224 – Reverse thinking-4
“Come on, then let’s finish the explanation.”
[Do you want to feed him more water? Isn’t it good that you didn’t commit suicide?]
Eileen, completely white, banged her head against the wall like her woodpecker.
The word ‘sorry’ muttered through her mouth reminded her of an anxiety disorder.
“If I comfort you, won’t it get worse?”
[That’s right.]
“Leave it alone. That kind of thing is time consuming.”
I was confused about whether that meant Eileen’s self-loathing or Eileen herself.
Either way it didn’t really matter, so no one bothered to point it out.
“So what was he trying to say…”
“…Could that explain the black magic you used during your berserker days?”
Ameri, a sorceress, couldn’t help but be curious about the strange black magic. It was an idea she never thought of that the magic created by Magi would destroy the existence of Magi.
“Oh, thank you. Sister-in-law.”
“So… Such a title is…”
Ameri noticed the people around her at the title sister-in-law.
I had a healthy relationship with Rios, but I was told to keep it a secret externally.
Far from being a prestigious family herself, she was only a despised half-elf and had just become the assistant manager of the owner of the Black Tower.
“If it feels burdensome, I will stop. But I don’t have to worry too much about it, since I have all the authority of the head of state anyway.”
Furthermore, apart from Yuhan Gladio, at the point where even the fussy Marken was looking at Ameri without any objection, the title sister-in-law was no different from being permitted.
“…Well, first of all, explain the black magic!! Sun-Annardo!!”
“Don’t change someone’s name lovingly.”
I was talking nonsense at the end, but it was necessary to explain the black magic clearly.
Just by saying that, you will be able to understand at once the method of attacking your devil and the danger of the demon lord.
“First of all, it is necessary to explain after the temple collapsed after you all died and the Holy Emperor died of old age.”
{…The temple collapsed…}
Not only Angela but also Lumine were quite shocked.
If you look at the world Leonardo lived in, you can see that the temple is not in order, but it was a shocking explanation for those who desperately believe in faith.
“From then on, it was just the start of the scandal. Everyone accepted Magi one by one because they didn’t want to be latecomers.”
“…That’s…”
I remembered what Leonardo had said while holding onto Chris, sobbing.
Even though Reinhardt was drawn, mankind chose defeat and surrender for the reason that it was not victory.
“The sh*t continued. At the point when they used the title ‘Evil’ in ‘Majin’, saying that they have transcended humans, humanity is no better than a piece of toilet paper.”
It was a terrible story to imagine.
The fact that the structure of humans and demons has reached the point of being completely reversed means that humanity has been completely defeated.
They couldn’t even look up at the fact that their mistakes and blunders snowballed and caused such an issue.
“But an interesting development has begun. In a way, it is natural.”
Leonardo smiled at the thought of that. It was a mockery of demons, and at the same time, it was also a bitter laugh of self-condemnation towards humans.
[They started hitting each other.]
The wise man was the first to grasp the context of the story.
At the words of the cynical sage, everyone except Leonardo was shocked. It was a surprising fact, but it wasn’t a story that made no sense in a way.
“If those trashes had united well and achieved world peace, I would have been mine long ago. In the first place, humans themselves are a bunch of flaws, but wouldn’t Mine, the extreme evolution of that trash, have any problems?”
It was a remark critical of human beings, but there was no room for refutation.
Humans also have a history stained with blood from war, so it wouldn’t be strange if that happened to demons as well.
“As the chiefs of demons in each region made a fuss with each other saying that they would become demon kings, a simple dog fight turned into a dog fight.”
There was room for a counterattack.
“It’s because the way I fight openly is rough, but what I did was an assassination. It’s the role of beheading each other when you’ve been damaged beyond repair by fighting each other.”
The self-proclaimed sage Aileen created such a situation, and the adult Lumine managed to control the remaining humans from turning into demons.
“As a result, even the war weapons wearing devil’s masks, such as berserkers and demon kings, were somehow able to fight. If we fight without strategy, the country will die too.”
From Leonardo’s point of view, it was a level of encouragement that it was a battle worth losing if you didn’t know, but those who heard this realized that they were rather arrogant.
Because even the warriors who created and practiced strategies to kill those monsters objectively judged their capabilities.
