Returning the Megalo Whale to the Ocean, we returned to the Good Luther with the captured demon.

"Oh, you're safe, boy!

"You're all safe and above all!

Mr. Byrne and Mr. Mailene greet us on deck when they see us back.

The deck is soaking wet for some reason, but, well, I guess there was a lot going on. Mainly the aftermath.

"So you got any information? Oh, no, I'm sure it worked because Megalo Whale left offshore."

"Speaking of which, what about you? What an unusual outfit..."

And, Mr. Mailene looks surprised when she sees the demon.

"Oh, I'm the tenant in this case."

"What? Is this man the killer!?"

"Yes, the killer's demon."

I stick the demons out in front of Mr. Byrne and the others.

"Well, you call me a demon...... demon?

Mr. Byrne's here? Keep your neck shut.

Mr. Mailene's a demon, too? I think.

""...... Huh!? "

And Vikri and his body shook that they both remembered something at the same time.

"" Demon Man, huh!? "

Um, breathing perfectly.

"Yes, a demon."

"Are you talking about the demon?!? The demon race that once tried to destroy mankind?!?"

"Is that demon said to be the family of the evil god who led the world to ruin?!?"

"Yes, that demon."

Although it has been said a lot, the actual demon is right to be an invader from different worlds.

Human beings in another world, that's who demons are.

But it's weird. I think most knights and nobles know that.

"That's why I'm turning you in as the killer who knows all the truth."

"Ugh, um..."

Mr. Byrne, who is unconstitutionally protruded and confronted with demons.

"It's okay. Rest assured we are restraining you with a captive magic item"

"Oh, you had such a precious item!?"

"I got it by accident."

Materials.

So, I show you two the magic items that bind the Demon Man.

I mean, I think we all use captive magic items to catch criminals.

Oh, well. These people are aristocrats, so don't you do a low-end job of capturing criminals?

Yeah, yeah, even in previous life, people just ordering from above didn't know that kind of normal thing.

Then I'm convinced.

Whoa, let's also add a magic item to seal the magic at last.

Now that you're sealing it with my magic, it's tough when the magic runs out.

I gently attach magic items that seal magic to demons. [M]

"And here's the magic item that seals the magic. Please be careful not to remove it."

"Ah, oh. Of course."

"Well, even that stuff... isn't it a national treasure class"

Haha, you're exaggerating.

"So, let me tell you everything"

Mr. Byrne attempts to interrogate the detained demon.

But the demon looked at Mr. Byrne and laughed with his nose.

"Ha, don't make me laugh, human. Sorry about your time. Don't eat anymore! The wings! No wings. Yikes!!"

Although he was a demon who tried to refuse Mr. Byrne's interrogation, he immediately declared defeat when Moffmoff, who jumped over his head, roughly twisted his wings.

Are demon feathers delicious?

"Wow, okay! Say it! I confess! So do something about him. Yikes!!"

When he held up Moffmoff from the utterly defeated demon, Moffmoff had a proud face and a sweet bite.

Are you telling me to praise you?

"All right, all right."

Well, I made the demon confess honestly, so let me give you an honest compliment here.

And then Mohmov shuddered with a pull.

Oh, you shouldn't. This is a sign of pee.

When I rushed Moffmoff down to the ground, Moffmoff started taking a leak with Chorocholo.

No, it's dangerous...

"Wow!?"

Shit, I put it over the demon man.

"Su, Sugee, not only did you capture that legendary demon, but you used your pet to pee the demon man who confessed to the phrase you tortured"

"Thoroughly break the other person's heart. What a terrible torture technique."

Oh, no, I'm not thinking about that!

The sailors are stunned to see me far away.

"No, wait, that's not torture"

And it was Marlene who defended me.

Good, you got it right.

"Lord Rex hasn't got any hands on it. It was the pet's voluntary, no, seemingly voluntary behavior that leaked the pee over the wings. In other words, Lord Rex is not torturing you. This falls within the scope of interrogation only. Anyway, my pet went on his own. Besides, pets are seemingly adorable dogs? So it doesn't look more like torture. This is going to be a new interrogation revolution for the interrogators."

I don't get it!

"Hey, enough, dog? That's why we don't have a choice."

"Oh, but you're not a cat?

"What the hell is that creature?

Ugh, I haven't solved any misunderstandings, but, well, the question has moved to Moffmoff, so let's just reopen the interrogation now.

In the meantime!

"So why don't you answer me?"

"... we were planning a major offensive against humanity. As one of the manoeuvres for this purpose, I was ordered to use biological weapons using megalo whales. I was told to use the magic of the Megalo Whale to crush the country by the sea.

That's a giant magic item.

"Crushing!?"

Mr. Mailene is called crushing his country rather than dominating it.

"It's a fact. We were trying to condense the magic of Megalo Whale's parents, five kilometers long, to express the power of great destruction."

"Ho, was it really like the country blowing up?

Mr. Mailene tells me she can't believe it. [M]

"It was a lot of magic, so even if we didn't have to take the whole country, the king's capital and the surrounding towns and villages would definitely have been devastated."

