I was moving through the sky at my maximum speed to reach Ao's predicament in time. However, there was a considerable distance between me and Ao, who remained in the village and guarded the evacuating villagers. I can clearly see that the Ao's personal fighting ability is very good, but even against a normal unique class, it would be a struggle. In the event that you are not able to find the right one, you will be able to get the right one. I'm not sure if I'll be able to keep up with them for much longer.

I'm not sure what to do.

Suddenly, he sensed a huge roar that vibrated the air and the movement of powerful magic power. This is not an enemy. It belonged to a demon under the control of Blue. Even though it was far away on the battlefield, a being visible to the naked eye was appearing. The figure is undoubtedly Daruagestia, but its size is far more massive than when it was captured.

"You didn't mean to tell me that you succeeded in doing what you were talking about back then, did you ......?

Of all the unique classes we captured, the Dal'Agestia was the one with the most fighting ability. Ao was trying to make the Dal'Agestia as powerful as the Duvreoli. However, while Duvraeori had lived for a long time and gained a great deal of magical power himself, Dal'Agestia had not evolved long enough to become a unique class. Dal'Agestia could not sufficiently accept the magic power of Blue. As a result, as a compromise, the remains of skeletons were brought to the place where Dal'Agestia rested, and the magic in the air was enriched to promote its growth. The skeletons would return to dust when they died, and although it would take time and effort to transport them, it would be beneficial to avoid excessive fighting while allowing them to grow. It may take a long time, but we have a long way to go. I thought I would just have to take the long view. But--

"Isn't it possible to pour magic power into it from the outside all at once?

This comment from a compatriot led to a new search. Theoretically, Ao said, it might be possible to gather magic power from the surroundings and grant it to the target in a way similar to the power of annihilation and the application of necromancy. But now the question arose as to how to supply the magic power to the Daluagestir. In order for a demon to grow, it needs to gather the magical power of demons born in the same demon world. I tried using the skeletal remains I had, but the growth of the Daluagestia was not so great. Ao calculated that the amount of magic power needed for Dal'Agestia was more than the majority of the skeletons he currently had. So, after discussing it with Ao and his compatriots, he decided to use all of his skeletons in the battle against the Scarlet Witch King and increase the number of remnants.

The evolution of Dal'Agestia is certain. But if that's the case, the soldiers around Ao will be ......!

The fact that Dal'Agestia has evolved means that Ao is still intact and the skeleton soldiers around him are in a state of destruction. A being like that would probably not be defeated by much, but we still have to hurry. The number of enemy soldiers that should be on the road is much smaller. We may have succeeded in stopping them in the village, but we should assume that they are already engaged with the enemy's main force.

Daruagestia roared and attacked the ground. The aftermath of the attack reached me as I flew through the air. I wondered if a demon of that size would be able to go this far beyond the framework of a unique class. If I could just coordinate with it, I'd be in a good spot.

Ecdysium! You're too late! Come on, this way! This way!

I hear a voice shouting in the distance. No, this is still the maximum speed I can go. ....... Just as I finally reached a position where I could see Ao, and was about to immediately enter the battle. Most of the enemy soldiers around me were either dying or dead. It seems that Dar'agestia's blow was that powerful. This is ...... not even I can win if I'm not good enough. ....... It's a good idea to have a good idea of what you're looking for. In both of her arms was a person, my mother, in her arms.

What is this ...... situation?

What's the situation?" "Natra helped me. She used the same 'blind eye' as Exequip.

What the hell?

Ao told me what had happened so far. I'm not sure what to make of it, but I think it's a good idea. But his condition is strange. I'm not sure what to make of it.

"It looks like he's been infiltrated by the demon's magic. I've sucked up some of it, but if I suck up any more, Natra-san's own magic power might be depleted.

I see. I'm sure you'll be happy to know that I'm not the only one who's had to deal with this.

What are you talking about with your calm analysis? Can't you do something about it?

"Frankly speaking, I can't. To completely control the demon's magic, you'll need the help of the Purple Demon Lord on Garne's side. But with his condition, he definitely won't last.

"Don't say that so easily! She's your mother! Are you saying you're giving up?

I'm not giving up, Ao's treatment is effective enough. With a little more work, we should be able to prolong her life long enough to get her to Garne.

I'm not going to give up.

If it's not enough, we can add more. I've heard that in the world of our people, there is a treatment called blood transfusion, where you can share your lost blood with others. If you give him magic power in the same way, he'll have enough to suck out the demon's magic power.

My people don't have the benefit of recovery magic. That's why I've been explaining various medical knowledge to those around me in case I'm injured. The wisdom of a civilized world that can accomplish things that are still technically impossible in this world, it's thanks to my people that I can think of a way out of this situation.

