Countless golden motes flew from Haimo's hand, scattering to every corner of the world.
-Inscriptions of falna.
They passed through distance, through walls, through darkness.
They landed precisely on the back of every [Cursed Child].
And engraved a unique mark.
-The mark of the [Haimo Familia].
Though it was only a simple symbol, it represented a god's protection.
From that moment on.
They were no longer monsters abandoned by the world.
They were a god's familia.
After finally finishing all of this.
"It's time for me to go, too."
Haimo turned around and looked at the four behind him.
Seitenshi, Kisara Tendo, Enju Aihara, and Kohina Hiruko, who was crouching on a statue, staring at him curiously with a blood-dripping short blade still in her hand.
These were the first core members he would bring back to Orario this time.

A former ruler, a vengeful sword demon, a little girl with potential, and a born killing machine.
"Are you ready?"
Haimo asked with a smile.
"We're ready!"

Even Kohina Hiruko jumped down from the statue and dusted off her hands, excitement written all over her face.
"Lord Haimo, is there anything fun in that world?"
"Are there lots of people I can cut up?"

The corner of Haimo's mouth twitched.
This girl really was a battle maniac.

"Ow!"
Kohina Hiruko clutched her head and looked at Haimo pitifully.
"All right, it really is time to go."
Then.
Haimo swept his hand.
A golden portal appeared out
