A small room in a certain mansion.
A statue imitating God was built, and an altar was made.
Before that, the woman who sits on her knees and prays... is Mina.
……
Three times a day.
At a fixed time, Mina was praying to God.
Agas and Leanne are dead.
Not only that, but one day, as Rayne did, they will be banished from the capital.
You'll be asked to speak up.
How did this happen?
We're supposed to be at the Brave Party.
It should have the noble mission of defeating the demon king.
And yet, what does this status quo mean?
Unfairness, inequality... Isn't that irrational?
"Tell me, God..."
Mina asks God, but the answer never returns.
Silence.
It's just that.
After the prayer, Mina slowly stood up.
I moved to the window and looked up at the sky.
The sky was cloudy and it was about to rain.
"We... what's going to happen now?"
Thanks to Monica, we managed to escape.
But that's all.
There are no shards standing in front of me, and I have no policy on what to do from now on.
Mina is in a hurry.
We must reclaim the title of Hero as soon as possible.
And I had to resume my journey to the Demon King's Crusade.
"Otherwise, I, for what..."
Mina is an orphan.
When I had the heart of things, I had no parents, and was taken in and raised by the church.
I heard that my parents were attacked and killed by a monster.
That may be why it is so important.
Mina began to dream of a peaceful world without monsters, and offered a prayer to God.
There's not much I can do.
But I can pray.
Believe that this prayer will reach God someday....
I prayed every day, every day.
When he realized it, he had the strongest magic power in the church.
Making a prayer is similar to training magic power.....
Mina, who prayed harder than anyone else, gained strength without even trying.
And Mina's life has reached a turning point.
The church told me to train to be one of the brave.
Keep praying in the church.
Or join a heroic party and embark on a journey to save the world.
Although Mina wonders which one to choose.....
Eventually, as the church told me, I decided to become a member of the Brave Party.
Since then, training has been the daily routine.
There is not a minute of free time.
Almost all the time was devoted to training, except for meals and sleep.
I once thought it was hard.
However, the stronger I became, the more I became expected by the church.
It's like a child who has been praised by his parents is going even harder.
For Mina, who has no parents, the church is like that.
Without crying, Mina continued her painful training....
And I was able to acquire such strength that I was said to be the strongest in the history of the church.
I was able to join the Brave Party.
It's just... that thought was distorted along the way.
“Support Arios with my power, peace to the world… and prosperity to the Church”
At a young age, I only wished for world peace.
But receiving the intervention of the church distorted the pure thought.
If anyone joins the Brave Party, the church will rise even further.
You will get great honor and wealth.
The clichés who think of such things, face to face, for the sake of world peace.....
I made Mina into a Token of my own convenience.
Mina didn't notice it, she didn't realize it, she just kept coming forward.
Without looking back, without looking left or right... as a church official, I served as a brave party.
Feeling guilty, I got excited.
However, the result was a mistake.
"What am I going to do...?"
I have travelled with the mission given to the church, but now I have no connection with the church.
I have to think and act on my own.....
I have no idea what to do about Mina, who has never done such a thing.
It is the same as a lost child.
I can only panic, panic and panic.
You can't get the right answer out of sight.
It became the word of the church.....
It was the result of abandoning my own thoughts.
"I... I..."
"Excuse me."
Suddenly, the door opened and Monica appeared.
Mina forced her disturbed mind back to calm and looked back with a careless look.
Monica-san, what's the matter?
"There's something I need to tell Arios-sama and Mina... where is Arios-sama?"
"I heard you were going to take a little walk... what?"
"Right, let's talk to Mina first." Actually..... "
Monica looked serious.....
But in my heart I say, laughing.
It looks like a new hero has been appointed instead of Arios-sama.
