Helmut

Episode 492

[How can I shorten it?]

At that moment, something suddenly appeared in Elaga’s mind. He had once transformed into a small creature.

But at that time, I prayed for Heike’s magic. Monsters cannot use magic.

Mute said as if he had sensed Elaga’s thoughts.

[I can do it.]

[How?]

[I am a being close to the mental body, so I can use magic energy to do things similar to magic.]

Then he added doubtfully.

[Maybe you can do it. Trust me and leave it to me. There is no need to resist.]

I felt the Mute that remained in the Demon World climb onto my body.

Demonic energy swirled in the narrow space. I felt a sense of alienation and repulsion, as if the guy was extracting magical energy from me. Elaga endured it with great difficulty.

Soon, a storm raged as if the whole body was being destroyed.

You can only move forward or step back.

But Elaga has already decided. To move forward. To go back. To the world he originally belonged to.

[It’s done.]

As if Mute had done something, the pain soon subsided and my body became easier to move. Elaga instinctively realized this. We have to get out of here quickly.

There was tremendous pressure with every step he took, but it wasn’t enough to crush him.

Elaga took one step at a time. Toward the end. And at some point, the scenery before my eyes changed.

He fell out of the air and landed on the floor.

[Hello.]

Was it successful? Elaga looked around. An unfamiliar landscape. However, it was in the mountains with lush greenery. The fog was thick and it was a little dark everywhere.

But clearly this was the world he was in.

I’m back! Joy bloomed in Elaga’s eyes.

At that time, I heard Mute’s voice. It was above his head.

[We have arrived. thank god. If I had failed, we would both have died.]

[Was it that dangerous?]

Elaga, who had followed Mute’s words without thinking, narrowed her eyes.

[But it was successful. That’s it.]

[What about the gap that leads to the Demon World? Isn’t it dangerous if it’s open?]

If the door to the demon world opens again and the demon lord appears, it will be very difficult.

I couldn’t feel any energy around me. Remnants of demonic energy, a twisted space, and a chaotic atmosphere.

Perhaps something happened nearby that opened the gap, but there was nothing visible.

[We have crossed a very narrow gap that was opened in the form of a summoning spell. Our crossing was almost a decision. So it is completely closed now.]

[Summoning magic?]

[Yes, I guess it was the work of a warlock who tried to summon the Demon King.]

Elaga also knew that when the Demon King appeared, people called warlocks began to appear.

However, I don’t know how much time has passed, but it must have been quite a while. What on earth are those Helmut guys doing that they can’t even stop something like this?

Elaga asked, grumbling inwardly that the sacrifice was meaningless.

[Then where is that warlock?]

Elaga looked around again. I thought I would say thank you to that cute guy who summoned me back to this world.

Of course, after saying thank you, I have to send it to the other world.

[well? As it was, we should have fallen in front of the warlock. But I can feel the traces of space collapsing. I guess he succeeded in casting the summoning spell, but there must have been a problem after that.]

[At most, he summoned him and then died?]

[Maybe.]

[That’s good.]

Elaga was happy, saying that things were going smoothly. Just as he was about to move, he realized something.

[I have become a cat!]

[Because I have become small enough to pass through the gap.]

[What should I do to become big again?]

But only silence returned from Mute. Elaga was overcome with an ominous feeling.

[what! Why are you still?]

[As you know, I am a being born from the sprout of darkness. We dominate humans and even change their bodies to suit the devil.]

[So!]

[We reduced your body to a small size using a similar principle.]

Elgar roared.

[Are you saying you don’t know how to go back to the way things were? You parasite that will kill you!]

I felt very deceived. In this case, I shouldn’t have followed his words and jumped into the gap.

Having to lose your original majestic appearance and live as a small cat! Is there such a thing as this?

Mute answered solemnly.

[It might be possible if I gain a little more knowledge. Please wait.]

Elaga was very upset and angry. It wouldn’t be cool to kill this treacherous guy named Mutt right away.

But if he changed himself, it might be possible to change him again. That possibility captured Elaga’s reason.

Although there are people called archmages, there is no guarantee that they will be able to help.

Anyway, Elaga returned to her hometown. He took a deep breath. Fresh air, different from the air of the demon world, rushed deep into my lungs.

He no longer felt like an alien being. Elaga belonged where I belonged. That feeling was new.

‘It seems like this place is far from Pahe Forest.’

I don’t know where else to go. First, we need to find Helmut.

Linosa? Or to Baden, where Sarah and Susan are?

Elaga was lost in thought. He does not know the geography of the human world. It was only in the forest of Pahe, but after coming out, I followed Helmut the whole time. All I remember is the place name.

