Ch.55 A Warrior who Crossed The Sea and The Continent Beyond.

A Hero who defeated the Demon Lord. What comes to mind when you hear that?

Most people would probably imagine a hero who stands for justice and carries the hopes of everyone on his shoulders, defeating a demon king who has done evil.

If this is true, the brave who succeeded in defeating them is a Hero to humanity.

But what if it's actually the other way around?

The humans were the first to attack, and the Demon Lord, wanting to stop the massacre of their people, fought back, but was defeated despite their best efforts.

If that's the case, then Heroes are nothing more than massacrers and murderers.

The truth is sometimes twisted to suit the convenience of those with malicious intent.

If you only listen to one side, the truth will remain hidden forever. You can't see it unless you listen to both sides.

"I see... By the way, I wonder who made the first move."

"Well, did you not hear her, Vester? the Demon Lord attacked first."

Sakidori Midori-san, who had leaned forward a little to wash her right foot, turned her face towards me.

Because her ears are shaking, I feel like I can understand her emotions a little.

It seems my remarks have attracted attention.

"No, Sakidori Midori-san. What she had just said is from the human's perspective, a story that has been passed down to humans. It might be different if we listen to the Demon Lord's side."

"So you're saying the humans attacked first?"

"It's not impossible, but I don't have any information on that."

Mimia-san stopped washing her hair, and Titer Salitari-san also stopped washing her hair for the second time.

Oh, I didn't notice, but you both have slightly pointy ears.

The shape of her ears is elven. But Mimia's ears aren't that long, so maybe she's half-elf?

Probably not, as you can make it shorter or smaller depending on the size and age setting.

"It's rare to see demons, other than members of demigods, in the city. It seems they don't leave the country where only demons live very often."

The place where the demons live is also in a hidden area, just like the Fairy Forest. However, my place is only the size of a village.

I've only heard rumors about it, but I don't know where the demon's country is. All I know is that it was there in my previous life.

Since it's a country, there must be a lord who rules over that land. I had no idea if this lord is the Demon Lord though.

"Is there a country that only has demons?"

"I've heard of it. Apparently it's on a continent across the sea."

Yes, that seems to be the case. That's the rumor I know.

I wonder who it was that crossed the sea.

With this body, I could probably cross the ocean, but I wonder if it was worth the long flight to go and see it. It's on another continent, so there are likely to be rare things there, but there's also the possibility that the people there might be supremacists or aggressive towards other races.

"I heard the rumor too."

"Even though the sea is full of monsters, that guy is amazing. He's a warrior alright"

He's a real warrior. To cross the sea, not only must the person be at a high level, but they also need to have a sturdy ship that can withstand the onslaught of monsters.

Swarms of flying fish will fly towards the player, and if you get hit, your armor will be dented. Unless the group attack ends, your health will continue to decrease as if you were taking a machine gun shot with your entire body.

You cannot conquer areas above or under the sea unless you are at a high level.

I was also beaten up many times. In the end, I was unable to cross over to the other side.

"I'd like to visit that continent someday."

Mimia-san said as she washed the fluffy foam off her head in the shower.

"I'd like to go too if I could get my own ship. But first I need to conquer the continent I'm on now."

Sakidori Midori-san is rinsing the soap off her body in the shower, while Titer Salitari-san has finished washing her hair for the second time and is applying body soap to a fluffy body sponge that she must have brought with her, and is now working up a lather.

I touch the underwear that is beginning to regenerate, peel it off my body, and watch it disintegrate in mid-air, then turn the head of the body soap towards me so I can wash my body as well.

I put my hand under where the soap will fall and push the head with my telekinesis, and a large lump of body soap fell onto the palm of my hand. With its large mass, it was too much for my small hand to support, and it falls to the stone aling with my hands.

"Uwaa!"

"Hey, are you okay?!"

"I-I'm fine. I was just surprised."

"You suddenly raised your voice, so I was surprised too."

"Are you okay? If it's difficult to wash by yourself, I'll help you."

I should have just caught it with telekinesis. It would have been impossible with such small hands. I should have realized that with a little thought, what an idiot.

Mimia-san, worried about whether I could wash by myself, offered to help.

"Um, well... I can wash my body by myself, but could you help me rinse off? The water pressure in that shower is so strong I might get blown away."

"Yes, I understand."

When I accepted the kind offer, Mimia-san seemed happy. Why did she have such a smile? Oh well.

I pick up some body soap that had fallen on a small stone counter and apply it to my body. I didn't bring a towel because it was too big to use. Therefore, my only option is to wash with my hands.

Unlike in my previous life, I am now a woman. However, I no longer feel the difference in sensations that I felt at first due to gender differences. It's now my own body that I am used to moving.

But for some reason, even though it's my own body, I still feel a little uneasy about touching that part. I need some courage to do it.

It's not like touching my arms or legs. They're the same parts of my body I was used to touching when I was a man. Unlike these bulges.

My hand hesitates for just a moment, then stops, but I have to wash it anyway, so I touch it anyway.

"Hmm...hmm? I see..."

When I touched it, it was nothing special. It was my own budding breasts.

It just feels like I'm touching it with my own hand, and there's nothing particularly strange about it. I just think it's a little softer than when It was a man's.

I wonder if it will grow big enough to fit comfortably in my hand.

Apparently life would be difficult if it's big, and if it's small you want to make it bigger.

"Is there something bothering you?"

"No, I just thought about what would be the right size."

"What are you talking about?"

"I'm talking about breasts."

I said to Titer Salitari-san as she finished washing her breasts. she only needs to wash her legs and buttocks, and that is it.

But I'm not shaken now. Even though it's a part of my body that wasn't there before, it's the same as with my chest. I wash it quickly.

I don't feel anything particularly strange about it when I touch it. It's just soft.

"Well, you're still growing up, aren't you, Vester-san? You're still growing up, right?"

Growth period? Yes. Maybe, probably. Although it's possible that my body will stay the same forever.

Oh, in that case, does that mean my breasts won't grow?

〘The Difference Between Monsters and Magic Beasts〙

① Monsters are animals that have evolved and strengthened by absorbing the magical energy of things in the air. Since the beginning of the world, they have evolved and strengthened little by little until they reached their current form.

At their core, they're just animals.

② Magic beasts are creatures whose bodies are constructed solely from magical power.

They are not born through reproduction, but are born when the magical powers of nature come together and take shape. They are not animals.

This naturally occurring being has only one goal in mind: to devour others.

Although they aren't born very often, their numbers increase dramatically when demons are involved. They are extremely dangerous creatures.

〘Demons〙

A race born with a large amount of magical power and a high aptitude for dark magic and sorcery.

Almost all of them have 2 horns growing from their heads.

If they are born without horns or with only 1 horn, they will be shunned and left out, leading an uncomfortable life.

These people would then travel to another continent on their own, established settlements, and are living happily ever after.

Hornless or single-horned demons NPCs are fairly rare.

Two-horned demons NPCs are extremely rare, you would find barely any of them.
