Miss Surtr will ignite the world

"If you want to."

"Then consider this your payment for hiring me. Now, change your appearance."

Surtr's tone carried a hint of anticipation.

Both are trips, but traveling with a beautiful girl is definitely more enjoyable than traveling with a man.

Absolute Demonic Front: Chapter 15 The Dense Forest

well known.

Nightmares are devoid of human emotions.

Therefore, there was no such thing as shame. After thinking for a fraction of a second in response to Surtr's request, Mr. Merlin...

After saying "That sounds interesting," he readily agreed.

"When I get back, I'll go say hello to Romani. It's good to give back to the fans sometimes, isn't it?"

On the grassland outside the city, a white-haired girl with pink eyes and pointed ears stood by a stream, looking at her reflection in the water, and spoke sincerely.

It would be more convincing if she could lower the corners of her mouth a little.

"The doctor is really lucky to have such a caring idol who cares about his fans."

Surtr could hardly disagree.

In this era, apart from Merlin, there probably isn't any other virtual YouTuber who would cross-dress for their fans.

Of course, it's also possible that everyone else has stopped.

That reason sounds a bit hellish.

Sitting on the rock, Surtr looked at the petite girl in front of him, who was half a head shorter than him, and nodded in satisfaction.

Even though they're both Merlin, the female version is much more pleasing to the eye than the male version.

Even if the other party were to play some rather outrageous pranks now, Miss Surtr would probably forgive her.

She's probably the kind of person whose values ​​follow her physical appearance.

But then again.

It really does look alike.

The figure before him was undoubtedly another Merlin from Surtr's memory.

She wore a white top with butterfly-like sleeves, black trousers with gold patterns, and even her staff had turned silver-white.

Does this mean all female versions of Merlin look like this?

Have you ever seen yourself in another world?

Surtr asked directly.

"You actually knew that?"

Merlin's face showed a hint of surprise, then he nodded.

"After all, we share the same eyes and have met once from afar. But we both decided not to interfere with each other, so there has been no communication."

In other words, we can still communicate if we want to.

"EX-level telescopic vision is too overpowered; it can even see parallel worlds."

Surtr smirked. As expected of a top-tier all-seeing eye, it's incomparable to an A-rank.

"It's really convenient. Thanks to these eyes, I'm not bored in Avalon."

Although it might sound a bit boastful, Merlin actually thought her eyes were the best among the Grand Candidates.

It's hard not to agree.

If Merlin were killed, would she also have a chance to get an EX-level Clairvoyance?

Some ominous thoughts arose in Surtr's mind, but she quickly dismissed them.

This Merlin is still too weak. Killing her probably won't give her any gold coins. I need the real Merlin.

pity.

The Servant is alright, but the main body is not worth mentioning.

Six months ago, the invasion of the Northern Beast Goddess began.

A similar upheaval occurred in southern Uruk.

Overnight, lush jungles covered most of the southern region, including the cities of Ur and Eridu.

The two Servants Gilgamesh sent to investigate the jungle have also disappeared, and the situation inside the jungle remains unknown until now.

rustle.

The strong smell of earth filled the air, and the boots crunched on the thick, rotting leaves, the slippery sensation making one frown.

In the shadows of the dense forest, wild beasts lurk, silently watching the uninvited guests who have dared to trespass.

"This is terrible, this place is absolutely no place for a human to live."

Merlin grumbled as he walked along the animal path, leaning on his staff like a pickled cucumber.

"It's so hot and humid, there are so many bugs, it's hard to walk, and the magic concentration is so high, it's like another world on the level of a Reality Barrier. I should have gone to the construction site with Fujimaru and the others to move bricks."

"Stop complaining now that you're here. According to the map, it's only a ten-minute drive south to Ur. This situation will be over soon."

Surtr looked at the map on the stone slab and realized that it was no longer possible to have the guy behind him lead the way.

However, she could understand him; the jungle was indeed unbearably hot, and even Surtr felt a little uncomfortable.

It's clear that just the calories alone wouldn't be enough to make her think that way.

But rather than saying it's hot, it's more accurate to say it's stuffy.

The ground was steaming with humid heat, and the heavy ether seemed to make the entire air thick and sticky, like walking into a sauna while still dressed.

In addition, there were animal calls all around.

It's not impossible for an ordinary person to lose consciousness while walking and even faint.

Looking up, through the gaps in the tree shade, you can even see the feathered serpent pterosaur circling in the air.

Like the mythical beast army of Ragnarok II, every pterosaur on this is at least a mythical beast, and there are even some that are divine beasts.

There are nearly a hundred of them that can be seen.

The original Mesopotamia probably wouldn't have had such a place; it could only be like Egypt during the Sixth Singularity, summoned along with Kukulkan.

