1 - Reunion
I was confronting Margo.
Margo Lascada, the hero knight of the Luphus Empire.
Even now, two years later, he didn't seem to change.
He didn't grow like Riot, didn't prοstιtutε to multiple people for power like Irina, and didn't repeat outrageous magical experiments like Valery.
As a hero, he seemed to continue to fight the remnants of the Demon King's army.
But...... it's just a facade.
If he was a true hero, he would have opposed sacrificing me two years ago.
I will never forget the expression of relief and joy that he had when I was sacrificed.
And then──Sure enough, he was working with the demons.
"What is your aim, Margo?"
I kept a distance of at least 10 meters so that I wouldn't suddenly wipe him out with [Fixed Damage].
"Shea, Yulin. Stop him if he's about to enter my skill range. I don't want to kill him easily."
"Understood."
"Leave it to me"
My [Subordination] girls nodded reverently.
Shea held her magic sword with [Dissection] skill, and Yulin drifted the aura of a demon from her whole body.
They're already in a battle-ready stance.
"Why are you alive, Chrome"
Margo stepped back with a pale face.
"Moreover, your hair is...... also your limbs are so skinny......"
"You're surprised at the change in my appearance? My hatred, my grudges against you guys──I could never forget it and kept holding it. That's how I survive."
I smirked.
"Why does the power of [Darkness] belong to......? It can't be, the effect of that ritual──"
"I'm here the first who ask the question."
I released the black chain.
"Ugh!? I, can't move."
It bound Margo's entire body.
"But if it's my treasure sword──"
"I won't let you use it."
As he tried to reach for the sword on his waist, I tightened the chains.
"U......Guuuhh......"
Margo frowned in pain.
His sword, "The 77-forms Gale Thunder King Sword", was a first-class magic weapon.
I didn't think it can break my black chain, but it's better not to let him use it.
"Why are you with the demons, The Hero Knight?"
I lifted the edge of my mouth sarcastically.
"Th-that is......"
Margo clammed up.
"... Yuno has become too strong. He has power enough to defeat even that Demon Lord Vilgarodomus...... but it's too much power for humans. Eventually, he will run amok and then will destroy the world──That's what I heard."
"Heard? From whom?"
"──from God."
Margo told solemnly.
"What?"
"To be precise, the source of [Light] that Yuno has is── [Nirvana]"
"[Nirvana]...... you said?"
This is the first time I've heard that name, and I raised my eyebrows.
"......Do you know it, Rakshasa?"
Then I called Rakshasa.
[It is the opposite of [Abyss], which is the terminal of our [Darkness], Master.]
A beautiful woman in black appeared and explained.
"I dared to jump into the demon-side in order to stop Yuno from running amok."
Margo said in a dignified tone.
"I don't want to side with the demons, but my interests are aligned with theirs. That's why I'm working with them ──even if it means I have to face the stigma of being a knight."
I don't know how much I should believe him.
He probably didn't tell me the hundred percent truth.
There must be some lies mixed within.
But on the other hand, there are indications that he is speaking a mixture of truth and falsehood.
──Shall I let him for a while?
"I get it."
I withdraw the black chain to my hand and released Margo from restraining.
"Chrome-sama......?"
Shea and Yulin stared at me.
Raksasa was keeping a smile on her face.
"I've been asked to help the demons. If you're working with Frangulas and the others, there's no reason to fight you for the time being."
......Yes, for the time being.
I'll get my revenge eventually, but I'll postpone it for a little while.
When Franjulous invited me to his hideout,
She said, "I have some hints for you to further cultivate your powers".
I demanded her to show me the "hints" but she said it would take a few days to prepare.
......Is she planning to do something with?
Or is it really so?
Well, if she's up to something, I'll just wipe her out.
With [Fixed Damage], all of her.
"If I further cultivate my powers──will you be okay with that? What if I use that power to crush you?"
I asked Frangulas.
"You wouldn't do such a deceitful thing, would you? You were able to keep your reasoning from being consumed by the [Darkness] while kept deepening it──to do that, You have to have a very pure heart."
"Is that all your bases?"
"I have faith in your heart and soul."
Frangoulas smiled.
"Consistency. The danger. I even find it endearing."
"...... Are you, hitting on Chrome-sama?"
"...... Whenever there's an opportunity, there's always a flirt. You must never let your guard down."
I don't know why Shea and Yulin are glaring at me.
"This way, please. I'll guide you to the guest room."
Frangulas urged us with a lustrous smile on her face.
"We're all in the same room, huh......"
I muttered to myself as I was shown to the room.
Moreover, the bεd was large enough to sleep five people.
"If you'd like, I can prοvide you with a bεdmatε."
Frangulas smiled.
"Or perhaps──those two would like to take on that role?"
"B, b, b, b, b, b, b, b-bεdmatε!?"
Shea's voice trailed off.
"W-we...... are going to prεsεnt οur chastιtιes to Chrome-sama....... I knew that that time would come one day, and finally......"
Huft, Yulin sighed in annoyance.
No, wait.
"These two are just traveling companions. They are not such partners."
"If so, I shall get anοther wοman."
Frangulas said immediately.
"I'll pass."
"Oh? Do you prefer men to women, Chrome-sama?"
"That's not what I meant."
I glared at Frangulas resentfully.
