Konjiki no Moji Tsukai (Reboot)

1992: What is Akwinas?

By the time Cochrot was defeated, the game of Judom VS Quilts was over, and Markis, Judom, and Lankonis moved on.

Just walk straight through the dark streets again.

"Hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey.

Marquis comes from behind as he walks through the top of the day.

"... that yellow monkey won't answer my call."

"Huh? Ki, Kizal?

It's the little animal I signed up for.

"... or maybe you could also make a deal with Hyiro, the Spirit?

Ah.

"Lie... because I've never seen anyone who can contract before. That sink couldn't have done that!

"You know what? It's called talent."

"Wow... self-portrait self-praise?

"I just have confidence in myself."

"... something really looks like a sink."

"Don't joke. He must have died because he couldn't believe himself to the end. If he hadn't died, this wouldn't have happened."

What Avolos is doing is this ridiculous thing that is directly linked to the death of Ash Kura Mahogany. If he hadn't died and was still alive, Avolos might not have thought of ruling the world.

"Yes... but the sink was full of confidence in the beginning, right? That's what kept everyone at the forefront of any predicament. It's okay because I'm here. That was his habit. No matter how worried I really am, I always get over it with a smile... I couldn't get angry."

"Love weakness?

"Ho, ho, ho, ho, you fell in love with me like that!?

"Don't you have it?

The sun stopped and stared at her face. Then gradually push and marquise out the hot air from your head. It was somewhat good to see her in a bad mood. It's always in return for being ahead of the curve.

"Come on, Hyiro, let's keep it that way. Markiss is a woman."

"Hey, hey, Judom! What does that mean? I'm not just a girl, I'm a pretty girl!

But it's Baba.

"Ugh!

Marquis is violently upset by the penetration of the sun. And then you inflate your cheeks.

"Ugugugugugugugugugugugugugugugugugugugugugugugugugugugugugugugugugugugugugugugugugugugugugugugugugugugugugugugugugugugugugugugugugugugugugugugugugugugugugugugugugugugugugugugugugugugugugugugugugugugugugugugugugugugugugugugugugugugugugugugugugugugugugugugugugugugugugugugugugugugugugugugugugugugugugugugu! I look so young... I certainly don't want to tell you how old I am... but I still call you a beautiful girl..."

She stared at it with a little tearful eyes, but when she shrugged her shoulders in the sun, she approached Lanconis and pointed at her finger.

"This is a real young girl, isn't it?

"Eh... eh!? Bi, boo...!?

Lanconis blushed her cheeks and screamed.

"You look young, but at your real age...."

"Oh, no! None! None of this talk!

"Hahahahahaha! One of the heroes of the past must be invisible to Hyero!

Judom laughs joyfully, but Marquis sharpens his mouth completely. Heavens and sunlight exhaled and talked about the continuation of the explanation earlier.

"As I said earlier, the yellow monkey is the 'Spirit' I contracted. This sword serves as an intermediary."

Show me the "Knife and Zangeki" carried on my waist.

"As long as this is here, yellow monkeys can be transferred instantly wherever they are, and if I call them, they will reply through the sword. But it's impossible."

"So something happened to Ten?

Judom's words drew his chin slightly in color.

Or maybe they're not able to metastasize.

The sun colours look around the darkness.

"Apparently, this is a distorted dimension of space itself. Well, we can force ourselves out, but I'm honestly not sure we can come back here again."

"I mean, yes. You're saying Hyiro might not be able to get inside even if he escapes?

"Ah, so it's more efficient to hit the culprit who created this labyrinth than to go out in a circumvention. That's less anxiety."

"Ten doesn't come back to you because the space is twisted?

"Maybe. Either way, how do we solve that Temple Demon King, fortuneteller?

"... that should be it."

"Then just aim for it. Fortunately....."

When the sun colour was activated by writing "Explore" in the air, the blue and white magic turned to the arrow and pointed in the direction.

"He's right up ahead, and he's telling me how to do it."

Ha ~ Wow, that's a handy magic.

Judom was impressed to see even rare creatures. Lanconis is desperately writing something in a notebook that he took out of his pocket somehow.

