"Congratulations. Some of the adventurers understood how wonderful Mr. Lemé was. I'm glad, very much. It was a short time, but I was able to have a dream time. I'll never forget it."
Mira's voice was trembling.
He's pushing his emotions and he's pushing my back.
You're laughing, but you look like you're crying.
Oh, you're right, Mr. Aerial.
She's great, she's a nice person.
But I was sad.
"Mr. Mira, you think I'm gonna take it on?
"... Weren't you originally an adventurer and aspiring to be number one... in demons you can only raise your name as a Remegeton as it stands. You have to hide your face too... unlike the brave man you admired in your child's heart..."
"Mira's dream is not a second candidate."
"... So you're going to kick the invitation to first place and stay in the Demon King's Army? Why?"
"How could..."
I take Mira's hand and stand up.
"What, Mr. Leme?
"Mr. Blitz, I'll be right back, so please wait."
"Ooh, ooh."
Outside the store.
Found Mr. Aerial hiding his face in the hood of his jacket.
"Um!"
Speaking on that back, he immediately stopped and looked back.
"Oh, have you made up your mind yet?"
"Yes."
"Well, I'm glad. So..."
"I'm really honored that you invited me. But let me say no."
Mr. Aerial is not surprised and says softly.
"Can I ask why?
"I wanted to be number one. First of all, I didn't want you to let me in."
He smiles with joy at my response.
He smiled like a boy.
"... Hmm. I see, you're Han. Certainly the apex is something to be raised and not asked to be pulled up. Apparently, I made an innocent offer."
"No, I was so glad to know that some adventurers would recognize me."
"Yeah, but you've already found a place. Right?
… did you notice there as well?
"Yes."
Nod.
Mr. Aerial offered me his hand. I put out my hand, too, and I shake hands.
"I'm looking forward to it. How can you be the best? [M] You have to defeat us to do that."
How far the hell are you discerning?
The fact that I haven't given up fighting seems to be telling.
"When the time comes, I will win"
"Excellent. You can't retire yet."
He laughed nicely and now it's time to go back to the inn.
