"This is the Seven Stars... Are the Seven Stars here also human..."

Deepest part of the ruins. On the road, as he proceeded to destroy the debris, a large block of ice was seated in that place where the claw marks of their battle were left.

Sleeping in the blinding light is the appearance of an elderly woman with small triangular ears.

The 'Demonic Pole Listilia' seen in Sarsgard and the 'Heinern the Sword God' fought by the Lues were also human shapes, but the woman now sealed in front of them......

"Sounds kind of odd, though it's sealed up"

"... Yes. I don't feel like this guy's a bad guy, either."

"... if it's this size, you can carry it out. Let Lue see it too. She says... because she's also an expert in these things"

Yes, because we spent 1,000 years together on the side of the sealed Seven Stars.

"Uh... are you okay? I moved it from the sealed area."

"At least that guy was moving it during the fight, right? Well, why don't we at least take it outside so Lue and the others can check it out as soon as they get here?

"I see... shall I carry it then? I'll help you, too."

"Then it would be helpful if you could get ahead and get out of the way of debris and stuff."

While carrying out the huge ice cubes, I wondered what it would be like to be a little helpful in this still hot season.

Then I carry the ice out safely and breathe a sigh of relief when I make sure the man I sealed earlier doesn't change either.

The Lues don't seem to be catching up yet, but that would also be a matter of time.

What has happened so far... I tried to tell you more about it, but that will be after everyone is in place, and it is not very important to give a mild update first.

"Oh well... it took a whole week from the entrance to get here..."

"Mm-hmm. Trees are so dense that it's impossible for people to step in, the number of detours they've been allowed to make is better than ten. Rather than a natural labyrinth... some will was working, I'm sure."

"And the demons were powerful. I don't think the demons we originally fought on the semi-final continent are comparable because they were weak, but the demons in the forest here were unusual. Clearly not like other dungeons......"

"Right. Most of them were undead or perverted demons. If it is possible that the man that Lord Caivon defeated was also an undead... was he his family or something?"

I was able to arrive at a tremendous speed by gliding through the sky in a straight line, but I did see it at a straight distance, and there would be about 70 kilometers from here to the entrance.

When it comes to bypassing that over and over again with poor scaffolding, poor prospects...... tough.

"So, what are you going to do after this? It's going to take a lot of preparation to hear about Soytz."

"Yes, right? I don't know who's connected to this man... so why don't you talk to the king of the country who summoned me. At least, the king has a weak connection to other nobles and is closest to us liberators."

"Um, yeah. More than the man wanted something from the liberator... the king who agreed to the liberator summons may not be entirely innocent either... but we can still trust him more than the others"

"Well... the king of this country could have been an almost independent force, speaking of which"

Previously, I heard that kings and royal castles were only one of the few forces, one of the institutions, in Gardeus.

Conversely, it is unlikely that there will be a cow ear for everything.

"What shall I do? That guy... should we go back to port to rendezvous with Goto once"

"I don't know. It doesn't seem strange coming to Gardeus ahead of time because it's about him."

"I see, it's conceivable. Plus... maybe we'll be carrying Sole and Seven Stars to Gardeus. Then we won't be talking about war anymore, and we might get all the attention on the continent, and we'll pass it on to Goto."

"Uh... did you have that too? In the end, what's the good news, you seven stars?"

I was checking the status in my eyes as I turned to the seven stars I hauled out.

[NAME] Thundergod Elecler

[Race] Six/Sub-god of the Seven Stars

[Occupation] Grand Cleric/Nanny

[Level] 3

[Title] Mediator

Mother Earth Incarnation

Vicious Vessel

[Skills] Culinary Babysitting Song Thunderdemon Guided Argument Soul Discipline

At least, I didn't think it was very evil to see this status complete.

But one thing bothers me is the title 'Vessel of Evil Reverse'. This... what the hell is this?

"... Anyway, let's wait for the three of us now. We'll talk about it later."

"Right...... three people? With Mr. Leue and Mr. Reis...?

"No! No way, Lord! Did you leave Beppin alone again?!?

"Ha. Not far without hitting it. There's another pretty lady on board."

