I hold the woman whose soul was taken by Gabriel with both hands and head to Lina's waiting room. For now, although [universal healing] was used to heal a woman's body wounds, she still did not return to consciousness. There will be no other way to undo this man than to take his soul back.

"Brother!

When I saw the inn, I saw Lina going outside and waiting for my return. Lina rushes up to me with a very worried face.

"It's Lina. It would be dangerous to be out late this evening."

"Shh, sorry, when I think of your brother, I can't be there or not... Is something wrong?

"I've had a fight with Gabri, one of the Seven Star Angels. Even so, they were separated."

"What!? So, were you okay!? Are you hurt?!?"

"Don't worry. As you can see, it doesn't have one scratch on it."

"Oh, good..."

Lina breathed very relieved.

"By the way, brother, what about the woman...?

"It's a woman whose soul was plucked by Gabriel."

"What...!?"

Lina looks at the woman with a blue face.

"Or can't you do anything about it anymore...?

"Unless you take your soul back. Carry the rest to a nearby hospital in the morning. It's not a matter of doctors being able to do something about it, but there's nowhere else they can keep it. I'm sorry, but until then, will you let me sleep in Lina's room?

"... yes, of course I'm fine"

I'm also a teenage boy. There's no guarantee I can sleep with an unconscious woman and stay rational until morning.

Me and Lina go inside the inn, put the woman to bed on the couch in Lina's room, and put on a blanket. Then she asked Lina to come to my room again and explained to Lina how it happened. Mainly about Sasha.

"A child born between an angel and a human being, is it..."

"Oh. Sasha said she wanted me to be one of them to wipe out the Seven Star Angels. I honestly admire your willingness to use the power of the King to achieve your purpose."

"So, what did you say?

"I have put my reply on hold, but I have other positions as king. I'm not going to be a human companion, but I think we can do enough to form a cooperative relationship temporarily."

I carry the tea Lina prepared to my mouth. [M]

"It's a little bit of a ride on human measures, but the remaining ultimate goal is to create a world where humans and demons can coexist. Then it is also necessary to show humans a cooperative attitude within the present. This is going to be that big step."

"Yes, I agree"

"... and some may have stirred up a protective appetite"

Sasha, a child, floats behind my brain. [M]

"Ho, protective appetite...?

"No, forget about that one now"

I'm telling you, I'm not Loricon. [M] It's a very normal emotion to think of a little girl as cute...... right?

"Speaking of which, you haven't heard from Henri since you left King's Castle."

You're probably very worried about Henri. I will try to contact Henri using the words. [M] To put it simply, it's like a phone that doesn't need a device. I hope he hasn't slept yet......

"Henri, it's over."

"Dear Yout!! I've been waiting for you to contact me with your neck longer!! I thought it would be annoying to hear from you...!! Is your body okay!? Are you feeling unwell!? '

Look, I knew I was so worried.

"Don't be dramatic, Henri, this one has nothing wrong. Sorry I haven't been able to reach you before. Is there anything unusual about King's Castle?

"Yes, nothing in particular"

"Right. I'm about to return to King's Castle a little further, so I thought I'd tell you about this first."

"What...!?"

"Hmm? What's up, Henri?"

'... no, it's nothing. Yes, sir. "

Suddenly Henri's voice tone dropped. Are you shocked to find out you won't be seeing me for a while? [M]

"And I'd like to ask Henri one thing, okay?

'Of course!! Please tell us what it is!!'

Now the tone of my voice went up. Seems pretty happy to be counting on me.

"This is information we have just received, but it turns out that angels use the Gate as a means of traveling to and from the earth and the sky."

"Gate, is it?

"Uhm. That gate exists somewhere in human territory. So I want you to use the demons of the champion army to identify the location of that gate. I'll leave command to you."

'Yes, I did. We will definitely meet your expectations.'

"... but never let the demons force you. We haven't established that the gate itself still exists."

"Of course I do."

Do you really understand? You won't be anxious to think about when you asked me to investigate the disappearance of your soul. If we can't find the gate, the demons are going to hurt themselves or something.

"That's it. Sorry to hear from you late at night."

'There is no extinction either. We look forward to hearing from you at any time'

I cut a note with Henri. [M]

It's only insurance that asked Henri to explore the gate. The Seven Star Angel wouldn't be stupid either, and it's likely that the usual gate doesn't allow it to be seen from the outside by some kind of spell. That would be best if the demons discovered the gate, but let's not expect too much.

"Tomorrow we head to Sasha's Azito as soon as possible. I want Lina to continue to act with me, okay?

"Of course! Even if you're my brother, I'll be with you everywhere in the trash in the fire!

I think I don't like it in the garbage.

The next morning. Having once again become a human figure with the [Transformation] spell, I decided to rely on the map Sasha gave me to go to Ajito after transporting the woman to the hospital. Lina is following me half a step back. [M]

As far as the map goes, the distance to Azito is not that far from here, and it seems about an hour on foot. You can use [Momentary Travel], but it's troublesome to transform again, and until recently the cage was clear in the castle, so it'll be just the right exercise.
