I didn’t expect it.

This is the word that plucked Ain’s brain when he woke up at night.

As soon as I finished dressing and headed to the living space, Chris was already there, holding Ain’s Black Sword Ishtar, waiting for him to come.

They’re surrounded.

“–That’s right, Marco and Dill are not here.Perhaps they’re out there communicating with the knights. “

“No doubt. We’re sure we’ll notice.”

After a simple exchange, the two left the tent.

Outside, as expected, the knights are on alert, and Marco and Dill, who saw the two of them, immediately rush in.

“He seems to be leading more than a few times the names we’ve identified.”

“Confirmed… Ayn-sama!?What were you trying to do without me knowing!? “

I thought it was natural to be angry, but I didn’t think they would find out like this.

Eventually, I thought I’d explain myself in King’s Landing, but I didn’t have any plans.However, Chris does not try to force himself to ask in this pressing situation, but once he asks, he says, “Please tell me later.”

“I’ll leave that to you two.Marco and I were going to do that from the beginning. “

“I don’t know….”

“Forgive me, but this is all about you two.”

Well, it’s time to explain it to Marco.

“Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh

“Looks like we’ve got a new one.Please keep in mind that the surroundings are already surrounded by names. “

“I see. A luxurious army.”

“Yes, even in the time of the Demon King War, I had the opportunity to meet so many men -“

“Wasn’t that right?”

“No, I think I’ve gathered more power than that on several occasions.It was a battle that lasted many years, but it’s still a little bit. “

It was still a terrible war.

Though the knights heard from a distance quickly had a nervous look on their faces, they immediately noticed Ain as he walked out, and they immediately caught their eyes on him.

Also, his ears were tilted only to hear his voice.

“As you know, the enemy has arrived.”

Withdraw the sword and hold it in one hand.

“But it’s just a name. Unless the sea dragons formed a herd, those who were leaping in the Heim War were not the opponents.Yes, it’s called “Named.”

Normally, even that name will allow a skilled adventurer party to prepare carefully and finally crush it.

And when it comes to how many of them are there, counting is a huge crowd of billions.

Ain said what happened.

Even a knight who wouldn’t nod normally nods honestly when Ain says so.

I was cut off. There is no stronger presence than the Crown Prince I believe in.

“There is no need for forgiveness for those who lead.They’re dangerous. They are our enemies with all the potential to carry out mass killings.As Your Majesty said, I don’t mind the crusade as the first goal. “

Away, Archer stood on a tall tree.

She looks down at the voice of Ain and nods with satisfaction.

“Magic Stone Gun. Fire without warning.”

Everyone’s reply reaches Ain.

The knights were ready to fire Magic Stone cannons at any time for placement in no time.The lurking named ones aren’t showing up yet, but I know.Your faint breath is dripping, and you’re about to hear whoever it is.

However, the sound of the trees shaking away makes it a wonderful surprise even at night.

But Ain has to give the first shot.

This is the moment when I tried to raise and lower one hand.

“─ ─ Huh?”

Dozens of monsters from the blind corners of the trees where Archer stands.

Many monsters such as Wyburn, the beast, the bug, and the slime all jumped up to the little body of Archer -.

A dull sound and her screaming.

And the tree where she was supposed to be laying.

“Help me!”

“Ah, ah! Hurry up!”

The knight’s panicked voice.

But Named took the opportunity to infiltrate this open land.

There are even more undead monsters inside, like giant snakes crawling through the earth.

There are also monsters like Huorn who are simulated in trees, and there are a lot of them.

Both the mighty knights who tried to save Archer are hard to deal with.In that lost moment, it was packed close to the Magic Stone Cannon.

“Ah… stop… it hurts… i…”

Sad voice.

The sound of dripping bodily fluids or dragging something.

Eventually, the sound of biting and crushing bones.

Blood flowed from where Archer was, and it was in the eyes of the knights.

The knights finally panicked at Ain’s inability to move.

Turning around and looking at Ain, there was no sign of his arm falling down.

“Your Highness!”

Why aren’t you doing anything?

