Ee, Teni Shippai? Seikou?

The next morning, in addition to Alana, Minori and Amy, who were members of the final match, Sheehan and Samantha appeared on the deck.

Whether the all-night attack was successful or not, the number of monsters around the Aegis vessel has now been reduced considerably.

"Thank you for waiting."

Yoichi, who came out of the cabin, meets them.

"Fufu, it looks like I had fun last night with Givens."

Alana looked bad at the words first, but Minori and Amy reacted similarly, and she opened her eyes.

"... Mr. Yoichi?"

"Ahahah, actually, after that, with everyone...?"

Yang Yi, who had a sharp gaze, excused himself with his cheeks pointing in trouble.

"It's okay, Alana was alone."

That's right! Atai and the others were together.

"Mmm... that's right, too."

In protest with Minori and Amy, Alana nodded reluctantly, but Samantha and Sheehan were not convinced.

"What a luxurious thing to say, why don't you just leave it with me?"

"That's right!It's too much for everyone! "

When the two of them said that, they all had sorry expressions.

"Ah, well, you two, slow down after everything's over, huh?"

When Yoichi told her to follow her, Samantha and Sheehan shrugged their shoulders together.

"I'm not here, Charlotte."

"Rosanna's working behind the scenes, and I need to take care of her."

"Of course I know."

When the story ends, Yoichi disappears.

And a few seconds later, he showed up with a Vermilion bird.

"Alana and the others will be on this one."

It was always bigger than Suzaku, who was riding Yoichi.

"He can't fly as fast as Suzak, but he's good at steady flight."

Amy walked up to the big Vermilion bird and explained as she stroked her neck.

From now on, the four Alanas will ride on his back to the Demon King Castle.

"What's her name?"

Not yet.

Amy answers Minori's question.

Amy was free to tame monsters, but she wasn't particularly particular about naming them.

Well, how about South?

Isn't that nice?

There was no objection in particular, so his name was decided on South.

Say hello, South.

Gyuuuu!

When Alana called out her name and tapped her neck lightly, South snapped nicely.

The noise was slightly lower than that of Suzak.

Well then, get in.

Three people rode on the back of the South.At the beginning, Amy was able to convey her will to South, followed by Minori and Alana.

Due to Vermilion Bird's unique abilities, they could not fall without securing the body with saddles, harnesses, etc., so all three enjoyed the moff-moving feathers of South.

Now let's cum ~

When Amy called out, South clams and wings flared and jumped up into the sky.

Be careful.

I'll leave my defense to you.

"I'll cover you, so fly with confidence."

Yoichi, Shehan, and Samantha escorted Amy on board, and the South flew away for Demon King Castle.

○ ● ○ ●

"Uhyo! Hahhhhhh"

Though inferior to Suzak in terms of speed, South is also Vermilion Bird.

Looks like it's flying gently, much faster than a fighter.

Moreover, the view flowing under the nose is incredible because it is flying at low altitude.

There are few monsters that can keep up with that speed, but it's not zero.

However, most of the monsters attempting to approach the South were destroyed by backup fire from the Aegis, and the objects approaching them were intercepted with the magic of Minori.

It's about time ~

It took just a few days to cross the forest sky on foot.

However, we are on track because the Aegis vessel behind the course has thoroughly eliminated the surrounding empty monsters.

The air defenses around Demon King Castle are still more than 10 million. If we don't keep attacking, after half a day, the sky around here will be filled with monsters, and South will not be able to fly satisfactorily.

"Did you see that?"

Alana, who stood up on her back, looked forward.

After the forest was cut and the wilderness continued for a while, there was a giant crater.

"That big rock drop was a terrible attack....."

"Sasugaaniki, Paneèsu!"

Minori shouted praise as she saw a crater spreading out of sight as she approached.

"Is that the center of... Demon King Castle?"

In the middle of the crater was a sturdy building.

Minori, who saw it, leaned his neck because it was too modest to call it Demon King Castle.

A small gate and a house.

Considering the dwellings in the whole town, it seemed reasonable, but when it was placed in the vast wilderness, it looked blurry.

Moreover, the gate seemed to have only a gate frame a little away from the house, and nothing like a wall was even found.

"I don't know what it is, but I'm going to stick it in!"

The nuisance is creepy.

But that's why we can't just attack.

"Everybody, stay alert to whatever happens."

The other two nodded at Alana's warning.

Okay, Amy, let's go.

Roger!

The South lowers its altitude and closes its distance toward the house.

The gate moved in a different direction and the house approached.And when it's time to slow down -

Ha!?

--The house disappeared from the sight of the three.

Alana shouted surprise unexpectedly, but each of the other three were surprised and had a confused expression.

"Guys, let's go!"

In the meantime, Minori raised her voice.Looking back to be guided by her words, there was a house that went away.

"What's going on?"

"I don't know..."

"For now, South, U-turn!"

With Minori and Arana at baffle, Amy gives orders to South.

Gyurrgh!

Amy's life-saving South circled around and grabbed the house again in front of him.

"South, fly lower!"

Lower your altitude and fly faster if you rinse the ground.

"Hold on, let's stick it in!"

And without slowing down, he storms toward the house.

"... again!"

But when it reached a distance of about 100 meters from the house, the building in front of it disappeared again.

Next time, next time?

There was a building slightly diagonally behind us, which went further away to suit the South flight.

"It's like I slipped through..."

"What's going on? Is space distorted?"

Minori was stunned by the unusual situation, and Alana frowned.

(Guys, listen up!)

At that time, the voice of Yang Yi echoed in the heads of the three.

(Apparently the only way to enter Demon King Castle is to walk through the front gate.)

Yoichi seemed to have found out in [Appraisal Ω] why the four could not reach the castle of the Demon King.

"Chi, don't make me sick, I don't know."

After a dull murmur, Amy ordered South to land in front of the gate.

Well then, South, I'm going home carefully.

After everyone gets off, I'll drop off the South Flying Away to my hometown, Mt. Zhu Chi.

And the three of them turned to the gate.

"This guy...."

Looking at the gate, Amy was stunned.

It was too simple for the gate of the Demon King Castle, and at best it was about the size of two large trucks going differently.

However, if there is anything that still stands out, it would be an object of the plane sitting on the gate.

"Damn, what are you doing here?"

It was the same as it was in the Azito of Ola Taggigo.

Looking beyond the gate, we can see that the house ahead is the same as the one over there.

"Anyway, we have to get inside."

Ugh

Alana takes the lead and walks through the gate.

I didn't feel anything in particular, but the three were able to get into the gate safely.

Move toward a house that doesn't even know if it should be called Demon King Castle.

Then there was a figure standing in front of him.

"At last."

An alien phantom with Jaguar's head on the body of a forged man said so with a voice that seemed to have given up, but was waiting somewhere.
