"Once upon a time, there were those in this country who continued to be scorned, neglected and abused as the weakest."

It's a childhood memory.

A relaxing afternoon in late spring. I was called to the terrace that visited the garden and listened to the words of Master Kuzha.

"Are we Farrat?

"No. They didn't even have the fur to protect themselves from the cold, like you. Because of their weakness, they continue to take away even their own land to live on."

Her hair glows golden in the gentle sun. From there I glance, fascinated by gentle eyes.

My palms stroking my dark blue wool are soft.

When I meditated my eyes on joy and tickle, Kusuha spilled a grin in a voice like rolling a bell.

"But there were those who did not allow themselves to live spoiled by such a situation, who fought against reality and challenged their limitations as a race. She was a rebel. I trained myself, grabbed the slightest possibility, and pursued the path without a path that everyone had given up, with conviction."

"What happened to you?

"After a long and hard journey, I reached the top of my own quest. She saved others, guided her compatriots, and did what she had to do."

"Amazing. I respect you, too."

Master Kusukha nodded in favor of my reaction.

Master Kusuha picked me up and raised me unaccompanied. I'm not the only one. Master Kusuha picks up a large number of other children and pours the same warm glance on all of them.

With few men lined up in this kingdom, the Grand Duke of Heavenly Demons, Master Kusukha was merciful everywhere.

"Me too. Because she's one of my most respected friends. I am, Astas. I think you can be like her to Farrat and the others."

"Am I?

"Yes. You are a very honest and kind child. You have the power to make diligence a virtue and guide your own thoughts and answers. If you learn more here and experience more, you will."

"... Yikes! I'll do my best!

"I hope so"

My chest got hot after Master Kusuha said it.

I didn't know everything I was saying, but still, I knew that Master Kusuha was watching me and watching me from now on.

Something hot came up from there in my stomach, a thought that filled my chest.

Early afternoon terrace.

The promise in that place, which I still remember clearly, was my goal in life, and it became all of it.

I even learned. [M]

What can we do to ourselves who are powerless? How can we survive even if we are weak bodies?

The laws of this world, the backbone of witchcraft, the characteristics, history and geography of other races. Greedy absorbed all that could be learned and done, drilled heavily, and deepened his exploration.

I later learned who you are, one of Master Kusuha's most respected friends.

Master Shiki Hisaka, Grand Duke of Phantom Demons.

I just didn't think I could do the same thing as Shiki, but learning about Shiki gave me no more inspiration and courage.

And time passed, and Sunra was revealed.

Master Kusuha was alert to Sunra from the beginning.

The worries have been moderate, Sunra has not even tried to hide their abusive nature, and has put forces against the Suseragi territory of Master Kusukha and against the Hisaka territory of Master Shiki.

We fought hard.

Our Lord is Kusukha, even though he is the Demon King.

The army of the Demon King was a madness terrible thing, but we fought to the best of our ability. Of the Demon King's fierce blade, to avoid letting him enter Suseragi territory.

Master Kusuha was still strong.

Master Kusukha can turn his body into seven forces.

If you turn to the power of the wind, it becomes a raging storm, swallowing and cleaving the entire enemy formation, and turning to the power of thunder, it becomes a lightning bolt that runs a thousand miles, penetrating and burning the enemy.

The Grand Duke of Heaven showed his mighty power before the army of the Demon King.

And there was the answer I asked for.

That was the strength I didn't ask for.

There was no Sunra in that army.

The tyrannical Demon King himself never showed himself in the armies attacking Suseragi or Hisaka territory until the end.

And the battle is over.

Many of my companions who fought for me were also hurt, and most of them died leaving me behind, such as my compatriot Farrat. The battle is over.

In front of the remains of my compatriots, I ate my teeth and tied them up, and I wept for a long time and kept my chest stretched.

We fought, too. We, Farrat, who have been scorned for being the weakest, have risked our lives to defend this Suseragi territory and to fight the Demon King's army.

Yes, I told myself, and I kept putting my chest up in front of the remains of my compatriots. I just had to keep tensioning.

In order not to be crushed by the grief of losing many of my compatriots, I had no choice but to keep my chest up in support of pride.

But that little pride, piled on the remains of his brethren, was tragically stepped on by the same brethren who were outside their territories.

No, I learned after the battle that you'd already been trampled.

Angry.

It was more intense than ever.

I was unable to indulge in words of contempt.

What were Farrat's compatriots outside the territory doing to protect Suseragi territory, even though they were weak, on the other side where we were fighting for our lives? What have you been doing?