Especially since that's a very close beauty to you.

As such, wait another hour while slowly healing the wounds of the battle. I saw Lue and the others riding the magic car from the end of the road I cut open.

It is Lue who serves as your lord. Seeing us already taking a break, turning a rugged look into something that seems happy.

"Hey! Everybody okay? - Hey!? If you were hurt or something, you'd be cured!

"Please! Look, all three of you, come here."

When the demonic car stops, Piong and her jump right off and cast a healing magic on the three of them.

"It's been a long time since all three of us. Ginnia, you're badly hurt. I'll fix you up a little bit."

"It's been a while, Mr. Leue. It helps."

Everyone must have been relaxed by Lue's appearance, his eyes narrowed comfortably and he healed himself.

But in the meantime, the door to the passenger car opens, and with Reis...

"This... must have been quite a fight... to Lord Nao, Lord McKenzie, and... Lord Zinnia, wasn't it? Well done, you're safe..."

The look on your face and that of Grandpa Ken, Nao, who admitted to the appearance of Mr. Stilia, who stepped down, hardens.

Right. Because it is the appearance of a companion who was said to be in a state of imminent death and unable to expect recovery.

"Stiglia......!? Why... no... why can't I..."

"Nooo!? Nushi, its body...... no way!?

"... Yes. Dear Nao, I have not been able to do anything."

With that said, she shows her forehead, which was probably scarred badly.

"Lord Lewis and Lord Caivon have healed you with all their might."

"Oh, my God - I didn't even know what I was. He said he healed things!

"Oh, that's... because that's..."

From the mouthfeel, did Nao know what the symptoms were? [M]

"... Fortunately, I have a little knowledge of those symptoms. She's definitely healthy right now."

"Huh! You're really okay, Stilia!

Because you were certain, Nao, you hugged Miss Stiglia, Grandpa Ken looked happily at how it was going, and Leis softly offered a handkerchief to the tearful old body.

But in the midst of such emotion, only Lue had a harsh look on his face, and quietly...

"Kai-kun. This... this ice... Seven Stars, right?

"Oh. Definitely, I confirmed. They say Six of Seven Stars" Thunder God Elecler ""

"There's no doubt about this ice. It's with what I sealed the Dragon God. Well... it looks like you were sealing the magic of this forest itself with food, not people... and the same technique was born here."

"You mean you were balancing an infinitely eroding forest with a seven-star seal..."

"Probably. I wonder if this forest was also originally created as part of a seal...... Perhaps it was besides me who got Mr. Rainey's help..."

"I see. Speaking of which, it looks like Mr. Rainey was instrumental in completing Lue's operation."

"Yeah. You're a guy called the Raindrop Miracle. Oh well... let's develop it further. It's a ritual..."

Discussing, everyone who enjoyed the joy of reunion comes to the side.

"Mr. Leue, and to Mr. Caivon, Mr. Reyes. Thank you so much for healing my people, Stilia."

"Heh, you're welcome, yeah. I've got a pretty healing magic arm on this one, too, so you're gonna have to tell me as soon as something happens."

"Yes! And it's really best that you're not hurt.... you were looking at the Seven Stars"

"Yeah. I think it's definitely a seven-star. I just... can't feel my will. Even the sealed Seven Stars are willing. That's what I can't feel at all..."

"Willing…?

"Yes, and - the sealing ceremony itself is kind of very weak..."

Does that mean I'm about to wake up already?

Was it still unsavory to move the ice if......

"No, it's not. Is this ice already a sealing ritual? I'm out of a big operation. I told you earlier, the woods are dying. Maybe that's why."

"Uh, so you're saying that the Seven Stars will wake up already?

"... maybe if there's a trigger from the outside... but you're not going to do that yet, are you? Nao, you have other ideas, don't you?

When they said that, Nao, you nodded quietly and shared your thoughts.

"Liberation, I believe, doesn't have to be right now. We've moved so far to stop exactly the war that's going on right now, but there was some kind of will hidden there. If this seven-star thing is possible, it's my idea now to take it back to our country, publish the facts to a large extent, and see how it gets out. Above all... I still have someone to listen to."

