Only three more chapters until the end of the main story!
“Sandra…”
I hesitantly called out to Sandra, who had plunged Balmung into the ground where Marion had been standing. I mean, this was the first time I’d seen it, but Sandra’s skill is no joke. The power is definitely above the Multi-Chamber Cannon, right? Even I wouldn’t be able to defend against that.
“Fufu… Lord Hal, this time it’s finally over, isn’t it?”
“Ah…”
Turning around, she gave me a dazzling, perfect smile.
There’s no way I wouldn’t be captivated by that.
“Sandra!”
“Fufu! Lord Hal! Lord Hal!”
I hugged Sandra’s small body tightly.
“Monica! Caz!”
“Me too? I suppose I have no choice.”
“Ehehe! Hal! Hal!”
I scooped up Monica and Caz as well, spinning around in place.
We were able to achieve victory because we had these Precious Things with us.
—We were able to seize the future.
“Really… you guys are amazing!”
“You all are truly impressive!”
“Indeed! Indeed! A splendid battle, I’m impressed!”
Lize, Christia, and Carla jumped at us with smiles, joining in the spinning.
Even these heroines of EnHaza chose me, the stepping stone, instead of the protagonist Wilfred, and fought alongside me. I’m truly happy.
“Hal-san is amazing! To defeat even that monster!”
“Oh! I was seriously freaked out!”
This time, Liliana, the protagonist of Galhaza, and Lloyd, a romanceable character, joined the circle.
Originally, they were from a different game and I never thought we’d cross paths, but before I knew it, these two had also become my Precious Things. It’s funny, isn’t it?
Moreover, Liliana is probably the strongest among us if she’s unarmed. Galhaza is terrifying.
“Haha… I can’t believe it’s Harold…”
“Yeah. I still want him as my right-hand man.”
“Bro’s awesome!”
Cardis gave a wry smile, Raphael looked at me with expectant eyes, and Owen also joined us.
The two princes who were rivals to the protagonist Wilfred in EnHaza, and the Fourth Prince who appeared as a substitute for that protagonist. They cooperated with me, the Incompetent Rascal Prince, and we ended up launching a coup d’état together.
“Lyra!”
“…………………”
I held her head, the only part of her remaining after Themis’s attack, and added her to the circle.
She’s a Mana Doll. If we return to the surface, McLaren, her creator, is there, so he should be able to restore her to her original state. Or rather, I’m really glad I didn’t execute that man…
So until then, please bear with it.
And then.
“Hey Yuri! What are you doing!”
“Ah… M-Me…”
“You’re one of my Precious Things too, so it can’t start without you!”
“! U-Um…!”
Yuri was holding back somewhat, but when I forcefully pulled his hand, he teared up but happily jumped in with a smile.
He was also made into a puppet by Themis and has been suffering for a long time. From now on, I want him to spend his days happily with us… I thought.
“Whoa!?”
“Ah!?”
Getting carried away, I tripped and fell spectacularly.
On top of me, Sandra, Monica, Caz, Lize, Christia, Carla, Liliana, Lloyd, Cardis, Raphael, Owen, and Yuri piled on one after another. Heavy. I’m being crushed.
But.
“Sandra… I’m so happy.”
“Fufu, me too.”
Surrounded by my Precious Things, Sandra and I hugged each other again with smiles.

“Oh…! You’re safe!”
When Yuri teleported us outside to the Royal Palace, the Prime Minister, Minister Olson, and Lord Drake, who had been waiting, greeted us with relieved expressions.
Ah, that’s right. Yuri told me, but his ability isn’t Teleportation Magic like McLaren’s, but Spatial Movement.
Thinking about it, it makes sense that he could take us to that empty world or move us instantly.
Apparently, it was something given to the Norse People by Themis, and Monica, also a descendant of the Norse People, could use it too… or rather, she was using it normally.
She doesn’t seem to realize it herself, but it seems that her instantly attacking the enemy from behind was due to that ability. Seriously, why doesn’t Monica understand?
Well, anyway.
“King Aival did not comply with the recommendation and clearly showed murderous intent, so we had no choice but to execute him. Please bury the corpse in the throne room with respect. However, not as a king, but as a sinner.”
“That is… no, I understand.”
The Prime Minister looked like he wanted to say something, but in order to assert the legitimacy of our coup d’état, we’ll have King Aival endure the shame.
“Prime Minister, Minister Olson, I’ll leave the rest to you. Please ensure that the next king is never decided by a fiancée again.”
I bowed deeply to the two of them.
Of course, it’s partly because that’s how the EnHaza Scenario was, but even so, such a ridiculous thing should never happen.
Because it causes so many people to become unhappy.
“Understood. We will establish laws to prevent royal tyranny from happening again.”
“Please leave it to us.”
The two took my hands and nodded firmly.
But I felt like their eyes were filled with so much expectation, so I averted my gaze with all my might.
“Sandra, everyone. Shall we go home?”
“Yes!”
We returned to the Dormitory in the carriage, just as we had come.