"Or, devastation..."

Without knowing it, Mailene blues her face and shivers at the progress of things that we had never imagined.

"Don't worry. The magic item was dismantled and the megalo whale went back to the outer ocean as well. The immediate crisis has left."

"Oh, you even did that to me!?"

"Yes, because it happened to be a silo thing to the extent that it seemed like it could be managed"

"What silo thing could I possibly manage..."

It would be easy to disassemble if Mailene knew more or less about magic items, although she was stunned.

Now, more than that, it's a continuation of the interrogation.

"Is Kraken's appearance in the inner ocean part of that?

"That's right. Having attacked Megalo Whale and brought it closer inland, I brought Kraken in so that he could live inland even with less food for Megalo Whale. Looks like some of them got away with it."

Cheng Cheng, some of them fled to the inner ocean?

You can't go through there if you're the giant parent of a megalo Whale.

Well, it looks like the juveniles are following me.

"Why did you bother feeding me?

Mr. Byrne asks demon questions.

"Buy time to complete magic extraction to magic items and feed them to lure them inland."

As far as it goes, no matter how many attacks drove him off, he's likely to refuse to approach the interior as an instinct of the organism.

"What are the details of the operation? Which other countries are being targeted?

"I don't know, I was only told what I was in charge of, not even what the other personnel were doing"

"Don't lie to me! Is there a man in the organization who doesn't know what his people are doing?

Although Mr. Byrne is fierce, I think this is the Devil's right.

Because even in the human country, junior clerks can only give us information about their operations, and it's possible that even the average soldier doesn't understand their operations very well.

Or Zara had that experience in her previous life. Enemies and allies.

But, well, is that expert work there?

Actually, that's just what I think, and it's possible that you really have some important information.

So I leave the demon interrogation to Mr. Byrne and the others.

Our job is only to investigate Megalo Whale and Kraken's arrival in the inner ocean.

"We need to hurry and inform the country that the demons were planning a major offensive."

I order my men to report how Mr. Mailene is stuck with his feathers.

It's an issue that needs to be dealt with in a hurry for the Marlenes, whose country was actually targeted.

"So is my country. Lieutenant, we need to get this demon back to his home country and request a counter-measure conference!

"I understand. It's not just about us. You'll also need to contact the neighbouring countries."

The deputy commander orders his men to wrap up the anchor of the Good Luther.

"Hey, wait a minute! The demon man was captured on our territory. We should make sure of that in our country."

"No, no, we're the ones who brought the information on the Megalo Whale. It was our country who captured him."

Oh, that's disgusting.

Let me get this home early.

Then we'll let you go home.

"Wait a minute! You are a credit to this investigation! I want you to attend a detailed meeting as a person in my country."

"Wait, Mr. Rex and the others are the benefactors of our country. So be sure to entertain me as a guest in our country!

Yeah, this isn't good. Very bad.

I'm willing to use me.

"Uh, it's going to be a long story, so can you sign this paperwork for me once? The Adventurer Alliance asked me to investigate the Megalo Whale, and I was able to get the details from the Demon Man, so I'm done. So when it comes to demons, it's another contract."

"Mm, is that what this is all about? Well, maybe it is."

When I gave Mr. Byrne the Guild Request Completion Certificate with Penn, Mr. Byrne honestly received it and wrote me an autograph of receipt.

"Is this good?

"Yes, thank you. This completes the Megalo Whale investigation."

And for that reason...

When I turn around, I call in Mr. Liliera and the others.

"What?"

"What's going on, brother?

"What's the matter, boy?

Mr. Byrne leans down on our actions.

"Airshade!"

I activate blinding wind magic on the deck.

"Ugh, wow!? What!?"

"I will say goodbye to you on this because I'm sorry for the trouble!

"Hey, what!? What's that?!?"

When I ignored Mr. Byrne and the others, I activated the magic of the transfer and returned to the capital.

"Yes, I'm home."

If everyone opens their eyes, this is already my house in the king's capital.

"Huh? Is this your brother's house?

"When... is that right, transfer magic!?"

They were all baffled by the sudden transfer, but gradually they grasped the situation and calmed down.

"But why did you suddenly return to King's Capital? Those people still seemed to have some errands for Mr. Rex."

"Yes, you said you would treat me like a national guest as a benefactor of the country!

"No, because that's a hassle"

"Trouble..."

Mina looks at me with a frightened face. [M]

"Is it good? I had a chance to be a hero."

"Mr. Liliera, a hero is a title that you can use as a geese in the chain of honor. I thought it was more important to live freely as an adventurer than a meaningless title like that."

"It's so easy to get rid of your honor."

I'm surprised, but Liliera says it's only in the way of honor.

"If you become a hero, you'll get status and wealth. I guess that's what makes you a nobleman, huh?

That's what I wish for.

I'm so sorry about the nobility.

Anyway, it is about the title of a lower nobleman, and the other nobles will say that they will rise and despise, and that if anything happens, they will stand up for their country.

