The Guardian Hydra-- there's no official record of this guy for a reason.

Well, because...

I heard that everyone west of the barrier was wiped out by the Hydras in those days. All that was left was scorched earth. After most of the demons were killed, Rilkara fled to a place where Hydra couldn't reach. I heard that this is the ruins of Rilkara as we know it today.

I see...

　It was a wonder. Why did Lil Kara, the most powerful demon king, live in the deepest part of such an intricate ruin?
　Was it to escape from Hydra, a demon that even Rilkara could not match?

It seems that Rilkara was planning to build up her forces deep beneath the ruins in order to deal with Hydra. But before she could achieve this, she was killed by the then brave Gordova...well, that's the truth of history.

....

The Mullerian religion itself could not disclose the fact that they and their guardian killed everyone on the west side of the continent at that time. Therefore, the only record of the Hydra is in the basement of the Mullerian temple. I heard that only very high ranking priests can see it.

Such a history...

In the end, Hydra killed all the people in the west of the continent and turned the land into scorched earth, and then went to sleep again. There is no record of him being killed. Well, we are very sorry, but we can't provide you with a way to get rid of the big thing.

　I sighed heavily and crossed my arms at Silmeria's words.
　I knew that a huge demon was coming, and I knew that I had to take measures against it somehow. However, from Silmeria's point of view, she probably thinks that this situation is hopeless.
　This is an opponent that even the former demon king could not defeat.

The only thing that matters is the fact that it's a good idea. It's a good idea to have the weapons in the carriage. I'll give you the whole carriage, you can have it. Thank you for the tea. Thank you for the tea.

Silmeria...

If you can do something about the Hydra, you may continue to do so. We'll just get the hell out of here.

Yeah, I guess so.

　For Silmeria, the former Demon King Lil Cara and the current Demon King Noah Whitefield are not evaluated much differently. If the opponent that Demon King Rilkara was able to defeat, I believe that I can defeat him as well.
　That's why I'm not going to cross any dangerous bridges. I'm sure they don't want to stay in this dead zone for long, and they only think they can make a profit if they successfully intercept us.

"Hey, Silmeria.

What?　Mr. Noah.

There is one thing I need to discuss with you.

Oh. That's very interesting. You're welcome to talk business with me any time.

Yeah.

　He smiles.
　There's a huge difference between me and Demon King Lil Cara. I know that.
　That's what Puppy once said.

"Drake and Angus told me once.

"Hmm.

It's so hard that ordinary weapons can't penetrate it.

You're probably right. That's why the big monsters are so hard. That's why dragon scales sell for so much money.

What if...

　Puppy had said.
　He said that the demon wielder who called himself Lil Cara was dwarfed and vulnerable, and that the demon wielder who had been with him was dwarfed and vulnerable.
　I don't know how many levels Lil Kara was at the time as a demon user. But at the time she met Puppy, she was not at a high level. In other words, she wasn't high before she switched to being a demon user. Even if the level of the demon wielder and the level of the previous occupation were combined, only demons below that level could join her.
　And if the demon was below his level, he could certainly join them. But the probability of being able to join a demon that was higher than your level was only two rinces - just 0.2 percent.
　Furthermore, considering the results of the verification in 'Demon Fusion', he came to the conclusion that 'All demons have an upper limit of level 99'.
　Result.

''Hydra's hull, how much are you willing to pay for it?''

Are you sure about this?　No ... are you insane?

I'm not crazy. I'm sorry, but I'm not gonna let that guy beat me to it.

　I used to be a level 99 'hero'. I'm currently a level 49 'Fiend Master'.
　I'm level 148, and there's no demon I can't join.
　Even if it's St. Muller's guardian.
　At my words, Silmeria shrugs her shoulders.

It's hard to judge without seeing the actual thing. It's hard to process if it's too hard for them to do so inadvertently.

Oh, really?

I know. Especially the skin is one piece. That would take too much time and money to process. Dragon scales are sold for a high price because they are hard but easy to connect.

'Oh, I see.'

　I certainly didn't think about that.
　I was thinking that I could just prepare something hard, but then again, if you're going to sell it as a product, there's a lot of processing and stuff.
　So the price won't be very good.

Also, there's one more thing I want to check.

What?　I want to run away soon, though.

Well, it's not that big of a deal. I won't take up too much of your time.

　Well.
　I was going to talk to Jessica soon, but just in time, Silmeria is here as well, who is probably carrying one side of the story. It's probably the right place to cut it out.
　That's why I left Gilanka here.

"Jessica.

'Yes, sir!　What is it...?

How much did Silmeria pay you?
