323 Lesson 287

A body buried in a cemetery within the kingdom of Ringle was stolen by the devil.

Seven bodies were stolen.

Rose's men, headed by Mr. Aur.

The fierce men she trusted most when she was fighting as captain of the kingdom of Ringle, and who crossed more than one another with those Nero Argens men.

The demon targeted his lifetime strength, and the body was stolen from the coffin.

I don't even want to know what you're trying to use.

Apparently, the kingdom that received the news that the body had been stolen was about to prompt another country to warn him immediately, but the idea was dropped off for the reason that it was unlikely to believe the story of "demons stealing the remains” and for the reason that now that the talks--United Nations talks were being withheld, the kingdom of Ringle could not act inadvertently.

But at least they got word from Lord Lloyd's idea of communicating the threat that the "grave wrecking undead” were out there.

"--- United Nations talks"

The official name of the talks was also determined, as was the date on which it would take place.

About a month after I had the Demon King admit defeat.

As I was getting ready for the post-war process and the talks at considerable speed - I was thinking about the future as I clawed on my bed.

I hear Thong snoring, my roommate in the same room.

"A week later..."

Because Master Farga is taking the initiative to cooperate, or very fast.

Even in Miarak, I think it's amazing that the venue where the talks take place is almost complete.

There are many disturbing parts of conducting talks.

The demon king, the perception of the demon clan... you mean the demon?

More importantly, it is difficult to include not only humans but also the heads of the subpeoples who participate.

"Mr. Hayate is coming too..."

Sent by a personally contracted Hoover.

There was a story there about Mr Hayate taking part in this Union meeting.

"I have to work hard...... ok, time to go to bed"

I think so, and when I turn off the magic light on my desk and try to lie down in bed, I hear a cone from the window,

If you look, you can see something like a little bird made of light with a window on it.

I didn't know what it meant for a moment, but I recognize it as light and see what's going on.

"... could it be"

When I open the window, the bird made of light goes straight down - staying on Kazuki's shoulder in front of the quarters.

"... Kazuki?"

"Sorry I'm late. Do you have a minute?"

"Oh, I don't mind at all."

Though at night, it's not around 12 o'clock in time enough.

Wearing shoes, I went outside and turned to Kazuki in front of the quarters, and he gave me a sorry look.

"What's wrong?"

"Hey, I need to talk to you. Actually, it could have been tomorrow, but I thought we should talk soon."

I wonder what Kazuki is about to talk about.

Right, you made up your mind.

Then I should hear his answer.

For now, move to an open place away from the quarters so we can talk easily.

"Something doesn't remind me of that time"

Kazuki, sitting back on the moonlighted raw material, squeaked so nostalgically.

At that time......

"When Kazuki came here before the first battle?"

"Oh.... it was when I talked to you, scared to fight"

The first battle we experienced with the Demon King's Army.

Kazuki, who preceded it, was afraid to fight.

I still remember the story of that time.

"I was suddenly surprised to see you again."

"Ha ha... Fine, I got out of the castle without thinking"

'Cause then the seniors came.'

"Oh, you're serious.... was, what, a prospect"

If you look at the forest behind you subtly, you see two familiar figures.

Seniors and... the other one, maybe, Mr. Flana.

The two of us who had eyes with me would hide behind a tree with an incredible face.

"Usato, what's wrong?"

"Oh, no, it's nothing."

Are you here to see how you're doing worried?

I'm hiding for some reason, so let's just shut up about Kazuki.

"... me, I'm still scared of the fight, and I don't want to do it as much as possible"

"Yeah."

"If the future world doesn't need strength as a brave man, I'm willing to let it go"

Kazuki would do that.

I know very well that he doesn't like to fight.

That's why if you don't have to stand as a brave man anymore, you don't have to throw it away.

"It's a bit of a weird analogy, but even in games, novels, if you take down your last enemy, it's mostly over."

……

"Our last enemy was the Demon King. Before entering Demon King territory, I thought somewhere in my mind that if I defeated the Demon King, it would all be over and I wouldn't fight as a brave man."

Hear Kazuki's words silently.

