The next morning.

Visit the room in the cathedral to see Michelina, who would have recovered overnight.

"Here you go. It's nutritious."

"Thank you."

An assortment of fruit is passed from Sylvia's hand.

Even though Michelina received it, she remained asleep for months. It is difficult to move your body as soon as you wake up as you used to.

I still sit up and talk in bed while I'm sleeping.

I just can't have a conversation with a woman in that condition, and I'll have her move to the corner of the room just like yesterday.

"Thank you very much for this."

"No, I just happened to have a business trip."

"Still, thanks to you, I was able to save you for now."

In the meantime....

"I knew he was alive."

Melissa received a book that Michelina left by her bed because she couldn't get near it.

The contents of the book can be shared in [Labyrinth tuning].

The cover depicts a picture that is thought to be a monster, although it is simplified, and it can be seen that it is a picture book for children.

"It's a fairy tale for children in church."

When I scrolled the page to try it out, the demon came to the child who was staying up late at night and forced him to sleep. With the power of the devil, you can sleep well. However, if you rely on it many times, you will fall asleep too much, and eventually you will not be able to wake up.

If you sleep properly at night, the devil will never come.

A picture book designed to teach you how to live a regular life.

"This?

I never wake up asleep.

It seems to have something to do with "sleeping sickness" this time, but I don't understand the connection to the picture book.

"Actually, the demon was real."

Fairy tales are often based on the truth.

It is intended for children by coloring legs from there and performing performances.

Things that made our activities into picture books were also very different from the actual events, so I somehow understood them.

"--The Dream Demon, a demon that existed about 500 years ago and was sealed by the then 'Virgin'. You know how demons are born."

Demons are created by having negative emotions such as hatred, anger, and sadness that are emitted by humans. It is instinct to kill and fall into the way of birth, making it an untouchable opponent.

However, some people become demons from humans by absorbing the energy that demons rarely produce. Most of the time, demons swallow it, but if they can resist instinct, they become powerful monsters.

"Dream demons are demonized by wizards who are good at interfering with the mind. The wizard used his magic to make people sleep one after the other."

"Did you have any complaints?

"... I don't know."

Even the records transmitted only to the "Virgin" made him sleep indiscriminately.

"Afterwards, the wizard, who had gathered the greatest adventurers of the time and demolished them, was crushed."

But by that time it was already too late.

Even though the body disappeared, the Dream Demon was able to recreate his body in his own world that he had created in his dreams.

Besides, I stopped coming out of my dreams this time.

Even if you are an adventurer with enough strength to defeat S-rank monsters, you cannot defeat them if they are dragged into the world of dreams.

"So, what's the matter?

"The Virgin at the time worked with the Witch to seal it."

"Eh...."

Noel, the modern 'witch', loses his word.

"I've never heard that before."

"Well, I can't help but pass it on to the Kingdom of Memphis."

A monster hiding in a dream.

The purifying power of the Virgin shreds the power of the devil, and is sealed by the Witch to the Dependent Age.

"It is said that even with the power of the 'Virgin', the power of the Dream Demon could not be cut off. So I thought about scraping it while it was sealed and I couldn't do anything."

A crusade that took an incredibly long time.

But I couldn't defeat him if I didn't.

"Does Michelina think the Dream Demon is the target this time?

"Yes, I can assure you, I am the Virgin of our time."

Modern "witches" were confused by stories they had never heard before.

"The seal of the Dream Devil is in the Principality of Issugaria. We make sure no one finds the seal, and we can't destroy it easily."

There were several of these monsters in the Principality of Issugalia, and it was all the Virgin who was in charge of the seal.

There will always be no more powerful monsters.

I had forgotten the existence of the seal because I no longer relied on nature and "witches".

"Oh, I remember."

The word "remembered" came out of Noel's mouth.

However, it was not Noel who uttered the word.

"It was hundreds of years ago."

Tishua rented Noel's body from the Mansion.

"At that time, I was still faithful to the role of 'quelling disaster', so I was asked to work on sealing."

"Well, if I seal it again this time..."

"You probably don't have the seal skills."

Noel is having a conversation with herself.

With the loss of the sealed job, Sealed Skills were lost from the "Witch", and Tishua was not concerned, so Noel did not train to acquire the skills.

The power of The Witch has become stronger in terms of power.

"The demon was brought back to life a few days after it was defeated."

In other words, even if it is defeated at the stage of yesterday, it may be resurrected tomorrow, the day after tomorrow, or a few days later.

"If you knew, advise me sooner."

"I've decided not to be involved in human issues anymore. Now I'm going to take care of my children and have fun with shopping and eating."

"Already....."

Noel was stunned by Tishua's words spilled from his mouth.

But there might have been other ways to seal it.

"You can't call it immortality. [World] is like a trump card to us. It's not going to work again."

"It's my fault I couldn't remember that point. If your parents are gone, your children will be sad."

The children in the Mansion are only gods who think things out of their own minds.

"First of all, I want to see what the seal looks like right now."

A map of the Principality of Issugaria is spread out over the bed.

Miss Michelina indicated as a place of seal a hill near Winkia. There is a sealed cavity inside, and only the Virgin and Witch can enter and exit the entrance.

Please take me there.

"You don't have to."

I know where it is. Signal Sylvia with your gaze and she disappears.

"Eh...."

"We'll look into the seal. We can't just take the sick away."

"But the entrance....."

Well, you'll be all right.

When I wait in my room, I will hear from Sylvia in a few minutes.

"Did you get in?

"Yes, there was a hard door at the entrance, and the cavity perimeter was repaired automatically, so it couldn't be easily reached by destroying the earth wall."

Frontal breakthroughs are difficult even in Sylvia.

It seems that there was an automatic repair function that assumed intrusion from a place other than the entrance, but it is a story of breaking and entering.

"There was nothing wrong with sliding through the wall."

"So, what's the seal?

It's broken. And it's shattered. "
