202 – Good and Evil-2
The existence of God cannot be understood in the realm of humans.
No mere creature could understand the principle of the Creator.
I just tried to understand the existence of that god, even if it was blasphemous.
The conclusion drawn as a result is,
‘God…was a system…’
The point was that God is the law.
* * *
“That… What…”
All the shocking truths and speculations were told in one hour, and everyone was busy stuttering without being able to say anything properly.
Even the Mage Tower owners, the most intelligent of the Mage Tower, were overloaded to understand all this information.
Understanding the existence of the Demon King was a high-level part to that extent.
“…If it’s downgraded to a human… Isn’t it rather weakened enough to kill?”
Aspi, the lord of the white pagoda, who is proficient in biological magic and learning, tried to interpret it in a positive way.
If the concept has been relegated to human beings, now is the time to root out the demon lord.
Even so, the expressions of everyone in the conference hall, including the wise man, were not very bright. As if you know how complacent that affirmation is.
[That’s right. He must have been weak, and he was weak when we met then.]
It was threatening even when possessed by the Red Tower Owner and when using Ren’s cloned body.
Compared to the disaster itself that seemed to cover the sky at the time, it had fallen to an incomparable level.
Nevertheless, the sage knows.
[It’s still a problem.]
That’s just a larva born from an egg.
It was clear to me that even the cocoon to start metamorphosis hadn’t been made.
[It’s as if you’ve already obtained a passport that the God of Light won’t interfere with.]
“…But there’s no way the Lord wouldn’t interfere with the demon king at all?”
For Lumine, who believes in the doctrine of light, it was not easy to understand such a situation. He wanted to trust that there was no way the God of Light would stand by like that at the level of blindfolded deceit.
[I’d rather believe that too. However, considering that I made a plan to have the god of light somehow interfere with the demon king…]
{Wait wise man, did you make a board?}
Angela seemed to be perplexed and immediately asked the question in the presence of the mage tower wizard. She could not be seen or heard by the Mage Tower, but in the current situation, it was an action that could raise suspicion.
[…That’s…]
The sage tried to answer, but then he winked at Angela and cleared his throat. There was a slight sense of incongruity because it was her young body, but fortunately, no one doubted it.
[…Anyway, as time goes by, that guy will draw out his original power. While increasing the perfection of her body.]
“…You’re saying you’re at a disadvantage if you go long-term.”
The perfection of the body is gradually increasing. Compared to the attack during Reinhardt, the guy he faced in Leo’s hometown proved that gap.
The more time was delayed, the more disadvantageous humanity was.
“…It was a story far beyond expectations, but the extension of what I wanted to say is also the same.”
After clearing her mind, Aileen raised her main topic, which had been set aside by the wise man’s words.
“Current magic executioners have found the base of their existence through the cooperation of the Heretic Questioner.”
At that one word, Reinhardt, the sage, and even the saints stiffened. It was even more shocking because of the information about the demon king, because it was more important than the demon king story I just told you.
“…Then, let’s jump right in…!”
“I thought I should be careful from the beginning, but I have to say that I have to be more careful because of the story so far.”
Eileen also wanted to purge immediately after receiving the information. Because she, who usually values her coolness and reason, erred in her judgment and almost gave her order to rush in.
“That person is the Demon King.”
But she can tell even when she gets carried away with her emotions.
That its existence was beyond her awareness.
She had to understand that even if all the magic executioners participated, she was a threatening enemy who would be annihilated.
“…The imperial family has already called in troops. The help of the Reinhardt family and the strength of the hero and the holy sword will be essential in this battle.”
As the opponent was the Demon King, the help of the hero, the saint, and the sage was absolute.
Historically and practically, they are the only ones who can defeat the demon lord.
“…And to Leonardo himself, all of this must be kept strictly confidential.”
The party took a moment to organize their thoughts.
They made that suggestion because they thought Leo had lost his mind, but Reinhardt knew what a strategic advantage Leo had.