Archer seems to be a young girl at first sight.Even if he was a trillion steps away from a bloodstained history, seeing him now is more than just fearing him.They came here and were affectionate to Archer.

Even so, the crown prince, known as the hero, did not move.

This is strange and shakes my heart.

The fact that all three of them were near him made him panic terribly.

—But…

The right thing to do is not what it looks like.

“The knight is confused, so please leave it that way.”

Ain’s voice echoes.

Continuing, he shook his sword and cast his dazzling magic around.

So, what do you say?

The sights that the knights did not expect are spreading.

“What… is this…?!”

“Well, why is the monster down!?”

“Did His Highness do something!?”

The answer is no. Everything Archer did.

Looking around calmly, the tree did fall.

But Archer wasn’t killed.

On the contrary, she stood in the center surrounded by monsters, and her clothes didn’t even look dirty with blood.

I’m not trying to distract you.

“… really?”

“Really! My magic is just too strong!”

Everything is a dream. Everything is a delusion.

Dozens of names are fascinated in just a moment, and her magic has taken their lives.

—-Don ‘t forget.

She is the culprit of the war.

With all due respect, at least she was the one who took countless lives in the war and remained as powerful as the Demon King.

The knights were surprised and reconfirmed the fact.

The name of the second team similarly dabbled in -.

Um…

Archer did not turn around and went to the trees and the name of the dancing down the sky.

* giggle *, a thick, glossy smile that doesn’t look familiar to you.

“Whether it’s scary or sweet, it’s the same dream.”

At that moment, the black wind came up.

It spreads around the area and does not affect the Knight in any way.

It only hits the names that push it, and for a moment it stops moving.Soon they trembled, and one named wounded himself.

And one named devoured the neck of a companion that ran beside him.

The knights were stunned, but in their ears.

“As I said, I will not forgive you!”

The voice of Ain reaches.

“Let go!”

A blow from a merciless weapon.

Once again, the words “no mercy” resonated strongly in the hearts of the knights who were surprised.They have come here with a strong determination to do the same.

That’s why it was so early to be brave with Ain’s voice.

This land, long after four books have fallen, is usually wrapped in darkness until morning.

In an instant, the brilliance of colors rushes through the mountains.

Roar, light, ground noise.

No matter how named, we cannot ignore the power of the Magic Stone Cannon fired from this distance.And it’s a wave-like attack.

Is it the demon king Archer that deserves special mention?

There is no other way for Archer to get to Named and escape the waves of the Magic Stone Cannon or to escape.There is no difference at the end of the road.

But Named won’t try anything to escape, and he won’t destroy his party.

All like fanatics.

Dead and severed, trampling on the remains of a fellow who died one step ahead.

(This battle is sad)

Ain was sinking in his heart.

Monsters have lives.

Man fights if he is attacked or in danger, but why do the imminent named attack the Ains?

(Definitely)

Because they are forced to fight.

It was terribly sad.

—-I ‘m sure the monsters who die with Archer’s power are not suffering.

Looking at her face, Ain knew she was doing it.

I have to do it myself.

One step, one step further.

He dazzled from his feet or drifted with darker magic than the book of the night and decided to let the named sleep in between breaths.

◇ ◇ ◇ ◇

The power of the Magic Stone Cannon swayed the area.

Both Visel and Roy, who were already moving forward, were also checking, and their livers were cooled by the brilliant colors coming from under the mountain skin.

Let’s hurry.

“… I know.”

Visel was ahead of Roy, as he was saying.

By the way, Ain didn’t imagine the speed at which they were traveling.Because they were both surrounded by monsters with golden hair.

“Let’s put a mark on it today.”

“Of course. We need to grow these kids early.”

Well, I don’t know if he’s really here.

“I’m sure you’ll be there. That’s what he said?”

“— You shouldn’t trust me too much.”

“You think about him?”

“That’s right, don’t you think?They gave us power for free.It’s no wonder there’s a back door. “

“You! Visel!”

“Calm down. We’re adventurers.I’m telling you not to believe anything unconditionally. “

That’s right, but Roy didn’t nod honestly.

