The southern part of Fin Island welcomed two ‘travelers’ who came from afar across the border.
Standing in the central square of Odense, they paused and looked at a building with a rich historical atmosphere.
"...That's where it is?"
"That's it."
A seemingly endless conversation echoed between the two.
"Saint" Sylvia.
"Quasi-Demon" Orelus.
It had been dozens of days since they set off from Milan, and they finally approached the location of the 'target'.
The reason why I use "finally" is because the journey that originally took less than half a month was suddenly extended by two or three times by a troublesome and good person.
"Yeah, it's a little later than scheduled, but I think 'she' won't mind."
The gloomy young man with a calm face shrugged and smiled softly.
In fact, it can't be said that it was a 'pre-arrangement'. If you think about it, he and 'that person' just left a verbal agreement.
But this is not a problem. As long as they are not far apart, whether he wants to find the other party or the other party wants to find him, it is not difficult to spend some time.
because--
"You still have the nerve to say it?"
The questioning voice broke the young man's smile that was trying to ease the embarrassment.
Sylvia said she couldn't accept Orrels's "open-mindedness" and tall woman wearing a maid uniform.
She stared at the back of the "quasi-demon" with great vigor, and it could be said that her face was full of 'opinions'.
"From taking care of the lost children back home to settling the refugees who were persecuted by the Nordic Magic Association, I won't comment on the starting point. Do you, a poor and declining nobleman, really have no intention of introspecting?"
Sylvia's words were like needles, constantly 'piercing' Orrels' body.
The blond young man's smile suddenly turned painful.
He knew what his partner was upset about.
"You have been like this since the beginning. You have always been involved in troubles that are inappropriate for your status. In the end, you even lost the chance to become a "Demon God". Have you never regretted your actions?"
This big idiot.
Sylvia made this mouth shape in her mind.
She felt worthless for Orrels.
Once upon a time, this man could become a "devil".
It is obviously a rare opportunity that only comes once in ten thousand years, and he obviously has the strength to reach the top, but he will miss it just to save a kitten.
Although he has asked about these things before, has he really not regretted it?
The maid saint sighed.
"Sylvia."
At this moment, a straightforward answer came without hesitation.
"Of course I will regret it."
Orrels said seriously.
After all, it is an opportunity to become a "Devil", and no magician will give up this temptation.
"But regret doesn't mean I think it was wrong."
"Even if I had the chance to do it again, I think I would still make the same choice."
He reiterated with a smile.
The magician named 'Orelles' is such a person.
Really...
A hopeless guy.
Sylvia smiled bitterly and tilted her head, and reconfirmed her opinion from the bottom of her heart.
"Okay, I already understand that the person I serve is a fool who is more like a saint than me, so stop wasting time here."
Waving her hand, the maid urged her master.
If their target leaves again, she doesn't want to run around aimlessly.
"Take me to meet you."
Sylvia raised her eyebrows and said with a look of disbelief.
"That genius who you can identify as 'the same'."

**********
In Denmark, Odense is a famous fairy tale town.
Basically, you can find any type of fairy tale book here.
The place where Zella is now is the largest central library in Odense.
In order to increase efficiency, she rarely used the 'dispersal of idlers', and now she was the only one left in the entire library.
The books that violated the law of gravity were scattered in the air, slowly floating next to the girl sitting in the center.
Of course, she couldn't just read fairy tale books after putting such a lot of effort into doing it.
If there are people here who are familiar with fairy tales, they will find that there is almost a special existence appearing in these books.
——"Fairy".
Although it is a very common image in the story, this word with a unique meaning in the field of magic is the ‘trump card’ that Zera has prepared for the future.
Although she was not sure whether she would meet the 'owner of that thing' in the end, it was always good to be prepared.
After all, this place is only one step away from her goal.
Just open a book with "Fairy" written on it, and the "Star Book" next to Zella will turn the page and extract the "information" she needs.
In the past, the name of a technique vaguely remained in her memory.
More than a year ago, she met the person who developed this technique again during an accidental outing.
The technique is called "Fairy Transformation", and its developer is named Orelus.
It's a pity that Zella was busy with other things at the time, and in the end, they only briefly exchanged their theories and ideas.
But that's it. It is no exaggeration to say that I have benefited a lot.
Putting the coffee in her hand on the tray, Zella's eyes wandered around.
She remembered that they also met in the library.
Because the impression was so long ago, Zeira didn't even recognize who the young man in front of him was at that time, and only thought that he was a hidden strong man in this world.
It wasn't until he reported his home that the memory buried there was awakened.
And Orelus is worthy of being qualified to aspire to be the "Demon God". Many of his theories have given Zeira a deeper understanding of the system of this world.
On the contrary, Zella's magical insights from another world also shocked Orrels at her genius and knowledge. However, the girl who was focused on absorbing new knowledge at the time did not notice it.
In this way, although the two of them knew each other, it did not prevent them from discussing their respective propositions about 'magic'.
This is the sympathy between two 'people' who are about to reach the end of the same road.
But there is only one point where the two have considerable differences of opinion.
It was the spell that created a point of intersection between them, "Fairy Transformation".
For Zella, the word "goblin" has a special meaning.
For Orrels, the "goblin" is also regarded by him as the key to reversing his tragic fate.
Therefore, the two people, who were at loggerheads in this area and neither of them had completely completed their "fairy transformation", made a promise to "I must prove it to you next time."
Whose "fairy transformation" is correct? They believe they will be able to find the answer when they meet again.
That's why Zella is waiting here.
She believed Orrels had accepted her 'invitation'.
Because Orelus is a "quasi-demon".
And if Zela’s strength has to be measured by the rank in this world, it can also be called——
