Chapter 56 – Village in a Small Forest (9)
Boyd, hit by Yuria’s bow, fell down.
Boyd’s lower body had already turned into dust and disappeared, and almost half of his upper body had also disappeared.
《I became one with Demon… How could this happen…》
Boyd was no longer able to demonstrate the resilience he had shown earlier, as his strength was almost exhausted.
We walked towards Boyd.
“Is it finally over?”
“Looking at my current condition, I don’t think I can fight anymore.”
It was a harder fight than I thought.
Even if a demon appears, I thought that Yuria and Rien would be enough to deal with it, as long as it wasn’t a raid boss level 95 or higher.
Even in the actual game, if you have two characters who have paid a lot of money based on level 100 to catch Bael at level 90, you can insert negligible damage even before the first phase comes out.
Unfortunately, my characters are not that strong, so I have to watch each phase, but I can still defeat it.
This time, the pattern came out twisted while fusing with the spider, so it feels like it wasn’t dealt with right away, but as expected, it seems that Boyd’s body couldn’t hold on as Yuria and Lien pushed the deal harder.
“Hey, you’re alive? I have a lot to ask you.”
Boyd’s body is already missing from the chest down, and of course there are no tentacles that bothered us.
《What on earth… You must be invincible if you combine with Demon…》
“Heng! I’ve killed countless Spiders and Bael!”
Yuria, who heard Boyd’s muttering, spoke in a voice intoxicated with her victory.
“We come from a world where we fought against demons. So it’s natural that we can defeat demons. The only opponent we can’t fight in our current state would have to be at least Demorgos.”
When a level 95 raid boss appears, it will be very difficult from then on.
Considering that level 90 Bael has already appeared, if we don’t summon the Buffer Crusader as soon as possible, we may end up in a situation where we will be in trouble.
“So what are you Voids? How do you know about Demons?”
“Joy! Did you think I was going to tell you that…?
Those who belong to an evil organization react exactly the same when they are in a situation where they are all dying.
Couldn’t it be better to tell the main character right away to make it easier for him?
“You bastard! Tell everything to your master!”
Lien said, placing her fist right next to the guy’s head.
Perhaps because his body is already dying, he doesn’t really react to Lien’s punches.
“I didn’t expect much. If you told me everything, I would really appreciate it. Even if I didn’t say it, I got a lot of information about Boyd today thanks to you.”
I had no idea about the Void that the Infector muttered about last time because I had no clue, but after seeing what this guy showed today, I was able to infer a few things.
First of all, when you listen to what this guy said, it seems like he considers the existence of Demons to be somewhat sacred.
They seem to mistakenly believe that Demon is a being that purifies the Arpe Continent.
By what standard are they purifying it?
And it also has the ability to summon demons here.
What is used as a summoning material appears to be the power of God contained in items used by game characters like me who were summoned with the power of an old god.
I clearly saw the equipment used by the game character Dinah disappear and the dimension split before my eyes.
I should have summoned my character with that!
Are there two reasons why Boyd came to Arestel?
Summoning back the spider that the elf had sealed, and summoning other demons with Dinah’s equipment.
It happened before my eyes.
I guess I didn’t know that there were game items like Arestel in the Kingdom of Britinya last time, as it wasn’t known.
Otherwise, a new demon would have appeared there too.
《Our Void exists everywhere… Even if you have the power to deal with Demons, you will never be able to defeat Arceus. Haha! He is the only one who can purify this world and lead it anew! 》
“Arceus? This is my first time hearing that name. Is he your leader?”
It seems that its life force is almost exhausted, so it cannot respond to my voice and is just muttering.
《Now… Soon the day of judgment is coming… Every abominable creature will be condemned to death…》
“It looks like he’s already out of breath. Shall we take care of it?”
Lien said to me, pointing to the one he had almost caught.
After hearing that, I quietly nodded, and when Lien saw that, he immediately stepped on the guy’s head.
Puck!
