After his successful escape, Arjano had already exited the royal castle and was on his way to his hideout.

His presence had been erased by magic, and his movements with the use of physical enhancements exceeded the speed at which a human could see him.

 He had been undetected by any knight or guard up to this point.

'It's been a while, Arjano."

 Suddenly, he was caught.

 The arm that had grabbed him is shredded by the impact of the sudden stop. Arjano takes a passive stance and stands up, immediately activating even recovery magic.

He sees Nicolas von Endenberg, a smiling man with a gentle smile on his face.

Nicolas is neither wearing armor nor is he working up magic.

 He had one hand in his pocket, and Argiano was extremely wary of it.

'Forgot to ask, do you need this arm?'

'No, I don't want to be handed a shredded arm. They say you forgot something, but you took it, didn't you?"

I did indeed. I'm sorry. Let's get rid of this one because it's in the way."

The arm that is separated from the body still has the resistance to the magic that the king of magic gave to himself. Nicolas, who easily incinerates that arm, is at least capable of harming Arjano with magic.

He is a very busy man," he said. I'm busy, and I'm trying to escape.

"If you have nothing to do with me, can't you even see your old friends?"

Are you serious? If you were still my friend, you wouldn't need to see me, but you're not. I'm not sure what you're talking about. Are you an idiot?"

'I'm sure. You even look different."

"Hey."

"Hmm. You don't have any appearance that I should be interested in in the first place. Your tone, your character, even your...'

"You're a dead man."

Arjano's presence swells explosively.

The next moment, he strengthened his original body ability with magic and flashed his sword so fast that his hand was blurred.

He aimed at Nicolas' neck. The rush of dense killing intent becomes a sword flash, and Nicolas intercepts it with his spear, as if he had prepared it before.

 The tip of the spear, with its smooth trajectory, entangled the sword, which was then swept outward.

The sword was disarmed, and Nicolas immediately pulled back his spear, but did not fire a follow-up attack.

"I'll leave it at that for today,. It's no fun to win against you who has sealed off your true colors".

". You've been running away from us for so long, and now you're going to win because you abandoned us? I don't like jokes that aren't funny".

'I didn't mean it as a joke. A long time has passed since then. I've trained myself well enough to beat the man you are now, if not the man you were then."

'If that's the case, I'll kill you right now. I don't know how much longer we're willing to...}

"That's why I brought him into this world."

"What?"

'That's what I came here to tell you today."

Nicolas' eyes are cold and cold as he opens his mouth, though with smile on his face.

 Argiano's eyes widened as he faced him. Arjano's eyes widened. As someone who knew Nicolas in the past, this transformation was unbelievable.

"I know that your wish will come true in the not-too-distant future. . Then there will be no need for you to continue your clownish imitation."

'It's none of your business. I don't like this tone of voice. I like my accent better than I thought I would."

'Don't you think that's a little out of character?"

'I like it in that way, too. You know, it's easier to tell when it's sharp."

"I see. Then I won't insist on it."

"I won't insist on it. I told you it's none of your business. So, what? I can walk away now?'

'Yes, but one last thing, I need you to give a note to your boss.'

"To Veldra? Sure, but what is it?"

Nicholas erased the spear he had created with his magic and stared at Argiano from the front with serious eyes.

"I plan to resurrect the demigod."

"--Which do you mean by that?"

'You don't have to tell me, do you? There are more possibilities than ever before in this time. Maybe this will be my last chance."

My boss said the same thing.

"I knew he had come to that same conclusion. I knew it was coming when he was poking around Schneizel and Almire."

"That's what I meant. So, is there anything else? I'm scared that my followers are going to come after me soon, right? Do I need to get out of here?"

"I'm really done here, . This is really over, so you can go now."

Before Nicolas could finish, Arjano quickly resume his escape.

And Nicolas also vanished as if to cover up the fact that he had been there, and no one remained behind.
