It's Sudden, but I Came to Another World! But I Hope to Live Safely Chapter 171

Published at 26th of April 2023 05:37:51 AM

Well, Gahne was a hell of a place. Yeah.

The King of Garne and the Golden Demon King were going to attend the meeting, so I went to Garne, but there was nothing to do.

I thought I'd clean up the house, but the sight of all those huge knights broke my heart. That's what I call a bad upbringing.

In the end, I was the only one out of the loop, so I went sightseeing in Garne. Well, it was a good learning experience for my brother Jestaff's nation-building in the distant future.

"You're sulking in plain sight, Hark-dog.

The brothers are going back to Taze to prepare for war. The main reason is the magical research they're doing at Taze Castle. I didn't get a chance to see it myself for some reason. So I'm accompanying her.

The lady was there on the way, but she was called away by a very powerful knight named Ragdoll. I'm sure she'll be fine since she's in the castle. If you need anything, just holler and we'll be there in a few seconds. Maybe they really will come in a few seconds.

You're right, brother, you've got a good sense of the frustration lurking in my heart.

"There's no such thing as hiding when you're blotting it out. I can't work with you with the money at my side.

That's the point. I ran into him three times while I was in Ghana. Of course I fainted, yes.

In fact, they were so relentless that I thought they were coming to see me, not my brothers. In fact, he came to see my brother, and if I was nearby, he would try to show his face to me. That demon lord is really evil.

"Does this Demon Lord really enjoy it when people faint?

I'd like to deny it, but it's true that both Gold and Purple are enjoying your reactions. I'd like to deny it, but it's true that Gold and Purple enjoy your reactions, and Ao will probably start enjoying it too.

Isn't that all of them? It is better that the blue demon king is not going to stay with his brothers yet, but the other two are rather trying to stay with them.

No, the Purple Demon King is still good. The demon Duvvleoris, his aide, covers him properly. No, that's not good. You're too naive to be attracted to her just because she's nice to you.

He's not here today, is he?

By now, Ao is on his way back to Taze, and Purple is at Mixt's and Tollid's blacksmith shop. Gold is doing domestic work at the villa.

Did you come here after all? I want to tell the Minister.

I already told him. Mr. Ludfen told me to bring it to you in wrappers before the war starts.

You work fast. --This is the room, isn't it?

Yes.

The brothers knocked, and the answer was "Come in. When they opened the door and went in, there were two women. They were working on something that they didn't understand.

A woman in a maid's uniform and a very small child. If they didn't faint just by looking at her, then the Blue Demon King is not here.

Oh, it's you! And who's that nasty looking guy over there?

"Who's the one who looks bad? --No, no, no. I'm Hark-dog.

I feel like I'm more intimidating when I wear these sunglasses. This is one of the drawbacks of a blind man's appearance.

Anyway, this little guy is a disciple of the great sage Balastos. He has an unbelievable amount of magic power and stability for someone his age. He's literally a genius by nature.

"Yes, I've heard of you. You're your brother's helper, right?

Yeah. We're the same in that sense.

This maid is ...... normal, for better or worse. I don't feel any particular power that stands out. I'm not sure what to make of it.

I'm sure you'll agree.

"Sama" is a weird relationship.

Nora?

Luko-sama is the girl the king of this country is after.

...... Really?

Norchan?

What? Seriously? The king of this country is the King Marito, right? It's not a bad idea for a woman's taste, but a maid is a ....... I'm not sure what to do. I don't think so. I'm not sure if it's a good idea, but it's a good idea. And in my case, my status doesn't matter.

I see. That's why you're in charge of this place.

No, you're not! Marith-sama has been good to me, but that's not...

You're not? You scared me.

Hark-dog, just so you know, aside from the fact that Marito is after Luko-sama, there's a reason why Marito put you in charge of this magical research.

"Brother?

Yeah, I'd like to know about that. I couldn't get any particulars from the detection magic.

"I stood in front of the Demon Lord who tried to kill Nora there single-handedly and drove him away. By the way, he's stronger than any Demon Lord in existence.

...... Really?

I fainted at the mere sight of the Demon Lord. You're better than me at that point. I'm sure he's the one you're talking about.

It's not like I chased him away! It's just that he gave up on his own. ......

No, no, no, I think it's great that you made him give up.

That's right. Luko-sama is amazing. Bow down to him.

Oh, yeah. Hhha.

You really don't have to grovel!

Well, I was just groveling, but it's true that I actually thought he was awesome.

