Munou To Yobareta Ore, Yottsu No Chikara Wo Eru

"Huh..."

What... what am I...

This place......

"Ha! Lordy......!?

It was me who woke up and tried to move, but that's when I finally realized my body was restrained.

I don't recognize the scenery that looks around but can be seen from it, and I can tell that I'm hanging from it quite high again.

His hands were tied to the ceiling in an outfit tied over his head, and his feet were equally chained to the floor.

It brings back memories gradually.

I fell asleep besides me by that woman, and lost my mind the moment I was restrained in this strange chain.

Is Lord safer than that......

Pity though I was alarmed... I can't believe they caught me instead of protecting Lord...

"Long time no see... Rebecca"

Suddenly they called my name.

When I look at the voice, a man with feathers like a black coat stands.

This guy... somewhere...

"Where the hell are we... you...!

"Fuhaha...... you forgot the rest? Didn't you play a lot back in the day... having a light kill, etc."

So I remembered.

Right... you mean...

"Xeno... or...?

"I don't know. You seem to remember."

Among the demon king candidates there were several, me and Xeno were particularly magical, and they were told by all around that the next demon king would be one of them.

This tone and standing...... apparently Xeno became the next demon king after I was gone.

Nevertheless... why me now...?

"What can I do for you..."

"You're completely out of your mind, Rebecca... at that time, you were above the rest. But how about now? Running into the human world, let alone serving humans, etc... you have no pride as a demon? I'll always be a human being. Your power should only be used for the sake of the devil clan. Let me remind you of that."

"Don't be ridiculous...... I'm me!

I've been trying to use magic for a while now, but I've never been able to work out magic. On the contrary, it didn't even help.

Perhaps there's some trick in this chain.

But whatever it is, it doesn't matter... whatever it takes to get out and go back under Lord...!

"It's no use, Rebecca. That's a bit of a nasty substitute... if you get caught in the rest of it, you just don't have to. You can't get out of here right now. Stay with me for a while. Re-education comes from that."

"Sa, re-education...?

What do you mean... what are you gonna do to me?

"Oh... it's easy. Erase your previous memories and plant new ones. Remember my hatred for humans."

That's what Zeno laughs at.

I felt all the blood pulling away.

Erase the memory?

Remember the days I spent with Master Crown and... Lord!?

No... no... no, no, no, no, no, no!

"Don't be ridiculous! Why did you do that to me?

"Would it be decided? The rest is overwhelmingly stronger now... but the ability to sleep within you stands alongside the rest. To set it free. It is hatred of humans that increases the power of our demons. If you and I wake up, there will be no enemies in this world. Then... Valhalla belongs to the Demons."

Hate for humans increases the power of demons?

I've never heard of that.

But more than that...!

"I'm not kidding... who will be good to you! Re-education? Try it...... but! I'm not that sweet! Whatever they do, I won't give in......!

"Huhaha...... I don't have that kind of hobby left. All you do is tamper with your memory. That ends it all. And... you seem to be making some kind of mistake? Let's say you got out of here. At that time... I will kill your master" Sagittarius "first. That's why I kept him alive. I know where he lives, no matter what he hides. I don't care if you wipe him out of this world every town..."

"You!

"Fuhaha...... didn't you look good. Well, let's start by cutting your magic. Break your heart after that. Hey...... I have plenty of time. As long as you're a grown-up, you won't get your hands on your ex-husband, Sagittarius. Wouldn't it be a long time to warm up an old relationship... hey Rebecca"

Dear Lord………….

Whoa, whoa.

"Thank you, Thielen... I'll be grateful"

"Huh... yeah... well, fine... you'll make my wish come true..."

"It's bound to come true. When this is over."

"Yes, yes... see you later..."

Unusual for a weapon, it pulled magic out of a sleepy Thielen, and me and Thia contacted King Celtic near Celtic's main entrance.

Although there is a limit to the number of times one can travel per day, Thielen is a wand that can be transferred to a place where the owner has been.

Thanks to this I was able to come to Celtic in an instant.

"Not long after you think it's gone dark for a moment... it's amazing what a legendary musketeer is..."

"Oh, just people I can count on. It seems His Majesty still takes a little time. Let's wait a little further away."

We move along the streets a little further from town and wait for King Celtic.

After a while, a carriage pulled by two horses stopped in front of us, with King Celtic sitting in its cockpit like no other.

"I'm sorry. I ate time to get out of the castle."

Getting out......?

"Your Majesty... a moment..."

"There's no reason to be allowed to go to Inhelm. I borrowed the carriage from the Alliance, pretending to know nothing! No!

I knew it... I must apologize to Eddie later.

And for my sake, the king of a nation... thank you, if you can't cut it.

"Your Majesty, nice to meet you. My name is Tia."

"Oh, you're Tia... nice to meet you. Okay, let's just say we listen in the carriage. Not good if it stops too much."

"Okay. The maneuver is here...... Eppoly!

I immediately summoned Epoli and entrusted her with steering the carriage.

In the running carriage King Celtic opens his mouth as he strokes his jawbeard.

"And it's convenient... by the way, Epoli and I, you know the way?