There is no denying that adventurers have a culture (,,) of being deceived.If they both had bitter memories, they would have earned the opposite.

Even if it was.

The two men, who had been adventurers for many years, disagreed here.

Visel thought he should only be vigilant, and his partner Roy was different, believed in the silver-haired man who gave him power, and even had feelings close to worship.

But after that, Visel’s mind will change.

If he’s right about what he told me, I’m sure he’ll change his mind.

Running the gum, a few minutes.It was at the tip of the summit that Daisen arrived in no time.

What do you say?

Beyond Roy’s brilliant gaze, the sight was spreading as imagined.

In ancient times, it was a special mountain to soar up magic, and here you can see the magical currents still left like a lake.

———————————————————————————————————————————————————————————-

“All right, all right! I’m sorry!”

Visel, who had been naughty until now, shrugged his shoulders.

They smile at the appearance of dozens of monsters floating near each other’s magical currents.

—– Fairy.

A silver-haired man told them there was a special monster around here.

That’s what saved the fairies in this land.

A herd different from the one Ein encountered, a rare creature of monsters who have been nesting here for centuries.

“Apparently, there’s been a fairy coming from another place recently.”

“They flew last time, didn’t they?Even though it’s the same species, it’s only natural that when a different herd arrives, they get rid of it. “

“Because it’s natural.”

When you have finished exchanging information, quickly.

They descend from the gum they used to ride and stand in front of them, including the other one.

Then he pointed to the herd of fairies that were beyond the great hole under his eyes.

“You’re devouring me. So you can evolve.”

“Hurry up, we don’t have much time left.”

Golden gums who flew with signals.

Faster than the wind, in an instant.

Distance and expose sharp teeth before fairies notice visitors.

Ro……!?

Whether the fairy speaks up or not, there is a hole in the body like an umbrella.

Hafu ─ ─ Gah! Gah!

Ro…… rooo…… rooo!

Lengthens tentacles, but cuts ferocious nails without difficulty.

The fairies in the area finally noticed something strange and floated in the universe.

However, one was crashed by another gum – and the other was burned by the flames that the gum unleashed.

Flames from red to pale, and gold.

Heat waves that seem cool enough to burn the surroundings, and even magical currents are sucked into Gulm’s body.

The nails that have sacrificed many creatures have become sharper, and the arms that work with them are larger and thicker.

The body itself grew more than twice as much.

Wow.

“Are you scared?”

“No way, it’s cute when you think it’s our pet.”

“… but I don’t think we should get the wrong idea.”

Hmm?

“We didn’t get it ourselves.He said he should be careful not to drown and become too careless. “

“Don’t say boring things again.What’s the matter? You always told me I’d be a big, awesome man to rich people!Where did Roy go then! “

“I haven’t forgotten.I’m just afraid if I suddenly lose this power. “

For example, if a lot of money goes in, it will be divided into two people.

A person who wastes a lot as if he were dissipating his patience to date.

On the other hand, many people would turn to saving, but they had a similar tendency.

After all, there is still a difference of opinion.

“I’m leaving Ishtalica eventually. We just need to get to that continent.”

I guess so.

“Yes, because the royal family has the words of the first king, and they won’t do anything impossible.”

Three-headed gum was growing even as we talked.

The number of hands and feet doubles and the number of tails increases.

As expected, there was no increase in the number of heads, but it was a big change.

Hello, both of you.

Someday, behind you.

The man with silver hair stood up.

“You seem to be enjoying it, most of all.”

“Yikes, when did you get here!?”

“Just now, it looks like it was busy, so I wanted to see how it went.”

Unlike Roy, who lowered his head in a hurry, Visel was confused.

I wonder if you don’t understand the words you just said, or if you can’t see through your own thoughts.

That was what Roy looked like from the side.

“Visel”

But the silver-haired man spoke before Visel’s heart calmed down.

“You seem to enjoy your freedom.”

“Ah, ahh… thanks to you”

“I’m glad. I love that respect.”

“… sometimes I don’t understand you very well.”

The silver-haired man did not say anything to the word and laughed with his arms around him.

