chapter 27
The best weapon in the setup (3)
I thought I’d check it out to be sure.
“…the plot shop.”

I stood in front of bloodstains and purchased a past poem by specifying the time of dawn when the massacre took place.
It was in the near past, so it was enough to use only 500pt.
Then, like a scene from a silent movie, an illusion appeared.
The surroundings were in chaos.
Less than ten men, apparently members of the Red Serpent, were swinging their weapons excitedly.
Strangely, the priests and paladins were not able to wield their swords properly.
It was as if all of his body’s strength had drained away.
Not only that, but it seemed like he couldn’t even use his divine power.
Among them, a paladin was seen staggering back with a weapon in hand.
Fearful eyes, trembling lower jaw, and legs seemed to have already lost strength, and there was no strength in running away.
Then, a man slowly walked toward the paladin.
Like a beast hunting prey, I saw a man approaching slowly.
A man with red hair pulled back into a ponytail and an imposing appearance.
According to what Elin had told him, it must have been a man named Isaac, the leader of the Red Serpent.
And I saw the weapon the man was holding in the vision and let out a breath.
A demonic sword created by a demonic dragon with a dark red aura along its black blade.
In his hand was Rukeld, a magical sword of conversion that absorbs the divine power that exists around him and converts it into magical power.
That sword, which had appeared in the hands of the villain in the novel, showed absolute power against the divine power user.
First of all, it was powerful in terms of incapacitating and depriving the user of divine power, and also converted the converted divine power into powerful power dozens of times and made it emit.
How hard the original protagonist had to deal with the sword that sucked Elin’s enormous divine power.
The sword was in his hand.
‘At least the second half of the novel, the Demon Dragon War, should come out!’
In the original work, the knight who was supposed to protect the demon dragon received that sword from the demon dragon, and it was the first demonic sword to appear.
Why is that sword held by that man?
It was at that moment that I questioned.
Tring!
[Find the added settings.
Keyword: Red Snake (2/3)
Details: Rukeld’s former owner]
Added settings?
Are there cases where settings are added even though I didn’t add them?
Feeling puzzled, I narrowed my eyebrows.
Then another system window popped up.
Tring!
[Addition and discovery of settings have exceeded a certain number of times. Your new powers are awakening.
Acquire a special ability, the seeker of setting at LV1.]
Tring!
[The seeker of special abilities and settings adds a setting viewing window system that records additional settings and keywords discovered in LV1. You can acquire new special abilities through specific keywords.]
“This is good.”
I closed the system window and opened my mouth once more.
“Settings window.”
Then, the settings I had gathered so far came to mind.

There are so many settings I don’t know about?
I thought I knew almost everything about this world, and I was starting to feel mannerisms.
what is a set-up
When you learn about these worldviews one by one, you feel the pleasure of breaking your head one by one.
But there’s even such a thing as an achievement window that collects the settings you’ve found out!
I went into Elina’s section.