"None, Your Majesty. As long as we know the general direction, we'll be fine for now."

"All right, keep going southeast on the road, please. So, Lord, are you already in Miraja synchronizing Byrne?

"Yeah, it should be in Mr. Byrne's story. I haven't heard who's coming..."

"Well... well, I'm sure whoever comes can count on it. I just wish it wasn't Zawan."

"Uh... why?

I'm sure he was a pretty good adventurer with two names: "Divine Speed"...

"That's... shut up"

"Ugh, shut up...?

"Well, we'll see each other sometime. That way you know what I'm talking about. Well, Byrne wouldn't do that, so Zawan wouldn't come."

"Ha ha..."

"I hope so... How far do you guys know about Inhelm?

"When they say that..."

"Hey, I don't know anything..."

All I ever knew was that it was snowblowing or that there were demons and demons.

I don't even know how big it is or what kind of structure it is.

Other information in the first place would not be well known to me.

"I guess. Well, that's something I can't help. There are only so many people who get in there and go home alive that they count with one hand. So, this is the map."

"" Huh!? You have a map!?

King Celtic took it out of his nostalgia looking important.

That's not normal paper... it looks like some kind of skin.

"Our Celtic is closest to the Demonic Continent. Therefore... I have been acting to learn more about the Demons for a long time. This map was created by someone from Greece... but the guy is a trustworthy man. Dead, this is a pretty accurate map. Even the Demons don't know about the existence of this map... would it be easier to set up an operation with this?

King Celtic tells that as he spreads two maps to the floor.

One was a map of the entire continent and the other depicted something like a castle in the center.

Wow... I don't know exactly what's going on inside, but the surroundings are pretty detailed as well.

It even says what kind of facility it is......

"Honestly, I remember Lord telling me he existed too. This demonic movement... I don't think it has anything to do with Levy or the fact that there are more demons in Celtic right now. Well, we'll see all the details later."

Whoa, whoa.

By the time it got dark, we finally arrived in Miraja, the port town.

After we leave the carriage, we head straight to the Adventurer Alliance where Mr. Byrne's contemporaries are waiting.

In the carriage I had managed to calm my mind by talking to everyone, but when I realized I was close to the Inhelm, I couldn't help but calm down.

I want to go under Levy as soon as possible.

I want to help Levi.

Levi......!

"Calm down, Lord"

"Ah..."

Looking back in response to King Celtic's voice, we were a long way from each other.

Apparently, he was on the run at some point.

I didn't notice at all until I could speak to King Celtic......

"There's nothing you can just get out of your mind. I told you earlier... Levy shouldn't be here any time soon. It's over on the spot if you're going to kill me. You have to calm down. Okay?"

"Yes......"

"Mr. Lord......"

"Sorry Tia...... I'm fine"

"No... I... will do everything in my power!

"Oh, thanks......"

Pity......

I know by the head.

But my heart... it's hard not having Levi on my side...

Even while I was doing this now, I just imagined Levi might be in pain and it was going to rip my chest off.

"Listen, Lord. Anxiety easily deprives people of their ability to think. If you narrow your horizons, you won't even see what you see... laugh invincibly because it's a difficult situation. Don't be dramatic... you're not alone"

King Celtic put his hand on my shoulder and gave me a ni smile.

I take one deep breath and smile back at King Celtic.

"Thank you, Your Majesty... I'm fine now"

"All right! Let's go to the guild..."

"No bother, Temeye!

That's when suddenly I heard a yell and a man tangled up by five men went into my eyes.

What? A fight between drunks?

"You don't even apologize for bumping into me, Cora!

"Say something, Oi!

Shit...... at a time like this.

But you can't overlook it...

As he tried to come closer to stop him, the man surrounded by five muttered pompously holding his head with his right hand.

"Ha... make it hard. You bastard of Byrne... you know I won't say no and you're so unscrupulous..."

What... what's Byrne now...?

"Ha!? What are you talking about..."

"Uh, that's enough. Come on... it's a waste of time."

The air changes to that word.

Everyone was taking the weapon and pointing a cut at the man.

"Nice work... get ready for a couple of arms, motherfucker!

"You only have two arms, you idiot."

"... kill!!

The man whose fried feet were taken swung a short sword, and the person's head hung down and thoughtfully.

"What...!?

But the next moment the short sword falls out of a man's hand and off to the ground.

It was a complete distance to the head.

I can't even see the sound I played with something, or the behavior I did something with.

The man also seemed to have no idea what he had been done, shivering from fear or rattling.

"Oh, you... what the fuck!

"Why do I have to explain to you guys? It's a lot. I mean... everyone stay up till morning."

"What... oh..."

"Ha ha... ah..."

"Wah... I'm busy. I'm going to punch you in the helm. I have to go and help a woman I know from my friend, Tetsuki. Well, to tell you the truth, it's someone else... it's important to me."

"What the..."

I have no idea what I did.

They all collapsed on the spot, and in no time the five of them began to sleep on the spot.

"You... are Zwed!

The man reacted to King Celtic's voice.

I knew this guy...

"Whoa, it was late, wasn't it? I'm tired of waiting and getting out. Come on, let's go... to the Demon Nation."