She said while holding down her long hair shaking in the wind at night.

“Don’t say that.I like Visel. “

“Uh-oh!?”

“You’re beautiful. You’re so beautiful and beautiful among the people I’ve seen.I love everything about you so much that you look adorable. “

“What are you suddenly saying!?”

“Ha ha. It’s okay. Please stay put.I just want to see if the flower blooms. “

But…

“I think I told Roy, why did you do it?”

“Wait, give me your hand…?”

“I guess I forgot. I told you not to touch him, didn’t I?”

It’s about Prince Wang.

The silver-haired man was still smiling, but it was like a mask.

Relax. If you lose interest, you’re going to get killed.

A tremor that was difficult to use as a brush and tongue struck my body.

“Well, we decided to get ahead of ourselves before they came here.”

…………

“Apparently they were going to carry out a night raid, and I don’t think it was a mistake -“

“Then I can’t help it. Yeah, I’m glad you don’t have to do it again.”

“Hey! I can’t help it this time!That’s what Roy is! “

“I know, Roy is certainly more calm than Visel.I don’t think I can help it if it wasn’t funny. “

He relieved the pressure lightly.

Don’t be daft, like that was a lie.

“Roy, I like you too.Will you show me that sparkle until the end of the day? “

“Of course, I will try to meet your expectations!”

“Ahhhhhhh”

“Visel! What an attitude!”

“Are you crazy?Why don’t you enjoy your freedom, don’t you think it’ll disappoint you? “

“I’m sorry! I’ll tell him…!”

“It’s okay, you guys are just like you, just show me the beauty I love.”

The silver-haired man turned his back on both of them.

“I’ll be back.”

This is how it dissolves into darkness.

After he disappeared, Roy scolded Visel again.Grab your chest and open your mouth, adding more rumors than ever before.

Visel took it and sighed, but he didn’t seem to apologize.Needless to say, this hurt Roy even more, but I don’t feel like sitting here like this.

He ended up breathing roughly and watching the gums finish eating.

“Let’s go home, before they come after us.”

“It’s too late, Roy. You’re too late.”

When Roy said in a calm voice that made him nervous, he noticed…

Magic Stone Cannon nearby.

The sound of the march was approaching.

“Am I?”

“That’s right. I guess so. This feeling.I’ve known Roy for a long time, and I thought it couldn’t be easily split, but what a surprise… it seems I was drier than I thought. “

“What are you talking about, Visel?What the hell…!? “

I couldn’t help it against Roy.

Roy, who was supposed to be the chief of staff at Combi, panicked.

“Visel! What am I doing too late?”

“All of it. – I told you, you should have been free.It wasn’t me, Roy, who threw away what he gave me. “

Visel spoke a strange word.

However, he didn’t call a silver-haired man that man.

I was worried about Roy, and the words that ran away at the same time were the same, but I was even more dazed when I saw Gulm rushing out of the big hole and sandwiching Visel.

—-Until the end.

I remember the words of a silver-haired man.

You don’t know yourself?

Your body trembles and sweats over a twitching smile.

“Hurry! Come back to me!”

But the rest of the gum won’t come back.

Instead, Gulm rushed to Visel’s side, and Roy reached out and peeled his teeth.

“Why… why did you… why me…!?”

“Hey, I knew it from the beginning.”

An army of regular Ishtalica knights is approaching.

It seems that Prince Ain was able to make the road, so I quickly packed it here.

“Visel… tell me, what’s going on?”

“—-I don’t know what that guy is expecting from us.He’s just happy to see us rot and find a new toy. “

“Wait, Visel.”

“But I can be free because it’s more fun than living normally.”

“Visel… hey! Visel!”

“Nobles are happier to keep than wild dogs.Whoa, don’t tell me that’s not freedom.If you can only be free in a prepared mansion (boxyard), you can’t be happier than that. “

“No way, I didn’t know that–!”

“Roy’s just round in the corner of the boxyard.Then the owner is boring.I can’t protect you either. “

Roy couldn’t speak any more.

Even if you anticipate it, if you give me an answer, it will really become a problem.

