This place was somehow old fas.h.i.+oned place.
In other words, it was degenerated.
This wasn’t about how degenerate the place was.
The place was gloomy to begin with. There was a prepared and slightly dirty round wooden table where ten people with covered face gathered at.
In other words, n.o.body tried to liven up this place, and the atmosphere here also seemed to be like this because of the people gathered in this place.
However, if this gloomy mood mentioned, they probably would be joyful.
Talking with their mouth, there was no different in their eagerness.
Moreover, n.o.body said anything, so their eagerness remained the same.
Well, that much was good enough.
“Now, this is going to be quick, but I can deliver good news to everyone this time. For some reason, I found something more interesting than this.” (??)
The words uttered in this place were greeted with commotion of surprise.
However, the voices gradually turned into joy.
Well, that would be so.
To them, this was exactly the first step toward their desires.
There was no reason not to be pleased, and there was no need for not making noises.
But, it didn’t happen to all of them as some were calmed.
After verifying the information heard, one of them opened mouth.
“…Is that certain?” (??)
“I directly met her yesterday. There is no mistake to begin with.” (??) (TLN: The word ‘her’ is not in the raw.)
“Ooh…” (??)
As expected, the people gathered making voices of admiration to the story behind it.
They were even suppressing their trembling bodies and gulped once.
“That is… in other words…” (??)
“Yes, in other words… The time to remain obscure is finally ending before long.” (??)
In the end, there were no voices coming up from anyone due to that predictable proclamation.
These people were deeply moved because of that.
They were trembling with joy from the bottom of their hears as the time they had until now was not wasted.
“Now, the world will soon be corrected. And when the time comes, that person will definitely lead us. Don’t lose your focus until that time comes.” (??)
“…Of course. Yes, let’s focus on this matter more. For the sake of welcoming Him.” (??)
“Yes. Everything is for the sake of the Demon King.” (??)
“For the sake of the Demon King!” (??)
In that gloomy place, the words were repeated all at once as they were clearly smiling.

“Nii-sama. I’m going!” (Lina)
“Hmm, alright.” (Soma)
— Ruler of Swords – Divine Protection of Dragon G.o.d – Ability of Discernment – Abandonment: Elude.
Soma moved his arm and lightly eluded the blow that was unleashed together with the fighting spirit voice.
He was doing it lightly because he had expected that she would do the technique in the first place.
Lina’s body also moved without going against the eluding movement, and from there, a series of attacks was unleashed.
Soma was able to elude until the fourth blow, but he had to accept the fifth blow because it was impossible to elude anymore.
“Ah, I did it! I finally made Nii-sama accept my attack!” (Lina)
“Hmmm, that was brilliant, but… why did you stop there?” (Soma)
“–Aah” (Lina)
And the moment Lina realized it, her head w
as. .h.i.t hard.
At the end of the day, the ending was as usual.
“Auu… I was thinking to attack until Nii-sama defended against my a.s.sault. That’s why I was careless.” (Lina)
Lina’s shoulders were drooped when she said so, but there was no mistake that it was brilliant move.
This was a month after their ‘reconciliation’.
As Lina came here once a week, this was the fourth time he had a match with her.
Therefore, there was no surprise that she could match swords with Soma.
Speaking of Soma’s swordsmans.h.i.+p, although it was inferior, it didn’t fall behind compared to his time of the heyday.
“Well, if you had that aim, is that considered to be a pa.s.sing point for you? I guess you will need more time before you can hit my body.” (Soma)
“Muu–… But, I will definitely do it later!” (Lina)
“Hmm… Alright, show it to me. I am looking forward to it.” (Soma)
Those words were not compliment.
He was actually looking forward to it, and he was thinking to the point whether it would be fun if he took her as a disciple.
It was something inconceivable thought in the past life.
That was solely because he didn’t intend to walk the way of the sword in this present life
This was a bad way of saying it, but that could be considered of killing times.
Regarding the way of the sword, it was meant to be swinging sword only for the sake of himself.
At least that was the way it was for Soma, and he had no time to wield the sword for others.
However, apart from that, it wasn’t that Soma was doing only for himself.
To put it simply, as long as Soma taught someone, he would be spending the time for himself.
By doing so in this life, he would do it altogether when it was about magic.
Even if he got some sort of crucial information, it could be thought to anyone and he also could make himself used magic.
