The Last Incarnation Of The Land Of Arden
CAN YOU KILL YOUR CLOSE FRIEND?

"of course. Our taste of hard work will feel better when compared to the results of asking others. When that happens, you'll really learn how to appreciate one precious piece of silver" Nao said, smiling at Arthur and pinning back his blindfolded bangs.

Arthur is motivated by Nao's words.

He realized something, Just for the sake of a silver coin, a lot of people fell down in completing their work. All of this, for their survival.

"Did Brother Ram also experience the same thing as me? I hope Brother Ram is still alive. I want to meet him"

Nao wrote down the food that he and Arthur wanted to order later, giving it to the food waiter.

...****************...

"Hey Arthur, what do you think I am?"

Nao asked while giving meat to Arthur's food.

"You mean?"

Arthur returned the meat to Nao's meal.

"Eat, I'd rather have eggs than meat" Nao gave Arthur the chicken.

"Thank you"

"I meant my question, do you think I could be your friend?" Obviously Nao asked while eating the fried rice he ordered.

"of course. I'm not picky on friends. I'm very happy to have friends besides my brother's friends"

Nao gave Arthur the meat again.

"really? Even if it's a killer, are you still going to be friends with him?"

Arthur put his spoon next to his cloth-floated plate.

"Are you a murderer?" Arthur widened his eyes as he asked Nao that.

"Of course not. This me, good boy. How could I be a murderer" Nao said.

"Haha. I believe you anyway"

Arthur laughed a little and went back to eating.

"Yes, I'll keep that trust. Then you think, who's our enemy?" Nao smiled as he glanced at Arthur who was eating.

"Enemies? It depends on how we judge. I don't think the Devil Nation is so bad when everything is like Archie. After all, in this world, there are no bad people. All are good people"

Arthur ate his food back.

"Huh? The Devil is the worst nation. Don't equate Them with Me" said Archie.

"And, sometimes without us even realizing our enemy could actually be, our closest person" Arthur replied as he nodded.

"HEMFF.... If one day you think of me as an enemy. Are you gonna kill me?"

Nao asked as he devoured his food.

Arthur stopped eating.

"Nao, is your question really a reality?"

Arthur suspects Nao because of Nao's question that asked him the same thing since then.

Arthur wants to know the truth.

"It's just a parable. We are friends. Are you willing to kill your friend if you find out that your close friend is an enemy?" Obviously Nao without seeing Arthur and cool eating.

It's something that can't be thought of with common sense.

Killing a close friend is like killing your own family.

"I can't kill him. It's hard to be happy to have been passed together. It's the same as today. When I find out right now that you're my enemy. I'll let you out of my sight as long as you never show up in front of me again" replied Arthur.

"That's a stupid thought. It could have been 'I' here was the one who was very threatening to this Negri. Are you gonna do the same?"

"I'll make you repent" Arthur clasped his hands in front of Nao and closed his eyes.

"SSTOOL.... FRUAHAHA! You're so funny Arthur. I like that answer. But, not everyone will repent because not necessarily your enemy is doing what he thinks is wrong" Nao rubbed his watery eyes.

Arthur opened his eyes and said "Can judge others. Not himself"

Sometimes, there is a man who looks like a thug he helps a child who fell and cried.

The audience judged him unilaterally and covered his ears over the man's explanation.

Why are they like that?

'THEY' attach more importance to appearance and evidence that is not necessarily true than the explanation of the Man.

...******************...

"So, how was your first mission?"

Arthur returns to Headquarters after picking up Tsuha after training with Marsyal.

Nel or currently could be called Arnold welcoming them with a very open heart.

If He's a Devil, why do his eyes stay black and different from Archie's red eyes when he swaps places with Arthur?

"He added a magical beast to this Headquarters. May Captain Nel not mind" said Tsuha who was overpowered by the three Wolves of magic.

The magic wolf saw each other when it heard that Arthur added another magical beast.

Their tails wagged while sniffing Tsuha.

"Magic animal?" Razel asked who suddenly appeared after coming home from guiding the other Joint Team.

"Yes, he's a cat. I asked for Kepten's permission. I also promised to feed him with my stash money" Arthur pointed his little finger at Razel and Arnold.

Arnold and Razel looked at each other.

"How's it?" Ask them both together.

"Eh! Whatever Captain. All those in the area of the Demon Eradication Headquarters must get permission from the Captain" Razel said.

"You're the deputy. I leave it to you. Your permission is the same as mine" Arnold replied as he pulled the hood of Tsuha's robe out of the three magic wolves.

"Thank you Captain" Tsuha said.

"Well, if I were, I would of course allow it. As for the magical beast, it doesn't harm you" Razel replied.

Arthur's eyes immediately sparkled and his heart was thrilled to be able to get that permission from Razel.

"Thank you, Vice Razel!" Firm Arthur.

"Then, where's the magic animal?" Arnold hasn't seen a magic animal since Arthur's arrival.

"The magic cat is being examined by Captain Marsyal" replied Tsuha.

"Yes, Captain Marsyal will check it out in a few days. I can't wait for him" Arthur smiled broadly at Arnold.

...****************...

The night wind in the middle of the magic forest swept out the fine hair of an Elf kneeling before another Elf wearing a black veil on his face.

The emerald green eyes lit up at night.

"So, what are you planning?"

A green Elf with bound hair lowered his gaze as the Emerald-green-eyed figure asked.

"I.... Not planning anything. Sa.ya.ya just want to go back to my Master"

The green Elf's voice trembled as it answered him.

"Master? Are you a slave? And, just giving your whole soul to me isn't enough?"

The Elf's eyes were trembling.

"I'm begging you for forgiveness. The Master I mentioned is a helper in My Life. I did not give up my whole soul to him. Only to you, I give up all of My Body. My duty to My Master is to guard only his Body. He's a Spell just like you"

The elf prostrated before him.

"Dribbles? What's Name?"

"ALFARELLZA AMBAREESH"
