- On the periphery of the "Vastree Sea", the assembly place of the Bright Alliance.

For the nineteen members of the crusade who had finally arrived, they didn't expect that everyone had just reported their guilds and names to each other, and before they even had time to start the battle plan, they encountered an unexpected enemy.

“…… Mr. Kildas, you feel it too. ”

Keeping the guild members behind her, Kira, who looked tense as soon as Erin appeared, clearly realized that the woman in front of her was very different from the magicians she had come into contact with before.

Wanting to protect his juniors in the next battle, this man, who had not been serving as the 'Holy Ten' for a short time, felt a lot of pressure.

"Ah...... Looks like there's a terrible guy here. ”

（…… I've never heard of such a character in this guild...... Is this magic above the old man?! ）

Having also walked to the front of his guild, Kildas also put away his relaxed face, gathering his magic power in his hand to guard against attacks that might strike at any time.

In the perception of the two strongest people on the scene, the magic of the woman in front of her was far beyond common sense.

(Damn!) What the hell has happened lately, have nameless monsters popped up one after another?! ）

Thinking of the battle between the brown-haired girl and the Apocalyptic Black Dragon he had seen not long ago, Kildas's heart thumped again.

(If it's her...... The words of the first generation...... ）

“…… Tut. ”

Biting his lip, Kildas frowned, ashamed of what he had just thought.

The saying that it is good to enjoy the shade under the big tree is not false at all, knowing that there is still that kind of god-like existence in the guild, once in the face of unfathomable enemies, it is true that Kildas has a lax dependence on others.

Fortunately, this strong-willed man quickly got rid of the 'shadow', and cowardice before fighting is a big taboo.

(Hi ah...... Isn't it true that the man who Lord Zela said that he could not be 'polite' actually woke up from my "Personality Attachment Despair" in an instant? ）

The corners of his mouth were raised happily, and from the moment Erin appeared, the trial had actually begun.

With her temper, the first to be tested is naturally the strongest among them.

(And what about the other one...... ）

Slightly wandering his gaze to the right of Kildas, the performance of the so-called "Holy Ten" was a little unsatisfactory compared to the two.

However, although he was nervous to the point of panting, he was still very responsible and did not retreat, and stood firmly at the front.

（…… Hehe, if this bald head wants to become a climate, he must be honed for at least five years. ）

Lowering the brim of her hat, Erin had almost figured out the strength and positioning of these people.

(Okay, so how do you 'distribute' it next...... ）

……

"Wow...... Oh no, that aunt seems to be getting excited......"

Sitting in the chief audience seat in the villa, watching the image coming from the crystal ball, Brantish, who was lying on the sofa, pouted his lips unabashedly.

"Hehe, Lanti, have you forgotten, this place is also in the 'setting' of Erin's predecessors."

"Babble——?!

A cold feeling ran down her spine, and a blue-faced Brantish looked miserably at the brunette girl sitting in the main seat amid Urrutia's wicked laughter.

"Boss ......"

"Ask for yourself, fool."

"Woo. I don't want to experience 'that'......"

Shaking her head with a smile, Zela didn't pay any attention to the girl who was in despair, but looked at the 'little princess' in the guild.

Speaking of which, a few years ago, after a certain prince from the 'other world' sent the 'lost' Wendy to be taken in by them, this little girl was the only dragon slayer brought up by Anna.

And because the little guy has a simple and kind personality, the members of the guild who have just come out of the darkness are healed by her smile and take care of her as the youngest sister.

"Wendy, are you really going to participate in this battle too?"

"Ahh Yes! ”

She sat up straight like a student whose name was called by the teacher, and the cute-looking little girl nodded energetically.

"Teacher Erin has already taught me how to use the 'Dragon Power', and I want to do my part for the guild!"

“…… yes, don't be too forceful. ”

There was a flash of clarity in her eyes, no wonder Erin told her that Wendy was already able to take charge of herself last time, and that she had learned to use the power of the dragon.

(hmm...... Since it's all right, will you wait for Erin next...... ）

Glancing at the guild members who were ready again, she was still very relieved about the strength of these girls who she had watched grow up since she was a child.

If they don't release water.

It's just that in addition to 'people', there is also a little guy with special abilities.

The kitten who was held in Wendy's arms was silent from the beginning, and the humanized cat's face was full of shock and bewilderment.

(Just those...... What the hell is the picture I 'see' ......?! ）

……

********************************************************************************************************************

- Headquarters of the Gates of Hades, Allegria of the Underworld.

“…… This is really surprising, I didn't expect that guild to hide such a 'secret', and Maldo Gil was extremely surprised. ”

On the throne strewn with dry bones, a young man with long hair looked at his captives on his knees with contempt and smiled strangely.

"I—I've told you everything I know, can you let me go?!"

(How so?!) It's just a dark guild, actually, it's actually ......!! ）

If Makarov had been here, he might have been able to recognize the man who had fallen to the ground, tortured beyond recognition.

The guy who begged for mercy from the throne was his son, who was expelled from the guild for hurting and using his companions, and was completely in darkness, and is now the president of the independent guild "Crow's Tail".

With his slightly clever mind and small accomplished strength, Ivan Dolea, who has been oscillating between light and darkness in disguise, finally thinks the time is ripe after being joined by Brunot Squaga, a strong man who uses gravity magic.

As long as he defeats the uncrowned king of Hades, who rarely moves in the darkness, his guild can become the new king and reign over the entire dark world.

However, this ambitious man had no idea that the decision he had made sent everything he had secretly planned into the realm of no return.

Because the "Gate of Hades" is not a guild of "humans" at all.

"Huh...... Wildflower, what did our 'partner' say about that guild's movements? ”

Ignoring Ivan, who was struggling on the ground, Maldo Gil, the "Hades", looked at the demon woman who was stepping on Ivan's head.

"Yes, Lord Mardo Gil, he seems to have sent us a number of pieces for temptation."

"So the subordinates feel ......"

After pressing Ivan's face deep into the ground, the demon woman who knelt on one knee bowed her head respectfully and carefully said her advice.

"This is a good opportunity to rain down the demonic hammer on the inferior humans!"
