It was a very long time since he disappeared that I had an old dream.

A man who can't hold on to his luggage.Are you really SSS ranked?

When I first met Dick and everyone after I finished my magic measurements.

We were honored to be miracle children, and we were chosen by the Demon King Crusaders.

I never thought I would entrust the fate of the kingdom to five children.At that time, I thought there was no wizard stronger than me in the world.

If you treat me like a child, I'll destroy you.

I was still small and had to look up at Dick.But I kept my chest up and tried to make myself look a little bigger.

Dick has been wearing black since then, like a raven.

There was no active shine in my eyes, and I looked sleepy.I feel frustrated that such a person has the same rank as me.

I was a child to be ashamed of.Dick was an adult by then.

If you have the same rank, you are neither older nor younger.I trust that power. "

Cody watched Dick say that.

Eileen seems to be having some fun, and after that, she's going to try Dick, but I haven't heard what happened to her wins or losses.

Yuma was still small and unsatisfactory, but the priestly calm had already begun, and she was watching us with a look that even made us feel merciful.

"What the hell can you do?I'm good at destruction magic.I can even flatten one mountain if I need to. "

I don't really understand why I became a SSS rank.I was asked if I would go out alone in a thousand years, but there are five of them. "

I thought that what Dick said was the most important - even if I was measured as an SSS rank, I just thought it was natural, and I didn't wonder why one person had gathered five in a thousand years.

He also has the strength to be recognized as a SSS rank.I thought so, but somehow I just stuck with Dick.

Isn't it a mistake that you are SSS ranked?

I don't know. If these five don't party and pull their legs together, it'll be a SSS rank. "

Well, above all, I wonder if we can party well.I'm... Cody Elstead.I can use swords and spiritual magic. "

My name is Euphire Manafrose.You can purify lost souls, preach to those who are hostile to us, and avoid battle. "

Neither Cody nor Yuma lied, but it was a way of saying that they could not express their power.

My name is Irene Spyria. As a matter of fact, there are horns here, and they are half human and half demonic... I came to King's Landing to train as a samurai, so I tried them hard, and something amazing happened.We're talking about getting a reward for defeating the Demon King, so let's all do our best!

Eileen was confident and worthy.

I was wondering if I'd be with a boy, but Dick and Cody would be fine.

"I will never interfere with my work.Don't worry about it. "

Work? Well, this is work... they said it was a mission.

Since then, Dick has been showing a scale to become an Alliance Master after a Demon King crusade.

Even though he is still a boy, he speaks of the demon king crusade as "work".For him, fighting the Demon King was not a result of a disastrous determination - I felt a little anxiety on the edge of my heart disappearing.

I'm not in danger because I say this unsightly person is okay.

I don't think I was an honest kid myself.I just heard Dick talking a little and intuitively knew he was a sincere person.

Well then, let's get going.You can walk... but the carriage looks good for a while.I'll sit in a hard spot for a long time, so I'd better be prepared. "

"Carriage... can I say such a lazy thing?

It would be easier to use what you can use.The carriage is passing, which means that the averaged road leads to the destination.Walking through the wilderness on an unspecified map is a hassle. "

I'm going straight ahead, but I'm going to blow everything up in the mountains.

Hahaha... that's painful, but we're all in one party.It's best to keep Miralka and Yuma healthy.That's what it is, Dick. "

Cody had a good understanding of Dick's ideas from the beginning.Dick often didn't tell me everything he thought, which sometimes seemed weird to me, but as we traveled together, I realized what he was thinking.

I'm sure they're all the same.

Dick was ruthless, but he thought deeper about his people and the people he met on his journey than any of us.

He taught us that he didn't always want to defeat the Demon King.It was the first time he had told me that if I took down the Demon King, the Six Mages and the people of the demon kingdom would avenge Albain.

Dick taught us a lot of things when we were kids.If I had been more honest, I might have thought of him like my brother.

--But I've always wanted to be next to Dick.

I'm just looking at his back all the time, and he keeps pulling away, desperately chasing after him, and still can't catch up.

After finishing the demon king crusade, I thought Dick would go far away.

After he told me that he would become an Alliance Master, and he really did, I was always anxious to feel safe once.

What Dick is looking at is different from mine.What he really wants to do remains untold to me.

That's because Dick thinks I'm a child.

I went to magic college because I wanted Dick to see it on a par with me.

