"No, it's not, more like this... I don't know what to say, it's like a palace"

I was in the dungeon now.

And I'm asking Ver to modify it in the dungeon.

"I know what you're saying..."

This dungeon is made from my memory.

That means you can always change who I imagine you are.

"Like this?

"Mmm...... well that's fine. Then the next one's in the annex."

"You still gonna do this? Or shouldn't the master do it? Master can do it, too, huh?

"I'm not used to it yet, and you're better at being the Lord about dungeons, right?

"But hey? Daiyuan's a master, isn't he?

Ver was being treated by me and he looked fed up.

The school turned it all off.

I was blind in the first place, and that dirty school building was uncomfortable to watch.

Sometimes my house is convenient and I leave it behind.

Basically, it's Ver's residence as always.

And he wiped out all the residential areas that were around him, and built a palace near the house.

We are currently making some minor modifications regarding that palace.

Everything else is further ground, but I also thought it was unnatural that there was nothing there, so I left it in the meadow.

You say it's in the dungeon, but there's a vast meadow and a big sky here.

"So, Ver, did you ask for the rest?

"Huh? Are you leaving already?

"It's time for the Toas to wake up. Besides, Ver and I share memories, don't we? Then you know my taste, and you can go on without me, right?

"Well yes..."

"Phew... bye"

I sidetracked the obstinate Vel and left the dungeon behind.

I sent Toa to her room yesterday immediately after that.

He said he was fine, but it didn't look that way to me, because he looked worried about Suphilia and Nem.

I was worried about leaving him alone, and since then, he's been tight.

Even so, there wasn't anything particularly annoying about my hands.

Toa could have spoken normally, and like he said, I can tell you that that point was okay.

But still, I was worried.

Enter the dorm and proceed down the hallway.

"Hmm?"

Then there, I bowled with Toa coming out of the room.

"Are you awake already?

"Also, were you going somewhere?

Toa seemed a little tired when she said she was awake.

I was just cleaning the dungeon.

"Yes... did you sleep properly?

"I'm fine. I haven't had to sleep to get that tired lately."

Recently, there has been no need for something called sleep.

You don't have to sleep all the time. The sleeper doesn't attack you either.

I had been awake for about three days before, but still didn't get sleepy.

Just for once, I try to sleep.

Because I feel somewhat uncomfortable because of my habits or because I don't sleep.

Even so, to the point of lying down.

"Yes..."

"Is your body okay now? If anything, you should still be in your room today..."

"It's okay. It's perfectly normal, we can have a conversation, and... I feel kind of good today."

Am I thinking too much?

It's certainly not that I'm pale.

You look tired, but the same as always.

Plus, I feel it's wrong to push Toa, the Demon Nation, into the human mindset.

"Everybody?

He's still asleep.

"Right. So... you want to go to the cafeteria?

"I want to take a little shower...... it's time for everyone to wake up and then I'll go"

"... right"

I feel a little itchy.

What is it?

I feel like I don't know what to say.

"Nito, come in with me?

"Ha!"

Then Toa said something outrageous.

For a moment, I thought I heard it wrong, but it can't be wrong at this distance.

"Oh!... you! ……

Toa laughed funny when I disturbed her.

There was the usual look of Toa there.

I'm always saved by this smile.

"Ha! You can't go in there, can you?! Don't make fun of me!

"I'm not making fun of you. I just asked her to come in with me normally?

……

What is it?

I feel uncomfortable since yesterday.

Something's wrong with Toa.

It's supposed to be the usual Toa, but somehow, it doesn't seem like the usual Toa.

"... are you sure you're okay? Isn't it also a fever?

"Normal!

That's when Toa suddenly shouted out loud.

"Duh... what's going on?

"Nothing..."

"I knew I wasn't feeling well..."

"It's okay...... because I'm just in a bad mood when I wake up"

Would I have?

Toa always felt like she was in a good mood and bright when she woke up.

No, but does that depend on the day?

What about the Demons?

……

Well, women have a lot to do...

"Sorry......"

Then suddenly, Toa apologized.

"Huh?"

I don't know why Toa is apologizing.

I don't know how to answer that.

I feel emotions, but I don't know what Toa is thinking.

"It's a big deal... I don't care. Sometimes."

Because of that, and I really wanted to ask Toa a a few questions.

But right now, you shouldn't ask too much.

I think I might have another seizure.

"Is it okay if I'm alone?

"Yeah......"

"When you act, you take the two of us on foot, okay?

"Are you going somewhere again?

"Kind of. I'm coming to see the Sieges. I need to ask you something about the Empire."

"Yes..."

I didn't know how to react to Toa's unspoken response, but I only answered the requirements because of the fear of making room between them.

"Tell both of you when you wake up, and then I want you to keep the ring on at all times. If anything happens, I'll know."

"Hey? Nito......"

Then suddenly Toa called my name to leave my words behind.

"Don't you find me annoying?

"Annoying? Me? That's not true, is it? On the other hand, I appreciate it. With a guy like me, that he's still with me. What makes you think that?

"Because... we could be attacked by the Empire again, and now the Demons might come, and that's all... because of me..."

"It's not Toa's fault. It's all my fault. I made a mistake. Make it an empire. Make it a demon tribe, yeah. It's not Toa's fault."

When I said that, Toa slowly raised her face and looked me straight in the eye.

"Hmm?"

"Hugs......"

To?......

Suddenly, that's what Toa said.

