Do You Think Someone Like You Can Defeat the Demon King?

The Frams left Sheol with dozens of surviving Original followers.

Immediately Nekt will tell the Church that this village has been destroyed.

In that case, it was possible that the Church Knight would visit in large numbers, erase the trail, and - even the survivors would be processed (...).

No matter how many Origins, you can't leave people like that alone.

It is an action based on that idea.

Tia's body is wrapped and transported in the water magic of Eterna so as not to be harmed, and he asks the guild to transport him to the King's Capital.

The bodies of Kinder and Claudia were blown away without a trace, so there was no need to recover them.

It is the nearest town where the Alliance exists, Meal, that heads in a group.

A town with a population of about two thousand, where survivors might be able to be protected.

Gadio, on the other hand, split with the Flams and headed singly to the King's Capital.

In its hands, the material entrusted to Milkit by Dafiz is held.

The church will quickly try to cover up the case.

We need to ask Welsey to publish everything before they hit us.

The march with the survivors is time-consuming, but you can return to the King's Capital more quickly than a carriage on your own.

It was after noon that he handed Welsey the materials and finished explaining the circumstances.

Then he wrote the article, printed it, and at night it was scattered around the king's capital - the next morning, everything that happened in Sheol should be known to the people of the king's capital.

◇ ◇ ◇

In the evening Gadio returned to his home.

Walking through the gate and onto the cobblestone leading to the mansion, I find a woman sitting in front of the front door.

It was Keraina.

I noticed Gadio's footsteps. She looks up and smiles.

But its mouth is trembling.

My eyes moisten with tears, and the words I have prepared for you do not come out well.

So I had no choice but to welcome him everywhere.

"... Welcome back"

That stuck him in Gadio's chest more than lined up the words I had thought about.

Are you qualified to respond to yourself?

Even though he returns, he says he's strengthening it even more, rather than cutting off his untrained to the tier.

But blaming guilt and not trying to reward healthy Keraina is just self-satisfaction.

If you really think it's bad, you should tell her what she wants.

No matter how much you blame yourself for it, that's the biggest punishment.

"I'm home, Keraina"

Listening to Gadio, she stood up.

And I buried my face in its chest, wondering if it had approached me with a fluttering foothold.

His arm hugs her back.

Gadio had a bitter look on his face somewhere, feeling each other's body temperature.

◇ ◇ ◇

The next morning, the four Flams return late to the King's Capital.

As we walked side by side on Central District Boulevard, we noticed that there was a different air from the usual noise.

What the different people hold in their hands and talk about is the divergent newspapers of the Welshees.

The operation, apparently, worked.

Then - the church was immediately thought to issue a statement of objection, but there were reasons why they could not.

A number of materials recovered from Satyrus' hidden rooms.

And Milkit was entrusted by Dafiz, a document with a church stamp.

Furthermore, the testimony of the Origins who escaped from the village of Sheol.

These three pieces of evidence had made the article strongly persuasive.

Some human beings who were more distrustful of Originism than the former fanned, and demonstrations surrounding the church occurred.

There were even assaults on priests, resulting in clashes between church knights and participants, and numerous injuries.

Over time, the situation persists.

The upper echelons were pressed to respond - as a result, two days after the article was published, Cardinal Satooki Ranagarki made a statement in the cathedral chapel in the North Side.

He acknowledges the existence of human experiments on the necromancy, and the corpse (...) that the Church was conducting, and swears and deeply apologizes that it will not recur again.

He also revealed that he had already (...) disposed of Farmo Fimio, who was responsible for it, and Slovanak Seiti, who had illegally purchased drugs from Satyrus.

The disposition consists of, in addition to the deprivation of cardinal status, a decade of confinement.

Participants in the demonstration also lowered their drinks to heavier dispositions than they had imagined.

But this is not the end of Satooki's speech.

I would say that this incident was caused by a “pride” full of people inside the church.

And for similar reasons, it was a symbol of its pride that it promised to lower the rates for medical practice by priests and nuns.

A very small number of humans slapped this as a performance to avoid criticism.

Some also questioned why it was not Fedoro Maximus, the Pope, who issued the statement, or Toizzo Trucchio, rumored to be the next Pope.

But for the majority of humans, it doesn't matter what happened in a rural town called Sheol or something.

Even the demonstrations were, the voices raised by the participants had at some point changed the argument from dissatisfaction with the case to dissatisfaction with the church on a daily basis.

And they got an apology from the Church and a disposition of the Cardinals, plus a loot called a reduction in the price of health care (...).

The winners were satisfied, and the disturbance ceased for a moment.

◇ ◇ ◇

The flams gathered at Leach's mansion sat on the couch in the guest room, waiting for Welsey to return from the cathedral.

