Chapter 203 Migrant①

Eight days after the establishment of the Astor Empire.

The territory under the control of the Astor Empire was undergoing rapid change.

With the addition of mankind's skills and knowledge to "creation of controlled territory" and "item forging", the infrastructure environment in the controlled territory was rapidly improved.

Other than that, whether the daily founding declaration was successful or not ... a small number of less than 100 people have begun to appear to surrender.

Inspection of the residential area reveals that the folks plow the fields with a rich expression. When I visit school, the children are smiling and smiling at the desk. As a result of the drastic improvement of the eating environment, the subordinates seem to be happy somewhere.

The enemy of mankind-the Demon King.

Hitting Japan to the bottom of fear-"Thirteen Evil Stars"

Tr a n sl a t e d by jpmt l.co m Public opinion is terrible, but if you show this situation, there will be no useless fights. That was my goal-it seemed easy to achieve survival.

But humanity continues to invade my territory. Despite rejecting humanity, the Demon King, who seeks to expand its territory, will invade.

After all, unless you keep growing ... you won't have a peaceful future.

Well, do you do your best to survive?

I returned to my room where my subordinates waited.

When he returned to his room, the men belonging to Lina and Kanon were waiting.

"I kept you waiting"

Tr a nsl a t e d by Ｊp ｍtl .ｃoｍ I say hello to my subordinates and sit down in a chair.

"I called this time to go on an expedition together."

"Expedition? Isn't it Himi?"

"Jump over Kanazawa City and visit Komatsu City!"

"Is it an expedition with your husband ... please use me as a shield without hesitation"

Takaharu, Sarah, and Hibiki respond first to my words.

"Lina is struggling."

"dont 'worry"

"What does that mean?"

Takaharu and Sarah neatly talk to each other when Lina, the leader, forgoes the effort.

"Um ... why did I get called?"

Then, Kanon asks me without reserve.

"Huh? Didn't you say that?"

"Yes"

"This tour is accompanied by Canon."

Transl ated by ｊp m tl .ｃo ｍ "……e?"

Kanon who heard my answer is stunned.

"The purpose of this expedition is-leveling. My goal is to improve my level. Then, Canon's leveling."

`` Foo !? Puwa, is it my leveling ?! ''

"This expedition is in a dominant area in Tonami City, Toyama Prefecture."

I let through the astonishing canon and tell my destination.

"Tonami City? There must be a land governed by humanity and a territory controlled by another demon king along the way?"

Lina asks her destination while frowning.

"Ignore all humanity and territory on the road"

"Ignore it, don't you ignore it?"

This time Takaharu asks a question.

"It depends on the route. I asked the maple to investigate, and if I follow the route over Kurikara Pass, I can reach my destination without being noticeable."

"Across the mountain pass? Seriously!"

Sara rises and complains.

"Relieve. Transportation is by car."

T r a ns la ted by jp ｍ tl.ｃom "Is it a bus? Isn't it really noticeable to travel to the bus by a bus?"

Kotetsu asks a question. After the revolution, the means of transportation was exclusively cars. However, the movement of buses and the like is easily noticeable to humankind, and checkpoints are set in some places.

"It's not a bus. It's a hiace."

"Hiace?-But then the number of people ..."

Hiace. It is a small private freight car that has been used in Japan for a long time. There are 6 to 10 passengers.

Although it can take up to 10 people, the basics of the invasion are 24 people. Even if it is packed and boarded, it is impossible for 24 people, including living mail, to get on as expected.

"Therefore, the expedition members will be 8 people including me + Canon."

―― !?

Everyone is astonished at my announcement.

Although it can seat ten people, eight people are the limit, considering the space for loading equipment and food. Since Canon is small, it has no count.

"Are you OK?"

Lina asks me on behalf of everyone.

"The demon kings in the controlled area of the expedition are [Creation B] and [Culture C]. The number of controlled areas is 13. The depth of the hierarchy-level 12. Since there is no sighting information of the demon king yet, It is assumed that the ranks of [body] and [magic] are not high. "

"And who are the eight?"

"I, Lina, Kotetsu, Takaharu, Sara, Hibiki, Cain, Setanta ... and Canon."

"Wow, I am ...!?" Tra nsl at ed by ｊp mt l.co m

The only unnamed Abel screams in sorrow.

"I want Abel to be away. Please follow Yatalow's instructions and cooperate in another attempt."

"……Understood"

This expedition does not intend to free any territory. Therefore, there will be few opportunities to fight strong opponents. If so, the strategy is to kill the enemy (Search & Destroy). Continue to beat small fish with overwhelming firepower and gain experience. The rationale is unknown, but the less people challenge at the same time, the more experience per person increases. Above all ... One of the factors was that the Abel giants were a bit too big to board the Hiace.

"Canon is a healer."

"Yes, yes!"

"Let Sara prioritize recovery over attack!"

"Ri"

"I'll bring a lot of medicine, but don't overdo it."

"Oh!" "Leave it!" "Oh!" "Um" "Hello" "I was afraid!"

While listening to each of the replies, we moved to the controlled area facing Kurikara Pass.
