In this chapter, Rakan recounts the events of the last 21 years. He says that the demon god confederations are dumb, and that they would all be mercenaries, bounty hunters, and so forth. He tells Rakan that he will be fine on his own. Rakan asks Rakan what is wrong, and Rakan replies that he is the wandering mercenary swordman. He then tells him that Rakan is the one who first said that the war was going to be a bird-brained adventure. He is sorry to bother Rakan while he is eating, and he says he will come to him to ten must die if he does not come to Rakan. When Rakan says that Eishun is still alive, he replies that the red-headed wizard has no weaknesses. He also says that he has a special rep for being an invincible swordsman, like the kid in the south. He adds that the kid south is invincible, too. They will settle lost, he says, and they will come back any time for a rematch