Then, Nao, you point your gaze at the black mass placed in the corner of the ruins.

Right. I guess I'll have to talk to him out of it first.

Former liberator. And with a terribly high level and immortal body, Nao, you say 'the greatest enemy on the continent'.

"Yeah? That, what?

"I tore the bad guy apart and sealed him in."

"Ugh! Didn't he die already?

"Apparently, he's immortal, and I couldn't even kill him."

"... I see. This is who you should listen to. If they're undead, I think it's my turn to be the Holy Knight..."

"Oh. Anyway, it's okay to get these seven stars out of this forest because they're already disconnected from the seal, right?

"Yeah, I think it's okay. Let's organize the passenger car and make a place."

I never dreamed that I would put the Seven Stars on the Magic Car, which in some ways could be considered natural enemies of the journey. Fortunately, the Magic Car I borrowed was sometimes a large object that I assumed would increase in number, and I decided to secure ice with a rope inside the luggage frame provided on the roof.

And then everybody got in the magic car, put the black chunk of the example in your seat just in case, and I came to the point where I was ready to serve as your...

"Master Kaivon, please wait a moment"

"What's up, Ginia?"

You noticed something before Ginia got in the demonic car, and you ran out to the side of the ruins that collapsed under the influence of Nao you or my blow.

Something seems to be watching the rubble on the edge...

"It's moving. This is where there was a small hole. Were you in some kind of hole?"

"Hmm. Let's go somewhere."

Going nearby, the debris does shake a little. It's like someone's pushing it from the other side.

And while you're on your guard, you can get rid of that rubble.

"Cheesy! Cheeky, cheeky, cheeky!

"Ha ha ha ha! Finally, because of the escape, these hams! Everybody out in a hurry. Ham!

"Cheesy!

It's just the sun girl, Hamu. Why are you here...?

And how many other hamsters are there?

"Ah! Black brother ham! I need you to step aside for a second. Ham, we're all getting out of here."

"Cheesy!

"Oh, oh..."

In the meantime, the area around the ruins entrance was filled with massive hamsters.

Then, Lue, who was in the demonic car, jumped out in a great panic...

"Wow! What's the matter, mummy! Take so many friends!

"White sister! Here, Hamu's secret hideout. of course everyone, when the time comes, we will go here."

"... this is... indeed the ham rats suddenly disappear at one point... no way to go here...?

A bunch of hamsters. We were talking about a species who would help and live in the house as we crossed the houses, but that the end point was this place...?

"Ha Mu. Are all the hamsters coming together in this place?

"Huh. Gather here, and disappear again. So I was born somewhere else. I'm going here. Hamu is special, so this is how he comes back from time to time and takes care of everyone's nest Hamu. But I was hiding here with some nasty signs."

"Is that... are you okay now?

"Hmmm... Minutes apart. Ham. But the woods are a little back to normal. We'll all build a new nest."

Then, as if to echo the proclamation, the assembled ham rats rushed out to the nearby woods in unison, cheering with delight.

"I said the forest is dead... apparently there's still some forest left before it was originally grown. Oh well... I've been wondering about those kids staying small for a long time, but they were all the same as Hamu and they were 'Spirit Species'"

"Spirit species... are they a little different from creatures?

"I wonder if it's halfway between creatures and spiritual bodies. The spiritual power of the place is willed, and over the years it becomes one event, and that's what we've got, the visible being, the entity. Just like Hamu did, so did all the other kids."

"I don't know why this is where everyone comes from... but why are you in a place like this... by chance"

Then, instead of pursuing after the Ham Rats who disappeared simultaneously, Mu was left behind, but approached Tokotoko and the devil's car to see if it was something that bothered him.

I'm worried about the ice loaded on the roof.

"Sister in armor, I want you to pack your seat a little. Ha. Come on."

"Oh, are you going up? If so... Yes, shoulder car."

"It's not mendiculous. Hum. I need you to show me up a little bit. Ham."

As Mr. Stiglia descends and carries Hamu on his shoulder, Hamu climbs straight onto the roof.

