Chapter 304 Strongest Sage, Finds Out the Existence of Next Enemy
" . . . I read some ancient documents . . . As for linguistics stuff, I'll write a textbook on it when I have some time . "
I glossed over the source of my information with that . . . . Rather, we're not getting anywhere at this rate .
The results of my translation showed that the situation was more dire than expected . I've got to change the topic .
"Enough about translation method, let's get to the content . . . We've got some bad news written here . "
I point at the translated documents . There are some untranslated part . . . but it should be readable still .
" . . . Return of 『Gemuswaunwa』 . . . ?"
Alma tilted her head in puzzlement when she read what I wrote . That's what written in the document indeed .
This 『Gemuswaunwa』 is a word that wasn't present in the Ancient Sand Graph language . Some words closely resemble it . . . But since this word appears often in these documents, it's most likely not a typo .
"So it seems that the demons who possessed these documents were trying to plot a return of this 『Gemuswaunwa』 . . . "
"But what is this 『Gemuswaunwa』 anyway?"
Ruli and Iris read the documents and threw a question . This word did not exist in the [Ancient Sound Graph] . . . But judging from its emergent pattern, it's probably a proper noun .
Which means . . . I could hazard a guess . These documents detailed about how one of the returned [Gemuswaunwa] was killed by an enemy at the capital .
A being important to demons that got killed at the capital--it can only be demon Zaridias . Zaridias boasted an overwhelming power far exceeding demons existing in this era, the one demon who almost managed to kill me . It's not an exaggeration to say that the battle against it was the hardest I had experienced after reincarnating yet .
That Zaridias said this in its last breath .
--"I admit my defeat . However, I am not the only 『Chaotic Demons』 left in this world . . . Now then, I wonder if you're capable of eradicating every last one of them?"
If it said the truth then . . . [Gemuswaunwa] must mean-- .
"Chaotic Demons . " <TLN: If you're reading this novel at any other site than Sousetsuka . com you might be reading an unedited, uncorrected version of the novel . > "C-Chaotic Demons . . . ?"
"What are those?"
Iris and Alma sounded confused when they heard me . Only Ruli was different .
"That's . . . The one mentioned by Zaridias!?"
Looks like she remembers what was said at the time . Remembering a word she picked up from afar . . . She's got good memory .
"Yes it was mentioned by Zaridias . . . As Zaridias had been sealed right before it came to the capital . . . I believe these demons must be attempting to awaken demons sealed somewhere . "
"A-awaken . . . "
"Demons like Zaridias getting awakened, isn't that like really really bad!?"
"Yeah . This is bad . . . Our victory is not guaranteed against Zaridias-class enemies . "
The [Eyes of Heavens] I cast did not have enough power to get through the seal and defeat those demons . I just didn't have enough time to construct a magic large scale enough to achieve that . Defeating around 1200 lesser demons scattered all over the world was the most I could afford at the time .
In other word . . . These Chaotic Demons are still sealed somewhere . And worst of all . . .
"They're probably done with the preparations to awaken one already . "
I picked up a piece of translated documents and rewrite [Gemuswaunwa] into [Chaotic Demons] And . . . Here's the result .
―――――――――――――――――――― Process to awaken [Chaotic Demon] is complete . [Chaotic Demon] will return in three years . Our victory will be set in stone if we match it with the return of another [Chaotic Demon] within the same period of time . ――――――――――――――――――――
"P-process to awaken, complete . . . "
"But, there's still three years before it's awakened right!? If we come up with a way to counteract it in the meantime . . . "
Alma pointed out the [in three years] part . But unfortunately . . .
"This document should be written about three years ago . "
"Three years ago . . . How'd you know that?"
"Take a look at the [Another [Chaotic Demon] within the same period] part . . . Judging from the situation, this must be about Zaridias . "
If there was another [Chaotic Demon] that had been awakened ahead of them already, information regarding it would have been detailed in these documents . But the only [Chaotic Demons] referred in these documents are [Completed awakening process of a Chaotic Demon] and [Chaotic Demon that was defeated in the capital] . And . . .
"This makes it conclusive . "
―――――――――――――――――――― The [Chaotic Demon] who returned first was defeated . This is totally outside of calculations . Even 『Mathias the Unknown』 should have been incapable of defeating a 『Chaotic Demon』 and yet .
Cause of defeat remains a mystery as all demons who were present have been annihilated . We can only hope that the other [Chaotic Demon] awakening soon will destroy the loathsome Eis Kingdom .
It is said that the next [Chaotic Demon] is more powerful than the one defeated . Let's hope that information is accurate . Our victory draws near . ――――――――――――――――――――