I'm pretty sure he's weaker than me. I think he's stronger than my brothers. He's got no nerve standing in front of a demon lord.

I'd do the same thing if my brother was in danger. Would I be able to move my legs or make a sound? No, will I be conscious enough to kick instinctively?

It's good to have courage even if you don't have talent or power, and if you saved someone with it, that's a feat I can genuinely respect.

"Hey, how did the ring go?

"It was generally well received. If that's true, it would be better if you could give more complicated commands. In the end, it depends on the motivation of the person who controls it. The simpler the better for the masses.

It's also possible to store only the magic power of the Demon Lord's daughters and let the equipper's will interfere with the magic power. However, it is quite difficult to operate. I think the only one who can use it properly is Exodus.

It's not the type to fight with demons. It's a good idea to have a good idea of what you're going to be doing and how you're going to do it.

I'm not sure what you're talking about. I'm sure you'll be happy to hear that. I'm not sure if you've seen this before, but I'm sure you've seen it before.

Nora can do it no problem.

You can't do that, Nora!

I don't think it's a good idea to go into battle, but if the TARDIS is ever attacked, it might be a good idea to use it. How are the other items you ordered?

"I think they're both exactly what I ordered. Let me check.

The brothers go to the back and play with something that looks like a tool. I'm very interested in ...... this thing, isn't it? I'm sure you've heard of it. I'm not going to let the dark side of this country try to kill me if I find out about it.

This is not a problem. It's just that we won't be using it in this fight, so we'll keep it in storage. And this one--

Yeah. You're curious! Enough! Look at that!

No one's showing any sign of stopping. Nora and Luko-san are no different. right? I'm chaperoning my brother!

...... What the hell is that?

I saw what he was playing with. I don't know what the hell it was. It's not that I'm uneducated. It's just that I'm not.

It's about as big as you can hold in your hand, and it's shaped like a bent sword handle.

"It's faster to use it than to explain the name. Hark-dog, try it.

"What? How?

The brothers hand me the mysterious tool. It weighs about as much as a lump of iron. Well, it doesn't look like a weapon.

"Point it at the hole in the wall there, and with a little magic, put your finger on the trigger, and pull it forward.

"Like this? --Oh!

At the same time as a small explosion, something flew out of the tool. It hits the wall and falls to the ground, emitting red smoke. Then more smoke comes out. In no time at all, the room is filled with smoke.

"Whoa, whoa, whoa. We need to ventilate. Luko, can you open the window?

"Open it before you shoot! No, but if we open the window, the knights outside will be worried and come running!

No problem. It will purify the air.

Nora used what looked like a purification spell to gradually clear the smoke from the room. There's no waste in this little spell. It's not as fast as Lakra's magic building speed, but it's still amazingly fast.

"Thanks, Nora. It's a tool that shoots out wolfsbane. It can change color depending on the type of projectile it's firing, and its purpose is to communicate the status of each battle from a distance.

"Oh, wolfsbane. It's hard to judge just by the smoke it makes.

There are people in the back with Yugra cult communication crystals, but I thought it would be better if the people on the front lines could communicate information quickly.

If you're fighting on the front lines, it's not easy to send up a signal. It's true that with this tool, the current situation on the front line can be quickly communicated to the rear.

I'm sure you'll be able to figure out how to use it. It's not that hard to figure out.

You've come up with something useful. Is this a tool from your brother's world?

The days of using wolfsbane are long gone. But it's hard to reproduce the technology for communication.

You're not an engineer, are you? By the way, if there were tools for communication in your brother's world, what would they be like?

Well... I can talk about it right here, in the face of Jestiff in the Quama Realm.

...... Sorry. Was that a riddle?

No, no, no.

I have no idea how you can do that. That's a hell of a place, Chikyu. But if I had one, I could always check on my brother. That's convenient.

What about weapons in the brothers' world? If there's going to be a war, if we can recreate that, we'll be strong, right?

"That thing you're holding right now, it's normally shaped like a weapon that shoots out small pieces of iron. It has the advantage of being able to fly faster than a bow and arrow. But with the iron making technology of this world, the durability is unstable. And there's no kayak.

Kayak?

There's no magic in this world. Instead, we fill it with explosive powder and make it explode to send bullets flying. However, in order to hit a target at a distance, the accuracy of the tool itself and the training of the person handling it are necessary. It's impossible for an amateur to reproduce it with only his knowledge and skills.

This tool, however, can easily create a wolfsbane. The fact that it can attack faster than an arrow with such ease is a little creepy. With such a tool, even a kid walking on the street can easily kill someone.