"Hey, writer apprentice."

"Huh? Ah, well, maybe that's me?

"Of course. What the hell are you doing?

"Ah, here it is...."

Show me.

"Ha, yes...."

When I checked that the color of the day was receiving a notebook from her, there was a detail about the color of the day. The appearance, personality, and magic are all fine characters that make Bissilito.

"... what is this? You're not a stalker, are you?

"Chi, no! Oh, oh, oh, I'm glad you didn't tell me to be an exclusive writer!

…… So what is it? "

I did say that, but I didn't think there was a causal relationship between that and looking into the color of the sun.

"Well, I'm going to write a story about you anyway."

"Ho! That sounds like fun!

"Ah, maybe I'd like to read it."

Judom and Marquis seem to be attracted.

"... wait a minute, I'm not ashamed to read that."

I'm not narcissistic enough to think it's fun to write a story about myself. Just what's in your head, such as a life record, is enough.

"No way. Write something else."

"Uh-huh!

"Hey, why are you guys so sorry?

A Japanese colour that stares at Judom and Marquis.

"No, I don't think so, Hyiro. I'm sure it's funny how many stories I've written about your life.

"That's right. I write sink-themed stories, but they're quite popular.

"You know, it's an interesting thing for you guys, but it's a shame for me."

"Isn't that nice, Hyiro, and if such a book comes out, the demon king will be happy too?

"Ah? Why is the Demon King out here?

"... eh? Didn't you notice?

"What happened?

"... is that a lie? It's easy to understand the attitude of the Demon King...."

Judom looked stunned and stared at the color of the sun, but the color of the sun that he didn't understand was just a glare.

"No, Judom. It's kind of like the fate of" The Writer. "

"Ha ~ Are you making other women cry... oh my god!"

I hear the interaction between the two in silence, but I feel like I'm being made a fool of, and the anger that I don't appreciate the color of the sun is getting in my way.

"Anyway, my story is rejected!

Lanconis is clearly depressed with his shoulders down.

"... hey Hyiro, isn't it too late to try it out?

"What about it?"

"I'm a writer too. And I'm not mistaken about her eyes."

…………

"So first, why don't you take a look at what she wrote and then blame her? It's an insult to the creator to refuse even though nothing has yet taken shape."

"No, my portrait rights in the first place... no, I don't think there's anything like that in this world..."

"That's good! If you can't, you just have to read it and seal it."

…………

The sun colours look at Lanconis's face. And with a serious look, he said, "Please let me write!".

"... hah, okay. But if you write it, show it to me first. Don't show it to anyone else. Can you promise?

"Ha, yes!

Lanconis smiles happily as he tightens the notebook collected from the Japanese color. Markiss and Judom also said to her, "Good!".

(That's my story... is it that funny in my life?

To be clear, the intensity of the life that the sun colour is living has an incredible density in ordinary people, but I didn't really understand the sun colour that I neglected.

As the sun coloured the path of darkness, there was a door to discover.

"I'd be happy if he was around."

As the sun whispered, he put his hand on the handle of the sword and kicked the door in alert. The pleasant pleasure was spreading there. It looked like a large depression standing now, and there were several holes around it.

"This looks like a mine. I wonder if he's digging something up."

As Markis said, there are traces of excavation.

"Well, it's a different space created by Avolos, and I'm not sure if it's actually there."

"Hey, there's a guy down there!

In the direction Judom pointed his finger, there was certainly a man down. And I'm not alone. When the sun colours rushed, there was...

"Osan!?

Anold fell down with blood on him. And it was Crouch who fell in the same way near him.

"We're still breathing! Hyiro!"

"I know."

We need to get information from both of them about what happened. The sun color heals the wounds engraved on both bodies using the letter "healing".

(This wound is a sharp blade wound... which means the opponent is quite a swordsman...?

Besides, chopping up two people who can use the Conversion so far is quite a user. I'm not sure if it's a sword or a sword, but one thing I can say is that I have considerable strength.

(Besides....)

The color of the day checks around and notices strange things. It's too beautiful around anyway. If we fought here, we should see more signs of destruction.

