"I think you call someone like Lyle a prodigy. He showed talent for everything from a young age, and he was a man who did several times as well as he studied and fought."

"So I wonder what. That super problem kid Ceres... he had a collar on him and he was well managed."

As for Ain, it's not something I didn't think about. That Katima and Olivia had a sister or brother.

But the men of the castle did not utter it alone, nor did all the royal families.

That's why he died early in stillbirths and accidents, albeit by evil guess? I used to think.

That's what happened, and I haven't been able to ask you about it before.

"But it was a good combination. Maybe there was something only" geniuses "could tell each other, wasn't there?

"Uh... there was definitely a verse like that. The usual interaction was just really stupid."

"Well, you know... you didn't even hear that from me, but why didn't anyone tell me about it?

The new question then is, why didn't you tell yourself that?

I don't have much to claim from myself, but Ein is in the position of Prince Wang. Even so, I don't feel good that they were hiding such important facts.

"Well, wait, wait, Ain't. I know you have something to think about, but? I have quite a troublesome situation... I'm going to tell you, drink this first and calm down"

Kaisel hands cold tea in a wooden cup. Ein took it and drank the tea inside in one breath.

"He was full of talent, and he had a life in the castle... no. My life in Ishtarika must have been too cramped."

"Ishtarika cramps......? Does that mean maybe you crossed over to that continent?

"No, it's not. Even if it's further away, there's no way to prove it."

Ain't got all the doubts on Ain's mind about explaining why he's not getting the guidelines. Then Majorica opens her mouth and adds information.

"Your Highness, there are stone ruins in the middle of Ishtal on the continent, I don't know when it was there."

"Ruins?" But they're everywhere.

"Yes, you're right, there are indeed ruins everywhere. But the ruins... if there's love in this world, it's a place you should never go in."

"The name is" The Dungeon of Divine Hidden. "Scholars call it the narrow space of the world."

I'm interested in the word dungeon, but is divine concealment exactly what that word means? There is also something attracted to the word narrow in the world.

"Hidden. When you get in there, it's not like they're taking you somewhere else..."

"No way, Your Highness. I don't know where you're going, 'cause nobody's coming back.... not a demon turned into a ruin, nor is there another space around it. That's why it's a" hidden dungeon. "

"... you know, this isn't what it is either. That Master Lyle and Mr. Ceres, you mean, headed there?

Going far means that it's not a continent with a heim. I mean, we were just talking about saying that we were really headed for a different world.

"Correct, Your Highness.... That's why they're not here. That's what I'm saying."

"You got it, Ain't. Ceres' felony is that he took Lyle there. And Lyle's great sin is that he abandoned his royal duty and headed there. That's what I mean."

I can understand both sins.

Indeed, what the First Prince did is also a great sin. Although royal, and first prince.

Because even though we know where it is, we took a trip to the land.

"Why would you do that..."

How did Lyle do that? I can't figure out why.

What he did, which means he dumped Ishtarika, because it includes the Silvers.

"It's Lyle's cliché, but 'I was born in the wrong place' used to say. As I said earlier, I guess it was cramped. That's not only life in the castle, but life in this world."

"That's why I can't believe I threw everything away...!

"Right. There's nothing to be blamed for, it could be stupid behavior. Still, Lyle wanted it, so he disappeared with Ceres. That's all."

That's why I thought. The line that you were born in the wrong place might have included such a meaning.

"Genius may be lonely. Even Ceres, the only one who was really open to me was Master Lyle. He was quite a problem, listening only to Lyle's orders in the castle."

"So in the end Lyle invited Ceres. So Ceres honestly accepted it and headed right to the ruins. That's what the letter said."

It's unscrupulous, this was Ain's best idea.

What Lyle did would really disqualify him as a royalty and would be a felony as explained.

"But then why? Why didn't you tell me about this..."

"I know exactly how your Highness feels. But it's hard."

"Oh. Whatever. Your Majesty's scared, I was wondering if Ein would do the same thing as Lyle."

There's no way I would! There's no way I'm leaving Olivia to go anywhere, plus Krone or Chris. And until I left my precious family, I never thought I'd want to go anywhere.

