─ ─ Yuki perspective. At the site of "Village of Fira"...

For the first time in 200 years I stood at the entrance to 'Village of Fira'.

The village kept its original form more than I thought.

Around the "Village of Fira," there is a stone wall that shelters from demons. It was made a long time ago.

This remains with little collapse (crumb).

But the door that was replacing the castle gate is off and rolling to the ground.

If you look closely... Oh, the hardware on the connection is rusty.

This is what happens when you're exposed to rain storms all the time. Can't you help it?

Taking Odette around the gate, the familiar village showed itself.

The village I haven't returned to in 200 years was............ quiet.

I can't hear people talking at all.

All there is is is the sound of the wind shaking the mountain trees and the sounds of the birds.

The Bat Corps is only a branch of a tree or the sound of staying under a building.

"... really... no one"

There's no voice, no appearance, nothing.

It's just that there's only one house left.

It's also, like, half of what's left of the complete

The rest of it has a broken roof... broken walls... and the early story is broken due to aging.

But it doesn't look like he was vandalized by animals or demons.

My user demons and their descendants seem to have been protecting the village for a really long time.

A peek inside the house...... it was nicely organized.

The villagers took the necessary baggage and cleaned it properly before leaving the village.

"... I'm relieved."

"Really?

"In the village, I wondered what I would do if a white bone body was rolling"

The house is broken properly and normally.

No marks of burning, no marks of destruction at the hands of men.

Honestly, I was a little worried.

After I died, the Sanctuary Church attacked the villagers.

But there's no sign of battle anywhere.

After I died, the villagers honestly followed The Sanctuary Church. The 'Sanctuary Church' also accepted it and did not attack the villagers.

That's what I finally found out.

Well, after that, Lyle dived into The Sanctuary Church and made a lot of noise.

"Damn. Don't let the Patronus worry you."

"That's hard work. Yuki."

When I realized, Odette was holding my hand.

He's laughing at me, shaking his golden hair, reassuring him.

"Did you notice? You looked nervous the whole time you got here, didn't you?

"Really?

"That's right. I'm glad the villagers have escaped safely."

Then Odette looked intrigued and circled the village,

"… so this is the village where Yuki and Iris lived in their previous lives,"

I sighed like I was kind of impressed.

There is nothing in "Village of Fira" that has become an abandoned village.

There are so many bats hiding in the shadows and underneath the house.

I don't think there's anything interesting about Odette seeing it.

"Yuki. What is it made on that slope over there?

"Takahata."

"Takahata..."

"There's a water source on the north side of the mountain where the water flows naturally. It's a system that makes crops that need a lot of water up there, and crops that need less water down there."

"How do you secure water?

"I magically searched for water and secured three places. Two of them are clean spring water. You can keep drinking."

"............... yes it is"

Odette nods with a complicated look.

So, there's nothing interesting about it.

"There's something like a fence on that slope over there?

"It's a trap for capturing prey. Looking at the hung prey as it is, the villagers didn't remove it."

"Well, what about the big building there?

"It's a public bath. It's starting to draw water from water sources. Hygiene control is important, so I can wash my body at any time. Unfortunately, I could only make a small heat-resistant tub with hot water boiling."

"By the way, what about the little cabin next to it?

"There's a village message board over there. He tells me to write about the appearance of demons, what he noticed in the village, and when he wants to ask me to do something. It's called information-sharing."

"What about the little fields and cabins next to it?

"That's a herbal field and a lab. There was a clan that liked that, so I made the equipment. I think he's been selling potions to nearby towns for generations."

"Next door is a blacksmith facility... you have hair decorations that are ready to be made..."

"There was a mechanic. It is the ancestor of Rhodelia of The Grail Chamber of Commerce. He's been taking orders for a lot. I wasn't very interested, so I helped procure the ingredients."

".................. heh"

Odette has his eyes round.

"Was that unexpected? Alice and Rhodelia said a lot, but this is a normal village. There's nothing interesting about Odette."

"Yuki."

"Oh."

"... this is a village 200 years ago, isn't it?"

"That was a village 200 years ago."

"............... why is it so functional"

Odette knelt on the ground and nodded disappointingly.

"I'm going to feel defeated. There are no villages in the Duke of Slay's territory that have progressed this far. What, this village"

"I wonder"

"Yes! In the first place, it's odd that there's such a big village on the mountain. How did you spread the land?

"Good luck to all"

"What happened to the demons in the mountains?

"Me and the villagers were exterminating it on a regular basis. Because the people in our village, usually magic, can use them all."

"... that's so awesome"

No, it's not even that impressive.