However, no such thing was seen, but only the blood of the anolds was scattered around.

(You're not arguing? Or was it done unilaterally without developing into a struggle?

In the latter case, the two would have been knocked down in a few seconds. It's true that Anold is weaker than the rest of the fierce, but it's going to take a long time to defeat him. One of Crouch's "Three Beasts" will be added to it, so if you're dealing with waves, you'll lose rather than struggle.

(Wait... one... maybe more than one opponent?

If that's the case, I can explain that they were surrounded at once and did it without any surgery. But even so, it is still strange to see no signs of resistance at all.

Anyway, in order to solve this problem, we need to hear from both of you. With their Japanese magic, they are now surrounded by pale blue and white light. The light gradually diminishes. The time has come to finish the treatment.

When the light completely disappeared, Judom and Lankonis were stunned at the two people who appeared from there.

"Here, this is Letter-making ...."

"S, amazing... ah, memo!

Lanconis takes out his notebook again and writes down the situation by looking at the two people who lost all their wounds with the Japanese magic.

Wake up, Osan.

"... uu"

"Hey, hey, wake up!

"Uhh...."

It's the color of the day when I speak to Anold, but I'm irritated by him, who hardly happens. And then he leaked one sigh.

"Osan... is the little one being hugged by a man?

"Aaaaaaaa! Who gave me permission to help my beloved My Angel! They're killing you. Whoa!

Anold finally woke up, spitting dirty words like yakuza.

"Finally, Osan."

…… Hiro? Kukuku, I see... how nice of you to be hugging Muir! Fine! Let's settle this right here... "

Because it is depressing, the sun color releases the letter "pain" towards the anold.

"Ha! I don't know your soul gall! That's what I'm gonna do!

Anold senses the movement of the sun color and jumps up and dodges the flying characters. However, when the sun color is half-eyed and the finger is bent toward the anold, the letter also quickly changes the direction of travel to the sky, and perhaps the letter directly hits the crotch of the anold.

"Mmm-hmm!?

Anold felt a shock to his crotch and suffered severe pain. Then he fell to the ground, holding his crotch down with both hands.

Judom also unexpectedly put his hand on his crotch, without heart or inner crotch. I'm sure you imagined the pain Anold was feeling.

The color of the sun can understand the pain, so I distorted my face a little, but I thought the jumped anode was bad and kept staring at the anode that was struggling on the ground.

"Ah, um... are you okay?

Judom spanks his cheeks as he sees Arnold speaking while Lankonis looks unusual and in pain.

"No, maybe he's suffering hell now. Look... it really hurts... but it's not a word."

"Hah, hah..."

Lanconis won't know. But Judom was right, "Mugi! Mugigigigigigigigigigigigigi!" A lot of tears are pouring out of Anold's eyes as he moans on the ground.

"... what a terrible thing to do, Hyiro"

"I don't know. Because Osan's mistaken."

"... that's your fault, right?

Markiss was completely stunned by his Japanese words and deeds and dropped his shoulders. And after a while, Crouch woke up.

"Ah, she's awake.

Now Crouch is not a black leopard human in combat, but a moffy little girl like a white cat. They must have returned to their original form after being defeated.

"...... nh...... nh...... smells like hiiro......"

I feel that the color of the day is aggressive, and I try to write a new letter immediately.

"Hmm!? Hyiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiii!

It was already late, and the moment Crouch captured the color of the sun in his vision, he jumped in. She hugged me with her hands around her neck from the front.

"Oh, that's depressing! Get away from me, girl!

"Nah, nah, nah!" I was so scared! "" I want you to comfort me! "

"You! You're a warrior in that way! Don't be sweet!"

"Only Hiro can sweeten it!" NNNNNNNNNNNNNN!

Move your head by rubbing it against your glue and sunny chest.

"Yes, it hurts, it hurts!?

Crouch - real name syrup is pretty powerful. Compared to simple strength, it has an arm strength that makes it impossible to know whether it can be won even in Japanese colours. My head hurts so much when I'm hugged by that force.

"This... this bullshit..."

The sun colour was quickly activated against her with the letter "Paralysis" in her right hand.

"Hmm!?

