I had another dream.

The view through someone's eyes, like when I touched Philip.

The place was in a dim cave - and in a space so vast that it could be expressed in the underground world - I saw the view in front of me through the sight of an incredibly large creature.

Yikes! I won!! "

Standing in front of her is a blonde woman who one day saw through Philip.

He bleeds blood from his forehead and raises his right fist high in the sky with an expression filled with a sense of accomplishment.

From now on, don't bother people or kill them by playing! I promised to protect you!!

———

"Huh? Is it cowardly to borrow the help of other gods and beasts? Forgive me, I'm human!

A woman who has a positive impression that time is different from what I saw. [M]

She peers into the eyes larger than the height of the Lord of Vision's large head and puts her hand on her hips with a clear smile.

In that case, as promised, you'll be under my command from now on... but first of all, from your name. Your street name is about to bite your tongue! "

———

In the meantime, how about Dura? What, you don't like it? I thought it would be nice.... so, Medulla? Lian? "

She raises her index finger after a few seconds of groaning at the Lord of Vision, who leaks a moody roar.

Okay, what's your name...

After listening to the name, a feeling of being pulled away from the scenery in front of you is approached.

When I accidentally closed my eyes, someone stumbled on my forehead. [M]

He is lying on the cold ground.

But only the head is on something like a pillow.

Leaving it to your awakening consciousness, slowly opening your eyes...

Are you awake?

"Eh...?"

What I saw was a gray-haired girl I had never met. [M]

Longer hair than Rifa.

Characteristic slit eyes.

I had no choice but to confuse myself with a girl dressed like a black and white dress with her lap pillow on somehow. [M]

"Well, who...?"

……

A little surprised, the girl with her eyes wide open immediately smiles.

"Medullarium. My name is Merliah."

Huh?

It's my name.

First of all, I'd like you to explain the situation, but I've been named.

Why am I here in the first place?

I have a vague memory before I go to sleep.

"My name is Alihara Kite. Um, Meli!"

At that time, I suddenly remember what I saw in my dreams. [M]

Three-neck Orochi is tormented in a dark cave.

And a girl who tormented Orochi with anger.

The calm atmosphere surrounded me, but the girl with my head on her lap was definitely the girl I dreamed of. [M]

The girl smiled impatiently as she inadvertently called out her name.

"Oh, I'm sorry. I was hoping you'd finally call me by my name...."

"You dreamt... no, I'm not Yuran, someone grabbed me...! Where am I!?"

I remember here before I finally fainted.

Someone took Yuran before I went to bed.

Looking around, it seems to be in an unusually gloomy ruin.

I don't have a heart, I feel like the ruins I flew first.

Huh

"Don't get up yet."

When you try to get up quickly, your chest is pushed back to the starting position with your hands.

An unimaginable strength from a woman's thin arm.

A girl named Melia shows me a familiar water bottle beside me, moaning at a force that I can't resist at all.

Cue, cue!?

"Lime!?"

"It would be very helpful if you wouldn't go mad. I don't want to hurt you either."

A lime can be heard from a closed water bottle.

Slowly laying it on the floor, she looked down and smiled at me, who had stopped fighting.

"Let's make a promise first. I'm not going to be hostile to you. I turned my hand a little bit, but please understand that it's all for this time..."

"He turned his hand around... maybe Yuran..."

"Yes, it's like a partly detached double."

When Merliah turned to the front, there was black armor sitting still.

No, that's not all.

Many other armor of the same shape have been thrown out of the way.

"Don't worry. She's just a little sleepy."

"Did you manipulate Yuran...?"

"I didn't want you here, so I had no choice but to make it rough."

……

You shouldn't trust me yet.

Whatever thoughts you may have had, you must have forcibly seized me. [M]

Besides, given Philli's time, the identity of this daughter--

"Are you a god beast?"

"Yes"

"... I look like a person."

She looks like a girl.

Even from the standards of this world, it looks away from reality, but it still takes the form of a human being.

"Some god beasts have the same form as people. It only reflects the shape of the soul as a person in reality, so I can't change the appearance...."

"That's right...."

"Ferrihert is not good at humanizing, so I can't talk like this. In that sense, you can say that I am better."

Melia glances at me and smiles.

You look a little braggish without a heart.

"Master Kite, you don't have to be afraid of me. In the first place, because I am sealed in this ruins, I am a small being who can't even get out of here."

……

So you let Yuran grab me?

The next question, though, is why you brought me here. [M]

... for now, I don't feel hostile, and I'm talking to someone.

Let me ask you a few stepping questions here.

"Did you approach me... because I have the magic of the Pure Devil? So, do you want to be free by unsealing the seal on yourself...?"

"No."

Clearly, Melia, who has strongly denied it, takes my face off. [M]

"Now I don't care about the magic of the Pure Demon. It's too late."

"Too much?"

Ignoring my doubts with a smile, she continues to say with her hands on her cheeks.

"No matter how many compatriots you fall to, no matter how many you kill, no matter how powerless you lose, I am your understanding and I will remain your sincere servant."

"Why is that...?"

"Because you have the qualities to do so. As early as possible, the magic of the Pure Demon is only one element that constitutes you for me."

That's how Mary puts her hand around my heart.

"Until then, physical strengthening - pure demon reincarnation is tied to your soul."

Pure Demon, Tessho?

After returning a smile to my doubtful voice, she stares into the hollow with distant eyes. [M]

It seemed to me as if I was looking to the future ahead.

"You are the king's vessel. There is only one pure demon of gold in this world."

The eyes of purple light peeking from the gap between my gray hair look down at me.

"Evidence of the great sin that humans feared and picked. And the one who was loved by the devil and born of destiny."

"Wait a minute, such a sudden king's vessel...!"

"We, the Beast of God, are nothing but a beast who has lost the LORD and broken his bond. That's why it's my job to establish you as our king."

You don't understand the meaning of the story at all.

All of a sudden, I was told that the King had flew, but honestly, I don't want to do such a difficult thing.

And somehow, the beast in front of me seems to be lying.

Can you say no?

No, but I know what you're talking about, and somehow... people? So, if you sue me properly, you'll hear me.

"Kotowa..."

"But that's before the building."

"... eh?"

"I'm not going to give you to another elephant god beast. I'm the only one who can make you stronger or raise you."

That's where I finally meet her eyes.

My eyes, which seemed emotionless without showing anything, reflected only my appearance.

"This is the end of helping St. Real feel like a beast. I don't want to be connected to someone who doesn't understand us and can only be afraid."

"I don't think so...."

"This is where you are. It looks like we've already been approached by about three god beasts (garbage), but don't worry. I'll protect you."

Someday, your torso is forced to rise with your tall arm, and you can be hugged.

Shit.

As it stands, it certainly sucks.

Even if I desperately tried to scratch my feet with a sense of danger that I lost my vocabulary, no matter how much power I put in my body, my arms won't move even fine dust.

"Kate, please. Call me by my name."

Merliah turned her arms as if she were expressing her will never to let me escape.

Her restraint is strong enough that I won't scratch my feet, but I don't feel any difficulty breathing there.

But my current situation was just enough to remind me of a prey caught by a snake. [M]
