The Labyrinth Raids of the Ultimate Tank

"How do you protect the human city?

To the man who threw the question, Marius turns his gaze.

In the city...

In the midst of the Rudes enjoying the ball, Marius was confronted by one man.

Around Marius, the demons created by the man had been mutilated and had fallen.

Marius slips the knife into his sheath and then sees the man.

Man - His name is Valefar Gried.

He is one of the Seven Sins Demon Kings, the sixth man in the sequence.

The look gives the impression of a refreshing good man, but the eyes behind the glasses look down on people.

"Because my friends are human."

"Does the fall of the Demons mean they chose to play with humans?"

At the same time as he smiles softly, Gried appears behind Marius.

Marius turns his gaze only for a moment, then walks out.

"You look good in height, Greed."

At those next moments, Marius mutilated that body with his abode.

Gried's body rocks like a mist.

It's not the main body that's there. It was like a magically created phantom.

dull, Gried says with a laugh.

"I'm looking forward to seeing how far it works, Marius"

That's all I left to say, and Gried left.

Marius exhaled gently before removing one necklace from the kimono's chest.

"My fellow men, let me fight you, demon kings."

Marius exhaled small, then walked out.

After a week or so in the city, we called Seinlia to return to Avancia.

The place is the cathedral garden.

Surrounded by those who wanted to see Seinlia at first sight.

Riding Seinlia was me, Nin, Lilia, Lilli... and Kiglas.

"Why is Kiglas here?"

"I don't know. Looks like Rude's clan has been contacted."

... Exactly.

The request from the country that arrived in my clan also had the name of Kiglas.

As for the details, I don't know yet, but he wants me to bring Kiglas too.

... so there was also Kiglas. That's good for now.

"... Marius isn't coming"

"Marius? Who is he?"

"He's my clan subleader."

"Oh, is that so strong?"

"Sort of."

"Well, I'm looking forward to it."

Marius. I haven't heard from him in a while, but he suddenly contacted me through Hugh last night.

I'm going to the cathedral, so wait.

But wait, wait, wait. It's hard to come.

It was when an hour went by when it became a flurry square for people who wanted to touch Seinlia.

Marius appeared when Rye, who loved dragons, was definitely stroking Seinlia's scales.

... there are tons of paper bags in both hands.

He came running in, a full smile.

Kiglas opened her eyes when she saw it.

"Oh, you... cuckoo!"

"Just shut up for a second"

Before they said anything extra, Lilia put a knife in Kiglas.

Oh, that's a relentless blow.

Lilia thumbs up a lot when I look at her.

No, I do wish I hadn't spoken to my guardian, but it's too much.

Nin returns her thumb all the time.... well, no.

"Marius, it's not too late. Where have you been?

"Hey, sorry! The Avancia kids would have asked for a souvenir, wouldn't they? And, well, I had to buy it for the face of the clan!

"Then you didn't have to worry about it because you're holding it to the Griwls to some extent? Hey, Rude."

I was a little uncomfortable with Marius laughing

... what is it?

When I first met him, I thought he couldn't see the bottom of his belly.

I think I've found out quite a bit about Marius lately while I've been dealing with him for a long time.

Now, like back in the day, I felt the distance.

"Rude?"

"Oh, oh."

Nin asks again, and I panic to see Marius.

"Then it's time to leave. Don't worry about Manichia too late for your return to Avancia."

"It won't be just Manichia, though."

No, it is.

Or the Griul and the homunculus in the town, all left to Manicia.

Even the management of the clan.

We need to get back quickly and reduce Manichia's burden.

If I thought so, I immediately decided to get into Seinlia.

Unfortunately, Rye is coming this way.

Then he kept his head down.

"... I'm sorry, Rude"

"Huh?"

"I don't really trust adventurers. But thanks to you, I was able to protect the town. Thank you."

"... no, don't worry about that"

Returning that to Rye, he has once again bowed his head deeply.

Then we ride to Seinlia.

Nin's complexion gets a little worse as Seinlia rises to the sky.

Kiglas is new to riding but what do you think?

His legs were shaking, too.

Not really, you don't seem to like the high places.

When Lilia and Lily laughed with pleasure when they saw it, Kiglas was turning her face bright red and furious.

That was barking, but as Lilia tried to poke Kiglas' body, Kiglas was trembling and clinging to Seinlia.

Looking sideways like that, I saw Marius one way or the other.

He watched the city as he soaked his hair in the wind.

Those eyes were just a little sharp.

"Nothing?"

"... oh"

"Right. That's fine."

... Something must have happened.

But if you don't talk about it right now, I guess it's a problem that you can digest in him.

"Listen to me when you want to talk to me."

"... oh, thank you"

Marius looks this way and then loosens his mouth.

That would be enough for now.