Crouch lost his strength and began to convulse little by little. When the sun colour peeled her from her body and put her on the ground, she finally exhaled with relief.

"Too much..."

Markis looked at her and said, "What did you do? And he said," I'm numb. "

"... after all, you can't talk to me from either side..."

I don't know what to do. Both seem easy and difficult to handle. And it was a little bit of a curse on my fate in line with this situation.

After a while, I finally heard the story, so I asked them what happened. Then the sun colour and Judom could not accept their words honestly.

Of course, Marquis was, but the sun color and the shock Judom had... especially Judom's shock seemed to have been enormous, and it still solidified like it stopped time.

"... hey, Osan, are you sure? What are you talking about?

"Oh, I was surprised, too. That's why Crouch and I were so creepy."

"What a stupid story....."

Does Judom still not believe it, or is his body trembling with chatter? But I know how it feels. Anold and Crouch are not liars. What they just said is what they actually experienced, and even if they felt uncomfortable there, it would be true.

"Judom-san, I can't help but believe you. But... it's true."

Anold turned his gaze to Judom, shaking his heavy lips and saying again.

"It was Akwinus who defeated us."

When Arnold was trapped in the [Ancient Alternative Dimensional Labyrinth Macbara] created by Avolos, the surrounding scenery instantly changed and stood in a place like a large pocket.

"Oh, where is this place!?

I felt as if it had metastasized, but I thought Avolos had metastasized everyone who was there. Because I decided that I would never be alone.

"Anold!"

Standing astonished, Anold turned around to hear a familiar voice from behind. Crouch is running there, and I think Anold will be relieved.

It is truly a pleasure to have company beside me.

"Master Crouch!

"Anold was here too."

"Yes, but I don't know where we are...."

Crouch suddenly sharpens his eyes and looks at one of the many holes around him.

"Well, what's the matter?

Crouch stares with hostility, so Anold looks at the hole and thinks he's the enemy and holds his sword.

"... is there something?"

As Crouch swallows his spit and keeps staring into the hole, he can definitely hear the snails and the footsteps of someone coming from the darkness.

The two were as vigilant as they could, and when they saw the person coming out, they calmed down.

"Hmm, what is it... General Akwinus..."

It was Akwinas who appeared in a majestic manner while shaking his long red hair.

Anold took a deep breath and put his sword into his sheath. Crouch is losing his hostility.

"I'm sorry I startled you. Somehow I was moved into this hole."

Akwinus approached them and explained.

"By the way, General, do you know where this is?

Akwinas answers Anold's question with an eye on his surroundings.

"This is the [Ancient Alternative Dimensional Labyrinth Macbura] created by Adams, who was once the first demon king."

"What the hell is that?"

"In a labyrinth created in a different dimensional space. It's a place that embodies Avolos' imagination. The others must be somewhere in this labyrinth. They're probably fighting the enemy there."

Apparently, Avolos would lock himself up in this labyrinth and buy us some time.

"How do I get out?

"If you go through a door somewhere in this space, you can go to another space. If we continue this way, we will eventually reach Avolos. Avolos should be focusing on maintaining the labyrinth now. If you stop it, the labyrinth will collapse and return to its original state."

"I see. Let's find the door!"

"That's right! Let's split up and look for it..."

Hold on a second.

When they tried to move, Akwinus stopped. Anold and the others glanced at Akwinus' face and his wild voice echoed both ears.

"... you're retiring here."

"... eh?

They both open their eyes at the same time. Suddenly, the moment Akwinus murmured something and moved his hands, he thought multiple flashes were running, and in an instant, blood erupted from both bodies.

"─ ─!?

Anold feels a burning fever all over his body and distorts his face with intense pain. And then the shock that was transmitted to Dogo and Hatomoto. It turns out that Akwinus was struck by the pattern of the sword he had some time ago. Crouch was similarly under attack.

"Nh, why...!?

Within his dimming consciousness, Anold's vision reveals Akwinus, who looks coolly down. I don't know why he attacked us all of a sudden. Anold's head was filled with confusion.

And it was Muir's face that was behind Anold's head that he thought he was going to be killed.