Why are you dropping your shoulders disappointingly? Odette is.

"He said I've just spent 150 years helping him adjust a lot. If the Duke Slay's house had just as many people alive, we could do this."

"Yuki."

"What the fuck?"

"Why don't you do the Patronus in the Duke of Slay's territory?

"I don't do it. If I did, I'd be able to keep an eye on The Magic Guild this time."

Besides, it was the villagers who actually switched villages.

I just "somehow" asked for my opinion and "somehow" helped.

I can't even ask you to do the same thing in another village.

"If they were from this village, they would have done it without me. Probably."

"What do you think? It is"

Odette snapped his neck.

"Absolutely on our side, even after we die, they remember us - didn't the villagers feel safe working because they had such a patron saint (you)?

"... I guess that's what it is"

"It's my opinion that you're human. Trust me."

"I see, because I'm a beginner in human beings. You should hear the seniors."

No. Yuki and I would be the same age.

Odette looked like she was in trouble and laughed.

Then I headed to the old castle where I used to live.

In the middle of the mountain lies the ancient castle where I was, at the end of the climb of the "Village of Fira", which is also ahead.

From here, it's hard to see hiding between trees...

"... I knew the roof was broken"

There's a big hole in the roof of the old castle. Around the hole, there are also burnt marks.

He was burned in sorcery. The work of the Sanctuary Church?

I held Odette and activated my 'flying' skills.

Kick the village roof and raise the trees to the scaffold.

Keep it up. We'll go over the old castle.

And when I went inside through the big hole in the roof, there was this big hall I was used to seeing.

"This is... your 'Throne Room' from your previous life?

"The villagers called you that funny. This is just a study room. This chair was just used by the blacksmith to repair it for me year after year."

The chair is crumbling under a broken stone.

And where I died. I can't even see the blood anymore.

"I guess it's more of a child protection room than a children's study room... Alice and her parents, Lyle and Remilia, have been studying letters and calculations here all along."

"How did you get the material?

"Because there weren't any books, sometimes, I flew up to Port Town with the one with good memory, memorizing the bard's song. When I left, I woke it up in letters and used it as a teaching material. If you're calculating... it has to do with magic. I used to make all kinds of learning tools by hand."

"What is it, that brilliant education? Which senior nobleman are you?"

"No, it's getting fun while the village patron saint is doing it... Follow"

That's a long time ago, too.

Lyle and Remilia are gone.

He killed me. I was reincarnated, and Alice followed me.

In those days, he said, 'We are righteous. You're the Demon King! The Church of the Sanctuary, which had gained momentum, is now contraindicated. The kingdom that stood for it was doomed, and' ancient objects' were lost.

"I don't know if I'm right. It's gonna change in 200 years."

"You're not mad that you were killed..."

"I don't know because all the people in" Sanctuary Church "are under the tomb. If he comes out dead, I'll kill him."

"But there are still remnants of The Sanctuary Church"

"I'll leave those opponents to the 'Magic Guild'. That's why I left" King of Spirits ".

"And... here's the King's Ride for you, right?"

"Not if it's what I expected. Beneath this room."

I left the Throne Room.

The corridors of the ancient castle are covered with rugged soil.

Because the roof is torn. I just haven't accumulated rainwater, have you?

Odette is walking next to me in silence.

I'm glad she's with us.

When I look at Odette, I know very well that this is 200 years from now.

This is where I lived in my last life, where I died.

I lived here, I remember 150 years.

This is how walking through the old castle makes me feel like I'm back in time.

But right now, it's Odette walking next to me. He's a friend of mine from this era, and he's Iris' best friend.

And I have Martha's handkerchief in my pocket.

It's what made me have it before I embarked on my journey.

Martha should be waiting for me to come home while she teaches the demon Remy how to cook.

Two beings tell me clearly that it's 200 years from now.

"I mean, I knew Odette was a good guy"

"Yes, what all of a sudden!?

"No, I'm glad Odette came with me,"

"... that's our line."

Odette blushed with a bright red face.

"Me too… that, what is giving me a valuable experience. As a magician."

"If there's a King's Ride, I'll have Odette look it up with me. Probably... it should be around here."

I stopped right under the Throne Room.

The location is in the middle of the hallway leading downstairs.

There is a stone wall in front of me.

"Ophelia said." The chief of the people learns, and at the bottom of the room is a wise souvenir. "

"The upper throne room is the study room, directly below it. Really? I see."

Or I don't have any other idea.

Lyle's guy, shouldn't we have twisted some more...?

"There are hidden doors here. The only people who know how to open it are me and the mayor of history."

