156 Episode 156: Liliera, Fight the Devil!

The battle against Venombeat, which I thought would be fought hard, was unexpectedly lightly settled.

"I can't believe it's so easy to take him down..."

I lost my shoulder watermark due to a lack of responsiveness.

But that's where I come up with the possibility.

"No, maybe that seal was meant to sharpen the power of the Venom Beat born of mutation!

Well, even though it's toxic, I was wondering why you bothered to seal it, and that's what happened!

"He was strong enough not to weaken."

Officials at the time would have been worried about leaving a source of anxiety in the future.

But thanks to you, we were able to take him down!

"... I wonder why. No, no, that's not true, is it? I think something in me is screaming."

What do you care about Mr. Liliera?

"And more than that, we need to process the remains of Venombeat. If we don't do something about it, the land will be contaminated again."

"High Area Purification!"

Activating wide area purification magic, I approach Venom Beat using the magic of the wind to deflect the newly gushing air of venom.

"Eh!

And stored the remains of Venom Beat in a magic bag.

"Now you can eliminate the source of contamination from the land."

All you have to do is purify the surrounding land, which has been contaminated again, and the people of the surrounding land will not have to suffer from the corrosive land.

And that was then.

Heavy explosions occur in the air.

"That sounds like a climax over there."

◆ Liliera ◆

While I was dealing with the demon, Mr. Rex lightly defeated Venombeat.

Honestly, I was hoping it would take longer, but you knocked him out sooner than I expected.

Well, Mr. Rex, so naturally, I was convinced to consider why I was able to lightly defeat Venom Beat somehow.

Yeah, I definitely feel wrong.

"Whoa, whoa, whoa! How dare you take my Venom beat. Ooh!

And if I was stunned by Mr. Rex's lack of tons of demonstrators, the demon man who was relieved by the light defeat of Venom Beat was resurrected.

Shit, you should have attacked them while they were in shock.

I put in a scratch, too.

"Forgive me! I won't forgive you, you piece of garbage! I don't need it for free! He'll kill me after I've tormented and pulled out the pain. Uh-oh!

They crusade Venom Beat, the essence of their plan, and the demon is exasperated.

Well, for sure, there's nothing like a giant warcraft sprinkling poison that even demons can normally destroy the world.

But how were you going to rule such an array?

"It's from you first. Ah! You're gonna show that kid your buddy's neck!

The demon sticks out a spear made of magic towards me that was in front of him.

You look like you're losing me to anger, but you don't have a brace for that spear.

The demon shoots a spear at my shoulder.

The basics of times like this are aimed at the foot to blunt the movement, but we can both fly, so injuring the foot doesn't affect avoidance.

The demon knows that, too, so it looks like he's been after arms with weapons.

"But you're not going to hit me!

It's not easy to hit an attack in battle while flying around at high speeds.

Even though you can fly around freely, it's hard to do without ground to step on to make an attack.

Mr. Rex says it's easy to step on when you make a scaffold with magic just for a moment on the back of your foot when you attack, but you're not used to it.

So my aerial battle basically focuses on dodging, and when I find a gap, it becomes the style to attack.

No, really, it's not a level of difficulty to spa off enemies in the air, like Mr. Rex!

I evade demon attacks as critically as possible.

That's when the demon lifted the edge of his mouth slightly against me for dodging the attack.

"Huh!"

Zokri and chills run on my spine and instinct tells me to avoid it.

The moment I turned my body backwards according to the voice of instinct that said it was still not enough, as I lowered obliquely backwards with all my might, the eartip of the spear that was in the hands of the demon burst.

Impossible, the tip stretches straight to the side and pierces where my head was until earlier.

"Shit, did you take it off?"

"... Speaking of which, that spear is made of magic, right? I never thought I'd be free to change shape."

"Humans can't do this much either?

You're provoking me.

But that doesn't change anything.

Proximity is dangerous if the opponent is free to change the shape of the spear.

"But I can't stay with you forever, either! Ice Rush!"

He attacks the Demon Man by releasing a series of magically created ice chunks, but the Demon Man turns to me unwillingly.

"Huhahahahahaha! What is this toy! Are you still planning on attacking magic?

But, you know, I knew that first!

"Water Blast!"

"Wow!?"

Having taken the demon's sight with an ice barrage and repositioned it in that gap, I smash a large chunk of water into the demon.

"Say it doesn't work..."

And I unleash a fateful attack.

"Blizzard braces!"

