Volume 1 Reverse Current Chapter 14 Settle down, Demon Whisper, Requiem
"Lulu-chan?"
Lulu, who was hiding in the bushes, heard the sound and saw the two of them coming out of the forest safe and sound, her eyes were moist, and her little face was full of surprise.
"Huh? Lord Ernest's hairstyle is really creative! Lulu's strange focus was on the hairstyle, and she didn't care about whether Hanichiro and Lilith were injured first.
"The wind is very noisy today", Koichiro helplessly flicked the wind that accompanied Kiyoki's flight speed to blow his deformed hairstyle.
"Hmm...... It doesn't matter what it is. Lulu didn't notice the embarrassment of the others at all, and responded naturally.
When the time came, Ashley really drove the bone dragon to swoop down from the sky very punctually, and the bone dragon that stopped on the ground was still using its huge wings to fan the dust on the ground, and all of a sudden the sky was full of smoke and dust.
"You can go home~"
Ashley was the first to pull Lulu onto the bone dragon's back and check to see if she was hurt.
"Mission accomplished, return the blood oath." Koichiro-kun breathed a sigh of relief.
"Let's go." Lilith still reacted very flatly.
'After a hundred battles, do you already think that assassination is just a boring job?' ’
Just as the three of them were about to go back to the secret base......
"Wait, the final finishing touches, shouldn't we also clean up the same?"
"Lord Ernist, the rest can be done by the backup army." Lilith frowned when she heard the idea of postponing her return.
"I'll be right there when I get to Richard's monster warehouse."
But Lilith was unmoved.
"Richard's monster shop, I need to check the potion of monster rage, maybe it will come in handy." Koichiro made an excuse and took out the crystal, which was glowing with a leisurely glow.
Lilith saw the strange crystal in Hanichiro's hand, frowned and hesitated for a while, and finally agreed, "It's like a demon's eye, okay, an hour?" ”
"Well, that's enough. Wait for me. ”
"If you're going to Richard's base camp, it's better to bring Lulu, who knows Demon Story." ’
Koichiro glanced back at Ashley on the bone dragon, this person seemed to be glaring at him just now, "It's still not, after all, the reverse scale of the sister control is inviolable."
Lulu jumped off the back of the bone dragon and grabbed Koichiro's arm with her thin hand, "Lord Ernest, I want to go with you." ”
It turned out that my sister wanted to kill me, and I guessed it accurately. ’
"Lord Ernest ......," said Ashley, "watch her or ......," and he gestured to wipe his neck, a threat in his tone.
"Well, it has to be."
'Ashley is so gentle with his sister. ’

Returning to the car pulled by the snow wolf species, there is only half an hour left to explore what is expected to happen.
Because when he was about to go back, a picture of about ten seconds long appeared in front of Hanichiro's eyes, which was a black sphere, which was found in Richard's Demon Seed Shop.
Maybe that's the sign of the Devil of the Devils of the Polaris. ’
Actually, it's like a quest plot that appears in a video game or comic, so let's just think of it as a hidden plot to do it, maybe it can affect and change the outcome of my final death. ’
So he must currently find the mysterious black orb that is stored inside before the reinforcements reach Richard's base store, though it's not clear what it is.
The snow wolf breed drove Hanichiro and Lulu who were holding him tightly on their way to Richard's demon seed shop base camp, which was said to be hidden close to the slums, but fortunately the snow wolf was faster.
It was almost late at night, and there were still many homeless people and unscrupulous people along the road, as well as drunkards who were paralyzed on the ground talking nonsense. There are even beggars who see the carriages coming and going, and will push the broken bowl on the ground in their dreams.
Alas, human poverty is not only the hardship of life, but also the loss of human dignity in the life of the poor. ’
Broken bottles and garbage everywhere, the sound of quarrels that can be heard at any time, and the sound of destruction of falling things. The most ridiculous thing is that there is a strong odor in the air.
'The bottom of the Gaia Brand Empire lives quite darkly. ’
Moving along this dark alleyway, Koichiro was a little worried that someone would hijack him halfway, so he grabbed the reins of the car with one hand and drew his sword with the other to prevent a surprise attack. After all, snow wolf cars, which seem to be worth a different amount from the poor, are more likely to be targeted for extortion by the poor and hooligans in the dark night.
Towards the end, the two finally saw a strangely decorated room that resembled a circus tent, with a stern-looking iron door outside.
Koichiro took out a bunch of keys from his pocket that he had just found in the pocket of Richard's body's suit.
It seems that there are a lot of keys, so I have to try them one by one. ’
Koichiro had a headache with this cumbersome way of unlocking.
Lulu on the side untied the thousand ropes of a snow wolf species pulling a cart at this time, and then gently touched the head of the snow wolf species, and said to the snow wolf species the magic language that Hanichiro did not understand.
"Is this asking them how to pick the lock?" Koichiro asked as he tried the different keys, "If you can know this way, then you can keep one or two such clever monsters in the secret base." ’
Sure enough, these snow wolf species, who specialize in pulling carts, quickly identified the correct key by smell, and under Lulu's communication.
"Lord Ernest, this is it." Lulu pointed to one of the keys with a diamond-shaped handle.
Koichiro inserted the diamond-shaped key into the keyhole, and the tight door of the circus tent slowly opened with the sound of metal.
——————————
The interior of the store was dimly lit, and the burning of kerosene lamps made the air even more suffocating, mixed with a faint rancid smell. The smell of the beast is also very strong, and you can tell at a glance that the environment is not in good condition.
There were also several black cages in the tent, and among them, only the black figures of human figures were restless.
'It's not human, is it?' ’
When Koichiro looked closer, it was a creature that looked like a human, but its skin was covered with blue-black beast fur, with sharp claws and fangs, and the ears on the top of its head were similar to wolf ears, it must have been a werewolf or something, and it roared and desperately rushed into the cage.
'Orcs, huh?' ’
Are these the orcs that usually appear in fantasy novels?' ’
"Woo woo woo...... Roar."
"Woohoo......" The howls seem to be a plea for rescue.
However, Koichiro and Lulu are not here to rescue these monsters, and the handling of the monsters is still to be completed by the reinforcement army.
At this moment, the sympathetic Lulu whispered the monster lullaby in Monogatari, and the manic demon species around him gradually calmed down, no longer desperately trying to break through the huge black cage......
"Thank you, Lulu."
'Now it's time for me to look for the prophesied black orb......
