He Didn't Want to Be the Center of Attention, Hence, after Defeating the Demon Lord, He Became

The Transformation Crystal used in the Transformation Magic Formation is an ancient legacy called the Star Relic (Stella Fact), according to the Master.

Generally speaking, the existence of a transfer magic team is recognized, and anyone who can activate a magic team is indispensable, but it can be used by anyone.

King Klaus, royalty including Manarina - and a dozen others, including the leader of a branch that I have never seen before - were escorted by the Knights' elite, led by Cody, into the audience seat on the Albain side set up at the observatory in the Northern Valley.

A valley sandwiched between cliffs on both sides. A forest spreads over the cliff, but it can be seen at a glance that only around the observatory is man-made.

This stone observatory was once built after the forest was cleared. It was created to investigate the trends of the monsters that inhabit the Northern Valley.

Near the observatory, descend into the grassy area. Julius, who came down late, seemed to be worried about losing at the descent speed.

"... what kind of training... no, the Albain Fire Dragon was originally descending fast..."

"I wonder if it's a big body and the shape of the wings. At flight speed, the Black Dragon has a minute."

"Otherwise, I'll take care of it. Riders are not ornaments."

The boy king with purple hair on black and brown skin immediately regained his attention and followed the Kintetsu Knights into the observatory. Sphere also put his spear on a sheath with his back and headed for Miralka, Eileen and Yuma, who were out of the observatory.

Confirming that there was no one around, Eileen talked to me who lived with her rather than Sphere.

"Good work, Dick, Sphere. I was worried about one thing, but shouldn't the dragons have metastasized?

(I can't, but I can fly in time. Shoulder habit is important)

"Dad doesn't want to show the king that Mr. Banning is not a regular firedragon as much as possible."

"I wonder if he was also a noble class... the Rokugoku. We're bringing them in, and the Albains are coming out of the Duke's house, and even the Chancellor. I hope they don't get strangely hardened after seeing the results of the match."

Miralka and Eileen came dressed just in case, or even in battle. Yuma is also dressed as a priest, and I feel tight watching this.

"You've been here to deepen our mutual understanding and to fill in the gaps. God crosses borders and looks to mercy without division into all life."

(I would really like Elsein to understand that idea.)

"Ah... I can't believe Dick agreed to my teachings... oh, I want to put Dick's soul back in its original vessel..."

"Yuma sees Dick's soul... what does it look like?

"I see Dick always protecting Sphere."

I want to tear up the spirits behind me or something. I think there is something overprotective about myself, so I am ashamed to be told that I am always protecting it.

"Verlaine is coming later. From the beginning, he said that his brother seemed upset. Besides, Mr. Rimse, I don't have enough time for" when it's time to go. "Shelley's still here, but she'll come back later."

(When it's time... that means you'll soon be able to return to your original body. I want to go back before I forget how I feel.)

"Father, I'm glad. I miss you, but if you don't go back, your moms won't be able to sleep much longer."

"Well, don't worry... if you sleep for three hours, it won't affect your health."

"Eh, isn't that too short? I've been asleep for six hours... but I usually sleep about nine hours."

"I've had a lot of rest, so Eileen... no, I don't care, but if I was taller, I'd wonder if I could do more as Sphere's mother."

Yuma and Sphere don't differ much in height - Yuma is a little taller, but Sphere is born with few signs of growth, so she'll catch up soon.

"I love having Yuma stroke me or sing a lullaby with a gentle voice."

"Hmm... I'm so happy to be able to do something like a mother to Sphere, too... I'm more like a sister than a daughter... can I hug her?

"Ha, yes... fuah, that smells good..."

It only looks like girls are hugging each other, but it's my mother and daughter. And even though I'm being hugged, Yuma's embracing power makes me feel the depth of the nose of a person who will be called the godmother in the future, too deep a mercy.

--But her head was filled with the "pleasure" of touching her soul to the point of feeling treacherous.