(I'm sorry... Muir)

Thinking of her dear daughter's face, Anold drowned her consciousness in darkness.

That's what I'm talking about.

Anold told me that Akwinus was suddenly distracted, and the sun coloured his eyebrows with his hands on his chin and spinning his thoughts.

I don't know why Akwinus betrayed me suddenly.

"Is there such a stupid thing! There's no way that Akwinus is on Avolos's side! He treats the Demon King like his real daughter!

Because Judom is the only one of them who has ever fought Akwinus to death, you believe that Akwinus is not a betrayer.

"But he hurt Osan and the others. If I was bad, I'd be dead."

"Well, that's...."

Luckily, the color of the sun visited here, but the amount of bleeding was definitely dead before long.

"... Osan, did it look like someone was manipulating him?

"... I wonder. I don't think Crouch and I are close to that guy."

That's true, too.

If someone from the "Magus" had been here, someone might have felt uncomfortable with the state of Akwinus, but unfortunately, it is a regrettable reality that there were only Anolds who had barely spoken to Akwinus.

"It's possible that the redhead is manipulated by the Temple Demon King, or that the redhead that Osan and the others met was fake in the first place."

"I'm sure it is. Otherwise, I can't believe he betrayed me."

Judom supports the hypothesis of a Japanese colour.

"Assuming. Whether he's red-haired or not, it's true that he's turning on his enemies. And he's strong enough to beat the Others in an instant."

"Yu, I was just alarmed!

Crouch rushed to defend himself.

"Arrest is the cause of defeat, right? It doesn't change when you lose."

"Uhh... uhh"

Shun and depressed syrup was the exact picture of an angry child.

"Hey, writer apprentice. Do you know anything about this?

The colour of the sun makes me want to get information from Lanconis. However, she shook her head aside in an unfortunate manner.

"No, in fact, even though I belong to Matal Deus, people like the dead and me were not allowed to attend important meetings."

"... I see."

In other words, I assumed that Lanconis would betray them eventually. Also, considering that the dead would return to sanity if they destroyed the Magic Stone, they didn't tell us anything important to keep the information from leaking.

After all, I was impressed by Avolos when he said that he was quite prepared to move around.

"For now, I can't help but jiggle here. Let's get out of here."

Everyone nods back to the Japanese words.

(If that redhead really betrayed you, you'll see when you meet the Temple Demon King)

Behind my Japanese brain, I remember the past when I drank alcohol with Aquinas. Having dealt with him doesn't seem like a betrayer. However, if you are turning your enemies beyond the idea of Japanese colour, no one is more troublesome than you.

The opponent is the most powerful man in the "Magus Clan". If there is a collision, there is a high probability of death.

With Avolos and the demons and Akwinus, I finally felt that things were getting worse.

Anyway, now we have to move on.

If you think about it, you can't help but find the answer. I moved my legs thinking that all I could do now was push straight ahead.

When the sun met the Anolds, Yveam Grand Early Evening prayed for the safety of those who headed towards Avoros in [Magic Kingdom Haos] and looked up at the sky on his room terrace.

There was a knock on the door, and when Yveum allowed him in, Aunous came in.

"Your Majesty, there is nothing unusual about it."

"Well, thank you, Aunous."

The sun said that Avoros could attack the country again on this plane, so Yveam asked Aunous to be vigilant.

"Apparently now, Akwinas' strange magic is robbing them of their movements, but I'm sure they'll make it through it."

I see. I believe in Hiro and the others. "

"Me too."

Then a blast of wind struck the terrace, and Aunous stood in front of Yveam without thinking. The wind came from above. Yveam raised his eyelids and raised his face aggressively. And he says to look at the person in his sight and murmur.

"... a, Akwinus...?

Akwinas, who was floating gently with large black wings on the left and right, looked down on the terrace.

Yveam stood still as if he were dreaming in the middle of Akwinus, who suddenly appeared at the moment. And Aunous, who stood before him, also stared silently at his presence.

Then Akwinas slowly descended onto the terrace and stowed his large black wings into his back, and then stood in front of Yveam in a majestic manner, turning his cloak over.