I'm not sure what to do.

Wait, what are you doing by pouring the Demon Lord's magic into it? It'll be even worse than the demon.

That's dangerous! Then you'll have to do it!

I'm a demon too! Calm down, Ao. The evacuated villagers are just ahead, aren't they?

"Yes, yes.

If so, there should be a holy knight guarding them. If they are holy knights, they will have a certain amount of magic power, and they will be less likely to reject each other since they are both living in the same land of Mejis. I'll take her with me, since I'm fast.

He took his mother from Ao and used telephoto magic to check the direction of the villagers. There are several people who are equipped like holy knights. This number should be enough to treat them.

What should I do?

"If we prioritize healing, we'll delay the evacuation of the villagers. It seems that the game has already been decided here, but make sure you destroy the enemy. There are probably still some enemy troops left in the village. Don't forget to meet up with Lakra, Gillista, and Harkdok. You won't have to worry about them here in Dal'Agestia.

"Rollo-ooh!

You're not as sweet as I was, are you, boy? Well, okay. Let's go, Dal'Agestia!

With a roar, Dal'Agestia made her way towards the village. It moves slowly, but because of its huge size, it is quite fast. I'd better call it in so that it doesn't accidentally step on Harkdok and the others along the way. When I arrived at the place where the villagers were while reporting the situation to Lakra and the others through the chain, villagers and holy knights who knew about the mother I was carrying came running up to me.

"Na, Natra-san! Oh, I'm not going to run into that place alone. ......

"Can you gather the holy knights, please? She's in a dangerous state right now because of the demon magic that's invading her. I need your help to remove it and heal her.

What do you mean, "cure"? ...... Are you going to do this right here?

The skeletal dragon in the distance has already kicked away any enemies that were close by. Unless there's something wrong, the demons won't come this far. Even if they did, it's unlikely that they'd be able to get past the skeleton dragon's onslaught. If that's the case, I'll be able to fight them single-handedly.

The mother's condition is still dangerous, but as long as she can be taken care of right here, there is no problem. I think I can repay the debt for saving Ao.

...... I can't. We can't stop the evacuation.

Why? You have a demon with that much power on your side, what are you worried about?

Why are we stopping the evacuation? Come on! We have to get out of here! We're gonna die!

No! We can't stay near those monsters! Let's get to the sanctuary!

Yes, yes! The demons that were protecting us are all suddenly dead!

This is the ...... expression of the villagers, all of whom are losing their composure. They are amateurs with no real combat experience or even combat training. If such people are exposed to the threat of demons strengthened by the power of "struggle", their mental load will be unbelievable. In order to overcome the disadvantageous situation, Ao killed himself and the skeleton soldiers who had been sent to guard the villagers. It's no wonder that the remaining holy knights are still worried about guarding the village. If the holy knights try to force them to stay, the villagers will run away on their own and it will be impossible to collect them.

"We need to keep giving this woman the magic of a normal human being. If we don't treat her here, she probably won't survive. You're abandoning her?

The lives of the people of Mejis are important to us. But if the villagers panic here, many of them will be displaced. We can't guarantee their lives if they leave the group without adequate supplies. ......

What to do. Do I try to convince the villagers? No, I don't have the power of speech to convince them. I'll have to use force. ...... That will create a fatal rift in the relationship between Ao and humans. However, if you ask me if the mother's strength will last until the evacuation site, ...... it will be impossible. I'm not sure if I'm going to be able to do this on my own. But the magic of the demon world is poisonous to humans. Even though they are related by blood, the demon's magic power is unlikely to keep them safe. ....... If this happens...

I'll stay and help!

I'm not sure what to make of this. I'm not sure if you've seen this before, but I'm sure you've seen it before. He's probably the youngest, considering the age of the other holy knights.

"Marya, but...

I'm not sure what to make of this. I'm sure you'll be pleased to know that I'm not the only one who's had it.

"......, that's right. Can this guy handle it by himself?

I'd like to see a few if possible, but ...... let me check the amount of magic power.

I'm going to measure the magical power of a holy knight named Marya. I'm not sure if you've seen this before, but I've seen it before. It seems that she has been training well. This may be just barely manageable.

"Oh, um... What do you think?

"It might be able to handle it. It's just that I'll have to get magic power until the last minute. It'll be a lot of work if you're on your own.

No problem! The role of a holy knight is to be the sword that protects the people! The role of the holy knight is to be the sword that protects the people! He must be willing to be worn down for that purpose!

All right, we'll get ready as soon as possible. The rest of the holy knights, please continue to evacuate the villagers.

I turn my gaze back to the villagers who are leaving the place. Using earth magic, I set up two simple beds and put my mother in one of them. In the other, I tell Marya to lie down. Marya follows my instructions and hastily removes her armor. When she removes her helmet, her long dark purple hair, which is common in the region of Medis, hangs over her shoulders.

