Chapter 86 – Departure
As soon as I rode the teleport magic circle, I immediately arrived at the port city.
Well, it’s nothing else, it’s a teleport, so it’s natural to arrive so quickly… It feels like I’m playing a game rather than going on a trip because I move around other cities in an instant like this.
The game is fine, but that… What to say…
It felt like the romance of travel had disappeared.
[To bring romance to the journey to subdue the demon king… You really went as far as you could.]
‘Did I relax too much… ?’
Looking back, I did feel that way.
Before, I had to think constantly to act like Rumia all day long, and I had to act carefully so as not to be caught, so my nerves were quite sharp.
There’s nothing like that now, and she also found a way to subdue the demon lord… More than anything, the real Lumia, whom I was most worried about, was very comfortable as she was also worried about where she had gone.
Okay… If you think about it, it wasn’t completely solved, and it was also that it was too loose.
[Are you okay. There are so many peaceful… There is a sure way to subdue the demon king, so I understand that you are relaxed.]
Even though Cecilia and Ruril were kidnapped not too long ago…
[Well, because that was unexpected. Overall, it’s peaceful. Do you think so too?]
‘That’s right.’
The reason why I’ve been so far lately.
It is because the mind and body have become peaceful.
What else…
[I think I’m going to eat rice cake again. Naughty year.]
‘It seems like the more you talk, the more you talk… ‘
[Wrong then?]
‘That’s right… ‘
You’re right.
My body was anticipating how much more I would do on the boat.
I heard that it will take quite a while to reach the Demon Continent, but during that time, that was the only thing to do on board, so I guess I do it every day…
[Doing it every day… Then I will definitely get pregnant.]
‘That’s right… ?’
What is it all of a sudden
Why are you talking in a voice that seems like you’ve given up on everything?
[I’m not moving right now, but my body is pregnant… It feels a little strange.]
‘Ah… ‘
It’s worth it.
‘Anyway… I guess it’s time to get serious about it.’
Anyway, after all, our goal is to subdue the demon lord.
If the demon lord is subdued, the other demon lords currently attacking houses and cities will also lose their power and disappear.
Let’s remind ourselves once again.
The first objective is to subdue the Demon King by conceiving a hero’s child.
The second objective is to defeat the remnants of the Demon King’s army.
Right now, it’s in the early stages, so the Demon King’s army hasn’t gained that much power.
Absolutely no raids.
Our goal is to quickly go to the Demon Castle and subdue them before they move.
In the first place, since the hero party itself exists to assassinate the demon lord, our priority right now is to subdue the demon lord.
The next step is to defeat the remnants of the Demon King’s army.
In other words, in order to achieve the second objective, it is necessary to achieve the first objective first.
And we board the ship to achieve the first purpose.
Since the castle of the demon exists in the demon continent after all, I have to cross over there.
According to the hero, he knew the way to infiltrate the castle, so all he had to do was get there.
And the last thing you need to pack is a magic tool that can check whether you are pregnant or not.
He said he had already taken care of it.
[That… I’m serious too… ]
‘Huh?’
[In the end, I’m not saying it’s a repeat of checking out if she’s pregnant after having a fight with the dragon all the time crossing to the Ma continent by boat… ?]
‘… ‘
Does that happen?
[Under… ]
‘No, but this is the only way.’
There is already a certain way to subdue them, and the conditions for achieving that method have already been met.
Isn’t that what you have to do, of course?
[That’s right, but… It’s just that thinking about it seriously is, in the end, messing with your husband, so I’m just exhausted without realizing it… ]
‘I have nothing to say.’
Blame it on being lazy in this world.
I’m dumbfounded too, but it’s something I can’t help.
I sighed.
.
.
.
There was no long stay in the port city.
It was because he had just gone through the departure procedures and boarded the ship.
The Demon Continent and whatnot, but there are people who live in the Demon Continent as well.
That’s why there is a huge ship that takes you to the Demon Continent.
Of course, this ship has numerous weapons and equipment, and armor made of steel that covers the entire hull so that it can be prepared for any attack.
Anyway, as long as nothing like a natural disaster happens, it’s safe to say that it guarantees safety.
[Why are you talking about natural disasters and all? ? Anxiously.]
‘That… I don’t know what to say, but stand up unconditionally.’
[Uh… ?]
It’s real.
In the individual, it is treated as an event that happens unconditionally no matter when it starts.
A storm of demonic energy hits us.
It’s a very solid hull, and there are many wizards inside the hull, so you can block it, but if the warrior party can’t defeat the attacking demons, the game will be over.
In short, that’s it.
Are you strong enough to cross this continent?
If not, I will cut the entrance.
It is a raw food breakwater created by the production team.
Of course, it’s meaningless because those who are crazy about speedruns use a trick to catch the monster and just pass it over.
[Then it’s not dangerous… ?]
‘The storm will be fine. The problem is the Four Heavenly Kings appearing there.’
He was a guy who showed great strength and presence in the game, so I don’t know what he’ll be like here…
That’s what worries me the most.
‘If I can’t stop it, it’s really the end… ‘
[What’s going on?]
‘The succubus queen is coming.’
Oh hey!
The succubus queen was left at the gateway in case someone wasn’t Yagem.
You may see a scene where countless people mix their bodies in a ship where natural disasters occur.
I can’t even tell what will happen.
[… ]
Rumia froze at my words.
It seemed that he couldn’t believe what I said.
Yes?
To be honest, I don’t even want to believe this.
If you read my memories, you wouldn’t know.
[No, it won’t be… It has to be no… Eww… ]
In the end, I came to deny reality.
However, since it is an event that has already been created as a trigger, it cannot be undone the moment you board this ship.
Nevertheless, the reason why you can ride the ship without hesitation is not different.
[Don’t worry, the hero will block everything.]
Yes.
If you are a hero who has released some power, you will be able to declare a sanctuary.
Within it, all abnormal conditions are blocked.
Of course, even the saintess Cecilia could use it, but right now it would be impossible, so we had to leave it to the hero.
Even so, there must be a reason why the hero said he was on this ship.
[Ha… I’m done wishing for my husband. Where does that belief come from?]
‘My heart.’
I have already decided to fully trust the warrior.
So, I plan to believe in everything and follow it.
It is still the same today.
[Yes, I lost. You know… Call me if you need to use magic.]
‘Huh… Thank you so much Rumia.’
[Go, thank you… It’s okay. Because I became free thanks to you.]
Rumia said so, and she said she was leaving, and she cut off contact.
I looked around.
“Rumia?”
“… “
I tilted my head as the hero looked back at me.
Are you planning to talk about something important?
Just in case, I listened intently, and the hero smiled and shook his head as if it was nothing.
“No, I called him for a while because he was dazed.”
Was it just like that?
With a smile, I approached the hero’s side.
What is it, the listeners are exhausted.
Well, that’s fine anyway.
Rather, it felt good to be worried about me in such a trivial place.
Ha.
I want to subdue the demon lord as soon as possible and live in peace.
After all, traveling is not suitable for me.
And…
I’m not sure, but maybe someday I’ll have to make a choice.
Will I go back to my original world or will I stay here?
Suddenly, I thought that I wish I couldn’t make that choice itself.
If I had to make that choice, I’m not sure which one I’d choose.
Rather… If you can’t choose.
I was thinking that it might be better.
How did it come to be like this?
I’m not sure either.
I smiled bitterly.
Still… It wasn’t a bad feeling.
A ship headed for the Demon Continent departed.
