I Summoned a Max Level Demon by Myself

Episode 110

It’s an area that existed even in the days of the game.

Discovering this place is the purpose of my accompanying this quest.

In short, Melissa.

That ghost is a person who existed even in the game days.

It is also a person who should be formally interacted with.

Although she is not a heroine, in order to use this place, she must establish a certain level of friendship.

“so? What is the purpose of this accumulation of knowledge? It’s not something you can take to the underworld.”

It must be because it is a ghost that has no intention of going to the other world in the first place.

“You’re trying to use your knowledge to achieve something, aren’t you?”

(…to return.)

Melissa confessed the meaning of her existence.

to go back

As she said that, her gaze turned slightly upward.

ceiling… … . no, on the ground.

The world of Philos Academy where light can reach.

(First of all, I need to correct one thing. Juniors…. I am not completely dead.)

Melissa corrected her misunderstanding about her identity and glanced sideways.

Naturally, everyone’s eyes follow.

what is there.

“… … coffin.”

transparent tube. Someone is enshrined in the transparent coffin, as if light has been materialized and hardened.

That ghost right now, a girl who looks exactly like Melissa.

“dead body? no way… … .”

“No, it’s not a corpse.”

I corrected Lisetta’s hasty misunderstanding, and Emily nodded as well.

“It is faintly animated. It’s almost like being dead.”

Literally dying. A state in which even the slightest touch would cause him to die.

At those words, Melissa’s ghost put on a bitter expression.

(Unfortunately, it ended up like this… My purpose is to return to the world somehow.)

“For treatment, go to the healer at the academy… … .”

“No, it will be useless.”

Even they can’t bring someone who is almost dead to life.

Melissa’s current state is, in fact, a state where she has barely connected her soul to her corpse.

It is just a living soul with a preserved body.

Because it is in an ambiguous state, it does not lose its ego and does not fall into a ghost.

(The purpose is to gather knowledge… to complete the knowledge to save myself.)

“Is that possible?”

Lisetta, who does not know much about this field, also asks skeptically.

lion’s life.

Everyone would say the same thing when Melissa said that she would develop a theory or skill that could do that.

“… … .”

Except for me, who keeps my mouth shut.

“I think it would be quicker to transform into another being based on that soul.”

(That’s a specification, demon. My goal is to go back to being the person I was before. Melissa Kenillion.)

I will return to my original self while maintaining my identity. Say otherwise it doesn’t make any sense.

(I am vaguely convinced. Your knowledge of the world is developing little by little.)

If you collect them, keep collecting them, and study them endlessly, one day you will get a clue that makes the impossible possible.

It is a statement that puts hope on the development of the world.

(That’s just my wish.)

As if she had nothing more to confess, Melissa quietly waited for our answer.

“In short, do you mean to pretend you didn’t see me?”

(It will happen. Of course, I don’t think that will ever happen.)

Melissa’s voice suddenly becomes cold.

“oh?”

At the same time Emily let out a puzzled voice, the figure of Melissa she was holding on to disappeared.

“Did you treat your spiritual body as a summoned object and reverse summon it to escape?”

This is possible because the main body exists separately.

I’m not the only one who had a bad feeling about it.

(It’s a pity, but I can’t just let it go. I’m going to receive the knowledge… I’ll have to forget about this place as well.)

Melissa’s voice came from somewhere.

At the same time, the feeling of the floor supporting my feet disappeared.

It falls.

The boss battle of this quest.

The battle with Melissa, the spirit of knowledge, begins.

* * *

Melissa, the spirit of knowledge.

It should have been level 32.

Since it is basically a ghost, it is better to prepare in a way to deal with evil spirits such as ghosts rather than humans.

Pure physical damage does not work, and it is more effective to use magic or high-level auras.

“… … Will there be a fight after all?”

“It’s a surprise?! What the hell is the ghost calling himself that senior? Suddenly dropping someone!”

Lisette was outraged, as if she were genuinely absurd.

“You should have cut it off then!”

“Now, now, calm down. senior. Would you like some candy here?”

“… … What is it, juniors aren’t angry?”

“Because you don’t listen to the words of swindlers and ghosts. I knew the ghost didn’t believe in me anyway.”

The reason why he was willing to fall into the trap is simple.

“Since ancient times, cheaters and ghosts only listen when they lose.”

In fact, it is a necessary process.

To subdue Melissa and help me achieve my personal goals, I have to prove it most convincingly.

power.

There’s nothing wrong with showing strength and subduing it rather than making silly conversations.

“Are you surprised? If it were a normal draft, he would say it’s annoying and say let’s solve it verbally.”

“… … I also differentiate between opponents.”

In response to Emily’s question, I briefly explained the reason.

“Conversation is built on the premise of a certain level of trust, isn’t it?”

The ghost doesn’t believe in anyone.

Especially the students of the academy.

Although he doesn’t do anything to the point of taking his life, he never trusts him.

I can say for sure because I know the reason.

“Now that it’s like this, let’s stick together. A self-proclaimed ghost senior.”

I declared to Melissa, who was listening.

“You don’t have the heart to return it gracefully, do you? Or are you going to lock me up here and kill me?”

Let’s shout at the ceiling as if I were provoking.

(That can’t be the case… I haven’t fallen that much. I just moved because I wanted to avoid damaging my precious knowledge.)

Melissa’s voice rang out.

(I have no intention of killing you. I just want to make you forget.)

“Do you talk about bullsh*t in moderation?”

