The fifth arena finally reached after a meal with Anima.

It shouldn't be so different from the arena it's been built so far, but it looks somewhat intimidating when you finally think it's the strongest King of War Five.

"... are Lilia and the others inside?

"Sounds like it. Maybe he's trying first."

I'll take a look around the entrance, but I didn't see Lilia and the others. So I think I'm trying Mr. Agni first, and I'm going inside the arena with Anima.

Moving on a little bit, I heard something like cheer and combat noise.

Moving a little faster, I saw everyone near the entrance to the wide arena.

"Oh? Mr. Kite. Good luck."

"Mr. Sieg! Sorry to keep you waiting...... Could you be trying now?

Mr. Sieg finds me and speaks to me, so I join everyone as I gently bow my head.

"Yep... it won't be long before 'Everybody Fails the Challenge', including the lady"

"Yeah!?

When I heard what Mr. Lunamaria had said, I immediately moved my gaze near the center of the arena...... where I could see Agni, who was sitting quietly, and Lilia, who was trying to put the Great Sword up and down.

A full-blown blow from the great upper section of Lilia, who boasts tremendous power… That is why Agni takes that attack lightly, 'with one hand', without moving from the spot, which would also be comparable to that of a high-ranking Earl Demon clan.

"... good offense. But there's still a murmur in magic."

"Gu......"

It was an overwhelming sight.

If Mr. Lilia unleashes a series of attacks, he takes all of them with one hand without moving a single step, and unleashes tornado-like magic, he just mists it by waving one arm unwrought.

Even if Mr. Lilia attacks at such a speed that I can't perceive, I'm not even hostile to changing Mr. Agni's look.

An overwhelming difference in strength that even I, the amateur, can understand in battle... This is the power of the five warlords...

In the end, Mr. Agni cut Lilia's attack without moving a step, and after the expiration of time, Mr. Lilia failed the challenge.

"... it wasn't bad. Expect the next opportunity"

"Yes... thank you..."

Lilia returns with a tired look, breathing heavily on her shoulders.

"Mr. Lilia, are you okay?

"Mr. Kate, yeah, Dear Agni, headed by the five kings of boulder warfare... I had a handful, but I didn't have any hands or feet"

"Instead, I watched other challengers while I waited for Master Miyama... it's like 'No one's been able to clear it yet'"

"... are you serious..."

Mr. Agni, how unforgiving is that? He said no one was cleared...

I speak to Anima, next door, while she is at war with what Mr. Lunamaria has said.

"... Anima, how confident are you to win?

"I'm sorry... I don't have anything else to say. Lord Agni has a different dimension even when compared to Lord Epsilon"

"Oh well..."

Mr. Agni seems strong enough to criticize that even Anima can't win before the challenge. Definitely the strongest of the five kings of war I've seen so far... honestly, Lilia. But if you can't win, it's about Eden or Pandora who seems to win on my behalf...

"This, Master Miyama. Welcome aboard."

"Ah, yes. Hi......... Er, sorry to bother you"

Then at that time, Agni, who had finished repairing the broken spot in Lilia's challenge, approached me and bowed his head deeply to me to say hello.

"A polite greeting, painful. I've already received reports from my subordinates, but I've already got four extra-large stamps... and the boulder is Master Miyama."

"Oh, thank you"

"But I am also entrusted with this occasion by Master Megido. Please note that you can't lose your hand."

"Yes!

I don't know, Mr. Agni may be rude to say unexpectedly, but he seems like someone who also uses a good word of respect in situations where he should use it.

Or isn't most of the King of War Five as brainstorming as well... apart from Mr. Kong...

And Mr. Agni keeps his words quiet, looking straight into my eyes.

"Dear Miyama, I apologize for your disrespect"

"Huh? Oh, yes. Go ahead..."

"I'm afraid, Master Miyama can't beat me for putting on the biggest handful. We recommend setting up a surrogate challenge."

"Oh, I see."

Well, I wasn't going to either... but what do we do?

When you can beat Mr. Agni, only Mr. Eden or Mr. Pandora really have a candidate. But Mr. Pandora seemed busy, and I don't really feel like getting in the way of his work.

That's why Mr. Eden... in that case, I'm afraid he's going to kill them by accident or something. Mr. Eden is anxious because he only thinks of the inhabitants of this world as really wormless.

But uh-huh. In the end, if you need to rely on one of them, is that Mr. Eden you can call right away? When it comes to additions and subtractions, if I ask heavily, I'll figure it out...

All the while, that's when I thought about it, I heard an unfamiliar voice from the rear.

"... then let's go out on my behalf"

"... Huh?

Looking back at the voice I heard, the first thought that came to mind was, 'Who?' It was.

Two coloured semi-shorthairs, black on the inside and gray on the outside, with amethyst purple eyes. He's about 140cm tall and feels small, but he looks really grand walking in arms.

The chest part of the garment, like a courtesy remodel of a skirt type military uniform, was worn with a black badge indicating that it was my companion.

... who is this guy really? I don't recognize him at all...

The mysterious woman walks straight to Mr. Agni and opens her mouth as she stares quietly at Mr. Agni.

"... this man is indelibly greatly indebted. I won't even be able to repay 10% of this amount... but I can't help but pay about the amount of interest. Therefore, let me serve you on my behalf... Any objections?

"Uh... well, which is it?

"... Huh!? That fool... you didn't explain it..."

While proclaiming in a relaxed manner, the woman who has thrown a word of confirmation at me is rigid when she hears my question.

And then a little bit, with a big sigh, he put one hand on his head, shrugged like a shudder, and then turned to me.

"My name is Iris... Iris Illuminus. Well, you know the guy called" The Big Fool's Partner, "too."

"... Huh?

Dear Sir, Mother, Father - a mysterious woman who suddenly appeared to challenge Mr. Agni. It's definitely my first meeting... but the name sounded familiar, or if my memory isn't wrong, this guy, Mr. Iris, is - Alice's best friend.
