Unexpectedly, Sophia looked up into the sky.
It is the bright blue sky that extends into sight, the sky as usual.
I can't even feel the suspicion and dust.
"... Sophia? What's wrong with you?
I turned my gaze to my voice and my husband Klaus was looking at this one with serious eyes.
It is the kind of eye that already understands what happened, even though it says sothing is wrong, etc.
For a mont, nothing, I tried to answer.
And that is true.
Nothing's actually happening, and there's not even a precursor to it.
But.
"Well... I had a bad feeling about it. It's just an idea..."
"... right"
That's what I said and nodded, it didn't seem like it was just a gavel.
One way or another, it's like showing consent.
"Well, it doesn't seem like it's my fault either."
"Oh, you too?
"Oh.... apparently I don't even have ti to slow down"
Klaus arrived here earlier.
Unless it's true that the two of us are to bla, it ans we don't even have ti to rest like this.
Although I didn't seem to feel comfortable resting from the start when I arrived and was on guard like this.
"Should I report it?
"... No, it won't be necessary. It's only a matter of uncertainty. Besides, he wouldn't have told ."
"... so is that."
For a mont, I thought it might be cruel to want exactly the sa thing back then, but soon I realize that I was more wrong.
Sure, it wouldn't be the sa as it was back then, but if I were to beco so dull that I couldn't feel this degree, I wouldn't have been elected to the Demon King Crusade back then.
It was made with all sorts of thoughts, but at the ti we were seriously going to defeat the Demon King, and we had the kind of people we thought we could defeat.
Though...... if I said it as a result, I guess I could say that was overconfidence.
"By the way, I'd like to ask you one thing, what are you thinking about this one?
"Right, I heard the details earlier too, so I'm halfway into it... but honestly, I feel pretty nasty. It was like that ti, you know."
At that ti, I imdiately understood when that ant.
Until now, Sophia's life can never be described as smooth and full of sails… on the contrary, it has only been a failure, but there is only one such thing as the biggest and shareable with Klaus.
That was when we were acting as Demon King Crusaders… perhaps when we experienced the greatest setback of our lives.
It was when we fought the Demon King and failed miserably.
These are the Sophias who did not go to the Demon King's Crusade and founded the Kingdom of Radius along the way, but actually fought the Demon King only once.
I was acting differently from the braves for one reason or another, but it was a demon king's trap and I had to confront it.
Most of all, Sophia and the others were in a good mood at the ti.
Because we knew that whatever we thought, we couldn't just go through the demonic realm.
So if we can take it down here, when it's all over, we challenge the battle... from the results, Sophia and the others didn't have hands or feet.
Obviously, the Demon King was playing, but still couldn't make him suffer one scratch.
Though there were no brave n... it was enough to break the hearts of Sophia and the others.
Still, I didn't stop traveling, and along the way I flipped an anti-flag against the kingdom of Veritas and decided to establish the kingdom of Radius... but I'm pretty sure one of the reasons for that was the matter.
Because even if we needed to help those who were being abused, we didn't need to build a kingdom of Radius at that point.
It is certain that we have reached a limit to the outrage of the Kingdom of Veritas.
But speaking of which priority should be given to the Demon King, he was undoubtedly the Demon King.
Yet we have chosen to build a nation, so it is certain that there was fear and escape in the minds of the Sofias.
And I'm sure they knew about it.
So...
"... if things like that were the other way around, would we be able to fight them?
"Of course not? That's when we've been sharpening our powers.... That's when we did escape. But the result is now. That's why this ti I'll try to protect you without running away"
"Well... if you can do that, fine."
"I an, now's the ti, right?
"Huh?"
If he tilted his neck without knowing what it ant, Klaus moved his expression even though it was rare and not in the middle of a fight.
I lift that mouth and smile invincibly.
"We never ran away from that evil dragon. Well, I couldn't win... but it doesn't change that I didn't run away. It was done once. Then we can do it again."
"... right. Yeah... let's do that"
"Oh."
I nodded back at Klaus, who nodded, and this one had another invincible grin.
Although it may have taken on a slightly unnatural form, it is also a statent of determination.
The unpleasant feeling doesn't fit, but rather gets a little stronger.
But Sophia turned her powerful eyes toward the sky so that she could never lose it.
"Well, let's say we start"
Not to tell anyone, but the Demon King groaned.
Lift its mouth up as the thin darkness spreads.
"... finally. That took a long ti."
"Right. Sure, I was supposed to start the week early... but I found it interesting."
"Funny thing......?
"Oh.... apparently my power increases when I give man fear or despair"
"- Beco!?
The Demon King watched with pleasure as his eyes opened to surprise.
I returned the reaction as expected, and it distorts the mouth.
"You... are you kidding ...!?
"Oh. It's the sa as you, but I guess it's not yours. Probably... just like that one."
"... eh"
A murderous gaze is directed at the demon king, who looks good at sothing.
But for the Demon King, it's the sa thing as expected, and it's fun again.
At last, when you leak a laugh, you turn your face toward it as it is.
"From the mont this power beca available, I wondered if... Gosh, this might as well be nad his successor rather than the Demon King"
"You......!
Now it is ti for a clear gaze to be turned, but the Demon King shrugs his shoulders boringly.
Like I made a fool of myself, I humd my nose.
"You've got to be kidding , don't be so sure. There's no way I can succeed him."
"... naturally"
"What you think and what I'm saying probably ans sothing different... well, fine. It doesn't matter."
"Hmm..."
When you snort to agree, it has turned its gaze to encourage you to be ahead of the word.
"So you're saying you were ready to boost your power?
"Ha, no way. I took a lighter look, but you weren't anywhere near what would be my opponent? You don't have to do that on purpose."
"... So what were you doing?
"Having said that, if we have the opportunity to increase our power, should we use it? I'm a businessman, but I don't know if I can beat you when I get my full strength back. Then we should boost our strength a little bit now."
"Prep is prep but you an prep for it...... still, you've changed"
"It just changed the way we did it. I haven't changed as much myself."
That said, the Demon King walked out.
Footsteps continue a little late and two minutes of footsteps linger on the spot.
"Co on, the mont is here. Please welco with a round of applause. In the na of despair and fear, it deserves to honor ."
Hands spread with play-dyed motion, monts, dim darkness cleared.
It was the pale sky and the dazzling sun that extended into sight… beneath which the township inhabited by man is spread.
The Demon King looks at it and opens his mouth wide...
"Scratch it - the mont of the demon king's resurrection"
To the world, as he proclaid, and so he told them.
