Oh?
Good morning!
It's Hero-sama, Rico-chan, and Éclair-san!
Oh my!
We brought you some souvenirs.
Earlier this morning, we and the imperial guards helped with the harvest.
We wanted to share some with you all.
Thank you very much.
It's so lively this morning.
How thoughtful of you, Hero-dono.
Master-sama!
Isuka-san!
Good morning!
Are the two of you going somewhere?
Yeah, that's right.
An old friend is coming to visit.
Wow!
A dragon?!
Hina, Isuka!
It's been a long time.
We and Kratos are here to pick you little kids up.
Adel. Valerie.
Wow, long time no see!
You guys can't possibly be going with those two!
We are old friends.
I guess you could say that we go way back.

As long as you are there, I will soar high into the blue sky.
「Battle at the Sealed Cave!˩
Well then, we are off.
During the time that the Hero King fought,
d'Arquien-sama and Isuka-sama were in the Hero's party.
The Hero Adel, the Summoner Princess,
the Demon King Valerie, the Swordsmith Isuka...
...and the young swordsman, Hina Maxima.
Hina?
Isuka-san calls her that as well.
Biscotti's lords gave her the name Brioche d'Arquien when she was knighted.
Both names are very dear to her.
I'm really surprised.
That was the first time I got to see a dragon.
Kratos is part of the Hero's party, too.
By the way, where are they headed to today?
I heard they're going to the Fraise Desert in the south.
Something about going to check out a Demon Seal.
So hot...
It's really hot as usual.
Kratos, we aren't far from the Sealed Cave.
We're counting on you.
It's been a long time since we were last here.
Right you are.
The spirits of this place seem to be doing well.
It's so peaceful.
There don't seem to be any problems with my seals here.
That's really amazing, Isuka.
I just hope the dormant demons within their seals...
...are going to return to their original forms.
If my theory is to be correct, then there's no doubt in my mind that they will.
Demon transformation is caused by sickness of the gods and spirits of the land.
With the right treatment, I'm sure they will recover.
I hope they'll return to normal once the Demonic Longsword is removed.
The purpose of the seals here is to allow the demons to naturally return to their spirit state.
Our experiment is progressing well.
All we can do is wait for results.
Well, it's not my problem even if the demons run wild!
This seal seems to be really damaged.
The third seal.
It really has been a long time.
Which demon was it?
If I remember correctly, a huge mouse demon.
That's right! He was really troublesome.
At that time, this sword was quite the masterpiece.
The third seal has been broken.
Deploying cave shutters due to the emergency situation in order to prevent demons from escaping.
How careless of me!
Well, these kinds of things do happen.
If the demon is escaping, then all we can do is seal it back up!
We strike the moment it comes out!
Yes!
Would the person responsible for demon sealing please take care of the situation?
Little mice?
Was it this type of demon?
Mice, please stop!
You must not run wild!
Did it split during the sealing?
That's really unexpected...
Yes.
No matter.
We have no choice but to catch them.
Heavenly Crimson Blade!
They turned into their ball form?!
That means that these little ones are already protected by the Flonyard power!
They are on their way to becoming spirits!
At the very least, they are no longer demons!
Yes, that's correct.
Hey, lovebirds!
You can rejoice later.
These are still half-spirits with unknown eating habits and breeding speed.
The threat they present hasn't changed!
That's right.
Hina, can't you communicate with them?
They're all really hungry!
They're not in the mood for reasoning!
I guess we have no choice.
That's right!
Adel! Valerie!
You two...
Damn those mice.
Both of you...
What's this?!
We got younger?!
This one as well!
Anyway, you guys...
Hina, above you!
H-Heavy...
Hina!
Let's go, Hina!
You two as well!
This looks bad.
Let me handle this!
Adel, that is...
The recoil!
Adel!
Looks like this place isn't safe either.
Adel! Valerie!
Is there anything we can do?
It's no good.
My Demon King Seal won't activate.
Hina is in this state as well.
We have no other choice but to call for help.
Help?
We have the network we set up with the heroes, remember?
Its name is: Brave Connect!
Hello fellow young'uns!
Are you free right now?
Adel-sama?
The way you look seems a little....
Did something happen?
To tell you the truth, we are having some demon problems right now.
Heroes, would you please lend a hand?
Yes!
We are coming right now!
If demons are involved, everyone should go together!
The enemies are small animals.
Please prepare nets and cages.
We're counting on you.
Understood!
There are some fishermen here, right?
It's an emergency situation!
Please lend us your fishing gear.
Sure! We'd be honoured to help, Your Highness!
We can borrow anything we need from here.
Now let's hurry.
Okay!
This is really escalating.
Indeed.
Adel-sama, the Biscotti group is ready!
The Galette and Pastillage Alliance...
...are all ready to go!
Good job, my dearly beloved Heroes.
Brave Connect Link!
This is...
...a summoning circle?!
Hero summon!
Everyone!
