40, a man named Matsuki Dirty Inkstone

——Tell me the story of a man

The man's name is, Machiri, Machiri Zorgen.

In addition to being mentally ‘forced to give a sense of justice’, the blood descendants of the demon god Babatos are prone to distortion of personality or distortion of the concept of justice, according to legendary description, it can give the summoner the ability to understand animal language.

The animals here naturally include various divine beasts, monsters, and monsters, and the language refers to "mysterious wisdom". They are translated into vernacular in popular language, which is "the power of summoning and controlling the level of demons" - the Barbatos' ethnic group is particularly good at this.

However, this is just a talent after all. As we all know, although magic is the first thing to do, talent can be compensated for by financial resources to a great extent. Therefore, the design and creation of magic is not mainly about personal efforts, but also about the historical process.

After all, it is the era of human principles. The divine beast, monster, fantasy beast, etc. have long lost their traces. The concept of "demon" that generally refers to this type of creature is gradually changing. Finally, one day, a man named Machiri Zorgen (Matsuki Dirty Inkstone) was driven by his innate sense of justice-

Well, he began to look for the secret of his sense of justice.

So he investigated the legend of Babatos and also learned the truth about the legendary 72 demon gods. In fact, the 72 demon-level programs created by Solomon with the power of the supreme holy ring, based on the seventy-two gods or demons.

My ancestor should be one of the magicians who studied under the magic king Solomon. Maybe because he was a very righteous person, he asked the magic king to implant the program factor of the demon Babatos into his bloodline.

Machiri Zorgen calmly accepted this curse (blessing) from his ancestors.

And work hard for it.

There is a saying in the East that I am born with me. Macri probably had a similar idea. Thinking about "Since there are people like me, then one day we will face the crisis of destruction of the world, right?" Macri began to study various methods of destruction of the world and targeted ways to save the world.

Among the many methods of destroying the world, Macchiri found a world-destroying disaster called "beast" and the "summoning technique of saving the world" developed by Solomon, which is specially designed for targeting the "summoning technique of the Seven Knights of the World" - which is now commonly known as the "summoning technique of the crown heroes".

Macchiri saw another possibility in this.

"Heroic spirits are powers used to protect human affairs. If that is the case, why should their responsibilities and work be limited to the matter of "beasts"?"

"If the 'Crown Heroic Spirit Summoning Technique' is simplified, the purpose of its targeting is weakened, and the heroic spirits on the Heroic Spirit throne are routinely used as a devil, it will also play a role in the face of a small disaster, right?"

This world is always full of misfortunes.

From the end of the world to the smallest colds, Macchiri always saves people as much as possible and helps those whom he can discover and save.

But the harder he worked, the more he realized that his power was limited. Even if his friends Leonardo and Hornheim called the living demon god, Macchiri became more and more troubled by the limitations of what he could protect.

When his friend, the omnipotent genius, Da Vinci, died, but he was still young and active because of the demon factor, Macchiri lamented:

"Ah, if it was not me who had this bloodline, but Leonardo, you would definitely be able to help more people, right?"

"...Then call me."

This is the last words of a close friend. Or is it just a joke?

"It's not a problem for you to survive for a few hundred years, and I, a genius, can definitely ascend to the throne of Heroes, so if you encounter an unsolvable problem one day, then find a way to use the summoning technique you are best at pulling me down as a Heroes. Even if you become a bald old man, I will laugh at you fiercely, and then, I will definitely help you."

A genius who was young with a beauty that was hard to distinguish between men and women, but before his death, he was as decayed as a withered plant, said with a smile:

"I don't have many friends. You are two of Hornheim, but Hornheim is a kind scumbag in his bones. If he summons him, he will definitely be better than failure. So you call me, after all, we are friends."

In fact, if you are willing to find a way, Macchiri can prosper his life for his friends.

He developed a special 'worm magic' based on the "breaking the cocoon into a butterfly" of insects - butterflies. This was a by-product of the secularization of medical knowledge that was still half a occult field.

As long as you continue to carry out the process of "breaking out of the cocoon and becoming a butterfly", and through the process of "abandoning the old rotten body", you will "reset" your life.

However, Leonardo da Vinci rejected Macchiri's proposal.

"You may be able to hold on with the demon factor, but I can't. Even if the body is regenerated through insect magic, the decay of the soul remains unchanged and will even be aggravated in this process. Your soul is the soul of the demon god, and may last for hundreds of years, but I can't do it."

Marici showed a sad expression, while Leonardo only showed a soft smile.

"...Machiri, let's make an agreement. If one day you realize that your soul is still beginning to decay, but you cannot commit suicide and become a monster controlled by obsession, then summon me and I will give you an end with your own hands."

"Don't show such an expression, Macchiri, I'm different from you, I'm a genius. For someone like me, death is not the end, it's just the beginning of another great adventure."

"I also look forward to seeing through these obsessions that day and joining us on this endless journey."

——Machiri remembered his friend’s last words.

And found inspiration, or it became a curse of some kind, and it was out of control.

For the next three hundred years, he was studying the method of simplifying the "Summoning Seven Knights of the World" to "Summoning Spike of Heroes", which made the original conditions extremely harsh. It was set by the Magic King as a summoning technique that could only be activated when the world-destroying beast was born, and simplified into a conventional technique that anyone can use.

There are many sadness and pain in this world.

