--The actuality of the situation is that it's not a good idea to be able to have a good idea of what to expect.

　The official response to whether or not to accept the request from the demon king's army will be given after his majesty and his civil servants have agreed on an opinion during this recess.

　That is, the conclusion of the truce with the Demon King's army.

　The reason for Agat Ram's harm to the humans on earth, spoken by the Demon King Gandalf himself, does not contradict the information we've obtained so far.

　The fact that the history between the ancient magical civilization and modern humans included a life form created on the same principle as Loki's divine beast was disliked by the Demon King Ivaldi, the founder of Agart Ram, and that he no longer recognized the humans on earth as 'human'.

　Since the Demon King's War, they haven't attacked the earth - with the exception of the move against me - it's a natural decision to focus more on dealing with Agart Ram than the Demon King's Army.

''But to be relaxing in the middle of the Demon King's army headquarters.

　Garnett muttered dumbfoundedly as he sat down in a chair provided in the room.

　In the same way that the corridors and audience rooms of the Fifth Labyrinth were decorated in a palatial manner, this room also boasts a reasonable amount of luxury.

　I don't know what kind of purpose this room is used for, but I can clearly see that they put a lot of effort into welcoming us in a certain way.

'We've carefully checked that there are no strange gimmicks, so we can't just go back and forth to the base now, can we?
I know. I'm not saying I don't like it. I'm just saying that I didn't think it would come to this.

　Since me and Garnett are the only two people present in this room, Garnett is taking a breather with the same attitude as if he were at home.

　However, Adamant's sword remains ready to be drawn out quickly at any time.

''Your [Analysis], the 'Right Eye of Wisdom', Melissa and Ambrose's magic, and the skill pile of the guys the Guildmaster and the missionary group brought in. If there's still a trick that can't be detected after all this, then it's not surprising that we're all brainwashed when we enter the labyrinth.

　Garnett looked back at the current situation like that, moving his face and putting his hand on my right arm.

　The one extending from my shoulders, the one that is (...) naught (...), the raw (...) right arm that is still carefully boxed up.

...... right arm, still not attached to it?
'Yeah. From what I've seen, it's preserved almost exactly the same as it was right after it was cut down. I thought I'd bring it home with me once and have you analyze how it's preserved.
If I take my arm out, the effect might wear off. Yeah, it's really shrewd.

　The Demon King's Army kept their word and returned my right arm in perfect preservation.

　If I could figure out how they achieved this, it might lead to the development of a new product.

　As soon as I received my right arm, I began to think about it, and it was clear that I was really getting into the arms business.

It's a good thing you don't mind," he said.

　Garnett rested his weight tightly on the slender back and looked up at the ceiling, which was illuminated by white magical lighting.

You never explained your relationship with Alfazul. It's more important to us.
That's all right. That was just a place for me to give you information about Agat Ram.

　I also moved another chair to my left and brought it to the front of Garnett's front before sitting down.

'As Your Majesty said, there's still a lot of information that they know and we don't. It's enough to give us a foothold in clarification for today.
Haste makes waste, eh? That kind of hits home, doesn't it?

　Sullenly, Garnett says that and lets out a short breath.

　I take it as a sign that her questioning of me has died down, and now I ask her a question.

''Are you the one that was enough?
'What?　What are you talking about?
Information on Agart Ram. Was that enough for you to hear from Gandalf?

　Garnett shook his head and shifted his posture from sitting in his chair looking up at the ceiling to leaning forward and looking up at me with his cheekbones in his lap.

I'm satisfied," he said, looking up at me. I'm satisfied, because I know now that I can take them down without a care in the world. What I want to do and what I need to do as a knight is in line with what I want to do. It just doesn't get any easier.

　I can assure you that there is no lie in those words or in the fearless smile on his mouth.

　Garnet seems to be sincerely satisfied with the information about Agart Ram provided by the Demon King Gandalf.

''...... I see. I'm glad to hear that. It's hard for us to have any sympathy for you if you've got any room for sympathy.
You know. It's not easy to say who's the bad guy, when you're a knight of the silver wing. I'm grateful to be able to say that.

　I'm glad that the object of my revenge is also objectively a "presence to be avenged" - at first glance it seems contradictory, but if you think of it as my own, it's an emotion I can only accept.

　If there was a reason that he had no choice but to do this for unavoidable reasons, even if he fulfilled his revenge, the result might end up being incomprehensible.

　But if they don't consider you to be a human being and are even planning to eliminate you from the earth, they will not hesitate to beat your vengeance with all their might.

I'm sure you're more worried about the hunt for the demon king than me when it comes to revenge.　You're even continuing to be an adventurer to hunt the Demon King around, so how can you convince me to join forces with Gandalf after all this time?
'You mean Dustin?　...... That guy will be fine. He's not the kind of guy who would attack you indiscriminately if he saw you as a demon king, but he can act with proper priorities in mind.

　That's why his two names are Demon King Hunting.

　It's not indiscriminate slaughter of the Demon King as a target, but rather, it's the reason why his two names are because he can properly prioritize his priorities as a hunter.

　In the first place, Dustin has long ago grasped that the administrator of Athropolis (Fraxinus) carried the title of the Demon King, but he continues to use Athropolis as his base on that basis.

　Even if he is the Demon King, he understands that he must not take on Fraxinus and uses it as a stepping stone to find the Demon King who should be taken down with greater priority.

...... so Dustin would try to hunt the Demon King Ivaldi first, rather than the Demon King Gandalf.
Then it's okay. It's not fair to him if he's the only one who gets to throw away his vengeance. You don't think that's going to happen, I don't mind.

　Garnett's expression lightly relaxed with a little relief.

　Those of us who have vengeance as a fundamental motivation, I guess we still have our thoughts.

'So, I'm changing the subject. ......

　Just as the next topic was about to be broached, there was a light knock on the door of the room and a voice familiar to my ears was thrown at me.

''Good evening. I'm Ezell, may I come in for a moment?
