When I fought Inferno once, he called himself Siegfriedgel.
　It was a hard fight, but I managed to cut him off and thought the inferno was defeated.

　However, when I heard that an inferno had appeared afterwards, the first thing I thought of was the 'theory that there were more than two infernos'.

　That guy was wearing a red cloak completely over his head, and it was impossible to tell the contents from each other.
　If they wore the impressive red cape together and declared 'I am inferno', the messenger of hell would appear again and again, wouldn't he?

''That's both correct and incorrect, isn't it?''

　I expressed my opinion and Estelica told me so.

'They are plural and alone. Some of the walkers have come together to form a body for one person. That's why when you fought them, Siegfriedgel was in control of his body, but it's possible that the other walkers were inside him as well.

　In the end, the only person who could be killed by cutting both sides at that time was Siegfriedgel, who had taken control of his body.
　I'm not sure of the details, but it seems that's how the system works.

　The reason why his body burned up and disappeared is because he wanted to make it appear that he was dead so that I would let my guard down.

You can't help but assume that I'm dead too.
''If you can hide in the flames and use magic such as transference or concealment, it is possible to disguise yourself as dead. If there are good wind wizards among the wraiths that make up the inferno, even Dariel-kun could be fooled.

　The way you talk.
　Are you failing to grasp the wraiths that make up the inferno?

All but Dorismegian are insignificant. In fact, one of them has already been cut down by you, and the other has been annihilated by the heat transformation of his soul. You're certainly losing head count.
How many people are left?
Now, you're sure it's all gone.

　Ida says.
　That's pretty Texan, a great man of the past.
　Is it because of your old values?

'We will certainly hunt them down from here. It's time for the Drismegian resistance to be crushed.

　Well, this guy came back to this world to catch the inferno.

　Hmm?
　No, no, no, no, no, wait a minute?

'That's not good!　Does that mean you're going to cause a big fuss again?

　It was the same before.
　They entered human territory without permission and kicked out every adventurer they encountered, so the center guild was in a panic.
　Finally, it has developed into a situation where a brave man is sent out.

''Don't worry. That's why I'm accompanying you this time.''

　'I'm sorry,' said Estelica.

'Ida-sama only knows this world a few hundred years ago. It's inevitable that he will misconstrue the common sense of the modern world and cause trouble. However, he is the only one who can go toe to toe with the Drismegians.

　Moreover, Inferno is hiding out in more distant human territories to escape the Demon King's exploration.
　That's why you keep causing incidents over here. I'd do the same for you, you little hateful bastard, I thought.

I am the youngest among the apostles of Valhalla and I am from the human race. It will be easier for you to adapt to this world. I will prevent you from having problems with the mortals. So I would like to ask a favor of you, Dariel-san.

　Yes?

'You have a reasonable amount of voice in today's human society, don't you?　Is there any way to inform the parties involved that we are not the enemy of the humans?　That will save you from unnecessary trouble.
Is that one of the reasons you're here?
Yes, sir.

　That's what I've been told.
　Don't get me wrong. I am, after all, just a small village chieftain.
　You see, I'm a small-time mayor with very little power.

　I have a certain amount of connections, so I can move things through those connections and....

It's not going to be easy to talk to Mr. Chancellor about the situation. I'll have to rely on Alanziel-san after all...?
Please don't do that.
'What?　Why?

　And you asked him to do it for you?

'If you want to avoid the commotion, wouldn't it be best to be quiet and not use magic?

　The last time I saw you, you were on a magic spree, and it was a real march.
　That was a big deal, of course.

"Now that I think about it, that's exactly what I think...!　Master Ida, let's proceed from here with no magic. We must hold our breath until we find our target.
Okay, all right.

　I thought that they were obeying me so obediently, but that's probably because they were right after being angered by the Demon King.

　From now on, the two of them are said to be secretly advancing through human territory in order to find the inferno.

''No, no, wait, after all?''

　But there is still a problem with letting them both go.
　The human side is dealing with the inferno.

'The brave man of our day, Radey, is leading his companions in a search. What if they were to match each other on the way...?

　They fought to the death just the other day.
　Could it get messy again...?

You mean the girls who challenged me. ....What if they encounter Drismegian and the others first?

　Mr. Ida said clearly, as if it was very obvious.

''They'll kill you for sure. If you're not good enough to bite off my spatial distortions desperately, you won't even be an enemy of the Drismegians.''

　I'm pissed off that they're so crisp, but it's probably true.

"If you don't want them to die, we'll have to find the Drismegian and deal with them before they do. "If you want them to survive, we'll have to find the Drismegians first.
I don't have a choice.

　I'll make sure they have a letter of identification from me.
　The head of one village will take on the identity, which will save us quite a bit of trouble in the other town or village.

Thank you for your help. Well, Ida-sama, it's time for us to leave.
Oh, this time I'll get the Drismegian!

　They said they were done with something.
　They come in and out of the blue.

"Please hold.

　There was someone to hold it back.
　Who was it?

Would you like me to accompany you?

　It was the Four Heavenly Kings' Droyer who said.

　Huh?　What?
　A statement that says we should follow Ida and the others to fight the inferno?

''Our role as the Four Heavenly Kings is to protect the Demon King. Now that we've confirmed the threat to the Demon King, we can't just stand by and watch.

　I'm serious.
　Shouldn't the current Four Heavenly Kings only have to deal with the current brave men and women?

I appreciate the spirit, but I can't bring myself to take a handful of people with me. Not if they were no more than a Drismegian crony.
'So give them a chance to humiliate me!　I can't continue to stay in the position of the Four Heavenly Kings with this disgrace intact!
..........

　Ida, staring back at Droyer's straight gaze.

'....Very well.
Thank you!

　My goodness.
　I never expected you to agree.

Master Ida. If you involve the people of this world, you'll be scolded by the devil king again...?
I'll take the blame. Drismegian will still have his cronies with him, so he needs to get rid of them.

　It has been decided that he will accompany me to Droyer.

'Good!　This will help clear the stigma, while at the same time allowing us to watch and learn from the battles of our predecessors!　I'm with you, Zebiantes!
How is it that I'm supposed to come along with you?

　It was Zeviantes who was baffled when he was suddenly called out.

It's a good thing that you are the Four Heavenly Kings, so you must do your duty. You must work hard for the amount of time you've been laden with.
"Yikes!　If Droyer comes to our side, there will be more trouble!

　Zebiantes is being dragged away.

　I thought as I watched it.

'I should go too...?

　Once I was held back by Arantzill-san, but after hearing the explanation this time, I realized that Inferno, or rather Drismegian, is a pretty dangerous guy.

　It would be in the interest of humanity to leave this situation unattended, and I don't know when the danger will come to my village of Lax, where I live.

"...Malika.
I will. Please take care of yourself.

　Marika, who had been quiet and reserved during the talk, seemed to swallow it all.
　After the encouragement of his well-built wife........

''I'm going too. Let's pour all our strength into destroying the inferno.

　
　However.

'No.'

　I don't know why he said no to me.

You are not to follow me. You are not to leave this place. Okay.

　The one who rejected him so was the once brave Estelica-san.
