Keizoku wa Maryoku Nari -Munou Mahou ga Benri Mahou ni - 317 Lesson 23 World Rules

“Satan and I were the first to be born in this world.”

The spirits began to explain.

“That demon… who was reborn?”

“I don’t know either. The devil can’t live without parasites, just like I do. So… it’s been over a thousand years and I still don’t know who the devil is. If you know, Miho-chan’s the only one.”

Miho? Another name came up that I didn’t know.

“Miho… Rubella?”

Yeah, the Destroyer’s name from his previous life.

That’s right. The demon was born of a demon who dealt with destruction magic.

When you’re infected by a demon, are you manipulated?

Sure! Maybe you want to know that.

Maybe the Destroyer himself is a good man.

“I don’t know. I’ve never had anything other than trees…”

Well then, come in and give me a try.

Oh. Michael’s a gambler.

So, what are you going to do if this spirit does what it wants to do with your body? It’s not like he’s still a friend, is it?

Um. If I go in, I might not be able to get out.

“Never mind. This body is already dying at dawn tomorrow.”

Yeah, that’s what I meant.

When I saw you before, you always said you couldn’t live without magic power from the dungeons.

“… that’s right. Now then, I’ll share the life of your teacher with you.”

“What do you mean?”

“When you parasitize, you can give magic power to the host as a thank you.” That tree has grown and shone until now called the Divine Tree, but at first it was no different from the trees around here, right? ”

I see. The magic of the spirits has raised you to that size.

Does your life depend on the amount of magic power you have?

“Too bad. Seventy o’clock.” I and the demon’s body are magic. That’s why you can’t create magic power on your own, just like people and demons. If you lose your magic power, you’ll lose your very existence. ”

“I see… I wonder if I have to be parasitic to survive.”

Since you can’t create magic power yourself, you have to let yourself into someone else’s body.

That’s quite an inconvenient body.

“Yes, I usually live with the magic power of Felicia stored in the tree.” But just now, there’s no reason for me to live any longer, so I’ll give you as much magic power as I want. ”

“Huh? What do you mean?”

These spirits are so far-fetched.

I have to think about tomorrow’s operation, but I don’t think we’re talking in vain.

“Wait a minute. Announcements are coming to everyone right now.”

“However, from now on, reincarnators and their duplicates are prohibited from moving across the sea. The moment the Reincarnator is alone, this rule will be extinguished.”

“… added rules? Did you do it?”

No, this voice isn’t the voice of the Spirit, is it? This is definitely a man’s voice.

“It’s not me, it’s the devil.” The devil realized that you were here, and he used the last rule. ”

“You’ve been lured into this…”

“Hey, are those rules some kind of skill?”

I’ve been talking about rules and rules as if they were normal for everyone to know, but I don’t know what you’re talking about.

“Oh, I’m sorry. It’s a skill that only me and the devil can use.” You can force people from all over the world to follow the rules you make, only three times each. ”

What the hell is that cheat skill? You’re too strong.

“With such skills, why is the battle going on for a thousand years?” If you do it three times, you can easily do something about the world, right? ”

“There are two main reasons.” The first reason is that there is a limit to not having rules that disadvantage only certain people. ”

“Tell me a little more about how much disadvantage you’re going to face.”

Even the rules set by the devil this time are disadvantageous from Michiel, who would die if he wasn’t in the dungeon.

How far is it going to go, and how far is it going to go?

“Um… it’s difficult. It’s going to feel like mine, but you can’t just target someone and set the rules. And I can’t kill you directly with the rules.”

Well… somehow I don’t understand.

This time, it’s for everyone.

“What’s the second reason?”

“It’s easy. This skill is overwhelmingly more advantageous to use later, so we both hesitate to use it first. Especially since I definitely wouldn’t set the rules for myself, the devil had to wait and see for a long time.”

By the way, what are the rules?

“The first is the rule that reincarnators pass on their abilities to their offspring when they reach the end of their lives. The second rule is that if it is not settled within fifty years, I will punish everyone with a penalty and the devil, but I will punish only the three who have never died to a slight disadvantage.”

First, I don’t understand why you added that rule, but the second one has the strength of posteriori.

The more the devil said that the rule was almost nullified, the more weakened the scope and effect of the penalty.

“The first… the cause of the muddle was the teacher, right?”

“It can’t be helped!” If I didn’t, I’d have to kill everyone until they died according to the rules set by the devil. ”

What rules did the devil put out before that?

“Reincarnated must be killed until they die.”

Huh. The devil set the rules.

“So you’ve blurred the definition of death and reduced the coercion of killing each other.”

Michiel said that and was convinced by himself.

The definition of death is vague… “Yeah, I figured out what I wanted to say.

There is a deadline to die, so the Reincarnators have to kill each other within that set deadline.

However, by removing life from the definition of death, it was accepted as one of the strategies to connect the next generation of batons to life without killing them.

“I’m really sorry. If I had been smarter… I wouldn’t have tormented you for so long.”

“No, I think it was a good decision.” As a result, most of the first generation survived without killing each other. You owe it to the teacher. Thank you. ”

Even so, Tatsuya-kun, Miho-kun, and Kenji-kun have suffered for a long time

From the standpoint of the Creator and the Destroyer, is Kenji the name of the Demon King?

“Don’t you feel sorry for me?”

Rosé, who lived a thousand years and was the only one not to have been called by his name, was displeased.