"Whoa Ain. You look dissatisfied."

"Well of course...... Why didn't you believe me?"

"Well, that's a hard story. I have all sorts of thoughts… at the end of the First Prince, at the end of that escort. You know how difficult it is to talk about when it comes to this, right? If Ain't got the fear that Ain't gone, it's getting harder to tell."

"Luckily, Mr. Lyle didn't have the revelation or anything. So I laid down a warrant for the men of the castle at the time, and that was it."

I understand the logic. It can be difficult if you can honestly convince me.

It feels like I have a lump in my heart somehow. That is not dissatisfaction with the Silverados, but rather with the First Prince Lyle.

"That's what happened. Is this the only way to convince you?

"Oh, I like that. All I can tell you is that you don't care. You've done a fine job at school, you've done your duty as Prince Wang, and you've carried out dangerous investigative activities. I don't want to complain about old buddies, but Ain't doing hundreds of times better."

I wish I hadn't asked, I'm glad I could. I can't stop thinking about it, but I have been able to reaffirm one thing.

That means Kaisel is a fine instructor. It was a sarcastic line, but Ain't got a lot of chest.

"Hey, Your Highness. If he finds out I told him this, he'll probably behead us. physically, of course."

"So please Ein, I can't believe we told you... don't tell me, okay?

"... I promise you as Prince Wang. I'll just stop talking about it here. I'm going to forget what you two told me."

Even as Ein, I'm not going to bother telling anyone about this. Besides, I'm not even willing to imitate selling them, so I wouldn't have anything to say outside of this place, as I said.

"Tell me that and one more thing, Your Highness.... you're not interested in the ruins after listening to me now, are you?

When Majorica looks worried, Ain smiles and replies.

"Of course you've decided to be interested. But..."

Majorica, who for a moment became a desperate expression, but realizes Ain't never finished his words.

"So, but...?

"Definitely not a place to go. I'm just interested in what that means, so don't worry."

I don't care what happens. I had such a hard will.

Chris to Olivia and Krone. Besides, I don't want to leave my family in the castle, it was that single-minded determination.

"And I love Ishtarika."

While I tell you this story, Majorica and Kaisel were horrified by Ain's words. It was a contradictory mood, but Ein's feelings were deeply reassured that it was in Ishtarika.

"Line up!

The sound of busy treading snow surrounds us, and Lloyd's decree aligns us all.

"Classes! Report the situation!

When Ain was in conversation with the Majoricas, the Lloyds had arrived in the former demonic kingdom.

This is an expedition for the second investigation, acting separately from Ein.

I followed a similar route to the other day and came back to the land earlier than the other day.

"Dill, you've lived your past experience."

"Yeah, right. Everyone seems used to the journey."

"It's just this achievement for once. You should still appeal to Your Majesty..."

When I return to Wang Du, I propose to train in the snow at all costs.

We shall also summarize this outcome later as a report.

"Master Lloyd! Second squad, no problem!

"Three squads too!

"Four squads, but nothing unusual!

One report after another comes to Lloyd. I am particularly pleased that I was able to march without any problems.

Although there is a fact that the weather has been blessed compared to the previous one, it still does not turn out to be a bad achievement.

"Mm-hmm. Then move on from the squad that finished reporting to the predetermined task!

Ha! The knight's reply echoes all around.

If you look at the look on the knights' faces, they look less tired than last time. It would mean that they have also experienced significant growth in this challenging environment.

"But compared to last time, you don't look welcome."

After Ein said, "I'm home." I remember remembering this strange feeling, as if this old demon realm had breathed back, as if I felt the color in the wind that was blowing as well.

But this time, I don't feel like I'm surrounded by the same kind of lonely air when I say the word "right now".

"... well still, isn't it better than at first sight"

"Father? What's wrong?

"Hmm? Yeah, I was just looking at the streets."

"Was it Master Left"

Dill, who lost interest, listens to the squad leader's report.

I talked to him beforehand, but he decided not to head over to the living armor mansion.

Ain't no problem without Ain. I'm sure there's such a side to it, but it's also true that the Lloyds don't know each other.

