After placing the bodies of all Mr./Ms. of Rose's men in coffins, the first thing they did was send Keira to her guardian, Gref Mr./Ms..

Kira had accompanied her on a dangerous journey for two weeks, and Mr./Ms. Gref seemed relieved that she had returned safely.

After sending Kira away, I dropped off Amako and Nea at the dormitory near the training camp where Nagi Mr./Ms. and Hannah Mr./Ms. were staying, and I headed to the dormitory where the personnel dispatched from the Ringle Kingdom were staying.

 

"Burlin is...... Well, I'm sleeping. I knew."

"Fugu"

 

As soon as he checked the stables, he was curled up like a ball on the straw.

While he was smiling bitterly, the door of the dormitory opened and a girl with cream-colored hair came out.

 

"Oh! Welcome back! Usato-kun!!"

"Oh, yes, I'm back now."

"I've been waiting for you! Come in, come in!"

 

A smiling Uluru Mr./Ms. led her into the dormitory.

The room I used at the beginning of my time here seems to be still vacant, so I put my luggage there and change my clothes before going down to the living room where Mr./Ms. Uluru is.

In the living room were not only Uluru Mr./Ms. but also Mr./Ms. Ark and his colleague Mr./Ms. Kurumia.

 

"Huh? What about everyone else, Mr./Ms.?"

 

Alc Mr./Ms. seems to be in the kitchen preparing dinner, but there are only two people at the table, Mr./Ms. Kurumia and Mr./Ms. Uluru.

Mr./Ms. Kurumia answers my questions.

 

"I'm going to be on patrol, and while Lord Usato's search is out, I'm going to help with the city's security."

"Oh, yes, after I left......

 

I'm going to help with security...... It's good that it's so accepted.

 

"Hehehe, I also helped out in the city, and we became good friends a lot."

"It was tough here, but hey, Uluru Mr./Ms. just as active as Suzune Mr./Ms.."

"Hahaha"

 

Mr./Ms. Uluru isn't a lifesaver in Itachi either.

As I was laughing at their conversation, Mr./Ms. looked at me and tilted her head slightly.

 

"It's been a tough journey."

"What?"

"I can't believe you're that tired."

 

…… Maybe it's on your face? I thought that the Demon King couldn't help it, but I didn't expect that Uluru would see through Mr./Ms..

As I involuntarily put my hand on my cheek, Mr./Ms. smiled proudly and put her finger to my chin.

 

"Itachi doesn't work at the clinic, does he? I don't have a patient who can't see through me."

"I understand why Mr./Ms. Olga can't get her head around you."

"Ehehe"

 

If you think about it, you're right.

She sees more patients than I do, so you know what?

 

"Don't be too reckless, okay? I know that Usato-kun faints all the time."

"Yes......"

 

I don't know what it is, but there are things that come normally because it's a rare way to be scolded.

Let's reflect honestly.

It's true that I'm being reckless.

 

"I'm going to rest for a while, because the Demon King told me to."

"Did the Demon King tell you ......?"

 

Mr./Ms. Kurmia looks surprised.

That's because the image of the Demon King in general is scary.

 

"Sorry to keep you waiting."

 

And here, Mr./Ms. Alc brings food.

Stews of meat and vegetables, salads, and other dishes by Mr./Ms. Alc, who has been familiar with since the days of handing over letters, are lined up on the table.

…… Should I have called Amako and the others?

Over there, Mr./Ms. and Nea are cooking dinner.

 

"After all, Mr./Ms.'s food is delicious."

"Hahaha, it's worth it."

 

Without him, the journey to deliver letters might have been much darker.

While I was enjoying the food with that in mind, Mr./Ms. Alc, who was sitting opposite me, opened her mouth.

 

"It must have been hard to explore the demon realm."

"Hahaha, that's already ......, but it was quite fun to see all kinds of monsters."

"Are you a monster...... May I ask?"

"Yes, I don't mind."

 

I talked about the demons I encountered in the Demon Realm.

Hoobird, Venom Monkey, and a giant sea dragon encountered in the ruins.

When I explained the details of the mission without mentioning it, Mr./Ms., who was interested in what I had to say, crossed her arms as if she was impressed.

 

"Is it a giant monster?"

"It was about the size of an evil dragon, and I think it was a Nushi one."

"How did you fight it off?"