"Nooo!

A magic blizzard unleashed strikes the demon.

"Huh! It's somewhat better compared to earlier water games, but either way this is for me...... WHAT!?"

The demon finally realizes what is happening to his body.

"Or is your body frozen...!? Is this why you attacked earlier?!?"

"You're too late to notice!

Yes, the first ice and the next water aren't just blind eyes. It was an ambush to increase the magic of this blizzard!

"I've learned that combining the magic of the same system can increase power! If you get a blizzard where you release tons of ice and water in a row without chanting, your body will naturally freeze faster!

I'm not a real wizard, but I can show you the power of Mina!

... Nevertheless, the reference Lex showed me was something that only Lex could possibly do, no matter how I looked at it, so I reproduced that in a way that I could.

So this can only work with the magic of the ice attribute that suits me, right?

"Oh, my goodness!!"

The demon tries to escape the ice, but his body keeps freezing and he can't move.

"Yep! Ugh! Yum!

A demon releases a flame from both hands and begins to melt the ice.

"Ha ha ha! It's all about human magic!

"Yeah, that's enough."

"What!?"

I wish I could jump into your nostrils!

While the demon was standing back to break the ice, I was imminent to this day.

"You can't use that spear while you're giving out that flame."

"Shit!?"

Yes, that red and black spear, so to speak, is a spear made of magic.

Then I can't use that spear while I'm using other magic.

"Don't eat it!

A spear wrapped in ice by attribute enhancement pierced the demon's chest.

"Guha!?"

Ice magic freezes the demon from the inside out.

"Huh!"

The spear slipped out as he smashed the frozen demon's body as he flanked the spear with muscle strength reinforced by physical strengthening.

And as it is, the demon's body falls to the ground.

"Phew, it feels like we can handle this."

I descend into the earth to stab the devil in the face.

"Good day, Mr. Liliera!

When I got down to the ground, Mr. Rex welcomed me.

"Thank you, Mr. Rex. But I haven't stabbed him yet."

If you get caught off guard here and eat the demon's counterattack, you won't have an ex-child.

You declared that I would deal with him, so you have to stick to the end.

"Ugh..."

But the demon had no way of fighting back, and was moaning while falling and lying on the ground.

I couldn't even fly satisfactorily, so it looks like the damage was real.

"At least I'll stab you in the stomach so you don't suffer any more."

I don't have a hobby for people.

"Ku, kuku..."

But the demon laughed for some reason.

In pain, the demon did laugh.

"Take me down. It'll be a pleasure... but don't think this is all over!

Buying time? Yeah, you don't even have that vibe.

Something creeps me out.

"I did lose to you... and Venombeat was crusaded by the lad there too... I don't want to admit it, but I have to admit it"

Unexpectedly, it seemed that the demon had honestly accepted our defeat.

"But that's not the end of it! Yes, the scourge of Venom Beat is now the real deal!

"Doh, what do you mean!?"

"Eggs."

"Eggs...?

"Yes, Venombeet was laying large quantities of eggs on a corrosive earth before it was sealed in this land! And the eggs fattened themselves with so many lives that they died in vast poisonous swamps, waiting for the moment they were born!

"Hey, what the hell!?"

Countless Venom Beet Eggs!? If something like that hatches, it's gonna be a big deal!

"Enough nourished eggs will soon wake up in response to the resurrection of Venom Beet! See the moment when countless poisonous worms that destroy the world are released, but good!

"Duh, what do I do, Mr. Rex!?"

"Take it easy, Mr. Liliera. Explore the reactions of Venom Beat children hatched with exploratory magic!

"So, but the land of corrosion is vast! If you were laying eggs there, you wouldn't know how widespread they were!?"

"Exactly! And no matter how many Venom Beats you can crusade, it's impossible to crusade every Venom Beat kid hatched on this vast corrosive earth! The Venombeat boys who escaped while you were fighting will create a new land of corrosion!

It tastes so bad! It tastes so bad! I can't believe this happened at the end of the day!

Nearby towns and villages will be damaged by Venombeat!

"... that?

But for some reason, Mr. Rex's voice was not a panic, but rather confusing.

"What's the matter, Mr. Rex?

"No, for now, I've been exploring within a 100-kilometer radius with exploratory magic, but there's no reaction from a powerful demon."

"Huh? What does that mean?

"Um, I've had a reaction to the Giant Poison Sentient Pied position I fought before, but I don't think I've had a reaction with a Venom Beat kid, do I?"