Who is relieved to hear that people are rubbing heads?

“… … Xian over there? What if that ghost does what it says?”

Lisetta asked cautiously.

This kind of knowledge is lacking, so you shouldn’t be ashamed of not expecting it.

“As the ghost senior said, there will be no death or deterioration. … … However, it seems that there will be temporarily annoying side effects.”

“… … side effect?”

“Strong mental interference leaves side effects in one way or another. If you touch it, you’ll probably get an oblivion effect, so you won’t be able to remember or recall it for a few days.”

“for a moment? It’s midterm soon, right?”

“yes. It specifically ruins the test.”

Even in the game, if you try and lose at this point, you will receive a large penalty from the test score of the midterm evaluation that will come shortly.

Actually, it is a scary ghost.

“huh. okay. I will cut and kill you with all my might.”

Lisetta’s spirit becomes spleen.

Maybe the written score is more on the edge than I’m figuring it out.

“If you lose, it is. … … I have no intention of losing in the first place.”

He has no interest in necromancy, but he still stakes the title of a warlock.

What if you lose to a ghost like a mosquito? The sign should be removed.

Of course, being confident would be the same for that ghost.

(You seem to have forgotten. The distant juniors… This is the room right below my main body.)

“You know? The Earth Spirit becomes stronger the closer it is to the center where it is bound.”

A characteristic of the spirit body that cannot wander anywhere else.

Therefore, in general, when dealing with the evil spirits of the Earthly Spirit, it is standard to use the method of forcibly separating them temporarily from the bound land.

“I think that handicap would be just right. … … Without it, it seems like they would completely destroy it even by mistake.”

(You speak well.)

A mocking laugh.

But in reality, I wouldn’t belittle it.

The unique bleak chilliness deepens.

“The sign is… … .”

“This entire room… … . It must have been some kind of ghost.”

said Emily, looking around.

“Expanding the existence to the extent that it cannot reveal its true nature… … . However, the vessel of the human soul alone would not be able to exert its power, right?”

“You shouldn’t think of it as a normal ghost.”

It retains its original intelligence.

Not to mention, it wouldn’t be at the level of a normal human being.

He himself is said to be a genius.

“come.”

Among the spreading signs, it captures the places where minute fluctuations are felt.

As a warning, an ice spear appears from that direction and starts flying.

ice spear.

A common magic with the Freeze attribute corresponding to Circle 3.

“Was that ghost a magic class?”

Lisetta easily hits the flying ice spear, and I also catch Emily and move to avoid it.

“But enough of this… … .”

“Don’t be fooled! It’s behind! Not magic, but a sword!”

“… … huh? ah?!”

Lisetta’s body reacted to my warning before she thought.

I turned around and swung my sword at the edge of the unexpected surprise attack from behind and struck it straight away.

Caang!

“what?! knife?!”

It was a bit worn out, but what collided with Lisetta’s sword was a sword that was commonly provided to Auror classes at the academy.

It flies out of the air and continuously strikes at Lisetta.

“And with this sword… … . for a moment?! Does this make sense?!”

Lisetta, who saw through the sword several times, screamed in embarrassment.

“A while ago, magic! Sword this time! Is that the sword of the Melseet family?”

(hehehe… I know it right away after just seeing it a few times. Besides, your sword… is it Belkenil?)

Did a member of the Belkenil family attend school at that time as well?

(I haven’t had a chance to collect the swords of the Belkenil family. Whoa… It’s a good opportunity.)

“uh… … oh oh oh isn’t it dangerous? me?”

Aggro turned toward Lisetta with a sound of laughter as if it had found its prey.

“congratulation. Senior Lisetta. From what I can see, he seems to like you.”

“I am not happy at all! Chit! Annoying! Xian, bow your head!”

I immediately fell flat on my stomach without asking.

Lisetta jumped back and landed right in front of me.

fault. The sound of light footsteps.

“Cut everything.”

Lisetta, who pulled out both swords, remained the same.

It spins its body in a large circle and scatters sword energy around it.

Dual swordsmanship – The annihilation sword.

The sword energy that spreads out in a circle cuts through the air regardless of whether it is a sword flying in the air or magic.

Paca caca caca river!

Shards of the broken sword and pieces of ice fall to the floor with a continuous cutting sound.

“What the hell is this ghost! Magic and sword! Even more so, they are all different.”

“That is the power of this ghost. … … Didn’t you hear that a while ago? That guy has been gathering knowledge from the academy for decades.”

“that is… … . uh?”

Only then did Lisetta find out about Melissa’s abilities.

A ghost copying knowledge.

So, can ghosts use it or not?

“It means he wasn’t a ghost who coveted things he couldn’t use.”

“Does that make sense? that kind of thing… … .”

It was the ghost’s voice that answered Lisetta, who was appalled by the fact that it couldn’t be done with common sense.

(Did I mention that? A distant junior. I was the chief of the 63rd class… At that time, I was a genius who mastered the theory of all classes.)

And that talent does not change even after death.

No, rather, it became a ghost and bloomed even more grotesquely.

(The collected knowledge is limited here, but it can all be reproduced. Like this.)

The presence increases.

sword and ax… … Hundreds of hammers, etc.

Likewise, arrows and spears of fire and ice and lightning spring up in the air.

Also, what happens after that is a spirit?

(This is the reproduction of knowledge. It was only when I became like this that my ability blossomed.)

Although each of them is insignificant, the quantity is vast and the number is diverse.