When asked, Visel did not touch it and exhaled.

“We can’t stop.You have to keep shining and have fun with him.You can’t stop on the way, like an idiot who fucked his meds. “

But this is it.

“—-This is the best, the best, this is the most fun!”

That face wasn’t the Visel Roy knew.

It’s not just lust, it’s clear.

It wasn’t like I was worried about anything, but I was looking forward to the end of my choices. It was a clean face.

On the other hand, kneel down and gaze at the name approaching you.

You’re not listening to yourself anymore.

There’s only one more thing I’ve learned from my partner’s interactions.

Hey! I can’t help it this time!This is what Roy is like!

I know, Roy is certainly more calm than Visel.It wasn’t funny… I don’t think I can help it. ‘

One more thing.

“Are you out of your mind?Why don’t you enjoy your freedom, don’t you think it’ll disappoint you? “

It wasn’t Visel that was protected by this exchange.

I was protected by my partner, but I finally understood that I was the one who made the wrong choice.

◇ ◇ ◇ ◇

When Ain arrived at the summit of the mountain, many names were trekking around.

The wreckage left in the hole also revealed that it was where the fairies lived.

I found it near the Old Demon King realm…

Ain strongly regrets not knowing that he is another individual and looks around.

I don’t see Visel or Gulm anymore, but I see a few little named people eating something.

Despite the arrival of Ain, it was dripping with saliva and flesh.

But as soon as we get close, we’ll be attacked.

Ain, who cut it down in a breath, saw what would have been a human being.

…………

What happened and who is this?

From your heart, where you frowned.

Vampire magic.

Shannon’s voice revealed that this object was Roy’s.

Why did Named suddenly betray you?

If so, Visel’s body would have rolled somewhere.It is still impossible to judge anything, but it is obvious that this is not what I expected.

“Marco”

Ha.

“The magic of the dwarf is nearby.”

“No, there is no magic in the gum, so I guess we escaped.”

“Is only my partner dead?”

“─ ─ I would be foolish to think that I was betrayed or abandoned from the beginning.”

Yeah, maybe so.

Regardless of the circumstances, anger arises.

… I don’t know.

Even though the murder and the escape were so far, the dust couldn’t catch up with what happened in places I didn’t know.

I don’t know much about turning down a shoulder watermark.

Nothing, not at all.

“Lord Ain, the name is approaching.”

And Chris.

But Ain only said “I know,” and he saw something that was Roy.

From what I hear, those two have known each other for a long time.

If that was what Marco expected…

“It looks similar.”

Well, that word leaked.

Are they similar?

“Yes – it’s a golden route! Roy is like a Bayolf on a golden route.”

“… why do you think that?”

“I don’t know. I don’t know…. but I think of the end of the golden route as if I had been abandoned by something. “

Ain was intuitive, not a theoretical idea.

But it was similar no matter how many times I thought about it.

Strangely, somehow, I felt like there was something overlapping.

“That’s right… I was going to ask Sera-san after I met that man at Suzeid…”

Why can’t I remember asking?

Nothing to forget.

“Impossible.”

I felt that Ain wasn’t even normal to consult on the golden route.

Then you should ask Serra.

I was going to do it on the previous occasion, but I still don’t remember it because I felt uncomfortable pressing a button and making a mistake.

It’s hard to think that I forgot and forgot.

If so…

(You made me forget.)

Sera did. For some reason.

Ain-sama!

“Nh… sorry… sorry. I’ve been thinking a little bit.”

“I know you’ve noticed something.But now I have a knight… I’m sorry. “

“It’s okay. If anything happens to the knight because of me, it’s too late.Thank you for blaming me. “

I apologize honestly, Ain puffed my cheeks! and slapped her hard.

I tried to change my mind and think about the rest.

The ground rocked the space.

The deepest part of the hole cracked deep and the light leaked.

“Something big is coming.”

“Mr. Archer.”

“Nh, the name around me went to bed.It won’t happen again. “

“Helpful. That’s why the big ones are coming.”

“Just like that. It’s so big, so strong.”

