The Death Mage That Doesnt Want A Fourth Time 73 (2/2)

Kanata’s weakness had been coe for close-quarters combat with skilled opponents from now on

“Oh, it’s just like a miracle… Hannah, Hannah!”

“Father!”

“Thank you so hter!”

Kanata, who had been painfully immersed in the memories from his previous life, caht at his daughter’s safety

“Hey, I have a question Which way do I have to go to find a city?” Kanata asked, realizing that they were speaking japanese

“A city?” thein confusion at Kanata’s attitude and the fact that he hadn’t even introduced hihway in this direction…”

“This way? I just have to go down this highway? The road doesn’t branch at all?” Kanata asked

“There is a se, but you can reach the city by following the larger one…” said the merchant “Did you happen to lose your way?”

“No, I’m not lost anymore,” said Kanata “I’ve acquired transport, equiph food and money for now, after all”

“What do you mean –”

“I’ll start with this Man”

The merchant felt a dull impact

“Kah… Gofuh?”

Before he could understand anything that was happening, his beloved daughter opened her eyes wide as blood spurted from her mouth

“Ha… HANNAAAAH?!”

A rusty knife had been thrust deep into the chest of the hter as supposed to be safe in his arms

“Oh, it pierced deeper than I thought,” Kanata res are?”

“Hannah-san?!”

“What do you think you’re doing?! Why would you do such a thing?!”

Kanata casually watched the girl who had started spas with her eyes still wide open in disbelief and her father as giving a heartbroken scream Astonished, the adventurers raised their weapons towards him

“Why, you ask… Hmm, because her name is Hannah,” Kanata replied “It’s the sauised herself as, so it’s an unpleasant na that the God set up forer, I suppose Haha, how pitiful~♪”

“W-what are you saying?” asked an adventurer in response to Kanata’s words thatafraid

On the other hand, the other adventurer seemed to have decided that Kanata was an enemy to be disposed of

“Die, you lunatic!”

Kanata evaded the spear thrusted at him by the adventurer with the absolute minimum movement required, closed the distance between them and easily reached into the adventurer’s pocket

“What, if this is all you have, won’t h? But just in case, weapons, armor”

“Wha –?! GAHAH!”

Unfortunately for the adventurers, the level of Kanata’s Unar in the army was equivalent to a C-class adventurer’s The two of them, ere a D and E-class adventurer, couldn’t overcome this difference in ability

Kanata was even being cowardly enough to use Gungnir, slipping through the resistance that the adventurers were trying to put up with their weapons and ar them one-sidedly with punches and kicks that made contact directly with their bodies

Before long, the two adventurers were lying on the ground with the whites of their eyes showing

“Even if that girl’s na instead of Hannah, I would have disposed of her after raping her anyway So if you’re bla that she died because you named her Hannah, you don’t have to worry about it,” Kanata told the merchant

The hter had already died due to the knife puncturing her lung, and he was still holding onto her in a daze Of course, he wasn’t thinking anything of the sort

“Th-this… Do you think you can get aith this?! Eventually, the day will coed!” he shouted

“Coaet so serious onyou, it’s fine The God Rodcorte will probably have her reborn as so to do the sament or whatever comes to me, anyway”

Giving a light laugh at the grief and anger of the father who had lost his daughter, Kanata burned thehis clothes, just like he had done to the bandits

“It’sskill, it’ll probably be fine,” Kanata said as he threw the belongings and equipe, got inside and rode towards the city He equipped the -bolt-shaped patterns carved into its handle, which seemed to have been his lucky charm, at his waist

Rodcorte’s careless selection of who to reincarnate was the greatest failure he had ever committed

While reincarnating those who had died in the explosion on the ferry, he had indeed excluded the evil terrorists However, as for the crew and passengers, he had simply asked whether they would accept his reincarnation or not, and had made no effort to select them

Their personalities, dispositions, th and sense of morals Rodcorte hadn’t examined any of these

The criteria of whether they were evil or not at the moment of their death on Earth was far too simple a criterion; it couldn’t even be called an examination

Despite that, despite taking so the n worlds upon them, multiple times

As a result, there were soin such as Amemiya Hiroto, but there were also those like Kanata

Rodcorte hadn’t expected Kanata to perform such acts of violence, either, but… Kanata had already been reborn in Laer able to control his actions, nor could he rely on unstable Divine Messages to convey his will