When I found out about it, I cried.

The headache and nausea didn't heal much, and she kept vomiting crying.

Retaliation against Farrat outside the territory had already begun by then.

Until now, Farrat's compatriots, who continue to be scorned, neglected and belittled, were even more hated and resented.

In the midst of the confusion in which Sunra disappeared, my compatriots continued to suffer one retaliation after another and to reduce their numbers.

I thought I deserved it.

You just have to keep missing one.

You can carry your own sins and die constantly.

I had no intention of helping.

I was going to abandon you.

I couldn't wait to be one of them.

But I couldn't abandon him. [M]

For I could not forget the sight of the remains of my brethren, who had fought and died for the sake of the offering, and whose remains lay cumulatively.

Because I had an oath to Master Kusukha on my childhood.

I asked Master Kusukha to allow me to protect the Farrats outside my territory.

The sins committed will not go away. But I can make amends for living. You have to make amends.

In Suseragi territory and Hisaka territory, thanks to our compatriots who died fighting for their offerings, their feelings for Farrat are no worse than outside their territory. I bowed my head to the remains of my countrymen. [M]

Use the small trust you have won with your life to help your compatriots who are clearly outside your guilty territory.

To beg for that forgiveness.

I ran away.

The situation of my fellow countrymen outside my territory was worse than I thought.

I was reminded that's all I did.

I myself have been in danger many times.

While I was in Suseragi territory, I could be Astas, but when I went out of territory, I was only one of the furrats who behaved vilely, so naturally.

Even if I knew, it was hard for me to scrape something in me every time I was scolded.

Something that gets shredded even more every time we fail to make it to this step and see the remains of our fellow citizens who have been struck down.

The Land of Demons seemed small and too vast for me.

Where I breathed to save my fellow citizens outside my territory, my arms continued to make me realize that they were smaller and more unreliable than I thought.

He cursed me, slapped me out, and in time he put my countrymen's exposed wreckage in front of me, and he hit me with a grudge, and something in me kept shredding.

Still, he ate and tied his teeth and kept stepping on them.

I ran around the land of demons and searched for my compatriots.

It was a decade in no time.

How many of my compatriots' remains would I have counted if I hadn't made it? Few of them were in such a state as to represent the weight of the resentment received.

But some of my compatriots were helped.

They only had to reach Suseragi territory to help.

Although some people were unable to reach it, a small number of their compatriots were able to think about the future and think about how to make amends in Suseragi territory.

And a new demon king stood.

Everyone spoke joy that the rough country would also subside, bringing order and peace.

While everyone was happy to raise their hands that the next Demon King was not Sunra, but a merciful and wise Demon King, a light of hope in the Land of Demons, … I had my hands on the ground.

A proclamation by which a new Demon King will stand and be issued one after the other.

Announcements to revoke the laws of Sunra's time and allow order to be re-established. Many of them were meant to restore disturbed order and rough circulation, and to protect exhausted races and those who lost their place of life.

Farrat was not included in it.

In a new era, when he became a new demon king, he thought that the sins committed by our compatriots would never be forgiven, and that reality was slapped in front of him.

It got dark in front of me.

I could hardly stand on my ankles, which were supporting my body.

It's like declaring to the country through a proclamation that even the new demon king, who is considered benevolent, will never forgive us.

Now our little favor is Suseragi territory.

Thanks to our fellow countrymen who fought and scattered their lives together, we Farrat have little hope of living in Suseragi territory.

If it's gone, what happens?

Master Kuszha is the Grand Duke of Tendemon.

Either way, we have to work with the new Demon King as a pillar of the Four Demons Grand Duke to assist in the rule of the Demon kingdom.

But the new Demon King will not forgive us.

Our kind Kusuha will never abandon us. I'm not that kind of person.

But will the new Demon King forgive us for holding us in his territory?

... the answer is out.

The new Demon King tried to retaliate against us. He continued to suffer reprisals and died until the last one was gone. Naturally.

That's what I thought when I found out what my countrymen did.

As it is, Master Kusukha, as the Grand Duke of Heaven, will no longer be able to help the New Demon King.

The new demon king has a good reputation.

He also said he already has the help of the Grand Duke of Satan, the head of the Four Demons. It may be only a matter of time before we get the help of the remaining Grand Duke of the Four Demons.

Only Master Kusukha can't get in as far as that.

Only Master Kusuha will be left behind because of us.

Only Suseragi territory becomes isolated.

