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

Then, they continued their attack.

It's no use...

No, it should be useful.

Upon closer examination, these ghosts are merely the lingering obsessions within the gun.

I slowly calmed down and began to feel it.

Feel the most unique magic hidden within the vast power...

"Stop."

I issued the command again.

This time, it finally worked.

All the ghosts stopped moving at the same time, and then, as I intended, slowly planted the spears into the ground.

very good!

"Alice, it seems like it's ready."

I said this.

however.

Alice remained vigilant.

Her gaze passed over the rows of spears lying on the ground and looked into the depths of the cave.

Something is coming from there.

"Gulu——"

I swallowed.

……

That was a guy who wasn't much different from other ghosts.

A phantom figure, holding a trident.

But it was not affected by my abilities.

This can only mean one thing.

It possesses consciousness.

"Rudius, what should we do?"

Alice asked me calmly.

what to do……

If our abilities don't work, should we just use divine strike magic?

That's obviously the simplest solution.

When I want to do it.

"who are you?"

A voice suddenly came to my mind.

It is in...

Talk to me?

"Alice, leave this to me."

"……Um."

Alice nodded and activated her precognitive eye, staring ahead.

I stepped forward and bowed slightly.

“I am Rudius Grerat.”

"Humans... What do you want to gain here? As you can see, there are only abandoned souls here."

"I need your help to forge weapons to fight the enemy."

"Is that so? But please forgive me for declining."

The last ghost spoke coldly.

"Huh? Why..."

"We are a warrior order loyal to the Demon God Laplace. Even if we are abandoned, we will never be loyal to the enemy."

The last ghost said indifferently.

"what……"

I remembered.

That's right.

These tridents in front of us are not from the current Spelud tribe.

They were merely tridents abandoned by their masters during the Battle of Laplace.

These can be called fragments of the soul.

However, their thoughts and obsessions remain entirely focused on hostility towards humanity and loyalty to Laplace.

"Soldiers, take up your weapons!"

"The last ghost commanded."

At his command, all the ghosts raised their tridents once more and aimed them at us.

The battle is about to break out.

All our previous efforts were in vain.

I started thinking about how to break free.

After all, only divine strike magic is effective against ghosts.

My Divine Strike Magic is only at the advanced level...

Alice immediately stood in front of me.

Cold sweat ran down his forehead.

"Rudius, you go now, leave this to me!"

Alice asked nervously.

I'm sorry, Alice.

I will not run away.

I will never let Alice sacrifice herself in front of me.

anyway.

I want to go home safely with Alice.

Even if it's futile, let me struggle a little.

"Please wait a moment."

I used my ability to call out to the last ghost.

"Well, the war is actually over!"

"……it's over?"

"That's right!"

The last ghost was clearly taken aback.

Taking this opportunity, I immediately explained the situation to him.

The demon Laplace betrayed the Spelud race.

After abandoning the original trident.

The cursed magic gun drove the warriors into a frenzy, causing them to kill indiscriminately and commit grave errors.

till the end.

Rajirud's magic spear was destroyed, and he finally regained his senses.

Then, fueled by hatred for Laplace, he joined forces with the dragon god Ulpe to kill Laplace.

And for the next four hundred years, he roamed the Demon Continent.

……

After listening to my story...

The last ghost stood there, stunned.

"Laplace actually... How is this possible..."

"It is what it is."

"...Impossible, who told you all this?"

"Rijrud Speludia."

"..."

I turned to look at Alice.

Then I took her hand.

"Both Alice and I received help from Mr. Rigdrud that allowed us to return to our homeland. The weapon I'm building is precisely to fight against the mastermind behind Laplace who caused all this tragedy."

Everything I said is true.

That being said.

I have no evidence to prove any of this.