(Ah... the wavelengths of Sphere and Dick's soul behind them are mixed up, and this is an irreplaceable warmth that comes into contact with me. What an honorable thing about my magic, Dick, and the strong shine of this new soul that your magic came together. Thank you, God, for this journey and the miracle that created new life. And hopefully, one day, by the touch of our soul and Dick's...)

"Um, Yuma? I know how happy you feel, but don't you feel like you shouldn't?

"... hah... I'm sorry. I'm so happy, I'm so happy."

"It's always been tough on the orphanage, and you don't get much chance to see Sphere. It's a precious opportunity, so make sure you're adorable."

Yes ♪ Miralka is also your mother, so let's get along.

Miralka would be ashamed of that. Actually, it looks like it's best for your mother. "

"I think I'm better at teaching than everyone else... but Eileen seems to be good at teaching exercise. Yuma probably shouldn't teach much."

"You don't have to tell me, so I'll hug you a lot from now on ♪"

Does Yuma forget that her thoughts are being conveyed to me - I don't even feel like I've reached some crazy idea.

But not only Yuma, but Miralka and Eileen also hug with Sphere in turn. When I was hugged by someone who had never been hugged normally, I was perhaps upset - Sphere dared not say anything while enjoying my upset. My daughter's emotions have grown too much, half joy and half confusion as a father.

◆ ◇ ◆

Spectator seating at the observatory. There is a "slide crystal" that reflects the sights reflected in the "vision crystal" installed in various parts of the valley.

Pretty advanced magic tools are used, but they all appear to have been excavated from a nearby ruins labyrinth. I'd like to dive into the labyrinth if I could spare time, but it's a waste of time for now.

(Father, I want to go to the labyrinth with you!

(I see. I'll dive when I calm down again. Manarina gave me a "Royal Sign", so I should be in the depths of the ruins labyrinth.)

Princess Manarina told me she wanted to be my mother.

(I see....)

The desire to jump over and become a mother inspires imagination by pranks. But if I were to say that, my place would be lost to King's Landing.

- Really? Does making a princess your mother make your father angry?

(In a spiritual sense, there's no problem.....)

-She's coming? What do you mean it's not coming back? Dad, can you tell me?

In this "question posture", Sphere does not take a step until he teaches. With the intention of providing social education, I decided to teach as little as possible.

(It doesn't make you feel like a mother, but when Manarina actually becomes a mother, the child born will be a king candidate. It's very difficult.)

(Hmm... so I'm going to be the king's sister?

(Well, it's an analogy. Your father is not thinking of something bad for Princess Manarina, remember that.)

(Why not? That's why it's impossible.)

(Wait, wait! That's really nice of you to wait a little longer...!

"On behalf of His Majesty King Elsein and King Albain, I have the honour to greet Cody Elsted, who also serves as Commander of the Knights Corps and Commander of the Guard."

As Sphere approached the question position, Cody, who was escorting the king in the audience seat, stood up and began to greet him before the match. "Elsted" is the family name that Cody bears when he is dressed as a man, but this is the last name his mother took before she changed her surname.

There was also Prime Minister Lowe, but now he was disempowered to speak in public when suspicion of using his master for interrogation came to light, considering his own defense in the "snake" crusade. Now the most trustworthy thing for the King is the face of the Demon King Crusaders who fought the Snake.

It was a young man with silver hair and blue and golden eyes who stood on the side of the demon kingdom to greet him.

Probably one of the six devils. The magic makes you feel closer to Beatrice - definitely a close friend of Beatrice.

"I am Ashtle-Farid, Duke of the Kingdom of Elsein. Today's horse dragon battle is an opportunity to reaffirm friendship and confirm the position of both countries in their national relations. I hope that the representative of Albain will do his best, but when His Majesty Julius is victorious, I would like you to promptly disclose the whereabouts of His Majesty the former King Verlaine."

― ― The audience seat on the Albain side was rough. His Majesty Klaus took control of it immediately, but Elsein did the same.

I don't think I can speak on the assumption that my King loses, but if I win from the first word, there's nothing I can do about the request, even if I'm received looking down at Albain. And there's something about the way we hide the Devil.

(Does Uncle Ashtle hate losing? You didn't see him when he went to Elsein, did you?)

