The Hero Who Returned Remains the Strongest in the Modern World

Side: Linford

The cup of china blue cocktails is emptied, and Linford goes on to mouth a served double of whiskey.

And he groaned with a sigh, making a status window appear in this bar that he could not recognize other than him.

"It now appears at the same time as gaining reflex skills... Condition Anomaly: Demon King's Seeds. My personality just got a little violent. No... shall I say that I have become faithful to my wishes and no longer choose the means"

He is the only customer in the store.

Where the bartender pulled into the back, he laughed mockingly.

"Demon King... you're out of your mind. No, but... maybe that's what I deserve."

Cook laughing, he goes on to say.

"Upstairs in the Vatican and destroying the order of the world is the name I deserve"

Side: Leila-Sacaguchi

"Princess! I'm not convinced! We are always with the princess...... that's what we've been ordered to do for a long time!

to Serafina's words. I shook my head left and right.

Since then, in one of the inns I have gathered the Guardians.

Otsuki Morishita and the rest of the world, after laying low, told her about the breakup as a disturbing molecule and the fact that she was going to Africa.

"Maybe this is the tide. I'm about to be treated as a disturbing molecule, and even if I belong to the Vatican in the present situation, it's imperative that Jiri be poor... and I'll leave the judgment to you."

"Judgment?"

I nodded cocklessly at Serafina's words.

"There are two ways. Will you be a robot who will only faithfully carry out Vatican orders... or will you leave the Vatican? In that case, it is certain to follow the path of bitterness… and even Solemn Qing. You decide what to do."

So the Guardians looked at each other and opened their mouths biting off their lips.

"We... don't know where to live but the Vatican"

That's right. I knew the answer.

"Even if you become a robot and do your job, you still have a high budget that will make things worse. Even following blindness can end up being solemn. Still... following the Vatican?

"Exactly. Still...... I don't know where to live other than the Vatican. If we get credit for it... one day we might be able to work in the same place as the princess."

Just a little bit, I have what I was expecting from Serafina and the others.

If they take their own choice to leave the Vatican, or I will do it again... with Daiki Morishima...

But apparently that's not appropriate.

I can't help thinking about the impossible future.

"... ok. Think about good aftermath later. Thinking only of the task at hand now. You got it."

So Serafina bowed her head to me with regret.

"Suspected of being a disturbing molecule… i.e. is this due to the lifting of the previous restrictions on the use of Longinus in repeated arbitrariness?

That won't be zero either, but Linford is the main cause this time around.

But I can't get Serafina and the others to understand where they've explained the braves and the other worlds, and it's very likely that Linford's spearhead will be right for them by letting them know it's unnecessary.

Perhaps so.

"While we were on... I'm sorry to hear that you suspected my absolute loyalty to the Vatican. If we stop the princess more..."

Absolute loyalty to the Vatican......

In the end... I think.

Serafina and the others are birds in cages.

Born in the Vatican, educated by the Vatican, and created to carry out the Vatican's mission, it's a fully purified, cultured, mass-produced robot.

No... and I laughed mockingly.

Is that with me?

In the end, I couldn't ask Daiki Morishi for help.

Unfortunately...... I guess that means the Vatican's 10-year education program was working perfectly on me.

"I knew there was only Shura's way... left..."

But... and I cut a cross in front of my chest.

I've already decided to go this way.

I decided to protect Serafina and the others. Then I have no choice but to push this path.

That's...

- In the name of God.

And -.

Disguised as a demon, I was walking a long long staircase leading to the shrine, with one hand Longinus.

Me in the eastern shrine and Serafina and the others in the western shrine.

If you crush the ritual of the Devil's Town Festival... the city of Yokohama will be hit by an earthquake, by tsunamis and hundreds of nights.

One thing, it's not my intention.

One thing, it's not fun.

- I don't know what I'm doing myself. I don't even know what I can do to make things better.

But there's nothing I can do.

Yes, there's no other way to take it than this. That's the point.

and that's where the dry laughter leaked out of my lungs.

"Huhu...... ahahaha......"

That's enough.

Thinking...... let's quit now.

- I am an abomination of vampires and heavenly wingers.

If so... the devil who invites one of the cities to destroy... a fallen angel might suit you too.

I go up the stairs further in a sort of blown out mood.

And so I went up the stairs, and as I dived through the birdhouse, Rin's voice reached my ear.

"The ritual has already begun, right? That was late. Executive attendance isn't the year, is it?

"Abeno Fai Night..."

The usual Nobu face in witch clothes.

With a knife in her right hand, she raised her long hair with a basil and her left hand.

"I'm sorry it wasn't you, Morishita?

……

To me, who stops silently on the spot, she has still asked with no expression.

"Hey, Leila-Sakaguchi? The truth is, you want to be on my side. I want to be with you, Morishita. Didn't I?"

……

So Abeno-hui night mixed some angry colors with her voice color.

"As usual, it's your rule. With the rationale of being an absolute matter of your jurisprudence... try to push it out of your fucking business, okay? Hey, why don't you break the Vatican rules? You're selling a place called Wagamama for fucking business, aren't you? I'm not killing characters without Gala."

I said as I shook my shoulders with Wana Wana.

"Tell you... tell you what I know!

"There's no way you know that. It's not sweet."

"... Huh?

"Because I'm not you. I can make some assumptions... but I don't know what's going on with you. There's no way I can tell."

……

"But I can assure you that's all. I'll say it again. The truth is, you want to be on my side. I want to be with you, Morishita. Didn't I?"

"... Shut up"

"Yeah, it must be loud. That's what I'm gonna tell you to sound like."

"... so I'm telling you to shut up!

"I can't shut up. Because that's the way it is."

……

"Hey, Leila-Sakaguchi? The point is, you don't know how to do this on your own, do you? Then the situation is very simple."

"Simple?"

"Japan is a strange country, isn't it?

"What are you talking about all of a sudden?

"It's a country that hates war. It's a tochi crazy country where people don't even admit to arming themselves in self-defense. More than a half-century ago, I was struck by a pathological allergy to sequelae."

……

"I don't know if you're a police officer, but you're going to build a prison? Even though we do not authorize any use of force outside the country where we are not compatriots, we do so in the name of policing for ordinary people in the country who are compatriots. No one complains about the very existence of the police. I really don't know what that means... it's a strange country."

"What are you trying to say?

"War is the last resort of negotiation. And those who want war are a very, very few of the more educated people in the developed world… At least there is no such thing as a man in the developed world who wants to go to war. The bureaucrats who assist politicians are excellent, and the people who choose politicians in the first place are not foolish, except for some of the poles. And the price of life...... you can call it national sentiment. If you think about returns and risks, very often war means a huge deficit."

"So you're saying what you want to say?

"And neither I nor Morishita want to go to war with you."

"Then I'd be glad to have you through here?

"I can't do that. The damage to the average person will be enormous. Morishita, you have a pure sense of justice. And I have the minimum job I was born as Abeno. 'Cause if I give up my job here, I'll just fall on the outside road."

……

"Final confirmation. Negotiations are broken. So it's good to move to the final stage, right?

"... Yep. That's good."

"Including you Morishita, we don't have unnecessary allergies to the means of war. We're not dreamers, we're realists."

"... you're going to do it?

"Yeah. The negotiations broke down. If that's the case, war is the only way to stay. The rules are very simple. Have them follow me if I win. And if you win, I promise you I won't do anything about it again."

That's how Abeno Fai set up the knife at night.

"You're quick and helpful. If we kill each other, we don't resent each other, do we?

"Superior. Kill me if you can."

I also directed Longinus towards Abenohui Night, and proclaimed.

"Let's get started"
