A little reluctant, 'transfer' to the terrace in Mr. Ariane's room. It would be very awkward when something happened if I went directly into the room, and if I went out into the hallway, someone else might see me.

And most importantly, the Demon King will visit normally! Says.

So I knocked on the window. Knock on the window. It's a little new.

Then there was a bulky noise in the room, and soon the window was unlocked and Mr. Ariane came out.

"Good evening. I'll get in the way."

I'll give you the sweets I tried to bring once as I greeted you.

"... today, you're alone"

"He left it.... don't look so sorry, it hurts"

I joked and said, Mr. Ariane went from a slightly unfortunate face to a surprised face, and then made me laugh a little pranky.

... That's a little Ariane, you've changed the vibe.

Mr. Ariane was polite enough to serve me tea. Thank you. Mmm, delicious.

"I'm sorry to see you at this hour."

"No. I don't mind. I just wanted to see you. … just tomorrow we are officially taking over the position of High Priest in the Temple"

Oh, so you're saying that the temple can now be moved by Mr. Ariane.

"So I'm going to fix the temple in earnest from now on"

Mr Ariane said so, leaving his seat a little, and brought a few books. It's just a book with no title on it.

"I took a look at the Temple's forbidden bookcase. Now we know that the temple was born."

Cheng Cheng. Are there no titles because these are forbidden books?

Or maybe because I erased the title, it still remains a forbidden book.

"And I, I thought.... that there is no goddess in this world anymore."

I guess that line is close to a ban as a temple official. Mr. Ariane's voice trembled a little.

"The goddess has created a temple. That's because we need someone to teach the goddess her teachings in this world. But that's what a goddess can be made of, isn't it? So... did the goddess make a temple as a proxy for the goddess and go to another world?... Yes, I think so."

... I can't believe it's a book.

"Yet we are proud to have the blessing of a goddess... and now we know why you created the culprit who spills magic from this world. It was to bring us human beings together."

... Let's just smile quietly and have a cup of tea until we can sort our heads out.

Uh, wait a minute.

I don't know why the goddess is a book, but I get it.

I guess the goddess decided to leave the world to humans, as Ms Ariane put it. Instead of you continuing to govern.

So, maybe I became a book myself. You said the world was over-capacity if you didn't divide it into books. Even from here, I can say that the goddess has become a book herself, I think.

So I think Mr. Ariane's predictions are right for the price. The goddess, of her own free will, withdrew herself from the rule of this world. I can see that.

The problem is this way.

The culprit... was made by the Demon King, it seems. Yeah. I'm not sure where you're spilling magic, but anyway, the Demon King created the culprit.

I don't know where the intention is, but for now, the culprit is the Made By Demon King. Yeah.

This is the only thing I know so far, but the relationship between the goddess and the demon king is coming a little clear again, maybe.

All right.

"So we're going to try this world, which was deposited with the goddess, again. We don't rely on the help of the brave men, we do it ourselves."

"That intent or okay. So, how does the temple work now?

"First, I'm going to sell what was in the former High Priest's room to make money."

... Yeah, well, I'm not stopping you.

"In the sense of giving back the money people have been giving me.... because in recent generations, the High Priest seemed to have used the donation for his own personal gain. Then we will train the priests of the temple. So that our power can erase the culprits."

Hmm. Then I wonder if the temple will do the valiant work from now on.

"... but I have no idea about the braves. I know that the temple will perform a summoning ritual, but why do you call so many brave men, how do you find them... did you know the former High Priest?"

Don't you know this one? Yeah, the High Priest didn't know that much either. Perhaps the fine meaning of summoning a brave man was forgotten a long time ago.

Or did someone intentionally erase it somewhere?

I don't know how many generations ago, but at least since the N 's, the High Priest seems to have only seen the brave, or the otherworldly, as a source of magic.

Even now, the idea of capturing and enslaving otherworlds remains somewhere like that.

... I don't need Ariane to know about this area.

More, I think it would be nice to know after Mr. Ariane is free.

"What, I don't care if you don't know. I just need you to promise me you won't do anything I don't know if I can take it back."

What I don't know is that there will never be a senseless summons for brave men from now on, nor will there ever be a return on its own.

"Right. I have to make sure I'm not mistaken anymore. On top of that, I will do what I can as a temple. Carefully, but hurry as much as you can."

Mr. Ariane smiled powerfully and took one of the treats I brought.

"That's the thing. Do you know anything about the country southwest of Aezor?

Okay. It's my turn from here.

"Yeah. You're talking about a revolution, right? I know. The noblemen of Wang Du have asked me to send a temple knight."

Oh, you've got a lot to talk about.

"Right.... Sometimes, the temple doesn't dispatch brave men?

"Uh... it seems that one of the brave men is actively participating in the plan, and that one has already asked the other brave men to send him..."

Nice, Fukuyama! Talk fast! Too soon!

Now we know that the brave... maybe almost all the brave men will participate in the plan of raids on the Mediterranean cities.

I already know the number of brave men is the number of lives (physical), so I can capture them and then answer them together, and this one might be a relief.

No, Fukuyama does a really good job at times like this. Yeah.

"Right. Let the brave do as they please. I won't say anything from the rest."

