Chapter 263: That's why I'm so disappointed.

Dokora's judgment was one of the best I've ever encountered. As soon as he had created the smoke screen, he had confirmed the enemy's information and the techniques and abilities we could use. Without hesitation, he chose to hide the hostages in the ground and instructed Lakra to cut off the legs of all the opponents in sight.
There is a difference in the way we think in the first place. We were aware of the hostages and wanted to help them as much as we could. We were being manipulated and shaken by Lahite, putting our own position at risk. However, Dokora was different, as he agreed to help the hostages as much as he could. Regardless of the hostage, it was still a pawn of Raheit. That's why he changed his policy to neutralize them even if it hurts them and take away their functions as pawns.
"There's a wavelength of magic that's prompting the explosion! It matches the direction Docora-san said it would go!
You've changed your strategy. They've changed their plan. They've given up on using the hostages, and are planning to blow us up anyway to stop us in our tracks. That's what I thought.
He also easily figured out a countermeasure for the undead to blow up. In the event that you've got any questions regarding where and the best way to get in touch with us, we'll be happy to assist you.
The wavelength of magic power is said to be greatly affected by the extreme change in the quality of magic power in the atmosphere. The combination of the magic power of Ao, the demon king, and Lakra's air purification magic changed the magic power around the undead into something completely different. As a result, the quality of the wavelength of the magic that Raheit sent to detonate the bomb was changed, and it stopped detonating.
Since I didn't interfere with the necromancy on the undead, the undead would just press towards us without any change. Then I can bind them with my chains and block their movement, and we can wipe them out.
"Rahite is back to his normal body. By the time he realizes what's been done to him, most of the undead will have been neutralized.
You'd have to be a coward to fall for a bluff like that. That's why it's so annoying.
You think Raheit still has a way?
I can usually tell what a guy is by looking in his eyes. That kind of guy doesn't back down easily. This is the reason why it's so important for you to have a good idea of what you're doing.
If you look in someone's eyes, huh? I've heard that Docora once looked at the Iliad that appeared before her and assured her that it wasn't you who had driven her to her death. In a sense, he has skills similar to those of his compatriot, I suppose.
You're talking like a monk, aren't you?
"Shosho? Oh, that guy. Not as good as him. Mine is an observation skill acquired on the battlefield and limited to battle. I can't put myself in the other guy's shoes and try to understand him.
But now it's the battlefield. A man who can fight and still be as observant as his countrymen is a serious threat. How could the Iliad defeat this man?
"Hmm... I think we've met before. ......
"You've been in Mejis, we've probably crossed paths at some point. You've neutralized the undead, haven't you?
Yeah. I'm done.
Even though the undead were once ordinary people with slightly enhanced physical abilities, my chains can still bind them without any problem while talking. If I bind his arms and legs in this way, he will fall over and will only be able to crawl like an earthworm in that state.
It's amazing how fast you can chain up this many undead. If I'm still alive, I'm sure you'll recruit me.
"That would be an honor. But you're already under the Demon Lord's command. A career change to bandit is a bit of a stretch.
Ha! Of course!
The hostages have been recovered and evacuated to the ground. Now all that's left is to capture the Rahite himself, who is said to be up ahead. But there's a bit of a gamble involved from here on out. It's not a question of whether he can win or not, but whether he can escape or not.
If Nektokhar completes his resurrection spell, there will be no need to stall for time. That's why Raheit is still here, because he hasn't perfected it yet. But he will grab the resurrection spell in his own hands and will not hesitate to flee if he sees the possibility that it will not come true.
We have to catch Raheit before he chooses to flee. The loss of the hostage will make that decision even faster. All we need to do is pack it in without Raheit noticing.
"Ecdysiac, put a paralyzing poison on my knife. I really want to die because my gear is so garbage. Oh, you're dead.
You're annoying! I brought all the tools I heard you were using.
Not enough. The pockets of the underworld have three times as much in them as you imagine. Well, I've got a lot of magic power from the Demon Lord. It's generous to have all the magic you can use.
