It was really just a moment.
　What did the summoning team floating at my feet mean?
　Before I could figure it out, I was sent to the next different world.

''Oh, hero-sama!　Thank you for coming!

　The moment my eyes opened, I heard such a tempestuous line.
　If you look at it, the patsukin-bishoujo princess-sama crossed her hands as if she was thrilled and her eyes were sparkling.

''.....................Haha.
Oh, I love the look on your face when you don't understand what's going on!　Anyway, first of all, go to your room and get some sleep!

　With a sense of abandonment, as if summoned to another world for the first time, I was ushered into the room that had been prepared for me.
　The room is a rather opulent room surrounded by marble walls in the familiar Western style...a uniquely Western "style" fantasy.

''Please rest here for a while and calm down!
Oh, yes.

　The smiling princess closed the door and left me alone in the room.
　Then it took me about 10 seconds to regain my thoughts....

''What the heck?''

　Simultaneously with the screams.
　The room erupted in a massive explosion.

'What-what-what-what-what!
　What's going on, what's going on, what's going on, what's going on, what's going on!
　No way, no way, no way, no way, no way, no way, no way, no way, no way, no way!
　Pledge fulfilled!　Breach!　What the hell just happened?!

　After I finished screaming in one breath, there wasn't a trace of the gorgeous room left.
　Of course, this is because of my cheat getting out of control in various ways.

''Brave sir?　It sounded like there was a tremendous roar over there!
It's all in your head!

　It would be troublesome if the guards came, so I put a ward on the door that was barely left.
　If they come now, they might really just take it out on you and kill you.

　Hmmm...let's just calm down for now, me.
　Let's check out the current situation first.

　I was summoned.
　It's the same as always.
　Nothing has changed.
　Since the princess is, more than likely, a pledge in the middle of all this we should do her a favor.

　Yes, that's fine. That's fine.

　I'm summoned, I'm summoned, and there's nothing I can do about it.
　No matter how much I rage, that summoning team is a one-way street.
　No matter how unconvincing it is, I can't move to another world on my own.
　No matter how much I twist the law of cause and effect, incorporate the god of time and space, or use inter-world travel cheats, it's absolutely impossible.
　In a sense, my core pledge and summoning cheat ability will never be overturned in that regard.

　In other words, there's no point in thinking about what the pledge was in the previous world.

　It might be the fulfillment of the pledge, or it might be the breaking of it.
　The power to hold me together in that demon world is gone, so there's nothing I can do about it.
　If it's accomplished, it wasn't a "I will reign as the Demon King" pledge, that's for sure.
　It's a chilling thought to think that those people may have conspired against me, but I have to admit that I can't even take revenge.
　If you want to clear the rumors, you have no choice but to do it in this other world.
　You are not a child, so let's not ask for something that isn't there........yes.

"Shit..........seriously, the meat of an Ancient Dragon....

　What I regret is that I left the meat of the Ancient Dragon that I was about to process.
　I regret that I left the whole thing behind.
　Normally there is a bit more of an interval after the summoning team appears.
　How close to phase was I summoned to another world that didn't even have time to put it in the sealing beads!

　And....
　And.....
　No I can't even think about it.

　I mean, I'm such an a**h*le, you know?
　I can't believe you left your wife behind without meaning to.

"Cianne I can't do anything about it.

　It's not that I'm used to being resented, it's fine, but the fact that I can't even make excuses for it is still annoying...d*mn it.
　It would be nice if that guy summoned me for that, but I don't know how many years it will be in that other world over there.
　

　It's a different world now.
　I'm sure there's nothing I can do about it, no matter how much I regret it.
　Then I have to hope that they clear the current world and summon me from there.

　Anyway, let's hear what that princess has to say........



''So, we have a fortune telling result that the Demon King who was supposed to have been defeated by a brave man once came back to life!
Oh.

　After repairing the room with my craft, I asked the princess, who was very high strung, what happened.
　However, I'm going to ignore the situation as usual.

　After all, he was the Demon King until just now.
　Moreover, he was going to be the Demon King for the time being.
　It would be fine if you summoned me when I was in the mood for defeating the demon king, but there's no way I'd be able to get into it by being told to defeat the demon king now.
　I think I've changed my mind, but please don't give me this much of a break.

Then why don't you just let that brave man do it?

　For now, I'm going to say the questions that came to mind as far as I've heard the story.

''After the previous hero-sama defeated the Demon King, he returned to his world. I really wanted to summon that person, but I just couldn't make it work!
Hmm.

　A brave man left, hey........
　And the summoning afterwards didn't go well?
　Hmm, hmm........

''How long did it take the Demon King to come back after being defeated?''
About two months!

　Resurrection span, short.
　I almost thought I was going to crack up.

So, where is the Demon Lord?
''Deep in the Demon Realm, it's believed to be the Demon King's territory!
'How do I get to that magical world?'
There are dimensional gates that lead to the demon world around the world, so you should be able to get to and from those gates!