When I saw Dick drinking with Eileen, I was jealous because they looked like adults and felt far away.

When Dick gave me a drink, I was so happy that I could cry.

I'm always swayed by Dick.He didn't mean to, but I was happy and happy and sad to see Dick.

I may be right in front of him all the time.

I still have a dream that Dick will go far away, and I feel like I'm going to stop thinking about him.

I follow fading memories and repeat them in my dreams many times.

In the morning light, I open my eyes.

Without getting up immediately, I turned to the side and saw the sky outside the window.

I still have to go to college today.Resting and worrying about Manarina, she comes to visit even though she is a princess.

At Magic University, there were many new entrants who wanted my Zemi, but I didn't want to take on new students in my current mood.

He is selfish.Even though some students admired me, I was not able to meet their expectations.

I wouldn't have thought so if I had been old.It is not a good time for me to be taught by ordinary students.You had better read a book by yourself.

Not me now.Making basic textbooks for Manarina, performing magic demonstrations outdoors - I feel a tension in those days.

If only Dick were there.

Manarina was very pleased that he had brought the plug.Of course, so am I.

Everything he made was magically delicious.If you go to the "Aquarium Pavilion", Verlaine will make it according to the recipe, and the taste will not change, but I still think it is different.

Verlaine always said nothing, knowing how I felt.

After Dick and Sphere went, we trusted him and waited for each other, but we knew each other.I can't wait all the time.

At that time, I heard a knock on the door.When he answers, the Servant Fran enters the room.

"Good morning, Miss Miralka... how about breakfast?

"... just a little.I'm sorry, I haven't had an appetite lately. "

"... Dick still hasn't contacted us.Is there something wrong with the Alliance's work? "

I haven't told Fran that Dick is fighting the god of the other sky.I got involved in a battle with Calvin, but I wanted Fran to spend the rest of his life unaware of the world.

Get out of bed and get dressed.My favorite blue dress has grown a little smaller and my chest has been enlarged to create a new one of the same type - someone who really wants to see this dress hasn't shown it yet.

"Miralka, I'll be downstairs, so let me know if you need anything."

"Yeah... thank you."

After Fran left the room, I went out on the balcony and saw a fairy bird in a bird cage.

"... you must be a terrible person.If you're leaving us, you'll be back soon... if you're reflecting on the past, you should be.I think it's okay because Sphere is with us. "

A daughter born between Dick and everyone.I couldn't help but think I missed Sphere.

But I'm also jealous of Sphere.I got into the magical instrument without a doubt and followed it to the other side of the world.

--If it came true, I wanted to go too.

I wanted to see everything Dick sees, too.I wanted to help him.

Because I love Dick.

There is no point in a world without him.Use Astorte's wand again to bring him home, but open the door to the Throne of God.

I didn't do that until now because Dick promised me he'd be back.

But I can't wait any longer.If I spend any more days crying without Dick, I'm sure I'll be weak.

"... I want to see you... I want to see you.Dick.... "

Once I said it, I couldn't stop it.

I can't stop crying.Holding it down on the sleeve of the dress will spill from behind.

The fairy bird is small and looks at me.As I reach out to the cage, Fairy Bird rubs his head against it.

"... thank you. That's right... this isn't like me."

I feel refreshed when I cry, but my feelings for Dick are still complicated and bothering me.

I didn't expect to keep you waiting so long.When you get home safely, I'll let you rest slowly, but afterwards...

"Nh...!

The wind is blowing into the balcony.A black shadow formed in the garden of the Mansion, slowly descending from the sky was a banning that had been seen for a long time.

I run down to the ground floor and go out to the garden.Banning is small, grunting and throbbing, looking down at me.

"... young lady.That dragon..... "

Laughs to reassure Fran that he is watching from the fearful Mansion.

"He said banning, the firedragon that Dick owns.They look different from regular firedragons... what's the matter?This morning. "

"Grrr"

The juvenile dragon has grown considerably in the past year, but the mother dragon has laid eggs and is about to give birth to a new life.

Banning sounds sweet to me even though he's a father with six more children.Is that because he remembers when he was riding me with Dick?

"... gruuuuu..."

Banning looks at the eastern sky.And look at me again - what's in the sky over there?

"Fran, I'll get you a little banging."

"Yes, ma'am.Be careful and go. "

Dick always pulled me up, but if I used magic, I could get one of them on the back of the banning.

