It's Sudden, but I Came to Another World! But I Hope to Live Safely Chapter 272

As soon as he regains consciousness, he vomits. The fear of physical death has been numbed by the many times I've been killed and committed suicide. But I will never get used to this feeling of a crack in my soul.

"Oh ...... is ...... ah ......

I let out an inaudible scream and remember how to breathe. As you claw your way through your body, you become aware that you are now in a physical state. I am here, I am here, I am here. Repeat this over and over to calm your mind.

"phew...... phew...... phew......

My thoughts return. I slowly recall what has happened so far and summarize what I need to do.

My current body is the emergency one I had hidden near the mausoleum. It had been prepared to absorb my soul, which was just drifting away, not moving by magic.

I would have preferred my usual body, but it has already been poisoned with paralysis, making it impossible for me to act. It is a body that I am aware of as my own, but I have no choice but to discard it.

It was fine until he took Lakra's body, but he didn't calculate that Lakra himself had already poisoned his own body with paralysis. By the time she realized it, she was unable to free her body or control the magic in her body.

So, just before she lost consciousness, she forcibly ripped her soul out of Lakra's body. Paralyzing poison cannot penetrate the soul, and that's why he was able to do such a rough job. ...... But the cost was great.

My body is supposed to be normal, but I can't feel anything on my skin. The sense of touch is completely dead. After taste and smell, I have now lost my sense of touch. Your sense of sight has also become abnormal.

"...... is a terrible world.

There are cracks in the world. A world full of cracks, what an unrealistic sight. Of course, I understand that there are no cracks in the world and that my spirit is not perceiving the world correctly. But even if that's the case, it's funny and makes me want to laugh that the world feels so distorted because my soul is cracked.

There will be no next time, and if I do this again, my soul will completely disintegrate before it reaches the next body. Even if I could switch, my ego would be gone for sure.

I have to go.

This body also had a magic stone so that it could receive a signal from Nektokhar. The signal has already been sent. Nektohar had perfected the resurrection spell. And if the signal has been sent, it means that the magic stone that recorded how to construct the resurrection magic has already been sent out.

There it is: ......

In a hidden room in the middle level, there was a dead rat lying there. Nektokhar must have manipulated it and had it devour itself right here. On the rat's back was the magic stone I was looking for.

I pick up the magic stone, read the information written on it, and imprint it into my soul as my knowledge. No doubt, this is a perfected method of constructing resurrection magic.

"Finally, finally, I got it: ......!

He repressed his rising joy and applied the construction to his own body. Even if Lakra woke up, it would be difficult for the observant people of Yugra's planet to notice that I was away since I was poisoned with paralysis. However, if I had evacuated Rakura earlier and he was lucky enough to regain consciousness right in front of the man on the ground, then ....... We can't afford to make any mistakes in our haste, but we have to hurry.

Let me give you some advice.

"What?

I don't know how long I've been here, but a man with black hair and dark eyes stood there as if he had been there all along. It's not the same as the people of Yugra's planet, with high magic power and an unfathomable sense of evil. The Colorless Demon Lord, that's who.

I didn't think I could escape from that situation. I was going to just go home, but now I'm going to have to go underground like this.

...... What can I do for you?

I'm warning you. That construction method I got from Nektokhar is the real deal, and it's perfect because I can't work as a deterrent. After all, if you trigger it and die, you will definitely be revived and come back as the Demon Lord.

I don't feel any killing intent or hostility. It seems that this man is incapable of becoming an enemy to others, as Rithial and Nektohar had said. But if he still showed up, it means he doesn't want me to become the Demon Lord.

Because that's what I want. "Because that's what you want, or have you come to tell me something shocking that could stop it?

"No, that's not going to work. I'm not like that guy, and even if I tried to lie to you, you wouldn't be able to get through to me since you've been infiltrated as a priest of the Yugra cult. But that power isn't something that people in this world should have. I'm sure you're not the only one.

You're right. It's a good idea to have a good idea of what you're looking for.

You hit a sore spot. It's a good idea to have a good idea of what you're looking for.

This demon king doesn't seem to be interested in persuading me. So, ...... I see.

"I'll give up being a human. I've already made that decision a long time ago. I'll leave you to it.

Oh, come on, don't be so hard on me.

The people of the planet Yggra are on their way here, aren't they? Can you please stop with the well-meaning advice and the stalling and the cunning?

...... You're a twisted little bastard, if I do say so myself.

I'm not sure what to make of this. But if that's the case, we should assume that Arcreal has been defeated or withdrawn and Nektohar has been defeated.