I could read the map, but having to move around in this cat form was also a big problem. Their legs are short, slow, and their field of vision is narrow. Because it’s small.

‘It won’t be a threat to humans, so there won’t be any trouble.’

Elaga decided to think positively. I came back and that’s it. Now all you have to do is find Helmut.

However, there was one problem.

[You said you liked the Demon World, so why did you follow me?]

Mute, this dumb guy. He has already become independent.

After changing Elaga’s body, she would have been able to remain in the demon world, but she followed.

Mute responded quickly.

[I want to meet the main body.]

[Why again?]

[Because he doesn’t know my existence.]

Mute said shyly.

[I want to make my existence known.]

It felt like meeting a brother I lost and didn’t even know existed.

However, Elaga’s reaction was extremely cold.

[I don’t think Helmut would want to know that you’re just a piece of shit he made.]

Above all, even though this guy has a will, he comes from a dark background. If you try to attach it to Helmut again, it will be in vain to separate it.

Elaga hoped that he would remain in the demon world.

But unfortunately, that didn’t happen. The guy followed and Elaga wondered if she could take him to Helmut. Because he has become stronger than when he was with Helmut.

Mute responded as if he had read Elaga’s mind.

[I have already become an independent entity. The situation you fear will not happen. In Helmut’s current body, I am no different from an outsider. Even if I decide to dominate him, his vis will repel my existence.]

[Okay, Helmut will take care of it. Rather, how do you think I should find Helmut?]

Since this was happening, Elaga decided to rely on Mutt’s abilities to her heart’s content. He’s like a parasite, but he’s becoming more useful every day.

[You have to go to the wall.]

[That thing blocking the forest of Pahe? Something made by humans? Is Helmut there?]

[There will be Helmut or his companions, or at least someone who can contact them.] It

is a place to deal with the monsters pouring in from the Forest of Pahe. Elaga was impressed.

[You’re a smart guy!]

Heading to Pahe’s Forest was easier than going to Rinosa or Baden.

The senses of Elaga, who grew up there, will guide you to the Forest of Pahe. Because he is the ruler of the area.

[You will have to run diligently. You are a small cat now.]

[Okay, here we go!]

Elaga kicked the floor and jumped up.

Although he was a small cat, his body contained more demonic power than before he left this world. Because it didn’t lose much while passing through the gap.

In this way, Elaga matched Helmut’s destination regardless of his original intention.

Of course, the one who arrives first will be Helmut. They would enjoy the joy of reunion there.

“Hey Helmut!”

Helmut and Area used their magic to reach the barrier faster than Asuka and Charlotte.

Xian waved his hand happily and welcomed them.

“long time no see. how have you been? “You’ve been traveling all this time.”

“I went on a trip. But it wasn’t a situation where I could enjoy it that much.”

“I guess you caught a lot of monsters? “I heard they’re appearing here and there these days.”

“Yes, and I caught a warlock right before I came here.”

“Tell me about that. “What kind of warlock are you?”

At that time, Area opened her mouth.

“The warlock tried to summon a being from the demon world.”

“A being from the demon world? “It won’t be easy.”

“The warlock was a talented person. “If we had discovered him just a little later, we would have succeeded in summoning him.”

Area briefly explained the warlock incident to Sian. And then he spoke to Xian’s frozen face.

“We need to look at these potential risks, not just protect the wall. “There is a risk that a warlock who could open a door to an unknown world of magic might secretly cause an accident.”

“That makes sense.”

Sian nodded. He shifted his gaze to the Forest of Pahe beyond the wall and muttered.

“But before that, we have to resolve the crisis that is at hand.”

“Baharek.”

Helmut’s eyes followed him.

“Ygrel told me. “Baharek will attack with monsters.”

“It’s not a big problem.”

It was a calm but confident tone. Sian grinned.

“Yes, we defeated the Demon King, so would Baharek be a problem? There is me and there is you. Oh, and Area too.”

Alea’s eyebrows rose. Because I really didn’t like putting her last.

However, she was not yet an archmage and could not be said to be skilled enough to be on an equal level with them.

The problem was the subtle discomfort caused by the fact that Sian always took second place behind her. I was not happy with the reversal of the war. Xiando uses it to scratch.

Helmut, who had become a little more aware, hurriedly spoke.

“Did you call someone else too?”

“Yeah, Asuka and Charlotte will be here soon too. Everyone will gather. “Let’s get this story out of the way.”

Sian smiled. It was a smile that did not contain any sense of crisis. Helmut nodded quietly.