"What is this room for?

"It's a file storage area for health care of villagers. Like who can't eat what and who's prone to catch a cold."

"You were the patron saint of the village at the root. You are."

"It's also a room to remember the dead guys. I don't know about humans before my great-grandfather. I just wanted to put it on the record."

That's a good story.

"And then Alice wandered off the lock, trying to confuse the parchment that wrote her own three sizes,"

"That didn't matter!

"You should be able to use the old path. I'll open it."

I hurt my fingertips and applied 'Magic Blood' to the wall.

Letters float up on the wall.

"─" Dean-Nosferatu and his promise to the oldest villagers ""

When I said my password, there was a hole in the wall.

My mouth opens enough for a few people to pass in line.

I built a magic light and then I pulled Odette's hand and went inside.

"... this is the hidden room"

Odette sighed a small.

Inside the hidden room, there was a large space.

Originally, there must have been a bookcase here. Now it's all taken away.

The villager files are put in a waterproof bag and stacked in the corner of the room.

The perfect alignment of corners and corners is definitely Lyle-Carmain's.

He cleaned up the room exactly, and then he took the bookcase somewhere.

"... Well, you wouldn't go in if you had a bookcase. This is (...)"

Occupying the room instead of the bookcase was a pitch-black armor.

About twice the size of a person's height. Almost identical to that "King of Spirits (Lord = of =) Ride (Phantom)".

The difference is, it's a giant wing growing on my back.

Made of thin metal, soft, and shiny.

Can it fly that there are wings?

The head has a full face helmet. Large, twisted corners to the left and right of the head.

How disgusting. The claws on both arms are also vicious.

If you get hit like this, even a knight with armor will blow up. Per horse.

"This is the 'King's Ride (Road)' for Yuki…"

"Oh. Alice's father, Lyle-Carmain's legacy."

There was a letter carved on the floor in front of the armor.

The letter up a bit to the left is definitely Lyle's.

What it says is short.

It's just...

"I give this to my stupid father, who planted an indelible trauma on one.

Don't let you die again. Don't let anyone kill you again.

To my Lord, I dedicate the King's Ride "Lord of Nosferatu"

"To do this... how hard did I have to do it? You are."

I'm getting a headache.

Did Lyle leave one of the 'King's Rides (Lord)' here so he wouldn't let anyone kill me again?

You're doing too much. Whatever it takes.

As the brave man who killed me, I dived into the "Sanctuary Church" and climbed up to be called a wise man - eventually betraying the "Sanctuary Church" and sealing the "Antiquities" and grabbing the "King's Ride (Lord)" and bringing it here.

Too much work, you.

If the bard sings as a story, they'll complain that it's too much to talk about. Not at all.

"Well, I guess Lyle didn't do it alone..."

"Your village people were amazing."

"Me and I, we forgot about the dead Patronus, and I wanted you to live easy."

Thank you. They raised you the wrong way.

Or their specs are too high.

"Honestly... they're amazing. You guys are."

I don't know where you died, Lyle.

I'll find your grave someday.

Well, it's not like there's any chance that Lyle and Remilia are immortalized by 'ancient magic'.

But I've... I've told you many times not to do anything dangerous.

Yet. When I come with you. Totally no more......

"This... what are you going to do? Yuki."

"I'll try it on because I can't help it"

"I thought you'd say that."

Under the magic lights, Odette held her mouth and laughed.

"If I can move it, I'll sneak it back to King's Landing. If it seems difficult, leave it here. Sometimes I come to study it."

"You don't tell me what's here. I'll keep a secret, too."

"Thanks."

"Just... if you can, please don't let me take part in the research"

That's what Odette said, and a formal thank you as princess of the aristocracy.

"If this' King's Ride 'is good for the world today, I want to know its accomplishments too." so that the people of the Duke of Slay can live a little easier. "

"Okay. So... I'll give it a try."

First, hack in "Magic Blood" and see how it goes.

If it looks safe, put it on and I'll try to move it.

Make sure it works even better... I'll see if I can fly with my wings this time.

"Ohhhhh!

I was thinking about that, and Dick jumped in through the hidden door.

It's urgent. From Mr. Ophelia's, Cliff is here!!

"... Cliff?

Cliff, the bat, and Garm, the former puppy, should have left it with Ophelia.

That cliff... here?

"What happened? Cliff."

"There's a demon in Torrias territory."

Dick said.

"It's a demon in a yoroi, the same type as that" Armed Auga "-! And they say there's a human magician-like shadow at the rear! The Tories are under attack.

Staying on my shoulder, with a voice, Dick told me that.
