Satou here In horror and ht process you can never guess present In most cases, there is a reason to these characters' actions, told in the story

However, I think the real scary ones are those whose actions don't have any rhyme or reasons behind them

"--Where is he?"

I arrived at a [Mapless Area] after pursuing the goblin de on the light dot displayed on the Radar

That light dot suddenly disappeared

I've put a marker on the de location displayed in a Empire

He ot out of the shadow space

I broke out of the shadow spaceblue open sky, with a sprawling town under my eyes--I'm currently on top of a steeple in the center of the town

"There"

There's one building with a broken

I jump into one of the ith Flash Drive

"Oh yer' here already--"

The goblin delar juht sight of the de hair as he jumped out

--Dark purple?

Did this derow hair, or did he put on a wig, I'm not sure

He also didn't have the white coat he wore until just now

What interrupted hts was a red explosion outside theand screams of people

I ju eleic all over the places as he jumps from roofs to roofs

To stop this brutality, I shot at the deic Laser

The des at the expense of his right ar-type of Unique Skill

I use fire extinguish ic the derazed by the laser I shot

I had weakened the laser's firepower to decrease collateral dah to prevent secondary daround with Flash Drive, I chase after the des

Apparently this demon lord possesses Ground Shrink skill hi out fire and explosion

The fact that hethose is really annoying

After chasing hie, the deain

--He's done with just setting fire?

I ju some doubts about the demon's lord action

There were souish, but I'd leave those to the locals to take care of

◇

"--What is this guy (de?"

I arrived at another satellite city after passing through the shadow

Chasing after the light dot shown in the radar, I discovered the de ain, I use shadowaway into the shadow space

The demon lord noticed ure seen

When I was about to give a chase, a block of wood rolling aht my eyes

--It's a barrel

Scattered barrels that spread Vaht upon the Vadom flashed on my mind

It's the same barrel

I heard an explosion sound from afar

Looks like the deain

I isolated the debris of the destroyed fountain with space ic

These Vas should turn into ashes after this h, but I had to prioritize saving ti on the sounds of explosions

Whenever I try to use teleport and pull-type spaceGround Shrink during the slightof tiht-based Unit Arrangement is no different froined that a Ground Shrink user who put everything into running away could be this troublesome

The chase this time was easier than before since the deic and sound-only windand such

Just like earlier, after chasing the deh several blocks of the city, he escaped into the shadow once again

That's right, he escaped

I didn't think that he could leap over the blockage I put with shadow ht when he was diving into the shadow, it must have been some kind of Unique Skill

◇

I continued to chase after the demon lord for another five cities and tns

Once, I tried to encircle the de ninjutsu clones, but he i it, thus I abandoned any similar attempt onward

But still, how far does he intend to flee

--No, wrong

I noticed so odd

Why would the Gob demon lord continue to run ahen it's just an Avatar?

He could have just hopped onto another replaceable Avatar body if he wanted to, ould be the point of running aithout doing so

While chasing and preventing the deic in the 13th city, I'oal

What has he done so far?

Set fire to stuff, destroyed a water fountain, attempted to spread the Vas, and surprised the populace with sounds of explosions

Aside from the Vampire Mosquitoes, none of the acts could be fatal to an entire city

--It's weird

He -Head, but he's still a level 99 class dee an entire city in flames like with the old capital if he had just used advanced-rankinto a corner

I went after it

"There's another one over here!"

Black knights with es at the ready rushed in after I turned around the corner

I evaded their assault with rapid usage of Ground Shrink and got back to chasing the demon lord

--Another one?

I see

I didn't connect the dot since the only thing similar was the colors, but the reason why he wasted the roo for clothing similar to Nanashi's

It's actually not the same at all if you look closely, but it should be difficult for ordinary people to tell us apart e're h speed

But this oal is to smear Nanashi's name

He could have just dispatched hoo out of his way and drag ure out this derin and sneer on his face for an instant

While enduring the iic, I used Ground Shrink

The deain when I was just one step away fro irritated

--Don't go after him

I felt like I heard a faint youthful voice while I was entering the shadow
