403 The fate of the Duchy of Brange
Is Rumina-san who joined me my new magic? He seemed surprised by this, but he didn't pursue anything.
"Thanks to Luciel-kun, I feel like I have hope. If I hurry, I might be able to save a life."
"Lives that can be saved... That's right. There are still threats from demons and monsters outside of the capital, so let's hurry to save those who are suffering from injuries."
Maybe he was trying to erase my guilt for destroying part of the town. His kindness strengthened his awareness of helping people.
“Is it possible to teleport to a town or village in the Duchy of Brange?”
If I remember correctly, the territory of the Principality of Brange on the map must have been about half that of Yenis.
Originally, I wanted to hand out barrier magic tools like in each country, and I wanted to go to the location so that I could teleport immediately.
For that reason, I thought it would be difficult to teleport directly, but thanks to Lord Rainstar, I was able to teleport as long as I was within the enemy search range.
However, it would be scary if there were obstacles at the teleport destination, so it would be better to teleport into the air.
I explained this to Rumina-san.
"Don't let Luciel do something reckless again..."
"I'm glad that Rumina-san relies on me, though."
"alreadyridiculeTeasingPlease don't do it. But it's good to see that my energy has returned a little."
I wanted her to have a smiling or happy face rather than an apologetic face.
"Thanks to Rumina-san."
"Really... By the way, how long will the sky remain glowing white?"
“Really, how long will it take? Until the dark red sky returns to normal.”
I didn't have an answer to Rumina-san's question.
"I hope things get back to normal. It's better than the dark red sky, but unlike the white sky with lots of clouds, it doesn't feel calm."
Maybe it's because I've experienced the white world led by Lord Leinster, but I didn't really mind it that much, but normally it might feel very strange.
“I’m sure it will settle down by the time we finish visiting Blanche.”
"I hope so... Luciel-kun, let's go."
"yes"
Then, we teleported to the closest place within the enemy search range where people were gathered.
Looking down from above, it looked like a small town with only a simple barrier.
However, it was still a war zone, and there were many buildings that had collapsed into piles of rubble and people who were injured.
Activate Area Extra Heal, and even an injured person on the verge of death will be able to hold out somehow.
Next, in order to ensure safety, the entire town was covered with a sanctuary barrier, and I felt a tremendous sense of discomfort.
"It's strange. I can't find any demons or demons."
I was taken aback by Rumina-san's words, and when I searched for demons and monsters, I found that there were quite a few demons and monsters.
However, it seems that the demons and monsters that were attacking the town have evacuated to a place where there are no people.
“There are demons and demons, but they are moving away from the town.”
“Maybe that sky has something to do with it?”
"What do you think? If you just prioritize human life, I think you're lucky."
"Certainly, right now, rather than demons and monsters, let's prioritize the recovery of the injured and providing people with safety and peace of mind through the barrier."
"yes"
As we were talking about this, people looked up at us from below and cheered.
I looked at Rumina-san, waved lightly, and then teleported to a place where new people gathered.
After that, he continued to travel around the Principality of Brange, activating Area Extra Heal and Sanctuary Barrier.
There were demons and monsters still fighting inside, but when I activated the purification wave, they turned into pale blue flames and disappeared without leaving any magic stones behind.
Among them, what was particularly impressive was the territory of the Count Francisque family, where Rumina was born, and the territory of the Count Meinrich family, to which her older sister married.
It's not because it's related to Rumina-san, it's because I feel like it's worse than other areas.
It was probably not the will of an evil god, but because Lord Kamiya, who was in a political dispute with both families, wielded the power he had acquired.
It seems that the territory has been devastated, and many of its citizens have been injured and some have died. Even so, they were able to keep the damage to a minimum because they liberated their mansion, evacuated, and fought as one.
When I told Rumina-san that I should greet my parents and older sister, she scolded me for saying it was too early.
I was convinced that I should prioritize ensuring the safety of each area rather than greeting people, and from there I moved to places where people were gathering.
After we had covered the entire area, the sky suddenly became dark.
It seems that the holy dragon has finished his role.
By the way, is it already night? That was the feeling. However, when I thought about it carefully, I realized that I had been fighting all day long, so it seemed like it had been quite a long day.
``I was a little scared because darkness came all at once, but with a starry sky this beautiful, there's no need to be scared.''
"Yes. I'm glad it was a beautiful night so people didn't have to worry."
“You look like Luciel.”
After that, Rumina and I were looking at the starry sky for a while,XuSlowlyRumina opened her mouth.
“Is it true that Luciel-kun is a reincarnated person?”
I decided to answer Rumina-san's question openly.
"Yes. I was planning to live a peaceful life without being known as a reincarnated person."
"You can tell by looking at Luciel-kun's words and actions. Even so, the truth behind that ignorance..."
"I'm sorry. I was reincarnated that day, and I was just a suspicious person."
I remembered the past and smiled bitterly.
"So how old were you?"
“I was reincarnated when I was around 30 and have lived in this world for eight years, so my mental age should be around 40. However, I am influenced by my physical age, so I might be a little younger.”
"I see...Yeah, I see."
I could tell from the smile on Rumina's face that she was happy, but I didn't understand why she was so happy.
However, Rumina-san's questions ended there.
“From now on, the Duchy of Brange will not only need to rebuild its own country, but will also need to make reparations to other countries.”
“I understand reconstruction, but is it compensation?”
"Ah. I won't be able to escape responsibility for endangering the world."
I certainly understand what Rumina-san is trying to say, but I'm not declaring war.
It is definitely a big problem that some powerful people have gone berserk and soldiers who have been turned into demons have been released to various countries.
However, thanks to everyone's efforts, there was no noticeable damage to any of the countries, and in the end, it will be concluded that it was a natural disaster caused by a supernatural evil god.
"I'm sure we'll be questioned by important people from each country, but the principality's compensation will likely be minor. Personally, I'm more worried about a civil war due to the disappearance of so many of the country's top leaders."
"Civil war... Normally, I wouldn't accept interference from another country, but..."
Rumina-san was deep in thought when she saw my face.
Principality for nowTightnesspullI was able to escape from the situation. After reporting to the Pope, I think it would be better to meet up with everyone, check the situation in each place, and discuss the future together with everyone again.
All I need to do is transport or purify the demons to the Dark Continent, and then set up a place for important people to discuss.
Once everything is done, it might be fun to travel around the country to eat delicious food. I want to go on an adventure to find out more about this world.
"Rumina-san, let's return to the Holy City and report to the Pope."
"ah"
Rumina-san was thinking the whole time without breaking her serious expression.
Seeing the situation, I teleported to St. Schrule's Church with Rumina-san so as not to disturb them.
Thank you for reading.
