It was only in the morning when Leia and the others, who had been chasing the Goblin King's dummy, returned.
Chihar was tired and asleep in Leia's arms.
Chloe had returned to her human form and brought the Goblin King's dummy with her, dragging it with her.
'I'm sorry. I finally caught up with him, but he was a fake.
Yeah, I'm fine. I made him swear not to come here anymore.
What?
Oh, you're lying!
Leia and Chloe's eyes glaze over.
'Tu, did you catch him? The body.
Mm, she was crying so hard she apologized.
Well, that's what I'm talking about, Takumi. With all of us being fooled by these dummies, you didn't think it would be so easy to find the mainframe.
It's just that they thought it was a mistake and came out.
'And you dare to overlook the Goblin King, who gets stronger every time he runs away. Takumi, you can come back anytime, I'll be here waiting for you to become stronger. You let him go with that kind of secret message.
Yo, you're good. You're right.
No, what's with the back messages?
I got banned and missed it.
But it's too much trouble, so I'll just end it with the usual line, "Well, guys, good job.
Well, good work, guys. Chloe, I made some potato soup yesterday, do you want some?
Really? I'd love to have you join me.
It was when I was about to invite Chloe into the cave.
Chloe's attention was drawn to the demon sword in her right hand.
'Takumi-dono. I'm not going to be the one to offer you, but if you don't mind, that magic sword, would you like to leave it with me?
Pikun, Demon Sword-san reacts.
Come to think of it, Chloe said that Demon Sword-san was a disgrace to the sealed dragon race.
''What will you do if I leave it with you?''
...... beaten and folded. With my own hands.
"......
Mr. Demon Sword is silent.
''Can you tell me the details?''
Yes, after the meal.
It sounds like an important story, but apparently appetite takes precedence.
''There once was a genius in the dragon clan. It was said that his talent would eventually surpass that of the ancient dragons (Ancient Dragons), and he grew up with everyone's expectations in mind as a candidate for the next Dragon King.
It's a long story from the start.
I'll leave the difficult conversation to Takumi.
Leia said, and left early with Chiharu in her arms.
''You bought it, Demon Sword, though.
''However, that genius will eventually indulge in his talent and repeat his folly. At some point, the genius became known as the Evil Dragon and was stripped of his true name and banished from the dragon clan.''
...... evil dragon.
'Yes. It's an evil dragon.
I stare at the demon sword.
''Yes, it's not that evil. You're wrong.
Come to think of it, the name of the special move, it was the Evil Dragon Flame Bomb.
No, isn't it very evil, demon sword.
The banished Evil Dragon resented that and said, 'I'll make it happen! He spent his days fighting with the dragon clan, shouting, "I'm not going to let you get away with this! Finally, the anger of our clan reached its peak, and we were able to trap the evil dragon in a magical sword.
"That's funny, I don't recall ever saying anything like that.
...... You're definitely saying that, this.
'That's my sister, Evil Dragon Karuna.
What, sister?
That's right. The name of that magic sword is Karuna. My sister, abominable.
Sister!
I look twice at Demon Sword-san in shock.
''Really, Chloe is my sister.''
Come to think of it, Demon Sword-san ...... Karuna is jet black, just like Chloe. I think the shape (form) is also vaguely similar.
I'm sure you'll be able to find out more about this, but I'm not sure if it's a good idea. Is it okay for me to hold this? You didn't touch anything you're not supposed to touch or anything, right?
They're sisters, and Chloe is going to smash Carna?
Yes, my foolish sister, though sealed, has absorbed the power and is planning to resurrect it. I must stop it.
What's wrong with being back?
It will do more harm than good.
Are you sure? Carna?
No, you can't do that anymore. I'm really sorry, Coo-chan. I'm really sorry, Coo-chan.
I feel like Karuna is feeling a bit shabby.
It doesn't look like she's lying to me: ......
"Takumi-dono, have you been talking to Cal ...... demon sword earlier?
'Yeah, I'm talking, but I still don't think Chloe can hear me?
''Yes, perhaps only those whom the demon sword truly recognizes as its master can speak. It seems that Takumi-dono is the only person in the world who can hear that voice.
A magic sword that sucks the power out of what you have.
Ironically, no one else can equip it, and Karuna has spent her entire life alone?
''What do you think? Did you say anything about me?
We are sisters, after all. We don't really want to fight each other.
We can't do that anymore. I'm really sorry, Coo-chan. I'm really sorry, Coo-chan. I'm really sorry, Coo-chan.
I tell you exactly what Karuna said.
'...... Cal-nei.'
Chloe's face takes on a gentle expression for a moment.
However, it quickly tightens up into a vicious circle.
It's not that I believe it, but if Takumi-dono has it, let's close our eyes for today. It's a good thing that you're able to do that, because it's easy for Takumi to defeat you, no matter if you come back and do something bad.
I can't do it, though.
But I can't.
My mind's murmur and Karuna's voice clashed.
It was late afternoon, some time after Chloe had left.
Leia and Chihar, who had been chasing the Goblin King all night, were asleep, stacked on top of each other on straw.
'Takumii: ...... mummies.'
Chihar calls my name in his sleep.
'...... I'll tell you later, I don't have time right now.'
The change in Chihar during the Goblin King's battle is worrisome, but I'm in no hurry. Whatever Chihar's identity is, right now, right now, Chihar is cute. That's all I need to know.
The weather is nice, so let's hang up the hammock and I'll sleep too.
That's when I went outside with that thought.
A lone messenger bird flew in and left an envelope in front of the cave.
I haven't received a single letter in ten years.
The envelope was black with red sealing wax on it.
I had a bad feeling about this, but I couldn't stop myself from opening it, so I tore open the envelope in a haphazard manner. When I looked inside, I found a postcard.
To the adventurers ranking first to tenth.
Due to the announcement of the resurrection of the Ancestor Demon King, we will be holding a Tenth Party. Please come to the guild headquarters immediately.

Pretending I didn't see it for now, I decided to take a nap.
Please report us if you find any errors so we can fix it asap!
