"The mysterious figure is an important person who comes from the kingdom of Yorokobi no Bunya….. But I don't really know the true origin of that figure…. For he is present when the kingdom is in considerable trouble…." Said Suna while sighing.

"Why did he come in such a situation….? Or maybe he was traveling there….?" Ask Sirlia in confusion.

"I don't really know the reason either. For I also met him when I heard a report from the royal guards."

"That means he just came….. (Never have there been any crimes from the report.)"

"Everything started from the commotion that happened right near the sand kingdom. The wandering monster frightened the villagers with its sudden appearance."

"What kind of monster can bring down the kingdom….?"

"A monster with a large worm shape belonging to the Sand Worm species. It is said that the creature was quite ferocious and often disturbed the pedestrians nearby."

"Means the difficulty level to defeat the monster is quite difficult huh….?"

"Not only is it difficult, but the villagers also prefer to avoid the monster rather than being its easy target."

"(It turns out the monster is terrible….. It seems that I was too focused on that figure without realizing the circumstances around…. And I also stayed in the kingdom long enough.)"

"The peak of the figure managed to defeat the monster with its own strength. And not just one but five monsters at once."

"Whataaa.….…? How could he defeat that monstrous monster….?"

"Eitherway.… Most importantly his actions were truly appreciated by the King."

"(Well.…. Great for him too.)"

"When he defeated the monster…. Rebut the residents panicked not because of it and the royal guard was hard-faced face the situation."

"(I'm guessing.…He must have waged his very dangerous dark magic.)"

"This report is heard to the King's ears. And finally the King directed his best army to see the situation."

"Then what happened there…?"

"We came in a hurry, because we had to catch up with the information. Luckily there was one of the government guards who was deft in tracing the shortcut to the crime scene. And when we reached our destination, we found a person wearing a black robe all over."

"(Don't-don't figure it.)"

"He had a very strong dark aura. Plus its existence also made the guards frightened. But how else, we were already in place so I decided to direct them not to panic too much."

"(Even its existence has intimidated people around it yes.)"

"Surprisingly that figure did not attack us with its dark magic. So I came to the conclusion that this figure was not as terrible as it seemed."

"(It was Suna's first time…. Try if you already know his true nature.)"

"I try to communicate with him slowly. But that figure just doesn't seem to catch my conversation. But he could listen to my heart with his telepathic magic."

"Delivery.…? That's high-level magic, right…..? Then she's a top-level witch huh….."

"I doubt your words. Because he also has a great magic that can defeat the five sand monsters earlier."

"(Don't he be a legend-class magic user again.....?)"

"About a long time we brought him to the king. In the royal palace this figure is welcomed like a hero. All the inhabitants of the kingdom cheered on his achievements earlier. Because no one has ever been able to defeat that monster until now."

"Next what is the figure talking about with His Majesty the king….?"

"The king had opened his conversation with that figure with a very luxurious food banquet. But the figure did not answer any of the questions the King asked him."

"Why so.…?"

"What did he say….?"

"He only said that he had come from a faraway place and was wandering in search of a legendary relic at the northern end of the kingdom."

"Relic.…? What happened to the relic….? Why is he looking for her….?"

"So, I still can't confirm it for sure. The most important thing is that he did the adventure from the beginning."

"(What does that mean….? I hope it's not strange...?)"

"Slowly the conversation between the king and the figure went smoothly without the slightest problem. The king had offered a few deals to the figure."

"deal.….?"

"Yes a deal that covers the security of the kingdom. Where the King will give some great reward if the mysterious figure can guarantee the security. But the King gave him certain conditions so that this figure could keep the deal."

"Then how did the figure react after hearing the requirements that the king gave….?"

"He just nodded and took it for granted."

"(Any...when I can feel that the agreement and terms are not beneficial to him.. But why does he still accept it..?)"

"After the two sides agreed to the deal, the mysterious figure began to take over the position of royal command and began to climb his expedition to the relic."

"When did it happen….?"

"It's been quite a while, about three to four months ago…."

"How is the state of the kingdom now….? And what is the attitude of the current king….?"

"The kingdom is safely under control under the king's leadership. He thanked the mysterious figure for being completely helped."

"so yeah.…"

"You yourself.….. Why do you want to know the story of that person….? Don't you know him….?"

"I don't understand too much either. For I have only met his figure a few times."

"Do you know the existence of that figure…..?"

"No. I don't know at all."

Sirlia covered up the fact that she had met a mysterious figure in order to dig up more information from Suna. He did not want this man he knew to be his enemy now, for he feared that a futile battle would ensue. So he insisted on being able to absorb every bit of information about the mysterious figure to its roots. Because one day he will reunite with that figure.

Sirlia and Suna have eaten all the dishes. The immense satisfaction was seen from the faces of the two as if the food had really made a very calming atmosphere for both of them. Not long after, an eagle appeared from the sky. The bird moved at high speed towards Suna. Sirlia who realized the awkwardness immediately lunged towards Suna to keep him away from his original place. Luckily, he did this and moved Suna to safety. But the eagle did not just move. He kept crashing back towards Suna at a speed like before. But this time Sirlia can direct her magic to make a shield around her. The bird could not attack them both.

"Maho no Ugoki: Kaze no Barrier……"

"Wossshhhhh"

"What's that cloud…..?"

"I don't know, obviously the bird's after you Suna."

"really.….? It can't be seen just like that. I'll help you, please hold on for a second."

"All right."

"Maho no Ugoki: Sand Wall…."

The magic that comes out of Suna is sand magic that adds to the durability of the shield belonging to Sirlia. The eagle was unable to attack Suna freely because its attack could be repelled by the shield. But this Eagle did not give up and continued to launch his attack until a mysterious sound came from his mouth.

"Darku Majiku : Bakudan teleportation…."

"Booooooommmm.….."
