Returning to the villa, Alessandro was confined to a single room, used by the royal family.

I need to speak to His Majesty the True King and to my father, Sir Leold, but now that Millin has been exposed to different worlds, I understand that it is one of the greatest importance of the kingdom and not when it annoys me with personal matters.

I'm not incarcerated anything, but in the meantime he's been thinking back about things since he noticed them in the lab in Gymon.

What did Jamon say then?

"Hey, listen to me, I'm surprised. You don't have Alessandro himself.

By the way, Alessandro just didn't know what he was talking about. But today, when that human bomb exploded and blew up in front of me, and I started going back to the venue, I was perfectly intact. I don't believe it. I suppose that around the entrance door, it didn't collapse against the explosion because it was originally solidified inside with metal or something to draw in monsters and its interior was pretty sturdy too, but there's no way my body can withstand that big explosion. When I used to fight monsters, I just got lightly kicked and the flesh ripped and the blood almost came out. That explosion is too intense for such a vulnerable self.

(That's right! What happened to the wound then?

Take off your clothes and check for the old wounds that should have been on from your belly to your chest. Not at all. Beautiful skin like I've never had a scratch or anything since I was born. Now, I'll take a good look at my hands. Is this really my hand? I feel like the shape of my nails, the length of my fingers, it's somehow not my own.

So whose the hell is this body?

I remember those wizards I was with when I was resurrected or I was bringing them with me, the squire I was in that venue. Expressionless and silent, but also teamwork and very strong. Challenge that dreaded enemy resolutely, without fear. Isn't that behavior because you know you're immortal? Then that one was made by that wizard, not a crop person, or so it seemed.

And that wizard said at the end that he wasn't human again.

'You're not human, you can say it well. Forgive me. For more information, ask this child - number 14.'.

In other words, I wonder if I am also his work and an artificial man with Alessandro's memory and consciousness that will not hurt or die.

After saying that, he was out of breath, and the child named No. 14 had been pulled up with him to that hall, and he couldn't ask for more details, but not if he was immersed in such a sentiment. Milin is being caught. If this immortal body helps, it's a ship across the street for Millin's rescue.

My arms are unfortunately the same as before, and they don't even reach the feet of Margaretta or Viscount Cyber, but if this body can be a shield, maybe they can take me.

There the guards raise their voices outside the door.

"Alessandro, are you there?

"What. You can come in.

"Yes, actually, if you catch what you were trying to break through the walls, you're a young man, and you're here to tell Alessandro the word number 14. However, because it is suspicious, I asked Alessandro once and thought I would cut it and throw it away if I didn't know.

Young man? Isn't that the man who temporarily suppressed Millin's decapitation, who was picking on Jamon then?

"I don't mind, I'll see you. It could be merit in today's venue. Bring me.

"Yes, I did.

After a while, along with the noisy man's voice, I heard a guard pulling up.

"Get off me! Because I can walk myself!

"You don't have to walk on your own! You're trespassing, can you be more adult! Without Alessandro's word, we'd be cutting it off!

"Heh-heh.

Sounds like a pretty noisy guy.

"Dear Alessandro, I have reported that we have taken one trespasser, may I?

"Thank you. You can follow me in.

"Yes."

A guard with a man comes inside. I don't remember my face clearly, but it's still the man from that time, even from the looks of it.

"You're the man who ordered the witch to execute His Highness Millian Rune and refused to do so today.

"Ah, yes. Yes, I am. No, I am a king, so I can't believe I have His Highness in my hands.

"Good, that was helpful then. If you hadn't refused me then, that wizard-- Jamon wouldn't have stood up either. Of course, I'm relieved to think you left those two on the truncator. Guards, you may step back now. As you heard, this man..."

"My name is Deekichi. He was a former apprentice of Jamon.

"Dirkichi is also a credit in today's battle. It's okay."

"But the witch doesn't know what kind of hand she's going to use, so Captain Margaretta ordered me to be careful.