You know, ...... I don't have an inexhaustible supply either. ......
As we continued down the road, Docora motioned with her hand for us to stop. Without saying a word, he approached a nearby coffin and began to examine it. He lowered his stance further and began to observe the ground carefully.
It looks like the body was here. There's a faint residue of magic. That's where it's headed.
You're like a hunter.
The Dark Side's job is to hunt people. You're not wrong. ...... Stop.
I sense that Docora's alertness has increased slightly. Is Raheit nearby? Use your locator spell.
You won't need it.
Ah!
A figure emerges from the shadow of a nearby coffin. He's pointing his right hand towards us and is about to cast a spell. I'll be able to use Lacla's warding at this distance, and more importantly, my chain counterattack will be faster!
I release my chain into the shadow's shoulder. But just as I thought I had hit it, the figure cracked as if it had been cracked open. This is a ...... crystal! You're saying it was a reflection of you?
"Field, set.
This is ......?
Crystals rose up from all around us, surrounding us. I'm not sure what to make of it, but I'm sure it's a good idea. But what surprised me was not that, but that the crystals around us reflected the same figure as before.
"Whoa, whoa. It's a familiar face. Yeah, that's the face. That's the face that took my arm!
You remember so well. I don't remember much of your face.
If it's a face Docora knows, then it's the body he used when he was working in the dark in Mejlis. I've heard that the body was kept in the hands of the Yugoslavian religion after it committed suicide when it was driven back by Archbishop Ucka. I've heard that it was taken away when Ceraes' rampage was discovered. .......
The magic seems to work much more smoothly than before. It's best not to think of him as the Raheit of the past.
Activate detection spell: ...... No good. This crystal was created with Raheit's magic, and it's reacting to detection magic. It seems to be hiding in the shadows of a crystal somewhere, but we can't detect it.
It's like an image in a mirror. It's like an image in a mirror. I know you're trying to distract us, but do you know who's in here?
"Everybody down!
At Lakra's signal, everyone lowers their posture. I'm sure you'll be able to figure out what's going on. I'm not sure what to make of that.
This will make it a little easier to find--?
"Lakra!
Rakura is holding his left shoulder. I'm not sure if it's a good idea, but it's a good idea. It was a knife-shaped piece of magic stone. Was it being thrown in time with Lacla's attack?
He looked in the direction the stone had come from, and there it was. It's not an illusion reflected in the crystal, but the real Raheit is there: ......! I'm not sure what to make of this.
I'm sure you'll be able to understand that I was inviting you to attack me to destroy the crystal, and I'm sure you thought you were taking advantage of my weakness, but that was a warm counterattack.
"I didn't mean it to be warm.
In the event that you're looking for the best way to get the most out of your business, you'll be able to take advantage of the following tips. It's a good idea to have a good idea of what you're looking for.
It was a quick end. I'm not sure what to say. ......! Ecdyke! Get away from Lakra!
What the...?
A sharp impact in my abdomen. As I fell, I looked down to see a crystal piercing my abdomen. How could it be coming from this direction, and Lacla from this direction?
I'm surprised. I thought other people's bodies were basically useless.
Lakra looked down at me with an expression that seemed to mock me. No, this is not Lakra. I'm not sure what to make of this, but I'm sure it's a good idea.
I'm not sure what to say. I'm not sure. You took Lakra's body!
'I was surprised that you were able to take it so easily. It was surprising how easy it was to take control of her body. Even though the quality of my magic doesn't match the quality of my body, I can handle magic as freely as my original body. With magical training, the flow of magical power within the body will become smoother. ...... This is amazing.
I've been hit. I'm not sure what to make of it. In the event that you have any questions concerning where and how to use the internet, you can call us at the web site. It was all bait to complete the process of transferring the soul.
D'cora glared at the current Rahite as she kicked the original Rahite's body lying at her feet.
