Mushoku no Eiyuu ~Betsu ni Skill Nanka Iranakattan daga~

The escaped werewolf was annihilated by the blue magic Ark unleashed.

''I thought you must have trained quite a bit since it was you... but isn't that too much as expected?''

Really?

It's clear from the fight we're having now that we're not quite ready to pack it in yet.

I almost let him get away with it.

But Ark followed up well, so it's probably a fair point.

Leila, who is proactive in everything, is the type that rushes forward and makes many mistakes, while Ark is passive but calm and collected, and his judgment of the situation is accurate.

Together, they could be considered a good combination.

Layla and Ark are coming back.

Leila looks a little frustrated.

And then the people who were running away earlier came in.

''Ta, we were saved.

''I never thought I'd be able to take down that many werewolves...''

'It looked to me like a kid knocked it over... no, it can't be that way, can it?

But what is this ship...?

We heard that they had been attacked by a pack of werewolves during their wagon ride.

I heard that they escaped while their guards were fighting for them, but just as they were about to catch up with us, we passed by.

When we returned to that carriage, we found several people lying wounded amidst several dead bodies of werewolves lying around.

''Ugh...''

Hey, some of them are still alive!

But with this wound...

Oh, God, that hurts!

Leila, who was interested in everything, moved closer and scowled.

'Oh, come on, little girl, you shouldn't be looking at that.

We'll get you well soon!

What?

Leila used her recovery magic.

I taught her to be able to heal her wounds on her own, even if she lost her healing blessing.

This might be the first time I've actually used it against someone.

''Hey, I'm healed...?''

Don't tell me you can do white magic, little girl...?

But you're not old enough to get the blessing yet...?

Apparently it worked.

Then she would heal the other survivors, but

Ugh, he's not waking up. I fixed him up.

'It's not your fault, little girl. If she's dead, you can't bring her back to life.

No, not really.

Dad!

I crouch down beside a man who's already out of it.

'You haven't been dead long. I can bring you back to life.

Bringing him back from the dead is not possible.

Well, look.

A bright light flashed.

And when it subsided, my heart, which should have stopped, began to beat.

''Oh, what the hell am I...?''

He wakes up and looks around curiously.

Apparently, he has succeeded.

'Nah ... stupid ...'

You don't think he's really come back to life?

If I had to name it, I would say it's a resurrection spell.

It is a magic that brings back the soul that has once left the body and fuses it with the body again.

It's not just the theory of black magic that will turn you into an undead person no matter how hard you try, but by applying the theory of white magic to it, we've made it possible to completely revive you.

However, if he was separated from his body for too long, his soul would mutate, and even if he was revived, his personality would go awry.

This time it worked because it hadn't been long since he died.

'Dad, that's awesome!'

Leila hugs me tightly.

'Good, good, Leila's always so cute,'

Heh.

Then I managed to bring them all back to life.

However, as for the horse that was bitten to death by a werewolf, I had no choice but to give up.

Unlike humans, animal souls mutate quickly, so even if I brought them back to life, they wouldn't be able to pull the carriage back to normal.

''By the way, where was this group headed?''

The City of Swords. To take refuge there...

The City of Swords?

Apparently the same destination as us.

But what do you mean by "evacuate"?

Didn't you know that?　Rumor has it that the Demon King is back...

Demon King?

''Ha, yes. I heard that several countries and cities have already fallen into the hands of the Demon King in the west, and the demons have become violent in this area recently as well. So many people are trying to emigrate, thinking it will be safer if they go to the Sword City...

That's the first I've heard of it.

It's a frontier town, so it must be slow to get the word out.

Anyway, it's the Demon King.

If it's true that he's resurrected, it's a big deal.

It was a dark time when the human world was threatened by the Demon King, who was said to have been summoned to this world by an evil god, and the demon tribes under his command.

Until the demon king was defeated by seven heroes chosen by the goddess, many countries and cities were destroyed and many humans were killed.

However, there are various theories.

This is because the story is hundreds of years old and the lore differs in many ways.

I'm sure you'll be just fine if you say your destination is the city of swords. "Anyway, if your destination is the City of Swords, that's just fine," he said, "why don't we take our ship and pull it out?

'What?　How is that possible?

Yeah.

Four of them....

No problem.

The four carriages that had lost their horses were linked together in a single vertical line.

Then I hooked up the harnesses to the boats.

'Okay, we're all aboard, right?　Then we're off.

It was quite heavy because it was pulling a carriage with nearly thirty people in all, but it still accelerated slowly.

''Ho, it's really moving!

What's on that ship?

You don't think it's a mythical, magical ship!

No, I built the boat.

Your normal is not normal.

Laina looked dumbfounded.
