“Is this also a joke…”

A woman clicked her tongue after confirming that the cliff at the end of the continent had been hit by her waves. She was the leader of the Holy Knights. She was still on a journey to find the candidate for the missing hero.

After the day the demon king candidates appeared and disappeared immediately, their appearances also disappeared.

The leader recognized this as the work of a demon king candidate.

He actually didn’t die, but survived and harmed them.

“Hey Rumia, don’t you smell it?”

“Oh, nothing comes! Captain, I want to go back soon… Black.”

“Oh, don’t be bitter. If you’re a soldier, you should have prepared for this.”

Lightly ignoring Rumia’s crying face, I looked around her.

“Where did you go…”

The leader smacked his lips in a complicated manner. It was about to be half a year since they disappeared. The Vatican, which was hiding the great incident of the absence of the hero, was too tired to hide the truth any longer.

A rumor is circulating in the private sector. The warrior could not overcome the burden and ran away.

I could have slightly matched the runaway story I did before, but it was different now. It wasn’t a runaway, it was a real disappearance.

“I can’t even get caught by the reaction… Where are you really going, you damn kids.”

The leader clicked his tongue and kicked only a small stone. Not visible Tracking magic is useless, and even if you chase the holy sword or holy spear, you can’t see it.

It was bleak. What should i do now

“Are you the leader of the Holy Knights?”

That was the time. A man’s voice came from behind the leader, who was dazed as he looked down the cliff.

“As I’ve heard, it looks tacky. I…”

Boom!

Before the story was over, a strong wind blew in the face of the stranger who was talking to him. The captain moved his fist and stopped it at the tip of his nose. The hood that covered his face was blown away by the wind, and the stranger’s face was clearly visible in the sunlight.

The captain was quite surprised by that appearance. Still, he did not change his hard-hitting attitude.

“Courtesy bastard. I’m a bit of a high-ranking person. What are you doing?”

“It’s rude! This person…”

“Stop it.”

I raised the bum behind me. It was estimated either as a seed or as a load.

“Okay… Now that you’re out of the woods, you’ll have to live up to your filthy short-eared aesthetic standards. Your brown hair, like rotten leaves, is so pretty. Is that okay?”

“f*ck it.”

“All. Captain. Calm down…”

After Lumia stopped it, the captain smiled and stepped back. He was just swinging at the moment anyway, and he had no intention of making it into a big problem.

“If our pretty Lumia hadn’t stopped you, you’d all be dead. You know?”

“Whoa… Unbelievers are savage after all.”

“You guys who judge your appearance as soon as you see your face are very cultured, aren’t you?”

The captain frowned as he held Rumia with one arm. Are you paying for your face? She observed the outsiders approaching slowly.

It’s beautiful. That was my first impression. Eyes and hair that seemed to have been moved from greenery, skin as white as the morning sun, sharp nose and eyes. The most notable among them were the ears.

Unlike normal humans, it has sharply extended ears. At first glance, it resembled the branch of a tree. I knew it only through knowledge, but I was sure.

“Are all elves like that?”

It was an elf. A race that is only found in the Great Forest of the World Tree and would never have been seen otherwise. Perhaps her hooded bums behind her were elves as well as the one in front of her.

“Well, beyond all the radical discussions about racial discrimination… What’s your business? What’s your reason for coming to see me?”

“Yes, there is a purpose.”

At the recommendation of the leader, the authoritative elf went straight to the point.

“We are looking for a demon king candidate.”

At those words, the captain’s eyes flashed open.

“hehehehe…”

At those words, Rumia let out a timid sound.

‘I-I’m not the only one chasing the captain, is there anyone else…? How many enemies Why didn’t you tell me before? I’m your faithful spy… Why…’

It’s been half a year since we lost contact. So far, no orders have been handed down to her loyal confidante Lumia of the Moonlight (she is the name given by herself). Thinking she was thoroughly hidden made her feel relieved, but on the contrary, she could be too busy being pursued by the enemy to deliver her orders. The mind weighing between her relief and anxiety was always just nervous.

That was the time.

A glass bird flew towards the leader. A method of communication unique to wizards that transfers letters.

“We elves told him…”

“Oh, wait.”

Before the lengthy story related to the demon king candidate began, the leader quickly blocked the story. Her elves looked at her with her bewildered expression. She, of course, ignored her.

As soon as the leader unwrapped the letter tied to the glass bird, he tore the envelope roughly. The Pope’s seal stamped in the center was lightly ignored. What harm would an old man with strong holy power do to the leader of the Holy Knights?

“Um… Whoa.”

As he read it, the leader’s face was full of interest. The elf shot, frowning his beautiful eyes.

