"─ ─ In other words, Lord Dunbalf is alive and well!?"

The first thing that Mira asked in Hemdor's waiting room was about Dunbalf's life and death.

Thirty years ago, Dumbledore disappeared and disappeared.Unlike the other Nine Sages, there were already many rumors about their appearance...

But such rumors are nothing but rumors.In the first place, this is how Dunbalf pinned himself cheerfully.

"Hmm, I'm doing better than ever."Well, I guess there's a lot of complicated research to be done.And, more than that, it's also related to state secrets.That's all we can talk about. I'm so sorry. "

That said, Dunbalf ran to protect himself...... but Mira was willing to push him through as a Dunbalf disciple, as she had said before.Moreover, before being asked about troublesome things, I didn't forget to stick a nail in front of me.

"I see, I see."Was Lord Dunbalf still alive?Oh, that's good to hear.I'm really glad..... "

However, unaware of Mira's appeasement, Hemdor laughed and wept with relief.

From that state of affairs, it can be seen that he was very concerned about the safety of Dunbalf.

However, in contrast to that, Mira

(Hah... but why does Hemdor care so much about me...?)

and tilted his neck.

I met Hemdor a little while ago in a quest related to the Three Gods.

At the time, he was targeted for his life.Therefore, Dunbalf was a benefactor to him, but not only Dunbalf, but all the Nine Sages, including Solomon, were involved in solving it.

In addition, his grandfather, Warrenverg, was the ultimate deciding factor, and the Dunburgs merely assisted him.

If you ask him, it should feel like you've passed him by.

That's why Mira was also surprised by Hemdor's worries.

By the way, did something ever happen before that you cared about my master so much?

Why does he care about Dunbalf?Mira, who was simply curious, asked the question by just letting her peek at the curiosity.

"Oops... I see, I'm sorry.Yes, it must be a trivial event for Lord Dunbalf.You wouldn't have even touched me.And that's why I was such a hopeless child back then. "

With a slightly bitter smile, Hemdor spoke of the events of that time when he uttered such words.

That said, Mira naturally knew what he was talking about.

The demon that was infiltrating Ozstein.Aimed at Hemdor. Warrenverg, Solomon, and the Nine Sages fought together.

In particular, Mira was much more familiar with the fight against demons and the strategy she took to fight them.

But what he wanted to tell you was ahead.

"─ ─ That's how they defeated the demons and liberated those who were suffering from the curse."But I will not go with you.because there were so many sacrifices before that.... "

Hemdor tells us that all the reasons for this are to be found in ourselves, who were terrifiedly stupid.

Satan's treachery. You know how cunning it is.

Therefore, he is also in a good position to be used.

Hemdor was a boy who wore the position of a grandson of the Three Gods and wanted to do whatever he wanted.

The demon who approached to use his foolishness and power.

The resulting uproar.

It is also true that, although all the causes lay in the devil who plotted it, the wind was harsh on the Hemdor that was used.

Apart from his current efforts, the spectators' eyes at the tournament were cold because of the past.

"The figures of my grandfather, King Solomon, and the Nine Wise Men who worked hard for the people on that day are still burning in my eyes ─ ─"

Warrenverg and Solomon fought fiercely against the devil.The Nine Wise Men turned to defend the city.He was right to be a hero.

And Hemdor smiles bitterly as he finally realizes his stupidity after the tumult.

"That said, that was a much worse state."I'm not going back to what I lost. "

Back then, I was a child beyond control.In his mouth, Hemdor regrets in his eyes.

He went on to say that as everyone celebrated the devil's subjugation, he was rounded in the corner and depressed by such a reality.

But Mira knew.Explain why he was obsessed with the devil.

”─ ─ But that's because I wanted a real friend, isn't it?”

The moment Mira said it, Hemdor opened her eyes in surprise.

But of course. Only Dunbalf knew about the matter.

And Mira remembered it as she listened to him, which was close to confession.It wasn't just a little passing, it was the boy's point of contact with Hemdor.

"Why did you do that...?"

It must be a trivial event for Dunbalf.It shouldn't have been as much of an encounter as it should have been.

Hemdor, who thought so, opened his eyes to Mira's words.

"Unfortunately, after hearing Lord Hemdor's story, I remembered one thing the master told me."There were a lot of lonely boys buried there. "

Mira said, trying to comfort her somewhere.

Back then, at the celebration of the devil's subjugation.I was rewarded with a lot of rewards, and I was already in a good mood.

After all, I got the sky cloth that I've been looking for as a material for the wise man's robe, so it's a joy to say.

In the midst of this, the boy suddenly found himself in my sight.

The corner of the venue where victory thrives.Hemdor was the boy who was nodding in that hard place, as his gaze showed.

(Thinking about it, you talked to me in a floating mood......)

What are you doing when you're happy like this?Naturally, this depressing thing would have been better.