And when I hear the content of Satooki's statement from her, I get the look that each of them thinks of.

Most of all, I wasn't sure about the ink, but I was leaning my neck next to Eterna.

Among them, Reach in particular seemed surprised at the disposition of the two Cardinals.

"What the hell is Satooki thinking, he can't believe he's holding the Cardinals both forbidden..."

"In addition to more dispositions than you can imagine, Necromancy is experimenting with the dead, so you give the impression that you're not experimenting with living humans, and you keep your image down to church to a minimum."

To Eterna, who calmly analyzes, Reach argues out of a hurry or a little early.

"But the Cardinal is the chief executive of the Church, and if it lacks both of us, it will not avoid a decline in the functioning of the organization. I just think it had something to do with it."

"It could be a factional feud - there seems to have been a rivalry among the Cardinals, too -?

Welsey said as she stood, looking at the notebook.

"Hey Mr. Leach, was Satooki Ranagarki the man at the top of the church knight?

"Yes, you're right, they say there's a strong connection to the kingdom's military."

In response to a question from Flam, Reach answered with a supplementary explanation.

Satooki is often described as a "non-churchy person” with strong connections to the military.

Realist for better or worse.

The bearer of ideas unsuitable for religious communities worshipping God, but that is why its presence was essential to the Church.

"Did you come out of your way to say that it was the person who decided on the content of this statement?"

"I don't know, I can't say for sure... but it's possible"

Once vacant, Reach continued his words.

"Pope Fedoro and Cardinal Toizzo are the tenants who created the current body of the Church, it is not like them to acknowledge the existence of a light necromancy. In addition, the one remaining Cardinal Tarch oversees the medical field. I mean, he shouldn't want to cut rates or anything."

"It was Satooki-driven by the erasure method, is that it?"

To Gadio's words, he nods.

"Does that mean that the guy named Satooki kicked his rivals off in order for him to be pope?

Milkit spoke in a fine voice.

It was Wellsey, not Reach, who answered that.

"I think that's a good chance. Well, speaking would have increased his presence."

"But we still have Toizzo, so as things stand, it's going to be hard for Satuki to become pope"

"Then I wonder if you're thinking about clapping on something again and kicking the rest of the Cardinals off, too. I'm worried about you."

Welsey looks at a page in the notebook and fingers a certain name.

"The woman who was present at the speech. The rest of them were just faces I saw, but she was the only one with no information."

"What's your name?

Reach asks.

"Echidna Ipeira"

It was Eterna who responded with a tingling tremor at hand to the name told.

She glances at Gadio's face.

Then he was staring into the void with his murderous eyes.

"Echidna... leader of Kimaira..."

In a low voice, Gadio said.

In other words - they are enemies of Tia and his companions.

"Kimyra is definitely the one in the dossier you brought me from Sheol."

"Oh, primarily (...) research to embed the core in the monster's flesh and operate it as a powerful weapon"

"Hmm, it's weird when it comes to that. Why is this echidna the only woman involved in research when all the others were people with deep connections to Satooki? I banished Farmo, who took care of me, even though it was no other Satooki."

Without Farmo, the remaining childrens, as well as Kimyra, should be in a bad position within the church.

There should be no resentment, but no feeling of gratitude.

Moreover, being present at the speech meant that a woman named Echidna also had the trust from Satooki.

"Weapon… maybe Satooki is going to set it up in Revenge"

When Leach spoke, his gaze focused on him.

Flam asks tilting his neck.

"Revenge?"

"Yeah, he took over his current position and ground from his father. I've heard stories about his father being involved in the war on demons."

"Does that mean you're trying to use Kimyra to avenge the Demons?

"It's just my own imagination though. But in order to do so, we need him to assume the power of the Pope."

It's - it's a person's desire.

At least Satooki's movement seemed to Flam to be pointing away from Origin's will.

"Well, there's a smelly move, but the two Cardinals have been disposed of and scratched by the Church's trust, so I think you can honestly be happy there."

The actions of the Frams weakened the Church.

Necromancy disappears, and the absence of Farmo makes it harder for Childrens to move either.

That is a certain fact.

"So I tried to arrange a fancy dinner today, and if you don't mind, so do you all."

"Brother, can I join you!?

"Of course."

"Yay!

Hands up, joyful Welsey.

"Naturally, as a host."

"Wow!

But he was instantly thrust down, and only his face turned to tears with his hands poked up.

Her cheerfulness saw the air of the field, and the flams laughed unexpectedly.

Of course there is no reason to decline to participate.

They all enjoyed the party and made a scene until the night.

However, Gadio was the only one who had a dark look from time to time...... now I could only keep it calm.

◇ ◇ ◇

Later at night, the flams returned home.

It is how the case on Necromancy has finally come to a close and the shoulder strength has fallen out.