By the way, I was going to say something if I told you not to dispatch me. Naturally.

"Really? Then it's good.... As a temple, I wanted to refrain from moving because I wasn't sure what was going on this time. Therefore, it is gratifying to note that although we do not dispatch Temple Knights, the brave men participate freely and willingly.... although it seems cowardly"

Yeah. Thanks to the temple, the brave... I don't know what other brave men but Fukuyama will do, but for now I can do it of my own free will, and nobility is greatly satisfied to have a brave man who is a mighty power of war.

Hmm, I hope you're all happy!

"Isn't that good as a temple? Sometimes if a brave man wants to move, he can stop it."

I guess I feel like I'm using a brave man, and when he said that to Ariane, who somehow seems to feel the blame of his conscience, he laughed a little and drank his tea, saying that made him feel better.

"That's strange. I, I should have been hostile to you. You're the one who gives me the most words I want right now."

"That would be an honor."

Mr. Ariane is in trouble, too. I poured tea out of the pot into Ariane's cup, which was emptied with labor in mind.

Mr. Ariane thanked him lightly for it, then put his mouth on the cup and gave him a slightly crucified look before cutting it out like this.

"... you know, I think it's rude... I need to ask you something"

As far as I can tell, please! Because I think it's time to skin the demon king!

Oh, my God, if I suck, now Mr. Ariane is better at talking about goddesses and demon kings, and so on.

No, if I had to, I'd run away with "I don't know about my predecessors because I'm a demon king, but I'm a second generation demon king"!

"The Demon King... do you like that one?

... It was some kind of anticipation diagonal!

"Of course.... probably not what your Lord thinks you like"

... I know that Ariane's contents are surprisingly passionate. Maybe I can say with certainty that what Mr. Ariane intends is not what I intend.

"... So what's the Devil King holding on that one?

"Respect and friendship."

When I said it, Mr. Ariane gave me a surprising, laughing, crying, complex look.

"You really think you can stay put?

Just listen to the word. It's violent to me, but coupled with the expression, I don't feel the intent of the attack.

"Someday there will be an end. Those guys are the best. I don't know about you as a lover, but at least, as a friend, you're the best people, and you're the respectable ones. They're such funny people, not so far away, they'll have lovers. I'd rather not be there."

That's the end point. Not everyone can believe it.

"You know the end is coming, but you're with me?

"Because I believe you."

Not everyone can believe it, but I can't believe it.

I believe.

I take it upon myself that they have a friendship with me.

And I still take the liberty of believing that I have friendship with them as well or more than they do.

Shaking his head loose, Mr. Ariane stared at me.

"He... he also said that what's between him and you is friendship and respect."

Mr. Ariane dried the contents of the cup in his hands all at once.

"Really, terrible people.... Hey Demon King, can we be friends?

... I don't know how that happened in Mr. Ariane's head.

And the Demon King is entrusting the temple to Mr. Ariane on the assumption that if the temple moves in the wrong direction, he will kill them all.

Mr. Ariane, however, made me think that, most sincerely, he was trying to rebuild the temple, and then... I don't know, uh... he deserved to be trusted.

I wonder if we can clean up the temples and kill them all now.

Even my friends shouldn't kill each other, and I know that Ariane hasn't brought this up with her.

When I held the hand offered, Mr. Ariane's face shone.

"Keep it up, thank you"

Holding my hand, Mr. Ariane laughed with a neat face somewhere.

So, return.

I'm home.

I'm home.

They were all already asleep or quiet. Let's go back softly. Softly.

I thanked the needle students who came out of the shadows with gestures and then I decided to do a "good night" with gestures and go to bed with each other.

... needle raw, I didn't even hate the corner water cooling and it followed me, but I'm sorry I didn't turn up. No, should I say I'm glad it wasn't there?

When I walked into the room, seniors were already asleep. Mmm, brilliant!

... make a bunk on the couch next door and I'll sleep there! No, 'cause, uh, why don't you accidentally let a sleeping senior pillow you?... could die, right? No matter how many corrections you don't have... if you get strangled, it's still dangerous. See, not just the torso, but the neck?

Yes, good morning. When I woke up, there was a senior next door. What a wonder.

Softly, I'll get out of the couch so I don't wake you up, and I'll start my breakfast schedule.

It's dinner today. For some reason, there's a cooker!

This kitchen, created by senior skills, is also equipped with a cooker! I don't have any hands to not use!

... Look, the rice cooked in the earthen pot is delicious, but sometimes I want to eat the rice cooked in the cooker... I wonder why.

I was making breakfast and Kaiya woke up.

"Ah, good morning. How was last night?

"Yeah, well, I know the culprit was made by the Demon King."

By the way, the culprit, he's still floating on the table. Strange because that's what it looks like if you think it's an avant-garde object.

"It... doesn't deepen the mystery?

"Hey."

Kaiya should also be losing his strength because of the culprit, but he's still getting used to it a lot, doesn't even look particularly spicy.

"And then we're friends, with Mr. Ariane"

"Is Maido there? Are you friends?"

What, you mean bad, dude?

"Oh, how did that happen?

"I don't."

Probably the quickest way to sort something out.

... I'm sure Suzumoto didn't want to go because he wasn't concerned about the hot water cooling.

He is an honest man.
