After putting on the mask again, I followed the Elder's instructions and went into the woods.
For a moment, after falling into the sensation of being in the water, the forest of twilight, which was a very ordinary forest, changed.
Even though it was only in harmony with nature, there was a village there.
It was a Dragon Man village.
"We have shelters all over the country, but we have a long life here." Everyone loves living here. ”
“I'm sorry for that. I wanted to get my child back early. I hope you'll forgive each other."
"I don't want to blame you. If you know who you are, even more so."
Confronted with several dragon people, I was guided to the elder's house while being seen with strange eyes.
"No one enters without permission. You can talk slowly here."
"Then I'd like to hear it now." Perhaps my mother has been infected by the virus. But my mother is a civilian. Why does it take? Isn't it a poison to target the strong? "
"All I know is that the poison of Wepal is thinking. It's not a group, it's an individual. As each poison learns, it's on its way to the ultimate goal: the bloodline of a hero. That's why there are variations in the evolution of poison. However, my mother probably got sick when she was pregnant. This disease does not develop soon. Looks like your lord hasn't gotten sick yet. There was a period of incubation. If a child possesses the magical power of a lord in her womb... it's not strange that her mother should be the target of poison."
The answer was more or less predictable.
At the same time, there are people who regret that the prediction was not denied.
I mean... it's my fault.
"If I get sick... what happens?"
"Gradually weaken your body, and eventually take your life." There is no way to cure it completely. And the poison becomes more powerful and moves to another. It's a repetition. "
Can't you prolong your life?
"It's not like I don't have a way... but what happens when I do that?" The virus had enormous magic power and reached its master, who was also an SS-class adventurer. There is no longer a future for the Ardler clan. And to Amsberg. The empire that holds vast territory collapses. The demon will take advantage of the confusion. If that happens, it's all over. "
"Are you telling me to give up...?" You want me to give up everything because of the poison that was scattered 500 years ago? If only I knew! "
“What do you want to do? Whether the record is communicated or not, the results are still the same. Also, it seems that the record has not been communicated, but the measures have been taken. Ardler brushed his blood and kept the poison away. And I protected Amsberg from fading blood. I did what I could."
I'm silent on the elder's words.
Ardler brought more blood into himself.
I thought it was to prepare for an anticipated demon invasion in the future, but was it also a countermeasure against poison?
And because of the presence of the poison, Amsberg accepted the status of the House of Heroes.
To keep the powerful lineage of the Holy Sword alive and to keep it from fading.
"... if I kill Wepal, will the poison go away...?"
“That's for sure. The power of the devil vanishes when the devil vanishes. But Wepal was the only demon the heroes had ever defeated. The demon king fell and Wepal fled to the demon world with the remaining demons. If it doesn't rain black, it's deep enough to think it's dead. In fact, until the black rain, we thought that all the demon king's sidekick had been wiped out. The hero was thoroughly defeating the demon king's entourage. As long as Wepal doesn't have much to lose, he won't come out of the demon realm."
When I heard the elder's words, I nodded one by one.
Then there is only one thing to do.
"Tell me how to get to the demon world." I'll crush you. "
"The hole that connects to the demon world is basically one-way. I could summon them, but I couldn't. Even the demons used their summoning to invade. You can't go to the Demon Realm unless you're summoned from over there."
"Then how did you get home!?"
"They were expanding their holes when they were summoned." From there, the devil came again and again. But after Wepal retreated, the hole was closed. By a brave man. "
"There was a hole... but you didn't send the Crusaders!"
"There was no such power on the continent!" A brave man offered us a crusade, but we stopped him! It took a super-powerful blow from the outside to close the hole. Only the Holy Sword of the Brave could do it. In the unlikely event that a brave man were defeated in the demon world, he would lose his brave man and holy sword, and the hole would not be closed. I couldn't risk that! "
I can tell by the expression on my face that it was a difficult decision.
But the result is now.
Before I know it, I want you to be infected by the virus and say that the fate of humanity is not far away.