　He even politely prepared a map to tell us that the safest dimensional gate is here.

''You're really good at this, aren't you?
''The previous hero-sama asked me the same thing, so I've prepared the necessary items in advance!

　Kyarunn, and the princess who is a buriosity princess.
　Well, there's a part of me that's curious but.......I don't have any particular reason to refuse at the moment.

''Alright, I'll go take down the Demon King.
'Really?　Thank you!

　The princess holds my hand as if impressed.
　She gives me a smile that would make a virgin fall in love with me.

　After that, we had to leave.

''After you have defeated the Demon King, please return to the castle!
Yeah.

　I left the castle with a wave of my hand in a Texan way, thinking that that wouldn't happen if the pledge was fulfilled, though.
　I took a significant shortcut on the road that would take several weeks for a normal human's feet, with a contraction, and came to the ruins with the dimensional gate without any particular trouble.

''I mean, are you really troubled by the Demon King?　This world.

　Mostly, in an alternate world that is plagued by a demon king, abnormalities come to the surface.
　Monsters turn rabid, there is a sense of unrest in the city, the weather is rough.
　Until you come here, that's not the case at all........

''Ah, so that's the gate...''

　The designated dimensional gate was a stone gate in the ruins.
　A black fog drifted out from inside the gate, and the story that it was connected to the demon world looked true.
　Since it was also the boundary line between the demon world, soldiers and knights had built forts and other structures to heavily defend it.
　Of course, it's an inward defense against the monsters coming from the dimensional gate.

''You must be a brave person. Your early arrival........shall we go to the demon world as soon as possible?''
Yeah.

　I spoke to the gatekeeper and was easily ushered into the demon world.
　He told me that I should walk straight through the black fog, so I followed his instructions.

''Hmmm.......is this what the demon world is like here?''

　The demon world is usually marketed as a gloomy atmosphere.
　It's the same here. There are only dark clouds and rocky soil that look unpleasantly shaped as far as the eye can see.
　The miasma that makes it impossible for humans to live in the worst places is sometimes in the air, so it's better than that, but it's better than that.

''The previous demon world was like this too...''

　Tsk ... it's an uncharacteristic sentimentality.
　I hate to think I'll have to deal with this mood for a while.
　I want to destroy everything and feel better, but if I lash out at a time like this, I know I'll be more depressed later on....
　Ah, it doesn't feel good...

　I follow the direction indicated by the compass and use the shrinkage to move around.
　I also had a map of the demon world prepared for me, so I didn't get lost in the demon world.
　There were some monsters, but I didn't feel like being a warrior, so I passed them off.
　With only the recommended dimensional gate, we arrived at the Demon King's Castle soon enough.
　Well, it was still a road that would normally take several months to get there.

　Then we arrived at a hill where we could glower at the Demon King's Castle.

''What do you mean? That castle is........

　It's not on the level of familiarity.
　It's not because of the architectural style, or the similarity in greatness, enormity or grandeur.
　It's the very castle of the Demon King that I was in just a few minutes ago.

"Don't tell me this is a parallel world?

　Sometimes worlds with different histories branch off from each other and become different worlds.
　I was once summoned to each of these divergent parallel worlds.
　I wondered if that would be the case this time, but it was only for a moment.

''Sakahagi!''

　I didn't have time to turn around when a call came from behind me.
　A burning sensation boiled up along with the pain of something stabbing into my back with a zobri.
　A jet-black blade sprouted from his chest, as if it was coated with lacquer.

''Kahach........''

　I didn't mean to be caught off guard.
　
　I was almost defenseless and got hit by a surprise attack (backstab) from behind.
　Of course, I didn't die instantly, so I survived.

　I fall to the ground with no power, coughing up blood.
　The regeneration cheat activates the emergency regeneration on its own, so the wound is immediately closed.
　But I just sort of zoned out and rolled over on my back from my slumped position, without even trying to fight back.

"You, why, why....

　Instead of giving chase, the beautiful woman who was still carrying the jet black scythe was clearly reflected in his vision.

''Ha. What do you look like........''

　Most of them were out of my range in a single bound, right?
　Well, you got it working.
　Now's your chance to get revenge.
　Why hasn't he attacked me?

　Well, they reacted to the fatal wounds and triggered multiple auto-defense cheats, so they won't be able to hurt me anymore, but.......
　Ah, is your appraisal eye activated?　So you see the point in attacking us.

　But that being said why do you remove the scythe?

　Why would you ever lay down your weapons?
　You think I could kill you with my bare hands?
　He would come up to me unprotected like that and hug my head........
　d*mn it's soft and smells good. So it's a color trick.

.... stupid.

　What the hell, man.
　.... but well, yeah.
　I'm certainly a bottomless fool.

'You're right, Cianne,'

　It's been 3 hours and 12 minutes in my experience since the sudden separation.
　I was successfully reunited with the wife I left behind.