"... eh? Akwinus, why are you here? You must be attacking [Shaytahn Castle] now, right? Could something have happened?

Yveam asks questions, forgetting his daunting tone as king. There he can finally speak from his mouth.

I have a few thoughts.

"Thoughts? What?

"Before that... Onus, Ishka is trapped in the dungeon... No, can you bring Yuka Isimine?

Yuuka Isimine refers to Yuhana Ishigami, one of the first Japanese heroes to have been successfully kidnapped by Japanese color, who was named Ishika. In response to Akwinus' words, Aunous, who had a wrinkle between his eyebrows, asked why.

"Why did you kill that girl?

"As I said earlier. I have a little idea."

"What's the idea?

"I'm not sure who's listening here. Can you bring him in without saying anything?

"... here?

"That's right. Your Majesty needs your permission."

"... do you have an idea because it's about Akwinus?

When Akwinus pulled his chin slightly, Yveam told Akwinus to do what he said and sent Akwinus to the dungeon.

Yveam wanted to hear from him in the meantime, but he kept his mouth shut when Yuka came.

(Akwinus... are you holding something?

Originally a silent man, Yveam feels something strange and unexpected in his current state.

It has a tingling atmosphere and seems to be carrying some serious readiness.

After a while, Aunous brought Yuhua with her handcuffs to seal the magic. Yuhua looks at the red eyes of Chilari and Akwinus and cuts her gaze. Yveam could not detect the slight movement.

I've got you, Akwinus.

"Oh, thank you."

"So? What the hell are we gonna do with this girl?

"... that's it."

Akwinus stares at Yuhua's handcuffs. The handcuffs holding her turned sandy.

It was obvious that he used "Magic Eyes". Aunous, who was behind him, did not realize that Yuhua had escaped the restraint, but Yveam, who was near Akwinus, turned to Akwinus, the person who made it.

"Akwinaaw! Why did you cuff me?!

The next moment, Yuhua kicked Aunous in the back to distance herself.

"Mhh!?... what!?

Aunous also noticed for the first time that Yuhua's handcuffs had disappeared, and he rounded his eyes. And as Akwinus embraced Yveam's body to his side, Yuhua immediately came to Akwinus and began to produce water from his feet.

"Akwinus!? What are you doing!?

Yveam looks up at him with an incredible look, but Akwinus releases a cold word with no expression.

"Stay a little quiet."

The red eyes of Akwinus rushed into Yveam's body in agony and fear. I panicked inside my head without knowing why Akwinus did this.

Yveam, who was losing his decent mind, could only stare at the sinking sight in the water.

"Akwinaaw! What the hell are you doing!?

Aunous rushes in shouting, but the moment Akwinus hands forward, several swords protrude from the floor to prevent Aunous from advancing.

"Stay! Akwinaaw!"

But mercilessly, the three men disappeared into the water.

Aunous, who was left behind, murmured as he stared at the sword Akwinas had emerged without being able to grasp the status quo.

"What...? What's wrong with you...?

It sounded vain.

Yveam crawled out of the water and gently opened his closed eyelids. It is a fantastic space, with countless hourglasses floating in the air.

A man's voice echoed in Yveam's ear, confused as he did not know where he had been brought.

"Long time no see - Yveam"

Looking in the direction of the voice, there was a young man with blue eyes and an artistic beauty who had blonde hair like his own.

No, this is the first time I've seen you.

"... Avolos?

The report said that Avolos had transformed from a boy to an adult. But this is the first time I've actually seen it.

But in contrast, instinct tells us that the opponent is definitely Avolos. When I was a boy, all the power that I had accumulated in me was swelled up to the end.

The aura was so glorious that it was almost distracting at first glance, but at the same time I felt the fear of being killed in an instant if I diverted my eyes.

An unknown monster at the bottom. It is a worthy word for Avolos. Its existence now stands in front of Yveam.

"Your Majesty...."

"Ishka... don't go to help me right away... forgive me"

"No, even if I die, my heart will always be by your side."

Yuhua was kneeling before him and smiling relieved. Avolos also made her feel soft in her words. I can see that there is a definite bond between the two.

