Even if you succeed in jobless reincarnation and time magic, you must live life to the fullest.

This day will eventually come.

Zanoba had been mentally prepared for this for a long time.

He will return to the Kingdom of Xilong someday.

Therefore.

Now Zanoba can face all of this with such calmness.

Jin Jie also had something to say about this.

But from the perspective of a follower, that was not something she should say.

Cliff also considered stopping Zanoba from going back.

but……

After all.

Cliff admires Zanoba because, despite being a prince with no control over his own destiny, he still persists in pursuing his dreams.

To deny Zanoba's decision would be to tarnish that reverence.

That's what Cliff thought.

Although he was very embarrassed, he would not stop Zanoba from returning home.

however.

Only one person...

No matter what, I can't bear to let Zanaba go back.

"No...no..."

Julie clutched Zanoba's sleeve, her eyes brimming with tears, biting her lip tightly.

"Master, please don't leave me here!"

Zanaba looked down at Julie and patted her head.

Then, he looked up at me.

“…Master, I would like to ask you to take care of Julie. Although I bought her with my money, she was originally your slave.”

"..."

Zanaba has made up his mind.

This long journey through the academy has finally come to its final chapter.

……

Taking care of Julie was a piece of cake for me.

Of course I can do that very easily.

however.

What bothers me is not the need to take care of Julie, but the way Zanoba arranges things for her.

This arrangement is as if to say:

"I'm going back to die."

This argument.

This is truly unacceptable.

Moreover, what exactly is the purpose of Julie's hard work in learning earth magic all this time?

no doubt.

It was to fulfill Zanopa's wish and to lend him a helping hand.

However, Zanoba's arrangement at this moment seemed to negate all of Julie's efforts so far.

Can not accept.

How could I possibly accept that?

"Zanaba, do you think you can't survive this war?"

I asked him that question.

"..."

Zanopa remained silent.

It is not difficult to arrive at such an answer.

Rather than saying this is the only natural thing to do.

If we disregard Ankylosaurus, the military strength of the Kingdom of King Dragon is even greater than that of the Kingdom of Asura.

not to mention.

Leaving aside purely military strength.

The Kingdom of Xilong is bordered by the conflict zone to the north and the Kingdom of Wanglong to the south.

The surrounding area is mostly plains, making it easy to attack but difficult to defend.

Given this terrain, the Kingdom of Xilong might even face annihilation should war break out.

Zanopa thus drew his conclusion.

This battle carries the possibility of a "one-way trip".

Of course, this is only the worst-case scenario.

But Zanoba was undoubtedly extrapolating based on the worst possible outcome.

"Rudius, what should we do?"

Cliff asked me in a low voice.

"Zanaba is clearly going back to his death... There's no chance of winning a war against the Dragon King Kingdom, is there?"

"You can't say that... well, actually they're pretty much the same."

Although Zanaba is the son of God, he still has weaknesses.

In my previous life.

Zanopa was burned alive.

The Kingdom of Wanglong has long been aware of the existence of Zanaba and will naturally take various measures against Zanaba.

"Rudius, we can't just watch Zanoba die like this."

Cliff said with a stern face.

"That being said, I don't know what I can do. Rudius, do you have any ideas?"

"Just leave it to me."

"what?"

"I will protect Zanoba."

I made up my mind.

He turned to look at Zanoba.

"Zanaba, have you decided that you absolutely must go back?"

"Yes. It is my duty to fight against other countries. The country has allowed me to live for this reason and tolerates my willful behavior. Therefore, I have no choice but to go."

"Do you think I'd just watch you go back to your death?"

"..."

Zanaba was speechless.

Jin Jie, who was standing to the side, seemed to realize something and looked up in disbelief.

He looked anxious, as if he wanted to say something.

"Zanaba, I will go with you."

That's what I said.

Upon hearing my words, Zanaba showed a surprised and confused expression.

……

I have decided to lend Zanabalu a hand.

In order for Zanoba to survive this war.

As for what happened after the war.

If the Kingdom of Silon seeks an excuse to kill Zanaba, I will find a way to help him escape.

If the Kingdom of Silon orders Zanobah to stay, I will inquire about his last wishes.

It's better to stay.

It's fine to leave.

It's not too late to talk about all this later.

But besides that, there's another crucial question I need to understand.

Why did the Kingdom of Xilong go to war with the Kingdom of Wanglong?

This is truly incredible.

Based on Orstide's experience in the previous cycle, the attack should have been launched by the Dragon King Kingdom.

The proper course of action would have been for Pacus to bring Death and kill all the members of the royal family to become king.

But Orster has already confirmed that the King of the Dragon Kingdom is not an apostle of the gods.

The truth may be about to be revealed.