“Felicia has died many times, and basically she had a cage and didn’t have any hard work.”

“I’m struggling!” And now it’s not Felicia, it’s Roséne. ”

“Yes, well then, say hello to Roséne from now on.” That’s why Rosène is changing her name like this, so there’s no problem! ”

“Let’s get back to it.” At first, the teacher told me that when the teacher dies, I have a bad future ahead of me, right? I’ve already told you all this information. Can you tell me what that means? ”

Let’s get back to that. Speaking of which, you haven’t even told me why the more fundamental spirits and demons are letting Reincarnators kill each other.

“Yeah, I can talk to you now.” There are two rules in this world besides the rules that I and the devil have set. ”

“Two? Are there any rules for the teachers?”

“Correct. These two are the rules imposed on me and the devil.”

Is it a rule that spirits and demons can fight?

And it looks like we’re two pawns?

“You’re not wrong. One, the devil must destroy the world by killing me. Two, I must protect the world by killing demons. This is the rule we’ve been asked to follow.”

The demon king expected a surrogate war between several gods, but I felt like we were being used for the whims of the gods.

Well, if you think that it’s being mixed up with such things, it’s going to be in vain, so let’s think that it’s a proxy war between a good god and a bad god.

“Hey. I’ve been wondering, do you really have to follow these rules?” You haven’t been touched by the punishment for not keeping it, have you? ”

Huh. For Kenji’s sake, I’m going to ask you a sharp question.

When the guru raised his hand and asked questions, the spirits said such a thing and looked a little surprised.

Huh? The Demon King was an intelligent image… Could it be that it was different in the previous life?

“Well, this guy only has memories of Kenji.” Also, Kenji turned his head when he saw it. ”

“Huh? Really!? I didn’t even notice that… after all, I’m disqualified as a teacher.”

Michil pointed out that the spirits were depressed.

After all, this spirit was a teacher of reincarnators in his previous life.

“Hey, I don’t care about that Kenji, so answer my question quickly.” After all, don’t you have to abide by the rules? ”

“I’ll protect you, but you won’t.” The rules of the world will always be followed. ”

How did you do that?

That bothers me. Is there any punishment for failing to protect something?

“That’s right… do you think you want to cross the sea now?”

No, I don’t think so.

”If I had told you… I might have naturally thought that you shouldn’t cross the sea”

And even now, when I think about crossing the sea, I feel that my thoughts are blurred.

“Yes, that’s the enforceability of this rule.” You can plant other people’s memories in a newborn baby? It’s as simple as manipulating people’s minds. ”

If you ask me, yes. It means we can force them to defend, not not defend.

In principle, it’s the same as common sense modification.

“Is that what this was about…” I’ve been wondering. How can you, including me, not hesitate to kill your former classmates, who are never others, and most people don’t feel guilty? I’ve always wondered… ”

Michiel looked indescribable.

Perhaps you’re thinking of the faces of the Reincarnated that you’ve killed so far.

Well, I guess I can’t help but notice that this isn’t just about making rules.

“So, what does this teacher have to do with the last rule?”

“I see… I have an idea, but I don’t want the devil to understand my idea, and I’ll keep it as a trump card until the last minute.”

Well, a trump card can be a very powerful weapon just to make you aware of it.

“I think I’d better do that too.” Ah, Sensei… why don’t you go inside my body and share a little magic? I want to call my daughters-in-law here, but if I use magic, I’ll die. ”

“Roger that! Uh, uh… I’m nervous about going inside…”

“Come on in.”

“Rosène, stop…”

Rosé used the barrier to push a spirited spirit in front of Mihil’s chest.

Now, I don’t think I’m going to be betrayed by this story, but are you sure you’re okay with letting the spirits parasite?

“Oh… Since when do you feel the magic from your own body to this point?” I didn’t expect this to happen. ”

While saying that, Michiel made a hole in the space.

And then, two daughters-in-law jumped out from behind the hole.

“Wow! It’s been a long time, sunshine, my eyes are going to burn.”

It’s been a long time since the wind was so good.

By the way, these people have been in a dark dungeon for hundreds of years.

I don’t have the confidence to be in a closed space.

I’m sorry that you both have been locked in a narrow dungeon because of me.

“Don’t worry about it.” I just wanted to be around you more than outside. ”

“That’s right. We loved it, so we don’t have to apologize.”

Thank you. Let’s have dinner while thinking about tomorrow’s operation.

“Very good. It’s been a long time since I had a bonfire!”

“I want a drink!”

“Are you stupid? Didn’t you hear there’s a big fight tomorrow?”

“I’m kidding, but when it’s all over, we all want to go around the fire and drink again.”

Yeah, I’ll drink with you as long as you like when you’re settled.

“Really!? It’s a promise!”

“Yeah, I promise.”

As always, these three are good friends. I’m sure these people are the most ideal couple in the world.

When I saw the three people talking happily, I thought that they wanted to be like this all the time.

“Fufufu. Now then, let’s prepare dinner together.” Ah, by the way, I’ll let you take charge of the fire! ”

Well then, let’s prepare a meal for ourselves.

That’s right.

“Do the bells cook?” Well then, shall I… make enough dishes for all of you? ”

“Ah, Leo, let me do that too!” I’ll show you my creativity! ”

Um, yeah.

Do you need so much creativity on your plate?

Well, I guess I’m just glad I can use my magic for the first time in a while.
