"So the wireless communication device is kept as a secret among you?" (Melinda)

Grandmother sighed….

"Oh you fool! Do you know how serious chaos your choice has caused?" (Melinda)

Grandmother scolded me without mercy.

"Let that be a lesson to you. Remember the consequences of lacking contact and losing calmness!" (Melinda)

"OK! OK!" (s.h.i.+n)

Although we managed to subjugate the devils, we were not praised due to our mistakes.

However, grandma was right.

Faced the emergency, we panicked immediately, so we made a false judgement and took the wrong action. That was why we failed. In addition, it could be said that the situation had become strange since the devils" sudden appearance.

At that time, maybe encircling the street was wiser.

If I met Alice and others and came back through the "Gate", which could shorten the time, maybe the devils couldn"t have escaped.

We had a lot to reflect on.

"Melinda, enough already. These kids are only fifteen or sixteen years old, so failure is unavoidable." (Merlin)

With grandfather"s help, grandmother stopping talking.

"However,  what Melinda has said is right. Be sure not to neglect contact and reports in the future." (Merlin)

"Yes…" (s.h.i.+n)

"Failure is the mother of success. As of now, you"ve been developing too smoothly. Luckily, your release of devils caused no casualties. Let it be your lesson and learn from it." (Merlin)

"Yes!" (s.h.i.+n)

I had been reminded of "report, contact and communication" many times in a previous incarnation…

However, after transmigrating to this world, people around me had helped me make reports and contact, so I neglected them completely.

No matter how powerful the magic would be, it would make no sense if we failed to use "report, contact and communication" flexibly.

The incident taught me an important lesson.

"All clear? Is that the end?" (Melinda)

"It"s not over, right? What"s going on, Brother August?" (s.h.i.+n)

Faced grandma"s question, I couldn"t help but looked at August.

"In this way, we"ve killed the devils trying to attack us, though we can"t eliminate all the devils." (August)

"That is to say, there are remaining devils elsewhere?" (Melinda)

"Yes. Schtrom, the culprit of turning those men into devils, is alive." (August)

"So this is not the end?" (Melinda)

"How to say…" (August)

"Is there any inside information?" (Melinda)

August told grandpa and grandma what we had heard from devils on the street.

"Schtrom only wants to destroy the Kingdom? Will he stop after this?" (Melinda)

"Devils really said so." (August)

"I see." (Melinda)

Grandfather and grandmother seemed to be thinking about something.

What the h.e.l.l was going on? Had they gather up the threads?

"Does Schtrom hate the empire?" (Merlin)

"I don"t know. But now that he wants to destroy the empire, he must hate it." (Melinda)

"Um…" (Merlin)

Grandmother pondered with her arms crossed and eyebrows frowned.

Then she started to explain her answer.

"Maybe the reason why he hates the empire so much has something to do with his devilization." (Melinda)

"Devilization?" (s.h.i.+n)

"Yes. Although I"m not sure till now, if the cause for Schtrom"s devilization is the same as what I think, the presumption will be true." (Melinda)

Grandmother looked at us while speaking.

"The requirement for devilization is not only let the normal magic rampage, but also the magic being infused with strong hatred." (Melinda)

Grandmother made a presumption about the devilization.

"I see. Schtrom only turned the ordinary people in the empire into devils because the so-called ordinary people were the ones being abused the hardest and having strong resentment against the empire." (s.h.i.+n)

It was the reason why the number of devils increased every time they attacked the city streets.

The ordinary people were squeezed, so they hate n.o.bles and the empire.

Schtrom took advantage of this to increase his partners.

"However, if it was the strong hatred that turned Schtrom into a devil at first, now that he has reached his goal, what else does he want to do?" (August)

"Nothing else?" (s.h.i.+n)

"Maybe you are right." (August)

So Schtrom didn"t show up.

However, as underdogs, the ordinary people gained the overwhelming strength, so they grew ambitions.

It seemed that we understood the reason why the rebellion broke out in devils a little.

We gradually understood the riot.

"Therefore, as long as we try to avoid provoking Schtrom when we act, will everything be ok?" (August)

"I wish we can go that smoothly." (Melinda)

Facing August who was full of expectations, grandmother answered with a worried look, because their enemies were devils.

After turning into a devil, a person"s values would change dramatically, which was why grandmother looked worried.

However, it was unnecessary to provoke the devils that hadn"t showed aggression till now.

It was unnecessary to put everybody at risk.

"Put aside Schtrom"s affair. We can temporarily declare to the World Alliance that all devils were subjugated." (August)

"Let"s go back to Earls.h.i.+de first." (Melinda)

"See you later." (Merlin)

While talking, grandfather opened the Gate.

I asked my grandmother about one thing I cared about.

"Grandma, how on earth did you notice the aspect about devilization? Do you know something new about the devil that you once confronted?" (s.h.i.+n)

Hearing my question, grandfather and grandmother showed a grim expression immediately.

"s.h.i.+n." (Merlin)

"What? Grandpa?" (s.h.i.+n)

"We"ll talk about it later." (Merlin)

Giving me that answer, grandfather and grandmother walked into the Gate.

Their reaction showed that they must know something.

However, maybe they had gloom over the past thing.

If not, they shouldn"t have showed that expression.

Although they said that it would be discussed later, maybe it was a question that should not be asked.

"s.h.i.+n." (Sicily)

"Oh?" (s.h.i.+n)

I asked abruptly though they were my grandparents. While I was thinking of that, Sicily talked to me.

"It doesn"t matter. Your grandparents won"t say something that they don"t want to say, so what you have heard is something they can say." (Sicily)

"Really?" (s.h.i.+n)

"That"s right." (Sicily)

It was true.

Grandfather told me that he would tell me about it later. There shouldn"t be a problem.

"Sicily, thank you." (s.h.i.+n)

"You"re welcome." (Sicily)

I felt gloomy because I was scolded and did something rashly, but I was cheered up by her words.

"OK! Let"s move out to join the World Alliance and report the victory to them!" (s.h.i.+n)

We opened the Gate to the street where devils gathered.

Melinda, who returned to the capital from the plain, expressed the idea that she hadn"t said though she wanted to talk about in a voice that only Merlin could hear.

"If people lose interest in everything…" (Melinda)

Melinda imagined the future that she never wanted to see.

"I hope I guess wrong." (Melinda)

Looking at Melinda, Merlin showed a complicated expression.

When we arrived at the street, we didn"t see the World Alliance.

Maybe they had started marching towards the capital.

In order to catch up with them, we flew in the direction to the capital by using the floating magic.

We caught up with them soon. However, what we saw was the Earls.h.i.+de army and the World Alliance jointly subjugating devils.

"How could this happen?" (s.h.i.+n)

"Oh! s.h.i.+n!" (Sieg)

The scene of they subjugating devils made me confused. While I was wondering, Sieg greeted me in the Earls.h.i.+de army.

I landed and walked to Sieg.

"How are the devils?" (s.h.i.+n)
