Is the Strongest in Another World a Hero? A Demon Lord? No! it’s a Fairy ~desu! - Chapter 123.1
“It’s Arena… that’s…”
“Yeah, Aidle is fighting. And it looks like he’s going all out, too.”
The moment the split-body Aidle’s program ended at La Veil Radd, a white and black light pierced the distant sky, obliterating all the clouds in the area, including above La Veil Radd. The sky instantly became clear and blue, and soon after that a tremendous roar from far away reached us. It was as if every single shot were aimed at La Veil Radd, chipping away at the mountains that stood in its way.
Mika had no idea who Aidle was fighting, but
“Aidle… you’ve done it for the first time. Are you sure…”
“What do you mean, Cielo, who is Aidle fighting?”
To these words, Cielo replied, lowering her volume as much as possible.
“If I am not mistaken, she is fighting Hinomoto-sama with the slave collar removed… the [Demon] her.”
“What!!!? Why? Why is Sacchan in demon form?”
“Don’t shout about it, too loud. If people hear you, what would happen.”
La Veil quickly approached and pressed Mika’s face to her chest, covering her mouth. It seems that a momentary touch of softness succeeded in suppressing her emotions.
We all formed a small circle and the girls’ private conversation began.
“Cielo told Aidle that we were going to solve Hinomoto’s problem. I don’t know why Demon’s skill was attached, but Aidle promised to get rid of it, so that’s what happened.”
“But I can’t believe that a brave man could become a Demon…and that it would be Sacchan…I wonder if even Aidle would have trouble winning…”
“That’s true. But even if we go there, I think it will be extremely difficult to win, and we might even lose. Even with my evolved power, I wouldn’t be able to support them…”
The trouble with Hinomoto is that, unlike the other heroes, she is one of the five who [Defeating the Demon King]. As a [Demon] with status unmatched by the others, from the perspective of Mika and La Veil who knew a little bit about the [Demon], it was nothing but fear.
“I’m sorry… I just said that.”
“Don’t worry about it Cielo, I’m sure Aidle would have done it herself anyway. It was absolutely the right thing to do in the first place. I’m going to go with the Pope and calm the people down. I have to explain this to them… without mentioning Demon, of course.”
It is easy to imagine that if it were known that the Demon, which was supposed to have been destroyed in this generation, existed, the story would surely spread from La Veil Radd to the rest of the world and cause great panic.
Fortunately, the Fairy Magic of Quad has shut out all sound and air tremors from the public, but Arena said that if there is another light like the one we just saw, the anxiety will increase.
Hearing this, Cielo thought for a few shuns, then immediately nodded her head and stood next to the Pope to begin her speech. Seeing this, Arena also turned to La Veil and the others.
“I’m going to be [in sync] with Aidle to provide thought support, so I won’t be able to do anything for a while, but is there anything you want to say?”
“”Goodluck!!!””
Arena nodded broadly, sat down and closed her eyes.
