And that’s all folks! Thanks for sticking around all this time and make sure to check out the other series we’ve done if you’re interested. Bysers~
A few days after the final confrontation with the black-winged one, which happened without anybody knowing, Kyle walked down the street of a certain town in the humanfolk territory.
“To think I’d have to exterminate another dragon,” Kyle muttered with a sigh.
He was currently heading to the southern part of the continent, an ancient battlefield once destroyed completely by a war between dragons. And it was all because of Dragon King Zeurus. The Evil Dragon Bikiol who should have died in the battle thousands of years ago, was actually just in a fake state of death, and there was a chance he was still active out there. But since they didn’t want to poke the bear and trigger his full revival, they let him be. If he were to grow violent, it could bring great danger to the world, so Zeurus wanted Kyle to confirm if the Evil Dragon was still alive, and deal with him if he was.
“Well, Zeurus really helped us out a bunch, we gotta repay him in some way.”
Despite badmouthing him at every corner, Shildonia now spoke highly of her friend.
“And we intend to help out as best as we can.”
“I’m tired of going on all these errands all the time…”
Irumera and Ghrud had joined Kyle, too, but he was pretty much used to that.
“And once you’re done with this, Luiza-sama needs your help with something else,” Yuriga commented while following, reminding Kyle of Demon Lord Luiza’s need for help.
According to her, the so-called Fog of Death has been spreading, and if you come in contact with it, it wears you down mentally. Right now, it was only confirmed to have taken over a single territory, but it was slowly spreading, and that would continue to be the case until it was stopped.
“I’m sorry, I actually had a dream of Mera-sama where she asked me for help as well…”
This time, Sakira spoke up. It appears that the god of the demons has been active, handing out trials and blessings. Depending on the use of the blessing, it could destroy the world and its rules, so this had to be kept in check.
“And also, the documents we found in the ruins the other day leads me to believe that there are other facilities out there. The monster in there can devour anything and grow thanks to that,” Shildonia whispered to only let Kyle know.
If this monster was left to its own ways, it could bring great danger to the world. As more and more problems showed up, Kyle’s face stiffened.
“We’re in a lot of trouble, eh?”
“…Yeah, it’s not even funny.”
Lieze’s comment made Kyle sigh. He planned to leave the public eye with a little honor and spend his days in peace…but his dream had been completely shattered.
“B-But it does sound a bit fun, yes. Going on a journey like this…” Sakira tried to brighten the mood a bit, and Kyle had to agree.
“…Yeah, it’s going to get lively.”
Kyle looked at his party and started to feel emotional. Ever since his journey had begun, he gathered many new allies, and they were still growing. For the fog in the demon territory, Gou’s Golems should help, so they were on their way to the Mining City Callan. Regarding the god of the demons, the help of Flame-Eye or Poison-Needle would help. The all-eating monster was close to the forest of the dark elves, and with Basques present, they should be able to handle that. Either way, things will absolutely get busy from now on.
“…Also, why the hell are you here?”
“Should I not be?” asked Seran in response.
The plan was for him to head over to Homirou since Luiza asked for it, but for some reason, he showed up and joined Kyle instead.
“I get you ran away, but what happened?” Kyle asked, to which Seran reluctantly answered.
“Well, that old hag suddenly showed up, and just when I wondered if they’d start fighting, they are actually getting along pretty well.”
“Oh my…” Kyle imagined the scenery and suddenly felt a shiver.
Their first meeting was absolutely the worst, yet they were on a similar wavelength.
“That old hag seems to be pretty comfortable over there, which only makes it worse for me though, so I ran away.”
“Isn’t that good? That means Luiza’s getting along with her mother-in-law.”
“Don’t say that, I just wanna live freely,” Seran sighed and tried to think of ways to get out of the situation he found himself in.
“You’re starting to settle down a bit huh, Seran? Well, in Kyle’s case, you’ve got something else to show responsibility for. Erina-chan is way too attached to you.”
“What kind of person is that Erina-chan anyway?” asked Sakira.
“She’s a good girl, so don’t worry. And isn’t Ruktera the real problem? I feel like her emotions for Kyle are more than just that of an ally.”
“Both mother and daughter…? No, that can’t…But, I’m also worried about Basques. They’re often together, right?”
“…”
Lieze, Sakira, Urza, and then even Minagi all discussed their own set of problems, but Kyle pretended he couldn’t hear anything.
“I just wanna live a peaceful life…” Kyle muttered, but these words were lost in the storm of approaching problems.
And so, Kyle managed to become a hero, just as he had planned, and brought an end to the war between humanfolk and demons. However, his life was far from over. Nobody may know what kind of end awaits him, but it probably wasn’t anything peaceful. Still, Kyle’s New Saga will continue on.
