The Author's POV

"Do me a favor and watch over the demons while I go back and rest for a bit."

I said as I gazed at the others who were staring at me with different expressions on their faces.

My vision was all messed up, and my mind was cloudy. It took everything I had in order to keep from passing out right there on the spot.

Even though I had taken several potions and my body was slowly healing, the actions I had taken in a few moments ago had used up what little energy I had left in my body, and I was now barely clinging to my consciousness by a thread.

The only reason why I was still hanging on was because I didn't want to show the demons any weakness.

Who knew what would happen if they saw me pass out on the spot?

"I got it."

Thankfully, the others were able to understand what I was trying to convey, and they all nodded their heads while maintaining a serious expressions.

I smiled in relief when I saw this.

"Great."

"Let me go with you."

Amanda offered me a helping hand as she walked next to me and opened the door that led to the insides of the castle.

"...Thank you."

I struggled to express my gratitude as my legs felt like lead and my vision wobbled.

'Not yet.'

I clenched my teeth and forcefully moved my legs tower the door.

On the surface, I sustained the solemn look that I had after defeating Suriol, but internally, I was experiencing excruciating pain that was radiating through every part of my body.

From the corner of my distorted vision, I could see Amanda biting her lips in concern as she observed my struggle. However, as if she understood my thoughts, she turned her head away and pretended to be unaware of my struggle.

I was thankful for that and mustering every little bit of my willpower I finally walked into the castle.

Clank!

It wasn't until I heard the sound of the door closing behind me that I breathed a sigh of relief.

'...Thank god I made it.'

My body went limp and my vision turned black after that. Just as I was expecting to hit the stairs in front of me, I felt something soft slowly embrace me as I heard a soft whisper inside of my ears.

"Thank you for your hard work."

A week later.

"Almost everything has been sorted."

Silug's loud voice echoed out loud as he entered a large hall where a number of figures were seated behind a large oval table made of wood. His gaze was drawn in particular to the individual who was seated at the head of the table.

He appeared to be rather uninterested in what was going on as he rested his head on his arm which was propped up on the table.

Sparing Silug a short glance, he asked.