Some pain is unsolvable, or it requires some unpredictable miracle power to solve.

And what the heroes will get after sublimation - [Treasures] contains the possibility of miracles.

Over the past three hundred years, Macchiri witnessed the passing of friends, wars, and the continuous growth of human civilized society in blood. Then, time came to the Victorian era.

The "breaking the cocoon into a butterfly (worm magic)" in the first two hundred years had basically no effect on Macchiri himself.

In this process, he had met someone who was seeking his life with insect magic. He was a farmer. Macchiri was not kind and stupid. He was very smart and did not save people rashly. Instead, he was objectively observing and verifying that the other party was a good person, never deliberately oppressing his workers, and even willing to work with his subordinates when facing difficulties. If he died, many people would be displaced because of this, and his life might be able to help more people...

After such considerations, Macchiri used insect magic on him.

This is the first time and the last time that Macchiri uses this technique against someone other than himself.

Because he witnessed the ugly appearance of the 'man who is reborn in the flesh but whose soul is rotten'.

Fortunately, Machiri is a responsible person, and his life span is very long and he has enough time. He does not leave after the magic is cast, but observes in secret... In the end, before the decaying monster in human skins commits evil, Machiri ends his life with his own hands.

This is not the first time that Macchiri killed a villain with his own hands, but he has extremely strict requirements on himself and is confident that he will never kill any good person by chance in his soul.

But at that moment, the man who had been relying on the factors of the demon gods to constantly break out of his cocoon and became a butterfly, constantly shaking himself as a human soul towards the "Demon God's Soul" for the first time.

What if one day I become like this and become a hero who is not "sustaining his life for the great ideal of justice" but "does not do anything to continue life"?

Who will stop him then? Will his descendants? No, since he himself, the Babatos clan has never produced any genius who is rare in magic.

So, like Leonardo da Vinci's last words, will he solve himself?

But... it has been two hundred years. Even Machiri, who is considered to be a living demon, has not really completed the magic of summoning heroes.

Because times have changed.

The magic king's technology in the old era was no longer able to adapt to the times, and it was constantly improving, but the times themselves were constantly changing, and the speed of change continued to intensify. In two hundred years, Macchiri could not be said to have no clue, but it could also be said to have no progress.

It’s just that in this process, Macchiri’s basic abilities in summoning techniques have become more and more solid.

Macchiri can only look forward to a qualitative change one day.

But at this time, the two hundred-year-old Macchiri had a worry, which made him unable to continue to study it simply.

He couldn't guarantee that one day in the future, even if he really successfully developed the heroic spirit summoning technique, would he really only use it to help others and benefit the world?

Especially when we see the history of the continuous increase in the lethality of weapons between humans.

Macchiri was shaken.

Can you really use the heroic summoning technique to protect humans?

Will humans really make the world a better place after mastering the heroic spirit summoning technique?

I will die one day, the future successor, will you really use this power to save the world, protect the world, and make the world a better place?

As a result, Macchiri felt serious anxiety, which became more and more serious, even to the point where the research progress was stagnant.

Let’s not talk about whether the Hero Spirit Summoning Technique can be successfully developed - after all, at that time, Macchiri was not so arrogant that she was sure that she could succeed.

Compared to the successful development of technology, what he is more worried about is that if he really turns into a monster one day, who can stop him?

The long years made Macchiri's sense of justice realize that the bloodline of the demon god is not a simple blessing, but a more dangerous thing. So he began to deliberately not pass on his knowledge to his descendants, and encourage future generations to secularize them, not to intermarry with other magician families for their bloodline, but to encourage them to fall in love freely.

Let the dangerous blood of Barbatos end here.

Then, half a century has passed in time while studying and searching for a "limiter" that can sanction yourself.

Time has come to the Victorian era.

Finally, Macchiri found someone.

Helen Petrovna Bravacchi

Commonly known as Helena or ‘Madame Bravatsky’.

Marchili saw something similar to herself in her. Both of them longed to make the world better with mysterious technology, making this power no longer a tool for a few to oppress and rule the majority, but instead making knowledge a more common sense thing for the general public.

For this reason, the magician Helena, who has been able to touch the roots and has arrived in the field of magic, even performed the feat of directly publishing his mysterious knowledge through a secular publishing house.

As a result, he was naturally chased and banned by the Magicians Association.

Helena, who failed in the struggle with the association, found her friend, Macchiri, in a disheartened manner, hoping to get the power of insect magic from him.

Helena is tired of worldly struggles and wants to usher in a new life by "rebirth".

Macchiri told her her story and her worries, especially the hidden dangers of insect magic.

After talking to the two old grandparents and grandparents, they came to a conclusion.

He is obviously an old woman, but Helena's smile is particularly refreshing:

"If my soul deteriorates, then you kill it. I will use my own mystery to protect myself. It is difficult for me to teach others my skills, but if it succeeds, then I will make your fuse in the next few hundred years. If you fall one day, I will close you with my own hands and inherit your research. Similarly, I will find the next fuse and continue to pass on it..."

"Maqiri! Don't be so unconfident! Although it's not possible now, human history must be spiraling upward. When this technology is successfully developed, future human beings will definitely use this technology to make the world a better place!"

The result after Helena broke out of her cocoon and became a butterfly... was perfect, which made Macchiri feel relieved.

That's fine.
