Fighting you is like being in jail.

Philon was tougher than ever, even angry, staring intently at Frilian and refusing to leave.

Her puffed-up face was even rounder than before.

Seeing this, Leng Chang couldn't help but agree, "No wonder it's called the Big Mushroom."

Meanwhile, Shutark, standing to the side, was just as resolute as Philon, showing no fear whatsoever, his eyes gleaming with determination.

Seeing this, Leng Changshang smiled and said:

"Since you're so determined, let's all come together. More people means more things will be easier, and most of the logistics will need help."

"Thank you!"

"Great!"

Philon and Shutark immediately spoke seriously, but Frilian carried a sense of worry.

So Leng Chang led the three of them toward the nearest city.

On the way, Frilian asked:

How is your partner?

Leng Chang paused upon hearing this, and said seriously, "I was injured to some extent, thanks to Celia... Sigh, I'm sorry, I didn't protect her well."

"Maybe... she thinks it's worth it." Frillian sighed, her feelings complicated.

In the chat group

Leng Chang: You bunch of guys! You made me do such a miserable thing! Do you know how uneasy I felt when I saw Frilian looking so sad in front of me?

Homura Akemi: Huh? You've had a change of heart? That's rare.

Celia: How is it? Did that brat cry?

Cold and frequent: like crying.

Celia: ?

Kazuma Sato: What's next?

Madoka Kaname: Resurrect Simmel!

Kitahara Iori: Speaking of which...should we arrange for some people to leave?

Goto Ichiri: Is that alright?! I, I, I'll be the first to leave! Remember to go live afterwards.

Shizuka Heike: Pochi, don't you want to have an adventure?

Goto Ichiri: I have to go to school tomorrow.

Shizuka Hirae: Holy crap! I almost forgot I had to go to work! I'm second!

Kazuma Sato: The hero who was supposed to defeat the Demon King has to leave early because he has to go to work and school tomorrow... This just doesn't feel right!

Leng Chang: Studies come first! Work comes first! Saving the world doesn't include food and lodging; you must take care of yourself and allocate your time wisely.

Madoka Kaname: Luckily I graduated early, hehe!

Kazuma Sato: So what if you're a top student!

Kitahara Iori: Hehehe! A top student is amazing! I'm taking a leave of absence! (Funny.JPG)

Homura Akemi: Napochi, how do you want to exit?

Goto Ichiri: Huh? I don't know... I hadn't thought about it.

Leng Chang: How about a thrilling assassination, where we discover there's a traitor in the team, and that traitor is Xiao Jingjing, who will be the second to leave the scene?

Shizuka Hiraie: You bastard... (clenching fist)

Celia: How terrifying. But it's also possible to involve my death later, which would be perfectly reasonable.

Kazuma Sato: What happens next? Who will back down? We can't all be going to gang up on everyone at the last minute, can we? Aren't we leaving some room for maneuver?

Madoka Kaname: Let's wait until we revive Simmel and then die on the way.

Homura Akemi: Madoka, you've gone astray. I'm going to die with Madoka!

Madoka Kaname: Eh! This is really difficult!

Leng Chang: Shall we die together? Let me think... then let's have the resurrected mentor! Celie will assassinate them all the way.

Celia: How about adding a twist?

Leng Chang: How so?

Celia: I didn't die. Instead, I sensed a traitor within the team and began assassinating them one by one. This way, we could quickly reduce their numbers.

Leng Chang: How about we play Werewolf?

Ichiri Goto: Um... how am I supposed to die? I can't really die, can I?

Leng Chang: How could I really die? Death isn't something to joke about. Shall I get you a body double? You can leave after dinner?

Goto Ichiri: Yeah, I'll go back after dinner. Remember to start the live stream. I'm really looking forward to what happens next. I can watch the class too.

Hiratsuka Shizuka: Give me a substitute doll.

Madoka Kaname: I'll get everyone ready with Soul Gems, so that even if we're torn to pieces, we won't die.

Leng Chang: Xiao Yuan! My Superman! I've been holding back because I knew it would hurt everyone, but now I don't need to hold back anymore! Hehehe.JPG

Deer eye round fragrance:

Kitahara Iori: Oh no!

Kazuma Sato: I have a bad feeling!

Black and White Hill: Now we need a hidden villain! B·W·Q, the Demon King's number one loyal dog, makes his appearance! Hehehehe!

Leng Chang: Sure!

When Frilian and her two companions arrived at the city inn, they also met Madoka Kaname and the others.

For the sake of realism, apart from Goto Ichiri and Hirae Shizuka who were in the logistics and did not participate in the battle, the rest of them all had bandages on them to varying degrees, and they looked like they were breathing more than they were breathing out.

Upon witnessing such a tragic scene, Philon and Shutark joined Goto Ichiri and Hiratsuka Shizuka in their logistical support work.

"how is the situation?"

Frilian walked over and sat down next to Leng Chang with concern, looking at him sitting in the wooden chair with his legs straight and unable to bend.

"Thirty fractures throughout the body, ruptured internal organs and bleeding, everyone's in about the same boat... Thank goodness Celia covered the retreat. I'm sorry."

