After a stormy night...

In the morning, there was peace in the city.

Suddenly, a disaster struck the city.

A lot of people got hurt.

A lot of people lost their homes.

Still, people's hearts aren't broken.

I'm sad about someone who's gone, but I move on.

To stop, because no one wants it.

And...

Three days later.

Though there are still claw marks of disaster, at last, the city regained its calm.

At that time they call me to the Knights and head to the Horizon Branch.

"Hello"

"Konnya!

"Whoa, you've come a lot, both of you"

Stella greeted me with a smile as I stepped into the branch.

The other knights smile and welcome me.

No?

Rather than smile...... coveted eyes?

Somehow, my eyes are glittering.

"Hey, what...? Did I do something?

"You did, didn't you? He was a useful actor in uncovering the Lord's evil deeds and, suddenly, crusaded the demons who appeared in the city. Suitable to call yourself a hero. We all admire Rayne."

"When they say that, it's annoying..."

"Everyone here was at the scene. I had seen Rayne work. Don't admire it, it's harder."

"Ooh, Rain, popular?

"Until Canade"

"When Rain is popular, I'm glad too. Ha ha."

"Please don't. It's not a hero or anything like that."

I'm just a beast taster.

I'm not a hero.

Besides, it is much due to the power of the Knights that we have uncovered the Lord's evil deeds.

The only reason I defeated the Demons was because I had company.

If I were alone, I wouldn't have done anything and would have just gone right and left.

I'll tell you that,

"Sometimes, you hate past modesty, don't you?

"I think Rain deserves more praise."

They laughed and listened to my appeal.

Really, it's the result of everyone being there...

It seems useless to tell these two any more, so I decided to move on to the next story first.

"By the way, what's going on today?

"Mm-hmm. I thought I'd tell you about the treatment of the Lords and the future of the city. Wouldn't that bother you?

"That's for sure"

"I was going to tell you that story... are the Rains just the two of us?

"Everyone else has a lot going on. Today it's just Canade."

Tania has Nina taken care of.

Although the strongest species, Nina is still a child.

Besides, I've been caught by lords, and I need a follow-up.

So I asked Tania about the area.

Sola and Luna use magic to help rebuild the city.

It seems that standing around with the Demons all over the city saw Sola and Luna fight while spreading their Spirit Feathers.

Though I've found out that you two are spirits...

To my astonishment, I was thanked for not being repelled, but for saving the city on the contrary.

They also have two personalities and get along with the city people...

So we're magically helping rebuild by saying we want to do something for the people of the city.

"Well, where did I tell you from...... right. It must be about us, the Knights, first. All knights connected to the lord, arrested. Once again, the investigation revealed a lot of evidence of corruption. There were also instructions from the headquarters of the Wang capital, starting with the captain, all the knights who were corrupt were dismissed, and held captive. Later, you will be formally disposed of, brought to justice. And… Next, what about the treatment of the lords?"

"Please."

"First of all, about the lord... of course, but he was to be imprisoned. Since then, I've been searching the museum again, and there's been evidence of wrongdoing. In addition, he refused to audit our Knights and went on to exercise his strength. No longer can we escape the word. He will later be transferred to the King's Capital for trial."

"Evil has perished!

It's not like he died, is it?

"That nasty man...... yes, what happened to the lord's son?

"Edgar is now being treated in a healing home"

To Canade's question, Stella looked like she had a headache.

Should I say bad luck is strong?

Edgar survived without falling down with the Demons.

However, because of the demonized recoil, my body was so mellow that I couldn't walk properly on my own.

I'm talking about being treated, but they're hard to fully heal.

Nevertheless, there is no such thing as room for sympathy.

I deserve everything.

To be honest, all I can think of is the idea of a different kind of thing.

"Fuck off, man!

He thought the same thing about Canade.

Seeing Nina, who had been imprisoned, though not directly damaged, seemed to have something to be angry about.

"Canade is sweet."

"What's wrong, suddenly?"