(Since the Roku Magic Gods did not gather in the Demon King Castle, they turned around and headed for the Demon King Castle.)

It is not strange that the six devils who lost the battle by fighting were careless. I dared not confirm Elsein's affections with Verlaine, but it would still be sweet.

But he's probably Beatrice's father, so he doesn't want to be hostile. Wouldn't Beatrice have been hostile to Albain about being summoned and leaving him?

(Why don't you call your sister Beatrice later when your mother's here?

(That's it. Sphere, you're starting to get ahead of me.)

(Ehehe... because I'm always with my father)

Sphere that illuminates by holding the iron mask down. Perhaps my daughter is the cutest girl in the world. It would be even more cute if you took off the iron mask.

His Majesty the King Klaus takes a seat immediately, as the Duke of Ashtle's remarks are frustrating. At this time, everyone in both countries listened without hesitation.

"The former queen of your country was defeated five years ago by our young adventurers. Then we have a truce, but it is hard to say that the ethnic groups of the people of the two countries are different and the national traffic is tight. Today's Dragon Ride started with" Duel Offer from King Julius, "but I think the Duke of Ashtle said, and I want to see it positively as a step towards building friendship. I would like to hear your Majesty's thoughts on that. The former queen will appear here after the match, I promise. But I want you to think of it not as a" recall, "but as a return from a visit to a neighbouring country."

If Elsein behaves in such a way that he forgets that he is a loser, Albain will be left with nothing. Having checked that part, His Majesty Klaus referred to Verlaine's treatment.

Julius sat down again. He looked around and confirmed the absence of Verlaine, then looked straight at His Majesty Klaus.

"There is no law in our country that binds those who have left the throne no matter how they act. However, Verlaine-Elsein is still the most powerful force in the Kingdom of Elsein. It would be detrimental to our country for her to be in Albain."

"That's so long as Elsein is at war. As long as the stability built by Queen Verlaine continues, it would not be appropriate to regard her as a 'combat force'."

"Let's not get rid of it with your interpretation. The former king is necessary for our country."

"... my country does not intend to use it politically for the purpose of Lord Verlaine's stay. I don't think that she brought any intent, but it was malicious. Let me make it clear that I am staying with the most trusted person in Japan."

I have spoken to His Majesty before today about Verlaine's presence in my guild.

Even though he knew I had Verlaine, His Majesty Klaus was just impressed and forgave that he had an idea.

I haven't told you much about Verlaine's behavior since coming here, but what would people think if they found out that she was the owner of a tavern and lived every day as a woman, feared as a demon king.

(Everyone's surprised, and your brother's not ready to fight.)

(... is that so? I think he has bones. Just because he's the demon king's brother doesn't mean he succeeded him.)

(I'm sure I'll tell your brother how you feel. If we win)

I hope so. As it stands, Julius has become so covetous - he must admire Verlaine so much.

If I had a sister that strong, I wouldn't be able to admire it. Perhaps the people of Elsein don't know how easy it was to show her in front of me.

But I want you to lie down in the future. The Demon King shows us as a person, and that's the private one that doesn't need to be made public.

"Either way, you got a match, so I'll get my promise fulfilled when I win. Whatever they say, I'm not going to cover it up here."

"There is no difference in that. I wanted to make it clear that we are not treating your ancestors unjustly or detaining them."

"Now, let's start the game. Both athletes will fly through the Northern Valley, which spans Albain and Elsein, in three defined positions. Athletes who raise their altitude above the upper edge of the valley's shoreline will lose significant points. Combat activities are permitted if they are carried out to secure a course of travel, not for killing purposes. If a falling dragon occurs, the athlete will be disqualified."

Cody explains the rules fluently. After entering the observatory, I talked to Elsein and packed it.

"If a monster appears in the valley, defeating it adds up to your rating. You don't have to knock it down. Those who arrive at the destination first will not always win, but we will discuss the battles along the way in both countries."

In other words, it is also important to show how powerful air warfare is where it appears in the crystal of vision. If the timing is bad, the monsters will hinder us from seeing us, sometimes wasting our time.