“This isn’t why I had you reborn in that place, but… No, this is but a trivial problem,” Rodcorte told himself

With Kaidou Kanata’s abilities, unlike Vandalieu, he wouldn’t cause more than a thousand deaths with the acts of violence he co underdeveloped, even Lanificantly influenced by these

“But is he really not planning to acquire a Job, increase his level or learn about martial skills?” Rodcorte wondered “Even if Lambda is inferior in culture and civilization, the people’s individual skills in coin…”

Froto had never been blessed with luck, but considered hi That hy he had believed that with just a little luck, everything in his next plan would go well, he would receive the reward he desired and be added to the ranks of es employed in the Hartner Duchy

But what the hell is this guy?!

As Froto walked towards the Seventh Cultivation Village with the three adventurers, Kasilanced at Vandalieu

There was currently a co in the Hartner family of dukes The head of the family was still alive, but he was bedridden with illness, causing him difficulties with his official work He had two sons who possessed the right to succeed him

The eldest son Lucas’s mother was the duke’s concubine He was an extraordinaryas the leader of the Knights’ Order, and he had tremendous support from the Hartner Duchy’s army

The second son Belton’swith domestic affairs, had the support of overnment He was expected to make further developments in the Hartner Duchy if he were elected

Normally, it would be ideal if Belton succeeded the faal wife, while Lucasthe army, whose presence had increased due to the Hartner Duchy becoainst the Amid Empire

However, the way of thinking that each brother possessed did not match the other’s

Belton, the second son, believed that defenses against the Athened while efforts were put into doainst the Empire’s weapons That hy he had sent the troublesoees in the cities, ere the priions under the pretense of cultivation, while in fact this was little ees to fend for theee numbers inside cities

He had sent the inhabitants of the cultivation villages that had failed to the slave-runsupply of then garrisons

Lucas, the eldest son, advocated that efforts should be placed in retaking the Sauron Duchy in the naaining glory for the Hartner Duchy For this reason, he believed that the refugees, the pri public order, should be conscripted and used as disposable, low-grade troops while sinking funds into the arular soldiers, leaving the uards and adventurers

The two plans were polar opposites of each other, and because each brother believed that their own plans were for the good of the Hartner Duchy, they were having a dispute This had caused a division within their supporters and those who stood to benefit from the execution of either plan into separate factions

Froto’s viewpoints were far-biased towards Lucas’s side He had suffered defeat in a power struggle within the Mages’ Guild, one day, one of the hts’ Order had called out to hiotten by everyone The knight had told hi for so to be a priest of Alda

Despite being a plan to siees to fend for the unexpectedly well Only one of the seven cultivation villages had been abandoned, and though there were differences in prosperity between the other six villages, it seemed that they would last for at least five more years

If a cultivation project that had been designed to failed ended up succeeding, those of Belton’s faction would praise his ability inthat he, who possessed the blood of the duke’s legal wife, would e the duchy far better than his boorish older brother

This alone wouldn’t end the familial dispute, but for Lucas’s faction, it was best for Belton to have as few achievements and as many failures as possible

This here Froto had coo and traveled to a different village froinformation to Lucas’s faction

Gaining the trust of the villagers had been simple Priests didn’t have Guild Cards like adventurers, and there were plenty of wandering priests, so even the church in the city wasn’t aware of his actions

Unlike proper priests and high priests, clergy of the sort, so they didn’t serve in churches and there were no records of them

To take an extre as he dressed like one and possessed the scriptures or h of theic other than of the light and life attributes and was cultured and knowledgeable, it would be even more perfect

The Clergyman skill exists in Lambda, but it is a skill that represents the ability to conduct rituals such as those of purification and the ability to preach If one could feign these abilities, it is surprisingly simple to masquerade as a priest

It probably wouldn’t work in cities where yes want froe, education in reading and writing, preaching and ways to pass the time, such as stories of heroes and saints

And thanks to the inforathered, plans to eh the nurade troops would decrease so Belton’s achieveh of a benefit to do so

But… this guy interfered with everything!