Well, I can knock down arrows, too.

I guess. Garne could be hired, but it's not too early to start thinking about it.

I'm more impressed with Nora's current purification spell. She is indeed the apprentice of the Great Sage. You have a bright future ahead of you, don't you?

Nothing comes out of her even if you flatter her.

You got magic. And I think you're going to be beautiful.

I'm sorry, but Herc is a little out of my league.

"...... Guffaw.

I fell to my knees in grief. I never thought I'd see the day when I'd be rejected by such a child. ....... I've never been successful in picking up a girl in the first place.

What does Nora like? Does she like ecdysiac?

I'm not sure if you've seen this before, but I'm sure you have. He's good-looking and austere.

Well, he's here with Purple, isn't he?

Isn't that the devil?

This is the time when the Demon Lord wants a human girl. It's no wonder he's prejudiced.

That may be true, but ......

This is a great way to make sure you are getting the most out of your time with your family and friends. I'm sure you'll be able to find something that works for you. ....... I'm not sure what to make of this, but I think it's a good idea.

I'm not sure what to make of it, but I think it's a good idea. That's how I feel about it.

"Yeah, that makes sense.

That makes sense. - That makes sense.

What I fell in love with was your personality. It doesn't matter if you're subhuman or human. It doesn't matter if you're a demon lord or a demon.

You're right. He carried me on the couch when I fainted and covered me with a blanket. When I think about it, that's one of the five kindest people I've ever met in my life. I mean, I've had a pretty bad life, haven't I?

I'm sorry, Nora. You're right. What's important is what you accept from them. If you don't think about the fact that he's a demon, he's definitely a good judge of character.

But he doesn't show me his demon form at all. He's a cheapskate.

I'm pretty sure I've heard about the relationship between Exoik and Lakra before. I'm sure you'll be able to find something that will help you out.

If you follow that, Duvraeori's demon form is ...... just a demon, right?

Do you want to see it?

I can't get enough of it.

Maybe if the brothers asked the Purple Demon Lord for help, it would be easier.

That's not good enough. It's no good if Nora can't ask for help in person.

...... This guy is something. He's probably more advanced in love than I am. I must not be in a position to understand him yet. I'll just support him gently.

Well, good luck with that!

Hang in there, Hark. You've got a long way to go.

Yeah. I know. I'm gonna cry.

It's okay, I have a goal right now to be your right hand man. I'm sure if you can grow that much a good woman will come to you even if you leave her alone. That's what I'll think.

Wait for it, my future girl! I'll be a good man in a few years! Maybe!

Not only Marito, but Kim might like it too. I'll show you later.

To do that, I'll have to cure myself of fainting at the sight of the Demon Lord. ...... Okay! The next time, I'm going to try to keep my spirits up so I don't lose my mind!

You're suddenly very motivated.

Everything is a growth spurt for me. My body may be nearing its limit, but my mind has plenty of room to grow!

That's right. I don't want to be the strongest. I'm not looking for strength, I'm looking for toughness. There's not much you can learn from your brothers when it comes to strength.

I'm sure they'll show even more strength once this war starts. Watch and steal. That's my goal for now.

What can I say? ...... You're a spirited man.

I've got a lot to learn.

All right, brother! It's a good thing I'm in magic research too! I don't think I'll be able to do much more than miscellaneous tasks, to be honest! I'm not sure what to do.

Just because you have a goal in mind doesn't mean you should neglect the rest. It's not like you're going to be doing magic research in the future. But there must be something you can learn from those who are studying magic.

Then we should take every opportunity to learn. To be involved in magical research with the apprentice of the Great Sage is an amazing thing when you think about it!

"Brother, you say that, but ......

I don't care. I'm sure it's more useful for chores than someone who can't use magic.

Nora doesn't mind. Nora is fine, too. She'll be a good test subject.

Can we please not do that? No, you can do it, but only if it doesn't interfere with the rest of your life!

I'm sure you'll be pleased to know that I'm not the only one who's had to deal with this. I'm not sure what to do. I'm sure she's done with her business and is back.

By the way, she can use magic quite well too, right? I think it would be good to learn to use magic in battle. I'll have to ask her how she trained.

"Here you go.

"Yes, sir! I'll open it! Miss, you're in the right place.

I open the door. And there are three...

"Oh? I believe it was the other day?

"Oh, it's Hark-dog. I see you're here, too.

Who's that? You look pale, but you're all right.

Squeak.

I'll do my best, brother. I don't know if it'll pay off. But I'll start tomorrow.