[Then, that black magic…]
“It was made by Mine and Warlock to trick each other. I learned about black magic itself naturally after fighting to death with those guys.”
It was a paradoxical reason.
It was as if the human malice had been transferred to the demons without filtering.
“That’s why the demon king is more of a problem.”
Leonardo, who saw that malice with his naked eyes in the dark, was able to imagine more than that.
He could have imagined something worse than this.
“…Certainly the demon lord will be stronger than this…”
[There may be some, but that’s not all.]
Even the sage understood.
The reason the demon king is now dangerous is not just because he is strong.
“Imagine that they do not check each other, but cooperate and fight in perfect order according to the order of the ‘king’.”
“…A catastrophe…”
It was a literal disaster.
If monsters like berserkers pushed forward in the form of an army, there would be no chance of victory even if the entire human race united and fought.
“It’s probably impossible to bring out those monsters all at once. If it were possible, everyone in this room would have died.”
If I could summon all the demons in the first round, I would have wiped them out long ago.
I was relieved right away at the point of not doing it.
“Still, it’s all risky. You are smarter than you think.”
Even though it meant that there was room for it.
At the point of summoning the berserker in front of a large army, the demon king’s strategic judgment was by no means low.
“Unless you’re at the level of the Death King, it’s possible to overwhelm most of them with numbers. Vampires who increase objects, even enemies who use hallucinations do not do business in front of quantity.”
From common sense, if you can control the military, the more you have, the more advantageous the battle.
If it is a subjugation rather than a war, the advantage of quantity warfare rises vertically.
“But on purpose, that bastard summoned a berserker when he came to the last room while all his men were dying.”
“…You mean to induce distraction?”
Marken, who has a lot of bones in subjugating Mine, looked back on the battle situation. He felt that the process was going smoothly, so he dared to assemble his troops at once.
“Yes. Berserkers are at a disadvantage if they fight alone in the first place, but if they fight in groups, they are more disadvantageous.”
I could understand without any additional explanation.
Berserkers were monsters that used even the corpses of ordinary soldiers as recovery potions and strength enhancers, and were symbols of gluttony that ate up common sense.
“Honestly, even if I had dragon scales, if Ariaspil had fought alone, I would have won, even if it was difficult.”
“…Ah, no… How can I…”
“Don’t be humble. To me, that is deception.”
The sage who saw that said to himself, “Deceive the map as if you were eating a meal.” The reason he didn’t say it directly was because he had committed a sin against Leo.
“…Surely that’s the case. Strategically superior…”
I understand the wise man’s words.
Now the Demon King has acquired human intelligence, which means that he has gained wisdom.
“Well, it is not a problem that can be solved by worrying about it right away. It’s better to start with what you can understand now.”
In the current situation, it was reasonable to put aside difficult problems that were even difficult to read and solve problems that could be understood first.
[What is that?]
“Aren’t you curious about the reason for Ariasviel’s attempted murder?”
I didn’t say anything out of my mouth, but I was curious inside.
In the first place, I knew that killing was not the purpose at the point where Ariasviel had no objection, but it was because I couldn’t clearly find any other reasons.
“…To get inside the holy sword.”
Ariaspil, the only one who entered the holy sword together, knows why.
“Arias Fil was also seriously injured, and he was just about to die as well. He was a gamble, but something I had to check.”
“Then why did you say that at trial…”
“You guys made me look bad without knowing that Chris was hurt.”
It was an explanation like magic that closed in an instant.
“Anyway, the results showed me what I wanted to know.”
I believed that I would not die, but it was a gamble that made my heart race, both collectively and individually.
The information obtained in return gave good assurance.
“I expected it, but Ruben wasn’t the hero Ariasviel had met so far.”
“…Yes…Yes?!”
Everyone was surprised by that one word.
The only ones with a low level of surprise were the two heroic spirits and Ariaspil himself.
Even Ariaspil himself was shocked in a different way.
‘…You were making fun of Ruben when you knew it…’
He couldn’t help but be surprised to find out that he deliberately emphasized the title Ruben and provoked him by saying that he had nothing to do with it.
[… If it’s not Ruben, then he’s another hero, right?]
“Uh, it would be more appropriate to say that I was a senior hero rather than a first hero.”
