Chapter 68: Mel the Fairy

Another World Artemis

In a world where different cultures have developed, coexisting two races have now become one. The Fairy Clan, with butterfly-like wings on their backs, appears similar in size and appearance to modern humans.

Artemis, the land where the Fairy Clan resides, lacks smartphones and electronic devices, but instead, they possess unique technology and resources. The world has a fantasy-like atmosphere, featuring monsters, dungeons, and some minor crimes, but overall, it is undoubtedly a peaceful place.

Now, within the throne room of a kingdom in Artemis, a red carpet is laid out, and luxurious furniture decorates the room befitting a king. Seated on the throne is a man with a moderate amount of facial hair, appearing to be in his sixties if he were human.

Standing before this person is a young fairy girl, with green hair and brown eyes, giving off a modest and youthful vibe, appearing to be in her early twenties.

“At last, the demons have finally awakened… If we’re not careful, this world could be in danger”

“…I am prepared, Melphy-sama.”

“It’s not yet completely certain that this world is facing a crisis. The protective barrier is always active. That’s why, Mel, if you determine it’s dangerous, come back anytime. Avoiding the loss of the world’s greatest fairy, which is you, is crucial… The demons who realized they can’t come to this world will probably head to another nearby world…”

“I understand. I will do my best to exterminate, observe, and investigate the demons within my capabilities.”

“Umu, I’m counting on you…”

“Then, if you’ll excuse me.”

The king, Melphy, spoke with a serious expression, and the fairy girl called Mel bowed respectfully before leaving the throne room.

“Seriously, why do I have to do something like this? Well, I guess I can’t refuse when the king asks me. Ah, I’m so tired… Really exhausted… But, well, I have to go because I told Mom about the impending crisis…”

Mel muttered with a lazy look on her face unlike before. It melted into the air without being heard by anyone.

“And… done.”

The fairy named Mel, before receiving a certain mission from the king.

The demoness, Michelle, muttered as she stood in front of a black battleship. It was about twenty meters long and two meters tall, an incredibly massive size. It could be considered the embodiment of the new Demon Lord.

Michel was impressed but also tired, slumping down wearily after completing the ship.

“You did well! I kinda like the design, you know.”

“…I don’t dislike it.”

The skeletal Bone Saburo also seemed to take a liking to the black battleship and tried to enter, but he stopped and called out to the two.

“…..Oh right, we need to give it a name… How about ‘Demon King Saturn’?”

“Rejected.”

“Rejected. …… Just a regular battleship would be fine.”

“Right, just a black battleship.”

Although the skeletal expression doesn’t really change, Bone Saburo looked somewhat sad.

The slightly lonely Bone Saburo and the enthusiastic Michelle entered the black battleship. Following them, Don also entered.

“Oooohhh!! It’s so romantic!”

“Indeed…”

“I had an incredible level of technology during the war era, but lacked resources. However, with the materials provided by the Demon King, it’s no wonder it turned out this way.”

Confidently, Michelle explained that there were various rooms inside the battleship, including a control room, a training room, a dining room, and Michelle’s private research lab. It was a wonderful ship where various activities, entertainment, and training could be carried out. There were also many other rooms designed in a special way, like magic bags, with a much larger space inside than what could be imagined from the outside.

“For now, we’re setting off… I hope we can break through the ground below, but since you guys can’t operate this thing, just relax for now.”

Michelle headed to the control room alone. There were numerous buttons, levers, and something like a keyboard. Originally, such skills didn’t exist in Artemis, but he alone created everything. He could truly be called a genius.

With practiced movements, Michelle pressed buttons and pulled levers, and the battleship started to move. It began to sense its surroundings inside the ship. The demon world they were currently in…

Initially, Michelle intended to break through the ground below, but…

“It seems like the ground stretches ahead endlessly… We have no choice but to use the ‘Gate.’ Let’s see… this reaction is from Artemis, right? Heh, there’s another world near Artemis… I didn’t know that. Well, I’ll investigate this world gradually. There’s no information about it, after all…”

The magic weapon, Mado-heiki, was specially created inside the battleship. It is a weapon created by the demon tribe. It can sense the existence of the world itself. It can also warp to it. It is a tremendous cheat.

[Izayoi PoV]

It seems that it’s about time for the “monsters” created by the “demon Tribe” and the Kansai dialect-speaking “fairy” Mel to appear in the modern world.

In the first place, why don’t the “demon race” directly go to Artemis? It’s because the fairy named Mel, developed a world’s protective barrier, a magical item that they use.

There were concerns about the potential revival of the demon race in the future, so Mel developed the protective barrier. It requires an enormous amount of magical power, so all the countries in Artemis united to use it. Despite the immense magical power required, the barrier extends throughout the entire world, preventing any intrusion. That’s why the “demon race” has no other choice but to attack the present time since they cannot enter the world.

The items invented by fairies are called “magic items,” and the weapons invented by the demon race are called “magic weapons.”

“Magic items” and “magic weapons” have almost the same meaning.

The only difference is whether it was invented by fairies or demons. And just as “Monsters” are included in Magic Weapons”, Magic Equipment” is also included in Magic items”.

“This is a nice view, don’t you think?”

“Well, I guess so.”

“I didn’t know there was such a place.”

“It’s quite nice.”

The four of them stand side by side, enjoying the view while talking. It is a great place to overlook the town, but thinking about what’s to come makes their hearts heavy.

I don’t want them to fight if at all possible. But only they can save the world.

It’s complicated. I wish I had more cheat-like abilities. I want some reincarnation bonuses.

Even if I were to gain magical power, that alone would not be enough. Eventually, I might become a burden.

As I watch their backs, I think to myself. I like them. Whether it’s as individuals or as characters, I can’t say for sure.

I’m still not sure. But I can say with confidence that I like them.

I will do my best within my abilities, no, even beyond that…

To provide them with perfect support…

I clenched my fist.

I’ll do it. I…

I’ll definitely…

…If I were to compare it to an RPG, I’ll raise them so that they can easily defeat the level 99 final boss with maxed out skills…

“You’re not looking?”

Kikawa Moegi suddenly comes up behind me, interrupting my thoughts. I must have been lost in thought for quite some time. It’s almost 2:59 PM now.

Just a little more. For now, I’ll focus only on the “demon Tribe”…

She pushes me forward. I can see the outlet mall.

And then, suddenly, a large black ring appears above it. Inside is pitch black and can’t be seen clearly. From there, a vampire monster with two fangs flying out of its mouth appears.

The “Monster Dracula” has appeared.
