「Y-You are…!」
From the darkness, the vague figure of the one who talked appeared slowly.
An eerie face is attached to the irregular outline that is swaying like a ghost.
――Honestly, I didn’t really recognize it.
「…Who is it again?」
「Oi, don’t mess with me! Did you forget! Who I am!」
「Ah, so there was such a scam, I should be careful and tell Ariante about this.」
「What do you mean by scam! Even though you prevented me from taking over the water saint! Do you remember the name “Kyo”!」
「Err…ahh! Come to think of it that’s right!」
Although he was the first Demon King Army’s executive that we defeated, it was quite unimpressive because Rēko suddenly defeated him immediately after the engagement. The name “Kyo” just reminds me of that.
「Did you remember now…」
「Sorry. I haven’t been remembering much recently.」
「You’re lying. You obviously just categorized me as something that doesn’t matter.」
It’s hard to argue with that.
After bowing lightly while apologizing, I started to shift the topic.
「So why are you in such a place?」
「Back then,my alter ego had been purified by you.」
「That’s true isn’t it. Nostalgic.」
「I’m the residue from that time.」
The past “Delicious leaf monopoly case” is recalled in my mind.
「Because inside of you is so uncomfortable, I almost died…」
「I’m sorry. I have aspired to be a bad guy after that.」
「I thought I was about to be stabbed. I’m too scared of the idea of a weeding dragon. I doubt that you are just trying to take revenge on me along with that saint.」
Because my eyes started to get a little sticky, I turned away.
「Well, it’s been a long time, but I’m busy right now. We’ll continue again if we meet again somewhere.」
「You’re busy? What are you hurrying about in a place like this?」
When it was pointed out, my consciousness became clear.
That’s right. It’s not like this is a roadside chat right now. It’s a space that I do not understand――I’m trapped in my heart and I can’t do anything about it.
「Oh, yeah. Because this is my heart, you appeared. You were that kind of demon.」
「That’s too dull…」
「Well, if that’s the case, are you going to take me over?」
When I asked, there was a sign of sighing.
The floating “Kyo” soul flies closer to me.
「There is nothing to take over, as you are already taken over by another guy――that masked demon. There is nothing for me.」
「Is that so?」
「That’s right. I mean, you really don’t understand the situation do you.」
「Sorry.」
“Kyo”’s soul went up and down as if exhausted.
「Well, when you wake up,quickly regain control of your consciousness. You, who have purified me should be able to do it.」
「Uun… I think that will be impossible.」
「Why?」
I remembered what the fake kin said.
「You… The executives of the Demon King Army were originally made to lose to me. I think that kind of purification only work on you.」
「Don’t be silly.」
“Kyo” denied with a strong tone.
「I am the executive of the Demon King Army. We are definitely not your food. Are you saying that my defeat is a farce play designed by that masked guy?」
「Even so, it will be difficult for me to get out from here.」
「You fool.」
Contrary to his words, my feet, which were pitch black, became a little brighter. The light from the “Kyo”soul became more powerful.
「Um… maybe you can help me?」
「Why do I have to help you. I have no such duty.」
However, his words continued.
「Whether you win or lose, I will just be sightseeing. Either way, I can laugh happily.」
I stepped just one step ono the muddy ground.
The ground illuminated by the light of the soul can be stepped upon firmly.
I wanted to thank him, but he glared at me with such an insanely scary face, so I hurriedly forward.
I don’t know if there is one, but for the time being, let’s find an exit.
