In another 48 hours, the monster sealed by the Demon Lord Famiris‧Raritei would be released.

Sheena told them that it was because a part of the barrier was broken.

“Sheena … don’t tell me the seal was broken because we saw that jewel just now?”

“No, just the other day, the cornerstone at the Western Continent was broken. That is the cause. It is just a coincidence that master visited this island.” (TL: If you guys don’t remember, I’m pretty sure she’s referring to the one Jofre and Elize took from the undiscovered labyrinth.)

I was slightly relieved after hearing that but …

“Is the monster really that strong?”

“It is a monster that Famiris‧Raritei-sama could only resort to sealing it. Even if the hero and his party who defeated Demon Lord-sama fought it, they probably wouldn’t have been able to win too.”

“Such a monster … then the current me won’t be able to win … but I can’t just leave it be too.”

I muttered worriedly.

What would happen if such a violent monster revives?

It won’t stop after just trampling on this island. It would naturally attack any passing merchant ship and if it attacked us while we are rowing our boat, it might be life-threatening.

” … Is it certain that the monster would attack this island?”

“As I mentioned before, this island also serves as a cornerstone for that monster’s seal — that jewel you saw before. It will assault this island to destroy that seal. If possible, before that happens, I would like master to take that jewel. I would like master to protect what Sheena No.3 has protected all this while.”

Sheena said that as she once again took out the hidden jewel.

” … Sorry, Sheena. I can’t take that. Sheena, you take it. Let’s escape together.”

“I apologize but I am unable to comply. Only Demon Lord Famiris‧Raritei-sama, the grandmaster, is able to give me permission to change location.”

“I’ve already said it before. The Demon Lord is no longer in this world.”

“Yes, so Sheena No.3 will not be able to leave this island.”

Then, Sheena continued.

“Rest at ease master. I may be able to speak like this but I do not have emotions. I am entirely a doll created to fulfill my role. I do not want to think that I am expendable but it is Sheena No.3’s lifelong ambition to complete my task.”

” … You said that there are another 48 hours before the seal is broken right?”

“Yes, 48 hours … to be exact, it is 47 hours and 50 minutes but once the seal is broken, it would take 30 minutes to reach this island.”

“I see, if that’s the case, we can make a ship. Carol, sorry but please tell Pionia to hasten the production of the ship. Let me see, please make it within 40 hours.”
