I Summoned a Max Level Demon by Myself

Episode 14

The place I headed to was one of the training grounds for the Spiritual Art class.

Magic or Spiritual Sorcery must be practiced while actually activating it.

Therefore, a somewhat safe place was needed, and each department had its own practice field.

“Here.”

As soon as you get close to it, you feel a sign of concern.

mana.

But not ordinary mana.

(It’s the spirit’s presence… but this is a bit different, isn’t it?)

Emily muttered incredulously.

Even if you don’t explain it, you’ll know it when you see it.

When I entered the training ground, there was a girl with cat ears, who was quite familiar, concentrating on training.

Celidia.

He closed his eyes and muttered something softly, with no sign of noticing that he was concentrating so hard that he couldn’t hear the footsteps around him.

(Are you going to talk to me like this? Will my sister teach me some good tricks?)

‘… … No, it’s kind of disturbing. And it’s not about work.’

let’s wait More than anything, I want to check it myself.

her characteristics.

Is she really destined for me to intervene?

“… … .”

Celidia, while in a trance, refines her mana and tries to use spirit magic through it.

The large amount of mana that surrounds her body is replaced with the energy unique to spiritism, and emits a strange light.

It glows red, blue, green, and sometimes gold.

Mysterious mana that shines in a variety of colors.

(That’s strange…)

Observing the aura, Emily muttered incredulously.

(Is that spirit magic? … It’s hard for this older sister, who is a demon, to say, but it looks more like the spirit itself than that.)

It was probably when he realized the identity of the sense of incongruity.

(draft.)

‘… … say it.’

(He will fail.)

The moment Emily made this assertion, the flow of spirit power that surrounded Celidia was disrupted.

dismissal.

Hearing the sound of sparks is not an illusion.

“Ugh… … .”

With the sound of enduring pain, Celiadia’s body shook.

‘Isn’t it different from the game after all… … .’

I knew it, but it felt different when I encountered it through the game and seeing it in person now.

The observer becomes strangely nervous.

(What should I do?)

‘It looks like a person is about to fall down in front of me. Can I go back?’

If it was ‘Cyan’ in the game, it would have stayed that way. On the contrary, would you rather spit while laughing at me for being sloppy?

now what if i do?

In the future, the sword will pierce the belly skin.

In this case, it would be better to help.

“… … Emily, help me as I ask.”

She materializes and summons Emily and gives instructions right away.

I approached the swaying Cellidia and quietly held her from behind.

“… … you?”

“I’m in a bad shape right now, let me help you a little. Don’t complain.”

Supported from behind, I reached out and placed my hand on top of Celidia’s right hand.

‘Start.’

At the same time, Emily uses her own skill, Energy Drain, to interfere with Celidia’s mana.

After interfering with the mana of the two, I pour some of my mana into it, take control of her mana to some extent, and direct the flow as it is.

Above all, because of a certain quality of my mana, it helps to correct Celidia’s symptoms a little.

“It was like that. That’s why Xian cared about this young lady. … … Poorly.”

said Emily, convinced and sympathetic.

The unstable sign was caught, and Celidia also let out a breathing sound as if it had become more comfortable.

“… … why? Here it is?”

When you calm down, you will be curious.

Why did I suddenly appear? And above all.

“what… … Did you?”

Even how he helped her.

It just went well.

If you want to tremble in earnest, you need an excuse.

Actions that attract attention are more effective than talking with your mouth.

Right now is perfect.

“Let me start by explaining… … . uh?!”

But there are things that speak louder than words.

What?

hand.

“… … !!”

Celidia thought to grab my shoulder without a word, and then pushed me away.

The force was not strong, but it was pushed as it was because it was not expected.

Celidia looked down at me as if she was pushing me from above as I fell backwards on my butt.

“oh?”

Emily doesn’t even think about stopping it. An exclamation that makes you think that if there was popcorn, he would have taken it out.

“Hey, Miss Celidia?”

“Be quiet.”

The voice is small, but somehow I can feel the pressure.

That’s not to say it’s heavy.

As it is, Celidia touches me with her hand.

It’s not that there’s no evil intent.

‘I think I’ll get some kind of dissection?’

Since Mana hadn’t completely calmed down yet, Celidia’s eyes seemed to shine, like a small beast.

“Hey, little bit.”

“… … also.”

I wanted to say something soon, but my complaint was buried by Celidia’s muttered words.

“Was it Xi’an?”

Celidia looked straight into my eyes and asked, holding onto the hem of my clothes as if I were sitting on it, afraid that I might run away.

“Sian, your black magic… … .”

As if she had finally made up her mind, Celiadia put those words into her mouth.

Words that somehow make me feel deja vu.

“Can you kill a spirit?”

-Do you know how to kill a spirit?

It was similar to Celidia Root’s first introductory line in the game.

* * *

Celidia had different expectations even among the freshmen in the Spiritual Art class.

Just because you like your hair? Or because you have great power?

It was neither.

It was because of some special circumstances she had.

“It’s a way to kill the spirit. If your department professors hear it, will they hold your back?”

Isn’t the basic motto of a spirit sorcerer a spirit with flowers on his head: cherish and love spirits, and move forward with them?

It wouldn’t end with just a sermon.

“are you okay. Are you a black magician?”

“You are a spirit sage.”

Well, I know Celidia’s situation is somewhat special, but it’s ridiculous to actually hear it.

“so… … I know?”

“First of all, if I were to answer, I would have to say it was absurd.”

If you ask if there is a way to kill spirits in black magic, you should say no.

“In terms of compatibility, it’s an established theory that spirits don’t like black magic.”

Let’s summarize the simplest matchmaking relationship.

