"Ugh... nh..."

It was at dawn that Fi woke up.

Phi, who is not yet fully awake, looks around and understands that this is a room in the Kingdom of Dret.

"Is that...? I...."

I should have been seriously injured by being shot in the right leg, but now there is no pain and I doubt that the injury is no longer clean.

Then, we'll grasp the current situation step by step.

(I lost to him....)

This is the first time I have been overwhelmingly overwhelmed by an advanced rank.

At the same time, Luna's vigilance increased.

Hmm?

I hadn't noticed before, but there was someone sleeping next to Fi.

"... Lynn?

I was Lynn, my contractor.

Even though the guilt of worrying is accompanied by an attempt, I seriously reflect on the fact that I used magic without considering the safety of my friends at all.

Thank him for everything.

If I hadn't disabled magic at that time, perhaps there would have been no one here.

I would be saved, but it was death that waited for me to kill the contractor.

"... Phi?

Good morning, Lynn.

"Good... you're awake."

"Yeah, I got a good night's sleep."

"Really... I see..."

The bell closed its eyes and fell asleep.

As soon as I saw the bear in my eyes that I didn't sleep much, I knew.

Good night, Lynn.

Fi didn't intend to leave this place until the bell woke up.

………

……

"Well, for now, we're both sitting right here."

"... yes"

Mio was worried about Fi at first, but as soon as breakfast was over, they sat down.

"You both know why they're sitting down, right?

"Yes"

Well, let's start with Fi.

"I let go of my magic without thinking about your safety."

Then the trick and Mio's fist hit Fi's head.

"It is because we are weak. I'm mad at Luna for saying that she was surprised when she suddenly attacked her and tried to kill her. Luna, are you in trouble?

"It's well-founded....."

"I'll ask you an excuse later. Next, bell"

"It's obviously not Luna when she taught Luna the magic of a cattle, but at the end of the sentence Luna's lord was badly said."

"That's right. Besides, you can't take control of Fi. Mom, I won't forgive you.

"Ugh... I'm sorry."

At that time, Mio exhaled a big sigh.

"... well, I couldn't do anything, but I'm not in a position to say it."

Others who listened silently also had a slightly darker vibe.

Did Mio catch that? Mio rushed over the subject.

"So, what's the rationale for Phi?

……

I felt a little nervous about Phi not trying to open my mouth, but the bell appealed "leave it to me" with my eyes, so I pulled it honestly.

"Fi, that's an order. Answer our questions."

"... okay."

Fi moves his heavy mouth as if he had noticed.

"The reason I tried to kill him... was because the Spirit told me so, too."

"Luna... who are you really?

A group of brave men who sympathize with Mio's surprise.

"Rather than being told, you should be right to say you heard me. The spirits around me were clearly trying to avoid him. I was totally scared."

"Scared? Why?

"He's dangerous, you should stay away from him. That conversation came into my ear... and I saw it at a glance. He's dangerous."

"Danger, danger... Luna..."

"Mio may not know, but there are many children who want to submit to someone they like."

"... masochist?

"I don't know what that is, but I sometimes hate people who have the ability to force themselves to obey because of their traits. And when you're stronger than yourself, you instinctively feel fear...."

"No way...."

"Yes, he's strong and capable of subjugating... much stronger than the Demon King when he feels like he fought."

……

It was Mio who decided not to be surprised about Luna anymore.

And the bell asks as if it remembers something.

"Ah, yes... why didn't Fi give in to Luna?

"As I said before, I didn't want other spirits to obey me... and if I gave in to him, I might have been obeyed."

"Hmm... well, one last thing."

Bell asks Luna the last question she asked.

"--- Why did you try to destroy the entrance to the labyrinth?

Phil was stunned.

I didn't think this question would come at all.

"No way... did you notice?

"Yeah, Luna told me. I don't care what you think caused Luna's bad mood, right? What was Phil up to?

"... I was definitely trying to destroy the entrance to that labyrinth. That labyrinth... subspace labyrinth."

After all, was that labyrinth a subspace labyrinth?

"I thought I was thin, too."

Verez and Berk were convinced, but they didn't understand anything else.

"A subspace labyrinth is a labyrinth that exists in subspace, unlike a labyrinth that sleeps directly underground. If it were a real labyrinth, it wouldn't be a big labyrinth off the base of 80 floors, but if it were a subspace, it would be possible... just..."

Verez stared at Fi for the first time.

"If you destroy the entrance to the subspace labyrinth, the people inside will be trapped in subspace. You knew about it and tried to destroy it?

"Yeah, that's right."

"... why?

"There was no spirit in that labyrinth. And every time I go down, the uneasy air gets thicker. There's obviously something there."

"What I'm asking is, why did you try to destroy the entrance without considering the others?"

Fei was a little surprised by the unprecedented tone of Veres.

"It's such a suspicious place. We need to make some sacrifices and get rid of them sooner."

At that moment, the bell appeared in front of Fi's eyes and struck him on the cheek.

"... Phi. What do you think your life is for?

"... life is life. There's only one thing that matters."

"Then why?

"So I told you. Sacrifice is necessary."

"What were you going to do if that was Phil's mistake!?

Until then.

"Stop fighting."

Mio entered to stop the fight between the two.

"You're preaching right now. Put yourself in position. And, Phil, you shouldn't say that much. We value our lives a little more than the rest of us."

"... okay."

"The bell is getting a little hot a bit faster. Ask me why before you do anything."

"... sorry"

In a dark atmosphere, Berk opened his mouth, which he hadn't spoken much before.

Well then, let's go crush the Dark Knight.

But what I talked about was the slightly skewed topic of the crusade proposal.
