As Takht was fighting, Chiffon and the others were advancing through the cave when the Water Ripper Devil interrupted them.

''Noi-chan. Please!

...hmm. Shadowbinding.

I got it!　Continuous slashing!

I didn't beat you!　Charge slash!

Noah blocked the movement and Chiffon and the others were repeating the battle to stop it, and suddenly Arleigh opened her mouth.

''...It's getting kind of sad.''

It's a perfectly good point...

''Let's talk about that sort of thing when we can take down this enemy with ease, shall we?

You're right.

Even without Noah, Chiffon and the others could take down the Water Reaper Devil, but it wasn't going to be this easy.

Once again recognizing Noah's strength, the love fire escorting the red flower girl warned her.

''I'll be back!''

Thank you. Koibi-chan. Let's go. Both of you!　Noah, please do it again.

Hmm.

After a series of battles with the Water Reaper Devils, Chiffon and the others reached the prison.

''Prince Finist!''

The girl with the red flowers had a handsome blonde prince sleeping in the corner of her eye.

And in the same prison, there was another woman in chains.

'What about you guys?'

I'm here to save you.

Arleigh, who is dressing up, receives a cold look from Chiffon and the others.

''Yes...I am Finist's fiancée. Please help him quickly.''

I'll take care of it. Uh, Chiffon. Give me the keys.

'Chiffon, ignore Arleigh and open the d*mn door.

Uh-huh.

Arleigh is in shock, but Chiffon unlocks the prison. Then the girl with the red flowers goes first to Prince Finist.

'Prince Finist!　Open your eyes!　Prince Finist!

'...Finist covered for me...I've been cursed by a demon...I haven't been awake for a long time.

'Oh no...we finally meet again...Prince Finist!

Tears flow from the red flower girl, and tears fall on Prince Finist's cheeks.

Then Prince Finist shines and opens his eyes.

''You...are...the red flower...''

'Yes!　Prince Finist!

It was good~

The next moment when Siphon was impressed, a metallic sound resounded inside the prison cell.

''Tact's predictions really do come true...''

If you hadn't heard, it would have been a close call...

Miranda and Love Fire had stopped the claws aimed at the red flower girl.

''What?''

Why?

Chiffon and Arleigh are surprised. It was their fiancée who attacked them.

''Tch!　Get out of the way!

I'm not retreating!　Hey!

Love Fire plays the attack, and Miranda builds up a large sword and swings at it.

''Charge slash!''

Tsk!

The fiancé backed up and dodged the charging slash. When Prince Finist sees this, he speaks.

'So...yes...I was...attacked by you that night.

Oh. That's right. I cursed you. I didn't think human tears could lift the curse. Well, I won't forgive you for getting in my way.

'What?　I don't think you'd be more forgiving if you interrupted an emotional scene.

Totally!

In the midst of a flurry of activity, a third person's voice comes in.

'Looks like you've failed.

It was an old man with a cane, a demon.

'I'm not done. I'm going to kill them now.

"Are you trying to ruin Master Bael's game?　Master Lukifugus will erase you.

"...tch!　I get it.

The woman who is engaged to be married gets out of jail. Then Prince Finist exclaims.

'Wait!　I don't know who you are!　What have you done to my fiancé!

The old devil replies.

"My name is Agares. And this one is part of me, Agares Hawk.

'What did I do to your fiancé?　I'm pretty sure it's attached to me!　You know how easy it was to get a hold of that poor girl who was trapped in a jealousy trap?　Hahaha!

You!

Do you regret it?　You want to kill me?　Ready?　Come on!　Finist. Try killing your fiancée!

Prince Finist grits his teeth in frustration. Ignoring Finist, Agares ignores him and speaks to Chiffon and the others.

This game. You've won this game. The next time I'll fight you myself.

Then, Chiffon and the others received an info.

'We have completed the event quest 'Rescue Prince Finist'.
The event quest 'The Battle of Agareth' has been triggered.

Event Quest "The Battle for Agareth" : Difficulty Level D
Period: Today at 21:00
Participating NPCs: Barbayaga x 3, Prince Finist
Protect the village from the raid boss, Agares.

This time, you will allow us to destroy the village. You'll have fun entertaining us.

With that, Agares disappeared with his fiancée.


Chiffon and the others released Prince Finist and walked out of the cave to join me.

'Good work. Can you tell me what happened?

I heard about what happened in the prison. Okay....so that's how you portray Finist's fiancée...and the enemy came with Agares.

Like Bael, he is a demon under the control of Lukifugus. He's the demon that is said to appear, riding a crocodile and carrying a great hawk in his hand. I guess they chose it because of the falcon connection.

'Miranda is well aware of this,'

'I'd heard about it from Tact beforehand. It's funny how only your fiancé is conscious in that situation.

Well, now that you mention it, that's... That's a despicable attempt to take advantage of a grown woman!

I thought I had a general idea of what Arleigh had done in the cave. Then Prince Finist, who was being supported by the girl with the red flowers, said

''We have to... protect... the village... gu...''

It's going to be painful. I'll use a clear or something, but it doesn't work. I don't know what to do... and then three barbayaga appeared.

''Whew. I see you were able to save your finisher in one piece. You're good at it. Boys.

Grandma Yaga!

Shut up.

Prince Finist was blown away by a broom.

''Guhaha... what... so...''

'Don't call me old-fashioned and casual. Besides, you brought this on yourself. It's our trouble, and we're the ones who got in the way.

Well, because of Prince Finist's affair... or is it not an affair because he's your fiancé? As I'm thinking about something unimportant, Barbayaga takes a test tube out of his pocket.

"Here's the pills. Drink it.

It's...a potion. Some kind of green liquid is boiling and emitting pink smoke. I don't want to take that.

I... no!　I don't want to drink that one!

Prince Finist fled.

'I won't let you go.

The Barbayaga hits the ground with his broom and Prince Finist appears immediately from the opposite direction. That's what I tasted when I was a Wood Golem.

"This is our forest, my friend. Bear with me.

Help, help!　Gahhhh!

Prince Finist's scream echoed through the forest.
