I'm just a demon king who loves to fish anyway season iii

41. The confrontation between the devil and the stone

"I'm already beginning to doubt the reality of this world". Walking along the mountain path, Yuhi, who had heard the story of the village, was really questioning his life a bit. As someone who had lived an ordinary life for seventeen years, you suddenly tell him that those gods and goddesses of the supernatural do now exist, and it does shake the world view that others have always known.

    Granted, he also has this most unscientific loli with him, but he can't help but keep a low profile! A lot of times during the time spent with her, people would overlook the fact that she is not actually human.

    After all, a certain demon king also grew up in a normal human living environment, plus her already imp-like mischievous personality on weekdays she is just too natural and grounded.

    "Well, actually, the crystal thing is already very godly I already know that these things exist, but they are just very uncommon~" Her Highness, who was following Yuhi, also made her own conclusion, compared to Yuhi, who had no idea, she had completely understood what was happening in this village.

    Combined with what the old grandfather had just said, the little devil king also used his magic power to explore and analyze the village in detail, and finally figured out what the strange stone had done.

    The stone was merely amplifying the desires and feelings of the people in the village, and with the guidance of the local earth chakra, managed to bind the souls of the deceased to this piece of Shiji land.

    So by analyzing it in detail, Erolu could probably guess what kind of existence this so-called wish-fulfilling stone was

Although it all sounds very impressive, it is nothing more than a stone that listens to people's inner voices and, through indirect intervention, directs things in the direction of wish fulfillment.

    So while this bizarre stone is said to be able to do many things, it is far from being an all-powerful wishing machine. It is because in essence the stone can only do indirect interference, far from direct influence.

    It is like binding souls, which essentially relies on the obsessions of the deceased and the power of the earth chakra. This stone is merely a catalyst that points the way.

    Compared to a certain demon lord who could even use a conceptual power like time stopping if she had enough magic power. The stone was like a gecko to Godzilla, but not in the same dimension.

At this moment, Eru Yuhi was also on the path between the mountains, heading towards the shrine where a certain evil stone was located. After hearing the reason for the two silver-haired visitors, the old grandfather was quick to inform them of the stone's whereabouts.

    After the destruction of the village once, the villagers were left in awe of the stone. While no one had any more thoughts about the stone, everyone could see that the stone was a double-edged sword.

    In order to prevent the stone from bringing bad words and thoughts to fruition and bringing disaster to the village, the villagers put the stone on a hill quite far away from the village.

    Out of reverence, no one dared to throw the stone away casually. And all the same, there was still something in the villagers' hearts that wanted the sacred stone to bless the village

    The villagers still had some thoughts in their minds that the sacred stone would bless the development of their village.

    So the villagers built a small ancestral hall on the hill, and whenever there was an auspicious day, they would bring various kinds of tributes to make offerings, just for the sake of luck.

    As time passed, the village elders became aware of the danger of the stone, so the fewer people went there, the better. Therefore, the most respected people in the village are the ones who make the offerings.

    So, again, only these people knew where the stone was located. When the person responsible for the stone is too old to do so, the next person is chosen and entrusted with the job.

The old man whom Eru Yuhi visited happens to be the one responsible for this. So he was the only one who knew the whereabouts of the sacred stone, and probably because he had been sheltered by it, he was also the longest-lived man in the village.

    "Hurry up, we all have to get down the mountain before the road gets dark." Looking behind him at a certain loli who was slowly swallowing because of her lack of strength, Yuhi urged helplessly, holding his head.

    Honestly, if it wasn't for the difficulty of the mountain path and the safety concerns. Otherwise, he could have carried a certain loli in a hundred-meter sprint, or even dragged her along with him.

    But this completely unexplored mountain road did not allow Yuhi to do so, and he was walking ahead with a short scythe given by his grandfather, while driving the road

    "So you can fly, can't you, Lu? Why don't you just fly? And don't you have the magic power to strengthen your body? Don't save your blue now.

"I can't use it, I can't fly," the little devil said with some unnatural weakness in her voice, and then panted heavily with her hands on Yuhi's back.

    "What's wrong with you? Another attack? I thought you said it wouldn't happen anytime soon..." Yuuhi inquired eagerly, but Erolu cut him off. "Nothing, that piece of shit rock is messing with me . ." Her Highness the Demon Lord gritted her teeth in an unconvincing manner.

    A certain stone was clearly repelling a certain Demon Lord who was also a supernatural being, and the closer we got to our destination, the more obvious it became that this repulsive influence was actually affecting the earth chakra to repel me? If I didn't have enough magic power to fight you, I could have followed the direction of the energy and smashed you with my magic power, right?

"A mere stone, how dare you be so arrogant..." Erolu felt that her dignity as a demon lord was being provoked, but there was nothing she could do about it.

    The king of the demon race with insufficient magic power was indeed powerless against the strange stone that controlled the earth's veins.

    "Why don't I carry you?" Yuushi offered his opinion with a worried look, although it was a bit dangerous, it was better than this girl being in a difficult position all the time. "No, I can hold it." Sheltering her body with not much magic power to slow down the effects of the rejection of the earth chakra as much as possible, Her Highness the Demon Lord was now already thinking about how to get back at that broken rock when she saw it later.

Unless it wanted to break itself to pieces, there was no way it could use the earth's veins to repel it again when it arrived nearby. Through the brief encounter, Erolu was able to determine one thing - this broken stone's power relied entirely on interfering with foreign objects, and its own power was completely stretched to an extreme.

If she hadn't still needed it and had something to confirm, otherwise Erolu would have dried and shattered it through the air. It was such a pull across that Her Highness was even afraid she would break it with more magic.

    As an expert in this area, the vengeful little demon lord had already brainstormed a hundred ways to torture the broken stone. So, what's your problem with a rock? --by Yuhi
