“…Why did you follow me? Descartes.”

“If it was going to be called Descartes, is there a need to call it that first?”

“We are interfering with the trip, Descartes.”

“… Since my father is anxious about sending just the two of you, how can I stop him from sending me, a former saint, as well? It is my father’s will, so we must all follow it.”

Lilin and Petrania began a trip not just for the two of them, but as a group of three, including Descartes.

The first place we went to was the desert.

“The glory of the evil god religion in the past has faded to nothing. It is fortunate that we still believe in our father here.”

“…Let’s go into the royal castle first. These are also people who follow their father’s will.”

“I said he was a prophet. If I meet Orphes sometime during my journey, I will have a lot to ask him too.”

I was treated to a lot of delicious food at the castle and was even given a temporary place to stay.

This was the mansion where Damien stayed in the past.

And after three days in the desert, we moved on to the snowy fields.

“Arpelius! It’s been a while!”

“…His voice is still loud. Even though his body is old and pale, he is still chasing after the evil spirit…”

“Hehe, isn’t that something that can come to an old friend?”

Descartes smiled happily throughout his journey.

Petrania thought it was because he was picking up traces of the past, and Lilin thought it was just because his personality had become so toxic.

In the past, with the sole intention of making the evil religion into the best religion, he was the most efficient person to recruit everyone, but now, perhaps because of the passage of time, his personality has become very soft.

That’s why I thought that I might be able to let out a laugh like that.

“Next… should we go to the Tower of Destruction? No, it would be good to visit the Demon World. I guess we should clear up any misunderstandings, right?”

“Did you say that you would personally go and see the demons you hate so much?”

“At least because of the minimal greetings they gave before, it has become cleaner than in the past. And aren’t they interacting from time to time?”

Lilin thought that Descartes had really become docile as he got older.

Obviously, if it were in the past, I would have screamed that I would tear all the demons to pieces.

“Then let’s go to the demon world next time!”

So the three headed to the Demon World, and it took quite some time to resolve the misunderstanding.

In the end, they were traitors who abandoned the devil and joined the evil religion, and had already been stigmatized among them for a long time.

However, unlike in ancient times, the relationship between the Evil Gods and the Demon World is good now, and it is because so much time has passed.

“Baal, it’s been a while.”

“Yes, it’s been a while. Petrania.”

That was the end of their greeting.

Because the two of them just wanted to bury the past in the past.

Petrania turned her eyes away from Baal, and rather than looking at her, Baal ended their business lightly by giving them two territories in the demon world.

One was a huge territory comparable to Agares in the East, which Petrania originally owned, and although Lilin has never had a large territory in the past, her power is comparable to that of the great demons, so she possesses a reasonable amount of territory. Received territory.

…It was Gamagin’s territory, which is now gone.

“Saint, it’s been a while since you too. Are you still doing well, Evil God?”

“Hehe, my father is always doing well. He is a person who is always grateful to us for sharing our faith.”

“Then, first of all, I have given you a territory that symbolizes your authority as a devil, but since you are also devils belonging to the Evil God Cult, you are free to roam around freely. You are not devils who do not know honor enough to dare to attack the territory of the great devil. “Devils cannot resist the Great Devils.”

Hell, demon world. It is called by many names, but in the end, it is also a place where living things live.

There were places full of life and places negative, but walking around here was an opportunity to see quite a few things.

So, three months in the demon world. Meanwhile, Descartes also enjoyed to his heart’s content the things that could be enjoyed in the demon world.

“Orphes, let’s go, to the orphanage.”

“That’s good too.”

“…My father said that he gave Orpheth the right to run an academy that the people could use. Let’s go there.”

The so-called Commoners Academy.

A special organization created to select qualified people among them and bring them to the evil religion.

It was sponsored by the Evil God Church and also received support from empires, and was run by Orphus. It was also a safer place than anywhere else in the world because it had a nihilistic tower floating in the sky.

“How did you come all the way here without saying anything?”

“Hmm, it’s been a long time. Orpheth. I was wandering the world reliving old memories, and I ended up coming to where you are.”

“There are times when you leave his side. I will live to see it for a long time. Anyway, follow me, I can guide you around this place even with my old body.”

Even though Orpheth lost his power, he did not lose the experience he had accumulated from the distant past.

Although he lost his powers, he was still a skilled hunter, and at the same time, the enormous amount of knowledge he had accumulated as a sage was not something to be ignored.

“Anyway, I really didn’t expect you to come this far. Since you’ve already come this far, how about teaching the children as a special instructor today?”

“It looks like you have become the academy’s dean through and through. I never thought you would ask for such a request first.”

“It is our job to pass on knowledge to children and love them.”

Descartes regarded his request as a better opportunity, so he happily passed on his knowledge to the children.

Dressed neatly in priestly attire, he stood in front of the children and taught them a theology called Evil God Religion.

For him, who had been with the history of the evil religion and as the name of a saint, just telling the natural history had astronomical value.

The students treasured every word of Descartes, a special lecturer and saint of all time, and those who got the opportunity worked harder to obtain scholarships.

Just as Damian had thought and wanted, it was coming true.

“So, I would like to ask you one thing. What is faith and what kind of faith is it to you? And if you can constantly pursue it, then you will finally believe in God.”

And when Descartes’ lecture was over, Petrania was next.

If Descartes taught us theology and history, Petrania taught us speech, and Lilin taught us magic.

Petrania taught us how to gain favor and guide others in the direction we want.

Lilin is a wizard who has been using magic since ancient times, and although her speaking style was difficult for others to understand, she taught in a unique and unique way that they could easily understand.

That was the end of my role as a special instructor for the day.

“Hmm… If you haven’t decided on your next destination, what about the spirit world? Lilin, you weren’t close to the previous spirit kings.”

“…departed, gladly, kings.”

“So, how about their children meet the spirit kings of the time?”

“…Next time, when I have time.”

Lilin looked like she didn’t really want to go to the spirit world, and Petrania just remained silent about this.

This was because he knew exactly how Lilin no longer went to the spirit world.

“Let’s visit next time when things get a little better.”

Petrania whispered to Lilin, who was just lowering her head.

Time was in abundance after going on a trip, so if Lilin can later clear away the bad things that happened in the past and overcome them firmly.

It’s not too late to come back then.

“Okay, let’s do it.”

After leaving the academy, I looked around the buildings built in later times.

As part of my travels, I went to many resorts and tried many things that people created to enjoy comfortably.

And soon, after visiting all the places worth visiting.

“…Lilin, are you really okay? I also don’t know what you went through in the spirit world…”

What is the relationship between demons and spirits?

Terrible relationship.

A relationship that cannot lead to anything else.

Beyond the wall, the king and the devil became friends. And the gaze wasn’t that good.

In the end, the relationship left only a negative impact on each other.

“So, if it gets a little better…”

“I told you, evil spirit, go ahead.”

Lilin used her power while saying that.

Her magic was simple enough to transport her to another dimension with thin walls.

Lilin said as she tore through space and opened a portal leading to the spirit world.

“Also, with three people, there’s nothing to be afraid of.”

“…I’m so thankful for this, I don’t know what to say.”

Descartes wore a priest’s uniform to meet expectations, even though it made a rattling sound.

Two demons and one undead.

It was a combination that was enough to drive the spirits mad with hatred, but the three laughed and crossed the torn space to head to the spirit world.

There were still a lot of places left to travel to.
