What was the fight for?
　"We'll come together after a shaky fight.

"Anyway, we fought well.

　I would like to congratulate Radey and his friends who were probably in the line of fire.

It's a good thing you fought against the Ida of Heaven and Earth. It's a good thing you survived against one of the strongest four heavenly kings in the history of the demon race, without a doubt.

　That was enough to make me proud.

'But...'

　Radey says, somewhat unhappily.

'I don't know if we can call this stuff a win...!　All the time, that side was overwhelming us. At best, we were able to take a shot at them with a 'decapitation'.......and I'm not at all convinced of the way the enemy disappeared......!
''What was that giant hand that came down from the heavens, don't you think...?''

　I say as if to cover Sesha-san's question.

''It doesn't help to think about what we don't know,''
But...?
I don't have a choice.

　For my part, I don't want to pursue the question of whose hand that giant hand was any further.
　It's going to be a pain in the ass.

It was a brilliant 'break off'.

　Mr. Arantzill also comes by there.
　What is this guy doing here after all?

"You've mastered the sky. You've mastered it yourself.
'I'm afraid so!　It was all because of the advice you gave me, Mr. Arantzill!

　Huh?　Did you do that?

This is the ultimate technique of the slash, along with the Splitting Skies. It's the ultimate in slashing techniques.

　Taking over the explanation........
　The simple cutting power of "Sokku" far surpasses that of "Ryaku Kuu", and the slicing power is so sharp that it has reached the point where it even affects space.

　However, in actual combat, the ultimate cutting ability is not required, and it is an extremely fuel-efficient technique that consumes too much aura.
　The efficiency of using aura and the wide attack range of Searing Sky has been overpowered by it, and it is said that its users have died out.

It's not easy to handle a blade that cuts too much. So the Sora was branded as a flawed technique unsuitable for actual combat. You have to pull out such a technique to counter the Ida of Heaven and Earth, which is indeed a fearsome opponent...
''I mean, Arantzill-san. You were even able to use such a maniacal technique?
Of course, I was a brave man once, too.

　I didn't remember any of the brave men of the past.
　The only thing I can use in battle is a tremendous amount of knowledge. It's terrifying.

''Since he was very young, Radie has worked tirelessly to become a brave man. He learned from many of his teachers. That's why he remembered 'The Void' as well.
I can't do it myself.

　I'm the one who got Arantzill-san's "Super Emperor Splitting Sky" by imitating the way he looked at it, but that's why I'm skipping an important stage.
　I'm sure that from that point of view, the one who is more appropriate for a brave man is Radie.

By the way, Arantzill-san?
What son?
Why are you here?

　I asked you to take care of your precious Malika and Gran.
　You didn't mean to leave the two of them behind?
　In the middle of the center guild that's been overrun with raccoon dogs?

Don't worry, I've got it all worked out.
Like what?
I got him right here with me.

　When I turned towards Mr. Alanziel's pointing, I saw a super familiar figure there.

''Marika and Gran?
'Yes, I was worried about leaving them behind in the Center Guild. I brought them with me.
"Boom!

　It would be more dangerous to take him out on the battlefield.
　Can't you see that I'm the one who got us into this mess, even though I went to a different place in the first place?

She's so boring and unreliable outside of battle!
Dariel. Dariel, maybe you should show a little more compassion to your father...?

　Aranziel-san, since there's nothing more you can do about your clunker, I've decided to move on to the main story.

◆

　I've decided to tell everyone what I witnessed at Lasperda Fortress.

　The disappearance of the fortress.
　The inferno that had survived.
　And that this time the attack of Ida in "Heaven and Earth" was caused by that inferno.

''That vicious child was responsible for the mastermind behind that incident, that is...?
The villainous group that attacked the village of Lux...?

　I killed the inferno with my own hands.
　I sliced him in half from the brain, and his body would have burned itself to ashes.

　Like Ida in Tenchi, he must have come from a realm not bound by the laws of this world.
　The world is being consumed by something or someone.
　There was a vague sense of eeriness about this.

''I heard that the Inferno is hiding in human territory. That's why the Ida of 'Heaven and Earth' has moved in.
Is that what the target is...?
Why don't you just say "no" and go in there, a**h*le?

　You'll never know what to do with that.
　The only way to do that is to intercept the other side without saying no, so the human side has no choice but to intercept.

　And even if you turned them down, there's no way the humans would accept that.

I'm going to find the inferno.

　It was Radie who went forcefully.

''If it's a plague that lurks in the human realm, then it's up to me, a brave man, to deal with it. I will request the guilds of all the towns and villages to track down the inferno and we will pursue and finish it off ourselves.

　After just one fight, Radey has become a lot stronger.
　This is a perfect example of how fighting makes a person strong.

I'm not going to be able to do anything about it.
Dariel, you will refrain.
What?

　I'm not happy with Mr. Alanziel's instructions.
　Not again.

You're right, it's a brave man's job to keep the peace. Put your feet up and let her do her job. You'll do your job.
My job...?

　To protect and develop the village as the head of Lax Village.
　I'm not sure if I'm going to be able to get it right or not.
　The next child will be born soon.....

''Well, it's about time for me to go back to Lax Village.

　Considering that, it was convenient to have Marie Cagran here.
　Let's just go straight back to Lax Village.

　Once we return to the center guild, we might get another inexplicable detention.

I'm also worried about Granbaza-sama. If we return to the village, we might be able to hear about the developments from Zebiantes.
It's Dariel.

　Mr. Alanziel said to me.

'You're not worried about me?'
'What?　Why?
'I am your biological father. Why worry about Granberza, why not me, your blood relative?
Because, Mr. Arantzill, you're not hurt anywhere.
But...
'But not really. You got through it unscathed, so you don't have to worry about it.
But still.

　I knew he was an incomprehensible person outside of the battle.

　Anyway, as I was admonished, we decided to leave the pursuit of the inferno to Radie and the others.

　Now I'm going to take Gran and Marika to the nearest town or village, and from there we'll take the carriage back to Lux village.

　It was good sightseeing.
