Is this where your journey ends, Mr. Hero?

Set in a medieval European-style fantasy world, the human realm inhabited by humans and beastmen is contiguous with the demon realm inhabited by monsters and demons. Skirmishes are a daily occurrence along the borders.
In the midst of this, a child is chosen by the Goddess. That child's name was Guest, the one who would later be known as the Hero.

Having traveled together to defeat the Demon King, Guest and Ix finally reach the Demon King's castle after a long journey.

Standing before the gates of the Demon King's castle, the two who have shared a long journey together stare at the massive, ominous doors and steel their resolve.
Guest nods firmly and places a hand on the door.
Creeeeeeak...
The doors of the castle slowly swing open with an unsettling, grinding sound. The interior is just as dark and malevolent as the exterior.
As soon as Guest steps inside, the doors behind them slam shut, and Ix begins to chuckle.
Heh... Hehehe... Hahahaha!! Finally... finally! Now "I" have finally fulfilled my duty!
While Guest stands dazed by the sudden turn of events, Ix begins to speak volubly.