56. Aim for life by Yuan right before becoming a saint (NEW!) – Additional settings
———————
The existence of Elina was organized like this.
In the default setting, the elements that make up the character Elina were probably automatically created.
Even so, I thought there were too few settings to make up one character.
The rest are settings I’ll have to figure out on my own.
‘This made it a bit more fun.’
I laughed and remembered the current situation.
New powers are nice, but for now… solving this situation comes first.
Wait a minute, shall we find out here?
I went into the Demon Sword Rukeld item.
———————
<Setting View Window>
Demon Sword Rukeld
Preferences (5/5)
A sword forged by a demon dragon by processing its own claws.
This cursed sword that steals the power of divine power users and converts the divinity into magical power, amplifies the power of the absorbed divine power several times. It is to the extent that it can cut down mountains when it absorbs the maximum amount of divine power.
However, those who use this sword will become stronger and more ferocious like beasts at the same time as they become contaminated with the dragon’s magical power.
Conversion of Divinity and Magic
Forged with Dragon’s Claws
Makes the user ferocious and evolves to become more ferocious
In the state of maximum absorption, it cuts even acid
The user becomes the Demon Dragon’s subordinate
———————
“As expected, it will be difficult to deal with.”
If this is the case, you need the strongest sword in the setting.
Even if it wasn’t for the state of mana depletion, if it was a demonic sword before the maximum state, he would have been able to find a way to deal with it.
But now I needed a weapon.
.
.
.
Feeling my head pounding, I came out and explained to the three girls the scenery inside as pure as possible.
“Elina…”
Elin hugged and patted the back of the tearful Elina after hearing the story.
“…so cruel. All of them were really nice people.”
Seeing that, I couldn’t help but feel at ease.
But now, there was something more certain than clumsy consolation.
“I need that weapon even more now.”
As I said that, I started moving.
The second place must have been the Yanta River, which runs through the center of the village.
“If I get that weapon, can I really beat that demonic sword?”
Nias asked anxiously.
Nias, the demon lord, heard the sword I described and immediately thought of the demon sword.
I thought it was Nias who handed it to me, so I deliberately scooped it up, but seeing Nias’ expression now, I was relieved.
I don’t think it’s Nias.
“Are you sure.”
I nodded.
Arriving at the correct spot in the Yanta River, I blew magical energy into the middle of the river.
Then, the shape of the moon was transformed above the river and created a mysterious rune shape.
“Is this the second time?”
In this state, you will surely be able to find all the runes before the night is over.
But that was then.
“As the captain said, he really is here.”
A group of about 10 men came wandering along the riverside.
A large man, pointing his finger, counted us.
Even though his colleagues must have heard that all his limbs were broken, his strangely laid-back appearance seemed to convince him of something.
“one two three four. Really just four little kids.”
“The kidnappers…”
Elin spat out with hatred.
“You brothers and sisters!”
Elina shouted as if rushing forward.
“How could you do such a scoundrel?!”
The men did not answer Elina’s words.
I just laughed mockingly. Elina’s deafening cry seemed to bring joy to them.
“young master…”
Nias came near me and grabbed hold of the hem of my clothes.
Standing in the back means keeping it well.
‘Well, he’s a common villain.’
I thought so and stepped forward.
“Haven’t you guys heard of wizards?”
I stepped forward and said.
Then one of the men said, also with a mocking laugh.
“But magic doesn’t work. Can’t you see this too?”
What the man lifted was a black jewel.
I immediately recognized the identity of the object.
It is a stone that can prevent the manifestation of low-level magic within a certain range.
All magical effects within that range lose their power and disappear.
Although rare, there may be slaves who can use magic, so it is a good item for slave traders to have.
It’s not strange to have it.
Now that my mana had been exhausted, that was a threatening thing even to me.
You won’t be able to break your arms and legs with formless wind magic like before.
“You understand now? you can’t use magic Then you’re just a kid. Now you will pay the price for your arrogance.”
As the men said that, they began to build an encirclement to prevent them from escaping.
The girls gathered around me and stood guard.
“Uh, how are you doing? Are you really bad at using magic?”
Nias asked, looking around.
Shivering like a puppy wet in the rain.
It would have been convenient if Nias quickly recovered his magic as a demon lord.
Well, even so, as long as he is hiding himself as the Demon Lord, he won’t have anything to show in front of me.
“What do you do?”
I hugged Nias’ shoulders and pulled him toward me so that he could reassure himself.
It was cold, but Nias was definitely warm.
It is a living hearth.
“catch!”
The moment when men shout and try to jump in.
“Ouch…?!”
Magic was injected into their faces, and stones the size of a fist were driven in like a catapult.
“You can feed it with stone fists.”
The men who had been stoned one by one withdrew with groans of pain and clutched their crushed faces.
Still didn’t fall.
It seemed that one stone was not enough.
“Did I say only those who are innocent should throw stones?”
Around me, the stones infused with magic slowly rotated and floated into the air.
“I’ll throw it even if it’s a sin.”
until death.
