Rose lowered her head very deeply in front of Diablo.
「I am terribly, terribly sorry. Give this Rose any punishment you like. To be sleeping while Master was fighting……」
「It is fine, rest is necessary. What about Sasala?」
「No matter what we did, she would not wake up.」
──Seriously!?
A delicate atmosphere spread amongst everyone there.
Even though it is a critical situation that concerns the existence of the Races, the night is bedtime!?
Suddenly, Diablo had a thought──Come to think of it, the High Chief Priest who was chosen by God, Lumachina, was burdened with the peculiar handicap of having “Healing Miracles not working on herself”.
「Could it possibly be that……Well, do not force her. A sword is something that shines when it is polished. If it is needed for her, then let her sleep.」
「Understood.」
On the other hand, Edelgart was gazing at the fake Demon King castle with a complicated-looking expression.
「…………」
「What is wrong -noda?」
The young Demonic Being girl groaned at Krum’s question.
「Many～, companions……have……vanished.」
「Ahh, that’s right. You were a Demonic Being of the Demon King castle.」
「Yes……but……ehー……uhー……」
Edelgart searched for words. She was somewhat poor at having conversations.
No one rushed her.
Finally, one word.
「Regret?」
「Umu……That is true.」
Hearing Edelgart’s mutter, Krum closed her eyes, and the two of them said nothing for a moment.
After that, *Pan!*, Krum clapped her hands.
「Now then! Diablo, you have had enough of the tedious talk, right? You should choose! What will you do -noda!?」
Diablo surveyed everyone present.
Shera, Krum, Edelgart, Rose, Sylvie, Lamnites……
And then, he looked at the Demon King castle.
──Rem.
「Naturally, I will take back my property! Modinalaam also desires a conclusion to all of this after all.」
Krum grinned.
「Now that is Maou’s master -nanoda. That thing will not stop anyhow unless you destroy the core. Go get him -nanoda!」
Going “huh”, Shera tilted her head.
「Krum-chan, are you not going? Aren’t we going to go and rescue Rem with everyone here?」
「I will go alone.」
He had a good understanding of Modinalaam’s strength.
Most likely, the effect of 《Physical Restrictor》 will have disappeared inside the castle. It was because the light of 《Customize Bomb》 doesn’t reach inside of it.
If it were to turn into a fight similar to before, he wouldn’t have the leeway to protect those around him.
Going “Now that you mention it”, Diablo gave instructions.
「Right now, in this area, physical attacks have lost their meaning. For people that use swords or spears, it would be best if you enchant them so that they turn into magic attacks.」
Actually, if Modinalaam had quickly realized this fact, another countermeasure would have been needed.
Since he was thoughtlessly using his own strength, schemes probably weren’t working in his head.
Sylvie made a difficult face.
「That’s unreasonable, Diablo-san! A majority of both the soldiers and Adventurers use physical attacks. And then, the enchantment to turn them into magical attacks is high grade magic……I am just barely able to enchant several people, you know!?」
「Mu……」
This was beyond his expectations.
Now that she mentioned it, enchantments of this other world weren’t really investigated.
Since Diablo himself would have enchantments reflected with the 《Demon King’s Ring》, he was excessively disinterested in it.
Would it be difficult for them to protect the town from those black snakes after having a majority of their fighting power made powerless?
From behind, a voice was raised.
「That enchantment, I shall take responsibility for it.」
When he turned around, a group of Local Knights and Magicians approached. *Za* Then the enclosure split to the left and right.
A beautiful woman was expressing a smile.
She held a long staff.
「Diablo-san, it has been a while, hasn’t it.」
「Celes!?」
Maybe because he called her with her nickname, the escort Magicians knitted their brows.
Next to her, Galford was also there.
「I have received the situation report. The Magician’s Guild has decided to completely cooperate. Leave this place to us……The Races are still in an existential crisis. If that imitation Demon King castle is not stopped, then we will have no chance at victory.」
「Galford, you came out looking self-important but……You will prove useful, right?」
「Would you like to test me?」
His bloodlust had not weakened.
Even his arm that he should have lost had returned to how it was before.
To think that he had gone from having that many injuries and that much exhaustion to making his return without even half a day passing! Is this what it means to be an experienced person of the great war?
Celes came in between them.
「Diablo-san.」
「Mu?」
「I, will do my best.」
「Ahー, umu, right……Well, be sure to assist the small timers.」
Her slow tone softened the edgy atmosphere. With this situation, it was for better or worse.
Celes spoke.
「I beg of you, Diablo-san……Somehow, please save Rem-san.」
「Are you serious? Didn’t Rem try to kill you?」
「Rem-san, would not do such a thing. It was an action of that Great Demon King. That girl, she has a strong sense of responsibility, is very persevering……and lonely. I, always think to myself, if only Rem-san were free in the truest meaning of the word.」
Her words, they sounded like she were praying to God despite being a Magician.
That didn’t even need to be said.
Diablo took out his Magic Staff.
「Just leave everything to me!」
