I Summoned a Max Level Demon by Myself

Episode 71

《Clear the sub quest.》

《Quest clear reward will be given.》

《Skill Points: Acquire 5pts.》

《Remaining Skill Points: 28pt》

Cleared.

The seal that suppressed the tree fairies loses its effect as soon as the monster disappears.

It was confirmed that the power to suppress them had disappeared.

[The existence that takes away power disappears.]

[With this, I can go back to the forest again.]

[However, the monster in the center of the forest remains.]

[As long as the monster remains, the forest will not be freed.]

“Hmm, hmm, a monster… … .”

Wow, there are many things I wish for.

You were released, but you said you couldn’t go out because you were afraid of monsters?

The dryads’ voices were fearless.

It was because I only dealt with the seals that threatened their existence.

《Due to the completion of the sub-quest, the field effect of ‘Forest of Blood’ will be changed.》

In any case, it would have been easier to operate.

Because the concentration of the demonic energy that dominates the forest will fade.

“Then, I hope you will grant my request this time.”

Canceling the debuff effect of the forest is a secondary purpose for the survival of other children.

The purpose of the attack is from now on.

[request?]

[Are you a human?]

“When we are in trouble, we should help each other. We need your help to get rid of that ‘monster’.”

This is what I want.

“Make a side road to the center of the forest.”

One of the benefits of completing the quest is that you can enter the center of the Forest of Blood.

Originally, the center of this forest was a shelter where trees inhabited by tree fairies grew.

With their strength, they might be able to make a side road.

[i get it.]

“And I need your help too.”

[The power we have left… … .]

“know. won’t be enough So, it only takes once.”

I hope to gather their remaining strength and support when I need it.

《Rewards for sub-quests are paid.》

《Event Skill: Obtain the Protection of the Tree Fairy.》

An event-type skill that can only be used in a specific section.

What is needed to cross an unbreakable pattern or pass through a place that cannot be entered.

“How to use it?”

When I asked that, the dryads pointed their fingers at me.

my wrist.

A green light flickers there, and soon a bracelet decorated with leaves is filled.

[Cut off the token and the power will be released.]

“I like how simple it is.”

I understand how to use it.

The effect is well known. So there will be no mistake because you don’t know how to use it.

Then, all that’s left is to go clear Phase 1.

“Let’s start attacking slowly.”

* * *

The target for Phase 1 is the center of the Distorted Blood Tree Forest.

blood tree.

It is to reach the base of the villains and defeat the boss who commands them.

However, it is not easy to get there by blindly proceeding.

It is difficult to find your way due to the effects spread throughout the field.

Even if it arrives, the high-density miasma surrounding the blood clot itself blocks its progress.

In short, it means that even if you advance to attack the enemy’s stronghold, you will be blocked there and have no choice but to turn back.

It’s common sense in RPGs.

‘It’s not like there’s no strategy… … .’

The way a player who has not seen a separate strategy will proceed roughly like this.

In order to obtain material to break through the barrier of miasma, he travels throughout the forest to deal with the Blood Trees and establishes the means.

Or you can get a ‘byway’ by doing the wood sprite’s prison quest.

If you ask which one is the right strategy, the answer is to break through the side road.

You can skip a lot of annoying battles, and if you enter through the ‘side road’, you can penetrate the main base and execute the first phase.

“Is a side road underground?”

“Listen up, Celidia. The tunnel is a time-honored means of intrusion.”

“indeed! They say stealth and ambush are fair against the wicked!”

“I don’t mean to say that.”

The path the dryads prepared was a tunnel that went straight to the center through the forest’s basement.

The tree nymph’s power means that she can interfere not only in the upper part of the forest, but also in the lower part where the roots grow.

They used the root of the possessed tree to dig the ground like an excavator to open a side road.

‘It’s really a fairy of the tunnel.’

Through such a byway, we were able to reach the root of the blood tree.

bottom layer of blood.

root of blood.

“It feels like the basement of an old castle.”

“It looks like it has been secluded using this as a base for 30 years, so it must have had some decent facilities.”

What is unusual is that this stronghold is a living plant.

If you look closely, the wood that forms the wall wriggles like the epidermis of a living creature.

“Upset.”

“Well, I won’t eat you, so don’t worry.”

Of course, that doesn’t mean it’s safe.

This is the enemy’s stronghold.

That said, I don’t even have to say what the guys here are.

“… … let’s go.”

“What are you going to do? Are you going to hide?”

“It’s obvious.”

The options after hiding behind enemy lines are not that diverse.

Does it move secretly without the knowledge of mice or birds?

or not… … .

“It will be difficult to break in and hide here. … … Let’s just destroy everything.”

Burn enemy camps and destroy them, leaving no ashes behind.

Of course, I prefer that side.

* * *

Melfrang, bloodthirsty.

monster. This old man, who is in charge of the plan pursued by the blood people, was sure that the moment of achieving the long-awaited wish would not be far away.

“… … The world truly wishes for the downfall of an abominable empire.”

He murmured in excitement.

The conditions were perfect.

For the final ritual, the blood and vitality of a quality sacrifice were needed.

Around that time, when I heard from Professor Millington, an insider, that new students at Philos Academy were training here, I was sure that this was destiny.

The professors at the academy must be restless outside the barrier.

Even they won’t be able to break through easily.

“The time draws near.”

There is only one wish.

In this forest, the existence they enshrine descends.

“Yes, everything is according to destiny.”

What comes to mind when I close my eyes is a scene from the past 30 years ago.

However, just thinking about it vividly brings back humiliation, anger, and hatred.