‘…Considering your personality…’
Besides, Leonardo wasn’t the type to be fooled. Even if it wasn’t memory loss, it was good in my eyes that I would find out somehow and pursue it like a tenacity.
“…Don’t worry. From the beginning, it is a plan based on handling it without informing him.”
“…Why?”
Ariaspil was the first to ask a question because he was a hero who would be the main axis of this plan.
It was not easy to convince Aileen, who always pursues practical interests, to come up with such a humane plan.
“That being’s body is Leonardo’s mother, and considering that he even cloned it, it must be because only that body is the vessel that can most fully preserve its power.”
There was no one here who didn’t know that the condition was that there should be no mana.
“…And I’m sure he’s still alive. What about the body?”
It was speculation, but no one immediately refuted or questioned it. If that is true, it will be extremely divided on what to do.
[Reason?]
The one who asked the question the fastest was the wise man. The sight of him sighing with his arms crossed seemed like he had foreseen this.
“…I have been questioning since the study that corpses do not rot.”
It is almost impossible for organisms to not rot in the air. Especially if it is a human corpse that has not been treated with any magic or medicine.
So Eileen guessed. She thought it was ridiculous, but common sense was a luxury now that even the demon king had been revived.
“…Additional records found in the Warlock’s residence.”
When Aileen showed the page of his data, everyone couldn’t help but be shocked by silence. Although the writing on the wall was covered in blood, one sentence was clear.
[She is immortal.]
From the point of view that it did not rot even though it died in the first place, it should have been inferred that the main body was added while alive.
“It is an existence that does not die from the beginning. It will be alive in some form.”
“…But the main body didn’t appear?”
As Marken said, the main body did not appear as if it was intentionally hidden.
“That’s why you shouldn’t tell Leonardo. The odds of being in an airstrike are too high.”
No matter how competent and cool-headed a person Leonardo may be, confronting her mother herself carries unacceptable risks and variables.
It made sense to hide the information as well as face-to-face.
“And if confronted.”
If she is one of the means by which her demon lord will be revived.
“We have to suppress it somehow and seal it.”
“…Sealing… Are you trying to kill Leo’s mother right now?!”
At Eileen’s cold treatment, Rios shouted.
The reason Leonardo came to society and came to Reinhardt was to find her mother.
For her, burying such a mother without reunion or announcement of her being alive was beyond disrespect for Leo.
“Then should we neglect the method of resurrection of the demon king?”
“…That’s…”
But they had to choose rationally.
Because the survival of mankind depended on their choice.
I had to choose a safe track.
“According to the words of the wise man, when the Demon King becomes perfect, humanity will end.”
Even if it betrays humanity.
“…Then… What do you mean? Should I praise him for his rational judgment?”
Marken did not hide his dissatisfaction and clearly showed hostility.
No matter how rational it may be, it was impossible for a warrior’s family to accept such an act with pleasure.
“I will accept Reinhardt’s anger and I will have to get his consent, but I will do it even if he doesn’t.”
The head of the blue tower also expressed the same opinion as Eileen.
Even if he did not take ethics lightly, the form and price were different from those of Ain.
From the point of view of the demon king, standing by the sidelines was a sin.
“Sorry to be notified, but…”
“…I agree.”
Everybody thought that answer was the most shocking thing in the conference room.
I was astonished not at the answer itself, but at the person who gave that answer first.
“…I didn’t expect you to agree. Ariaspil.”
I couldn’t believe that the warrior Ariaspil, the girl who loved Leonardo the most, and the woman he loved the most said such a thing.
“…Aria…”
“Because Leonardo said it a few times. Reinhardt is not prepared to get dirty.”
Ariasviel recalled the data he received from the Execution Knights.
According to the contents, she will be killed by the demon king and Leo’s mother.
But to put it another way.
“I think now is the time.”
It means that she, as Leo’s mother, blew away the demon king herself.
“Leonardo has fought enough. It’s so dirty that I can’t clean it anymore.”
