“It was so lively before, and now it’s completely deserted, huh…”
Kubar Village, which had been bustling with adventurers and guild members during the Crystal Dragon hunt, had returned to a ghost town once the hunt was over.
Even though Chloe, Olival, and Keel had defeated the monsters, protective magic had been cast, and no new monsters could enter, it would still take some time for the village to fully recover.
“I never thought I’d have to come back here again…”
A man wearing a white priest’s robe with a hood opened the church door.
“As expected, Chloe and the others aren’t here.”
Yes, it was Lucas, the Apostle of God.
“Oh?”
Inside the church, the ceiling had collapsed, and something else…
“Did someone notice before me?”
The statue in the church had been moved, revealing stairs leading downward.
“That’s strange… God said there should be…”
Despite his doubts, Lucas stepped onto the stairs leading to the basement without hesitation.
And at the destination…
“I heard the Demon King was here… but…”
There was only a cross hanging with nothing else.
“Hmm… well, if there’s no work, I guess it’s fine.”
Lucas slowly and somewhat lazily exited the room.
“Still, a golden lance, a shield of light, and a demonic eye… the story really has begun, huh.”
Muttering to himself, Lucas disappeared into the darkness.
