Saikyou Juzoku Tensei ~Cheat Majutsushi no Slow Life~ Chapter 135

Chapter 135

Marias led me to the guest room, and after dropping off my luggage, I decided to take a look at the territory .

Like the alchemy division, there are too many uncertainties in this territory .

It wouldn’t hurt to gather information .

I knock on the door of the Elia’s room .

“I’m going to go take a look around outside…… how about it?”

“…… I’m tired after everything that happened today . I’m resting . ”

Her voice comes back in her usual low-pitched tone .

She had been piloting the carriage all the way to f.a.ge territory .

She must be tired from that .

When I and Mea left Lark’s mansion, a crowd of people had gathered at the gate .

The man standing at the front of the crowd heads straight for me when he notices me .

“White hair and red eyes…… and a girl with horns…… you guys are the adventurers who say you are the ones who defeated Nalgarn!”

A man in a blue robe with a thick scripture under his arm .

I remember seeing him from a distance on the way to Lark’s Hall .

“Hearing rumors, I couldn’t resist the urge to meet the hero of this territory, and I couldn’t stand still…… Oops, I apologize . My name is Ringus, a Levi missionary . ”

Ringus narrowed his eyes mildly and introduced himself with a smile .

He seemed to be a well-rounded, kind man with a somewhat condescending atmosphere .

The crowds of people following behind Ringus are probably the general population who are approaching with interest in Ringus’s story, just like when I saw him before .

“…… Hi, my name is Abel . The girl over here is Mea . The three of us came here with the carriage driver who brought us here . We plan to stay for a while, so please take care of us . ”

When I first saw the crowd, I thought it was that alchemy division .

As far as Lark was concerned, the head of the Alchemy Division, a man named Icarus, had quite a bit of say in the territory and seemed to be doing whatever he wanted with it as a good thing .

Considering Icarus’s position, he would want to be the first to confirm me as an uncertain factor .

…… I didn’t want to come into contact with the Alchemy Division as much as possible, so I’m glad it was the missionary who came .

However, this person also seems a bit suspicious, so if anything, I don’t want to get involved with them too much .

“That’s amazing of you take such a powerful magic beast with just three people! Great, great! You guys must be excellent at planning, aren’t you!”

“Planning?”

“How in the world did you manage to defeat Nalgarn! I’d love to hear that story……! I know you’re all wondering, too!”

…… All I did was forcefully fly its head off at the front, though .

Shall I make the scene muddy with the same method I used with the lord?

“Oh no, you conducted a large scale subjugation operation before, right? I think that’s when Nalgarn was weakened . Remember, she cut off one of its heads at that time or something……”

“…… N-no, I’ve heard directly from the strike team that the head that was cut off, in that case, was regenerated . ”

“He must have used the majority of his magic power to regenerate his head . Even without any trauma, he was almost dead due to the lack of magic power . Regenerating the head of such a large dragon consumes a reasonable amount of magical power . ”

Behind Ringus, the other residents were discussing each one of them, “What, so that’s what happened . ” as if they were convinced .

However, only Ringus opened his eyes thinly and stared at my face .

However, it quickly returned to a mild threadbare look and smiled deceptively .

“Ha, ha ha ha, I see, so that’s how it is . ”

“Yes, even if you give Nalgarn the ability to regenerate, it will only be as effective as scaring them a bit with their first kill . Maybe some country planted a magic circle in the old war, but it’s not a very clever combination . ”

“…… so it’s not a wise combination?”

“Well, that’s possible . I hear there are many cases of people in desperate need of a weapon to make a good one, and that Nalgarn may have been one of them . ”

In the worst-case scenario, we hear of a country that forced itself to create a large monster using bio-magic, and then it went out of control and nearly perished .

In the end, the hostile nations defeated the monster with the armed forces they had prepared for war, and peace is said to have been restored between the two nations .

“Ho-, however, Nargarn is originally equipped with multiple magics, and is a magical beast with a fairly high magical power, so it wouldn’t be a mistake to combine them! I suspect, though, that there may have been other reasons for his weakness . ”

Ringus said, his voice slightly hoa.r.s.e .

His face is reddening .

This is bad .

It was only meant to be a joke, but he may have felt that Levi’s country was being made fun of .

Nalgarn was most likely a survivor of a magical beast weapon created long ago by a sorcerer in the native place of Riveras Country, the home of Ringus, just beyond the mountain range .

If someone from another country disgraced the magical beast weapons that his homeland had made during the war, he wouldn’t feel too good about it, even if he wasn’t directly involved .

It could lead to a story involving religion and history .

It’s a part of the story that should not be touched down .

Ringus’ temples are twitching .

It was clear that Ringus was irritated .

I hope it doesn’t happen again .

“Oh…… Yes, that’s definitely true . Nalgarn has a high magical power…… and is the right choice for building a magic circle of regeneration . I’m sure that’s it, it can’t be wrong . They are also very mobile, and if you let them take the initiative, they will be able to move to their advantage . It was my own fault . ”

Ringus seemed to sense that I was paying attention and put his hand over his mouth .

He must have known that he had made me feel uncomfortable .

Mea watched the awkward atmosphere between me and Ringus with a restless look on her face, but then, as if she had an idea, her face lit up and she opened her mouth .

“Ah! Come to think of it, Abel, you said a lot of things about how messy the regeneration magic circle was, how inefficient it was, and how whoever made it didn’t understand the nature of magic! Isn’t Nalgarn weakened because of that?”

For a moment, the mood froze .

Perhaps the awkwardness was due to a disagreement, Mea thought .

When both parties had cooled down here, he decided to come up with a third idea, and what was that, hahaha, it would flow .

No, I’m not asking for that kind of a.s.sistance now .

I think it was an attempt to break the ice, but I think it was an attempt to help me out, or maybe she pushed a battles.h.i.+p with a turret on it .

“…… Ringus-san, is something wrong?”

“I don’t know if you’re not feeling well . My house is near here, so why don’t you go and rest a while?”

The residents who were following behind him call out to him, concerned about his condition .

Ringus seems to have returned to his composure after hearing that and returns to his expression with a small shake of his head .

“Ha ha…… I felt a little bit dizzy . Maybe I’ve been exposed to the sun too much . Well then, I’ll take advantage of your kindness and interrupt you . S-so, if you’ll excuse me…… Thank you very much for the interesting story . ”

As if to excuse the old man’s invitation, he quickly turned himself around and left .

The men and ladies followed in a hurry .

“…… Oh, that’s right . Abel-san . ”

I thought he was going to leave just like that, but halfway through, Ringus looked back at me .

“I heard rumors that you’re also planning to partic.i.p.ate in the Magic Beast Thinning scheduled for tomorrow . ”

“What? Ohhhh, yes . ”

Did the rumors spread while they were resting in Lark’s guest room?

Since a person from the outside defeated the magical beast that was blocking the pa.s.sage, would the interest of the residents be that much less?

That’s probably why Ringus came to see us……

“Please be careful not to lose your life over something trivial . You are the hero and hope of this territory, after all . This is one of the words that Master Levi is said to have said: “Without hope, there is no choice but to seize the falsehood . Even if it slips through your hands like water . ” “

That’s all heI said, and this time Ringus and the others left .

“…… that’s kind of a tricky thing to say . ”

I said out quietly when Ringus was out of sight .
