Chapter 38

"...Thank you for saving us!" A young woman yelled out in a loud voice, hoping it was loud enough to have reached the unknown person.

And to her relief, it did. The mysterious person landed on the ground and was now looking at them.

"No need to thank me." Seal shook his head.

"If you didn't help us... I'm afraid we might have become toys for them to play with." The young woman said with a pale face as she remembered how close she was to being captured. It was to be noted that the people in the group of travelers had little to no fighting capability.

"I'm just passing by, so I just decided to help you." Seal once again shook his head and said.

When the people heard what he said, they couldn't help but be thankful to him again. Had it not been for him deciding to help them, then they might've had a fate worse than death.

"Oh, my apologies! My name is Regena, and I am the first princess of the Algore Kingdom. And these people here are my relatives." The young woman introduced herself and the other people.

(A/N: On the translation, it says Algore, but on the wiki, it says Argoa. Do you guys know which one is correct? I will be using Algore for now.)

"What's a princess doing here?"

"Um... W-We were exiled, so we could only wander around while trying to find a place to stay for the night."

"Hmm," Seal thought for a second before nodding.

"Okay, you guys should leave now." Seal waved his hands, and the frozen goblins combusted, turning into a mass of flames.

Just as Seal turned around, intending to leave for his destination, the Holy Lenaria Republic, He heard Regena's voice behind him.

"Savior, um, can you help us?" She asked.

"...I can't help you. But I can give you a place to stay. If you want to, head to the Demon King's castle."

"But... isn't that the stronghold for demons?"

"You don't have to worry about it. Just tell them that I sent you, and then they will let you stay.

"Okay..." Regena said even though she was a little perplexed. What relation did he have with the demons?

"Goodbye then." Seal said as he began rising into the air.

"Wait! When will we meet again? And what is your name?!" Regena yelled.

Seal paused for a moment and said.

"...My name is Seal, Seal Azathoth. And regarding when we will meet again... If fate let us meet again, then we will." He said before flying off into the distance.

"*Yawn*! It's so boring." Seal said as he walked around the streets of the Holy Lenaria Republic.

Nothing else interesting happened during his way to the Holy Lenaria Republic. The distance between Nargol and the Holy Lenaria Republic was quite large, so it took him almost an hour to get there.

Seal planned on going to the hot spring to relax. The hot spring here was great from what he remembered and from what his family told him, so he wanted to give it a try.

As he walked down the way that led to the hot spring, many gave him a weird look. They thought he was an odd one out of all the people here because he wore a mask. O

But Seal didn't care what those people think.

As he came closer to his destination, Seal didn't expect anything else to happen, but to his surprise, he met the Hero of Light's sister, Kyouka, and her maid, Kaya.