After finishing the sleep support, they split into each room - the ink sat on the edge of the bed and was somehow hugged by Eterna from her back.

And this again. For some reason, Eterna is definitely smelling ink.

"... Eterna, what are you doing?

"I'm smelling it"

"I'm asking you why!

"Became a habit"

"I knew you were a pervert. Ah!

That being said, ink doesn't resist.

Because my body understands that it is useless to do so.

Eterna looks like this and is pretty strong in arms.

He said, "Very little compared to the flam," but there is still a difference between heaven and earth compared to ink, which is a weak ordinary person.

"I wonder if I'm the only one who feels Eterna's distance is approaching from one incident at Sheol"

"I don't think it's my fault, we're actually getting close"

"I'm aware..."

"That's because I miss you"

Resurrected Kinder and Claudia.

That time I spent with the two of you, it could have been a mess.

But to say that the complete reproduction of personality was successful is not “impossible”.

What if Eterna kept living in the King's Capital without breaking up with you two?

If Eterna had visited them before they died.

Such a reproduction of possibilities.

Everything was a lie, too well done to cut it off.

"You didn't forgive me for that."

The body has no trace left.

Ink only hears sounds, but Eterna, of her own volition, erased them before Kinder and Claudia (...) started running wild.

"Because there was ink. It reminded me of the living human voice and smell. And then... maybe I should have come to the grave"

"What do you mean?

"At that point, I had broken up with your father and mother. There was a separation."

So I could accept death as death.

"But you miss things, don't you? You're trying to bury that loneliness with me, aren't you?

"That's what's gonna happen"

Saying, Eterna lay down on the bed with the ink involved.

"Hey, hey, say it's too strong!

If you notice, they were shaped like hugs from the front.

"You sweet 50-year-old."

The ink pokes the witch's forehead with her index finger, looking clear in the front.

It seems plausible, so there was a risk of piercing him in the eye, but he seems to have hit the right spot.

Nevertheless, it is really an exchange that we do not know which is older.

Even so, Eterna says it off with a good face somewhere.

"Not fifty, sixty years old"

"That's extra awful!

When she was thrust in like that, Eterna laughed with pleasure, caught and the ink grinned with kerakera.

You don't have to remember while you're talking to her.

I can forget the pain while I'm laughing.

At least until the scar heals.

The days of Eterna sweetening to the younger girl are going to last for a while.

◇ ◇ ◇

Fassa, and as the bandage fell on the bed, Flam touched the slightly reddish cheeks of the mill kit to ascertain its feel.

Then a soft, warm palm is layered from above it, and the two sit back on the bed and stare at each other (...) often, as usual.

"Speaking of which, Milkit, when you were running away at Sheol, didn't you say anything?

Fu recalls, Flam asks.

"Oh, is that it? I never knew what to call my relationship with your husband."

"Aren't you a partner?

"I'm glad to hear that too, but I was hoping to be more specific."

Flam, who was convinced by the status quo, realizes for the first time since he was told.

Indeed, the term partner may be abstract for the price.

"So when I was talking to Mr. Dafiz and I after your husband was gone, I finally found the answer to that"

"I'm curious about that, too. Hey, can you tell me?

"Yes......"

Milkit lays his hands on his own chest.

Nature and the hands of the flam also separated and sank into the futon to support the body.

A gaze pointed straight at you.

The beauty of Milkit's eyes hasn't changed since we met.

However, the silver hair regained its shine, the skin's blood tone improved, and the body became quite feminine rounded.

Look at her in total, she's so much cuter than she was back then - Flam unexpectedly falls in love.

Such milkit's, peachy lips opened and spinned the words.

"I love your husband."

Declared with a full grin, Flam's thought stops completely.

I love you.

What is love, it is love.

Love and I mean - partners, even partners, become couples.

"Stay, stay, stay, stay, stay!

"Ma?"

"Wait, wait, Milkit! Hey, hey, suddenly it's too late to keep up with your husband's brain!

Phew, and Flam's face stains bright red.

Put your hands on your cheeks to cool it down, but soon your hands will get hotter.

Still, I stuck my face in the pillow if I didn't do something about my head causing overheating.

It's not my own, sweet scent tickles my nostrils.

It was a pillow from the mill kit.

More body temperature rises, and the heart carving the beat with Bakubaku pumps hot blood all over his body.

"Fuhi-an!

The odd flam immediately raises his face and now sticks his face in the futon.

Suddenly he started moving like a broken toy. Mainly, Milkit can't hide the confusion.

"Um, I... have I said something that weird?

"Heh, I mean changed, all of a sudden, ah, oh, love or something, and you're surprised"

"Surprise, is it? But I think love is the best way to feel about my husband."

Keep your face buried in the futon, only point your gaze at the mill kit.

