Lyell seemed to have managed to calm his emotions after his battle with me.

But there are other Cortina and Maria. As for these two, it won't be as easy as Maxwell or Gaddles or Lyell.

Maria is the mother who gave birth to me with a stomachache, and Cortina has been thinking of me since my last life.

I've been fooling them for fifteen years, and I'm not supposed to be easily forgiven.

"Uh, the..."

"... now is a good time. Nicole, get your arms out."

"To?"

"It's an emergency right now, so I'm telling you I'll put you behind me anyway. Besides, your left arm's not going up anymore, is it?

"Oh, yeah."

As Maria says, my left arm doesn't move from elbow to tip, nor does my right hand move from wrist to tip numb.

If you look where the dull pain still persists, maybe even the bone is damaged.

"Because Lyell doesn't know the limits anymore. What if Nicole gets a scratch?"

"No, but look, it's Reid... and I don't know why either..."

"I'm not making excuses! Even if it's Reid, it's a girl, right?

"Ugh, sorry."

"No, when they say girls and stuff there, I feel awesome too..."

I've been a woman for fifteen years already, and I've even come to the moon stuff. It's vain to insist that 'I'm a man' even though I can make children if I want to.

Still, is it a luxury to want your old buddies to recognize me only as a man?

"Look, get your arms out, don't you move? Stay still."

"Yes."

"I'm not answering you with a delay!

Sooner or later, the blunt pain in my arms disappears. At the same time, both my left arm and my right hand started to move as I wished.

I guess this attitude of Maria is her fortitude. Still, like this, it's gratifying to me that you always behave the way you do.

I think Lyell just falls in love, and she's a really good woman, too.

But knowing that won't clear my mind. That's because of Cortina's presence, sitting silently beside Maria.

He wakes up from a temporary amazement, creases between his eyebrows, and stares at this one with a staring glance.

Of course I know how she feels. From her standpoint, I think I've done pretty bad.

But I don't think there's anything I can do about this. Perhaps even if I were put in the same situation again, I wouldn't be able to reveal it to them.

"Nicole...... no Reid"

"Ha, hiya!?

From such a cortina, I get a cold voice and I try to jump and correct my posture.

Point towards Cortina in upright immobility and face the front. So I can't gaze at it, so I don't think I have a good time.

Turning to the front, then only his gaze slipped away and looking at me sloppily sweating cold sweats, Cortina sighed heavily.

"Ha, you rock so brilliantly, you can't even be unnamed... and don't get mad at me if they behave like that. No, I'm really mad about Reid. As much as I want to bump it with a blunt instrument in both hands. I can't hit you in the face."

"I'm so sorry about that verse..."

"When you can't get away with it, Nicole's the one thing that makes you so vain about words, right?

"No, this is a habit from a previous life."

"Could it have? But, well, if you think about it, you have a lot in common. The fact that you want to be impotent, the fact that the stuffing is sweet and dodgy, and the dullness that you don't notice when you're hot. I was wondering how you didn't notice."

"I knew I was a hottie in my last life?

I've been reincarnated as a woman and heard rumors about Reid in people. That rating is not all bad.

I'd rather call it good. I learned since I was reborn that I was highly regarded in a different direction from Lyell.

If this is the case, there is no word to return it even if it is said to be dull.

"It seems like you were the only one who didn't realize, but yeah. As far as I'm concerned, I didn't care."

"I'm sorry about that."

"Enough about that, I didn't forgive you. Let's get back to that. First of all, that demon god. I don't even have to think about it..."

"Oh, you're the guy Kufal was summoning"

"Wasn't it sealed in the world tree? Does that mean you're getting out?

"I wonder if that's going to happen. Whatever you say, Bahamut is white, too. It must have been a hole in the surveillance net."

"Well, I'm sure it's possible that someone she knows"

This is what Cortina tells me, so the more reliable the white one is.

Even so, if Kufal starts to leap again, we won't be able to relax either.

Lyell says there was a massive raid before he traveled to Berito, and he's got to be doing some more than he knows we have a six-hero in this village.

"Whatever it is, we need to consolidate our defenses more than we do now. Gaddles, can you stay here for a while?

"The city of Strahl is also under attack. We can't just sit here for so long."

"Strahl too! So this is going to be a pretty massive raid?

"On the contrary, the demon god who came to Strahl was also a two-sword man."

"I knew there would be more than one occurrence in Verito, but it would be tough if we could get the numbers together so far"

I can manage one-on-one that the Twin Swords Demon God is a six-hero class, but in the case of the average adventurer, he has no hands or feet.

"Anyway, if there's a number, it won't just mean this village is dangerous. I'll be in touch with you soon."

That said, when Lyell took his seat, a vigilante soldier jumped into the mansion.

We detect the signs and head to the front door immediately.

There was one young soldier looking wolfy, crawling on all fours with his breath rough. How hastily they rushed in.

"La, Master Lyell! To the north...... to the north, a new demon god!

"What!?

When we heard further reports, we jumped out of Lyell's mansion again.
