Everyone's mood quieted down. To think it would suddenly sink like this.
Considering the topic, it was a natural phenomenon. I was surprised myself.
Zara and Lumina looked around and laughed awkwardly. Zara awkwardly exclaimed.
"Ahaha, it's just a rumor! It seems mostly older people are spreading such stories. Haha!"
Lumina also chimed in.
"Indeed. No Demon King, does that make sense? If there's no Demon King, then what about the Heroes? All the Heroes will become unemployed, won't they? Hahaha!"
"Lumina, that's a bit of a different story."
When I interjected, Lumina's rabbit ears drooped down.
I, on the other hand, wanted to ask Zara.
"Zara, how did you hear that story? It doesn't seem like a topic that would spread so easily?"
Honestly, I didn't know anything about it either. But openly, in a neighborhood I didn't know, there was a rumor that the Demon King had disappeared long ago?
It was strange. Very much so.
Zara drank water with a worried expression.
