　Seras' reaction to hearing the name of his revenge target.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　It's a reaction that I had imagined.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　Well, I said 'f*cking goddess' and so on.

　I'm sure you have nothing to reveal.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　I told you the story of how I was sent by a goddess to the ruins.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　And I told you the story of my recovery from the ruins.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

"So I came across you in the forest.

　After listening to the story, Seras has a mysterious expression on his face.

"I didn't know that the Enclosed Catacombs in the Dark Forest was an underground ruin used by the goddess to send her discards to ......

　Apparently the name of the disposal site is not a major one.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　It seems to be known outwardly as an unopened catacombs.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　In a sense, though, it's a place that could be called a cemetery.

''The blue dragon stone was obtained from a package of corpses we found in the ruins. I heard that this is where they sent a brave man named Anglin the Great Sage.

　Seras has a strong reaction.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

''And that great sage, too, huh?''

I'm sure she was an eyesore to the goddess.

''I was the only one who was judged as the lowest grade of the brave,''

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

With all that power?

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

Apparently they decided to scrap the lowest of the low, based on past precedent.

　Because it used to be this way.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　Because it used to work like this.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　Allion's "history" of past data.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　It was a "precedent" that the Goddess had built up as she wished.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　A convenient history for the goddess - a precedent.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　There is no reason why the d*mn goddess would not use it.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

However, the sent Toka-dono has survived from the ruins of the discarded ...... Black Dragon Knights, where there had been no survivors until now, through the power of its 'state defective skill'.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

Yeah.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　Seras sarcastically lowered his gaze.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

'A failure caused by Goddess Precedentism, I suppose.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

'As it turns out, though, it's nice to know the true nature of the goddess early on. Even if my skills had been judged useful, they would have been used conveniently by the f*cking goddess anyway.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　Seras spoke with conviction.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

'I see why you want revenge,'

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

'What?　It's not a reason to be proud of people, is it?

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　I laugh.

'I don't like the f*cking goddess who discarded me and I want to hurt her to death. That's the only reason.

'So when the jokers stand in the way of revenge, when they stand as an obstacle to revenge - I'll be merciless in my judgment and overrun.

But that kind of self-serving vengeance doesn't suit you, a man of principle and righteousness. Do you?

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

No.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　Seras went around to the front of me and straightened his posture.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

'If it weren't for Lord Toka's help, I would have been killed by the Five Dragons on this day. I myself am not without feelings against the goddess of Arion at the moment. If my power can help you avenge your death...

'It seems that Seras Ashlein is no longer needed by the king he once was. My sword, dedicated to the Holy King, is now as good as gone......

If I may say so myself, revenge is not a compliment.

　You can't be the hero of a story that people praise.

"You don't think this is righteous revenge?

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

This vendetta is just the right thing to do for me. It's an unmistakable personal vendetta. For all intents and purposes, it's just revenge for me. I don't think there's any righteousness in it for Seras Ashlein.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

That's why I want to help.

As I said before, I have personal feelings for the goddess of Allion. As I said before, I have personal feelings for the goddess of Allion, but above all, you risked your life to save me. I would like to repay you for your kindness. I don't mind, as long as it's the right thing for you.

　Seras looks up.

　I'm not going to be able to say that I'm not going to be able to do that, but I'm going to say that I'm not going to be able to do that.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　I take a breath.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

If you're going to go that far, do what you want.

Yes, thank you.

　Benefit.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　In some cases, it is more than a contractual relationship through money.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　The person you hire for money is trustworthy.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　The person who hires you wants the compensation you are offered.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　So they work hard to achieve their goals.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　But there is one problem with a paid relationship.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　Those who are hired for money may side with the one who offered a greater amount of money.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　So, on the other hand, it can be said to betray easily.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　On the other hand, the relationship by loyalty and ingratitude is different.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　It is not influenced by money.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　Even if a large sum of money is hinted at, it's hard to shake.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　This requires a deeper "bond". ......

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　That bond is a chain.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　That's what I had in mind.

"Can we count on Seras Ashlein to provide us with the power we need?

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

I won't let you down.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　It wasn't that it wasn't there, it wasn't.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　The prediction that this might happen.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　The reason I went to help Seras when he ran into the Dark Forest.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　I saved him because he looked like my aunt.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　That wasn't a lie.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　It was real.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　But...

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

I was right on target, apparently.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　He also thought that this might happen if he sold his favor.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　A bond is a chain.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　Is carrying out vengeance the primary goal of who I am, no matter what I am?

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　I knew I was a scumbag.

　Evil.

"...... Sorry about that, Serous.

　As I walk past, I put my hand on her shoulder.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

'Toka, Lord ......?'

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　So, at least.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

I will eventually repay the favor I received from Seras Ashlein.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　Yeah.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　What I owe you, I will pay back.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　And for every favor I owe you.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　To resentment, even against.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　We rushed ahead.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　We decided to avoid Mills and take a slight detour to the northern demon cluster belt.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　We heard that there is a small village on the way.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　That will be our destination first.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　On the way, we decided to split up reasonably well.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　Depending on the information we got, we might get suspicious of the "duo".

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　However, I think the probability of being discovered is low.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　Selous is dressed differently than when he was at Mills.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　Most importantly, he has a different face now.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　The confusion of the Spirit of Light has already subsided.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　So he can already use the power of change.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　However, he can't change his face significantly from his original face.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　That's why I can't become "someone else's look-alike".

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　Now, Selous' face is different from Mist's.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　But...

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　What I see are pointed ears and a familiar, inhumanly beautiful face.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　Selous says that the others see me with a different face.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　In other words, I'm the only one who can see my original face.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　Apparently there's also this handy feature.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　I just have to be extra careful not to call my new pseudonym "Mithra" and my real name "Selous" when I'm in this state: .......

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　While I was thinking about this...

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

May I call you "My Lord" from now on, Mr. Toka?

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　Seras made such a suggestion.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　She paused and then continued in shame.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

'Do you remember the last time someone called your real name and I inadvertently responded?

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　I nod and answer.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　Come to think of it, there was.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　It was a nasty trick I set up, though.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

"I may inadvertently call you 'Lord Hattie' in the future when I should be calling you 'Lord Hattie'. ......

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　You've been paying attention.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　I'm not sure if it's a good idea.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

So I thought it would be a good idea to use "My Lord" as a standard term to avoid any misspellings: ......

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　So this is Seras's way of preventing it.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

Okay. That's it.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

Thank you.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　Seras bows his head.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

Well... 'My Lord' is a bit formal, don't you think?

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

I think I'll call you "Lady Toka" when we're alone, then. Would you like that?

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

Yeah, do that.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

Yes, sir.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　After a short walk, I said.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

'For the time being, I'll leave my back to Seras and Pigimaru.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　I just turn my head and say to Seras behind me.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

'Keep up the good work.'

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　Seras Ashlein responded to the Lord's call softly with a clear smile.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

'Yes, my Lord,'
