......?
 It was a boy with a transparent body.
"Enemy? I braced myself, but from the look on his face, he seemed harmless.

You've ...... seen him before?
 Mel nodded his head.
 He doesn't remember.
 The ghost boy had a sad expression on his face.

Haha......, isn't that right. It's been 200 years ago. He saved my life and my sister's before she died. I'm sure you'll be glad to know that I'm not the only one who has a problem with this. But Lord Helpmelk saved us. I'll never forget that favor!
"Oh, I see. ......
 Mr. Mer is looking uncomfortable.
 If it was 200 years ago, it's no wonder he doesn't remember.

I'm sure you'll be happy to hear that. This continent has been peaceful since the world was ruled by the Great One. Even we, the weak ghosts, can live safely here. You're welcome.
(......)
 Mel looks at me.
"What do you want? What do we do?" His eyes were saying.  

 At that moment, a letter appeared in the air.
RPG Player" skill.



"Would you like to stop by the village in the Demon Continent?
 Yes.
 No, I don't.



(......) Hmm, what should I do?

It could be a trap.
 It's a demon village after all.
 Ghosts are said to be weak, but they can still be dangerous if attacked by many.
 But .......

I'm not sure what to say.
I'm sure you'll be able to find something that works for you.
 I'm not sure if it's a good idea, but it's a good idea.

 But in the end, they agreed with me.
 If it comes to it, we can just ride away on Mel.

"Those people are your friends, aren't they? Please come this way.
 We were led by a ghost boy deep into the dark forest.



 This way, Hakuryu-sama.



This way, Hakuryu-sama.
 What we came to was a simple village surrounded by a simple fence.

 I had thought it was a village of ghosts, but the inhabitants were of various races.
 Orcs, goblins, skeletons, and other demons.
 But there was one characteristic.

The ones here are non-combatants.
 I nodded in response to Jonny's murmur.

 In the village, there were young ones, old ones, and women.
 There were no strong-looking demons.
 It wasn't a trap, apparently.

 As I started to walk around the village.

"Makoto-san.
 He grabbed me by the clothes.
 It's Anna, the hero of light.

"What's wrong?
What do you mean, "What's wrong?" ............
 This is a demon village. You're being careless! She whispered angrily to me.
 The Great Sage (Momo) was also looking at me anxiously.

 But they are the only two who are confused.

 The Shiro Dragon (Meru) is being greeted by a demon tribe that seems to be the village chief.
 The inhabitants of the village are looking at Mel with awe, which suggests that the old dragons are special.

 Jonny had already gone for a walk, as if he had judged that the village was not dangerous.

 It's my first time in this magical continent, so I want to explore it.
 A new continent is exciting, isn't it?

(............! (............!!!)



 At that moment, I heard a noise in my head.

 It was probably the Goddess of Fate (Ila), but I couldn't hear her voice.
 It seems that the tuning is not yet done well.  
 Hang in there, Ila.

(............! ............!

 I feel like Master Ila is angry.
 But I can't help it, because I can't hear you.
 Because I can't hear you.

Anna, Momo. "Anna, Momo, you're only going to get tired if you're uptight now, so let's rest your body and your mind first.
...... Huh, you're too carefree, Makoto.
...... What kind of nerves do you have, Master?
 I was trying to be as considerate as possible, but they both gave me the cold shoulder.
 Sad.

 I took my time looking around the village.
 The demons in the village generally liked me because I was one of Mer's friends.
 The Old Ones are great.

 I looked for food, weapons, and armor, but there were no stores for people from outside.
 The village is poor and seems to be self-sufficient.

 The only thing we could do was to gather information, so we had a chat with a young demon who came to talk to us.

 However, this was a small village on the edge of the demon continent.

How are you doing?
 He told us that they don't have much interaction with other villages, and that their days are unchanging.

 What I found interesting.
 In the course of the conversation, I heard him say that he was at peace thanks to Daimajou.

 Apparently, before the appearance of the Great Demon Lord, even though the demon race was strong, there were conflicts among the demon lords and it was difficult for the weaker demon races to live in the world.
 However, about 100 years ago, the Great Demon King appeared and unified the world with all the Demon Lords.

 Since then, the world has become a peaceful place for the demons.

 When I looked next to me, I saw Anna, the hero of light, and Momo, the great sage, with indescribable expressions on their faces.
 We're going to defeat the Great Demon King.
 To them, we're the villains who will bring chaos to the world.
 The two earnest guys are concerned about that.

 But there's something else I'm worried about.
 I felt a slight discomfort while talking to the inhabitants of this village.

 I didn't notice it at first because the reaction was so faint.
 However, upon closer inspection, it was definitely 'it'.  



 They are ------ enchanted.



 I was able to realize this thanks to the "charm" skill I was given as a guardian knight of the Moon Priestess (Freyae).
 Fascination is a kind of brainwashing in the previous world.

 So the words of the inhabitants are not always true.
 More importantly, if the inhabitants of the village are mesmerized, it is doubtful that the village is truly peaceful.

 I wanted to stay at least one night, but it would be dangerous to rest here.
 I have experience in the Land of the Moon (Rafiloig).

 Come to think of it, I wonder how the queen I met in Rafiloig is doing?
 It's hard to imagine that she could have charmed the inhabitants of such a small village. .......
 I'm wondering if there's a connection.
 I'm curious if there's a connection.
 I'd like to hear what Mel has to say about it later.

(Anyway, let's not stay here too long: ......)

 That's what I've decided.
 It's time for me to leave.

 Finally, I casually asked a question.

"By the way, there are few young men in this village. There are many children and old people. Is there a reason for this?
 I thought they were migrant workers in this poor village.

He said, "Yes, ......, it's a big problem. It seems that the Demon Lord has been defeated by some brave men in the western continent. ......
"..................
 The answer that came back was something related to us.

 Sweat trickled down my cheeks.
 I'm not sure what to make of it.
 I have to make sure that Anna doesn't find out that I'm a hero.

 But the next line blew away all such carefree thoughts.

"Thanks to you, warriors from all over the continent are gathering at the Dragon King's call. Thanks to you, warriors from all over the continent have been summoned by the Dragon King. With an army of one million, they will wipe out the human race in the Immortal King's domain.
"What?
 I'm not sure what to do.

 I'm not sure if this is a good idea or not, but it's a good idea.



 --A million demon kings attacked from the Demon Continent, and the Savior defeated them. The place of victory was Sinfonia, the royal capital of the Land of the Sun (Highland).



 This is the most famous saga of the Saviors (Abel).

(One after another, ......)
 I want to hold my head.
 They won't let me slow down.


 The next event in history is already in motion.