"It's a good thing about Canade that you can be angry for someone... I thought again"

"Hmm... I don't know, but I've been praised ♪ eheheheheheheheheheheheheheheheheheheheheheheheheheheheheheheheheheheheheheheheheheheheheheheheheheheheheheheheheheheheh

Canade sounded happy and his throat rattled.

... I wonder how you're making that sound?

I don't care, but I was so curious.

"As for Edgar, there is also the matter of demonization. As soon as we can talk, we're going to go ahead with your investigation. Most of all, he didn't seem to remember anything, so it might be difficult..."

"I see. So... I generally understand about the Lords, but what happens about this city?

It developed into a hell of a case where the lord and his son were all under arrest.

What will happen to this city from now on?

Everyone will be curious.

"Not immediately... but in the Wang capital, a new lord will be appointed. Then it will take even longer for me to actually worship you. In the meantime, it seems that the lords of other cities will assume concurrent responsibilities… for a while, the chaos may persist"

"Right..."

From now on, the city of Horizons could be hit by a great deal of chaos.

I pulled the trigger.

Thinking about it, I'm not sure if this was the right thing to do.

"Rain, Rain"

"Yeah?"

"Yeah, do it."

Pekon, and Canade slapped him gently.

"Hey, what?

"You've been thinking weird right now, haven't you? Is this a good idea, or something like that?"

How do you know that?

Unexpectedly, when he rounds his eyes to surprise, Canade tends his chest well.

"Hmm, I know everything about Rayne. I'm Rain's demon." "

Normal, isn't it the other way around?

Doesn't the Lord know the devil better?

"Rain is sweet, so you think about it a lot. But never mind there. If you care, you lose."

"Losing..."

"Nyah... I mean, what I'm trying to say is that Rain isn't bad! Instead, I think you did a great job. I think a lot of people cried when I left the Lords alone. Rayne was able to stop crying. I think that's something to be proud of."

"... Canade..."

"So cheer up. Don't think bad. Right?"

"... right"

Even though Canade is encouraging me, I can't be depressed forever.

I did what I could do.

It is difficult to seek perfection.

Let's decide to change our minds that way somehow.

"I agree with you."

Following Canade, Stella says the same.

"Rayne accomplished something no one else could. That's to be proud of, not to be sick. Without Rain, what would have happened to this city... As I said earlier, Rain is a hero of this city"

"Stop being a hero."

"No, I won't stop. It's true."

Stella has a mean grin.

After understanding that I'm confused, I guess I'm telling you.

I thought you were a serious knight, and you have an outgoing, mean personality.

"Again, let me thank you. Thank you, Rain."

Stella gave me her hand...

I held that hand back tightly.

"Maybe Rayne will be called a hero elsewhere."

"What's the matter, all of a sudden?

"Mm-hmm. That's all I felt Rain was going to accomplish."

I don't care if they say that...

Overrated.

"I value you very much. Why don't you join the Knights?

"Huh? To the Knights?

"Uhm. Rain would make a great knight for sure. I'll guarantee it. Besides, we're short on manpower right now. What do you say we keep the peace and order of this city together?

"No, no, no!"

For some reason, Canade refused.

"Rayne is going on an adventure with us! I can't do a knight! No, hey."

"Mm, really?

"Really!

"Don't answer for me."

"'Cause Rayne's gonna be gone..."

That's not true.

Touch Canade's head.

"There's no way I'm breaking up with the Canades, is there? He's an important companion."

"Nyah."

Canade that makes me happy.

When I look at that face, I kind of feel sweet.

"Right, too bad. Looks like you've been shaken."

"Bad, 'cause I think adventurers look better."

"I want you to tell me whenever you change your mind. You're welcome."

"At that time, thank you."

This will be the end of the story.

Decide so and head to the exit.

"If you need anything, I'll help you then. Don't hesitate to say it."

"Uhm. Let me count on you. See you... See you later."

"Oh, again"

Stella and I exchanged greetings, and we followed the Knights Branch.