The magic that drifts in the mountains begins to gather, and the sunshine begins to shine.

Something small floats from something that was Roy.

Is that a vampire magic stone?No, something else.From the appearance of drifting magic, I can feel signs similar to the refined magic created at Birdland’s underground laboratory.

Chris, can I talk to you for a second?

“What’s the matter?”

“When I got back to King’s Landing, I had to ask my grandfather.”

Cumming, it’s sudden.

“Ah well… I thought I’d have to ask someone.”

I want Silverd to forgive me for anything I can do to see Sella.

After completing the declaration, I peek into the big hole again.

Lots of hands from where it cracked.It was also likely that each one was the full length of the battleship, and the raised muscles were covered in thick scales.

Eventually, the lion’s face peeks from the crack.

At the same time that Ain and I met each other, the monster was born from the great hole and stretched out his body tall.

“Chris, stay with me.”

Without listening to her reply, she held her body tightly.

Don’t worry, Marco, tell Dill and Archer it’s okay.

Is this it?

“Nh, this”

When I heard the answer, I didn’t pull out the Black Sword Ishtar, but I took out the sword I had previously pulled out.

There is no doubt that the body of the monster that emerged is even bigger than the sea dragon that Ain fought on his youngest day.

I remember his appearance.

(Golden route………………)

A monster with a lion’s head named Vaafar.

He looked like the monster who destroyed the arena that day, and his body was another monster, similar to the one he fought in the sea.

For example, it’s like a snake encountered in the middle of a mountain, or it’s like an insect.

Instead of body hair, the scales that covered the whole body resembled Wyburn’s epidermis.

Ain reached out with one hand to the monster.

Archer turned her back and told Marco.

“I’ll talk to you about getting home and transporting monster materials.”

“But even with Ein’s attack, it wasn’t a single blow…”

“Nh, don’t say stupid things.”

Fighting is not all about pure attack.

For example, if there is a way to do it like Archer, there are other ways… yes.

There’s a special way for her to lose her mind.

“Even after the runaway, she was stronger than me.It’s the same as I am now, and if you can use that power to keep your sanity, it’s different. “

The woman didn’t say either of these words to anyone.

“Besides, if Ain were to use it…”

The power used in the battle against Serra, who even controls magic.

The power expressed is used by Ain to dominate many.

The poison of charm and the curse of loneliness.

Confronting them amounts to recklessness.

There you go.

The monster that emerged from the Great Hole must have wrapped a lot of fear in overwhelming violence.

I don’t know, but if we let him escape here, some towns would sink, and countless sacrifices would have been tough enough.

“My brother (,,), who really uses his power, is so strong that we can’t imagine.”

However, he soon lost light from his eyes and Ain’s tree roots penetrated his chest.They were surrounded by the magic of silver heroes, taking away the lives of irresistible monsters in an instant.

The overwhelming sight took everyone’s attention and shouted the voice of victory.

Ain alone was frustrated by heavy and unpleasant emotions, causing her to swallow her nails with her fist.

Chris, who was next to him, looked at it and made sure that everyone was not paying attention, then took off his arm, which was hugging him, and instead turned his hand around his back.

“… Chris?”

“It means gentle Ain.I’m sure he realized something I didn’t know and broke your heart. “

…………

“But don’t forget. Ain saved a lot of lives.”

He won’t admit that most of the work this time is Ain’s, but it’s no exaggeration to say so.

He hugged him and looked up from his chest from the height difference.

For him, who had feelings in his heart, he healed him exactly like a goddess.

Chris thought Ain would leave anyway, but Ain weakened her neck and put her forehead on her shoulder.

“I realized that you can’t get used to it no matter how many times you go through it.”

“Yes, Ayn is always Ayn.”

“Abstract, but is that a good thing?”

“Of course. My favorite, always kind and courageous, more lovely than anyone else.”

I don’t know what you’re talking about at a time like this, but Ain’s heart was lighter.

With a smile, Chris reached out and stroked Ain’s head.

When I was a kid, it seemed like Ain was still a little girl, but I had a different feeling from then, and I wanted to heal him.
