It was before dawn that we reached the Great Wall Gigas line.
I had to travel in less than half a day alone, and on the tart's feet I needed to take a break, and it took me nearly three times as long.
It was only in the morning that she climbed the heavenly high walls carrying her exhausted and returned safely to the old town of Lehum.
She was then entrusted with herbs and monster materials full of backpacks, and a small amount of Prison Beryl, with a slightly too much withdrawal reward of 23000 Gard.
"Exactly, I'm already tired of you... And then you quit on your own, and I'm going to bed..."
"You're no less of a worker than Sister Cookles, too. Thank you for your help."
It was not until noon that contact with Mr. Holt, the priest of the Cathedral of Lehm, was made safe.
That high tempo came back tired, but it was realized in exchange for a tart that left the antiques store without a single night's sleep falling into bed.
"Lord Electrum, this is my sister's escort. Thank you for your help. I've been a good person for a long time now, and I think that's my sister's morality."
"Yes, that means you'll take over instead."
Later, my former adventurer Tart's right arm arranged it for me.
"Hey, that's the thing. Come on in, Mr. Holt's looking forward to seeing you."
I was also a little more concerned about his detailed qualities than I had heard about Tart's old stories.
Barney and I seem familiar, and is it possible that he was born in the old town?
● ◎ (ΦωΦ) ◎
That usual dusty attic had turned into a dust-free space when I visited it again.
Has Mr Holt since started using this place for intimate meetings?
Eight chairs and a table line the center of the room.
"Welcome, Lord Electrum, I look forward to seeing you."
"Huff...... you're a weirdo too. I've lived a long time, but you've never been liked by a priest class before."
When Tart's right arm led me here, he went home saying that we would all celebrate his returning sister.
Mr. Holt and I are the only ones here now.
"I believe there are only a few people in the world who can be trusted. One of them just happened to be Lord Electrum of Cats, that's all."
"That's an odd encounter. I showed up here this time after trusting you, too. You would have no problem (...), I thought so"
The table was a round table, and the eight chairs were all rustic in the same shape.
That would be his character. You may be a priest, but you don't want to make yourself sacred.
"It's an honor. But there's something going on that you can't even see."
The old priest laughs softly at me.
Yes. I have trouble living long enough to have all the joke-like experiences that I tell this story to those who, more importantly, are in the priesthood.
"Then I'll ask you. Demon King artifacts, do you have any idea where they are?
"Well, that's sudden again. Find out about your artifacts and you might be able to grasp some location. But why...?
The Demon King disappeared from the world in human territory, at its eastern end.
It is because of this that the relics of the Demon King are scattered throughout the human world.
"One more question before that. Don't you know a man named Edward Pattington? perhaps researchers, or should have worked close to it"
"Edward...... um, sounds familiar somewhere but I can't remember. Not a very rare name, possibly misremembered..."
Unfortunately, it was empty.
Well, that's fine, because I came to warn you.
"But if it is the relic of the Demon King, it is the jurisdiction of the diocese. As soon as we find the location, if you can drink the terms of exchange, we would like to actively trade."
"You're the same sagginess. I don't mind this one either, because it's just a bunch of unconditional goodwill."
"Best of all. That's something I can't say outside, and it seems like it's my job to arrange things beautifully. Mm, what happened?
I thought a little there.
Demon King artifacts scattered throughout human territory. Likewise, the results of a study called Patia were produced in human territory.
Isn't this situation very good?
"It is the relic of that demon king… if possible, you may want to hurry and gather it as quickly as possible"
"Well, why is that?
"It's a survey. I believe it will lead us, the Devil Nation, to human coexistence."
"To be honest, it's surprising that words like that come out of your mouth..."
That was beautiful.
coexistence, I know better than anyone that I cannot do it.
That is why I cannot deny that pathetic albino man, Nyx.
If one of them destroys one of them, it is certainly there that this battle, which will be equal forever, will end.
"Hugh... sometimes I thought you needed something beautiful"
Suppose Mr. Edward had a sponsor.
Patia showed the demon king's artifacts, the equipment only the demon king could wear, properly equipped.
What if Patia was a prototype and there was a beta type next to it?
"Sure. This is how humans and cats face each other, and when you say coexistence is impossible, nothing will progress."
Even if development had been interrupted by Mr. Edward's escape, there is no doubt that it would soon come about.
Then the enemy will soon realize the value of the demon king's artifacts.
"I'll pay the price any way I can, so hurry up and get some information on the scattered artifacts."
"Then give me an explanation, Lord Electrum. I don't care if it's just the part where you can talk."
I intend to do that from the beginning. I want to hide Patia from him, too.
What happens if someone finds out that you have a human daughter with proper possession of the demon king's artifacts?
Yeah. The answer is one. Fearing the return of the Demon King, we will turn not only the kingdom of man but all the demon armies against our enemies.
"I have met a man who is the scar of the earth. That's Edward Pattington. But not long after he met me, he died. Because the Raiders took his life."
I took out the book of Nakoto and showed it to Priest Holt.
Patia's presence is concealed through, in order to make this book of Nakoto the star of theatre.
"Oh my God, I was helped by the power of that book too, but did you have that history..."
"Yes, but the problem is those who were behind that raider. They may still be studying creating demon kings."
That was something that many lunatics had come up with over the course of their long history.
I want to make the power of absolute existence my own.
Those with that arrogant and crazy desire sooner or later disappeared from history, without making their dreams come true.
"How silly...... If that's true, um... But do you have proof?
"Yes, I am the proof itself. Look at me, the God of man."
For this time I hid my wrist in my robe.
The array was rewarded by this Mr Holt.
If we had to hide it, we'd have just met face to face, and they'd have stuck us in about the bracelet.
It still seems like an inexplicable dream.
What a joke, because the Devil King's bracelet chose my arm to replace Patia.
I offer him my wrist before him after a reclining bow, exposing my bracelet from my robe.
That would be the case, too, if you hadn't chosen this as your reward, this wouldn't have happened.
Priest Holt snorted at his face with amazement.
"Oh, God, for Christ's sake..."
"I'm sure this book of Nakoto was a tool or something to produce a successor to the Demon King. I seem to have been chosen, in her artifacts."
It's all a lie. The real research result is Patia.
But no one should know the truth.
So I decided to deceive the successor of the Demon King, like that fool, Agarez, the Orthodox Demon General.
I hope that other artifacts will recognize me, if I may.
I could be a false demon king for Patia's smile.