From noble mtl dot com.
Ariasviel’s expression was cold as she made up her mind. The people in the second play knew what kind of face Leo had in the ruthless play 1 he had been talking about.
“It’s our turn this time.”
Even if she is hurt, even if she is dirty, when she is determined to be hated, Aria puts on such a lonely expression.
“…I got it.”
Even Gladio, the head of state, made up his mind when he saw that determination.
As long as the family head’s consent was gone, there was no room for anything more.
“…When does the alliance battle start?”
“In one week, all elite troops will be summoned and set to go.”
“Okay.”
Arya Spiel held out his hand. Eileen just stared blankly at the hand.
It was not my intention to ignore it.
He reacted right away because he thought it was something Arya Spiel would never do to him.
“Don’t you want to shake hands?”
“…Ah… No. Surprising. Really…”
“It’s not the time to cover up the situation.”
The meeting ended with a handshake between the two enemies.
Following that day, Arya thought that his holy sword was warm.
As if they were acknowledging only this.
***
“…Then… Goodbye… Wizard…”
“…Yes, I hope to see you next time.”
Leonardo saw off Aileen and the others by performing a child role that uses Aria as a shield to the level of possessing.
Soon, everyone in the Mage Tower will teleport and leave.
“…Does anyone have an envelope…?”
“Ah…Here.”
Silica held out a thick paper envelope to Leo, as if she had anticipated this situation. With a pale face, Leo hurriedly stuffed the paper bag into his mouth.
“Eh eh … !!”
Leo, who had never vomited at any corpse, no matter what injuries and curses he suffered, vomited violently.
As if he couldn’t stand this, he didn’t even care about people’s eyes.
“…I’m really begging you… Don’t make fun of me with this. Eileen alone is enough for her mentality to become powder…”
“…Ah… I see…”
Leonardo asked, leaving the envelope containing the vomit behind. There was no formality, but no one dared to refuse the pathetic request.
Because I was in the midst of receiving threats to harass you with additional training in return for laughing at you in the first place.
“But what happened at the meeting? Did you get anything?”
“…The whole alliance has been established. Even with the temple side and the imperial side.”
Ariaspil covered the truth with a veil without lying. At some point, even this kind of behavior became accustomed to Arya.
“…It’s going to be like a real war. Ha… I’m allied with Eileen… How can I fool that serpent…”
From the expression on his face, even his complexion was paler.
She showed a sense of despair on her face that was not pushed back at all compared to when she was confirmed that Arya was dead.
[But what the hell did the descendants of Kalen do?]
Not only the sage but also other people were curious about the same thing.
If he had really been a fierce enemy, he wouldn’t have cooperated with Eileen in the second round, but Leo felt contempt for what he was feeling right now, as if he were facing pests.
“Where should I go for one or two things… A b*tch who walks on a tightrope with a human line and falls down.”
It was difficult to deny that. Eileen had softened up quite a bit now, but she still did similar things without hesitation at meetings.
[…What was the worst thing?]
Leonardo was in a state of panic due to the burden of acting he had been doing. Without thinking, he answered the question exactly as if he had been administered a confessional.
“…She sold her daughter to me.”
[…What?]
As soon as the wise man heard the answer, he felt it. I can’t ask for more of this…
“…How did you sell it?”
But by the time Ariasviel heard it, it was already too late.
“Wait…! Re…!”
“…I was trying to get her married. To put a leash on me.”
All of Reinhardt’s family felt that it was too late.
“…Uh… Aria? Ariaspil…? Fine…”
“It’s okay.”
Ariaspil replied with a brighter smile than when he left the conference room.
“Let’s rest first, right? You look very tired.”
“…Uh…Yes…”
Seeing Ariaspil and Leonardo go to the mansion, the wise man said quietly.
[He’s really serious…]
All had to agree.
Ariasviel’s not being jealous was like denying her life up until now.
At that time, the holy sword shook slightly.
That stupid decision ariaspil..
