199 Episode 199 The Great Fiery Beast

Yes!　That's right! The source of the disaster that's been plaguing this country, a giant hexenbiest!

We thought we had won the battle, but then the Hexenbiest made a huge statement.

What is that?

We thought we had won the battle, but then the Majin said something very important.

The humans thought they had calmed the disaster with a magic item, but it was actually him that was sealed up!

That beast?

This place is a vital spiritual area that controls the flow of life and magic in the land where the veins of the earth and the veins of the spirit meet!　But it is also an extremely dangerous place that can easily lead to disaster if provoked!

Indeed, the earth's veins control the flow of the earth's life force, and the spiritual veins control the flow of magical power.

Normally, such important places don't overlap, though. But in this country, it has happened. That's why it's revered as a spiritual area.

What do you mean?

Yes!　He's been feeding off the power that fills this place by stimulating the earth's veins and spirits for years. As a result, this country will be constantly struck by disasters, and he doesn't care!

"What an annoying demon!

It's true. It's true, it's a ridiculous creature that's causing disasters for its own sake!

Now, what do you think a guy would do if he woke up in such a state of supreme hunger?　Well, what does one do when one wakes up in such a supremely hungry state?　I'll be tapping into the earth's veins and spirit's veins with unparalleled stimulation in order to eat the best food I can!　The disaster it will cause will be nothing compared to the disaster that leaked from the seal!　Not only will it destroy this country, it may even sink the earth into the sea!

The demoness laughed happily as she bled.

You know you don't have long to live, so you're going to take everything with you!

But that's not all!　The unleashed Daemon Beast will go around stimulating the earth and spiritual veins of the world in search of new food!　It's the end!　This world is coming to an end!

What a terrifying hexenbiest!

What a horrible beast! Could it be that this monster is related to the white plague that led to the collapse of the ancient magical civilization? ......

"By the Great Hexenbiest Volcanic Turtle, also known as the Great Volcanic Turtle!

The hexenbiest told us the name of the beast in fear.

The hexenbiest tells us the name of the hexenbiest in fear.

Hmm?　What does that mean?

"Yes!　It's the Volcanic Turtle, an evil hexenbiest that has destroyed many countries!

Hmm, I think I heard that right.

Volcanic Turtle, huh?

"...... What?

You scared me. The Volcanic Turtle is a world-destroying beast sealed inside a volcano at the intersection of the earth's veins and spirit veins, so I thought it would be the Volcanic Tiger.

I was wondering what kind of terrifying demon would come out because of all the threats, but it was just a normal fire demon that you can find around.

I'm not sure what to do.

"No, no, wait. It's a Volcanic Turtle, okay?　It's a huge monster the size of a mountain.　It's a huge monster with a shell on its back that shoots out lava bullets like a volcano and has destroyed several countries!　You can't be so tough!

"Volcanic Turtle destroyed many countries?

Hmm?　What does that mean?　It's true that the Volcanic Turtle is big, but it's not a highly threatening hexenbiest.

I'm not sure what you mean by that, but I'm pretty sure that a good water, ice, or even earth wizard can defeat it.

I'm not sure what to make of it.

It's a good idea to take a look at the website and see if you can find anything that might help you.

I'm sure you're aware of the fact that the same type of demon can be dangerous in different places, and that demons can be really scary.

For example, if a demon is born in the world of the demons, it might be different from the demons in our world.

Or maybe it's a mutant with special powers like the Venom Beet we fought before.

Hmm, we can't be too careful when we think about it!

But it's no use thinking about it. I'm going to go exterminate it. Alright.

I jumped down toward the Volcanic Turtle at the bottom of the crack.

"Hey!　I'll be back.

"Boaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa!

I'm not sure what to make of it, but I'm sure it's a good idea.

Is it because it senses my presence, or is it simply because it has found a way out where it can be free?

While I was thinking about this, a large amount of lava and lava bullets were shot out from the crater of the Volcanic Turtle's shell with a roar.

Oh, it seems to be recognizing us.

"Reflecting Field!

In order to prevent everyone above from being harmed, I activate a reflection magic in the space in front of me.

