Chapter 82 Demon Lord, Meeting A Monster And Ascending To Heaven
In Leaf Chemist's hometown, the witch of Dead End Village, Merlin, gave a task to the Demon Lord Vandesdelka.
"Well, let's go."
Vandesdelka currently looks like a beautiful Holy Maiden.
It's a magic body created by Merlin.
Since he doesn't know where that witch might be listening from and for the sake of disguise, Vandesdelka decided to change his way of speaking like a girl (at least in public).
"Let's make sure not to get close to Leaf."
The task given to him by the witch is to investigate an organization cooperating with evil god.
In other words, there is no need for him to be near Leaf.
"He's from that monster village. It's obvious that nothing good will come out of getting close. Let's make sure not to get involved. Let's make sure not to get close."
As Vandesdelka said that, he approached the capital city... and that was the moment.
"Huh? What's this tingling sensation? AAAAAAAHHHHHHHH!!!!"
Underneath, Vandesdelka's body began to disappear!
"EEEEEEK! NOOOOOOOO!"
Vandesdelka collapsed on the spot, looking at his feet.
Gradually, his legs were disappearing.
"What is this!? What's happening!?"
It's a repellent (cat repellent) made by Leaf.
He had scattered it around the capital city area.
If one is a demon, the moment they step in, they'll vanish due to an advanced holy magic.
Since the Demon Lord is also a demon, this repellent is highly effective.
However, unlike other demons, the Demon Lord has a high magic defense, so he won't won't be annihilated in an instant like the spider demon.
Still, it's extremely effective. The body is disappearing from the feet.
"Ah... I'm... starting to feel... weirdly good..."
He is floating... his consciousness is drifting away. Death was approaching.
"Ah... I'm... dying..."
And at that moment...
"ARE YOU OKAYYYYYYYYYY!"
Something fell from the sky. An angel, perhaps?
No... it's a big... cat?
On the back of an unfamiliar giant creature was a small, young-looking boy.
Or rather...
"EEEEEEEEEEEEK!"
With the appearance of a delicate Holy Maiden, the Demon Lord retched, spectacularly.
"Are you okay?"
"NO, NO, NO, NO, NO, NO, NO, NO, NO, NO, NO, NO, NO, NO, NO!"
Now...
He must explain something here.
About the special [abilities] possessed by the Demon Lord.
In the same way humans receive power from goddess, demons possess their own inherent abilities... called [abilities].
The ability of Demon Lord Vandesdelka... is [sixth sense].
In simpler terms, it is the ability to understand the strength of enemies.
It is similar to an Appraisal Eye.
While an Appraisal Eye can rank and reveal detailed information hidden within an object, the sixth sense can accurately estimate how strong the object is (strong or weak for oneself, and to what extent).
In the case of the Demon Lord, when encountering a strong opponent, the sixth sense activates, prompting defensive reactions like the urge to flee.
That's why he seemed unwell when in the Hero Village.
Thanks to possessing this sixth sense, the Demon Lord avoided foolish actions like fighting heroes and managed to survive.
That sharp sixth sense possessed by the Demon Lord is saying this.
In front of him is a monster disguised as a boy... no.
It's a killing machine in the form of a human.
"I'M GONNA DIEEEE! I'M GONNA DIEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!"
Meanwhile, Leaf interpreted this as.
"So you got attacked by a monster!"
...and misunderstood that he or rather she for Leaf on the brink of death because she was attacked.
"It's okay! Leave it to me! You'll be fine in no time!"
Please don't come any closer...! The Demon Lord was on the verge of tears, unable to express themselves well due to fear.
In the meantime, Leaf completed the Elixir and made the Demon Lord drink it.
His actions stem from goodwill.
There's [someone] suffering in front of him.
The girl's leg is missing. She's injured. So, he needs to make and give her a medicine...
...without realizing that it's a bad move.
"Ah"
The moment the Elixir entered the Demon Lord's mouth...
WHOOOOOOSH!
The Demon Lord turned into smoke and vanished.
"What!?"
'My lord!? What on earth...!?'
"I-I don't know... She disappeared suddenly after drinking the Elixir!"
Now...
It's must be explained here.
There's an attribute that can be considered the natural enemy of demons: the holy attribute magic.
Within healing magic, there's a tiny amount of holy attribute magic.
In the incredibly refined Elixir made by Leaf, there's a high concentration of this holy attribute magic...
As a result, the Demon Lord disappeared.
(Farewell... farewell... farewell...)
"Oh! Could it be that she's a demon!?"
With that said, Leaf set out to improve the Elixir.
Healing potion was administered with the Divine Healer Staff, which did not contain the Holy attribute.
As a result, the Demon Lord reverted back to his original form along with the disappearing body.
"...Huh? That... huh?"
Why did he come back to life? How? Why? He doesn't understand...
The only thing that is certain is...
"It's all right now!"
"......"
Bubbles popped as the Demon Lord collapsed.
One thing was certain: the man in front of him was an incomprehensibly dangerous being.