"I'm not interested in noble status or honor. I have enough money to sweep and throw away."

"If you say so, you would have."

Honestly, I already have quite a fortune.

I know the price of Wang Du, so there's no way I'm going to be literally literate right away unless I spend so much weird money.

Truth is, adventurers make money.

Honestly, it's unthinkable since I was a hero.

"Besides, if I became a nobleman and chose a cheap life, wouldn't there be no reason for Mr. Liliera to follow me?

It seems that Liliera's purpose is to repay me.

Well, as far as I'm concerned, I'm the one who wants Mr. Liliera to be active.

I want her to be so happy that she has lived an unfair life since she was a young girl that she has challenged her previous misfortunes.

"Well, you do get in trouble when they say that. I haven't repaid you at all yet. [M] I mean, I think there's more Ning Luo En..."

"hahaha"

"I mean, that's it. Lex's brother doesn't even care about his cocky reputation. He's an amazing man! I can tell you that I don't care about fame as a country hero, so Brother Yappari is amazing!

"Mmm, Lex is normal enough to pluck our common sense"

"Right. You're laughing that saving the world isn't a big deal because it's about Mr. Rex."

"I can tell."

Oh, shit, I think I'm overrated, huh?

There are as many people around the world as I can do.

But, well, it seems like you've all convinced me, so is that good?

When we returned to Wang Capital, we returned to the town of Physio and submitted the request fulfillment documents to the Alliance.

And I went through the process of getting my reward put in the guild deposit, and then I came back to King's Capital again.

Part of the reward for this request is the involvement of the Knights of the Inner Ocean, so it's possible that Mr. Byrne won't be able to transfer it until he returns.

So, seeing Mr. Byrne is going to be another hassle, so I asked him to make an account transfer.

Well, either way, I'm pretty sure you're staying long on the demon thing.

Luckily, I have a pile of savings, so I don't have to worry about money.

So, when we came back to Wang Capital, we were looking at the Alliance's request board.

"Hmm, I knew I didn't have a busy request yet"

Due to the impact of the last long crusade, the number of requests remains low.

"Hey, now let's go to this"

"That'll take a lot of days."

"But it's good enough"

"Well, it looks good in terms of the number of members"

In the meantime, you still low-ranked gyros were indulging in the request without any problems.

Nice, sounds like fun.

I was wondering if you could lower your Adventurer rank.

"What are you talking about?"

Mr. Liliera pissed me off.

"You've reached the S-rank, the highest of adventurers, and if you say that, other adventurers will piss you off."

Um, as far as I'm concerned, I don't know why I got an S-rank, so I don't know if it's okay to say otherwise, or if it's better to go down.

"So what do you do? Going to another town again? Or take a break?

Well, I don't have a job even if I'm in Wang Du, and I'm going to be led to another weird request by the guild chief if I don't seem to have much free time.

If so, go ahead...

"I've moved a little too flashy lately, and it might be a good idea to go to a distant country"

"A little?"

It's a little.

I'm about to be seen by nobles and knights, and it might be a good idea to work in a foreign country until most of them are cold.

If you use the gate, you'll be home soon.

"Because of this, let's go somewhere we've never seen or heard of like the Inland Ocean."

Besides, Mr. Liliera can fly in the sky now, and it would be nice to go somewhere I miss her.

"Okay, I've made up my mind! Next time go with a foreign trip!

"I will follow your path. Anyway, there's gonna be a hell of a case where you're going."

Wait, don't call people like troublemakers.

"Oh, yeah. Because of this, I thought I'd ask you to auction off the gemstone I got from the Megalo Whale."

I'm back in the Horn King's Capital, and I need you to buy me some demonic materials.

"Waited."

And, for some reason, Mr. Liliera can stop me.

"Huh? Why is that?

"Why did you decide to make a big deal of yourself for a while? So why are you throwing in a spark to make a fuss?

"Huh?"

"Huh? No!

We were desperately stopped for some reason, so we decided to sell Megalo Whale's original stones in another country.

If selling in this country makes a scene, another country would be good!

"Okay! Then get ready for the journey!

Heh heh, I feel kind of strange about touring the world for purposes other than battle.

I hope there's a whole cup of strange places like the Inner Ocean.

I am the king of demons.

Today he ate the winged prey that the Lord had caught.

Wow!? What the hell is this?!? Looks like magic is all over your body!!

Excellent! This prey is a great ingredient!

I feel like I've got wings on my body!

K, cuckoo, cuckoo, cuckoo!!

Stupid, human! Looks like you were going to keep me, but you were just offering your prey to a beast beyond your control!

Come on, the main dish is next.

Yes, they'll eat your meat.

Hamham... Am...

Uh, I can't chew it off at all.

Oh, no, it's nothing, it's a joke, Lord?

Pong.

The hand of the LORD is put on my head.

He began rubbing my head with exquisite force.

What, a sacrificial ritual? Am I going to be eaten?

Cholo cholo cholo ~.

I leaked it.
