The last day of the tournament.

The battle between us, the Royal Family and the Holy Empire.

Before the tournament begins, we are given time to think about the order in which we will compete.

We go back to the waiting room.

"Mr. Julius."

Waiting for us in the room was Dantalion, a beautiful white girl with long black hair.

She used to be the captain of the Eastern Federation and a demon.

For various reasons, she was reincarnated as a human and is now my wife.

"Ah, I'm Anue. Aneue~"

My brother-in-law Michael jumps on Dantalion's body with a smile.

Mikael nuzzles his face into her ample breasts and nuzzles her.

Dantalion does not mind and ruffles his brother-in-law's fluffy hair.

"Hey Mica! Stop it! That's disrespectful to women!"

"Gaiusu ha katabutsu desu ka?"

Gaius pulls his brother-in-law off of him.

"I'm sorry."

"No, don't be shy. We are a family. Right, Michael?

"Oh! Aneue, I know!"

Oh dear," sighs the younger brother.

Yes, yes, it's great that you guys get along so well.

"So, Dantalion. What's the matter? Did you come to see me because you love me?"

I meant it as a joke.

"........................"

Kah ...... and Dantalion blushes red to the tips of his ears.

"Brother, it's embarrassing to hear you say that."

Gaius kicks my leg.

"Gaius, are you jealous?"

"No."

"You're jealous of Aneue?

"No, no, no!"

Giggling, Gaius stretches his brother-in-law's cheek.

"...... sorry. You're not well, are you?"

"Oh, why? I don't mind at all, in fact I'm glad to see you."

"Well, ......."

Dantalion's face turns red and he covers his mouth.

"...... I am happy to see you, too."

"Oh, yeah. You can come and see me all you want. We're family."

Dantalion's face turned red as he watched.

"What's the matter? Do you have a fever?"

"""Huh~......"""

Elise, Sakura, and Gaius sigh.

"You know, that brother of yours, Julius-han, he's just like you, Julius."

The three of them laugh.

"What? What is it?"

"Yes, yes. Dantalion, by the way. You must have something you wanted to see me about.

Gaius says, and Dantalion seems to regain his composure.

"Yes, sir. I heard what happened.

"Heard? What?"

Dantalion turns around and says with a serious face.

"I heard that the dean of the Holy Empire is threatening Kazuma-san and the others."

She shares with us what she hears.

"We were walking down the hallway of the waiting room to go support Julius and his friends. The head of the imperial academy had gathered the students and was talking to them about something.

He was curious and decided to listen in.

"...... In conclusion, the headmaster of the Imperial Academy has placed a [curse] on Kazuma-san and the others."

"Curse ...... because ......?"

Gaius rolls his eyes.

I was more like ...... I knew it was him.

"Dantalion. As a former demon, do you know the extent of the curse that Kazuma and the others are under?"

"Yes. It's the curse of obedience. It's a powerful spell that will kill you if you break the surgeon's orders.

"What ...... is that, then ...... Kazuma and the others are being forced to do what the school principal says!"

Sakura is indignant.

The members of the Royal Family all had similar expressions of anger on their faces.

"...... I see. I thought it was strange that those good-natured guys suddenly changed their attitude.

Before the final battle, Kazuma tried to kill Mikael who tried to talk to him.

He did not mean it after all.

What a bastard. ......

"I can't forgive you for doing such a terrible thing to Kazuma!

"...... let's report this to the headmaster of the Luciferian school. We can't overlook this.

"No, no."

I shake my head and they all look at me.

"Why, brother?"

"The trouble with the curse of obedience is that not even the sorcerer can lift it. Even if you question him, the head of the imperial academy can't lift it. At worst, he will deny it."

And there is a danger that the curse will be triggered and Kazuma and the others will die.

"With a ...... like that, then Kazuma will have to die, won't he? It's ...... sad."

Dantalion gently pats Mikael's despondent shoulder.

"It's all right, Mikael."

"But ......"

"We have a gentleman who can do the impossible. Don't you think, Julius?

Dantalion's soft gaze and everyone's expectant eyes turned to him.

"Yeah, I'll take care of it."

The members' faces light up.

"Surely my brother can handle it ......, right?"

"Of course! Who do you think you are? It's Aniue!"

"I don't know what you're talking about, Mika-yan, but ...... I know what you mean."

I look at their faces and nod.

"Okay. Then I need your help with something. Give me your ears."

I tell the members about the plan I've devised.

Everyone nods in agreement.

"Okay, let's go with your idea. You have no objection?

""""Of course!""""

After a pause.

<

I hear the headmaster of the school, Lucifer, make an announcement.

We leave the room.

"Mr. Julius!"

Dantalion, the only one left, looks up at me with a slightly worried expression.

"Don't look at me like that. You're ruining a beautiful woman."

"...... please stop. It's embarrassing."

"What?"

"...... already."

Dantalion steps forward and cupped my cheeks in his hands.

He kisses me lightly and smiles.

"Good luck."

"Oh, yeah. Okay, I'm off."

I turned around to see a grim-faced Gaius glaring at me.

"What's wrong?"

"Nothing."

"No, I don't think there's anything wrong with that."

"No, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no! Poof!"

Gaius kicks my leg and runs ahead.

"I've been thinking about this lately," he says. Gaius is an aneue?"

"What are you talking about?"

Anyway, we were ready for the match.
