The villainous young master just wants to live a Buddhist-like life.

　……

　Professor Sylph remained cautious, intently examining whether the seal on the "Orb of Truth" was perfect.

　The "Bloodborne Sword Saint" took a breath, a gentle smile appearing on her face, before her entire body disintegrated, transforming into starlight of magical power.

　"Wind Spirit King Sylph" reached out and caught the falling "Holy Sword Curse".

　Professor Jones stood atop the flying dragon, his mechanical arm's five fingers flexing and extending, as if he hadn't had enough.

　Professor Lily flipped herself onto the belly of "Dorombaluto" and forced it to lie down as it flew this way.

　The Blue-Eyed White Dragon flew to the foot of Lord Montilfali, giving the exhausted lord a place to rest.

　Inside the pumpkin carriage, Victor Gold asked anxiously, "Was the seal successful?"

　Ophelia looked at the "Blood Source Sword Saint" who had returned to the magic card and said thoughtfully, "It should be a success."

　She had never seen the Demon King sealed away, but she could sense that the aura she loathed had completely disappeared.

　Professor Mitia only opened her eyes at this moment, carefully put away the "Great Prophecy" and said, "There's no 'what if'."

　That means it's absolutely correct!

　With the astrologer's confirmation, everyone in the carriage breathed a sigh of relief.

　Don't be fooled by the fact that this war has gone very smoothly so far.

　But the entire battle was like dancing on a tightrope, extremely dangerous.

　Apart from Professor Lily and the maids, almost everyone else has given it their all.

　While the Demon King's strength was expected, the power of his demon subordinates was unexpected.

　If those demons hadn't lacked the awakening to die for the Demon King, the difficulty of this war would have increased by at least two stars.

　Moreover, without the dedicated efforts of Professor Mydia, Ophelia, and Aurora, they would have lost everything the moment the Demon King locked onto the carriage.

　It can only be said that if any link in this war had gone wrong, it would not have been possible to achieve such a perfect result.

　Fortunately, we can finally enjoy the fruits of victory!

　Dak picked up a cup of tea, intending to toast Aurora, but noticed that Aurora's expression was not pleasant.

　He suddenly focused his mind and instantly put the tea into his mouth.

　This time, none of the people from the academy suffered any losses, but the losses to the City of Freedom were immeasurable.

　Moreover, there are still quite a few insects lurking in the Free City today, and it is far from time for them to celebrate.

　He pursed his lips, then placed the rim of the teacup to his lips and sipped the water slowly, deep in thought.

　Completely unaware, Aurora's face beside her had turned bright red, like a little apple.

　"That's someone else's cup..."

　……

　The "thunderstorm" has dissipated, and the night sky is clear again as the clouds disperse and the wind blows.

　Natural disasters are often like this: they come from the sky, but do not return to the sky.

　The disaster has passed, leaving no trace in the sky, but the damage on the ground remains profound.

　No one knows who spread the news of the victory, but after a brief period of grief, the people on the ground began a frenzied celebration characteristic of the Free City.

　The monster tides from the north and south are still attacking the city, but after such a long period of buffer, more manpower has been mobilized from within the city to provide support.

　Professor Steven Harvey's Sea of ​​the Dead, after driving away all the monsters in the west, set off to the north and south.

　It is expected that the monsters surrounding the city will be completely eliminated soon.

　At that time, the area outside the three city walls will become a treasure trove for scavengers.

　Countless monsters perished here, though most of their flesh had decayed under the influence of necromancy. However, the remaining crystals, bones, horns, and other artifacts are still extremely valuable.

　Moreover, the decay of flesh and blood actually facilitates large-scale cleanup, and prevents the spread of plague due to the untimely disposal of corpses.

　Even if Professor Steven Harvey were to retract the necromancy, returning souls to their original forms, the City of Freedom would still need to hire priests to walk back and forth across the battlefield, spreading the light of purification across the land before it could open.

　But that was a different kind of celebration.

