Interlude 2

Black Prince Alec pondered about the great hero’s tool
.
「Hmmm……」
Alec sighed after he finished a job.
He was in his stronghold the Forest of Shadow Chaser. More accurately in his room inside the base that was built in a corner of the forest.
He was sitting on a wooden chair in front of a writing desk, but Alec’s body and gaze weren’t directed toward the desk.
He was looking at the opposite side, at the two weapons that were placed on the floor.
They were an iron bow with black luster and a wooden quiver that was painted black. The items were clad in extraordinary spiritual aura.
They were objects that he borrowed without permission from the rookie and full of opening hero of devil king extermination. He brought them until this mansion that was his hideout.
They were the weapons of Prince Ramachandra, the great hero that was the pride of India mythology.
He attempted to analyze them with several methods to learn what kind of property they had and what secret they hid. From that he succeeded in obtaining some results.
Although, Alec himself couldn’t use this set of weapons.
No matter how much of a valorous hero he was, a human of lower world couldn’t possibly handle these weapons.
They were divine tools that could only show their worth when in the hand of a war god with suitable 『status』. Even pulling the bowstring and nocking an arrow with them was beyond the means of ordinary person.
However, analyzing and inspecting them weren’t wholly impossible for someone who possessed enough discernment and preparation.
「In any case, I understand well that they are very interesting tools.」
Loading Ad...
Alec muttered.
He directed his authority as Campione to the bow and quiver. He tested their toughness and drew out their quality as divine tool.
The monocle and parchment grimoire that were placed on the table were both magical tools with shady history behind them.
They could spiritually scan even divine tools or holy relics that belonged to gods and granted mankind wisdom about the world of gods by reading the attribute and divine power that were hidden in the scanned things.
Like that Alec managed to satisfy his personal interest, but.
That was so to speak for his 『hobby time』.
It was time for him to return to his main business as a Campione, godslayer.
「The hero god devil king extermination will arrive here soon. Without knowing that she is accompanied by another scoundrel Campione……」
Now then, these bow and quiver, how should he make use of them?
A part of him also wanted to return the debt from before toward that scoundrel in full. Alec ran his brain in full capacity as an intellectual of inscrutable stratagem. It was then.
「Prince──」
A subordinate arrived in front of the door that he left open so that wind could flow in.
He was a blind poet who was also an old man with the spiritual ability of foresight.
「There is something that I wish for you to hear……」
「Is it something related to the future?」
This was the impetus that enticed the Black Prince Alec to a new adventure.
