” … Aleo, what are you looking at?”

“Hack, do you see that bat there? Do you think my attack can reach it from here?”

Alessio pointed at the sky straight ahead.

” … Bat? Is there such a thing there? Though I believe, if it’s you, you can defeat it.”

“That’s true. Well, that’s a clone so there’s no meaning even if I defeat it.”

Saying that, Alessio drew his sword and released a skill even a low-level Apprentice Swordsman can learn, 「Slash」 (however, it had enough power to split the ground) at the bat but at the same time, his spine trembled.

“Hack … did you notice?”

“What is it this time?”

“I sense her presence.”

Alessio said that ― and his mouth slackened into a large grin.

“Why, what happened!”

In the sky above Ferruit, Valf could not deal with two abnormalities that cropped up.

The first was that the ritual that has been conducted in the labyrinth has been canceled by someone.

It was unexpected beyond all his expectations.

Thankfully, close to ten thousand monsters escaped from the labyrinth and just that number should be capable of utterly destroying Ferruit, or so he thought.

But here, a further unexpected event happened.

The Hero Alessio who defeated the Demon Lord appeared.

The remaining monsters were unilaterally trampled by him.

The clone he sent for reconnaissance far above in the sky saw that scene.

(Is he even human?)

It was when he thought that.

Alessio pointed at his direction.

(I was noticed? At this location?)

He thought that it was unbelievable.

But, the next instant, a 「Slash」 flew over, causing Valf to think.

I’ll be killed if I don’t quickly leave this country.

It was at that point in time.

― This presence … no way … !?

Unlike the Hero, the presence that appeared to the north, the presence that surged for a moment before immediately shrinking down caused Valf to rejoice.

(Demon Lord-sama, you should deal with your own enemy.)

His next plan began from that moment.

Valf felt it.

At that direction ― Demon Lord Famiris‧Raritei once again descended upon this world.

Author’s note:

The next chapter would be the Epilogue.

After that, I’ll sandwich in just a bit of Miri’s side chapters, five chapters in a row.

TL: The advent of Imouto MIRI!!!!