　Now that the dust had settled, everyone except Professor Steven Harvey, who was still working diligently, and Lord Montilfarie, who was rushing to maintain order in the city, had already climbed into the pumpkin carriage.

　The space inside the carriage can be extended appropriately, so it won't feel crowded even with a few people squeezing in.

　Everyone sat around the table, but their eyes were fixed on the "Orb of Truth" placed on the table.

　This "Sphere of Truth" has a gold outer shell, but it is actually hollowed out, with a transparent sphere inside.

　If you look closely now, you can see Aleister Aldridge sealed inside with the naked eye.

　Aleister Eldridge's body was now joined together. However, the surface of his body was covered with blood vessels, indicating that it was merely attached and had not yet healed.

　Its body was split in two, and the cut surface was covered with a layer of coagulated blood plasma, making it impossible to see anything else.

　Compared to its state when it was sealed within the Holy Church, its current condition is clearly far more miserable.

　With everyone staring at the "Orb of Truth," they finally had the leisure to consider a question they had been pondering for some time.

　What should we do after we catch Number Two?

　……

　Simply sealing it is not enough.

　Having experienced the "Blood Princess" Ophelia, everyone here already knows that the seal can be bypassed through a container to kill the Demon King and thus allow him to be reincarnated.

　Although only "Blood Princess" has traveled this route in the past ten years, once someone has done it once, it is inevitable that they will do it again.

　Moreover, the era to come will become even more unpredictable due to the resurgence of the gods, and it's hard to say for sure what will happen next.

　Ideally, of course, we would find a solution that solves the problem once and for all.

　Moreover, it's time to consider how to deal with the "Demon King No. 1" inside Witt's body.

　……

　Professor Sylph and the others actually had some ideas on how to solve the problem once and for all. After all, they had been involved in the incident and had a very deep impression of some things.

　However, that's not a plan that can be implemented here.

　“We should call out Number One and ask him,” Professor Jones suggested.

　"And this 'Corpse-Stitching Demon' also needs to be dealt with first," Sister Kallian complained, covering her nose.

　"I haven't even complained about the smell of my carriage yet, and you're already starting?" Professor Mitia chuckled and said, "With two black beasts missing, I need to find one or two replacements."

　“Let the wyverns hold them off for now,” Professor Sylph said, shaking her head. “There’s also a pot of bat porridge in the car.”

　A "Corpse-Stitching Demon," half a "Dragon Horn," a pot of "Bat Incarnations," a "Ghost Eye" wand, and a "toy" were their unexpected gains from this trip.

　Compared to these gains, the dragon crystals and dragon bones that Dark left behind on his way here were like rotten apples in a garbage dump—too good to throw away, but not worth eating.

　“Let’s go back to the city lord’s mansion,” Professor Mitia said with a smile. “It’s just that the city lord might not have time to entertain us, but… we have the young city lord.”

　As she spoke, she got up and walked out, took out a rein and tied it to the neck of a two-legged dragon, ordering it to pull the chariot.

　Thus, a carriage pulled by two-legged dragons, followed by four more two-legged dragons, and a huge "toy" with a wingspan of thirty meters, flew in a grand procession toward the city lord's mansion.

　If it weren't already pitch black, it would have terrified many people.

　None of them had expected to accomplish their goal on their very first day in this city of freedom. Therefore, their plans for the next phase remained somewhat unclear.

　Given Professor Sylph's personality, she would naturally take the "Orb of Truth" and return to the academy as soon as possible.

　But after the mission was completed, the team was no longer under her sole command.

　There are quite a few people who want to take a stroll around this particularly unique city.

　……

　Nothing unusual happened inside the city lord's mansion, although it wasn't quite to the point of "war raging outside the city while peace and prosperity reign within." In reality, unless there was a large-scale monster tide like today, the city's residents continued with their lives as usual.

　The few servants and cooks in the city lord's mansion these days only worry a little, and then it's over.

　As the dragons landed one after another, people quickly came to greet them. However, when the people looked up at the "Thunderous Roc" that blotted out the sky, the words they wanted to say were stuck in their throats.

