Even if you succeed in jobless reincarnation and time magic, you must live life to the fullest.

all in all.

And so, we walked towards the town for two days.

The town's silhouette can already be faintly seen on the horizon.

35. Friends

"Rudius! Look! It's a town!"

Alice lay on the rock wall, excitedly swinging her little legs and shouting at me.

You can see it without even looking.

……

Licaris Town, also known as Old Kihiris City.

During the war between humans and demons, this town was the base of the Demon Emperor, Chisilica Chisilis, the gothic-style loli succubus.

The town of Licaris has a very special topography, situated in a depression within a huge crater.

The mountain walls of the crater have become natural city walls, blocking enemy invasions on several occasions. Now they also serve to prevent the invasion of monsters, acting as a natural barrier.

Half of the town center is the collapsed city of Chihiris, said to be the remnant of a battle between the demon king of Chihiris and the demon god Laplace.

to be frank.

Laplace, the demon god, owes much of my immense magical power to its influence.

According to the ancient texts I later learned about, the demon god Laplace seems to be the same dragon king Laplace who has survived from the "Ancient Age of Gods" 100,000 years ago.

However, in the second war between humans and demons, which took place about four thousand years ago.

Laplace, the Dragon King, was torn in two by the God of War.

Then the demon Laplace appeared.

And ever since then, the demon Laplace has basically been killed whenever he is resurrected.

Unfortunately, that's the worst thing.

I happened to be in the gap between the death and resurrection of the demon Laplace.

tsk...

That bastard, the God of War.

That bastard is the reason I can't defeat the gods in my lifetime.

If I find out who the God of War is, I'll definitely teach him a lesson.

And Chishilica...

Hard to imagine.

That idiot who nearly starved to death after being resurrected was actually able to fight Laplace.

Laplace is a powerful being capable of destroying a continent with a single blow.

My impression doesn't match at all.

"Rudy, let's hurry up and get out of here! We should be able to get to town before dark!"

Alice shouted excitedly.

"No, we're going to wander around here for another day."

I said.

"Eh?!"

Both Alice and Rigdal were skeptical of me.

"Because Rachel Rudd can't get in through normal means, right?"

"Is that right?"

"Hmm... I've never been inside. Every time I get close to the city gate, the guards yell and a large number of adventurers run out."

"I can't help it," Rijkaard said with a hint of helplessness.

Alice's face showed displeasure.

But soon, as if she had thought of something, she became beaming with excitement!

"Rudy, Rachel Rudd! I've got it!"

"what?"

"If Rachel Rudd just shaved his head and covered his third eye, wouldn't he be able to easily blend in?"

Alice suggested.

Rachel Rudd frowned slightly.

It's clear he wasn't interested in the suggestion of disguising himself.

But he was also worried about sending me and Alice, two little kids, to the city.

At that moment, I spoke up.

"It's not necessary."

"Ok?"

My voice made Alice and Rigd look over.

Alice tilted her head.

"Does Rudy have a more mature approach?"

"Entering the city is not the primary objective; the primary objective is to help Rajirud clear the name of the Spelud people."

"what!"

Rachel Rudd was instantly startled.

His brows furrowed immediately.

"My efforts to clear my name are none of your business. You just need to think about going home."

“That’s not quite right, Rachel Rudd.”

"What's wrong?"

"This concerns us because we're friends, you know?"

"Children don't need to think so much."

"I'm a little embarrassed," said Rijkaard.

Alice jumped out with her arms crossed over her chest.

"Rigid Rudd!"

"what?"

"Leave this to Rudy! No problem! With Rudy around, everything will be taken care of!"

Even though Alice said that.

But Rachel Rudd still didn't agree immediately.

So I walked up to Rachel Rudd.

“Rigid is our friend, and it’s normal for friends to help each other, isn’t it?”

Rachel Rudd looked troubled.

"Friends and such..."

"Because Rachel Rudd is very kind, he helped us when we first met, which made us want to be his friends."

I bowed slightly in respect to Rachel Rudd.

"……I see."

Rachel Rudd seemed to sigh, and nodded with a hint of helplessness.

"So, what exactly do you want to do?"

"Um……"

I turned my head and looked into the distance.

If I remember correctly.

This area is already a popular spot for adventurers from the town of Licaris.

Let's do it here then.

"please wait for a moment."

I said that.

Squat down and place your hands on the ground.

My magic power has almost fully recovered in the past few days.

The originally dry, white hair gradually returned to its original color.

As for the specific extent of recovery...

Is that roughly equivalent to several hundred Lokishi?

This is all for this moment.

As I thought this, immense magical power surged from my palm into the depths of the earth.

Feel the power of rocks and soil...

"Rumble--"

The ground beneath our feet began to shake violently.