Spirit is black magic. In short, it is weak against the demonic energy.

Black magic is weak against divine power.

Holy power is strong against black magic, but has no effect on spirits.

It gets more cumbersome if you go into a little more detail, but the simplest s*x relationship can be said to be like this.

“But if it’s fatal to the spirits, it’s a bit silly.”

“… … ?”

“Human beings get burned if they hold a candle to their bare skin.”

“huh… … .”

“Then burn a mountain of firewood and jump into it and you’ll die.”

“maybe?”

Die. usually die Well, there are people who don’t die in this world, but they’re strange.

At least I will die.

“You don’t say that fire is a human weakness, right?”

So is spiritism.

“… … It doesn’t work.”

Somehow Celidia seemed a little disappointed, her ears drooping slightly.

“Can you tell me why? Why do you ask me that?”

“It was when you first radiated demonic energy in class.”

Celidia began to tell me why she started watching me.

The first day of magic theory class.

A feat I showed during the class where I demonstrated how to stack magic stones and control the mana.

Manipulating the mana around me, accepting it, changing it into demonic energy and releasing it.

At that time, Celidia looked at me in surprise.

“The mass of spirits were frightened.”

“… … Well, first of all, it’s a match that I don’t like.”

Incidentally, I currently have no elemental sensitivity. It is possible to open it if you take a skill, but there was no reason to do that right now.

because the efficiency is bad.

In particular, black magic and spirit magic do not have good compatibility, so it is difficult to achieve a mutually beneficial effect.

“I’ve seen other warlocks before. Even in the guild in the city.”

“It’s not that hard to see.”

“But the spirits are not frightened by their black magic.”

Is it because they are lame?

“And Xian, you interfered with my mana.”

Even in the game, the event occurrence condition of the Celidia route can be defined as follows.

1. Raise black magic and alchemy systems above a certain level at the same time.

2. However, close combat skills should be below a certain level.

3. Tame a familiar with the race name Demon or Demon.

The conditions for entering each heroine’s route are not disclosed even in the official guide.

The above condition was verified by users numerous times and found the most probable case.

‘Celidia’s condition is already well known, so there’s no doubt about it.’

But I couldn’t say it was easy.

The problem is that in the game days, if you raise the black magic class, the event trigger condition is met, but since you trained black magic separately, a contradiction occurred that the basic favorability was lowered, and it was said that it was difficult to restore the favorability.

Well, I don’t intend to obsess over likability, so that’s fine.

‘I didn’t mean to… … . Because the conditions are right for now.’

I took black magic and alchemy, and I have talent. Above all, he enlists a succubus and takes him with him.

Wow! How did you become the right person?

“When your hands touch… … .”

“When it touches you?”

“… … no.”

Celidia, unwilling to say something, reversed her words.

“I was sure you were suitable.”

“You don’t think you’ll understand if I say that, do you?”

“… … huh.”

lack of explanation

There is a way I can expose it, but if I do that, I will be suspicious.

It’s not like you’re going to play a fortune teller, isn’t it scary if you’re overly magical?

The best thing is to say something about yourself.

“Can you keep it a secret?”

“It’s hard to say that your mouth is heavy, so I’ll say it like this.”

I laugh like a joke.

“I have no friends to brag about.”

I’m lonely, so I’m only hanging out with a contracted succubus.

uh? For some reason, tears come to my eyes.

“… … .”

“I’m joking, and I feel uncomfortable about you too.”

It’s not a lie. Indeed, Emily felt a sense of incongruity and informed me of it.

Even if you know the information, it is meaningful just by directly observing it.

be a reasonable basis.

“… … Yes, I will tell you.”

As if determined, Celidia confided to me the idiosyncrasies about herself.

“I have a mixture of spirits.”

It is not an ordinary beast of mixed blood.

In her body, unique elements that were not originally allowed to dwell were fused.

Spirit Chimera.

That could be said to be the specificity of Celidia Milonil.

* * *

It is not uncommon to hear the word chimera.

By mixing the factors of living organisms, a species with a composition that can never be born as a natural species is created.

that’s a chimera

“It is generally said that a chimera is a creature or a mixture of a human and a creature… … .”

People who are fascinated by taboos that cross the line sometimes overdo it.

Are creatures the only realms they can handle? with a stupid idea to do.

“I heard rumors that certain warlocks and elemental spirits joined hands to commit a taboo.”

Elemental wizards pursue more perfect elemental magic, and warlocks also want to produce more solid results with knowledge.

Even if it is knowledge classified as taboo.

It is an event called ‘taboo winter’ due to the setting.

It must have been called that because it was during the Imperial Winter that their laboratory was discovered and destroyed.

“Is it a question of whether it is possible to mix spirits and humans?”

“huh.”

Originally, there can be no

We are creatures that exist based on our bodies, and spirits are beings that are purely composed of mana.

“I heard that all the researchers involved were executed… … . I heard that the result was also a failure.”

“It’s a failure. … … I am the failure.”

They stole orphans from the Empire and children who seemed to have the slightest potential and used them for research.

“The elements of the spirits are said to be fused in a part of me.”

Celidia pressed her hand to her chest and said.

There can be no hybrids between humans and spirits.

But the instigators of that research pushed the impossible with madness.

A whopping 1,000 spirits were summoned and sacrificed, and the result was crushed into a girl.

for being the most talented.

(…In the past, there were not a few humans who tried to swallow demons and become demons themselves.)

Emily, who was listening, also muttered in a slightly annoying tone.

(How stupid.)

And the victim, Celidia, controls the spirit mixed in her body.

“You want a way to get rid of the elements of the spirits that are mixed.”

“… … One day I won’t be able to handle this.”
