Once the decision was made, time was of the essence.
Riding in a carriage with Yuzuriha, who was still frozen in shock, we headed to the Duke’s mansion. As she finally snapped out of it and started processing information, Yuzuriha scolded me.

The hundreds of volunteers Trao had gathered for the Demon King subjugation gradually dropped out during their journey to the Fairy Lake. Now, only slightly over a hundred chosen ones remained.

“Huh… A student? Just… a regular one?”
“Yeah, that’s right. Everything I said before was a lie.”
“Hmph… well, whatever. It doesn’t really matter.”
Though she seemed a bit confused by Shion’s response, she quickly brushed it off with a “If you say so, then I guess that’s how it is.”
“Well then, Shion. Thanks for today. I guess I’ll give you a little bit of my gratitude.”
With those words, the girl quickly turned on her heel and walked away into the street without looking back.… Read more

“Good.”
Lily murmured with relief at my response. Her face was as expressionless as ever, but it seems she was worried about me. With her help, I sat up and looked around.
It looked like I was on top of a large wooden structure resembling a ship. When I looked up, I saw the Salamander holding onto the wood extending from the sides of the ship, like the framework of a roof, and carrying us.… Read more

The knight, thinking he would be praised, smiled with a flushed face.
“I’m sorry, but you’re disqualified,”
Trao told the knight matter-of-factly.
“Why?! I fought that Griffin on equal terms!”… Read more