Because of us, Farrat.

No! No!

You can never do that!

I don't know if I can help my people anymore. [M]

The new demon king did not allow Farrat.

Whatever I do, that's the result.

There's nothing more I can do.

The New Demon King did not accept us.

Then we can't accept the new Demon King either.

If there is no place for us in the reign of the New Demon King, we cannot recognize it.

Then we have to break it.

If you can't accept the new demon king and deny his reign, you'll have to break it.

I lost.

I don't even know what to do anymore.

What should I have done?

I wonder what was right.

We have no choice but to be killed like this.

Then at least one last time, you'll never forget us.

I will leave profound claw marks on the Demon King, on the land of demons, on everything in this land that will never disappear.

"So, the march of the dead? I can't even tell you what's going on."

Bel Adone finally summed up my selfish monologue, still listening.

Yeah, I'm scared myself.

I don't know what you're talking about, but I think you're talking a lot more selfish. It sucks.

"Still, I know what we can do now. We have to do this."

"Will the rest of you let them go? I don't know, they resent me more and I can't take it back anymore."

"What's the matter, there's no place ahead of us if we keep this up. There's nothing to take back."

"I don't have to just give it up from myself on my own - awesome, you scapontan! Master Kusuha and His Majesty, oh dear, still abandon the ladies! Go ahead on your own, give it up from yourself on your own! No, he's just a stubborn kid, but hey!

Bel Adone stares straight at me.

Really, straight up.

Bel Adne, the youngest daughter of the admirer Shiki.

You've been straight for a long time. [M]

It was straightforward for everyone, for goals, for ordeals.

Though I am often mistaken because I am straight with my desires. You were my admirer again.

"I think so, too."

"Takake! Then don't do this fast."

"But I can't do it anymore. I have no idea what to do. I couldn't do it. I didn't have the hassle to do it."

"I can't let my drunken stupidity do me any good! If you think you can convince someone with selfish assumptions, it's a big mistake! Wake up!

"I knew you wouldn't understand. I didn't want to imitate it rough, but... I don't know what else to do."

"Stop! Fluffy with a finger! I can't forgive you!

Construct magic as you approach Bel Adone.

I didn't want to imitate this if I could, but if I hadn't, you wouldn't listen to me.

No, I don't think you can do it by force.

Everyone doesn't seem to think so, but I know she's the one with the guts to sit on. Anyway, I endured Shiki's training and inherited the name of Princess Skeleton.

If I do it properly, I won't have teeth. [M]

Not even at this time.

"... if you resist me with puppet art, it's quick and helpful to talk"

"Ku...... I don't give a shit."

"If you use the technique here, the seal will react to your magic, won't it? I know it's going to be unstable, but that's not exactly why I can solve it right away. I want you to resist."

I assembled the magic and turned the tip from my wrist into a mass of flames.

The principle is the same as that of Master Kusuha. The form of power I admired and pursued. What was ahead of the answer I saw one day.

Naturally, though it is no match for size or power at all.

Point the fingertips of the flame at Bel Adone.

No matter how powerful you manipulate it, its birth is a more fragile clan of phantoms than any other race. By the way, if I grabbed it with this hand, my skin would burn.

And yet, Bel Adone keeps staring at me and never tries to work out his magic.

I think it's a big deal. But I'm sorry, too.

I wouldn't have wanted to hurt you if I could.

Never took my will to grab Bel Adne's throat...... bounced.

At some point a barrier of light appeared between me and Bel Adone, playing my hand.

"Stay away from her!

A woman dancing herself out of the entrance shouts out loud.

This... is a rare sacred magic in the Land of Demons.

This magic barrier of strength should be accurately assembled at this distance.

Has the chase from Demon King's Castle followed you? Much faster. Looks like I couldn't afford more than I thought.

"Don't interrupt. Ahhh!!

Turn your whole body into flames and mock the woman.

She stacked more magic barriers and stunningly prevented my attack, which became a flaming mass.

That's the kind of magic barrier that's strong.

"It doesn't seem like it's just Farrat. I wonder if that's the land of demons. But this much! Even I'm not doing the Virgin to Dada!

Pushed into a magical barrier with temper.

Can you change phase while maintaining it from where you built it!? I've never seen such a magical barrier used.

... The Virgin?

Now, this woman. You said the Virgin!?

I tear my body apart once and tear down the magic barrier.

I didn't know you could push away my body, which became a mass of flames, but... it does.

Raising the heat of my body even higher, I confronted a woman named the Virgin.
