“Ah, you didn’t know? The reason why the number of people that chased after you was so feas partly because to fool you Rein, but also to fool the person nah with the princess is wary of the person named Ast Except for the personnel that’s here that I stationed in case of eone to chase him No matter how incredible that person is, he won’t be able to do anything by hi this, Rein was certain He fell for the trap, but equally so did this woman
And if he didn’t tell her the truth now, then the responsibility of all that ht fall square onto hih you said it was the club’s rules in the past that stopped you fro my name, but that’s not the case now, isn’t it? Rather than ‘ht be even better if you called me Irie like my family”
“No, milady, that’s not…”
“Iris!”
“Tha… I… Yes, Miss Iris,… that’s not the iht now…”
“It is! Hm, because you’re not used to it yet, you can call me ‘miss’ for now, but in the future, I want you to leave the ‘miss’ out as well”
“Ah, I understand But, I’ important”
“What’s thelike that between us?”
Rein wondered whether he could say this, but havingay by now, he said the truth
“Miss Iris, actually… the thing that ran aith anger”
“Eh?”
In that instant, the noble girl’s s down on Rein froze instantly
“The instructor has already fled through another route, and he said he’d live life in a village far away at the end of the world as a farmer…”
The noble lady didn’t reply to Rein But her expression told hi
Her whiter and whiter face
Her clattering teeth And the shi+vering of her hands that he could even feel through his collar
Shortly afterwards, after shaking for a while she quietly murmured
“I’m screwed…”

‘It’s finally over!’
Unless one was on the level of being able to be called an archdevil, it was pie in the sky to receive a soul as the price for your assistance
Normal devils made provisional contracts with treasures or other commodities as compensation, and I too, did the same
And I saw hell
I had definitely contracted hat huanization, filled with people that would ood partners for devils, but what I’d faced would put trainee heroes to sha was all perfectly natural, but as if they couldn’t feel any pain, these kids would charge in injuries and all as if they didn’t knohat a liers it was tasked ere all horrified
At a later date, when I had gone to consult with another doppelganger that had met a hero recorded in history, orstone for said hero, he said this
-What, that’s scary Not even the hero went that far…
It was seriously like hell Just once I’d gotten so pissed I’d breached the terth to give the kids pain
Even disregarding er, I had turned the enehtest brush would give them unspeakable pain
But in that state they were burnt, sliced and tore their skin, yet they were s this pain!’
“Kuahahaha! If you co more than child’s play!’
Just what is the bat?
And worse, the next generation’s brats called disciples were even worse
-Lord Surtr why are you…
-I was scaers looked on at the slave life of the great giant that burned doorld the doppelgangers all realized that they needed to get out of this place as soon as they could
And not long afterwards all of theot the freedom they wanted Except for hiht you!”
“Give up, Sir Ast!”
“You’re going back to the princess!”
Out of fear I’d be recontracted because I half-assed this job I ran away like I’d set my soul on fire
But even that was its liht, the contract is finally over
‘I’ain!’
I ain even if the compensation was a soul
‘Hu was a place that opposed the empire And the people in front of me are imperial soldiers
To think the eanization Howling also raised at least this level of monsters!
Who called huer than devils and even have more numbers than us!
“I can’t see the bat!”
“It really does seem like he handed it over to Rein to fool us”
“We have reports that there’s a higher level of weapon than that so be cautious!”
I’ain, but the humans in front of us were all difficult to defeat even if I’d used allcalled a bat! Is this bat so?
But thanks to that, he could buy er was thankful for that
And around forty minutes later
“Ah, the contract’s over”
“Wh, what?!”
“Thi, this is a doppelganger?”
“Does that mean vice-captain Iris’ side was the real one?!”
“C, contact with vice-captain Iris The person she caught was the one named Rein, and Sir Ast has escaped! I repeat, Sir Ast has escaped! He said he’d go live in a village at the end of the world and live as a farmer there!”
As his spirit became fainter and fainter, at the appearances of the hu anger shouted
-Hahaha, it’s the best! Freedoo!
But, even as it did the doppelganger thought
‘Just what is it exactly that this level of humans fear…’