"Akwinus was great, too. Then we wait for him here as planned."

"Guy? Who are you waiting for, Avolos?

Kuku, you're the one who wants to see me.

"No way... Hyiro!?

Avolos softens his mouth slightly. It seemed affirmative.

"... why did you bring me here? No, why is Akwinus here in the first place! Answer me, Avolosu!"

I don't know what Avolos meant. That's why Yveam was brought here, but with the great trust of the Magus, I couldn't find any reason to believe that Akwinas, who had been at the forefront of everyone and fought against the enemy, was under Avolos.

"You want answers, Yveam?

…………

And when Yveam arose, he took a distance from the three men, and stared silently. The three of them are just standing there without blame for what they did.

And when Avolos put his hand to the floor, a gloriously decorated chair like a throne appeared from the floor, where he calmed his hips and quietly opened his mouth.

"First, let me tell you what you care most about. Why did Akwinus betray you with so much trust?"

Yuhana and Akwinus are kneeling on the throne. Yveam frowned sadly at the sight of Akwinus.

"Akwinus has sworn allegiance... not much more."

……

"Kuku, you don't seem to understand the meaning of that face."

"Kh...."

"Let me give you a better explanation. The opponent to whom Akwinus pledged his allegiance. That's Adams the First Demon King."

"Adams...?

Of course I know the name. Even Yveam does not know how much she has accomplished. A great person who created Magic Kingdom Haos and became the leader of many Magus tribes as the first demon king.

It seems that Akwinus was also born during her lifetime, and I have heard that he served her. Then it is no wonder you swore allegiance.

But Yveam didn't know what the connection was between it and betrayal.

Kuku, let me give you a hint.

Avolos tapped his right chest with a tongue and index finger.

"What else do we have here?

"What... is that...?

Yveam, who will be happy there. What exists on the right chest of the "Magus Clan". This is the second heart, called the Nucleus, that only the Magus have. And now, if what's on his right chest is what Yveam imagined it would be, then Avolos is now.

"Did you notice? Here is Adams' Core. Nuclear is the soul itself. And Akwinus swore allegiance to Adams according to the covenant of his soul."

"That's... that's..."

"Do you understand? I'm sure the rest is Avolos. But the rest is assimilated to Adams' soul."

"Hmm!?

"The rest are Avolos and Adams the First Demon King."

Yveam lost his words to the fact that he didn't want to admit it.

"Akwinas must have noticed the moment he met Adams, Yu, and was trapped in this McBella that Adams created. I wonder who you swore allegiance to."

"Is that who you are?

Yveam stretches his expression and turns away from Avolos, laughing invincibly, towards Akwinas.

"Akwinaaw! Wake up! It's not Adams you're following!

"Whatever you say is futile. By the covenant of the soul, Akwinus pledges to devote all of it and to keep Adams alive. The contract is absolute. You can never resist."

"Kh... Akwinaaw!

Yveam cried out his name many times, but remained silent on his knees.

"This man swore allegiance when he mourned Adams' body in [Shanjumon Cave]."

The [Shanjumon Cave] was once the home of Adams' first friend and the land of his own destiny.

"You heard from Akwinas, too. Why did Adams settle his own Nucleus there?"

Indeed, Akwinus' confession revealed the reason.

A demon king, she left her country to her successors before embarking on a journey around the world. And Akwinas discovered her dying of aging on a beach.

She finally said that she wanted to go to Shanjumon --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

With his soul in mind, Adams wanted to keep his friends and the land where he slept forever, and then the Nucleus became the guardian of [Shanjumon] without decay.

"This man realized that just before Adams died, there was a deep connection between her and himself. It's a kind of awakening."

"Awakening...?

"Kuku, let me explain something to you. Adams loved his best friend. The name of the creature... is Phoenix the Immortal Bird."

"Phoenix... that's..."

Yes, it is also a letter engraved in the name of Akwinus. Akwinas li Lacis Phoenix.

"Even though Adams killed him, Phoenix was a creature that would be resurrected as soon as he died. But even if he was resurrected in the same way, he felt the danger of running away again, and Phoenix distorted his resurrection..."

