　Back in time, when Iguza and Yomi were beginning their battle, Ophir and Trubeau were also meeting with an old man who was probably one of the demon tribe.

　Ophir and Trubaugh were also meeting with an old man who was probably one of the demon tribe.

　The old man was small and poked his cane, and at a glance he did not look like a demon tribe that sold strong vitality, but this was, after all, the middle layer of the "Zekkai," or "Black Zekkai," where "dirt" swirled around.

　Moreover, this was a laboratory-like space with a clearly different aspect from the usual.

　Naturally, there is no way that a frail old man could be in such a place, and Ophir, without any distraction, thrust his axe at the old man ...... or rather, the demon tribe and said, "Hey, old man.

The old man said, "Hey, old man. I only have one question for you. Where are you taking my kidnapped friends?

"Oh, you mean that saintly woman who was crying 'ouch, ouch, ouch'?

"What?

　After looking into each other's eyes, Ophir turned his indignant gaze on the demon tribe, "You ......!

　Then, the demon tribe smiled again with a weird smile, but said somewhat regretfully, "You were one step too late.

We were too late. That little girl is no longer here.

You didn't kill her, did you?

　With a thud, he smashed the floor stone with a rock.　Ophir, who was shattering the floor stone with a stone poke, was chided by Tolbaugh, who was standing next to him, who told him to calm down.

　But the demon tribe's words sounded as if they had just killed him, and Ophir's anger was about to reach its limit.

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

I wish I could have killed him. I wish I could have killed him, but just when I was getting ready to do so, Patty interrupted me. What a d*mned boy. ......"

　It seemed that Elma was still alive.

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

I'm not sure why you're worrying me. ......

　The demon tribe's face contorted into a wide grin as it told the relieved Ophirs, "But," it said, "you're going to show up in our place.

And not only a saint, but a goddess as well,.......

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

What a creepy old man you are. ......

　--The first thing that comes to my mind is that I am not a good person to be around.

　Tulbaugh said, blowing the floor right next to the demons to pieces with a blade of wind.

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

Get out of here, you're an eyesore."

'...... way?　You think you can show mercy to this Tougen?"

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

　--Tougen.

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

　That seems to be the name of that demon tribe.

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

　Tougen's words, Tolbaugh said in a very cold tone.

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

You call it mercy?　Don't make me laugh. I'm saying you're not even worth killing. Now get the hell out of here and never show your ugly face again. And don't ever show your ugly face to me again.

"Oh, wow, the old lady is even more determined than usual today. ......"

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

I certainly don't want to die here either. But since you saved my life, I must give you something in return. --Ah, yes. I will set you free. Come out.

　While Ofir and the others were raising their eyebrows, a boy of about five or six years old appeared from the back of the laboratory at Togen's call.

　It was a boy of about five or six years old who appeared from the back of the laboratory at the call of Tougen.

　Or perhaps he had already been subjected to some kind of experiment. ......

　The boy was approaching us with a dazed look on his face, while Ophir and his friends were wondering why he was there.

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

　The first time I saw him, I thought he was a good man.

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

Don't worry. He is just a human child. I don't feel the presence of evil.

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

I don't feel the presence of a demon.

　In the meantime, a boy comes up to Trubaugh.

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

　The boy was still staring up at him.

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

I brought the little boy from the city for my research, but I had no use for him. I brought him from a man's town to study him, but I had no use for him. You can have her.

"You took her, didn't you?"

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

"Well, don't be so gullible, red-haired saint. I'll just take her with me if you don't want her. Now what do we do?

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

　At Tougen's question, Trubaugh looked at the boy silently for a moment, then nodded and said, "Well, that's fine.

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

I will take care of him. If you've done what you have to do, get the hell out of here.

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

Yes, I'll do that.

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

　After nodding, Tougen turned his back to Ophir and the others and began to walk away.

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

　The actuality is that they are not going to fight.

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

　Ophir, who was completely taken aback by the news, said, "Hey, man," as he carried his axe on his back, "Are you really going to take him out?

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

Are you really going to take that guy?"

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

Of course not. I'm not going to leave a little kid like that in a place like this.

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

　After saying this irritatingly, Tolbaugh kneels down on the floor, leaving Ophir to sigh.

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

What is your name, you?"

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

　And in a soft tone of voice, I asked the boy his name.

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

　--Pan!

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

PUN!"

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

　At that moment, the boy exploded.

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

　Without warning, he rained blood as if popping from the inside.

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

"--Hyahyahyahyahyahyahyahyahyahyahyah!"

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

　At the same time, a deafening laugh echoed.

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

　Yes, it was Tougen.

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

　As Ophir and the others stood there in a daze, Tougen, who was supposed to have left, had returned surrounded by many children, wondering where he had come from.

I am a meat doll," he said.　My meat puppet.

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

You old bastard!

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

I'm sure the goddess didn't notice. It is natural. I'm a puppet, and I'm a super puppet, and I'm a puppet in the same form as the living. Did you really think he was still alive?　Too bad!　He was already dismembered!

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

　Hyah-hyah-hyah!　Tougen laughed again, and Tolbaugh, whose head was stained red with the boy's blood, slowly stood up.

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

　And then...

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

　"--Zugan!

　She caved in the floor under her feet and announced this while wearing a storm all over her body.

"......I take back what I said before, demon. What you were not worth killing or keeping alive was not worth killing or keeping alive. What you did not have was the value of being in this world.
