The end of the world

Thus, the northern region of the Fortia Kingdom regained its peace due to the Duke. 

With the defeat of the bandits led by Sire, the Duke's reputation soared, a testament to his power and dignity as the lord of the northern region. 

Yet, while Trent basked in his people's praise and love, he couldn't help but feel conflicted by how easily Isao changed everyone's impression of him. 

Before, when Isao was rampant, everything was in chaos, but when he came to him that time, everything became peaceful, and he was hailed so high as if he was the king or even the hero who defeated a Demon King. 

'If they know the truth...' 

Trent thought at how cute and innocent the people in his region were, and at the same time, he marveled at Isao's mastery over psychology. 

After he agreed with Isao's request, Isao directly helped him. Not only did he return all the people he had caught, but he also made the bandit groups he had formed vanish from the surface, then told Trent to say that he had won against the bandit group, bringing the glory to his family to another level. 

At the same time, everything was done low-key, and no one knew of their deal except for the two of them. 

Frankly, Trent had prepared to give his everything, but unexpectedly, Isao only asked for a few territories, and whenever they were, it was all fine, so he just gave the territories to those noble families that were killed by Isao and then made him into a baron. 

It might be hard for others, but as he was the duke and also had full authority over the northern region, it was all fine. 

If someone dared to say anything, then they would be as good as gone. 

Frankly, having Isao gave him more benefits than not, as Isao also helped him to erase all of those who had made a mess within his region, and even if the bandits remained, this bandit group paid a tax, so everything was okay. 

Trent knew that even if he did his best, it was impossible to stop the evilness, so he might as well control it and help it, especially when it paid a tax to him. 

Regardless, if possible, he wanted his daughter to marry Isao or something similar, but then, he knew that Isao had never touched a virgin, and a virgin probably wasn't even his type. 

'Hmm... then I might as well let her continue her engagement with the third prince?' 

Trent felt that Isao might be more interested in his daughter if she had a fiance than not. 

If only Isao knew what Trent, though...

Yet, no matter what, Isao could feel that the threat that loomed on the top of his head had disappeared. As he had made peace with Trent, the threat that might be encountered by Miyabi had disappeared, and it seemed the deities of this world couldn't find him. 

Or, they might also watch him in enjoyment? 

Ignore him? 

However, no matter what, Isao felt that while he could stay in this type of world, this type of world was still dangerous for him.

Frankly, there were many types of deities that summoned the protagonist to the world of Isekai, such as those who summoned the protagonist to the world of Isekai were usually the gods of a creator who was bored and wanted fun within the Isekai World or those who wanted to apologize for killing the protagonist accidentally. 

For such deities, Isao knew that he wasn't their opponent and that they were still dangerous to him. 

However, in this case, the deities summoned a hero to defeat the Demon King or something similar, and Isao knew that he could handle them. 

After all, they couldn't even handle the Demon King in their respective worlds, so how could they handle him? 

Still, even if he had calmed down the situation of the deities in this world, he knew that he had been locked on, and his figure was still sought after, so due to that, he decided to leave this world since he didn't want to face those deities directly. 

At the same time, he also hadn't found a way to go to heaven, or rather, he wasn't sure where it was to begin with. 

'The world of Danmachi...' 

if there was a way to understand the world of Isekai, then he knew that he had to complete the world "Danmachi" or completely devour the deities who were his enemies. 

Unlike the deity of the Isekai that created the world and had the ability to summon the protagonist and even gave him absolute power, the deities in the world of "Danmachi" weren't so strong anyway, and they all out should be just about as strong as destroying a country or a city. 

It was impossible for them to completely obliterate everything in the world. 

More importantly, unlike those who knew nothing, due to his ability to replicate their DNAs, Isao understood their thoughts, so he knew that compared to this world, his safety in the world of "Danmachi" was several times better. 

'Well, there's a danger in every place.' 

Even in the world of "Mahouka," there was even an existence of another world, which made him palpitate. 

'Fortunately, it is impossible to travel between two worlds.' 

However, according to the plot, it might be possible for the existence of the opposite world to enter the world where Miya, Maya, and Saeki reside.

At the same time, Isao also speculated that if there was a reason why a magician was born in the world of "Mahouka," it was all due to the existence of another world that existed in that universe. 

However, with his current strength, it was better not to get involved in those matters, and by now, he decided to go back to the world of "Danmachi." 

Once again, the gentle orange light basked over his body, but then he was dumbfounded, realizing Syr stood before him, staring at him with affection and loving gaze. 

"..." 

Isao was speechless and forgot about Syr's confession. He had been thinking about the god of creators from another world and had not considered how to answer it. 

How should he answer this? 

If Isao didn't know Syr was Freya, he wouldn't hesitate and jump right away, but as he knew that Freya was Syr, he hesitated since he knew well the concept of loyalty didn't exist in Freya's head. 

More importantly, how could he agree to make a woman who was about the wife of Bell, the original protagonist of this world, into his girlfriend? 

'But if I refuse her, then the world...' 

The world would be as good as gone, which made him helpless. 

There were many problems that waited for him to solve, yet why did this nymphomaniac goddess want to trouble him again? 

"I-Isao-kun..." 

The silence from Isao made Syr anxious, especially after she didn't hear the answer that she was looking for. 

Yet, as she locked into his gaze, there was this slight of hope, thinking that he would accept her confession. 

Only—

"Sorry, I can't accept your confession." 

As expected, Isao didn't want Freya or Syr to become his woman. 

However, at that moment, the beautiful landscape was no longer colorful, and everything turned dim, gloomy, and murky like her current feelings, who wished to destroy this world to get the man before her.