The banning flaps its wings and rises.The early morning sky is clear everywhere, and you can see the plains spreading east.

--At first, I thought I might have seen something wrong in the morning sun.

You can see a big tree in the meadow.In the vicinity, you can see a large, human-shaped object.

I've seen that before.Yes - about a year ago.

"Dick....!

I called his name.Call as much as you can, and Banning runs through the sky.

I wanted to make sure as soon as possible.

The closer I got, the more nostalgic I felt the sign, and I couldn't think of anything.

◆ ◇ ◆

― ― I first felt that it was nostalgic air.

The magic equipment passenger seat opens and I go out.Is it the parents' eye that appears to have grown slightly more than when Sphere soon materialized - into the 'Throne of God'?

"Dad, did you succeed...?

'The Throne of God' - it was another world ruled by a different sky god.

The place that was said to be outside this world was also one of the parallel worlds.

Like this world, there is a continent, and there are many species that resemble the Devil tribe, and for them the god of the sky was the object of worship.Because it brought the soul necessary to create a new life from another world.

I don't know how the god of the other sky was created.The bones were broken to defeat the unsubstantiated opponent, but as I was retreating to another god, who was attacking me many times, I gradually felt no sign of it, and eventually disappeared.

Neither will the lost Outer World perish, and with the help of the acquaintances we gained during our journey to the Throne of God, we tried to make a space transition back to the original world.

However, the problem was that in the "God's seat" and the original world, there might be a large time shift when the space-time shift is carried out.

I don't know what year I'll be back in the Kingdom of Albain calendar.If I'd been off track for decades, I wouldn't have been worried.

"This feeling... is certain.Yeah, there shouldn't be any "off track."

"Yeah... I checked through a nearby spiritual pulse, but how long do you think it's been, Dad?

"I see... it's been six months over there, so is that about the same?

"The correct answer is about a year.I've made you wait so long for your mother and everyone. "

One year - how did everybody do during this year?

Were you spending the same days in King's Landing?Or have you gone somewhere else?

It may not be that time has passed.However, I think that nothing has changed for a long time.

"... hurry up, I have to see everyone.Dad, it's not when you're calm. "

"Ah, ahh... but I also have something called mind preparation..."

I want to meet everyone, and I have no doubt about it, but I have a bad habit all the time.

He pinched my cheek like that and smiled like Sphere couldn't be helped.

"Dad doesn't want to stand out because he's just a lighthouse."

"... Sphere, it's not enough to tease my father."

"Fufu... when I stayed with my father all the time, I realized how Lim's mother felt.You're so cute. "

"Ah... where do you remember that?Like me, it's the opposite of cuteness..... "

"--Dad, look...!

Sphere suddenly raised his voice and looked up at the western sky.

The area is higher than the flat ground, and the early morning air is slightly cooler.

The sky is blue and clear.You can see a small shadow in the sunshine of the rising sun.

--My buddy, Flash Dragon Banning.As a firedragon, someone rides on its rare torso.

I can't move. I can't move yet.

Sphere touches my back to encourage me to do that.

"... I'm going."

"Yeah, I'll be right there, too."

I'll walk out. The green grassland legs gradually accelerated - finally, they ran out.

The banning lowers altitude while winging.When thick and powerful legs reach the ground, a vibration is transmitted and waves like waves form in the grasslands.

"... Dick...!

On the back of the banning was a wizard with golden hair.

Miralka jumps out of there - I'll catch her.It's like a knight or something holding a princess.

"Eh... Dick... are you really Dick...?

"Oh, it's me.It seems like it's been about a year.... "

Miralka reaches out to my cheek.Then I shaken my throat and spilled a huge tear.

"... don't do that... look like nothing happened..."

"It was a tough job.I'm the one who decides to do what I do. "

I may tell everyone about the adventure at the Throne of God - but that's not the most impressive thing I've ever seen.

"There's something I know while I'm over there."

"... what? Don't bother telling me."

When I look at Miralka, who speaks like that and sharpens her mouth, I have an unprecedented feeling.

No - it must have been a long time ago.I realize that I'm simple and not worthy of being a man, but that's the part that needs to change.

"... that I and Sphere love to go on adventures together."

"Is that... what you're going to notice now?

The words are a little pointy, but Miralka laughs.I laugh too - this is how I really get to know what's natural, and I don't feel happy about it.