 …”

Leng Chang leaned back in her chair, full of guilt, and said that such a situation could easily lead to the thought that it was she who had to cover the rear, and even Frilian might have had that thought.

Upon hearing this, Frillie clenched her fingers, gripped her clothes, and her eyes flashed with resentment.

Finally, she sighed and loosened her clenched fingers.

"There is nothing we can do about this..."

"What are you planning to do next?" she asked again.

"We must resurrect Simmel."

"what?!"

Frillie's pupils suddenly contracted, and she turned to look at Leng Chang. The quick turn of her head caused her long white hair to flutter in an arc beside her face.

Surprise, disbelief, and shock flashed across her face.

"Resurrected!?" she asked incredulously.

“That’s right…resurrection.” Leng Chang lowered his head, his voice extremely heavy, the shadow of his bangs obscuring his eyes. “I’m sorry, we had no choice. One of the necessary conditions for killing the Demon King is that he is already dead…only in this way can the Demon King be killed.”

"Really……"

"It's true, and it's not just resurrection, it also has great power, otherwise ordinary people wouldn't be able to defeat the Demon King."

Leng Chang was filled with guilt, his head bowed in self-reproach, trying not to let Frilian see his expression.

Frillie felt her heart tighten, then start pounding wildly, clutching her chest in disbelief and excitement.

Simmel...will we ever meet again?

Chapter 104 A roar! Wow! Ya! Po-chi!

For a moment, Frillie, who was sitting on the wooden chair next to Leng Chang, was stunned by the news. She stared wide-eyed in disbelief, looking at Leng Chang with excitement, disbelief, fear, and unease.

"Is this... really okay?" she asked heavily, as if she had just thought of something.

I have a feeling that something is wrong with this, but I can't quite put my finger on it.

Leng Chang knew how she felt, and sighed helplessly. A glimmer of understanding flashed in his left eye, the only one that wasn't tied up.

“Frilian, I know this is wrong. We shouldn’t blaspheme souls, but in order to defeat the Demon King… we have no other choice. So, I’m sorry.”

"No... I just don't know if this is the right thing to do. If it were Simmel... perhaps she would choose to continue dying after it's all over... I don't know..."

Frillie took a deep breath, a sense of fear washing over her. Fear and dread flickered in her blue eyes; she was afraid of another separation.

This time she was even more afraid than before. In hindsight, she had come to understand a lot, but she just didn't dare to face it.

Leng Chang remained silent, realizing that he couldn't say anything at this moment.

But it doesn't matter!

Where Frilian couldn't see, Leng Chang's eyes flashed with a sharp light, and he forced a smile, suppressing the upward curve of his lips.

Can't laugh!

We mustn't let Frilian find out anything; we have to hold back!

Don't worry, Frillie.

This time, Simmel dares not die on her own... This is a shocking conspiracy prepared for you!

In the afternoon, at the hotel.

Goto Ichiri prepared a lot of things for everyone lying in bed, and by the time it was over, she was exhausted.

The main problem is that if I'm not tired, my true colors will be revealed, so I've done a lot of things.

After finishing everything, she sat down to rest in the next room. Philon and Shutark also sat down to rest beside her; they too had been busy with many things.

"Thank you for your help." Goto Ichiri said shyly to Philon and Shutark, with a somewhat stiff smile on her face.

"It's nothing, I'm just glad I could help."

Philon looked at Goto Ichiri seriously and said.

"That's great... Um, I really envy your abilities in combat." Goto Ichiri sat in a chair, holding a water glass in his hand, and gave a somewhat unfocused, self-deprecating smile.

Felen, who was sitting to the side, looked puzzled. "Pochi, was there no fight?"

“Yeah, I can’t fight. I’m practically useless in almost every battle… I’ve always been doing logistics, so I’m so envious of you guys who can fight, ahahaha…” Goto Ichiri awkwardly scratched his cheek, filled with guilt for feeling out of place.

"Logistics is also part of the battle!" Philon clenched his fingers tightly and said to Goto Ichiri with force and certainty.

“Yes, without logistics… the battle would be terrifying.” Shutark nodded in agreement.

However, Goto Ichiri still felt guilty, "Even so... that feeling of having no choice but to fight..."

“Pochi, believe in your abilities! You are an indispensable part of everyone. Just like Lady Frilian, who is always a worry, she might not even be able to feed herself if no one takes care of her.” Philen gave her absolute affirmation.

"Um....."

Goto Ichiri nodded, then smiled knowingly.

She then chatted with Philon for a long time, and even took out her guitar and played it in the room.

The guitar music amazed Philon and Shutark; it was music they had never heard before. They clapped with stars in their eyes, filled with excitement.

"That sounds wonderful!" Philon clapped his hands excitedly.

"Hahaha... No, no..." Goto Ichiri scratched his head sheepishly, looking embarrassed.

"I've never heard such beautiful music before!" Hugh Tarek shouted excitedly.

"Hehehehe... That's so exaggerated..." Goto Ichiri felt a little lightheaded for a moment, hugging his guitar with a silly grin.

At dinner time, Philon and Goto Ichiri sat together eating, even chatting and laughing.
