Chapter 33: Using Everything Gained From All Sides

Today's target is a clay golem.

It's a monster made up of soil containing magical power and the body can be sold for a reasonable value.

They have large bodies and it's a quest that is recommended for adventurers to challenge with six or more people because they live in colonies.

「Okay, I stopped it! Kouta, I leave it to you!」

「《Fire》!」

It was weak against fire and ice also because it's slower compared to a Minotaur, it was a relatively easy-to-hunt monster for us.

After I learned that I could replenish my magic, I was now able to use them without worrying.

Today's login bonus was unexpectedly one round of Ice but even so I was able to work without being discouraged.

――That's fine and all.

「Ah, Kouta, another one slipped by」

「Again? A lot of them keeps slipping past the attacks」

There are times when they slip out of fire's range.

Anyhow, since we only have one vanguard it seems it's quite difficult to make the enemies gather.

Anyways, I defeated it with ”Ice”.

「If we had more vanguards we could expand the range, we could get them all to converge together and defeat them all in a single shot, I wonder if we could get someone to help……」

That way I can save more energy and we can fight more safely, as I was thinking so…

「Hehehe, it seems you're troubled, Kouta-san」

Soulas patted my shoulder with an expecting look on her face.

「Uwa……」

「W-What's with that reaction! You should at least try to look somewhat excited! I am devoted to Kouta-san so I think you should be more kinder to me!」

「Ah, yes, that's right. Then I will listen carefully, is there something you wanted to say?」

When I asked, Soulas' bright face seemed to give off a ”listen properly” type of expression.

「If you need another vanguard then leave it to me! I have recently just learned another magic!」

「Hm, seriously? What kind?」

I listened without expecting much, but Soulas puffed out her chest while responding.

「It's called Demon Summoning」

「……Eh?」

Demon Summoning?

「So do you mean that you can summon a demon?」

「That's correct, what else could it be? Ah, as I mentioned before I sealed one so I can use him」

In other words, Soulas is saying she can summon Erigos.

I think that's quite amazing but…

「Is it okay to summon him in this place?」

There are two others here who recognize Erigos' face won't they panic if he just suddenly shows up? And aside from that he might attack us.

「It should be fine I think? Because when I sealed him I also altered him at the soul level. Above all I am the chief of the summoned demon, so it should more or less work out」

「Is it something like that……」

Well, it's true we don't have enough vanguards, so it should be fine as long as she gets the job done.

「Then I'll leave it to you 」

「Yes! This a special summon that only the Demon King can do」

Solas then held out her palm in front and shouted.

「Come! ――Demon Summon【ERIGOS】!!」

At that moment, a black magic formation appeared in front of her.

And from the center of the glowing magic formation, a human figure began to form with electricity sparking about.

The power of that demon is unforgettable aside from that it will become our ally now.

「This will be a tremendous strength――」

Before I could finish my sentence the summoning ended.

What appeared in the middle of the magic formation was a demon wearing a suit with a long cane. But──

「What's this?」

「It's Erigos」

「I can tell by just looking but he's so small」

His body was very tiny.

Approximately 1/10 of what it should be.

Certainly like this he is definitely no threat and no one would think this is actually Erigos himself.

「Hey is this useful?」

「It's alright, because I absorbed all his magic powers all he can do now is attack with his cane」