You should write a biography and sell it. I'm sure the aristocracy would love it if you sold it as a biography.
I hope you'll take good care of it. I like your body a lot, you know.
I don't care. It wouldn't be worth it if you had to cut off an arm or two.
That's a problem. I'll just have to live with this body, won't I?
......
What to do. The damage you have just sustained cannot be healed immediately, but there is no problem in continuing the fight. The problem is that Lakra has become a hostage. Me and Docora might be able to capture him, but can we get him out of Rakura's body?
"Exduk, before I ask, are you ready?
What? Docola, what are you doing?
There's nothing I can do. If Rahite's soul has been transferred to that girl, we'll have to capture her.
It's okay. No problem.
Ecdict!
I'm not sure I like the idea of attacking Lakra, but I can't just let Lahite have free reign. If we can capture him, we can take the time to try to get him off of Rahite's body.
"Well, that's a bit harsh for a fellow human being. It is true that taking away this body does not mean that the difference in strength has been reversed. Then how about this?
"!
Raheit placed his right hand on his temple. The palm of his hand was filled with magic power. If he were to cast a spell in that state, Lakra's head would be ......!
"Hey, hey, you're new to this body, right? If I die here, can you transfer me to another body?
"Yes, you can. If you do it without using magic, your soul will be in the same unstable state as your undead body. And it won't possess the body you're kicking around. I've destroyed the mark and made it unapproachable.
"So you can escape to a body you've prepared outside. You got me.
Docora lowered her weapon as if she had given up. Wait, you're giving up? What will happen to Lakra if we don't?
There's no need to rush, Exoik. I'll be taking steps to move you to the far side now, so just wait there and do nothing. That should buy us some time for Nektohar to complete his resuscitation spell.
Raheit is preparing to flee. But what are the chances that Lakra will be released safely? Rahite will remain an enemy of his people even after his escape. If that's the case, it's unlikely that he'll just throw away the right to life and death that he took from Lakra right here and now.
Do you want to use the "Blind Eye"? If you can trick him with your vision information and get close enough to Rahite to paralyze him, or ...... if you're even slightly conscious, he can blow your head off. If Raheit could kill himself without hesitation even in his natural body, there is no way he would hesitate in Lakra's body.
"Ecdysiac, there's nothing more we can do. We made a last minute mistake.
Aah!
Yes, sir. You guys were so sure of your superiority...?
Suddenly, Rahite's movements stopped. The arm on his temple trembles and his whole body wobbles.
I'm sorry, I missed the subject. You're right, Rahite misjudged the last minute.
"Here, ...... is .......
Rahite collapsed on the ground, unable to even stand. His whole body was shaking, a symptom of some kind of paralytic poisoning.
I'm a scoundrel, remember? I'm a scoundrel, you know. If I knew how to take over a person's body, the idea of taking one of my enemies hostage would be the first thing I'd think of. That's why I gave Lakra different instructions beforehand. If Raheit does anything to you, it's to take your body. He told me to use a paralyzing poison on myself that would take a little longer than the instantaneous ones.
Didn't you think about the possibility that ...... would target me or Ao?
You're a demon, you're a demon lord. I'm not sure what to do. If you want to use me as a hostage, you should choose Lakra, right?
I'm not listening to you!
I said only Rakhra. I'm not sure if I'd be able to do that, but I'm sure I could. I'm sure you'll be happy to hear that.
I'm sure you'll be able to figure out what's going on here. In addition, he didn't tell me or Ao about it, and even that upset was just a way to buy time until paralysis set in. .......
I'm not sure what to do.
It's a good idea to have a good idea of what you're doing.
Please report us if you find any errors so we can fix it asap!