I'm not sure what to do, but I'm sure I'm not the only one.

This magic is an easy interception magic that bounces any material or magic that enters the activated space back towards the direction it came from.

It's good for damaging most enemies, unless they're the type that nullify attacks of the same attribute.

I'm not sure if this is a good idea.

The Volcanic Turtle shouted in surprise, apparently not expecting the attack he had released to come back.

I'm not sure what to make of this.

However, as it was originally a demon that lived in lava, just reflecting the lava bullets didn't seem to do much damage.

It's not only the carapace but also the skin that's quite hard.

It's not just its shell, but its skin as well. It's not a good idea to use a bad attack if it causes lava to spew out of the earth's veins, so let's use an ice attack to kill it!

I unleash my special magic on the Volcanic Turtle, which has yet to recover from its confusion.

The bottom is hot from the lava, and I wonder if ice magic is the standard here.

But ice magic is a bit tricky to thaw.

"Okay, it's hot, let's draw it over here!　High area apports!

I set my coordinates to the Volcanic Turtle floating on the lava and use magic to draw the entire space towards me.

And then the Volcanic Turtle appeared right in front of me.

"Boaaaah!

From the Volcanic Turtle's point of view, it must look as if I suddenly appeared in front of it.

I'm sorry for being so surprised, but I'm going to hunt you down!

"Metal Slicer!

I cast a cleavage granting spell on my sword to slice through demons with metal-like hard skin and shells, and slashed the Volcanic Turtle's neck.

It's a good idea to have a good idea of what you're going to do with the money you've got.

And when I swung my sword down, the neck, which was as thick as a tower rather than a large tree, was neatly separated from the body.

"Boa?

The Volcanic Turtle, still unaware that his head had been cut off, tried to tilt his head and wondered why his head was stuck.

I'm not sure what to make of this.

"Whoa, we're getting it back!

It's a good idea to have a good idea of what you're looking for.

I'm not sure what to make of it. It's also useful for strengthening Gyro's equipment since he's a flame.

I'm not sure what to do.

I'm not sure what to do.

I'm not sure what to make of this.

I'm not sure what to make of it.

I think they might have mistaken the demon for the Volcanic Tiger, which has a similar name.

Oh, yes. We have to do something about the geological and spiritual veins as well.

I'm not sure what to make of it, but I'm sure it's a good idea.

But it will take hundreds of years for the land to heal naturally, so I'd better prepare to heal the land.

First of all, Calm Wave!

I unleash a wave of calming and healing energy into the earth and spirit veins.

This magic radiates healing magic within a certain area around the sorcerer, but by pouring it into the flow of the earth and spiritual veins, it can ride the flow of power to reach lands that are not originally reached.

Well, this kind of thing would only be possible in this land where both the earth and spiritual veins overlap.

But thanks to you, it's easy for me to pour a lot of magic power into this place, because I don't have to go to the place where the disaster is happening every time to calm the land.

"Okay, it's settled. I'll modify the magic item that contained the disaster to include a function to heal the land by sending healing waves to the land over the long term.

After confirming that I had successfully healed the distant land through the spirit vein, I thought about what to do next.

This land is a very special spiritual area, and there's no guarantee that it won't be spotted by a demon like the Volcanic Turtle again.

If it was a normal spiritual or geological vein, it wouldn't have turned into such a big deal even if the Volcanic Turtle was involved, but I guess it was just bad luck.

That's why we need to give it the ability to heal the land and keep demons away, as well as the ability to seal up disasters as before.

When I returned from the crack, I told everyone that I had succeeded in stabilizing the land.

I can't believe it⁉ I can't believe ...... that you've managed to solve the disaster that has plagued the land of Tianfeng for so many years all by yourself, without the help of any magic tools.

I can hear Yukinojo's voice of surprise, but it's thanks to the fact that the sealed demon's identity was not a serious opponent.

"Ba, stupid ...... my two-step plan ...... gulp.

"Oh, he's dead.

In the event that you're not sure what you're looking for, there are a few things you can do.

"Kyu!　Kepu!

And the mofumofu who had finished eating the fallen demon's wings was burping contentedly.
