Me and the Demon King are like each other.

I'm sure that's why we figured it out.

It's like one of my own cracks, and I'm starting to get that intimacy.

I don't want to leave him.

When a lively routine with Isbell comes up in the back of his brain, it disappears.

I'm here to help Isbell get that routine back.

"-L, Adele!

Someone calls me, and I wake up.

If I turned my gaze, I saw Leona staring at me with a worried look on her face.

"Hmm... Leona"

"It's been a long time, but are you okay?

"Oh, I'm fine"

Wake up your body and pour the water that was placed near your bed into your body.

He seemed pretty sleepy and he remembered a strong thirst.

"... are you sure you're okay? You seem a lot ill when you wake up."

"He said it was okay."

I looked away from Leona as she glanced at me.

Honestly, it's hard to say it's okay.

Two days after the battle in the harbor, we are currently moving to Castle Town to take accommodation.

In the last two days, when I was getting better and gathering information, I figured out a few things about my body.

First of all, sleeping doesn't restore magic to satisfaction.

Apparently, the overall amount of magic is decreasing.

At the same time, gradually but various sensations are beginning to dull.

Your eyes and ears aren't functioning as sharply as they did before.

It will not have degenerated from the realm of the Superman yet, but it will soon become unsuitable for the struggle.

Yes, in a nutshell, my body is moving back to normal.

I don't know if this is a self-defense instinct to protect my life, or if Xdark or the Holy Sword Sabres are interfering in anything again.

No matter how it goes, it means I don't have much time left to fight.

(If you can be impotent, maybe one more time...)

I know the limits to some extent.

If I don't get over it, I should be able to get home safely myself.

I wish I didn't have to cross...

"What about everyone else?

"Reconnaissance of Demon King Castle, as always. I still can't get in there."

"Right..."

We tried to get into Demon King's Castle right after that, but it turned out to be impossible.

Because the key Demon King Castle has been shut down.

We do not know what is going on inside, but it is the current situation in which the means for entering and leaving Demon King's Castle are completely denied.

Soldiers are constantly patrolling around, and the gates are tightly closed.

It is strictly forbidden for us, the elite few, to make a scene.

At a time when we had to refrain from breaking through, our feet were completely stopped.

"Are we going to break through the front already? I'm worried about her whereabouts."

"Isbell... right. I would be on board first, and I'm concerned that Phantom hasn't contacted me."

I took the word for it a long time, but in the end I also know very well that just waiting for there to be a move like this just wastes time.

If they don't move, we have to move from here.

Having such a conversation suddenly opens the door to the room.

"Oh, are you awake?"

"Gidalla... plus Silver and Irela"

What came into the room was the appearance of the fellows who were acting together.

The last time I came in, when Irela closes the door, Gidalla talks out looking at my face.

"... the gates of Demon King's Castle are open."

"What ⁉"

"I hear there will be more speeches than this in the castle town square. I don't know what's actually going to happen, but it could be a chance to make contact."

"We have to go, it's"

I stand up and weave my skin jacket.

I laid down my still sleeping Xdark on my hips, ready to go.

"Well don't rush it. Not all the circumstances have swallowed it yet. Let's start by trying to get into a speech venue. Once opened, the gate cannot be closed completely anymore. I'm going to miss today, but I'm going to have a little bit of a broom."

"... so is that"

It is true that there is a rush in me.

Try to calm it down somehow, and I'll pull my shoulder out.

"Have you decided to talk? Then let's go."

Silver, who has remained silent until now, speaks as he reweaves the hood of his robe.

"This is not the way we hide ourselves."

Likewise, Leona, wearing a hood, walks straight out to the entrance and exit.

In the form that followed, Gidalla and Irela also went outside.

"Wait, Isbell..."

I wore my robe deeply myself, after the inn I was staying in.