「……」

 

It flew through the air like a jet plane and frightened people by throwing magic bullets like missiles...... I know I'm going to be pulled over if I say that, so let's keep it muddy here.

 

"I was a little scared and escaped from that gap."

「…… I see."

"......No, no, I see, Arc, isn't it? Now, it's clear that the conversation has flown out."

 

I thought it was muddy, but Mr./Ms. Arc could see .......

But I did something bad to that water dragon.

Even though I couldn't help it, I ruined my territory, and I got involved in a fight with Kayla and stunned her.

 

"Hoobard and Venom Monkey were completely different from what we knew."

"What, how do you feel about it?"

"They are violent, they are getting bigger."

"Hey, I don't want to imagine it."

 

Hoobard is a cute blue pigeon, so when Mr./Ms. hears that, her cheeks twitch.

 

"You've also encountered a big cow monster."

"Hey, how big is it?"

"It's about three times as big as Burlin."

"It's a big !?."

 

It's completely beyond the size of a normal cow.

Even so, it's still a small level compared to the Evil Dragon.

 

"It didn't seem to have a name, so I named it Twin Horn Bull, or Twibre for short."

"Oh, yes."

「…… After all, it's on the same level as a tin Mr./Ms. ......."

 

I hear you, Mr./Ms. Kurumia.

Mr./Ms. Kurumia hurriedly shook her hand at me as I looked at her with jito eyes.

 

"Or a monster that has become larger to fit the environment, and a monster that is now thought to be extinct...... If Mr./Ms. finds out about this, it will be a big deal."

"Yes, I'm going to brag about it as soon as I get back to the Lingle Kingdom."

"Didn't I just say it's going to be hard......?"

 

I'm sure you'll be frustrated, but I definitely want to talk about it.

After all, if I had the opportunity to go to the demon realm next time, I would like to take my seniors with me.

It's going to be fun.

 

"Now that you've returned from exploring the Demon Realm, will Lord Usato return to lead the exploration team again?"

「…… Hmmm."

 

Mr./Ms.'s question bothers me a little.

I don't think I need to lead the squad anymore.

I've taught them how to train, and I know they'll continue to train when I'm gone.

 

"We're going to be away soon, although we'll give some guidance at the end...... I'll leave the rest to Koga."

"Usato-kun, is it okay to leave it to him?" He's pretty ......."

"He's a bit of a jerk, but he's doing a good job, and he's about to change, just like he is in the Demon Lord's Realm now."

 

Well, what kind of ...... They think they're friends.

I don't know what they think, and I don't want to say it to their faces.

 

"So until the day I return, I thought I'd help out with this job."

"Okay, let's do it together, Usato-kun!"

"Together...... What are you doing?"

 

You mean security?

Mr./Ms. Uluru smiles at me as I tilt my head.

 

"Help all the demon tribes!"

"Oh, I was just saying."

"Yes!"

 

…… It could be good.

My role here is almost over.

There is still a timeline before the return of the Ringle Kingdom, and above all, I have been training my subordinates for the past month and have had little interaction with the people of the city.

 

"My impression of the people here is probably the weird people who run around the city."

"I don't think you're a weird person, but I don't think you're wrong."

"It's not going to be like the Ringle Kingdom."

 

I am aware of it.

I didn't mess around for training, though.

It is not my intention to return home as a former soldier of the Demon King's army, Mr./Ms., who is scared and recognized as a strange person by the general public.

In fact, the impression of Mr./Ms. of the soldiers of the war era has not only not been changed, but has even worsened.

 

"Then why don't we appeal to people here and clear up misunderstandings?"

"Well, Usato-sama? Isn't there any misunderstanding or anything when you say human appeal?"

"Let's help you, let me do ......!!"

"I did it!"

 

If you're going to do it, you've got to be serious.

There must be a lot of work to be done here as reconstruction has just begun.

Let's make use of it, even if it's a small amount.

 

"Huh, a business trip rescue team, a handyman in the city Mr./Ms. ed...... That's what ......!!"

"It's going to be fun!"

"Yes!"

 

I nod to Mr./Ms. Uluru.

The policy of returning to the Ringle Kingdom was also determined.

What do you need to think about afterwards...... No...... Yes, there is.

 

"Mr./Ms. Nero?"

 

Mr./Ms. Nero is deeply involved in the deaths of Rose's men.

I ...... whether I should tell him about them in their coffins.
