The next morning...

(Mmm, what do you mean? Kensei Alisha...... I didn't know you wouldn't tell your husbands that while you realized who my son was...)

At the breakfast table, my balls were wondering.

It's important if you find out that monsters are mistaken for cats and live with humans, etc.

But Alisha doesn't tell Aria and the others knowing it. On the contrary, it's the end of advising your balls not to find out.

I can't help but wonder why...... I can't help it because I don't have the means to ascertain Alisha's thoughts.

While we're thinking about it, we all start moving to the mansion yard to finish our meals and start arching...... it was on the way -

"This... is a fantastic painting"

Aria stops walking and leaks her words as she looks up at the paintings decorated in the hallway.

"Aria, it's a portrayal of the First Brave and the Holy Beast."

"Awesome! This is the first brave man and holy beast, isn't it!

To Alisha's words, Aria leaks her words in an excited way.

Decorated paintings - there was a young man with one red eye and a lion with angelic wings, as leaning next to him.

The first brave men and the Holy Beast... are those who succeeded in temporarily sealing the demon god before the twilight of the demon god took place.

(They weren't well known to the public for their appearance, etc., but I'm surprised paintings exist in places like this)

My balls hold that feeling as I look up at the painting.

And staring at his balls, Alisha smiles quietly "hehe..." but... no one notices that.

A few weeks later...

"Sorry to keep you waiting! Everyone's artifacts have been activated successfully!

Vulcan voices echo in the garden as Aria and the others do their archery.

Starting the artifact - that means the artifact is complete.

Unlike normal weapons, artifacts need to wait for "awakening" before their performance is effective. It's commonly called "startup."

"I've been waiting for you! Try the performance now!

"- I'm afraid we don't have time for that."

It was right after Stella raised her voice of joy.

Belzevute's voice cracks and goes in.

There's no usual invincible grin on that look, it makes you feel serious. And on her forehead, there is a thin rash of sweat.

"That means... you found out where the Four Demons were resurrected, don't you, Belzebute?

"You're right, Alisha. And worst of all, it sounds like we're going to be resurrected in separate places..."

"" "... ugh!

Everyone on the spot, including Aria, breathes into Belzevute's words.

The Four Demons are powerful. I was therefore planning to stand up to Aria's team and Julius.

Even so, I didn't know that was going to resurrect one place at a time...

"The place of resurrection is the ruins near the capital of the kingdom of Alphus, and… in the labyrinth of a labyrinth city in this empire"

"Oh, no!

"By virtue of this, it's a labyrinth city!?

To the further words of Belzevute, the stunned Aria and Vulcan.

One of the two is in a labyrinth city...... I wonder what that means.

"Alisha, I need a favor from you."

Prince Julius stares straight at Alisha and spins his words quietly as the Arias make a scene.

"Ha... I predicted what you would ask me to do....... I have no choice. Let's say I go to the kingdom of Alphus… it's also my hometown, and it would be quicker for me to go alone at a distance"

"I'm sorry to ask you to stop fighting, but I'm sorry. Please..."

Prince Julius bows his head to Alisha in distress.

I asked her to stop fighting... and be my best friend's wife.

"Chi, wait a minute! Dear Alisha, I can't believe you're going alone...!

Aria breaks in with a sad face.

No matter how much the legendary Kensei, let the Four Demons do her alone... what a reckless thing.

- That's what you're trying to say.

"No problem, Aria"

"Oh, Alisha's stronger than me all season, and whatever she is, she's about the third best in this world."

"Nah......!?

To Alisha, who says it's no problem, Prince Julius' words nodding to it, Aria leaks a surprise voice.

I know Alisha's strength to be able to prevail even when dealing with an army of demons.

But you can't help but be surprised that that was beyond Prince Julius in his entire term as a brave man.

"That is why I turn to the kingdom of Alphus. Aria, guys, I got the labyrinth city, right?

With that said, Alisha smiles at everyone and starts getting ready to leave.

"Aria...... I know you're worried about Alisha, but first we think about ourselves."

"You're right, Aria. Even though there's a prince, even if you're all together, you're less powerful than Alisha? And Aria, you haven't yet mastered your derivative skills."

Alysha is followed by Vulcan, and Belzevute speaks to Aria.

Yes, it is. Thanks to their previous training, Aria and the others have become quite strong. As initially intended, Stella also succeeded in acquiring user-friendly derivative skills.

... but Aria has not yet mastered derivative skills. If I had a little more time... I'd have to keep going without a respite.

"Mr. Vulcan, Dear Belzebute...... I understand. Now we concentrate on our own battles that are about to begin."

To Vulcan and Belzebute's words, Aria nodded and began to prepare herself for exit.