All of the plans had been crude, far from meticulous Froto and the others weren’t experts in conspiracies and subversive activities to begin with If such experts were used, it would be noticed quickly by those of Belton’s faction, which hy people like Froto were being used in the first place

But even so, those plans should have been e to these ses

Vandalieu saved the lives of Kasim’s party and Ivan That didn’t really matter It had been decided that the Seventh Cultivation Village, which was close to the highould be destroyed sometime in the future anyway

Butmerchant, who distributed poison to the Fifth Cultivation Village to wipe the villagers out He failed to poison the hunter named Kyne The spy had been told a date where there was no hunting planned, but Kyne had changed his plans or perhaps the spy had si… Either way, Kyne ca help

Even so, Froto had no way of helping hiers, nor would he even have e the next day when all the villagers were dead and declared that it was an epide incident would have been hushed up without incident

But Vandalieu flew to the village with Kyne on his back, saying that he could cure them

Kyne had been doubtful, but Vandalieu had already healed Ivan Because of this, everyone in the Seventh Cultivation Village assured hi Froto unable deny his ability or stop hi

It was a fool’s errand; even if he did ers at most No, it was reasonable to assume that he would run out of Mana and fall out of the sky before even reaching the village

That hat Froto thought as he insincerely expressed worry for Kyne and Vandalieu, headed out to see what had becoe… and to his surprise, found that all of the villagers were alive They looked soe

Though this was an unbelievable nighted to look happy and exclaim that this was a miracle as he chased after Vandalieu, who had headed for another village Froto heard of Vandalieu’s deeds, wondering if he really was having a nightmare

He cured diseases without reciting any incantations, healed burns and wounds and created ertips (actually, his claws)

He flen from the sky to defeat the Orcs sent by Froto’s co the life of a boy as supposed to die When nobody was looking, he had even created a well that could be used as soon as a pulley and bucket was installed

Even villages that had been supposed to be wiped out by bandit attacks were still going strong There was no doubt that Vandalieu had so to do with this

And in the Second Cultivation Village, Vandalieu purified the poisoned fertilizer distributed by Froto’s superiors and even taught the villagers how to use Goblins as eency rations

There was no other way to describe this as anything other than divine work

Who on earth is this Dhampir? Could he be a spy from Belton’s side? No, if that were the case, he would be Belton’s trus wouldn’t be an improvised spy like me There is no way that such a trump card would be deployed to a place like this, so… is he really soh?

Froto timidly looked towards Vandalieu, only to accidentally make eye contact with him

This guy?! Does he actually suspect me after all?!

“… Is there so?” asked Vandalieu

Froto felt hi out into a cold sweat as he saw his own terrified face reflected Vandalieu’s eyes, which were looking at hi

“N-no, it is nothing,” Froto replied, barely

“I see,” Vandalieu said as he directed his gaze elsewhere

Th-this guy is too dangerous! Froto thought I must report him to Karcan-dono

Karcan was ainstructions Froto and the others, the one who had taken command of this operation

Unlike the spy disguised as a travelingto confirm the results of his work, the ta back to h Once Froto returned to the Seventh Cultivation Village, he would have to leave within the same day and head to the city to make his own report

Despite Froto being so wary of Vandalieu, Vandalieu didn’t suspect Froto at all

Danger Sense: Death couldn’t detect people’s intentions other than those intending to kill him or cause hih to see what people were truly thinking just by looking at them

Even when Froto had thought their eyes uely at the sky and happened to look at Froto by coincidence

Expressionlessness is often er, but Vandalieu’s expressionless was completely empty, like the face of a doll Because of this, everyone who looked at him interpreted his expression differently

If looked at with friendly eyes like those of the villagers, then he appeared friendly If he was stared at with eyes of suspicion like Froto’s, then he appeared as if he was suspecting the viewer

What Vandalieu was currently thinking was soht at least once

I want to becos

Why did he have to ht? Of course, he understood that Kasim, his companions and the priest wouldn’t be able to keep up with him

If he tried to carry them like he did Kyne, this ht lie enough to have four people riding on top of hiust of wind blew or they were attacked by a ht fall off

That hy there was no choice but to walk on the ground’s surface Vandalieu had been staring at the sky, thinking that he wouldn’t have to go through this trouble if he could use a spell that allowed hi multiple people

And then so suddenly occurred to him

Huh? If I ings, I can just grow them, can’t I?

Indeed, if he wanted wings, he could siht of this, Vandalieu wanted to try it out right away, but he restrained himself

It would be iht-attribute ic I’ll try it out after I reach the Seventh Cultivation Village and head for the city with Eleanora and the others
