While thinking that it was ined, Ichika transferred to the Northern Ar Ichika appear with her sudden entrance, after spacing out a bit, a Northern Army soldier flusteredly saluted to her

The faces of the top brass of the Dehout the whole land of the Dark Continent thanks to the game pieces Due to that, even the soldier realized that the one who appeared before thes finished without clu her as a suspicious person

「Ichiksa……Uwaah, De-sama!?」

「Keep quiet And then, tell Altejio that I will be borrowing a room Also,an important talk」

「Y, yes!」

Ichika advanced while still holding Vermudol in her arms, entered a rando suddenly been put into a situation where he was brought into a room, Vermudol uneasily surveyed the room, and opened his mouth

「U, um……?」

「……I am terribly sorry but」

「Y, yes?」

While harboring the belief that Vermudol's state was different from usual, Ichika asked her question

「……Could you, tell me what your name is?」

「Ah, er that, Ichika breathed a deep sigh

However, it's strange at the sa that should no longer exist She needed to ascertain why he appeared with this ti, and by whose will did this happen

「Do you knoho I am?」

With that question, the Vermudol who introduced himself as Ryou sank into silence

Rather than not knowing, it see

「……Erils when I was sleeping……」

「Is that so Well then, what about the world that you know?」

「Ah, yes Erーm……mankind's territory and the Dark Continent are separated by the Sea of Farthest Ends, and for a long ti beyond that……wait, huh?」

Seeing the self-proclaimed Ryou tilt his head after he said that, Ichika ht, the one in front of her ithout a doubt Vermudol

It wasn't that 「Ryou」, a person froments of 「Ryou」 as a 「substitute personality」 until he hi as such

Ichika did not possess any techniques that could tinker with the soul, but only with the frage that she learned in the time she spend with the Demon God, she concluded that that was e from another world remained within Vermudol, and 「Ryou」 ithdrawn froht noas neither the person who became the rawlike a vestige of hi weak that would be overwritten and vanish once the repairs on Vermudol's soul were completed

Ryou hiradually come to understand that

Ryou's personality and Vermudol's memories connected……And then, Ryou completely understood

That he himself, had already died

That he met with the Demon God

That this place was a world called Remfilia

That this body was of a person called Ver different from his own

……And then, that he himself that was here wasn't Ryou himself

The s he could re but vague frago into a derangement, but Ryou calmly accepted it

It was composure that could surprise even himself, but that was also proof that the current Ryou was actually Vermudol

「Well then, I shall introduce myself I am……」

「Ichika, -san……isn't it」

「Yes To think that naave a nod to Ichika

「It's only little by little but……I', to understand」

With a face that looked a bit lonely……but seeiven up, Ryou erVermudol A new person that was made with Ryou as the raw materials

Ryou understood that his current self was nothing but a substitute for him

「……That is correct」

Ichika said that and nodded

She was able to comfort the Ryou that was in front of her, but there was noIchika was able to understand because she had repeatedly reincarnated

It was different from the process that Vermudol was made from Ryou, but if the current Ichika and Ria were to be compared, they were like different people If the past Ria were to see Ichika, there was no mistake that she would say they were different people

In Ryou's case, since the Demon God had recomposed even his soul, that deviation was surely obvious

However, there was no longer any other choice but to give up on it

Just as Ria was the past to Ichika, Ryou was also Vermudol's past

The fact that he was here itself was irregular, but even so, as long as he was here right now, she needed to carry out her duties

「Ryou-saly self-aware of that」
