Saikyou Juzoku Tensei ~Cheat Majutsushi no Slow Life~ - Chapter 142

Chapter 142

Each of them had a magic beast in hand, and the private army returned .

Most of the packs of magic beasts had retreated deep into the mountains .

I heard that there were fears that the damage from the magic beasts would hinder the recovery of distribution in the future, but I heard that they didn’t have to worry about that .

As long as you have an escort, you should be able to travel to other cities as long as it’s not a rare occurrence .

The troops that had been divided into three groups in front of the village assembled and gathered before entering the village .

They lined up at the entrance, and Euris announced a temporary dismissal .

The troops who were still nervous let out a big sigh and rejoiced in each other’s safety .

“I’m really, really sorry for everything,”

After the dismissal, Euris was the first to come to me .

“If it wasn’t for you, my lord’s private army might have been wiped out . If that had happened now, this territory would have been……”

Euris face turned pale and her words were slurred .

It was in a tone of voice that was horrible to say .

“Yes, yes! You’re our hero! What, are you a famous magician in the city by any chance?”

The big man, Dante, overheard the conversation between me and Euris and came closer .

He’s a tough guy, but a pleasant guy .

“Well, I’m from a rural minority……”

“I bet you could take down that bastard Icarus, couldn’t you? Right? Right!”

Icarus…… hey .

I’d like to know the size of Icarus’ faction and how cohesive it is .

It doesn’t seem to be someone that can be dealt with by hitting them directly .

“…… Be careful how you put it . We better not be antagonistic to Icarus-dono . All I can say from our standpoint is that we need to work together a bit more . ”

Euris glares at Dante .

“Yes, that’s right…… but it really pisses me off . ”

…… From what I heard, he’s an opponent even the lord can’t keep his head up .

Looking at the state of Euris, there may be people from Icarus’ side mixed in with the private army as well .

It’s going to be quite painful to bring their authority down .

I and Mea parted from the private army’s members and decided to return to the lord’s mansion .

After this, each unit leader will report to Lark and discuss the prey in hand .

After that is done, they will gather the private army again, processing and storage .

He said that with this amount, he would have to ask the residents for help .

However, I was already exhausted (mainly by transportation), so I asked to let us rest in the lord’s mansion as is .

Besides, I want to check on the condition of the Hamelin I got earlier .

It’s a rare demon, after all .

There are many things I want to investigate .

And if things go well, we may be able to determine the spirit user who used Hamelin to attack the private army .

“…… Abel, is your leg okay?”

“I feel like today is the most I’ve walked since I was born…… I’ve been taking breaks and riding the Ortem, so well, I guess I’ll just need to take three days off and I’ll be back to full strength……”

The sunlight was terrible too .

I thought about using sorcery to collect clouds, but I couldn’t stop the queue, and that sorcery can cause the climate to collapse and cause a lot of trouble if it’s done without a plan .

I think it’s fine because we were just in trouble from the drought, but it is said that the magic that manipulates the weather can also trigger a war if done poorly .

…… We have to listen to our lord and the high magician who has been here for more than six months .

The Dinrat Kingdom must have had such a national law .

“Oh, it looks more serious than I thought…… Mea will give you a massage again!”

“I seriously request . ”

It was a different entrance than when we left, so this was the first time we were taking the road, but I already heard from Euris about the way to the lord’s house .

It wasn’t so complicated, so you won’t get lost .

“Hmm, that…… . . is there something being built?”

Mea’s voice caught my attention, and I turned my head to look past her gaze .

A short distance away, there was a building under construction .

It was one size larger than the other houses .

It was taller, but it didn’t appear to be two stories .

More than a dozen men were coming in and out of the building, working on it .

I saw a young man approaching there .

A familiar blue robe, a thick scripture that could serve as a blunt instrument .

A good-looking, snappy sink-eye .

He was Ringus, a missionary of the Water God .

One of the men noticed him, stopped his work, and ran over to him .

“Ringus-san! What do you think? It’s starting to take shape, isn’t it?”

“Oh, wonderful…… I can feel your faith and passion just by looking at it . ”

Ringus touched a hand to the wall, caressing it affectionately .

“Ehhehehe . I’m honored to have you compliment me, Ringus-san! I’ll tell everyone about it . ”

The man seems embarrassed and replies, scratching his head .

“Thank you . Building a church in another country has been one of my dreams since I was a child…… so I’m really glad to have met you guys……”

“No, no! There’s no need to thank me for that! It was us rather who were saved! I wish more of the other guys would listen to Ringus-san…… because we’re all here with that in mind!”

“If my words can help you…… I will be more than happy to do so . I had some uncertainties…… but I am so glad I came to this place . The words of the Water God are just as he said . ‘Mix it up, but it’s muddy, the source is the same . ”

A church of the water god Levi will be built?

The state religion of the Kingdom of Dinrat, Kudor, is kind to pagans, except for some…… I don’t think it’s a problem because I’m not interested in it……

“There was a bit of concern, but that has been taken care of as well……”

“Concern? Did something happen?”

“Oh, nono, it’s nothing . ”

Ringus quickly smiled, then turned himself towards me .

Our eyes met .

At that moment, Ringus stopped moving and his expression froze .

“W-why…what is, what is going on? You were supposed to take part on that……”

Ringus kneels in place and holds his mouth in his hand .

“Ringus-san? Ringus-san, are you okay? Hey, somebody get me some water! Ringus-san looks so pale!”

The man panicked and gave orders to the others who were working .

I wondered if he saw something strange .

I turned around to check behind me, but there was nothing of interest .

“Abel, is something wrong?”

“Well, no…… Right now I just want to lie down and sleep somewhere out of the sun . ”

I turned my body around and tried to move my stopped feet forward again .

“Damn!”

I heard Ringus barking and the sound of dull blows, and I couldn’t help but turn around again .

Ringus had clenched his fists and was punching the walls of the church under construction .

Was this a dream of his since he was a child?

“Ringus-san? Ringus-san!”

“What, what the hell happened to Ringus-san?”

Construction work had come to a complete halt and there was a huge commotion .

Immediately, Ringus seemed to have returned to his composure, and while he was breathing hard, he bowed his head to those around him, “I’m sorry for losing myself about what I did……”

“What, a fight?”

“…… Didn’t that man just look at Abel?”

I check behind me again, but there’s nothing there .

Looking back, I can’t help but feel like he was looking at Mea and not me .

I just didn’t have the energy to think about anything else, so I decided to head straight for the lord’s mansion .
