"Master...."

"Papa...."

A few days after that.

We were still in this ancient castle brought here by Dahaka.

"It's okay. Rock, Dora. Lily and Felid will be here soon to help."

I laughed brightly when I said that, but honestly, I wasn't sure if everyone would find out about this place.

At first, we also headed to the entrance of the castle to try to get out, but it was tightly closed and no matter how hard we tried, it didn't hurt.

In addition, I tried to use my ability to transfer locks to get out, but it seemed like there was a boundary around the castle that prevented the transfer of such locks, and the locks tried to transfer several times, but it failed.

Speaking of which, when Dahaka was transferred here, something magical appeared on the ground, which was slightly different from Rock and Tsurugi's transfer.

It's probably a special way to get in and out of this castle without magic.

(Holy shit... When that happens, I'm stuck...)

Unlike when I was exposed to Manticore before, there are too few clues to where I was taken this time.

That's why it's so hard for Lily, Felid, and Phytis to find this place...

That's what I was thinking, and someone's voice came from behind me.

"Don't be so pessimistic. Like I said, I'm not going to kill you. I just want you to grow something that turns monsters into humans."

Turning around, there was Dahaka with a creepy smile as she had seen before.

"... so you think I'll nod" Yes, is that so? "

"It shouldn't be a bad story. This is not a bad story for your fellow monsters."

When Dahaka said that, she looked at Dora-chan in my chest pocket, and when Dora-chan saw it, she would tremble slightly.

"... certainly some of the monsters want to be human, and many of them will be happy if I make it possible."

Oh.

In response to my reply, Dora looked at me with the look she expected somewhere in her chest pocket.

I have encountered monsters who admire people several times before.

Bechmos in Rostam's form.

Scarlet looked like Lily.

Perhaps Dora-chan and others would have thought that if they had become human.

And Aji Dahaka in front of you.

If I find a way to turn monsters into humans, there will be many monsters who want them.

Even with the manticore that raised Singh, if that were possible, you might want to be human and live by Singh.

Or even if you were Mime, who raised Felid, if you were human from the beginning....

Aji Dahaka is right, and if I were to make it possible, I might be able to prove an unprecedented and unprecedented evolution for this world.

But...

"Even if I do it, I'm not going to do it to you. After I get out of here safely, I'll just be the monster who wants it. I can't hear what he wants to do to keep us in captivity and make Luna sad."

"Master...."

"Papa...."

That was my conclusion.

We can't grow it for him here now.

If you want to do it, I want to do it against the monsters that deserve it.

As soon as I heard the answer, Dahaka sighed with dismay.

"Really... I'm sorry. I can't help but leave you here for as long as you want."

I stood up to the words.

No matter how precious my existence is, I realized that I wouldn't listen to my wishes, and what he would do would be to kill me!?

I thought so, but the next moment, the line that jumped out of Dahaka was unexpected.

"Well, let's get you out of here."

"Exit...?

"Yes, you may leave as you say."

"What about it?"

I made an unexpected stupid voice.

But Dahaka in front of her was serious, not joking.

Dahaka continued to wonder at me.

"You can't help leaving people here who don't want to grow. Besides, I can't pretend to kill you. No matter how little you grow for me, you will continue to grow a variety of plants. [M] It can be in my interest as a result."

"... then, can I go home...?

"Yes, I won't do anything to you."

On that line of Dahaka, I glanced at Rock next to me.

Can you go home, like this?

Then why don't you and I leave like this?

No, wait. We can't get out of here alone.

If we're getting out of here, of course he's with us.

"Then Luna will come with us."

Yes, I was clearly declaring to Dahaka in front of me, but...

"I can't do that."

Dahaka turned it down.

"What are you talking about!? Why are we here and Luna is no good!!

"Luna, oniichan is going home with me!!

It was me and Rock who protested, but the next answer returned was unexpected.

"Luna is not leaving. Because that's what Luna herself wants."

"Hmm, well...?

I unexpectedly consolidated the answer I received from Dahaka.

Doesn't Luna want it?

Don't you want to go home? With us?

"That's not true!!

It was me who accidentally roughed up my voice, but Dahaka told us with cold eyes like ice.

"Well, why don't you ask him?

What?

Someone appears behind him with that word from Dahaka.

It was an indisputable figure of Luna, and me, Rock, and Dora-chan spoke with some peace of mind as they saw her.

Luna!

"Hey, sweetheart!

"Luna! You're safe!

…………

We rushed to her, but there was no response from Luna, and for some reason she didn't want to look at us leaning.

"Luna?"

When I shouted at her with distrust, she murmured with her face down.

"... I'm sorry... Kyo..."

Huh?

Luna tells her before she asks what it is.

"I... can't be with you. I'm not like you anymore... Born to destroy the human beings who live in this world... it's Fraswerg..."