Of course!The hostages have been recovered and evacuated to the ground. Now all that's left is to capture the Rahite himself, who is said to be up ahead. But there's a bit of a gamble involved from here on out. It's not a question of whether he can win or not, but whether he can escape or not.If Nektokhar completes his resurrection spell, there will be no need to stall for time. That's why Raheit is still here, because he hasn't perfected it yet. But he will grab the resurrection spell in his own hands and will not hesitate to flee if he sees the possibility that it will not come true.We have to catch Raheit before he chooses to flee. The loss of the hostage will make that decision even faster. All we need to do is pack it in without Raheit noticing."Ecdysiac, put a paralyzing poison on my knife. I really want to die because my gear is so garbage. Oh, you're dead.You're annoying! I brought all the tools I heard you were using.Not enough. The pockets of the underworld have three times as much in them as you imagine. Well, I've got a lot of magic power from the Demon Lord. It's generous to have all the magic you can use.You know, ...... I don't have an inexhaustible supply either. ......As we continued down the road, Docora motioned with her hand for us to stop. Without saying a word, he approached a nearby coffin and began to examine it. He lowered his stance further and began to observe the ground carefully.It looks like the body was here. There's a faint residue of magic. That's where it's headed.You're like a hunter.The Dark Side's job is to hunt people. You're not wrong. ...... Stop.I sense that Docora's alertness has increased slightly. Is Raheit nearby? Use your locator spell.You won't need it.Ah!A figure emerges from the shadow of a nearby coffin. He's pointing his right hand towards us and is about to cast a spell. I'll be able to use Lacla's warding at this distance, and more importantly, my chain counterattack will be faster!I release my chain into the shadow's shoulder. But just as I thought I had hit it, the figure cracked as if it had been cracked open. This is a ...... crystal! You're saying it was a reflection of you?"Field, set.This is ......?Crystals rose up from all around us, surrounding us. I'm not sure what to make of it, but I'm sure it's a good idea. But what surprised me was not that, but that the crystals around us reflected the same figure as before."Whoa, whoa. It's a familiar face. Yeah, that's the face. That's the face that took my arm!You remember so well. I don't remember much of your face.If it's a face Docora knows, then it's the body he used when he was working in the dark in Mejlis. I've heard that the body was kept in the hands of the Yugoslavian religion after it committed suicide when it was driven back by Archbishop Ucka. I've heard that it was taken away when Ceraes' rampage was discovered. .......The magic seems to work much more smoothly than before. It's best not to think of him as the Raheit of the past.Activate detection spell: ...... No good. This crystal was created with Raheit's magic, and it's reacting to detection magic. It seems to be hiding in the shadows of a crystal somewhere, but we can't detect it.It's like an image in a mirror. It's like an image in a mirror. I know you're trying to distract us, but do you know who's in here?"Everybody down!At Lakra's signal, everyone lowers their posture. I'm sure you'll be able to figure out what's going on. I'm not sure what to make of that.This will make it a little easier to find--?"Lakra!Rakura is holding his left shoulder. I'm not sure if it's a good idea, but it's a good idea. It was a knife-shaped piece of magic stone. Was it being thrown in time with Lacla's attack?He looked in the direction the stone had come from, and there it was. It's not an illusion reflected in the crystal, but the real Raheit is there: ......! I'm not sure what to make of this.I'm sure you'll be able to understand that I was inviting you to attack me to destroy the crystal, and I'm sure you thought you were taking advantage of my weakness, but that was a warm counterattack."I didn't mean it to be warm.In the event that you're looking for the best way to get the most out of your business, you'll be able to take advantage of the following tips. It's a good idea to have a good idea of what you're looking for.It was a quick end. I'm not sure what to say. ......! Ecdyke! Get away from Lakra!What the...?A sharp impact in my abdomen. As I fell, I looked down to see a crystal piercing my abdomen. How could it be coming from this direction, and Lacla from this direction?I'm surprised. I thought other people's bodies were basically useless.Lakra looked down at me with an expression that seemed to mock me. No, this is not Lakra. I'm not sure what to make of this, but I'm sure it's a good