Boy Who Has Been Reincarnated Twice Spends Peacefully as an S-Rank Adventurer, ~ I who was a Sage and a Hero of Previous World, Will Live in Peacefulness in the Next World~ - Chapter 209

“Demons are attacking!

While I was giving a lecture on blacksmithing skills to the dwarves again today, a report came in from the ground sentry about a demon attack by spirit magic with the help of the wind spirits.

“Okay, let’s go!”

Ha!

And under the command of Ms. Sharaza, the elven warriors descend toward the ground.

But why don’t the Dwarves show any sign of going to the ground, even though they are ready?

“Huh?　Aren’t you dwarves going to fight?”

“Yes, we are slow on our feet. First the elves, who are lighter than us, intercept the demons with magic, and when the enemy is damaged, they switch places with us and destroy them.

I see, taking into account the physical abilities of the races, the starters and replacements are decided on a race-by-race basis.

“Mister Lex, we want those of you who can use magic to come with us. Those who cannot use magic, come with the Dwarves as a latecomer.

“Then, Gyro and Norbu should be the latecomers.

“Well, why not? I can use offensive magic too.

Mr. Gyro complains about Ms. Mina’s division.

“You’re not good at shooting magic, are you? Then it’s better for you to be a late starter with Norbu, who plays the role of a healer.

I’m better in close quarters, too.

Then Mr. Megli asks if he is good.

“Meghri is better at ranged magic than Gyro, and I want her to escort me when the time comes.”

“Hmm, okay.”

So our advance party will be me, Liliela, Mina, and Megli.

But if we’re going to split, I think we should split 3:3. ……

“Isn’t that a little unbalanced?”

“Well, just in case. I think we can manage with just the starters anyway.”

“Well, that’s the way it’s going to be.”

“Hm, no need to start late.”

For some reason, they all assured me that there would be no problem with just the first team.

Do they have any evidence for this?

◆

When they came down to the ground, the battle had already begun.

The elves were shooting their magic at the demons from the tops of the walls and the branches of the world tree.

“Spirit of the earth!　Stop that demon in its tracks!”

“Spirit of the wind!　Rip out the joints of those demons!”

The spirit magic of the elves stops the demons, avoiding their hard shells and severing their joints.

“What?　How could the magic be activated with such a short chant?

Mina is surprised at the magic of the elves.

“Oh, the elves’ spirit magic is different from human magic, because they make a contract with spirits.

“What do you mean?”

Humans use magic by carving a formula called a spell into the world. But with spirit magic, the contracted spirit itself is the formula, so all you have to do is tell it to do something and it will do it on its own.

“That’s so unfair!”

Mina-san makes a scream characteristic of wizards who have never heard of spirit magic before.

I understand. Spirit magic is always in a standby state, and it activates as soon as you command it.

“But instead, the spirits make decisions and do everything, so it’s not very precise. That’s why I have to give them specific instructions, like stopping their legs or aiming at their joints. Even so, depending on the smartness or personality of the spirit, it may not understand my instructions and just attack at random.

Yes, spirit magic is surprisingly sketchy.

“Moreover, when you borrow the power of a spirit who has just made a contract with you, you will have to expend a lot of magic power. In order to achieve low magic power and high power, you need to take time to get to know the spirit.

That is why only elves with a long life span can master the spirit magic.

“Spirit magic is very hard to do with spirit magic. ……”

Anyway, stop talking and let us help you!

“Right.”

“Me and Megli, our magic is not powerful enough, so we will concentrate on checking and covering the elves.”

I’m on it.

Mina and I attack with magic, and Liliela and Megli cover us, and we decide on our roles and start to act.

“Then I’ll just hit them right in the middle of the enemy and confuse them!

“Okay. I’ll stay on the front lines and go after the less wounded demons.”

We decide on each other’s target and activate our magic.

Thunder Wedge!

First, Mina releases a magical thunderbolt, which pierces the middle of the monster’s body.

The lightning, however, did not disappear, but remained in the monster’s body, and furthermore, it bit into the ground, impeding the movement of the monster.

“Yes!”

Mina-san smiles at the magic.

