Chapter intermission 4
"Head miko-sama, I'm home . "
Sera enters the sanctuary while looking livelier than ever . This child always looks happy, but it's rare for her to be this cheerful .
"What's happened Sera . Did you meet your lover?"
"I, it's not like that! Chevalier-sama isn't my lover . "
This child is really bad at lying .
Since I was a bit interested, I asked about that chevalier person .
"There's this chevalier-sama who helped me with the food distribution, it felt like I had met him mysteriously, it's been on my mind . Right, he's a person with similar atmosphere to head miko-sama, tender, or rather, flexible, how should I put it--"
While hearing Sera speaks fondly of her love, I've had my suspicion that this chevalier person might be Nanashi-san from the other day, even though it's unfounded . I wonder if it's because I've been thinking about Nanashi-san all the time lately .
It's not a love at old age you know?
I received an oracle from the ceremony that I did at the dawn of that time that the demon lord who was supposed to revive in the duchy capital had been annihilated . Of course I immediately sent a messenger to duke-sama, but it can't be announced publicly yet since there are other temples' honors to consider . Of course, the king had promised that he would definitely announce it, so the announcement about the annihilation of the demon lord would probably be told during the kingdom conference in the spring .
"Head miko-sama, you look really happy about something you know? Did you get a lover?"
"Ufufu, I was just engrossed with thoughts about Nanashi . "
It looked like she wanted to counter, but she's still soft huh . To be so upset about my joke . Ufufu, her heart is restless like she's really in love . When the demon lord season is over, it might be a good time for me to retire from head miko position soon .
I don't think that Sera will forget her duty, but let's give her a warning to keep the relationship at healthy scope just to be sure . A miko won't be able to receive oracles if she loses her virginity . It might be cruel for a teenage girl, but she has to wait until an oracle that states the demon lord season is over descends .

I met Sera's lover--it might be better to call him a candidate of one--in the duke castle . He's really popular, and surrounded by girls . Ara ara, oh Sera . If you have such face, he'll laugh at you you know?
Still, what a nice smell . It's not just sweetness from sugar . I know that it's out of stock .
However, this voice .
It's exactly like Nanashi-san though . I wonder if he's his twin brother?
His level is half of Nanashi's, and even his skills composition is different after all . The things that are the same are his age, voice, and hair color, I guess his height is about the same too .
Since I was together with old acquaintances from Parion and Garleon temples who I had happened to meet across when I was congratulating Tisrad-sama for his wedding, I whispered him (Satou) leading words directly, but rather than getting shaken, he was perplexed instead . Looks like I was mistaken .
I might be thinking about Nanashi-san too much .
Ufufu, I shouldn't be one to make fun of Sera . I look like a maiden in love .

"Good evening, head miko-sama . "
He's really elusive isn't he .
How did he invade I wonder? I didn't feel feedback from space magic, so I think it's not that .
"I've come here today to ask about the oracle regarding demon lord . "
"Ara? You've annihilated it right?"
"It must have been defeated by a passing hero . "
He wants to play dumb that it's not him to the end huh .
"You won't announce that the demon lord has been defeated?"
"I've told his excellency the duke directly, but the 『Annihilated』 oracle haven't come to the other temples, so we can't announce that the demon lord has been annihilated from Tenion temple alone . "
Each temple is most likely questioning whether the [Each of the foretold demon lord] is annihilated, not the one in the duchy capital underground .
In other words, the demon lord season this time is not over yet--in that regards, the fact that the duchy capital is already excluded from that might be a small blessing . Thanks to Nanashi-san .
