Saikyou Juzoku Tensei ~Cheat Majutsushi no Slow Life~-Chapter 104 - Episode Twenty-Five

I decided to bury the Asura 5000 I made from Evil Bound in the forest near the city.

If I brought it back poorly, there would be a big mess, and I didn’t want people to know that I had subjugated it.

If I had a big black Ortem with me, Allen from the survey team would know at a glance that it was the monster from that time.

It’s not just the color and size, but also the face that I’ve politely made look like.

Besides, even if you put it in the city, it would be difficult to find a place to store it.

With the magic power of this tree, it can be made to deal with teleportation magic, so as long as it’s near the city, it’s no problem.

With this distance, I should be able to call it in quickly when I’m in the city or the forest.

I’ll use my sorcery to put a large hole in the forest and control the Asura 5000 to dive underground.

Then I moved the soil again to fill the hole and used magic to make the soil enhanced.

This would make it unlikely that an outsider would dig it out.

“I’ll call you out again. By then, you’ll have to help me.”

I shut my eyes and cut a cross with my arms in a squeezing motion.

“…… I bet they didn’t think that the demon that beat them up was rebuilt and buried in the ground.”

Mea spilled this as he looked at the discolored ground.

“Well then, the next step is to see how much this thing can be redeemed for. I’ll rely on you regarding the report on the subjugation of Evil Bound again, Mea.”

“I’ll take care of it! I’ve been itching for an armful since I read Wegener-san’s book the other day……”

So, finally, Wegener is attached with ‘-san’ now for Mea.

…… I feel like I’m about to sink to the bottom of the pyramid, but let’s not say anything else.

I washed the roots of Evil Bound with water magic to remove the soil and cut it into five pieces.

I use magic analysis to leave the part of the body that has accumulated magic power and bury the rest in the soil and pass it to Mea.

The root of the Evil Bound that Mea received is wrapped in a cloth and put away.

“…… But you’re going to give this to Gaston too? Mea thinks that’s enough. I’m sure he’ll be found out one day, and it won’t last long.”

Hmmmmm…… For me, I intend to return to the Marren tribe’s village after a few years, so I don’t plan to continue it that long, and I think it’ll last somehow.

I definitely don’t want to have to bring the trouble with the nobles to the village when I go back……

I’ve also got the Gordon brother’s as a deterrent to prevent Gaston from doing anything extra, and I want to keep going somehow until just before the collapse.

So we have the option of setting up shop once we’ve accumulated enough money.

After burying the Asura 5000, we headed back to the city of Lomarn.

We managed to get back, even though we had to stop for a break and hang up our feet on the way.

The atmosphere in the city of Lomarn was a bit more stuffy than when we left.

There was an odd number of people leaving the city, and everyone was uniformly gloomy.

I could hear two men passing by talking about the lord’s private army, rumoring that they had returned in tatters.

It seemed that word was already spreading about the demon. Anyone with good instincts would be starting to get the full story.

I have to get Evil Bound’s roots to the Adventurer’s Support Center via Gaston as soon as possible and reassure everyone in town.

…… But before that, we’ll have a little rest.

I sit on the edge of the fountain near the north gate and rub my shins while catching my breath.

“Abel, are you okay? Somehow, um, your leg is vibrating weirdly, but……”

“…… Yeah, I’m fine.”

Mea looks at my bare feet with the hem of my pants rolled up, then slowly moves her hand closer and flattens it. f𝙧𝒆𝚎𝑤e𝚋𝓷o𝘷𝗲l.c𝐨m

Then she digs into her bag and pulls out a bunch of drugged Issa weed.

Issa weed is a type of medicinal herb that helps to heal muscle fatigue.

It’s like a poultice. It’s my travel companion.

Mea carefully wraps it around my leg.

After wrapping it around my right leg, she wraps it around my left leg.

“Whooo…… I think it’s starting to soften a bit. Sorry, Mea.”

“No, no! I feel like just helping Abel even a little in any way, Mea is very happy.”

Mea says while smirking.

“Ah, yeah……”

I’m glad to hear you say that much, but I feel a kind of bottomless anxiety.

It’s kind of hard to see the vision of Mea being happy ten or twenty years from now.

I can’t help but feel that she’s going to be hooked up with a guy who is a total jerk.

But today, with my curiosity taking me deeper and deeper, it was hell while going home.

I was thinking rather seriously about throwing my pride and everything else away and having Mea carry me on her back.

Maybe it’s because I’ve been walking too much, or maybe it’s just a weird headache.

Damn you, Evil Bound.

“Abel, are you sure it’s only your calf? maybe your thighs too, for example……”

“Oh, maybe I could wrap it up that way…… no, not here, indeed. I’ll wrap it up myself when we get back to the inn.”

“By yourself…… Is, Is that so……”

If you are disappointed there……

“Ah! Yes, that’s right! Jeez, actually, the owner of “Chimera’s” Tail taught Mea how to massage my shins! I’ll do it for you when we get back to the inn!”

Mea suddenly stands up and says in a slightly louder voice.

When I look up at her face to see what’s going on suddenly, her expression is stiff while she’s looking into my eyes anxiously.

You can’t refuse this guy.

“Oh, yeah, yes. Then I’ll ask you later……”

“Ah, yes! Leave it to me! It’s absolutely a one-hit to the sore muscles! Absolutely!”

After Mea said on and on, I let out a relieved breath of relief.

But when and where did the subject of a massage of the calves come up?

I’ve been thinking about that witch hat shop owner, and lately, I have the feeling that Mea often talks about him.

I’m sure it was an opportunity to deepen their friendship without me knowing, but did that shopkeeper really start targeting Mea’s horns?

When the horns are gone from Mea’s head, the first one I’ll head into is the “Chimera’s Tail”.

Mea puts my pants back on.

…… That’s the least I can do. It’s a bit embarrassing.

Well then.

Let’s see if we can find Gaston before we get back to the inn.

It seems that a few people are fleeing the city, so I’d like to let them know immediately.

In case I can’t find Gaston, it might be a good idea to spread the rumor that Gaston seems to have defeated it.

When I got up, I wavered a bit.

Mea hurriedly put her hands on my waist to support me.

“Maybe you should take a little more time to rest?”

“…… Well, you know, I was thinking on the way home today.”

When I begin to speak, Mea closes her mouth.

“Don’t you think lately I’ve been gaining a lot of strength? I mean, I’ve gone out a lot…… and today, I’ve gone out a lot farther. Hey, don’t you think so?”

When I spoke excitedly, Mea blatantly looked away from me.

“I, I, I guess you could be right…… Mea feels like that, too.”

You don’t have to react so obviously……

Oh, Ahhh, yeah……
