"A few days after the hero, Iori Amatsuki, escaped.

　The Kingdom of Onryn.
　Inside the royal castle that sits in the center of the royal capital, Breon, the post-processing was still being carried out in a hurry.

　In addition to the escape of the brave man, the magic stone and the national treasure were taken away from him.
　Furthermore, the troops that had followed the brave man had been wiped out, leaving one person behind.
　If you add in the investigation into the abyssal labyrinth that was halted there, there is a huge amount of work to be done.

　In such a royal castle, Leuzas Gilburn, who had survived and finished his treatment, was called to the audience room by the king's order.
　Having lost his right arm and his body's balance, Leuzas stepped unsteadily into the audience chamber.

　What awaited him there was a pursuit by the nobles who wanted to disqualify him.

　Why did the brave man escape?
　Why did the door to the treasure room open?
　Why was the chase unit wiped out?

　I'm not going to be able to say that I've answered that question.
　Even though he answered, it was a report that hid all the things that were not good for him.

　Still ignoring the noise made by the unconvinced nobles, Liuzas turned his gaze to the king.

''How do you intend to take responsibility for this blunder?

　The king, Gransilkreuz Onryn, who sat on the throne in the innermost part of the room, overruled the noise made by the nobles and opened his mouth gravely.

''I will take the brave man into my own hands--that's all I can do.

　Ryuzas said as he looked at the king from the front.

　Thirty years ago, he lost his brave men in the war, and Lucifina, who was the most powerful among the knights, also defected.
　Since then, the kingdom's national strength has fallen, and its war potential has been greatly reduced.
　There is still no one who is as good as Lucidus or Lucifina of the past.

　--You're going to be able to find out if there's anyone other than me who can capture that guy?

　I'm sure you're not going to be able to tell me that.

　After a moment of silence, the king said

...... Leuzas Gilburn, I am placing you under house arrest for ten days. As soon as your house arrest is over, you will make sure that a brave man is captured. If he does not intend to come back, I don't mind killing him. I'm sure you'll be able to find out more about this before the rest of the world discovers the existence of the brave men and women.
Ha!

　Responding vigorously, Liuzas walked out of the audience chamber.

''Your Majesty, why didn't you punish Liuzas!

　After he left, the remaining nobles protested to the king.
　You will be able to find out the best way to make your life easier.

"He is an old man, but he is still a hero. If you execute him, he will not escape the criticism of his people. Do you have the guts to do that?
............

　The king's words were not answered by the nobleman.

'You know that, don't you? We need that man in our kingdom now.

　It's true that Liuzas' presence in the current kingdom is significant.
　The nobles had no choice but to agree, and the place was dismissed.

◆

''Shit, shit, amatu, amatu, amatu......!''

　Returning to his own workshop, Ryuzas erupted with the anger he had been suppressing.
　He smashed the equipment that was lined up on the desk and punched the desk with force.
　Even the blood dripping from his fist was hateful.

　It's all because of Amatsuki Iori - Amatsu.

'Captured?　Of course I'm going to kill you, of course I'm going to kill you!

　I won't forgive you," she said over and over again, like a curse.

"I won't forgive that woman either.

　You don't know the greatest magician in the kingdom, Luzus Gilburn?
　There's a limit to how much fun you can have with him.
　I don't like it, I don't like it, I don't like it.

　I don't like it. I don't like it.

"I know the face. I've memorized their magic. I'm not going to let them get away with it. Next time I'll do my best to get rid of him.

　The first time I was caught off guard.
　The second time, I wasn't prepared enough.
　Then the third time, I'll make sure I'm fully prepared and smash it.

"Revenge is what? Nah, nah, I'm the one who's going to get revenge. I'm going to make you guys regret it and I'm going to kill you. ......!

　The look of those guys looking down on themselves.
　It's not just a matter of time before you get to the point where you're going to be able to get your hands on it.

　Remorse?　
　Make them apologize?
　I'll kill you?

　I'll make you apologize?

"Based on their position, I'd say they're probably headed for the Allies. "So, we need to take care of them.

　I won't let them get away no matter where they go.
　With an ugly smile pasted on his face, Ryuzas began to prepare to kill Iori and the others.
