Re:Zero: Starting from the Great Transformation

"Oh oh oh!"

Rudius quickly put down his backpack, took out the Dragon God Orb Wine that he had prepared long ago, and handed it to Mu Ya with both hands.

The moment he saw the Dragon God Orb Wine, Mu Ya's eyes widened.

"This is... Dragon God Orb Wine? Where did you get it?"

"I'm not in a position to tell you this, but this is a genuine product. I hope Master Atofi will like it."

"Of course she would like it. After all, this is... No, before that, let me confirm what your purpose is in coming all the way here. Is it really just to defeat Lord Atofi?"

"How is that possible? Actually, we just want some Socas grass."

"Socas grass?"

"Yes."

"For something like that, you even specially offer such precious wine?"

"That's it."

After hearing this, Mu Ya's head was full of question marks.

After hesitating for a moment.

He couldn't help but ask:

"In that case, what about the declaration of war we received a few days ago?"

"That's a misunderstanding. I never wrote a declaration of war. I'm afraid it was forged."

“Forgery…?”

"Yes, and if I'm not mistaken..."

Ron turned his head and glanced at Rudeus next to him.

Then he said in a deep voice:

"Is the person who delivered the declaration of war a monkey-like demon man?"

"Monkey? Keith?"

Rudeus was stunned when he heard this.

"What are you talking about, Ron? How could Keith possibly—"

"It seems like you know something."

Compared to Rudius's astonishment, Mu Ya frowned tightly.

He did not pursue the question further.

Just a look of headache on his face.

Seeing this, Ron quickly said:

"In short, we have no intention of becoming an enemy of Master Atofi. We came here simply to request a few stalks of Socas grass, and we've even prepared a gift. Please convey this, by all means."

"The problem is, even if I say so, Lady Atofi...sigh."

Mu Ya sighed deeply.

"Lord Atofi knew a brave warrior was about to challenge him, and he jumped up and down in excitement. Even if you say the declaration of war was forged...but you, the brave warrior, are the real deal."

"This……"

"At this point, even if I explain it to Lady Atofi, she won't listen."

Mu Ya frowned and fell into deep thought.

Ron also felt the same difficulty.

That being said.

Doesn't that mean I have to fight with Atofi?

Heroes or something...

It's really a nuisance.

Then again, what's the point of winning this kind of battle?

And unlike Badigandi's chaotic fighting style, Atofei was a notorious fighting demon king even during the Laplace Campaign. His notoriety was known to everyone from the Demon Continent to the Central Continent. After the war, he received the true teachings of the Northern God.

Hundreds of years later, its strength is probably second only to the seven great powers...

It would be fine if we won.

But if you lose, then everything is over.

"no solution anymore."

Just as Ron was thinking.

Mu Ya took a deep breath and made a decision.

He glanced around at the guards around him and said in a low voice:

"Anyway, before Lord Atofi comes here, you two should just follow me to the basement to get the Socas grass. Once you get it, leave immediately."

"Huh? But is this okay?"

"I will tell Master Atofi that you failed to break through the Four Heavenly Kings' blockade and gave up halfway. Conversely, you must also announce the same thing to the public after you leave here... Okay?"

“This, this is really…”

"Can't you?"

"No, thank you very much, please do!"

Ron clenched his fists subconsciously.

He and Rudeus exchanged a glance, and both saw uncontrollable surprise in each other's eyes.

Don't know why though.

However, the situation began to develop in a favorable direction.

It's a good thing anyway.

"Aaron!"

"exist."

"Take these two distinguished guests to the basement to get the Socas grass, and then leave through the back door."

"Yes!"

Mu Ya quickly gave an order to select a confidant from the guards.

Then he lowered his voice and said:

"Then without further delay, please both head to the basement immediately..."

"May I ask why you are helping us like this?"

Rudeus couldn't suppress his doubts and asked.

Mu Ya sighed when he heard this.

"Even in the Demon Continent, there's no reason to resort to violence against those who bring gifts. However, Lady Atofi might find it difficult to understand if her deceased father knew about this... In short, we don't want to make enemies for no reason. That's it."

"I see……"

This is understandable.

The soldier named Aaron stepped forward and saluted.

At the same time, take the first step.

"You two, please follow me."

"Ok."

Ron and Rudeus immediately followed and headed to the basement.

……

The basement of Nekros Fortress is the same as the outside, built with bricks and stones of special materials. Walking in the basement, you can feel a hint of eerie coolness.

The soldier leading the way walked ahead, holding a torch, but the torch's illumination range was limited, illuminating only a small area ahead. Seeing this, Rudeus took out the scroll of summoning spirits and summoned the Lamp Spirit to provide a substitute lighting.

Suddenly, the entire basement was as bright as day.

Only then were the two able to see the entirety of the so-called basement.

It's called a basement, but the corridors on both sides are filled with rooms enclosed by metal fences. It's more like a dungeon than a basement.

Through the gaps in the fence, you can see various items stored in the room.

There were armor and weapons, wooden barrels, iron boxes, and all sorts of miscellaneous items.

One could even faintly hear a low roar coming from the depths of the dungeon.

It's probably a monster imprisoned here.

The monster that can be specially imprisoned is probably no lower than A-level.

Ron and Rudeus looked at each other.

The latter nodded slightly and silently opened his precognitive eyes.

Although the other party doesn't seem to have any conspiracy, it's always good to be a little cautious.

"that……"

As the two were looking around the dungeon, the black-armored soldier in front of them suddenly spoke.

He hesitated for a moment and whispered:

"Excuse me, are you two from the Central Continent?"

"To be precise, it's the Kingdom of Ranoa in the northern continent."

"Really... Well, could you two do me a favor on the way back?"

So saying.

The black-armored soldier named Aaron stopped and turned to look at Ron and Rudeus.

"Actually, my hometown is the Asura Kingdom in the Central Continent. Five years ago, I was bewildered and ran to this hellish place to train myself. As a result, I was forced to sign a contract and become a member of the Royal Guard. If you have the chance, can you tell my family for me that I am safe and that I will be able to go home on vacation in a few years. My family should give me a suitable reward..."

"Huh? But..."

"No problem, leave it to me."

Before Rudeus could finish.

Ron had agreed without hesitation.

"I'll tell your family."

"Really? Thank you so much, thank you so much..."

Aaron became very excited when he heard Ron's agreement.

Rudeus sighed upon seeing this and said nothing more.

Ron is still the same, he likes to help others...

But then again.

It seems that not all of Atuofei's guards are fools like the Four Heavenly Kings. Some of them are unlucky people who were forced to stay...

Think of this.