“Are you saying that letter is more important than our clan?”

“That’s true. It’s been a while since I met you guys.”

“…”

“A little bit of a mouthful.”

The leader dismissed it again lightly, then read the letter and closed it.

North north north north.

I tore it into several pieces again. Rumia was shocked. She must be the only one who handles her papal letters so harshly.

No, it seemed that it could be like that again if it was a candidate for the hero.

“We’re busy, so we’ll have to go back.”

“What kind of rudeness! Our story should have come first!”

“It hasn’t been that long since we met, let’s not cross the line.”

I waved my hands at the enraged elves and told them to step back.

“Or will you guys come along?”

“…Where?”

It was Rumia who asked this time.

“The Holy See.”

“How could we have seen unbelievers…”

“I don’t know if I can catch the demon lord candidate?”

The elves’ mouths closed, and Rumia’s mouth opened wide.

‘Ah, ah, ah, ah!

Her emergency was no ordinary emergency, if she could assert that. Eva’s life may be in real danger. She swallowed dryly and waited for the captain’s next words.

“They say that a candidate for the hero has returned. Aren’t you the one who can do what you want best?”

There was too much rhetoric, but the content of the Pope’s personal letter was simple.

The person you’ve been looking for has returned.

**

“Welcome~!”

As soon as I opened the door, the person in front of me stretched out his arm. Without hesitation, she hugged my neck tightly and put her weight on it. It was a hug.

She was still a woman who exudes a strange atmosphere that is difficult to describe in words, with soft warmth and unique fragrance.

“Mother… Wouldn’t it be right to take care of Lilia first…?”

It was Monia. As she received her strong hug, she remembered the hug she had just felt.

-Lee, Iba… I don’t want to go…

Wizz clung to his waist like a cicada and whined.

-Iba… Are you abandoning us like this…? Don’t you think it’s too much…?

Stella, who clung to her back as much as Wiz did, covered her body odor.

-Iva… Don’t throw it away… Come with me…

Innis embraced her in front of her, even covered in tears.

Caught by the three women, he might look happy at first glance, but in reality he wasn’t that happy. After all, all of them do not want to return to their workplaces.

Ah, there is a bit of ambiguity in saying that she doesn’t want to return, so I’ll correct it.

She hated paying for months of silent disappearance. The ace of the Demonic Realm as a candidate for the hero. All of them were high-quality personnel, so it was obvious that there were many places to find them. That void is inevitably fatal.

I’m sure it’ll break right after I go back.

Stella and Wiz lost their Holy Spear and Holy Sword.

To prevent such a thing from happening, I brought the rusty holy sword and holy spear from the future.

However, this one is also not in very good condition, and will receive a lot of criticism for negligent management immediately after returning.

‘Come to think of it, where did the original Holy Sword and Holy Lance go?’

The original weapons should have been swept away by the cracks. Not only that, but it was obvious that the elves were also swept away by the rift and fell somewhere. Where did they go

‘…I should know.’

Don’t look away. It was clearly his own sin. Certainly, the elves had attacked to take their lives first, but there was no reason for such a massacre. There was obviously room for a solution through dialogue.

Guilt stung me. Still, it wasn’t as bad as before. It was because he knew that there were people who would support him, believe in him, and love him even if he went astray.

“Mom… Mom…!”

Lilia’s voice grew stronger behind her.

“Mom…!”

Why? I was gradually losing my mind.

“Mom! The child is going to die!”

“Puha!”

Lillia dragged me behind her. Only then did I realize that I was suffocating, buried in Monia’s chest. She was about to die a long time ago. A very unusual death, too.

“Oh, I’m sorry. I’m so happy too.”

“Hug me if you’re that happy.”

“Is that so?”

“Kwaaa nice of you”

Monia didn’t have any reservations. Monia, who hugged Lilia as hard as she hugged me, laughed and gradually choked her out. Indeed, was I like that?

I’m afraid. Next time, I’ll have to be a little more alert.

“By the way, Eva.”

“Yes?”

Monia asked back while choking Lillia.

“Where’s the perfume I gave you before?”

In an instant, a chilling sensation passed through my back. It was a pure question, but for some reason I trembled with fear.

“Ah… That’s…”

While holding it, he must have realized that the scent was different. I accidentally lost it because I went through various things. It was a very crazy day. I feel very sorry for Monia, but I think losing is unavoidable. At that time, I didn’t have time to pack my luggage.

“Inadvertently…”

“By mistake?”

It’s okay though. Now I can trust people. I know that Monia is not criticizing for things like this.

“I lost it.”

“Ooh, someone else gave me perfume, so you threw mine away.”

“…Yes?”

Wasn’t it?
