Excella left Syness Castle after she separated from Suzuki and was walking with Aina who was wearing a hood over her head.

Aina looked back at Syness Castle, illuminated under the setting sun, with a little sadness.

"Humans grow. And demons too can grow, don't they?"

Aina, who spoke so quietly, seemed more mature than when Excella first met her.

"Coexistence between humans and demons... ——— Now more than ever, I can believe it is not a pipe dream. And I, like Suzuki, want to make that ideal a reality."

"Miss Aina, what will you do from now?"

"I'm going to stay in this town for a while. I was entrusted as Suzuki's bodyguard by Lady Leelou after all."

Excella giggled as she walked.

"…WHAT!?"

Aina asked with a cute, frowning face.

"Before I noticed, Lord Hero had rapidly added more and more allies around him. I'm happy about that."

After muttering, "Fuu—n. Yeah." unconsciously, Aina's face turned scarlet red.

"I-I'm not particularly interested in Suzuki as a member of the opposite sex, you know–!"

"That's was 'Revolving Shining Shyness (Tsumudere),' wasn't it?"

"Idiot! You're WRONG! Suzuki is simply my charge that requires protection! That's all there is to it!"

"I see. If so, I'm glad to hear that."

"Y-You are glad!? You are glad you said… Could it be that you, about Suzuki…?"

"Yeah. We can almost see Suzukiland now! Please stay as long as you like. Lord Hero would also be pleased if you do."

Excella smiled broadly as she said to Aina. …… After guiding Aina to Suzukiland, Excella returned to the castle alone because she had something on her mind.

After all, she wanted to tell Nephira directly, from her own mouth.

She told the skeleton soldier guarding the door that she wanted to meet Nephira. Excella was let through to the former queen's quarters sooner than she had expected.

"Lady Nephira. A slave of Suzuki wants to see you…"

"Excella, huh? That's fine. Let her through."

After inviting Excella into her quarters, Nephira drove away the spear-wielding skeleton soldier guarding the door with a shooing hand.

After the two of them were alone, Nephira, as usual, leaned back in her chair as she usually does, and said in her usual dignified manner.

"So what is it that you want from me?"

Excella straightened up and bowed to Nephira. Then she looked at Nephira with a serious expression on her face.

"Lady Nephira. I will be honest with you. Up until now, I have always detested you. From Syness Castle to Leirune Kingdom ——— I know that you took everything from me."

"Fuun. After all this time, are you saying you want me to apologize to you?"

Excella felt tremendous pressure from Nephira. A presence and attitude that she never shows when dealing with the hero. Even so, there was no fear in Excella's heart. She looked Nephira in the eyes and said clearly.

"And now, Lady Nephira is trying to take even Lord Hero from me."

"H-HUH–!? W-W-What in the hell do you mean by THAT–!?"

Nephira suddenly lost her dignity and panicked. Excella raised the corner of her mouth a little in a bit of a mean manner.

"You don't have to hide it! Since I know that Lady Nephira is in love with Lord Hero!"

"I-I am not p-p-particularly!"

"The way that Lady Nephira looks at Lord Hero with her eyes... Those are the eyes of a maiden in love. All of you demons might not realize it, but it's obviously clear-as-day to me."

Excella continued to talk to Nephira, whose face was stained with embarrassment as her breathing had become rougher.

"Well then, why on the boat, did you approach Lord Hero with all your sex appeal on full display? It is unreasonable to claim that you are not very interested in him!"

"W-WHAT IS IT, with yoouu!!? Going out of your way, to come to me to say SUCH THINGS!? Do you have a PROBLEM?!"

"NO."

Excella shook her head in negation. Then she told Nephira what she really wanted to say.

"I was deeply moved. By Lady Nephira's feelings at that time, which transcended even the barriers between races."

This was regarding Nephira's embrace of the Hero, who had lost his cuteness skill due to Zhaviest's gospel. It was an occurrence that Excella considered impossible.

The same was true for all the demons in the Thunder-Lance Charge, Duma of the Immortal Fleet, and Leos of the Beast King's Oni Squad. Just as Aina had said, the demons could also grow.

(No, it was the hero's wishes, thoughts, and actions that moved the hearts of the demons.)

Excella was deeply moved, and at the same time, she felt jealous. Nephira and the hero at that time, were like sweethearts in love, embracing each other.

Nephira seemed to have recovered from her discomposure and returned to her normal tone of voice.

"Deeply moved, you say? Excella. I don't understand exactly what you're talking about."

Excella shook off her feelings of loneliness and cheerfully declared.

"Lady Nephira! I, will not be defeated!"

"I really don’t understand what the hell you are blabbing about"

"That's all I wanted to say. I apologize for the inconvenience."

"...wait."

When Excella was about to leave after a slight bow, Nephira spoke. While Excella was nervous that as expected she had gone beyond rudeness, Nephira said as a matter of course.

"It's time for dinner. You come, too. Let's eat together."

"Y-Yes!"

With a big smile on her face, Excella replied to Nephira.