He cannot be disturbed any longer, and he already knows that he cannot take a hard line. He's just an incompetent, and there's nothing he can do but interfere.

"As a component of the system of reason created by Yugra, you have gained transcendent power, and all you can do is interfere?

"Well, yes. I'm sure you're not the only one who has a problem with this.

You're not a Demon Lord, you're a demon of the Shiro Demon Lord, right? I'm not sure what to say. You're a useless observer. It's really ridiculous.

"Well, well, well.

The servant of the Colorless Demon Lord, or rather the Shiro Demon Lord, can't even properly return hostility to my provocation. I'm not sure what to make of this, but I'm sure it's a good idea.

"Oh, since you're asking, I'll take that name. As a solitary being who is not tainted by anything, I am the one who deserves that name. Yes, let's do it.

I lived as a person, as me, until the end. I lived as a human being until the end. I didn't want to be tainted by anyone's ideas, I just wanted to give up being a human being.

That's why I'll be reborn as a colorless Demon Lord. As a true colorless Demon Lord.

Ilias is carrying me.

In the event you have any questions concerning where and how to use the site, you can call us at the web site. The most likely scenario is that he has prepared a body for the evacuation method of forcibly ripping out his soul, and is using that body to move to a hidden room somewhere in the middle layer.

"Are you okay, compatriot?

"It hurts. But as long as I can complain about the pain, I'm fine. It's not like we're going to be fighting directly, so there's nothing to worry about.

Rahayt will be defeated by Wolfe!

There were four of us heading for the basement. Me, Ilias, Wulfe and Ecdysius. Duvraioli was still available to fight, but we couldn't leave the ground full of injured people.

I'm counting on you. Also, each of you should be aware of the possibility of your bodies being taken over.

Yes, sir!

The specs of the people here are quite high, but only you can make use of them. Whoever is taken over will be able to suppress it quickly. Although it is highly doubtful that Raheit has the strength to do so.

The reason why he didn't use the same method in Kuama when he had the means to forcibly escape from the body tells us that there is a limit to the number of times he can use it. That would be a greater burden on the mind than escaping after being killed.

Raheit must be at his limit. I don't think he's going to choose any other means, but... what is it, Ilias?

"There's a man in there who looks suspicious.

I'm looking at ...... you can't get more suspicious than that. It's a colorless bastard.

You're looking good, despite your severe injuries.

You've failed to persuade Lahite, by the looks of it.

...... Can't we have a little small talk?

The only reason you're showing up here at this time is because of the revival magic.

That's true. I'm not sure what to say, but I'll tell you what I think. I want you to deal with that Rahite guy. I'm not sure what to do, but I'm sure I'll be able to do it.

In the event that you've got a lot of money to spend, you'll be able to take advantage of it.

The fact that I'm here is a metaphor for the answer, "I'm here, and you're right," but I guess that's the limit.

"Do you really hate being disappointed by Shigeya Yukura?

"He won't be disappointed by this. Well, he doesn't want to be relieved that you don't care about him. I'm only half joking.

But you're half serious.

Don't pick it up. Don't pick it up. You can't hide your embarrassment. To be honest, I don't like the idea of some unsavory guy becoming the Demon Lord. It'll be a lifelong relationship, after all.

I think most Demon Lords hate you.

I don't care if they hate me. I don't care if they don't like me. The scarlet beast was funny to watch. The Blue King is ...... well, half expected. The women are a feast for the eyes, especially the Kuro Sister, she's got great proportions. See, they're all fine, right?

I'm not sure what to make of it, but I'm sure it's a good idea.

I'm not going to have Rahite trying to kill me for the rest of my life, even if I don't ask for it, and leaving that guy behind will only lead to regrets.

"You two are kindred spirits. So, good luck with that, okay? If you do well, I'll reward you with a little something.

Ugh, that's disgusting.

...... I'm a human being at heart, you know.

The colorless demon king disappeared, leaving behind a slight melancholy. To be honest, I think he's a fun guy to be friends with. However, I can only feel that way when I have a friendship with him. He is the type of person who is thoroughly disliked by everyone else, or rather, that's what he does.

"What was the man trying to tell us, compatriot?

"There's Lahite ahead. He told me that he already had the resurrection spell and that he was in the process of resurrecting himself.

What? And you wasted my time talking about it?

I'm sure that the time you spent persuading Rahite will be considered hostile to Rahite if you don't hold her back. Still, I think we're the ones who benefit from the conviction.

Raheit will become the Demon Lord. It may be too late to stop him, but there's still something we can do. This is my last trump card, and it will end this completely.
