Comprehensive Manga: The Master is not here today.

"Good morning, dear Holmes!"

Perhaps in order to let her have a good rest, Holmes did not talk to her about anything after returning to the store yesterday. He even only appeared once during the party, quietly playing a supporting role in the corner.

Seeing Fujimaru Ritsuka, Holmes closed the book and responded with a smile:

"Morning. Did you get enough rest last night?"

"That's about right. It's just a rare dream."

"is it?"

Understanding what Fujimaru Ritsuka's dream meant, Holmes raised his eyebrows slightly and quickly deduced that the dream was probably related to Pest.

He didn't say much about this, but brought up another topic:

"How's your life in the small garden during this period?"

"Um……"

Hearing this, Fujimaru Ritsuka did not respond immediately, but held his chin and pondered:

"The life during this period is quite interesting. However, it seems that I have only learned a little bit about the situation in the small garden so far."

She came to the Little Garden for two reasons: one was that she was invited by the big guys to see if there was anything she could help with; the other was to investigate whether this world was suitable for Chaldea to move in.

And understanding the situation of the sandbox is for the latter purpose.

Judging from the environment alone, the small garden is obviously much stronger than the environment on Earth over there, so there shouldn't be any problem even if the entire Chaldea is moved here.

But apart from that, her understanding of the small garden is still too superficial, so she can't make a decision easily.

For example, the question about the origin of the small garden that Baiyasha told her is still in a chaotic and unresolved state. It goes without saying that there must be a big trouble hidden in it.

"Also, I originally thought that the purpose of those who invited me here was to let me fight the Demon King, but after fighting with Pest and the others, I always feel that this may not be the case."

Judging from what happened to the community [No Name] and the situation at the Fire Dragon Birth Festival, the Demon King is undoubtedly an evil person who destroys peace and order and needs to be conquered.

Because of this, the small garden will establish class rulers, giving them the obligation and equal rights to protect the lower community and resist the invasion of the demon king.

However, she did not think that defeating the Demon King would be the reason for those people to invite her to the small garden, because there were also many strong people in the small garden, and there were even strong people like Shiroysha who were willing to lower their status and come to the lower level to become a member of the class ruler who protected the lower community.

In other words, it was not necessary for her and Chaldea to defeat the Demon King. Moreover, such matters were not within the scope of Chaldea's business.

Chaldea's mission is to save humanity and save the world. Even if she will defeat bad guys out of personal likes and dislikes, when it comes to saving humanity, she will accept any power she can use, whether it is good or bad.

"Defeat the Demon King?"

In response to Fujimaru Ritsuka's remarks, Holmes pondered for a moment and said with a smile:

"Actually, if I continue thinking along this line, I don't think it's impossible. But the demon kings those people want to defeat are not the same as a demon king like Pest."

"Not the same thing?"

Seeing Fujimaru Ritsuka blinking in confusion, Holmes smiled and said:

"Then let me explain a little. Have you ever heard of the Dawn of the Little Garden?"

"Well, I know that."

The Dawn of the Small Garden refers to a period of chaos when the small garden world was created not long ago and many of the current rules had not yet taken shape. Countless gods, Buddhas and Shuras poured into the small garden to divide forces and establish order.

"Yes."

Holmes nodded in affirmation, then turned a page of the book in his hand and read:

"'At the same time, contrary to the order they created, all kinds of evils and corruption were born. Heaven and earth, day and night, good and evil, prosperity and decline, all the elements of the world from creation to destruction were filtered in the crucible and became the first disaster.'

I think the "First Disaster" recorded in the book is the real demon king in the world of Little Garden that those people should pay attention to."

"And if nothing unexpected happens, the lady named Bai Yasha seems to have been such an existence - the final trial of mankind called 'Heavenly Movement Theory'."

"White Yasha? The Heaven Moving Theory? The final trial of mankind?"

Needless to say, the theory of the movement of the universe is a cosmological view of the ancients, which holds that the earth is the center of the universe and all other stars revolve around the earth.

The final trial of mankind, to put it simply, is a trial that appears to destroy mankind, and at the same time, mankind must also usher in the destruction by its own hands.

“Eh? Wait, isn’t this…!?”

Hearing this, Fujimaru Ritsuka finally showed a surprised expression, and Holmes smiled and nodded:

"Yes."

"No matter how you look at it, the definition of humanity's final trial is very similar to human evil."

Human evil refers to various disasters that destroy humanity. They are born from human civilization, become stronger and stronger with the development of mankind, but destroy civilization from the inside of society, and exist like cancer cells.

But human evil is not an evil that destroys humanity based on hostility, but an evil that is destroyed by humanity and is an existence that humanity must overcome.

Finally, Fujimaru Ritsuka seemed to understand something and murmured:

"The true demon king born at the beginning of the Little Garden, the final trial of mankind... is that the evil of mankind in the Little Garden world?"

If the demon king they wanted her to deal with was this kind of demon king, then there would be no problem at all. After all, she was a professional in dealing with human evil.

Even she herself has become human evil (sadness).

At this moment, Fujimaru Ritsuka suddenly thought of something and looked at Holmes in confusion.

"…So, why do you know so much?"

"Because of it."

Holmes shook the book in his hand, then looked at Fujimaru Ritsuka's speechless expression and chuckled:

"But in fact, there seems to be no detailed record of the events of the Dawn of the Little Garden, including the first Demon King and the final trial of mankind. In addition, the relevant information is also very trivial. It is necessary to integrate the clues to obtain complete information."

"Fortunately, Ms. Shiroyasha seems to be a strong person who has been active since the birth of the Little Garden. Therefore, the records about her are relatively detailed, and we can integrate intelligence based on her experience."

"I see."

Fujimaru Ritsuka nodded, not quite understanding.

In short, only someone as smart as Sherlock Holmes could string together all the fragmented information from a large number of books in such a short time, right?

Got it, it’s not my problem, over.

But at this moment, Holmes laughed again:

"Of course, this is just a reasonable guess based on your previous thinking. It is best not to take it as reality without authorization."

"And in my opinion, if we return to the original starting point... Never mind, maybe I said too much. This is just my immature speculation. Before there is more evidence..."

“It can’t be counted!!”

Hearing this familiar riddle man's words, Fujimaru Ritsuka immediately raised his eyebrows and said dissatisfiedly:

"Since the previous judgments were also guesses, then it's okay to make another guess, right?!"

"Otherwise, I will take what you said before seriously, right?"