...... It was a woman?

What, is it bad if I'm a woman?

No, ...... it doesn't. All the women around me are more energetic than the men.

I'm not sure if I'm going to be able to do this, but I'm sure I'll be able to do it. I shake my head to clear my mind. He sprinkles the chains on the arms of his mother and Marya, who are lying side by side, and places his hand over her eye. Using magic that absorbs magic through the chains, she slowly sucks up Marya's magic and transfers it to her mother. After confirming that the mother's body has begun to accumulate enough magic power, she uses her hand to suck the magic power around the mother's eyes to this side.

You can use two spells to absorb magic power and one to give it. ...... You're very dexterous. ......

In the event that you have any kind of questions regarding where and how to use the internet, you can call us at the web site. In addition, we are also building a sealing spell to suppress the power that resides near the eye.

...... How can one person do that?

It's not a problem if there are ten or twenty simultaneous activations. It's about to get tough, are you okay?

Yes, yes! This is a great way to make sure you are getting the most out of your time with your family.

There is a difference in the way the body reacts when it consumes itself and when it is deprived. In the latter case, the body will overreact to an attack from an external enemy. It's going well, but there is still a limit to how much you can take for one person.

This is about the limit. With this much treatment, we should be able to buy enough time to get you to Garne for proper treatment.

"Wait, wait! I'm still okay! If there's even the slightest chance of survival, please continue!

You've already siphoned off enough to kill an average person. You're already sucking up so much that an average human would die of consumption.

I'll be fine! I'll endure it with all my strength!

No, it's not something you can do with your mind.

With my will! I'll endure!

...... Okay.

I've seen many people with determination in my life. This young holy knight's determination is no less than those people. Then there's no need to hesitate. We will proceed with the treatment until we are in a better position to deliver his mother safely to Garne.

Oh, ...... stick ......

"Your body is starting to spasm to warn you of danger. Bite down on your back teeth. Your eyes need to be closed as hard as you can.

No, no, ...... it's better to look at the person you want to help ...... than close your eyes. ...I can!

Marya tilted her head and continued to look at her mother. At this point, her body begins to understand death. If the sensation engulfs you, you will lose consciousness and die a quick and debilitating death. Keep your eyes on Marya's eyes as you proceed with the treatment. He warms the area around her body with magic to dull the chill, and lightly stimulates her sense of pain to prevent her from losing consciousness.

"It's going to hurt a little, but be careful. Concentrate on the pain.

It's ...... ....... More ...... hard ...... please .......

"...... Okay.

Geez!

Marya's body jumps in pain. The part of the body that senses pain is protected by skin and flesh. It is only natural that it hurts when it is directly stimulated. The pain Marya is experiencing right now is probably far greater than any ordinary torture. Yet she grits her teeth and endures. A lot of sweat is flowing from her body, which should be feeling cold, and her body is repeatedly twitching unnaturally. Even so, the determination in her eyes has not wavered.

"...... Good. That's enough.

Thanks to Marya, most of the demonic power that had infiltrated her mother's body had been absorbed. She has a seal around her eyes that suppresses the power, so there is no further erosion. The remaining magic power in her body is close to healthy, so it is safe to say that she is no longer in danger of death.

"Oh, ...... is over. ......?

Yeah. Yes, you are no longer in danger of death. This will allow us to avoid risky treatments and treat you safely.

It's ...... good to be .......

The relieved Marya was in more danger than her mother. But from the looks of it, she'll probably only be in a coma for a few days. But just in case, I'll ask her to share the magic of others at the shelter.

Thank you, Marya. I think it's admirable of you as a knight to go this far for a single villager.

Thank you ...... ....... But ...... that's not the only ...... thing ....... This person ...... is your mother ......, isn't she ......?

"...... Oh, yes.

"You were weighing the ...... mother against the ...... villagers and trying ...... to give her up. ....... Isn't that ...... too ...... much ....... It's ...... too much ...... to put such a person through so much ...... pain when he's ...... fighting for us. ...to make them ......

The reason why Marya was so stubborn and continued to endure the pain was because I had mentioned her mother? An outsider fighting for his country, unable to abandon the life he was somehow trying to save, came forward alone, and was willing to endure torture just because he found out it was the outsider's immediate family?

Thank you for your concern. After this, we'll get you both to a safe house. You won't wake up for a few days, but I'll find someone who can take good care of you, so you can sleep in peace.

"Yes, ........ Speaking of which, ...... your name ......

"Oh, I never told you my name. My name is Ecdysiac, Ecdysiac-Sulphur.

I'm ...... Marya. ...... Marya-Pentes. ......