"Like the enemy you fought today, if this man planted a bomb on you and you came here to assassinate me, you'd die in an explosion, too. Unfortunately, I'm an immortal swordsman, so I guess I'll be fine. Will you die instead of me?

"Oh, no..."

"When I figure it out, why don't you come in with a guy like this again, or you go back to security.

"Yes!

The guards fly out.

"You were, you were intact when you got caught in the explosion. So you realized something was wrong with your body?

"If you were a wizard's apprentice, you would know nothing about my body. Tell me what you know.

"Oh, I don't even know about the skill of the master who was making dramatic strides for some reason since I was broke, too, but from what I've heard on number 14, you -- you've been copied Alessandro's memory and consciousness, you're an automaton. I'm not human.

"─ Was it still so?

"You seemed somewhat noticed. Then go with me to the rescue of Your Highness.

"Is there a way to help Millin?

"I don't know the truth. But to a man named Largo, that's when he left behind. If you ask Samael, you can only manage to go to a place called eternal prison.

"You were, don't worry. The story must be addressed to His Majesty the True King.

"Then you're in trouble.

"What?

"I thought I'd go help His Highness with you.

"With me? Why."

"What you think is that anyone in this country knows, that you are a guardian who loves His Highness the sister more than anyone else. I would not spare my life for Your Highness. Didn't I?"

"Of course. I wouldn't spare this life if I could help Milin.

"Besides, you don't actually have life. I don't feel guilty for abandoning you when you have to. Even if neither of us could.

"Is that why? But with the help of a stronger one, there would be a better chance of success. With Margaretta, for example?

"That's not a good idea.

"Because if you take all those strong ones, they'll be on guard. - Plus, I'm out of my grip.

"You want that much of a handle?

Alessandro stared at Daikichi's face. The anxiety to set that handle seemed as if I was until I got into the Demon King's Castle.

"I can do as much as I want, but I'll tell you the whole truth because you say that. Actually, I'm a sinner who committed a great sin under the heavens. But I'm not guilty of killing someone like that or anything. I was just trying to deceive myself by taking the name of a great man. But that's the big crime under the sky, which means he's on the verge of death, and he's on the run. But I was wondering if I could help you to write off that much sin. I have a woman I like, I want to marry that guy, I really do.

"Really? It's hard not to be able to marry a woman you like, okay? Let's both go help Millin. I guess I'll have to go find someone named Largo to do that. Do you have any idea?

"I also asked number 14 that the kingdom brave man that was taken with the witch today is the same automaton as you.

"What a brilliant move..."

"That's right, just the data in the contents is different. From what I've seen, you're made of the same parts as that number 12. So if you want to do it, you should be able to do the same thing as him.

"Was it? So how do we get through to something called Largo?

"Apparently it was Largo who was manipulating him on No. 12.

"What do you mean?

"That number 12, they say the street name is Lagon, but there must be a clue to that where he was, and number 14 was taken care of in the Lagon Inn with Oyaji. The place was told. Ask him there and he says he has company. I hear that Largo has been protecting His Highness so much while you were gone. On top of that, they even took my men and automatons. That's why he said he was sure he was going to help. I think if we take Samael's information, he'll be with us.

"All right, then we'll both go. If no one has a hand in going to such an outrageous place and doesn't know how to get there, my mother might give up on Milin and not be able to go after him.

"A mother abandons her daughter?

"Before I was a parent, my mother was king of this country. He's a benevolent man who never says anything impossible to the people about himself or his family.

"Let's be fools! We, the people, are putting the future of this country on you, especially that princess, our future!

"Deakichi...

"I may never come back when I get there, but if we go and just the princess comes back here, Elna - because I believe my woman can live happily ever after, so...

"Okay. I'm sorry. Your mother and sister will be delighted to have a people like you.

"You risk your life, too. If I have to, I throw everything away to help the princess.

"Absolutely. I didn't expect this to work with someone like you, but if you're a big sinner under heaven, there's no shortage for them. Let's go to Largo!
