It Is A Different World And Yet I Am Cultivating Monsters - 156 156 "Temptation of the Snake II"

“Grow a demon?

I nodded my head at the unexpected words from Felid.

I didn’t expect such a request from this man.

I’ve heard that he became a hero and a great hero after defeating various demons.

His abilities and character are just right for a brave man.

Why would such a man ask me to grow demons?

I’ve been thinking about this when Phytis, who was blown away by Tsurugi-san, wakes up and approaches me.

There you are: ……. Lord Kyou, what exactly happened?　And you’ll be at …… Mr. Felid?　Why here?

“Oh, Phytis. . actually, …….

“Wait, Keogh. Let’s talk about it in the house. And while we’re at it, I’ll have you tell me more about what you’re asking for.

“Okay. It would be better for you.

I’m sure you’ll be able to find a way to make the most of it.

◇ ◇ ◇

Really? ……. That Mr. Tsurugi is ……

Finished listening, Phytis muttered with her eyes downcast.

Believe it or not, Phytis was actually blown away by Turugi and knocked out.

Phytis herself seems to remember this, and accepts the situation, albeit somewhat puzzled.

Luna, on the other hand…

“All right, but I want to ask you one question. But I have one question. Why is this Tsurugi guy trying to kill me?

As if we don’t know why we are being targeted ourselves, we ask questions that we can’t answer.

We don’t know that for sure. Are you sure that Luna doesn’t remember anything about herself?　In fact, have you met Turugi-san somewhere before?

Hmmm.

Luna’s face was troubled for a while by my question, but after a few seconds she declared in a matter-of-fact tone: “I don’t understand.

I don’t know.

Oh, I’m sure.

Since there is no sign of memory, I decided that there was no point in talking about it any longer.

Then let’s talk about the other thing. FERRID. What the hell brings you to ask this guy to grow demons for you?

In response to Lily’s question, Ferry struggles with what to say first.

Eventually, he says the first word thoughtfully.

I heard that you guys were headed to the Arabian Kingdom not long ago. That’s when I heard that you were headed to the Kingdom of the Arabians. I was told that you had taken a dead demon and cultivated it, keeping its memories and emotions alive.

Dead demon?　Could it possibly be about the mother’s manticore who raised Singh?

Asked that question, Mr. Ferrid nodded.

That’s right. That’s right. If that’s possible, I’d like you to help me bring back some of the demons I’ve killed in the form of cultivation.

We are puzzled by Mr. Ferrid who asks us to bow our heads.

Of course it’s possible. Why would Mr. Ferrid ask me to grow the monster he says he killed?

When we asked him about it, he looked down, his eyes downcast and somewhat sad.

You’re right. …… That’s right. If you’re going to ask me to do this kind of thing, you should tell me all about it, right?

Says Felid, muttering to himself.

“The monster’s name is SS-rank Bahamut. She was like a mother and sister to me, the monster I killed.

◇ ◇ ◇

“…………

Far away in the forest, Tsurugi is alone and pondering.

Her goal is to kill Luna.

She has lived for a long time just for that.

This is a role only she can play.

And if she doesn’t fulfill it, the final evolution of this world will not be possible.

For the sake of her own role and, above all, for the sake of those who are important to her, Luna must be killed.

And as a result, no matter what anyone thinks of her.

She should have had that much determination, but there was a slight hesitation.

It wasn’t because she had been thwarted by FERRID.

It was because she saw Kyou who was desperate to protect Luna.

The moment Tsurugi saw Luna above all, he secretly felt a slight hesitation in himself.

…… I’m sweet too. I have to be more ruthless to achieve my goal.

Even if it means hurting Kyou or someone else.

But Tsurugi dismissed his inability to muster that much determination as naivete and weakness.

“You look troubled. “Silver Shadow Hero, Tsurugi-san.”

Tsurugi turned around at the sound of his voice. It was an unexpected person.

…… You are…

If you need help, I can help you with that?

He laughed at this creepy young man with a creepy smile plastered on his face.

Tsurugi quietly muttered his name.

What’s the ploy of an SS-ranked demon to help me?　”‘Snake’, no, Azi Dahaka.

The young man who was called by name stood quietly, with an eerie smile on his face.
