After witnessing the march of the Demon army, we hid in the inn for several hours.

There were no Demons who broke in so we are fortunate not to be discovered.

If there is any chance, then everyone of us would have got caught.

Cecil-oneesan, is it already safe?”

The most affected of us, Helena was pretty scared, and wont leave my side for a while.

I want to reassure her as much as possible but……

“I will take a look at the situation outside”

“Eh, is it okay?”

“I’ll not go far to the inn, so don’t worry”

I patted Helena’s head to make her feel relieved, then I went outside.

On the way, I met with Glinnis in front of the reception desk.

“Huh? Are you going out?”

“Yes, I want to see the situation”

“Then I’ll follow you! This place is making me hard to breathe”

She came over as she said so.

It was reassuring to have her side as in this dark mood after the appearance of the troops, as she helped to release the tension.

As I thought, it’s worthwhile that Allan-sama anticipated this……

“Thank you very much, Glinnis-san”

“No no, it’s fine! Come on, let’s go”

“Ah, please wait!”

Glinnis-san who said she’s going to follow me just went ahead.

Even though I’m worried about it, I still think it’s fine.

“Hmmm, that’s weird. I wonder what happened……”

“Is there anything wrong?”

Since I heard her mutter some strange things, I also rushed ahead.

When we left the inn, I saw Glinnis looking at the street perplexed.

Before this, the Demon army was just marching here a few hours ago.

“They still there ……”

“No, it’s not that, Cecil!”

“Eh? What is it?”

“The castle, they are marching back towards the castle!”

Glinnis pointed out to the marching Demons.

“to the castle? Certainly, they are marching opposite the direction we saw earlier”

Checking my previous memory a few hours ago, they really seem to be going back from where they came from.

Then, are the Demon forces withdrawing?

“Does that mean the invasion has stopped? Then Allan-sama……”

Allan-sama succeeded, he went towards the Demon Lord and successfully carried it out.

However, we cannot be certain yet. This is still the enemy territory, so to speak.

“Allan-sama, please return to us safely……”

I pray facing the Demon Lord’s Castle.

The next moment, my shoulder was tapped from behind.

“Well, here I am. Wish granted?”

“Eh, A-Allan-sama?”

I turned my back in wonder, just to see Allan-sama who should have gone to the Demon Lord’s Castle.

“You were safe!”

“Yeah, I made it somehow. Sorry that it took a long time.”

“Allan-sama lowered his head apologetically.

“No, it’s okay. I believed and waited for Allan-sama after all”

Though I was really worried, I cannot cry here.

“So you went and negotiated with the Demon Lord, am I correct?”

“It took me a little while, but in the end I was able to make the Demon Lord cooperate”

Allan-sama stretched both is arms, a gesture of him that indicated he was feeling relieved of a job well done.

“Hey. Don’t say it like it was an easy talk. Stop it.”

Just in the middle of our conversation, a person came behind Allan-sama.

It was a beautiful woman with light brown skin.

Ah, don’t tell me she’s……

I have also guessed it out in just her presence too.

But just to make sure, I have to confirm it with Allan-sama for the time being.

“Allan-sama, this person is?”

“Oh, Beatrice? She’s the Demon Lord of this country I was referring to earlier. Or should I say “Queen”?”