Everybody seemed to have a weak sense of the warrior called the senior.
“…No way…”
“I thought there was no way I would die, but I never imagined that a lifeline would be attached like that.”
Leonardo smiled bitterly and pointed at Ariaspil’s Holy Sword.
“Ariaspil from play 1 is on the holy sword. Precisely, it is only consciousness.”
“…That’s…”
Everyone was seriously conflicted over what to say.
That was partly because of the existence of Leo, who had a deep acquaintance with the 1st round Ariasvil, but also because he had to consider the existence of the 2nd round Ariaspil right next to him.
It was an unexpected variable because it was unusual for the 1st and 2nd rounds to be separated with completely different personalities.
{…Then why did you try to kill the Ariaspil hero like that…}
Everyone could understand to some extent.
Ariaspil was destroyed along with the demon king in the first playthrough.
As a result, humanity succumbs to demoniac, and Leonardo throws himself into an endless struggle.
If you saw it all and couldn’t do anything, the self-hatred towards him would be beyond imagination.
And you know Ariasviel’s jealousy…
“But I don’t think that is all.”
When even Ariaspil himself thought so, Leonardo denied it.
“…Isn’t it?”
“Rather than no, I don’t think that’s all there is to it.”
There were a few things that didn’t make sense to say that it was a simple killing intent out of self-hatred or jealousy.
“If that’s really all, there’s no need to save you when you’re dying at the time I lost my memory.”
“…That’s…”
Definitely.
I poured out all kinds of anger and anger with verbal abuse, but when I first met Ariasviel, I didn’t kill him right away, I saved him and sent him out of the holy sword.
Obviously, if left alone, he would have died.
“…Leonardo-sama might feel guilty…”
“If you say something like that, it’s strange that you’re trying to kill me now.”
That wasn’t wrong either.
Actually, when I went for the 2nd and 3rd times, Ariasviel in the Holy Sword somehow tried to trap Arya inside the Holy Sword.
“…It’s true that Ariasviel hates you, but Aria, you’re not simply dying… Should I say it’s some kind of opportunity, but it seems like he wants to be better than himself, and on the other hand, he’s disappointed…”
“Uh… I… hang on.”
When Leonardo himself tried to understand the intentions of Aria Spiel in the holy sword, Chris opened his mouth with a dizzy expression as if his head was overloaded.
“…That…I’m really sorry…But it’s really hard to tell them apart with my understanding and literacy…”
Chris knows he’s saying something rude. However, with his own lack of wisdom, he had no confidence to grasp and follow this conversation.
“It is difficult to tell the difference between the aria in the Holy Sword and the aria here…”
Chris said with an embarrassing expression on his face, but in fact, this was what everyone else was thinking.
It was just that the situation was so heavy that it exceeded common sense, so I didn’t touch it.
“Anyway, it is necessary to distinguish between titles. Even with my reading comprehension, overlapping proper nouns are difficult to distinguish.”
She couldn’t tell the difference between her daughter and Ain, and when she said that, she couldn’t get over it anymore.
[Is there anything difficult? Just divide it into round 1 and round 2…]
{Sage! That’s why you can’t fall in love! Then, doesn’t Ariaspil here look like a latecomer!}
And with the help of those two ghosts, things got bigger.
“…Then speaking of Aria in the Holy Sword and Aria in reality…”
“But the aria in the Holy Sword is not fake…”
“Then, how about short arias and long arias…”
“I heard that he wore a helmet, so that’s true…”
In a way, it was trivial, but in a different way, it was an important issue to share the identity of the two Ariaspiles.
Since both of them were Ariaspil, a precious family member, it was difficult to affirm the title easily.
“…Then it’s not really…”
Ariasviel, realizing that he would run out of control, shut his mouth on his own.
Ariaspil was not immature enough to talk childishly about cheating and concubinage in such a weighty matter.

Of course, if I had to decide on that title, it would be appropriate for Choice To be the person next to Leo.
Jeongsil Is the right thing for a woman who stays by your side. That’s Chastity.
Anyone can see that, isn’t it?
In the end, it was decided that Leonardo would suggest white arias and black arias.
Perhaps it’s because Ariasviel usually wears white clothes.
It must have had a big effect on her favorite Leonardo wearing her black clothes.