"This way, it's dangerous, Hamu."

"Hmm? Black brother, I'm taking this guy, huh? This guy, he's been in the nest forever."

"The Ham Nest... Could you have lived in the back of that ruin?

"Mm-hmm. But now that someone I don't know is coming, we were all hiding in a different room. Ham. If you want to take him, Hamu will follow him with you."

"Together... are you all right with my people?

"It's okay now, Ham. Everyone builds a new nest here and mattoes the tenge. Ham. So we're going on a new journey."

Are you going to go back to the original Spirit and travel to the world again?

I've always thought of him as a strangely trivial child with a slightly deviant outlook on death, as I've been somewhere agreeing... is that what this is all about?

For her, living and dying was not just a cycle of repeated visits, but a normal journey around the world.

"Yeah!? Are they going to die? No, you can't. No."

"Shi - Prepare for a trip -... not a goodbye -... Prepare to meet -"

"Hey, that's kind of weird summa..."

Now I know that this place was originally a sacred forest that produced even spiritual species... but if it had been placed for a long time, it would have been sealed before the birth of a hamster.

"For once, shall I take Hamu with me? You may be able to hear some helpful stories, or you may have a clue about these seven stars."

"Ooh! You can't take me! Then the ham is grabbed by the rope with this ice."

"Here. You can't because it's dangerous. Hamu is next to me."

"Okay, Ham."

"Then I'll take your seat to open the place. Master Kaivon, if you'll excuse me next door."

With that said, Ginia plays that black chunk sideways with her ass.

... I felt like I was just grinning a little bit about what I cared about and what I was thinking.

It should be noted that Rayce, who was late, turned his regrettable gaze to Ginia, but immediately had no choice but to return to the passenger car.

That's how I get reports from Zinnia as I drive the demon car through the woods.

He said he seemed to be observing movements among the leading players in the surrounding countries trying to get into the liberators and among the humans of each of the forces based in Gardeus.

"Honestly, the humans trying to get in the neighboring countries were shallow in their thoughts and decided they weren't enough to take. I don't think you have the ambition to send in children with any special training."

"You were purposefully gathering information about yourself... what if something happened"

"It's okay. I was officially judged by the Alliance and this time I got an S in the Alliance's rank system. No one threatens me."

"Still, so. Strength is not all about force. Be a little more careful. Well, thank you for gathering this information. Thank you, Ginia."

"Yes. I don't know, it's a strange feeling, to be praised for"

Still listening to her report afterwards, Nao said there were three kinds of people approaching you.

Nao, the one who thinks about getting into you and smoking sweet juice.

Nao, the one who tried to monitor your behavior and report it to their employer.

Nao, the one who was trying to obstruct your march and delay your liberation.

In this, the third force is arguably the most frigid.

but all of its forces were human beings sent from inside Gardeus, he said.

"The state has called it in, obstructing liberation..."

"I don't think it's otherwise strange. War, because a massive battle… makes dramatic advances in technology, and makes a lot of money. I remember those moves, too"

"... Speaking of which, you were also the head of the private army."

"Yes. My brother, Linnea is a more familiar area though. Perhaps even after returning to Gardeus there will be movement… you should think of a way to stitch it up and make it immobile"

"... right. In the worst case scenario, I can move directly to restrain them."

Yes, Nao, I was full of heads about you and your people, but this continent is still in the middle of a war.

Wherever the scourge of war reemerges, it's not strange, because that's the situation.

Thus, the march continued smoothly to safely drive through the woods, to spend another night together in the abandoned village where we spent the night, and to return to Gardeus.

In three days, we'll reach Gardeus, until we're on the border streets.

"Ladies and gentlemen, I will stop the magic car once."

It was about a week after the start of the march.

Stiglia, who was the man of the day, stops the magic car with its proclamation.

When I got off the bus with what had happened, Mr. Stiglia jumped from the passenger seat and headed towards a group of knights wrapped in armor that was solidifying at the end of the path.

"Is that... some trooper...?

Rushing over to the group, he also spoke to Lue, and found out that it was the face he had seen.