Seriously, do those top players always have a field card with them when they respond to a summon?

"It's going to be so long! This is agonizing. When I get back, I'm definitely going to make Gilgamesh give me a raise."

Merlin's face fell.

"A raise? Are you that short of money?"

Because Gilgamesh gained clairvoyance and accelerated technological advancement, things like monetary systems, which should have appeared five hundred years later, suddenly became popular in Uruk.

Feeling it was worth collecting, Surtr traded a small gem to Siduri for a set.

"Of course, whether it's buying alcohol or going to a brothel, it all costs money."

Merlin's tone was serious; if one didn't know the content, they might think he was talking about something serious.

"That's very Merlin's answer."

However, there's an inexplicable sense of incongruity about using this face to talk about going to a brothel.

Looking out from the bushes behind them at the two people continuing on their way, they seemed to be hesitating whether to follow.

Ten minutes later, the outline of the city came into view.

"We've finally arrived."

Meilin let out a long breath. The woods around the city weren't as dense, and the environment was much better.

"It seems there are still quite a few people in the city. Perhaps we can take them all back with us later."

Beyond the bushes, one could vaguely make out the crowds moving about in the city.

If we use teleportation, it shouldn't take much time.

But no sooner had he finished speaking than a sound came from the dense forest behind them.

"That won't do! If you take the offerings without permission, Kukul will make me cry!"

The sound echoed through the dense forest. Looking up, one could see an orange shadow running at incredible speed above the trees.

"Boom!"

Sound effects simulated by mouth.

Immediately afterwards, a few dozen meters ahead, a guy dressed in an orange mascot costume, who looked like a comedic character, landed a few dozen meters in front of the two of them.

"This is our territory ahead, rookies! If you don't want to become leopard food, you'd better retreat now!"

As the leopard-man said this, he silently took a step back.

Absolute Demonic Front: Chapter Sixteen - Special Seat

The Leopard Man's Diary.

The weather is sunny on the 15th of August, a good day to go out.

As soon as I stepped outside, I smelled the stench of two rookies daring to trespass into the territory of the great leopard man. Perfect timing, lunchtime is almost here.

They found it so easily. No wonder they're newbies; they had no idea they were being targeted by the great leopard man. Very well, let the leopard man take their hearts.

Ugh, what's going on? That horned creature smells really bad, and its fur is standing on end. But how can a great leopard warrior back down here? But going up there feels like I'll die. Maybe I should just let them go this time.

Damn it, they actually dared to attack the leopard people's sacrifices! This is undoubtedly a provocation against the leopard people, and it is completely intolerable. We must strike hard!

An extremely high-profile entrance.

With a terrifying club shaped like a cat's paw at the top, the Claw of Death is aimed directly at the intruder.

"Newbies, this is our territory. If you don't want to be torn to shreds by Kukul, you'd better retreat now!"

Facing Surtr head-on, the leopard-woman instinctively sought a backer for herself.

"..."

"Hiss, to be dressed like this in a place like this, you must be an extraordinary Servant. Surtr, I'm counting on you."

After a moment of silence, Merlin's face showed heartfelt admiration. He took a step back and shielded Surtr in front of him.

"Although the angle is a bit strange, it's hard not to agree with it."

Surtr nodded, took out his twin pistols, and pointed them at the leopard-man in front of him.

Although he may seem like a comedic character, that's certainly true.

But this guy is a god after all, and he has some unclear relationship with Trikat Lipoka, one of the supreme gods of the Maya, so he can't be underestimated.

"Say, hurry up and leave! This is your last chance, or the evil Kukul will descend..."

The leopard-woman seemed to want to say something more, but Surtr didn't give her the chance.

She wasn't Ritsuka; the leopard-man in front of her didn't fit her taste in either appearance or personality, so she decided to be direct.

“That’s wonderful. I was just about to go find Kukulkan. If she’s home, it will be a huge help.”

Pull the trigger.

Flaming bullets shot out from the muzzle of the gun.

"Oh! That's dangerous! You're carrying such a scary thing! Do you have a permit?!"

While spouting nonsensical words, the leopard man dodged the bullets in a strange posture.

"There are no police in this era."

Surtr picked up where he left off, but didn't stop what he was doing. In the blink of an eye, he covered a distance of more than ten meters, raised the butt of his gun, and slammed it down heavily on the leopard man's head.

"Terrifying! But don't underestimate the leopard man."

As if to bolster his courage, the self-proclaimed Leopard Man let out a tremendous, tiger-like roar from that human mouth. With the agility of a leopard, he ducked to dodge the attack, thick golden magic coursing through his cat paws.

He reached for Surtr's waist.
