Both Sophia and Marnie seem to have sensed this as well.

「So, was there any information connected to the Evil Spirit?」
「Hmm, in taverns in Atropolis, as well as in Accuros, we heard that the number of monsters were increasing, but the entire continent has been like a monster nest from the start, so the citizens were aware of this matter as well.」
「Many of the monsters in this continent are stronger than those that reside in the continent we live in.」

This also holds true for the monsters around the base.
For example, comparing the goblins in this continent to the one we live in, the ones here were higher leveled and the percentage of superior species were also higher.

「Even newbie adventurers could defeat the goblins on our continent, but the ones here might be impossible for them.」
「Investigating the state of the habitats of monsters in the entire continent would be too difficult, as such, we have no choice but to gather information at the city-states.」
「It’s just as Sophia says.
Is the increase of monsters true? We don’t know if that was the influence of the Evil Spirit.」

The young boy from her home country who disappeared with Pope Warvaal and the Imperial Princess.
Akane wants to do something for that classmate.

Coming to this country, seeing the Succubus clan, Devil clan, and Oni tribe, I vaguely understood what the Divine Empire Sydnia did to Yamato.
They were probably trying to make Mazoku, which possessed high physical and magic power.
Yamato had fallen victim to Divine Empire Sydnia’s mad experiments to make an artificial Majin[1].
However, rather than a Majin, he was a Chimera monster.
This was likely the effect of the mistaken perceptions of the people in our continent who do not know the Demon Continent and lack of understanding of the Mazoku.
Sydnia’s mad researchers must have had the perception of the Mazoku being people descended from monsters.
That was a big mistake.
The Devil Clan and Lesser Demons have absolutely no connection.
The Oni Tribe and Ogres naturally have absolutely no blood relations.
The misguided perception that the Mazoku are a race descended from monsters had given birth to that chimera.

「Takumi-sama, our data is too lacking either way.
Wouldn’t it be best to gather information in the remaining countries?」
「……right? Understanding the others’ situation would be better, so let’s do that.」

We decided to continue investigating the countries in the continent.
The members would be the same.
As for Laeva and the others, I asked them to hunt down monsters in the name of investigating those we don’t know.