　"Don't worry, it's just a little bird we found outside, it won't eat people," Professor Lily said in a hushed voice, before being scolded by Professor Sylph.

　Dark quickly returned to his assigned room and hugged the little Guhuoniao that swooped down towards him.

　He certainly couldn't bring his little bird with him when he was in danger. So he left the little bird, Magnemite, and Devimon in the room from the beginning.

　Upon returning to the city lord's mansion, he immediately went to the room to take the three little ones away. Then he gathered with everyone in the previous meeting room.

　Professor Sylph summoned two wind spirits and had them fly around the conference room, forming a protective barrier.

　Aurora wasn't here; she had started preparing dinner as soon as she arrived at the mansion and should be in the kitchen at this moment.

　“Let’s deal with this ‘Corpse-Stitching Demon’ first,” Professor Sylph said. “Shut down your five senses.”

　The group exchanged glances, but eventually focused their attention on Professor Jones.

　Whoever finds it should dispose of it.

　Professor Jones frowned slightly, then pulled out a wand and pointed it at the "Corpse-Stitching Demon" Rororo, wrapping it up in various spells and turning it into a colorful dumpling.

　Professor Sylph then took out the "switch" and turned to Witt.

　Witt sat obediently in the chair, not daring to say a word.

　When the hat on his head turned from green to red, his second consciousness was switched out.

　Perhaps because I've gotten used to it, my second sense seemed very calm.

　Because it is nighttime, it is already difficult for it to sense the presence of Number Two, and it remains completely unaware of what happened in the City of Freedom tonight.

　It was even more impossible for it to know that the final rescue it had been longing for had already been trapped inside the Poké Ball Apoo... the "Sphere of Truth"!

　Professor Sylph frowned, but still took out the "Orb of Truth," held it in her palm, and asked, "Look at this, what is it?"

　"What? A Golden King seeking..." The second consciousness subconsciously replied, and then trembled when it said "ball".

　"Confirmed, it is the so-called comrade it has been sensing all along." "Magical Beast: Goddess of the Mind's Eye" stepped out from behind it and said in a calm tone.

　The second consciousness twitched, immediately severing a thought that had just surfaced, and struggled on the spot: "You promised half a life!"

　Professor Sylph nodded and said, "Yes, I'll save it for you."

　Then she pressed the "switch," watched as Witt's hat changed from red to green, and said, "Looks like everything's alright?"

　“That’s good,” Professor Mitis said. “So, what about the issue of how to handle ‘Number One’?”

　Professor Sylph said, "If possible, of course, we should cut it off from Witt as soon as possible. It should be of no use anymore... I mean, 'Number Three' won't appear, right?"

　They have not forgotten the dual "revelation" of Dark and Eudora.

　However, Number One did not sense any presence other than Number Two, and there was no sign of Number Three being near Number Two.

　All these phenomena can only lead to the conclusion that either the "three" in "Apocalypse" does not refer to three demon kings, or "Number Three" has not yet appeared.

　After all, the "Apocalypse" will most likely come true after the start of the second semester, and now it is just a short break between the two semesters, so the timing doesn't match up.

　Since they have already captured and dealt with "Number One" and "Number Two" in advance, the prophecy of "Apocalypse" may have already been altered as a result.

　Basically, that's what prophecy is all about.

　Sometimes, prophecy becomes part of what leads to the fulfillment of future events.

　Sometimes, however, prophecy stands out as a key factor in future changes.

　The diviner is completely unable to discern this.

　Those affected can only find out whether they have successfully changed their fate after the dust settles.

　Given the possibility of "Number Three," the best course of action for now is to proceed with extreme caution.

　Furthermore, from both a safety and other perspectives, they could no longer allow "Number One" to remain inside Witt's body.

　Moreover, if the subsequent plans can be realized, it is not impossible to continue to locate "Number Three" after its emergence.

　……

　There was little objection to the matter itself, and Ophelia was particularly eager to obtain it. Therefore, it was quickly and smoothly passed by collective vote.
