181 177 stories. Huh? Want some?

Mr. Gilmouth and his master reunited, maybe five minutes.

I don't know, Mr. Gilmouth feels a little old.

It's your fault, I'm sure.

Still, Mr. Gilmouth will be polite to his master, too.

Mr. Druid is basically polite, too, and he just has vegetables sometimes.

"Master, that's about it. Gilmouth will be useless."

"Oh, my God, that's pathetic. What if I can't say this back?

No, I don't know if it's possible because Gulbal hasn't been able to handle it.

I'm trying, so I think I can give you a little backup.

Or is this how to support you as a master?

I see the master's face all the time.

Sounds like a lot of fun.

"So, are the top adventurers wiped out?

"... ha, I honestly don't know. It's the third day I've lost my voice."

Day 3….

The problem is getting bigger than I thought.

When the top adventurers returned, they assumed that some solution would be found.

No way, I never thought I wouldn't come home.

"Then I guess you're thinking of your next hand"

…………

Mr. Gilmouth gives a harsh look and shuts up.

Don't you have the next hand?

Or rather difficult?

"Gilmouth, I'm telling you, don't get involved."

Mr. Druid spits out words in such a voice that he has never heard of them.

It was so different that I didn't know whose voice it was for a moment.

"Oh, I know. I don't want to be a scrap."

Involve?

Crumbs?

I don't know, but it seems pretty difficult.

Hmm, I wish I could help you... because I'm weak myself.

When it comes to doing something, you will rely on Ciel.

That's everything, too.

No way, I need to help you with something I can do myself.

"What? There's nothing you can do in this situation."

"Master, this is all I can't give in"

Mr. Druid's harsh eyes stare at his master.

The Master seems a little surprised by that gaze.

I took a slight breath and nodded, "Okay," you wouldn't know why.

... My father, he's cool.

I blush my head to say a few words, but let's stop now.

Later, let Sora and Flem hear it.

"Oh, yeah. I found Ivy funny."

No, it's funny...

And I think there are other people who have noticed.

"What is it?

"Have you looked into cases where demons become violent?"

"Yeah, sure. It was a fairly long time ago literature, but there was something I could determine to be a similar situation, but I couldn't use it."

"What's life expectancy?

Mr. Gilmouth sees his master with a questionable look.

"That's right. It's that half-way piece of literature. The demon's name, or even the details, would have helped with this one. Why such literature exists"

Is that how you interpret it after all?

"Look, Druid, this way of thinking is normal. Ivy's a little different."

"Master...... not at all. Huh."

Master, I don't feel like now is the time to prove it.

Mr. Druid is shuddering, too.

"What is it, since just now? And Ivy noticed something."

"A different interpretation of that literature."

Mr. Druid pinches his mouth before his master says anything.

I'm sure if you're a master, it's because you pinch extra words.

"Different interpretation?... I don't know. What's that supposed to mean?

"It wouldn't have written any information identifying the demons, would it?

"Oh, that's why I thought it was an unusable literature, isn't it?

Ivy thinks life expectancy is important.

"Lifespan?"

Mr. Gilmouth looks at me, so he nods and gives his consent.

"That's right. I was wondering if any demon that died in its lifespan would have the same phenomenon. So I didn't dare write anything that would allow me to identify the demons. And it's written in such a way that it doesn't even identify the demons that have become violent."

"I mean, any demon could be affected, so I don't have any demon information"

Mr. Gilmouth with a slightly surprising look.

"I see, then that way of writing literature also makes sense... well"

Mr. Gilmouth has come up with something.

If this makes a difference in my interpretation, I guess I'm sorry.

"If so, what does the solution mean?

Yes, that's the problem, isn't it?

Ferocious by eating dead demons in their lifespan, which means there should be no more dead demons there.

Yet they burn demons that have died in their lifespan where the solution lies.

I have no idea what that means.

"That's right ~. I don't know where it is"

I feel that whoever wrote this literature has only written important parts so as not to create misunderstandings.

I mean, the solution, too, should be a succinct way to write it down.

"I ate it and you still have it? I ate... haven't you actually eaten?

"Ivy, what's up?

Hmm?

Have you spoken the words in your head?

"What is something that won't go away if you eat it?

"... uh, naked?

"No! Er..."

That was a bad way to ask.

I don't know how to ask...

"You ate it, and you burned it, and you didn't lose it, did you? Actually, isn't there something about a dead demon instead of a carcass?

Yeah, if this is it, do you manage to get through?

But I can't think of any reason why you didn't write something about it in the literature.

"I see, you can also think that way. Come on... Ivy's idea is interesting."

Looks like this guy's turned out good, even though I don't care.

"Holy shit. I say don't stare at me so much. The Druid guy."

Hmm?

Your master says something, but your voice is too small to hear.

"Master?

"No, it's nothing. Can't you come up with something better than that? You guys."

Mr Gilmouth and Mr Druid are taking it seriously.

I think about it for a while but shook my neck to the side.

The master also sighs loudly, thinking about it.

Things that make demons ferocious...... that's hard.

"Is it difficult for that demon to reach its lifespan?

You were just wondering, weren't you?

If you're going to be ferocious with a longevity demon, you can have more examples.

But the literature said it was one of a pretty long time ago.

I mean, it's gonna be hard for demons to reach their lifespan...?

"I don't know the area very well. But any superior demon will be hunted as a bait if he gets a little weaker because it's a weak and forceful world"

I see, if any strong demon gets old, he becomes weak, if he gets weak, he becomes the object of being hunted?

Tough world.

"How long is demon life?

"Life expectancy, literature says, over 200 years."

200 years!

That's amazing, will you survive 200 years?

I guess the longevity demon has a lot of strength.

So old and weak that you won't be attacked.

"Strong demons, they have magic because they're demons, right?

"That's right, it's a monster."

"Right. Um, what happens when the magic of a demon is strong enough to live on?

"Hmm?"

Master tilts his neck.

"The magic power of demons strong enough to live for over 200 years and not be attacked in old age. It's quite powerful magic."

Is there ever a magic overflow from the carcass?

If it overflows.

"You can eat magic."

"" "Huh?

"When you die, your body will overflow with magic, and the other demons who ate it will become ferocious... what a stupid idea, isn't it? But this idea leaves a carcass, so you can solve the problem of burning it."

Oh, my God, you think too much.

"Ivy!"

"Ha!"

Surprised, all of a sudden Mr. Druid screams.

What? I'm sorry.

Did something go wrong?

"Wow, Ivy is. Hahaha, right. Magic."

My master sends me a very impressive gaze.

What, what's scary?

"Thank you, Ivy. Right, magic."

Uh, what's the thanks?

I don't know what that means.

"Speaking of which, there was something in the report about magic. At that time, I processed it as having nothing to do with this one."

Magic?

Oh, you thought of something you ate as magic.

Huh?

Can you eat magic?