“Emperor, even if I’m torn to death.”

I lost everything and had no choice but to flee to this forest in grief.

What voice did he hear?

“Ahh… … . The day I heard your voice, I realized the true task I had to accomplish… … . You are bloody.”

From noble mtl dot com

30 years ago.

He was called by the blood tree and made a contract, transforming into a monster with blood magic.

Likewise, he gathered his compatriots in sorrow and hid away from the eyes of the Empire for a not short time, waiting for the right time.

“The ceremony has been prepared… … . All that remains is to secure enough sacrifices.”

That’s enough.

If blood comes down, there is nothing to fear from the professors of the academy anymore.

In exchange for their loyalty and the success of the ritual, the Blood Tree will grant their wishes.

collapse of the empire.

“The time has come to correct all deception. Disgusting Emperor!”

The hateful imperial castle will collapse.

The revenge against the Emperor will be complete.

Watching it, they will praise blood.

“Everything is fine… … . hmm?”

The reason why his smiling face hardened as he dreamed of the time when his long-cherished wish came true was because he felt something out of place.

He was the first to throw off the human frame, unlike other blood-lovers.

Unlike other compatriots, he has a clear view of the situation throughout the forest.

The place where the demonic energy of the bloodline extends is his eyes and skin.

“The dryad’s oppression is lifted?”

Tree fairies imprisoned to distort the forest.

The seal that bound the tree sprites and altered their powers was broken.

As a result, the miasma of the forest weakened and the power to disturb the senses weakened.

“The loophole in the seal… … . No, it can’t be! It couldn’t have been!”

someone’s misfortune.

And that’s not all. Something that had freed the tree sprites had invaded, abominably, right into the Blood Tree.

“What kind of guy are you!”

He was enraged at the fact that there was someone interfering with his plan, but he managed to calm his anger.

“… … Young dogs of the Empire?”

Unbelievable.

It was only three kids who broke in.

However, the children overwhelm the monsters and start a rampage.

In the Spiritual Temple… … divine power? Then, what does it mean to be the leader of the church?

“Is it a coincidence? Did you come all the way here in a short time?”

I didn’t think there would be no resistance.

However, after opening a barrier and disturbing the forest, he arrived here in a matter of hours?

“Does not matter. If it gets in the way, I’ll deal with it.”

Melfrang calls his compatriots together and instructs them to deal with the intruder.

You don’t have to be captivated.

“no… … . It doesn’t matter if it’s just one guy.”

Three intruders.

Elemental Commander and Priest.

and… … .

“… … A young man who uses demonic spirits and serves the devil. … … Is it a black magician?”

Recognizing the existence of a boy practicing black magic, Melfrang slightly changed the order.

I should be able to use that.

He evaluated the black magician boy as if he were eyeing it.

“Are you a kid who pretends to be a dog of the Empire without knowing anything? … … If so, all you have to do is teach me.”

* * *

As soon as they notice our intrusion, the Blood Trees immediately rush out to intercept.

“As Xian said, this place was the den of monsters.”

“… … Xian, what are you going to do?”

“Take care of everything. There is no need to leave a single one behind.”

There is no objection.

No mercy needed.

What kind of consideration do you give to those who have abandoned human duty and life?

‘More than anything, it’s because it’s an experience point.’

You need to develop more strength.

The probability of clearing increases dramatically by raising even one level.

“Let’s wipe them all out with maximum firepower and go.”

It was the moment I was trying to gather demonic energy to wipe them out myself.

“uh?”

My chant, which had been cast, was cut off once.

“uh? for a moment?”

It’s because I noticed a different sign.

“You will be dealt with by this old man. bantling.”

someone’s voice.

It’s the kind of thing I’ve heard of somewhere.

“… … uh? no way?”

In that brief moment of reminiscing, my sight slightly pulls forward.

There is something wrapped around your waist.

Tentacles like plant roots. It reached out from beyond and caught me.

why me?

“draft?!”

“It’s dangerous!”

Only then do they realize and cry out.

‘It is possible to give up… … . But maybe this… … .’

In that brief moment, having elicited information about this situation, I made a quick choice.

I will not deliberately sever this root.

Because it seemed like he wanted to hold onto me.

‘Sometimes I have to fish.’

Since ancient times, a good fish should let you feel the taste of it without breaking the line.

‘It’s just an opportunity.’

At the same time, the corners of my mouth twitch slightly as I stare at a place that they cannot see.

I was drawn to it by its roots.

‘are you okay… … . It worked out rather well.’

there it is

In the original game, if you recall the actions of ‘Cian’ at the time of Chapter 2, this is also fate.

‘Even if it wasn’t so, I was worried because the route to find him was cumbersome, but it worked out.’

I’d be more than happy if you could take me with you.

If done well, you might be able to finish phase 1 quickly.

* * *

how much was it pulled

I was nervous inside that I might bump into a wall, but the roots skillfully snatched me up and took me to a certain room while avoiding obstacles as if knowing well the structure of the complicated hallway.

Then throw it as if throwing it away.

“Well, you’re even rough with invitations.”

There was no need to panic.

Emily, who had been resummoned, took me lightly and held me, then landed.

“My sister was also surprised. What are you doing to get caught on purpose?”

“What are you doing and what are you inviting me to? Then you must respond.”

“An invitation?”

In fact, I only remembered it the moment I was caught.

The original ‘Xian”s whereabouts… … .

Come to think of it, I wasn’t originally the one solving the case.

Rather, it was the side that caused the incident and harassed the main character.

in short.

“I guess the person in charge here wants to talk to me.”