idea.I'm not sure what to say. I'm not sure. You took Lakra's body!'I was surprised that you were able to take it so easily. It was surprising how easy it was to take control of her body. Even though the quality of my magic doesn't match the quality of my body, I can handle magic as freely as my original body. With magical training, the flow of magical power within the body will become smoother. ...... This is amazing.I've been hit. I'm not sure what to make of it. In the event that you have any questions concerning where and how to use the internet, you can call us at the web site. It was all bait to complete the process of transferring the soul.D'cora glared at the current Rahite as she kicked the original Rahite's body lying at her feet.You should write a biography and sell it. I'm sure the aristocracy would love it if you sold it as a biography.I hope you'll take good care of it. I like your body a lot, you know.I don't care. It wouldn't be worth it if you had to cut off an arm or two.That's a problem. I'll just have to live with this body, won't I?......What to do. The damage you have just sustained cannot be healed immediately, but there is no problem in continuing the fight. The problem is that Lakra has become a hostage. Me and Docora might be able to capture him, but can we get him out of Rakura's body?"Exduk, before I ask, are you ready?What? Docola, what are you doing?There's nothing I can do. If Rahite's soul has been transferred to that girl, we'll have to capture her.It's okay. No problem.Ecdict!I'm not sure I like the idea of attacking Lakra, but I can't just let Lahite have free reign. If we can capture him, we can take the time to try to get him off of Rahite's body."Well, that's a bit harsh for a fellow human being. It is true that taking away this body does not mean that the difference in strength has been reversed. Then how about this?"!Raheit placed his right hand on his temple. The palm of his hand was filled with magic power. If he were to cast a spell in that state, Lakra's head would be ......!"Hey, hey, you're new to this body, right? If I die here, can you transfer me to another body?"Yes, you can. If you do it without using magic, your soul will be in the same unstable state as your undead body. And it won't possess the body you're kicking around. I've destroyed the mark and made it unapproachable."So you can escape to a body you've prepared outside. You got me.Docora lowered her weapon as if she had given up. Wait, you're giving up? What will happen to Lakra if we don't?There's no need to rush, Exoik. I'll be taking steps to move you to the far side now, so just wait there and do nothing. That should buy us some time for Nektohar to complete his resuscitation spell.Raheit is preparing to flee. But what are the chances that Lakra will be released safely? Rahite will remain an enemy of his people even after his escape. If that's the case, it's unlikely that he'll just throw away the right to life and death that he took from Lakra right here and now.Do you want to use the "Blind Eye"? If you can trick him with your vision information and get close enough to Rahite to paralyze him, or ...... if you're even slightly conscious, he can blow your head off. If Raheit could kill himself without hesitation even in his natural body, there is no way he would hesitate in Lakra's body."Ecdysiac, there's nothing more we can do. We made a last minute mistake.Aah!Yes, sir. You guys were so sure of your superiority...?Suddenly, Rahite's movements stopped. The arm on his temple trembles and his whole body wobbles.I'm sorry, I missed the subject. You're right, Rahite misjudged the last minute."Here, ...... is .......Rahite collapsed on the ground, unable to even stand. His whole body was shaking, a symptom of some kind of paralytic poisoning.I'm a scoundrel, remember? I'm a scoundrel, you know. If I knew how to take over a person's body, the idea of taking one of my enemies hostage would be the first thing I'd think of. That's why I gave Lakra different instructions beforehand. If Raheit does anything to you, it's to take your body. He told me to use a paralyzing poison on myself that would take a little longer than the instantaneous ones.Didn't you think about the possibility that ...... would target me or Ao?You're a demon, you're a demon lord. I'm not sure what to do. If you want to use me as a hostage, you should choose Lakra, right?I'm not listening to you!I said only Rakhra. I'm not sure if I'd be able to do that, but I'm sure I could. I'm sure you'll be happy to hear that.I'm sure you'll be able to figure out what's going on here. In addition, he didn't tell me or Ao about it, and even that upset was just a way to buy time until paralysis set in. .......I'm not sure what to do.It's a good idea to have a good idea of what you're doing.