I met my Master, joined the Demon King Crusaders, and formed an Alliance.

Still, I gave up being alone somewhere.Now I know exactly how arrogant and selfish you are.

I really wanted to live among people more than anyone else.

I wanted to forgive myself for being a monster.

"... before I went, I promised.You think I made it?

When asked, Miralka remembered that too.

Miralka said she would take responsibility.I want to check the contents immediately.

"If I'd come back tomorrow, we'd all have been separated."

"... I see.If I go back to King's Landing now, I may be able to make it. "

"You don't have to.Because everyone is aware of it.I hope that you will stay in this world now. "

Miralka is right, from the direction of King's Landing, nostalgic faces are approaching us - even flying battleships.

"... even though I'm going to run away.I'm the first to come, so I can't help it. "

Miralka puts her hand around my neck.And she closed her eyes and folded her lips before touching each other.

Your heartbeat is warm.Make sure you're alive with their heartbeat.

I just want to stay a little longer now.

Because I don't think I was born in the wrong time when I walked like this.

◆ ◇ ◆

Banning is pointing to the sky to be carefree.Dick and Miralka, who were nearby, were watching from afar as they arrived.

"... hah. I knew it was Miralka... because she's only seen Dick since we met."

"If you say so, Miralka-san will be angry... and if it's since we met, then so will I."

Eileen strokes the embarrassing Yuma's head from above her hat.After looking at the two of them, Cody wiped his eyes with a cloth, and then returned to his groovy expression.

"Above all, I'm glad Dick's safe.I wonder how long he'll stay in King's Landing... "

"If it comes to peace, you might leave the country.If that happens, you'll have to follow me.

Verlaine said clearly, worrying about Cody.

"For me who left the kingdom of the devil, the only place where my master is is is the place to go home."

"But... Miralka and Dee... will you please excuse us?

"... it's up to Dick and Miralka... but I can't think of anything but Dick."

"Onee-sama... I want to respect onee-sama's thoughts, but Dick is either dead or over-achieved as a man..."

"Hmm... that's undeniable.Master is just a patient man who is isolated from the rest of the world, and I think he is an extremely healthy boy. "

Verlaine, who has lived with Dick for a long time, listens seriously.

"... Dee-kun, is it because of me that the woman is scared... that looks okay now?

In one word, everyone notices - Rimserit behaves as if he can't see Dick and Miralka, even if he sees them in harmony.

"Um... I want Dick to be a big person with a vessel so that Mr. Rimse can be calm and I don't miss him."

"Oh, God... forgive us sinners.We may have to fight over a man from now on.... "

"When Yuma takes it seriously, we're not going to argue... let's make harmony here.Our battle has just begun... can't we?

Verlaine couldn't keep up the momentum and tried to get his consent along the way.

Everyone in this room faces each other - Rimserit murmured to himself how cute he was when he met Dick, but they all pretended to look at him.

"Well... in the meantime, I'll keep an eye on you for a while, and then I'll storm you if it's too long.Is that all right?

"Yes, I have no objection.Still, I'm glad we're all here... if I'd come alone, I'd have left without saying anything. "

"Cody is Dick's best friend.I also think it's important to wish your friends happiness.... "

"... it's all Dick's fault.That's what I'm gonna do. "

"That's right, onee-sama.Dick can't do it. "

Verlaine approached the quiet Rimserit in the midst of everyone's enthusiasm.

"... that's good... that's good, Dee-kun..."

"... Master is not going far.I'm also in trouble if you think like that. "

"Vel-chan... am I okay?Even if I stay close to you..... "

"There's nothing wrong with that.Even if your husband wants to live quietly, let him give up that he was born on such a star... "

Dick drops Miralka off and the two of us walk here.Sphere comes running - Dick and Miralka, pull your hands.

Eileen picks up Yuma and runs.Cody, Shelley, and everybody run through the grasslands.

Black-haired teenagers are all messed up.Everyone smiles and laughs brightly.

His and their voices were always heard in the grasslands illuminated by the sun.

The Kingdom of Albain's greatest adventurer.Legendary children, once in a thousand years.

One of them was called "The Forgotten Dick."

But those who know him well carve the truth into their hearts without forgetting.

After defeating the Demon King, I became an Alliance Master because I didn't want to stand out.

That he was undoubtedly the hero who saved the world.