Mercenaries who used to cook at the camp. For whatever reason, the man I once fought for, the Border Uncle of Endrecia, who was also a private soldier there, is the leader.

"You... joined the brave army."

"Lord Caivon, do you know him? It is true that these men are haunted by the armor that is given to our army to the brave army..."

"Yeah, he's a slightly marginal opponent. Are you okay? I'll take care of it now."

When the chased Lyue activated the restorative magic, the armored men slowly moved out and began to remove the helm.

"... Husband...? Heh, sorry to hear that, but we're the losers. We were originally mercenaries, we were going to fight until we died, so we ran away... and some of them got hit."

"Disabled...... wait, where are the prostitutes deploying now? The front line should have been more harbor side."

"Huh? Dude... I know you, you're the vice president, right? Why are you here..."

"Answer me, where have you been fighting?"

"... ahead. We were told to attack from the other side of the border before being sent to the front."

"Stupid... that side is a rural area with a lot of residents unrelated to the battle... who's in command..."

Apparently, there is a battle ahead that should not happen.

It's also in that place where even unrelated residents live, only about three days away from Gardeus.

"... Kai-kun, the timing is kind of..."

"Oh. Maybe it was a failure to pull Mr. Stiglia away from Gardeus..."

But at the same time... can this be a good opportunity to temporarily interrupt the war?

"I'm sorry I just got treated, but can you guys please help me dive somewhere safe? I can't carry you right now."

"That's not a problem, I'll be on guard against any undelivered bastards coming at me in the nearby countryside. I'm sorry, I'm not gonna tell you this, but let me tell you this."

The leader of the mercenary regiment stares me straight in the eye, even though it seems difficult to say where.

"If you... can't you? About turning back the people we just attacked."

"... oh, I can. But you're going to join one country or another... no, you've already done enough,"

"Hehe, it's also the idea that he's too strong. But... if there's anything you can do, it's the right of the unwilling to do something about it. So..."

"... as peacefully as possible, we'll have a temporary truce."

Drop off a group leaving and give instructions to Mr. Stiglia.

'Put me down, I want you to go back to Gardeus right now. Wherever the battle keeps, it just goes straight'.

Kai-kun, what are you going to do?

"... I think when we stop a big fight, it's usually time we faced such a disaster that we couldn't help ourselves."

"... this time, if we stand out, it could get worse for you guys. Plus... there's that black chunk thing. If anything happens to you..."

"Lue would have stacked the seal from above, wouldn't she? It's okay. I'll be right back."

You just have to be a disaster. My power can do that. I shaped the woods a while ago, that's how easy it is, right?

"Lord Caivon... this is an untouchability in our country"

"Perhaps so. But...... maybe you don't have to contend, fight at this time when you might find the means to do so. I feel a little sick making it just the way I want it to be. Plus, the other country, Mayrant, has a little edge. It may be a small reason to stop the fight... but I'll still move."

"... ok. Whatever the consequences… I swear I will give you back, even if I forsake my loyalty now. Please... be safe."

Return to your seat, Mr. Stiglia. And Lue returning to the passenger car.

You two already know why I'm staying here.

And on this occasion, I understand why people other than myself - those in the Gardeus faction - are still the enemy.

"Master Kaivon! How come you don't ride!

"Hey, errands! Wait for me in Gardeus!

"Mr. Caivon!? What are you going to do!

"For wild!... Oh yeah, Nao, keep this for me!

Because it's just fine, I take out the 'ring' that I haven't put on lately and throw it to you, Nao.

Nice catch.

"Put it back on when I get back. Until then, will you take good care of yourself?"

"Huh! Okay!

A magic car that gradually gets far away. And now I have Grandpa Ken's voice and Lace's voice.

"Kai! The secret liquor, I'll have it for you!

"Mr. Kai, I don't need to hope you're all right now! Come on, come home soon!

"Copy that, both of you! Then I'm coming!

Then he dropped off the magic car and headed to the battlefield where he was taught...

"You've worked great since we got here, Demon King... you might as well be in disguise"

We could spread our wings and fly the sky into the conspiracy swirling battlefield.