When I looked down, I used "hidden (hidden)" and secret pomegranate to erase the signs, but the winged monsters living in the valley looked very fierce. If we fly without warning, we will attack first.

After Cody explained the rules, Irina, who was guarding the Elsein side of the spectator seat, stepped forward on behalf of the Kinsai Knight.

"Now, both athletes must ride the dragon. When the start time comes, I'll whistle, so I'll pass the crystal at the start point and start the game."

Roger that.

Julius answers briefly, takes a seat and leaves. Sphere just nodded back in front of everyone and dared not speak.

"Albain has such a young dragon knight... Your Majesty, do you intend to create a Dragon Cavalry?

"No... I have nothing to say about Your Majesty's intention..."

"So who was preparing for the Dragon Ride? I wouldn't have done it without knowing."

Lowe is on the verge of losing his leg, but I am not going to interfere with anything about it. Even if you are brought to the game, it will be a needle banquet just to get a protrusion from other nobles, but I want you to be willing to accept it as a punishment for trying to manipulate us on the palm of your hand.

Before going out with Sphere, Miralka takes a seat and comes here. Rowe cared about Miralka, but he also seemed to have noticed Miralka.

"Something about the Prime Minister looking at me... do you know why?

(Speaking of which I know, I will talk about it slowly later. I want to focus on the game now)

"Yeah, yeah... that's right. I'm sorry, I tried to stop you. Sphere, you don't need any trouble. Do your best."

"Yes! Look, Miralka... oneechan!

If I were to say "Miralka Mother" here, the spirit of Lowe could collapse. I still seem obsessed with Miralka, but I regret to say that it has not arrived.

My precious companion can't be easily done to another man. If Rowe is still obsessed, I warn Rowe as nothing but Dick-Silver.

(Miralka's mom is so nice, she likes a lot of people.)

(... "Poor thing" is a disaster. Many people in the kingdom admit it... they're beautiful.)

Sphere didn't ask what I thought. Gradually, you've stopped poking at my weakness, and I think you've grown up to be a very kind child.

Sphere flies towards the valley on a banning ride. Irina and I were already in position to watch our game near the set of sight crystals.

The sun faces the center of the sky. I instructed Sphere to turn back temporarily to take the accelerating distance to get past the starting point at maximum speed - Julius is thinking the same thing, and we start accelerating a few seconds ago.

Two dragons are powerful and feathery. And Irina whistles - the tone of the whistle, and at the same time we pass in front of the crystal of sight embedded in the shoreline of the valley.

A torrential current flowing far below. From the water in front of me, huge fish like wings pop out and fly toward us - about B rank for the battle rating. They're not against us, but they're flying in line, so it's faster to knock them down than to go around.

"- Here we go, Mr. Banning!" Fire Breath (Laser Bracelet) "!

"--Dark Lightning Bomb (Chaotic Volt)!

Julius and I were the same - but one thing was different.

"What... what is it, that dragon...!

The black thunder of Julius' Black Dragon knocked down only two fish, and the Black Dragon took the trajectory of avoiding the others - but Banning's flaming breath ran in splits, leaving a trajectory of light, shooting down all the fish formations. Leave Julius without a stall or shard.

"Not yet... Mr. Banning is fast, strong and awesome!

"Kh... it's just begun and you're going to win!

Julius hasn't broken yet. And he's right, the game has just begun.

Feel for about three minutes until you pass in front of the next crystal of vision. Minimizing the loss of speed and how much full speed you can keep will determine the match.

--And not only the monster, but Julius is trying to attack us by blocking the front.

(Spear, if you set it up, I'll do "that". If you do as you practice, you will succeed!

Dad, look!

Windshift, which uses the power of the Wind Spirit to perform horizontal evasion manoeuvres without slowing down speed. This is a technique we have mainly practiced, but aerial manoeuvres do not end there alone.

While shooting down monsters, the signs from behind are not far apart. But neither I nor Sphere was willing to push through - I didn't mean to look Julius in the back from start to finish.