"So you're saying the eggs were laid farther apart?

Then we don't know where the eggs are!

"No, I don't think so"

"Huh? Really? Why?"

"It was a long time ago that Venombeet laid eggs, so you still think the land of corrosion was narrower by then, right? In fact, the priests of the church were curbing the erosion of the corrosive earth."

"Ah."

If you ask me, yes.

Indeed, Mr. Rex is right, it's more natural to think that the land of corrosion was narrower at the time it was sealed, isn't it?

"But then where's the Venombeat kid?

"He may be hiding in the ground because he's a mutant species. Let's dig back and find out a little bit magically."

"Digging back to the ground?

How does that work? Soon after I hear it, Mr. Rex activates the magic.

"High Area Earth Quake!!"

The next moment, the ground rocked out with tremendous momentum.

"Yikes!?"

"Whoa!?"

I rushed up into the air with flying magic and saw the sight of the earth twirling like a creature.

"This is all done by Mr. Rex's magic!?"

"Oh, something happened"

"Huh?"

"Look, there it is"

Looking in the direction Mr. Rex pointed out, there was a massive burst of white, round stuff springing up away from where we were.

"Shall we go and see"

When Mr. Rex releases his magic, he descends into a round mass that appears on the ground.

"Oh, that's pretty big"

"Really, it's about the same size as us."

"Apparently, this is the egg of Venom beet."

Mr. Rex was right, it sprung up on the ground. That was a big egg.

When I poked him with my spear, it was soft enough for the tip of the spear to stab him slowly. It's more like a soft egg like a bug or a fish egg than a bird or a reptile egg.

"But didn't the eggs hatch right away? Are you going to be born? Oh, if that's the case, you'd better destroy the eggs soon!

"No, that doesn't seem necessary. This egg is dead."

"Huh?"

That's what Mr. Rex said and controlled me as I hurried to break the eggs.

"What do you mean, he's dead?

"Exploratory magic doesn't detect life from this egg."

"Really?

"Yeah, if you're sure about the demon story, there's still going to be a Venom beet child in these eggs. But magic doesn't sense the vitality or magic of a Venom Beat child."

"So you think he's dead?

"Yes."

Mr. Rex unequivocally affirms.

"Stupid! He's dead! In the land of corrosion, massive carcasses have sunk, and the nutrients flowing from it have grown eggs! Death without external enemies!

A protest comes out that there can be no dying demon.

"Well, let's just be sure."

Say no or no, Mr. Rex puts a blade through Venombeet's eggs.

And quickly revealed the contents by turning the egg shell into two straight pieces.

"Uh, I knew you were dead"

From what I can see, there was a small, but oversized Venom beet in the egg from us.

Though he had rounded his legs just like his parents.

"He's definitely dead."

I don't know why, but it looks like the Venombeat kids were already dead.

"But how could he have died? If the demon story is true, it won't be that easy to die, will it? You think he was attacked by natural enemies?

"Yes! Venom beet eggs were sinking at the bottom of the corrosive earth! There's no reason why people don't want to target eggs protected by poison!

Looks like someone took it down lightly for their parents.

"Ah... maybe I purified it with wide-area purifying magic, so I purified it to toxic nutrition"

"Huh? What's that?

"What do you mean?"

"Uh, probably, but I think the Venom beet eggs were nourishing themselves from the moisture found in the poisonous mud on the corroded earth. I guess the eggs didn't even bother to stiffen the shell because the poison protects them. Instead, I think it's an efficient way to absorb nutrients from mud moisture."

However, Mr. Rex tells me it seems difficult to say.

"But when the surrounding mud was purified by purifying magic and returned to normal soil, I think the poisonous mud containing the nutrition was gone and the nutrition could no longer be absorbed. Normal creatures have the necessary nutrients stored inside the egg, or the shell itself feeds on it, but if it's as big as Venom beet, that's probably not enough nutrients."

Mr. Rex says it was an ecology that needed constant nourishment in order to maintain more than a certain amount of giant from birth.

"Uh, in short, the fact that the soil was purified prevented it from getting nourishment, and the eggs starved to death?

"You will be."

"Ugh, I'm starving to death. Ohhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh"

I don't think Venom beet eggs were dry due to undernourishment, and the demon shouts.

"Don't be ridiculous! Venom beet eggs die for such nonsense......"

But you did your best there, and the demon fell apart.

... I don't know, they were bad.