He has promised me his cooperation.
Priest Holt must have understood that if the balance of the world was broken, this country, which is at the forefront, could become scorched earth.
Then they asked me about Prince Salazar's continuation.
Two more daughters-in-law, but another daughter-in-law disappeared from the rear palace. Tell a story I don't even want to know.
He said the crowning ceremony would take place six months later than now, and that he would be the lowest king ever.

"Oh Lord Electrum, it's been a long time. Did you remember, it's me, it's the Knight's xyxy!
"You can't forget your name if you want to, Xyreel. It was a terrible breakup then, but it was good to see you again. I must thank him for his kindness."
Maybe he was hearing something from the tart.
Mr Holt called for a xyreel on his exit.
"Oh... please, forget about that night... After that, when I got back to the church in the woods, the church bureau caught me and told me it was Halench, and it was already hard..."
"Because it was the ultimate choice: women's clothing or naked. Don't ask me which one you chose."
Tart's asleep, and the men will be busy at her return party.
Then it was very helpful for the advent of Lehm's guide named Xyreel.
Come on now, bread yeast and soldering agent. Then shall we go find out who Mr. Edward is?
"Hey, wait a minute, you can't dress like a woman!!
"It's a joke. Your precious knight outfit is still being utilized by her. With your devotion, I could hide her identity from you. Be proud."
"Her Royal Highness is wearing my clothes!? Kuh, kuh...!
Xyreel is a serious one that seems to be an exemplary knight.
He seemed honored and disrespectful. As things stand, he held his head and kept stuffing for a while.

By then, Patia...
"Neko, no, no, no, no!
They were playing in front of the shining trees in the square with the kids inside.
If he was moving when he turned around, he lost, and that's the game Nekotan fell in.
"I saw it. Hey, Rabu, the tail was awesome!
"It's a lie, it's not amazing. Yikes!?
"It was amazing! Yes, Love. Besides, Patia and... Connectors, eh, so hehe..."
"Don't laugh the creepy way!
"'Cause I'm so happy, you know?"
"Or did it really work? Patia just wants to touch me, my meatballs..."
Yeah, well, I'm not sure if Lovelay boy's tail really moved from me who wasn't at the scene.
Well, authenticity didn't really matter.
"Yeah, that was awesome. Love's tail, pretending! It's gonna be awesome, even if you hang in there. Ha... it was cute -..."
"I'm not cute! This tail is so cool, man pride, the baron said it too!
No. I wonder if I will ever truly take His Excellency's word for it.
That guy, it's your job, so it's less about telling the truth.
I'm also a little unsure that tails are a man's pride.
"Come on, Lord Love, hold hands with the girl, what are you rather unhappy with?"
"I'm only dissatisfied! Ha... That's all right."
Lovelay boy is an honest kid. I'm four older brothers from Patia's point of view. Don't run away. You held hands with my kid.
Um, it's better than Love's garlic cucumber and cat's - it's scary, but that's where it's good! I want to touch you again.
and you were happy enough to tell me later.
"So hehe... Love properly, and a mix of connections... Ha, I don't care anymore..."
If you suggested this play to want to hold hands with the Lovelay boy, is our daughter surprisingly a schemer?
"Come on, Lord Patty, don't move. Be on your side!
"Oh, bunnies, I was messing with you."
"Don't forget. Whoa! Totally?!
By the way, Uncle Barney, who has always stood on one leg, said he fell and was caught by a ghost then.
When the Lovelay boy and Bernie held hands, the knight Ars later told me with pleasure that he seemed to get along and Patia was jealous.
Whatever the past, Patia is now surrounded by a smile. That fact alone was enough for me.