I had an inner surprise and embarrassment, but there's no reason to put it on my face as a man.

Would I have worn a mask?

I held Toa softly, as I was told, without distracting from Toa's moist eyes.

"Come on, come back"

Toa is still strange today.

"Oh, oh... I'll do as much as I can"

Nevertheless, when will my mental level rise...

I slowly left Toa.

And again, I stared into Toa's eyes.

"Bye...... I'll be right back"

I swirled out behind my back, checking on Toa, and I told him so.

- He's gone somewhere again.

"Masamune......"

I want to be beside him.

But that's...

"Yes, that's fake love -"

In my head, the other me whispers.

He talks to me all the time.

"No! I have Masamune! ……

"You're a sloppy woman, aren't you? Even though I don't love you, I can't believe you hugged me... '

"It's not! It's not!

'So what's the difference? What do you know about him? Take your lips unilaterally, and have them hug you next, then what do you do next? How far are you going to want him? He's got something to do, too, right? I can't leave you alone. But you do know that, don't you? “He'll do anything I ask him to”?

"I don't think so..."

'You want one thing. When that's done, you're not gonna get involved with him anymore, are you? And return the favor. Try to help him. That's the only atonement you can make?

"Atonement? …"

'Cause it is? If I hadn't met you, he would have been happier, wouldn't he? He's got all that power, and you're holding it back'

"I... inhibit..."

I love Masamune... don't you?

I don't...

"There can't be..."

- Toa, for a while there, alone, stood up.

"Now... what did you say?

I was at the headquarters of the dragon's heart, making sure it was in Black Dragon.

"It's a lizard. You know that.

Wrinkles between the dragon's eyebrows.

- It's mainly about 'The Heart of the Dragon' and the Empire.

"The dragon-killer lizard tiger. A party that existed hundreds of years ago, the name of the leader of The Heart of the Dragon."

"The dragon's... the heart?

It was Zeke who asked me that.

I can tell from that look.

Alford and Eliza likewise seemed to want that answer.

I mean, the only person who knows this story is this black dragon.

"Father, what the hell do you mean?! I didn't hear" The Heart of the Dragon "existed hundreds of years ago! Isn't the founder of this organization your father?!

Then Black Dragon got smaller to human size, then it looked like he held his head, but after a while...

"A lizard... a name I miss"

"You must be seeing Kagetra. I want to talk to you later. I want to talk to you first."

Black Dragon cleared up plenty of time and then began to answer.

"What is the heart of a dragon... if strictly speaking, I am not the one who founded it. rather than this was the name of a certain adventurer party"

"Adventurer? ……

Sieg was confused.

"Um, five adventurers that used to destroy empires and protect this continent from empires. That was the Heart of the Dragon."

"I know that. I also know that you have an acquaintance with lizards. But I don't know the details."

I want to know more about what's next door. I'm gonna go ahead and leave Zeke.

"Kagetra is the only person I've ever recognized. Instead of living selfishly, I was constantly thinking about the peace of the world. That's why I listened to Cagetra's request and gave him a hand in the war."

"You think I gave you a hand?

"Uhm. Technically, it was my and then-' Heart of the Dragon 'that destroyed the Empire back then"

I see...

The Emperor is angry because of reason.

I mean, his aim is this black dragon and its' heart of a dragon '.

Do you want to hear what you've never heard before?

"What is a lizard tiger? What difference did he make? To my knowledge, I hear the lizard tiger was the strongest enough not to even send a black dragon. Was he the magician of the abyss, too?

"No, it's not"

Then Black Dragon cut off the talk once, and then changed it.

"Fire, water, thunder, wind, soil. Kagetra had these five attribute magic. That's why I was able to handle the blasting magic. Each organism is inhabited by its own unique mana, which belongs to the nature of the host. That means everyone is not good at it. But Kagetra treated these five attributes equally and excellently. That's why the explosion magic was born."

Hmm? With that said, I think I've heard that story before...

"Blasting magic is a powerful magic that creates a huge explosion at a remote point. So I was and still am afraid."

"That means..."

"That's right. Kagetra was... a brave man."

I'm sure Mr. Khalifa said that.

Kagetra said he was a brave man.

"But Kagetra is not just a brave man."

"I mean, is that it? Like he was a brave man and an abyss man?

"No, it's not. Would you have told me? He didn't have an abyss?

"Hmm?... yeah. You did. Then what?

When I hear the strongest, I really imagine the abyss.

But he was the first to say that Kagetra had nothing to do with the abyss.

"Ah, he was one of the brave men, especially the brilliant and magical wizard."

"Blessed with talent?

"That's right. Kagetra was therefore able to deal with the final depths of the brave. In addition to one article and Alford, I have met several brave men so far. But they had no blasting magic, but none came to it. There was only one person who got there. It's just lizards."

"So? What's that ultimate depths?

Really, unlike healers, you're blessed to be a brave man...

Not only can you use fire attributes, but you can also use four more attributes, plus burst magic.

That's all I thought, plus there's more on it?!

You're kidding me...

"It is the magic inherent to the brave, the magic that can only be handled by those who thrust their magic guide there"

This dragon is kidding me too.

I just want you to answer that.

- Heavenly magic.

"Heavenly Attributes?

It looks like there was a book with that title in the forbidden book that was definitely in Heirkwat...

"That's right. Kagetra was able to handle the magic of dominating heaven."

After all, no matter how far you go, a brave man is a blessed being...