She's not so ashamed that Flam seems to be an asshole to be upset by herself.

"... hmm?

Flam realizes.

I was wondering if Milkit's “love” was anything but romantic.

"Hey Milkit, could it be..."

"Yes, sir"

"I love you now, you want to be me and my lover, or something else?

"Here, here, here, lover, is it!?

Now it's time for the mill kit to turn red.

Bohun, and cheeks dyed like strawberries.

No, on the contrary, it even tides around the ears and clavicles.

"Duh, how did you come to such a conclusion!?

"No, 'cause I usually use that word when I say I love you"

"Were you!? No... Speaking of which, yes... right..."

A voice that gradually tones down.

The body of the mill kit leans flutterly to the side to match it - lay still.

And I covered my face with both hands, and it solidified.

"I don't mean to... No, it's not that I don't like it, I definitely like it... that, but if so, what can I say..."

"As it were, well, there's a lot to say about love. Look, family love, fraternity! In that sense, sure, I mean Milkit too..."

Don't just embarrass Milkit.

So determined, Flam wakes up his body, puts his fist firmly gripped over his thigh and tells the tension with an irresistible look.

"I love you, don't I?

But if they say that's family love, Flam would shake his neck to the side.

It's not like fraternity, then how much love - she also didn't know the answer to that.

"... thank you, thank you. But... oh really, it's more embarrassing to be told"

'Cause you're embarrassed to say it.

"It's not nice to embarrass your husband. But I'm in trouble... then how can I tell you how I feel about this?"

I thought I finally got the answer.

I love you, I don't know any other words yet Milkit.

When Fram approached her on all fours like that, he touched his hand covering his face.

"Your husband?

To that feeling, Milkit asked how it was from between her fingers.

The flam's face seen from there was still red, but it looks quite calm compared to earlier.

She laughs at Milkit,

"I like you, Milkit"

That's what I said.

Out of the way, my chest sounds and feels like I can tighten at the same time.

But it is never painful and I feel comfortable.

"Yeah, why don't you just“ like ”me? I love you. Then it's just too heavy, right?

Sure, then I'm not embarrassed at all, but I feel comfortable saying it.

Milkit's face remains as bright red as ever, and unlike Flam, he hasn't been able to regain his composure.

But in order to respond to the Lord's favor, we gaze and convey our thoughts.

"Uh, well... I like your husband, too"

Flam snorts.

"Eh heh..."

And I hung up.

My mind seems to be in tune, and I'm sexually happy with that.

"Hehe..."

So she smiles the same way and repeats it again.

"I love your husband."

Flam hugged her when she said so.

It's just that the exchange of words won't make you happy and happy.

It's not meant for the family either.

Nor against a friend.

It's a warm, inundated feeling to the depths of your heart, an unknown feeling.

It looks like a liquid, but it's also round like a sphere.

An irreplaceable treasure that I first acquired when I met Milkit.

It's a beautiful blossoming seed that grows inside of itself, every time we touch each other.

Fram himself still doesn't know the name of that emotion - even as it is for a while now, I thought so.

◇ ◇ ◇

The next morning, a man visited a guild in the West End.

Still no sign of Flam or Gadio there.

Ella, who was out early by chance, was getting bored and elbowed at the counter - but with what he had done, she woke up at once.

The tall, slutty, green-haired man was a celebrity she knew well.

"Linus Redianz......"

Linus, who visits the guild, smiles at Eela, showing her white teeth.

She was the one who accidentally suppressed her chest and was about to fall, but her role as a receptionist would not allow it.

"Hey, I heard there's a Gadio in the guild here."

"If you're a master, you're not out yet."

Eela wearing a cat, in front of a man in the middle of her liking.

"I knew it, it was too soon...... but why did he take on another West Side guild master?

"Isn't that... because Fram Apricot was there"

"Oh? Why is Fram here?"

"I don't know what's going on around there, either, for some reason there are signs of slavery on your cheeks, and maybe you got caught up in trouble?

"... a sign of slavery?

Linus' expression turns into something serious.

He was a serious face too, Ella, but he was nowhere near it.

When Flam suddenly said he was going back to the country, he thought it was strange.

But now I finally know why.

When he leaves the counter, he heads silently to the exit.

"Oh? Is the master good?

"Just tell him I'm here, I've got another errand to run"

That's what I left out, Linus.

"That asshole... he made fun of me!

If you kick hard enough to recess the stone's ground, you start traveling at a speed that won't even go unnoticed.

A misplaced woman fell from the shock wave alone.

Linus stopped his leg and reached out to the person and apologized, this time moving on the roof.

And he rushes through high places with no obstacles, as if the birds were flying around.

Across the street from him, of course - was Gene Intage's (asshole) room, where he worked swallowing research at the Royal Castle.
