The Hero Banished Me Saying, “I Don’t Want Incompetents,” but All My Other Friends Followed Me.

Chapter 22

Prayer prays, and you'll be in time.

I came across Seraphy, whose saintly clothes were soaked in a weird liquid and stuck tightly to her body line, and Finnell, who was almost completely naked, embracing each other.

What are you doing at the Demon King’s castle! !! I was confused by the sudden sight and closed the door unintentionally, but if I think calmly, I’m sure Finnell, who was kidnapped by that Renya bastard, would have been terrified.

Perhaps her chastity has already been taken.

I just couldn’t make it in time …

Regret remains.

The remnants of the demon that remain in this room. Perhaps the demon who was humiliating Finnell was the one who soaked Seraphy’s saint’s clothes, and Seraphy must have defeated him.

So they were hugging, and I must have happened upon them.

If that is the case, I should be ashamed that I walked into such a place so tactlessly, and that I was confused by it.

But even the time for such apologies and remorse was now too much to spare.

“’Seraphy, Finnell. …… I won’t go into details, but I heard that the God of Dance Shrine is being attacked by Renya right now!”

When I thought that I heard a rushing noise behind the door, I saw Finnell, who was forced to wear a torn Luna sister’s clothes, and Seraphy, who was still wearing a liquid-covered saint’s clothes.

“If that’s the case, then we must hurry up and go home.”

“Well, Kagura-sama, thank you for coming to my rescue.”

Finnell comes out and bows her head deeply.

I put my hand on Finnell’s head with a pop.

“No, I’m sorry I couldn’t make it.”

“That’s not the case !! Originally because of my pride … and Kagra-sama was on time.

So I’m sure you’ll make it to …… Maijin Taisha!”

“Thank you, you two ride the raven, and we’ll leave the Demon King’s castle.”

“YES!!!”

Both Seraphy and Finnell ride on the back of the larger Raven.

It’s just that, after making it sound like we were going to head out right now, there was still something that bothered me.

“…… that, you know, it’s normal to wait at least for a change of clothes, but ……”

“I didn’t bring that …… change of clothes!”

“Oh, I know this is hard to look at, but I would appreciate your patience with …….”

No, it’s not that it’s unsightly, it’s rather the opposite, it’s that I can’t look at it.

I’d like to avoid looking at it as much as possible, but I don’t want to take my eyes off it so that I don’t fall off in an accident since we’re moving on a raven.

While I was struggling with this conflict, Seraphy suddenly took off her saintly clothes and got into her underwear.

“What?”

“I’m sorry, it’s just too painful to keep wearing clothes soaked in succubus bodily fluids.”

“No, no, I’m sorry, Seraphy’s in a lot of trouble and I’m so upset about all this.”

I’m still not trained enough, apparently.

Seraphy worked so hard to defeat the demon and that’s what happened, and then I see her skin and I get upset.

If I got upset, Seraph would be embarrassed.

And I didn’t even get there in time to help Finnell.

She took care of me when I was on time. There is no reason why Finnell, who was dressed like that naked after being kidnapped by Renya, was safe.

Finnell had a hard time because I didn’t make it to St. Luna in time.

Earlier, I couldn’t help my father who had been taken in by the Demon King.

I can’t even help the people who raised me, but I left my sword behind… What a heartless person I am.

And now I’m on my way here in a big hurry because my dad told me that the Maisha Shrine was being attacked by Renya, but I’m definitely not going to make it in time at my current pace.

It would take four days to get from the Demon Lord’s castle to the Maijin Shrine.

“Raven, can’t you increase the speed?”

“I can’t go any faster, you’ll be shaken off!”

I can’t blame it.

I’ve been thinking.

–and if we don’t, we’ll never make it, and we’ll never make it again?

Lelia and Teal remain in the Maijin Taisha.

Lelia and Teal are both strong, but wizards like Lelia have tremendous magic resistance, and are fundamentally incompatible against demons.

A light warrior like Teal had a bad time fighting against a heavy warrior like the hero who would take an attack with his armor and return with his holy sword.

After Renya arrives at Maijin, it will take at most 15 minutes to fight.

What happens then?

Lelia and Teal will be treated badly by Renya.

I don’t know if they’re going to be raped, beaten, or slashed, but I’m sure they’re going to be put through something painful and difficult that will make me want to cry.

And Renya, as a demon, came all the way to Maisen Taisha to beat it up.

Successive generations of dance gods, the gods, have fought thousands and tens of thousands. It may be that he intends to release the seal by destroying that company, “Hyakuyoukai,” which is sealed with annoying monsters that couldn’t be killed.

If that shrine is destroyed, the world will be destroyed.

Even if they don’t perish, many will die, suffer, and be wretched.

Hurry up, hurry up, hurry up, if I don’t leave soon, there will be no way to get back.

No matter how impatient I am, the raven is still flying at full speed.

At this rate, it’ll take four days.

In the case of Remiburn, it was a miracle, if I may say so, that I was able to defeat Guterres before he could do anything.

After the raven crows, it takes days to move on.

It’s no surprise that I didn’t make it in time, as a demon can easily destroy a city in a few hours.

But this time – I couldn’t make it in time, so I can’t be cleared.

I prayed, and I prayed.

“‘My God, my God, – my God of Dance, I beg you, please, please let me reach the Maijin Grand Shrine right now.

Please, God, please, I beg you.

I stood up and danced on top of the raven, it was no form of dance, just the primordial dance that is the foundation of the dancing gods, the dance that I danced when I was replaced.

I danced, praying to the gods, praying that my voice would reach the gods who had protected the gods and lent me strength.

So to speak…

“Prayer kagura ‘entreaty dance’ changed to ‘transference dance'”.

Space, distort it: ！！！！！！

My prayers were answered, my pleas were answered, the space was distorted, and with a headache-inducing ‘feeling of being sucked in’, the view that had been empty for so long in the sky was distorted, and in an instant it shifted to a familiar forest view.

The raven plunges into the trees, almost making a whooshing sound.

But we’re here.

We’ve shifted one mountain, but we’re still on the grounds of Maijin Taisha.

In a blink of an eye, I moved to where the main shrine of the Maijin Taisha was located.

In the main hall, Renya, who is wrapped in black mist and looks like a demon king for a moment, grabs Teal upside down, and Teal moans with a painful expression.

Lelia was unbuttoning her robe with a frustrated look on her face.

Somehow, I understood the situation.

Anger makes me weak, I lose my cool.

I managed to suppress the blood rushing to my head and looked at the demon in front of me with cold eyes.

“Sorry, sorry to keep you waiting.”

I apologize to Lelia and Teal for the delay in my arrival.

And more than that, I sharpened my nerves, remembering the vows I’d just made in church this morning.

–Renya, the next time I see you, it’ll be when I make sure you’re dead.

I didn’t think the next time we would meet would come so soon, and I didn’t want it to.

But…

“Renya, now that we’ve met, the anniversary of your death is today.”

“Heck, go ahead, I’ll kill you and make you understand.”
