Oh, you're heading home now? I'd be happy to escort you to the gate.

Taromaiti expression neutral.png

That... was quite the uproar that happened in the play this time...

Taromaiti expression neutral.png

I want to hear it. What did you think? Did you have fun?

Taromaiti expression surprised.png

Hmm? Something about me seems different than normal...?
Maybe I'm still startled about what happened.

Taromaiti expression sad.png

...... I suppose I have been a little too empathetic.

Taromaiti expression anger.png

I was originally a "knight of virtue"...
Many people back in my homeland referred to me as the "demon king."

Taromaiti expression anger.png

I only followed the path that I believed in.
Though, some called it "justice" and some "evil."

Taromaiti expression neutral.png

I hoped to find a clear answer by playing the ultimate "evil" of the story this time.

Taromaiti expression sad.png

But, I suppose I have been caught up somewhere in my heart after all.
I lost sight of what "justice" is to me.

Taromaiti expression joy.png

I never would have thought that the real "demon king" would bring me back.

You know, Taromaiti... Did you clear away the brainwashing by yourself? It's because of the "Rule" you have, Taromaiti...


Taromaiti expression smile.png

...... Huhu. You can't disdain me like that, you know.

Taromaiti expression neutral.png

Yes, my "Rule" is "corruption."
I'm able to abolish the thoughts forced onto me by other people.

Taromaiti expression joy.png

Whether I used it or not... I'll keep that as a secret. But...

Taromaiti expression anger.png

For the first time, I wanted to accept the "role of the demon king" as I was requested.

Taromaiti expression neutral.png

That, I won't deny.

Taromaiti expression sad.png

The people who once referred to me as the "demon king" in Garothman...

Taromaiti expression neutral.png

What kind of role did those people demand from me?
I wanted to know that myself.

Taromaiti expression anger.png

Then... I actually figured it out.
That... was a dreadfully pleasant feeling.

Taromaiti expression neutral.png

There was joy like that of a beast.
There was joy of uniting with your comrades and denounce your foe with evil.

Taromaiti expression sad.png

Calling someone different from you "evil"...
It was such a pleasant feeling.

Taromaiti expression smile.png

Thanks to that... I was able to reconsider it a little.
What is "justice" and "evil" to those people?

Taromaiti expression neutral.png

The path I believe in can be "evil" or "justice,"
depending on how the person perceives it.

Taromaiti expression sad.png

That is an inevitable matter no matter which position you take.

Taromaiti expression anger.png

Nonetheless, I will stick to my path.

Taromaiti expression joy.png

However, I will be called a "demon king" or "evil" again someday...


2 options
That's not gonna happen. Maybe there are things to fight for...
Taromaiti expression joy.png

......

Taromaiti expression neutral.png

... Strange. When you say that, I feel relieved for some reason.

Taromaiti expression joy.png

I'll walk my own path. As will you. However...

Taromaiti expression smile.png

I'll be watching over you while you walk a different path.
That alone will be very reassuring to me.

Taromaiti expression joy.png

And I believe that I will never shame you, at least.

Taromaiti expression neutral.png

Thank you, my Summoner. Please observe the path that I will walk.

Taromaiti expression sad.png

Y... Yes. Maybe that will happen someday in the near future.

Taromaiti expression neutral.png

When I'm called the "demon king" again, will you confront me as an "enemy"?
I don't know if we'll stand side by side as "allies," but...

Taromaiti expression joy.png

Even if you're not a lord and knight when that happens...
I want to hold an equal relationship if possible.

Taromaiti expression smile.png

Don't think too deeply about it, haha!
A knight's second-hand holds my respect.

Taromaiti expression joy.png

I look forward to the day where we meet again, "hero" with a bright smile!
