Without much hesitation, before the three of them could make a move, Rimuru took off and made her escape.

His relentless speed demonstrated his lack of desire to continue fighting.

If you can't beat them, you have to run!

There's no reason for him to fight these two groups of heroes to the death here.

"They ran away cleanly and efficiently."

Frillie watched the departing figure disappear into the distance and said calmly.

"Isn't it a problem if they don't run?"

"After all, the heroes here..."

"It's not just us."

Upon hearing this, Simmel smiled slightly, then looked at Seiya in front of her.

"The Sword Hero?"

"What a rare meeting."

She could also sense the other person's class, but instead, she saw a speechless expression on Frillie's face.

"Isn't this disguise a bit too much?"

Saber's control panel.

That's a really "extreme" way of hiding it.

"Isn't this the same as you?"

Simmel was not surprised by this; on the contrary, she agreed with it.

To be honest, Frilian's act of hiding her magic is no different from Saber's.

“Those weirdos really know how to gossip.”

"Strange and unusual?"

"Haha, it's been a long time since someone said that to me."

Upon hearing Seiya's response, Simmel suddenly felt a sense of nostalgia.

Back when I was still an "unknown nobody," that's what I was often told.

I never expected to hear that word at this age.

"He's still wary of us."

"That's true"

Frillie observed Seiya's unapproachable demeanor and then spoke with Simmel.

Could this hostility stem from the perspective of a follower?

If that's the case, then it's not entirely incomprehensible.

"Reintroduce yourself."

“She is Caster Frilian, and I am Simmel, her familiar.”

We have no intention of being your enemy.

Although it wasn't explicitly stated, their identities as "heroes" were quite obvious to each other.

Simmel believed that a misunderstanding could be avoided if there was proper communication.

"Hmm, who knows."

"Perhaps you are the Demon King's subordinates."

It was indeed possible to see the two people's stats, but even so, Seiya would not easily believe it.

"What a suspicious guy."

Tilting her head, Frillie had never seen such an "unreasonable" hero before.

"If they weren't enemies, would you have let that demon king escape so easily?"

Seiya pointed his sword in the direction Rimuru had left and said directly.

"We're just locked up."

"Didn't you also not stop him? Don't we all know very well what kind of demon king he is?"

Frillie was about to say something, but was interrupted by Simmel.

"."

There was no response; Seiya simply and silently sheathed his sword.

After a long silence, Simmel finally spoke.

"Although I don't want to admit it, he did not do anything harmful."

"This surprised me as well. There are still such demons in the world."

"I guess I've broadened my horizons."

This was equally shocking for both Frilian and Simmel.

Why did he and she know?

That's because they were in an infinite prison, and for some reason they could see the outside world.

Perhaps it was the Demon King's doing, but even if it was a "pretend" to be his true nature for Frilian and Simmel to see, in reality, he was not as wicked as they imagined.

When faced with Rider attacks, they will also actively protect the residents.

Treat CC and the Masters of Assassin and Archer kindly.

That's not something a demon would do.

Even if you're always pretending to be a good person, there should be a limit.

Rather than saying that guy, as a demon, is actually more like a "human".

"A demon king is a demon king."

"That will not change."

"Ah, you're right."

Upon hearing Seiya's words, Simmel paused for a moment before smiling wryly.

Is it possible for a "good" member to exist among the demon race?

That possibility might exist in other worlds, but they can't gamble on it.

Because even the slightest mistake can cause irreparable damage.

Having both been deeply affected by the "demon," they knew very well what the consequences of that misjudgment would be.

At best, it could lead to the extinction of humanity; at worst, it could result in the destruction of the world.

Therefore, they must never blindly trust the demons.

"Hmph, I thought you would still stubbornly say nice things, but it seems you are not as stupid as I thought."

With his arms crossed, Seiya looked at the two of them and spoke in a very impolite and uncompromising manner.

"Do you want us to say that?"

Although still young, the elderly Simmel could easily understand what the harsh words of the brave warrior were implying.

"Let me make this clear first, I don't trust you."

"Haha. That's alright, you can't possibly ambush us from behind, can you?"

"Well"

Squinting and watching the complicated conversation between the two with a helpless expression, Frillie felt like she was watching a sulking child.

The hero is truly unique.

Thinking that, the three of them seemed to sense something and turned their heads to look in the direction Rimuru had left.

"That aura is..."

"Rider, please."

Having had close contact with the source of the violent magic through a "prison" experience, Frilian and Simmel immediately identified who was at the source of the power.

"It seems they're more restless than I expected."

"Can't wait any longer?"

Seiya frowned and looked in that direction, then murmured to himself.

There's only one reason why Rider would appear now.

That was an attempt to intercept and kill the fleeing Berserker.
