The game’s magic wouldn’t change the terrain, but in this world, it carved a definite scar.
The stone bridge that was in front of Fort Bridge Ulg had been erased.
The area ahead of where Diablo was standing had completely disappeared, enough to make one think that it was before the bridge was constructed.
Rather, the area under feet started to crumble.
Hurriedly, he pulled back all the way to the fortress.
In the game, the ground being gouged out was just an effect and once the magic finished, its traces wouldn’t remain. But it wasn’t like that in this world. Even if he didn’t intend to destroy something, if it gets hit, it will break.
The fortress was safe.
At first, he was startled by the guards that weren’t moving, but they were just trembling from the sound and shock, and it seemed that there weren’t any casualties.
A majority of the Demonic Beings were annihilated.
Surprisingly, despite having received 《White Nova》 immediately after using 15% of her HP, Edelgart was standing.
Was she a Demonic Being that would appear in the back regions of Demon King territory?
Should he praise her with “As expected of a commander”? Should he claim abuse with “Don’t come out in a place like the Man-Eating Forest. What are you? A Bugged Character?”
She had lost her armor, lost her riding dragon, and lost her spear.
「……Un……Unbelievable……For……almost everything, disappear.」
「Bring me down? Play around you say? Don’t push your luck too far, you lowly Demonic Being. I’m sure I said that I am a Demon King.」
「……Demon King……Diablo.」
It looked like she could move, but she probably didn’t have the strength to continue the battle anymore.
「If you still wish to fight, then come to the town. I have another maximum magic, so next time for sure, I’ll annihilate you.」
Just to be sure, he threatened her.
Maybe because they were outside of the effect range, there were still some Demonic Beings remaining but he had no choice but to leave them to the fort bridge’s guards.
The town was the problem.
Diablo passed through Fort Bridge Ulg, and glared in the direction of the town.
Shera rushed over.
「Diablo! Are you alright!?」
「Worrying about me is pointless.」
「Then, let’s hurry! The town is in trouble!」
「Umu……I’ll attempt Return magic.」
He tightly gripped Shera’s hand, who got surprised and stiffened up.
Returning to the last town he had visited with the entire party, it was magic that was the basic of the basics.
There was no scientific basis.
——However, if Divine Beings and the Magicians of the Royal Capital are able to use it, it should be alright for me to use!
Diablo precisely imagined the process of using Return magic inside his brain.
Every time he used magic up until now, he was never this anxious.
——I’m begging you, please let me be able to use it!
Be invoked!
「《Return》!」