It's best to avoid unnecessary troubles, and if you don't get your hands on them, there's nothing to do from here either.

"Father. That concludes the squad leader's report. I, the deputy captain, approve this."

Dill is deputy captain of the investigation team in this investigation. Of course, the captain is served by Lloyd, and when it comes to the chain of command, Dill will be second from the top.

"Oh, okay. There seems to be no abnormality, above all."

"Right. I will now move on to command of the crime scene."

"Oh, hold on tight"

Running away Dill's hindsight looks so reliable.

Thinking back to when Ain and I met face-to-face, Dill was still a student at school. That has now grown enough to take command and is firmly on escort duty.

I also experienced an expedition to Euro, and I can see in sight that I peeled away.

"Well... if you do, your dreams might come true, too, huh? Dill."

My son, who spoke of defeating himself as a dream.

Naturally, as Lloyd, I'm not going to lose, and I'm not willing to give in. Whether that time comes while I work as a knight always excites me when I think about it.

"Even if you think so, there's one more thing for me. There's something exciting about that."

Looking back, I turn to the vicinity of Demon King Castle.

Is it around there? To think about it that way, there are a number of old mansions lined up, one of which is Marco's Mansion in Living Armor.

Lloyd smiles with a niggle, eyeing the direction Ain told me.

"I'd like to cross swords for once. That skill that criticized this me as' no different from what I'm not there '. I want to feel it in this body."

The light abduction of Ain left Lloyd with the greatest humiliation of his life.

And from that Marco, the rating of an escort who doesn't change whether he's there or not. The words of those who are stronger than themselves, which I haven't felt in a long time.

But I guess that's true.

I used to manage with one of my hands and feet, and I used to think so.

It's not what I think right now. You may not let me compete for a single machete, that was Lloyd's idea at the moment.

"Hey, Lord Marco. Are you hearing this my voice too? … sooner or later, I'd like to exchange my sword with you."

The usual Marco would have received that voice as Lloyd expected.

—— but today he was different.... the curse from hundreds of years ago, the curse of the "beast", which has continued to erode my body in a situation where I could not do more than keep myself.

"Ku.................. Huh!

Marco's mansion where Ain was brought.

Dim, damp basement, he was stuck there, trying to keep himself using a lot of medication.

"The great one, the great one, the great one...... Huh! Ahhhhhhhhhhhhh!

A strong body in the top of the demons. Forced to hurt it over and over again, trying to keep himself by pain.

With intense pain, I feel that I am still "myself".

Numerous dramatic drugs, not left in modern times.

Forced to paint it all over your body and resist the curse as you melt your body.

"Ha ha... beast... beast! Hundreds of years later, you can't even take this one knight!

My whole body, where severe pain runs, was forced to royalize me.

It's okay. I'm still keeping my consciousness strong.... Sometimes a mouth that opens on its own honors the Red Fox, but I'm still Marco. I can feel it.

"Not yet...... not yet"

One man I was forced to bring in the other day. It reminds me of Ain, Marco.

When I think of that Ain, I'm still not allowed to fall for this. They're just beasts! That's what inspires me.

"Beautiful, beautiful, beautiful..."

I don't count how many times it will be anymore.

For the past week, I've been fighting the curse with my partner, this pain.

"Ugh, what's beautiful is... what's really beautiful is... Master Archet. Master Archet's will is more beautiful than anything else...!

Cursed objects have really bad character.

Because when you think about the Demon Kings, they are designed to increase their power.

"Ahhh... ahhh..."

Though it resists, this body has been eroded for hundreds of years. Spiritually, it's already blurry, and perhaps the limits that can no longer be tolerated are close.

"Ah... this son of a bitch...! My mission isn't over yet... Marco, you can still go. You can go......!

A number of theatrical drugs that have already been turned into stabilizers. But that's also already running out of stockpiles, which makes me anxious to think if it doesn't go away, but first we need to be able to stand the present.

Apply it to your body again at all costs and increase the pain strongly.

"Ha... ha... I could stand it today, today... well done Marco. --... thanks to that wonderful one too"

I did make it through today. But... the day when Marco will be cursed, that day will surely come.
