“……Black magic stone?”
The black magic stone that I succeeded in developing at the end of my research on magic stones in my previous life has a number of properties that are different from ordinary magic stones.
For example, if you let a monster eat it, the monster will grow rapidly. Like the Ancient Treant, it can evolve into a high-ranking species in a short period of time.
But I had never used it on humans. I never even thought of doing that. In any case, it is too inhumane.
“Then this is the result……”
Humans in cages whose body parts evolved and changed continues to scream and howl like beasts.
“Monsters has an enormous amount of magical power. That magical power is being absorbed, and they use it to run the city.”
“……I can’t believe they are using the black magic stone I made for something like this.”
“It’s not just this. There’s a variety of taboo items that the city is researching and using at all risks.”
“At that time, I should have properly disposed of the taboo items.”
I thought my disciples would treat them appropriately, so I left it at that……
No, blaming my disciples is just an evasion of responsibility.
Even though I knew it was dangerous, I did not handle it myself. I just threw it to my disciple and died like that. In the end, this is considered my fault.
I have to settle things myself. Maybe that’s also the reason why I was reincarnated in this era.
“I’m going to go inside that tower and blow up those culprits.”
“I have a suggestion for you.”
“?”
Once we left the restricted zone, we hid in an empty house and decided to hold a strategy meeting there. That’s when Meltera comes up with a suggestion.
“I would like Fana and Anje to remain in this residential area.”
“Why?”
“Hey, aren’t we going to fight together?!”
I thought it was because the two of them are not strong enough to challenge the central tower that is heavily guarded, but it seemed that Meltera had another plan.
“The most troublesome thing in this city is the presence of the Magic Knights. They are a powerful security force specializing in magic combat. No matter how strong Reus-sama is, he will be quite exhausted just by wiping out a group of magic knights who are as powerful as thousand men. There is also a possibility that the perpetrator will be able to escape.”
In other words, it seems that Meltera’s strategy is to reduce the strength of the Magic Knights and others as much as possible.
“I want you two to wait for the right time to go on a rampage in this residential area. You guys should free the monsters in the restricted area. If you do that, the Magic Knights will have no choice but to allocate a large portion of their forces here. I feel bad about using them, but if we leave this city alone, there will soon be many more casualties.”
Fana and Anje agreed to the plan, and they decided to stay.
I made sure to cast a concealment spell on them and made them stay still until they got the signal. Then me and Meltera left the underground residential area and went back to District B, and then to District A.
“I wonder what’s going on with Lill……. 『Hey, Lill, how are you? 』”
『I’m being subjected to a thorough examination. So far, they haven’t found out that I’m a Fenrir, but it may only be a matter of time. 』
She was taken to the central tower and right now, we are communicating telepathically.
『I see. I’ll give you a signal, or if they found out your real identity before my signal, go back to your original form and go on a rampage. Go wild as much as you can, but I ask you not to kill people as much as possible. 』
『Understood』
We have Fana and Anje go on a rampage in the underground residential area, and a Fenrir in the lower level of the tower. This would ensure that the enemy’s forces are completely dispersed.
“This is it huh.”
“Yes. The security here is incomparably stricter than the residential area. Let’s be careful.”
We crossed District A, which is lined with large houses, and eventually reached the entrance of the tower.