This magic is a sustained magic that sews the target in place with a wedge of lightning, impeding its movement and inflicting further damage.

Furthermore, demons that come into contact with an ally who has been exposed to this magic are also electrocuted, causing them to rush away from their comrades and slowing down their march.

“Then I’ll do it too!　Burn burst break!”

I fire a spell from above, and it hits the monsters right in the middle of them.

At that moment, the monster hit by the magic causes a huge explosion, and the monster receiving the explosion causes another huge explosion, and the monster receiving the explosion causes another huge explosion.

This is the chain explosion magic “Burn Burst Break!

As long as there are enemies around, it will keep exploding infinitely!

The monsters that were hit by the chain explosion magic spread the chain of explosions rapidly, as if a large flower was spreading from the center of the chain.

“What is that ……?

“Oh, is that human magic?

“What a terrible ……!

Seeing the chain explosion magic, the elven warriors stop fighting and look surprised.

Yes, they are young warriors who have been out of this township for a long time, so they are not familiar with human magic.

But the spirit magic of skilled elves is nothing like this.

“hello!” and a great spirit blows away an army.

For us mortals, the magic of the elves is more terrifying.

It’s not that big of a magic. It’s just a pest control magic commonly used in human lands.

“”””Pest control magic?

“Yes, it is a magic developed to exterminate troublesome demons such as the Ant-type that occur in large numbers.

Strictly speaking, this magic is not only for insects, but also for all kinds of demons that occur in large numbers.

“That kind of magic will get rid of ……?”

“Are there really demons in the outside world that require magic like that?

Well, it’s a big world. I was surprised when I first saw a horde of army-type demons.

When I came to the area on business and saw the current situation, I even panicked and developed an extermination magic.

The outside world is scary. ……””””

The elves are blue-faced and shivering when they realize that the outside world is full of pests.

Maybe they don’t like insect-type demons?

I see. That’s why elves don’t come out to human villages.

It’s hard to have something you’re not good at on a race level.

“Human wizards are misunderstood ……”

“Don’t be fooled. Only a few in the human world are capable of such a feat.”

“There are misconceptions about elves as well as dwarves: ……”

No, no, no, it’s not a misunderstanding, it’s normal.

It’s a normal thing for military wizards belonging to the state, you know?

Anyway, the chain explosion magic worked well, and with the cooperation of the elves, the demons were soon destroyed.

“Thank God! Thanks to Rex and the others, we were able to repel the enemy surprisingly quickly. And they didn’t just retreat, they destroyed them.”

Ms. Sharaza thanks us for destroying the enemy.

“But you were able to defeat them so easily. Perhaps there were not so many enemies this time?

According to Ms. Sharaza, the number of demons attacking the township must be quite large.

And yet it was so easy to defeat them.

No, no, the numbers were the same as usual.

“Is that so?”

What does that mean?　The strength of the demons is not so great, but their numbers are the same as usual?

……, could it be the result of the hard work of the main force of elf warriors fighting outside the township?

They have reduced the number of powerful demons, so maybe the demons coming to the township are becoming weaker and weaker.

We’ve come at a very good time, I guess.

I feel a little sorry for the elven warriors fighting outside the township.

“Oh, um, ……”

While I was thinking about this, one of the elven warriors started talking to me.

“Yes, what is it?”

“Oh, yes. Yes. That creature is your pet ……, isn’t it?”

“Huh?”

The elf warrior’s gaze leads him to look outside the township and he sees a white sphere moving out of the forest.

“What the heck?

I rush down to the ground and pick up Mohamofu.

“Gyuu!

Mohamofu growls at me, as if to say, “What are you doing?

“Cuuuuuuuuh!”

“Hey Fluffy, there are a lot of dangerous monsters out there, so don’t go out without permission!”

“Cuun.”

Why can’t I have a mohumofu?　But, you can’t do anything without being cute.

Because it’s dangerous out there.

“Well, I’m going home.”

“Cuuuuhn.”

With Mohamofu still flailing around and wanting to get out, I head back to my hometown.

Later, I would realize that this behavior of Mohamofu had an important meaning.