"Dunbalf-sama is like that...""Ah, you've been talking about me...!"I'm glad, but I'm still embarrassed when it comes to my stupid childhood. "

Hemdor was delighted to have been remembered by Dunbalf or to have spoken to his disciples.

And he spake of how glad he was that he was spoken of, and how that which was spoken of was saved.

Hemdor regretted that he had developed into a catastrophe.I was worried that it was causing trouble for a lot of people.

I also felt that there were many people who thought that way.

But Dunbalf spoke to him as if nothing had happened to him.It seems that he was initially overwhelmed by Dunbalf's behavior, which he had been subjected to a lot of nonsense.

And since she was gently spoken to, she said that her emotions had exploded.

I regretted doing something terrible, and I just wanted a friend.The boy Hemdor bumped it into Dunbalf in tears.

"Lady Dunbalf listened to my words until the end.And he gave me the words that are my indicators now. "

Do you remember that day?And Hemdor divided his words therein, and continued with a restful face, as if he were praying unto God anywhere.

"In that case, next time, be strong enough to do something about yourself."Failure can be restored in the future.Today is not the end, it is the beginning.And I laughed after I said so.If it is true, even when I chanted my mistakes, Dunbalf laughed at the fact that there was a future.At that time, I thought from the bottom of my heart.Oh, here's what I want to do, too. "

In the eyes of Hemdor, who had told so much, there was longing and admiration.

It seemed to him that the words exchanged at that time were special and seemed to be the origin of his feelings for Dunbalf.

(Be strong, it's easy to crouch.You can't be that strong so easily... I'm irresponsible again.But... it was floating at that time.Xing could have said such an appropriate thing in the role-play....)

I remember saying something to him when he was crying.But Mira didn't remember what it was about.

However, I was able to predict it somehow.

It's about that time.

Today is today, tomorrow is tomorrow.Now that I know the pain, there is a way forward.There was a time when I liked those words that came out in the drama that was in place at the time.

And when I was in Dunbalf, I was enjoying a role-play with that kind of word in my mouth.

In other words, it is highly likely that he was already playing against the boy Hemdor.

Now that it has become a reality, Hemdor has come this far with the words of Dunbalf in mind, with such momentum and irresponsibility.

(...... I'm so sorry! I'm sure it was the snow on the spot!)

Yoyaya, I can't believe this is going to make a big difference in people's lives.Mira, while wandering at the fact, managed to keep it from appearing on her face.

However, in contrast to such a Mira, the momentum of Hemdor, who was somewhere intoxicated, grew.

"So I swore an oath to Dunbalf-sama."You're strong enough to beat your grandfather, and this time you'll be able to defend yourself. "

His face, as he told it, was clearer than the clear sky.

It's clear that Dunbalf's words are now so deeply rooted in his life.

"Hmm... hmm, I see." The stone is not a master. "My lord ─ ─ If you tell me about Lord Hemdor, I'm sure you'll be pleased. "

Mira hid the fact that it was a light snowflake while holding back the guilt that was floating in her mind, and she switched her mind to think that it was just a matter of thinking of Hemdor as he imagined it.

"Oh, thank you, Mira-sama!" Then there was nothing you could do to save me, Hemdor.Please let me know how much you appreciate it and if it's not enough! "

You must have been so happy.Hemdor, who had received Mira's words, stepped forward and approached her.

That enthusiasm, that passion, that belief that lives inside.Above all, the honesty that dwells in his eyes now is no longer so different from that of the boy Hemdor.

Yo, Mira felt responsible for changing him with a casual word that was in tune, and she slightly pulled her cheek out of the weight of the responsibility.

And right after that.

"Master Hemdor, please stand down."

With such a cold voice, Hemdor's body quickly pulled back to the chair.

Thinking of the situation just now, I was like an uncle who was approaching a beautiful girl with an excited face.

I guess so. But the maid who said I had to poke him in the face doesn't even allow me to get close to him.It's a brilliant early job.

"Oops, I'm sorry, Mira-sama."I was so excited to share my gratitude with Dunbalf-sama. "

"No... no, I don't mind"

The maid and master were unexpectedly lavish, but they didn't seem to care about Hemdor. On the contrary, they bowed their heads unfortunately.

I'm sure she's also a caretaker and a guard.In addition, he seems to be careful not to make his appearance worse.

No matter what kind of hemdoll maid she was, Mira smiled in her heart, confused by the relationship between the two.If he had been a boy, he would have screamed.

"Anyway, I received your feelings."I will deliver the thoughts of my Lord to you in full responsibility. "

The life of a man named Hemdor has changed a lot.There is a lot about the matter, but it is not that it has gone badly when looking at the current situation.Rather, Hemdor has grown into an incredibly fine man he could not have imagined at that time.

Above all, his efforts are the only thing that has brought him up to his current position as head of the Giant Beast Cavalry.If you are accustomed to helping, this is a joyful thing.Mira had forgotten about the past and replied with a smile.