"Yu, did you distort it?

"If Adams is resurrected as an immortal bird again, he will bear great sorrow. That's why Phoenix tried to revive herself as someone who could continue to support her this time. And Phoenix... was reincarnated."

"No way...!?

"That's right. This man was the best friend of Adams the First Demon King a long time ago, the reborn Phoenix who lost his life."

"... shh...!

Yveam sweats from his forehead without completely hiding his confusion.

"You're a fool, too. Have you ever heard of this man's birth?"

"... I've heard of it. But he doesn't remember his childhood!

"Yes, I don't remember. There's no way. When born suddenly, Akwinus already had the same shape as Akwinus today. But at the cost of distorting the resurrection, the experience and memories that I developed during Phoenix were lost."

"Oh, really... Akwinus?

But Akwinus won't answer.

"Akwinas, who doesn't know anything about his name, met Adams one day. And I was given the name Akwinus Phoenix. Adams may have felt it too. This man may be Phoenix reborn."

…………

"But I'm not sure. I can't look into it. Anyway, I didn't remember anything about him. And no one knows that the Ferrous Bird is reborn as a human being. But because Akwinus somehow created the atmosphere of Phoenix, he gave it the name Akwinus, which was the name of Phoenix."

Avolos recombined his legs and went on.

"And in a few moments Adams' child will be born. That's Charles Li Lacis Red Rose. It was promised as the next demon king. And Akwinas was her caretaker. He was a cowardly and weak-minded Sharoo, but he was only open to Akwinus, who had a similar appearance. I became a family member and was allowed to name my governor, Li Laisis."

At this time, Akwinas li Laisis Phoenix was born.

"... you already understand. Why do you swear allegiance to Adams?"

…………

"You said you woke up just before she died? It was then that I first remembered. I don't know who I am."

"So you made a soul contract with her?

"She was already unconscious. I woke up, but it was already too late. That's why this man swore with his soul. Next time you're reborn, you'll have to defend yourself. Dedicate yourself to everything. Well, this guy thought his brother-in-law was reborn."

"I don't know...?

"It's Lillin Li Lacis Red Rose. It's a young" demon tribe "next to Hyiro. He was still young, but he looked just like Adams when he was young. But I'm not reborn. Because my soul was still in [Shanjumon]."

"Hmm!?

Yveam also felt convinced by Avolos' words. Certainly, even though the soul is not called to heaven, there is no way that it can be reincarnated.

"Akwinus realized that, but he was still cute. This man treated Lily as her brother and recommended that she live freely."

…………

"Well, there seems to have been a lot of things going on with Lily, but I don't care about that now. What's certain is that now Akwinus is under the rest."

"Oh no... Akwinus..."

He shook his eyes in sadness and stared at him, but he didn't respond. He just leans his face down and shuts up like he's pushing all his emotions to death.

Then Avolos stood up from his chair, and when he turned his sharp eyes to Yveam, he slightly put his arms together.

"That's why I brought you here, isn't it?

The same was true of Akwinas, but it is also a question I wanted to ask. I still know if you're going to kill me. And I don't know why I brought you here.

"Reason... nothing serious"

"... eh?

I just wanted to give you a taste of despair.

I already feel despair. That Akwinus has joined Avolos. It was the same in Kiria, but nothing is sadder than the betrayal of a fellow man.

Yveam unconsciously trembles, feeling cold sweat overflowing his body, wondering if he still has any more despair.

"Stay there for a while. It won't be long before the fun starts."

"Are you having fun?

Avolos walks in the direction of a giant hourglass that is in front of him with his back open. The chair that was sitting earlier became particulate and vanished, and Akwinus and Yuhana, who were kneeling, followed Avolos silently.

Then Avolos stopped in front of the stone pillars protruding from the floor and raised his mouth.

At that moment, the space near Yveam suddenly began to distort and the door appeared. The door opened violently as it stood.

Yveam gazed at the door with a small scream.

Avolos also looks back to see who appears from there. The person who appeared from there shook the red robe and stared at Avolos with his sparkly shiny glasses up.

Kukuku, I've been waiting for you... Hyiro Okamura.