The head of the guy who was stepped on by Lien exploded.
“Hehe… Are you guys hurt anywhere?”
From what I saw, it didn’t seem like there was any major attack.
“Yes! I’m fine!”
“Thank you for your concern, my lord. But no one was hurt by this bastard.”
Didn’t you bump fists with this guy earlier?
I think I frowned a little at that time.
“Is the arm you hit earlier okay?”
“It hurts a bit, but it will get better with time.”
Lien said, swinging her arm lightly.
“But I was surprised. He merged with Demon… Did Jinu know about this guy?”
“No. I’ve never even heard of a case like this. The talking Infector I saw at Brighton Castle is probably this type.”
I shook my head at Yuria’s words and said,
“This time it was tricky because the attack patterns of Spider and Bael were mixed. If it weren’t for that, it would have been easy to deal with.”
“That’s right! It was annoying to have tentacles flying between attacks!”
Yuria said angrily.
“In the future, you will meet not only demons but also these guys. From what I saw earlier, it seemed like you summoned demons using Diana’s equipment. Is that correct, my lord?”
“That’s how I saw it too. This might be more serious than we thought. I never imagined there would be people targeting the equipment we were looking for.”
Summoning demons is a problem, but the biggest problem is that an opponent who competes with us for game items has appeared.
Up to this point, no one had been able to use game items with experience.
It seems that it has been disabled so that it cannot be used by anyone other than the game character or me.
Even if it was powerful in the past, not many people were particularly greedy for it because it is currently unusable equipment.
But today things changed.
We found out that we weren’t the only ones looking for game items.
Even now, at this very moment, Boyd may be targeting other game items.
Also, from what he said, it seems like the organization called Void itself is not small in scale.
The number of Boyd gang members who committed suicide today exceeded 20.
A small organization wouldn’t be able to do something like this.
Now, it might be difficult to find it on our own.
“I need to quickly call the other sisters as well. I thought all I had to do was break down the dimensional door, but…”
“I was going to quickly break down the dimension door and live with you all, but I don’t know what this damn god is doing.”
Does this guy called God not know this?
If you knew, you would have told me the last time we met.
Then, at least prepare.
“The god here is truly incompetent. If only the master’s power had been used as is, all problems would have been solved a long time ago.”
“I don’t know about that, but I agree that God is incompetent.”
First of all, now that Boyd’s matter is resolved today, I’m feeling tired.
All I did was assist Yuria and Lien and tell them to watch Demon’s patterns and avoid them, but it was still the most intense battle I’ve had since coming here.
“Let’s rest for a moment. If we rest, Sylvia or another elf will come.”
I sat down and lay down.
“Me too!”
When I lay down, Yuria came over and lay down next to me.
“Then please excuse me, my lord.”
Lien likewise came to the other side and took a seat.
As we lay down and rested for a moment, we heard a sound behind us.
“Hey~~! Jinu, Yuria, Lien~!”
When I heard the voice, it seemed to be Sylvia.
When we heard Sylvia’s voice, we got up from our seats and turned toward the sound to see Sylvia and the other elves running together.
As we stood up, it seemed like they spotted us on the other side as well.
“Hey, are you okay? What happened to that monster from earlier? Did you kill it?”
“Just calm down for now. We took care of that guy, so don’t worry.”
I said as I watched Sylvia come over and turn her head from side to side as she spoke.
“Ugh! Is that monster that exploded over there?”
I nodded at Sylvia’s words.
“Ugh… To kill such a monster without even a scratch… I thought it was normal when I came here and watched it, but I didn’t expect it to be this bad.”
Sylvia looked at us with an expression of boredom.
“In the end, it was okay because we killed him. Were any of the elves injured?”
“It looks like there were no casualties thanks to your quick response. Thank you very much for that. If it weren’t for you, Ar’estel might have disappeared from the map today.”
After hearing what I said, Sylvia bowed her head and expressed her gratitude.
“And Elune said she would see you. Will you follow me?”
