When four years passed, the world was talking about one organization called the Association of the Brave.
　It was an organization of those who had left Fischanatica.
　It was said that one of them, who began to emerge in less than two years, was Raid Black, who had been exiled from the capital.
　When I told her that, Sierra made a somewhat unflattering face, "I guess he found a place to stay in his own way," she said.

　This association of the brave, but it seems that they will soon change their name and expand the scope of their activities. The base of operations is said to be right on the border between the former Pasquantine territory and the former Utopia territory, but is this their idea? Sonoda, huh? I have a feeling that someone is biting the bullet.
　These are the stories Tom and the others have told me. Tom heard them from Lord Elferise. Lord Elferise heard it from Spielmann, but why doesn't he tell me directly....
　I can imagine that fake innocent, hidden, insidious side of him. It's a world of difference from Nem.

　It's not an exaggeration to say that if four years have passed since he disappeared from the public stage, rumors in the Jishi's bloodline are nothing more than a thing of the past, and any bad impressions of the organization have been dispelled.
　However, not long ago, there was a discussion at the round table about how the Yagis were trying to use Gateral to spread the darkness about the bloodline of the Ciha. But it was nothing of the sort.
　Apparently Schneizel of Dahms Ardan had disappeared, and some said that he had hanged himself. I'm not sure about this, but it's an opportunity for them to attack the organization in an insidious way.
　But no matter where you look, you won't find any tails.

　Even now, in each country, including the eighteenth, they are still masquerading as charity workers, but the residents are so supportive of them that they can no longer do anything about it. They are playing an insidious game, and support for the country has even fallen off. If they had taken physical action, they would have been branded as dictators. But they're not stupid, and they didn't go that far.
　Rather, Yaki should have a top priority of war with the underworld.

　For the past few years, we traveled all over. When we got tired of traveling, we went back to the royal capital and returned to the demon kingdom. Sometimes I would take Sierra with me, and at first she looked guilty, but then I'd whisper to her that we were going to have a dungeon transfer, it was just a quick shopping trip, and she'd be seduced. It was easy to get him to do so.
　When I returned to the royal capital, I occasionally found Ichijou. What kind of intentions do you have?
　Since he tried not to refuse Toa's suggestions too often, he had taken Ichijou along on the trip a few times, but he was a noisy guy, "Hidaka-kun, Hidaka-kun," he said.
　On the way, when Toa imitated him and called him "Hidaka-kun", he didn't even speak to him for a while.

　After five years had passed, I suddenly realized that Nem had grown up without realizing it.
　Unbeknownst to me, Nem had turned into an adult.
　You don't notice it when you're with him all the time. But the next thing I knew, I was remembering that time Nemu was shown to me in the prophecy.
　Since then, I've been feeling chills from time to time. But when I turned my attention to Toa, he was smiling. Nem has grown taller, his face has changed, he's grown up in many ways, but inside he remains innocent, and I didn't see even a glimpse of the prophecy in the two of them, and I was reassured that fortune telling is fortune telling.







　And.
　Six years passed since I was summoned to this world.
　I had turned 23 years old, and I was taller and more mature than before.

　One day. Inside the dungeon - in the palace's throne room - I said to myself, "Amadeus, it's really good to see you.

'Are you sure you are ready, Master Amadeus?' asked Alicia. 'I'd better not be, I'm afraid.
Don't leave it to your fortune telling.
'But I guess it's okay,' said Tom. 'I didn't rely on any of Alicia's fortunes except for Nito's, and it's just fine.

　Alicia gave him a dubious look.

'Spielman, would the Demon Pope be in Ixos now?
Yeah, I'm sure.

　He still has no respect for the guy. He's got a pipe in his mouth and is playing with smoke.

"Lord Elfelise, go and wait outside the barricades, we'll come to you when we're done, and in the meantime, you're in charge.
'I accept,' said Lord Elferise, bowing deeply.
'Lana, leave those who are afraid.
'Very well, sir,' said Rana, bowing as well.
Alicia, let's go. Tonight, the shackles of resentment will be loosened...
Yes, sir.

　I declared to everyone around me.
　Then I invited Alicia into the vortex of the dungeon and we walked together.

　After exiting the dungeon, we landed in a vast grassy field. My vision was already shrouded in darkness, and the night sky of another world was there. I stomped my feet on the grass and soil from a deep sense of emotion.
　In the middle of the landscape in front of me, I could see the nostalgic defensive walls of Greberg. Now renamed the Holy Land, it's a change from six years ago.
　On the site of the royal castle I destroyed, I could see a more divine, pure white castle than before. It stands taller than before, so much so that even from this small hill I can see half of it.
　The vast defensive wall that surrounded the castle town had also been changed to white. Was this another necessary part of the "show of power" that Alford had said sometime ago? It seems like a waste of money.

'You know the place, Alicia,'
Yes, of course.
Then show me around. It's a big one.

　I am determined to fulfill my vow today.

Revenge...