"But you don't have that sweet story. It's not the end of defeating the Demon King and losing the Demon King's army. This world is still going on."

"... right"

From now on, it will be a matter of demons and humans.

In addition to that, the devil is starting to leap.

Usato, I'll stay in this world.

Suddenly, I see Kazuki's face unexpectedly in the declared language.

He stretched out his back looking up at the night sky, shaking it off.

"Actually. The answer itself has been decided for some time now. I still have something to do. Seniors and Usat will stay in this world, so don't stay. I'll stay in this world at my will and serve as a brave man..."

"Kazuki......"

"But now I've made up my mind here. Finally, I can move on."

Kazuki smiles bitterly and puts his hands on his own chest.

"Honesty, that's so sad. When I think I'll never see my father and mother again, I feel like I can't help it... I feel so bad that I can't put it into words"

……

"But I thought. I wonder if I can live with my chest stretched, throwing everything away like this and going back to the original world. I was wondering if my parents had a way of life that I could face."

I just listen to him.

Bad consolation here should not be spoken of.

Because to do so is, in itself, to think hard and be rude to him for choosing

"So I try not to regret my way of life"

"... well"

Kazuki wasn't strange which world he was choosing.

There was just as much chance of returning to the original world in search of an original peaceful life and family as there is of remaining in this world as there is now.

I don't know why I split that up.

But I... I want to respect the answers he gave in troubles.

"Well, let's work with each other"

"Oh, whenever you're in trouble, you can count on me."

I'm not lost in Kazuki anymore.

While I rejoice in that fact, I cast my voice behind me.

"---No more worries?"

"What's up, Usato?"

Kazuki looks strange at me for calling out behind her, but gives a surprise look to her senior and Frana, who came out of the woods.

"Flana, and the seniors too!? Why..."

"No, because I was normally worried..."

Flana looks bad.

Seniors, on the other hand, look full of confidence as usual with their arms around them.

"That's Usat you. I didn't know you'd notice my hidden form."

"I noticed right away..."

Though I was still seeing dark hair from the shadow of a tree.

I think it's too cluttered to call it a hidden shape.

But seniors don't lose their spare time, they rather get in a good mood.

"Huh, can I take that as a metaphor to go away and find me wherever I am...!?"

"Well, if you're a senior, you'll soon know where you are."

There will be no more visible presence than this man.

Rumors and stuff are going to be out soon, and if I have to look for them, I'm going to know exactly where they are.

……

"... no, don't light it normally"

When you react like that, you can normally light this one up.

Well, with that kind of interaction, I turn back to Kazuki.

"First, we need to bring the next meeting to a successful conclusion."

"Oh, let's keep our minds together so we can deal with whatever comes"

The talks are in a week.

Let's do everything we can by then.

Then Frana, next to Kazuki, calls out.

"It's that meeting, but I've decided to follow it."

"Oh, really?"

"Father... you said the Elf clan chief would join you. I was told to come to Miarak, too."

Right, not just the beast man, but also the elf......

That's going to be a really massive meeting.

"I need to be prepared for this so that whatever happens at last..."

It could be something in history in many ways, because it would also reveal who Master Farga is.

Speaking of which, Mr. Usato,

"Yes?"

Turn to your senior voice.

I lean my neck at her with my fingers on my chin like I was worried about something.

"The Devil King's Watch... or welcome, will be you and... maybe me or Kazuki... one thing I've wondered about"

"Something that bothered me...?"

"The Demon King can't come alone. I'm sure the escorts will follow... who's coming?"

……

Certainly not an ordinary soldier would be an escort, and a member of the Legion Leader class would come to escort you.

Legion Leader Class......

It depends on the appearance of a dark wizard with a smile on his back of his brain and a beating on this one.

"As it is, well, it's the same no matter who comes. It's better than being called a demon and scared."

"Oh, yes..."

He's a troublesome guy, but he doesn't hate it.

If you followed the Demon King, you wouldn't suddenly be beaten up because there's a position there as a demon king's escort.

... You're not gonna hit me, are you?

I don't know what to do, I'm worried about you now.