This looks good.
Isuka-san!
Everyone, you look so small...
Even you, my master....
Kyaa, mice!
Just look at how many there are!
Everyone! Please be careful!
Mercurius!
Nanami! Highness!
We need to deal with these mice!
Leave it to us!
Yes!
Rebecca, Couvert, I deeply apologise for all the trouble.
It's all right.
I'm happy that my ancestor can rely on me.
Since all three heroes are here...
Cinque, Yukikaze, Éclair!
Leave it to us!
One and...
Lion King Lightning Wave!
Here we go...
Rebecca!
Palette Card! Gravity Ball!
Nice one, Rebecca!
We caught quite a lot of them.
Yeah, with this we should soon be-
Éclair! Yukki!
What a big catch!
I wonder if everyone on the other side is okay.
Let's split and go cheer for them.
Those guys...
Becky!
Couvert!
Everyone!
Oh my, everyone shrank.
We let our guards down.
To fit into our clothes, I used my ninjutsu skills, but....
I feel so ashamed.
Cou-sama, please take everyone to a safe place.
There are only a few left.
Cinque and I will catch them!
Cinque, Gaul...
Take these...
"These?"
Jewels?
I'm sure these will protect you two.
Understood, Adel-sama!
We shall keep them with us!
Let's go, Gaul!
Wait! I want to go too!
Me too!
Good, there should be a dead end up ahead.
They aren't making this easy for us!
It's huge!
Why is that one so big?!
This one must be the boss!
No doubt!
Bright power?
Not good!
Defender!
T-That was dangerous.
Cinque, Highness Gaul!
Are you two safe?!
Becky! Nanami!
We are fine!
Of course we are!
We can't let such a dangerous demon roam free!
We are going to beat it and capture it!
They grew up?!
That's right.
This mouse bastard used the stolen life-energy to grow into a giant!
N-No, that's wrong!
It's not like that...
Leave it for later!
With Cinque's and my...
...Anti-Demon Utlra Combination special move, we shall finish him off!
Furious...
...Lightning...
...Conflagration!
Heavenly Edge! Sealing Strike!
Wow.
So cool!
Cinque, you seem...
You too, Gaul.
You're huge!
Now you notice?!
So the Hero King's crystals helped you take on this form.
It seems that a seal appeared on the bottom of the crystal.
This one as well.
It looks like it's etched in.
This is proof that the crystal has accepted you as its owner.
It means that Cinque and His Highness are real hero material.
By the way, why do you think we haven't returned to our normal forms yet?
We shall return to normal soon enough.
I hope so.
But you are really so cool, Gaul-sama!
You're so wonderful!
Is that so?
I hate to admit it, but you don't look half bad.
Cinque, you really do get much bigger than me!
No, you're just really small, Nanami
This is such a strange sight to behold...
It really warms my heart.
Oh, you are going back to normal!
Right.
That means...
Gaul-sama, cover your eyes!
Cinque, you are not allowed to stay here!
Hero Stinger!
We're back to normal!
And so my ninjutsu...
R
i
P
You're so heavy!
I'm not heavy.
...is no longer effective...
I thought as much.
Everyone, I have your clothes right here!
Fuck, my eyes!
Oh my...
Thank you for being so considerate, Becky.
You're welcome.
We're turning.
Hold on tightly.
Okay.
I'm sorry, not there.
If you could hold on differently, please...
I'm sorry, did I tickle you?
It's not like that.
It's just that when you hold me in this form, Cinque...
How should I say it...
It feels like you're being a criminal.
A criminal?!
Ah, that's wrong!
I didn't mean it that way.
The problem is how you look.
A criminal.
Ah, that's why I'm telling you...
Well, the mice have been safely sealed again.
I hope they shall be reborn as gods and spirits of the land.
We are back to normal!
It's a bit of a shame.
Well, if we wait a few years, then they shall turn into that form again.
I'm looking forward to it.
Thank goodness!
I prefer this type of Cinque better.
If I touch you, you're not going to treat me like a criminal, right?
I won't! I won't! See?
It's all right.
Me too!
Yukki! Cou-sama!
Éclair, join us as well!
No, I'm good. Thank you!
Thanks to everyone, this case was easily resolved.
And well, that's what happened.
Huh?! That's so mean!
Everyone else always gets to have all the fun!
It's so unfair!
Being left out is lonely!
Sorry, it was just so sudden.
But to make up for it, I promise I'll play with you tomorrow.
Really?!
Of course!
I'm so happy!
Rebecca-san, was adult-Cinque cool?
Um, actually, very cool!
I wish I could've seen him!
I really wanted to show him to you, Princess.
So, what was he like?
Those two are getting along well, as usual.
I have to say, travelling in the night sky with my descendant is quite nice.
If it's OK with you, I'd be happy to accompany you any time.
Ah, I went through so many awful things.
My eyes still hurt.
It's because of your usual behaviour.
Exactly.
My eyes hurt.
