423 Chapter 375

I managed to neutralize Kayla, who had run aground by forcing her to consume the power of the Demon King.

It was really nice to be able to do something about it, because I had quite a lot of strength on top of my troublesome enemies who kept recovering.

"Everybody okay?"

I'm totally fine!

"So was I. It was quite fun."

I don't know what to say about Roone... she's innocent.

I should have made her feel scared, but I should have seen her emotional strength coming from living in the monstrous forest.

"So, for Nea..."

"Yeah, I'm totally fine, too. Of course, right? I'm used to it."

Keira and Roone were hitting my cheeks with their wings in an invisible position, apparently not wanting to throw up a soft voice in front of them.

This may require a lot of blood later on, so we need to be prepared.

Is Nagi-san hurt?

"Hmm, don't worry about it." Is that why you're doing this... unusual move and it's okay? "

I was worried about being wrapped up in an oblate.

Nagi-san wasn't injured either... but Koga.

"...... Koga, I'll never forget you"

"No, I'm not dead." Don't kill me on your own. "

Turn around the Korga that was coming to us, and then move forward.

"Don't worry. I'll properly tell Senri-sama what you think."

Don't fabricate my thoughts.

I knew he wouldn't get hurt that much, so I knew he was fine.

But I tried to use healing magic.

I didn't realize it, but it was true that Roone had set it on fire.

"Well, now that you've finally grown up... do you have anything to ask this demon?"

"... that's right."

There's something I'd like to ask you first.

Looking sideways at Aul and the others who were still stuck, she looked down at Kayla, who was tied up.

"Who did the magic to Aul-san?"

"... ha, I don't know. Aren't you one of us?"

"You don't even know your face? Isn't that the twin Dark Wizard you're leading, too?"

Kayla snorts like a fool at my question. [M]

"That's why I'm not interested." I didn't find that useless piece, I just handed it over on my own. "

He treated unidentified people as minions...?

Anything would be too appropriate.

Either way, I don't think we'll be able to get any more information on this.

However, even now that a fragment of the Demon King's power was still embedded in Kayla, I was worried that it would not be outraged again.

"Do you want to keep tied up with Koga's counterpart?"

"Why don't you leave it to Vina?" If you're talking about demons, they're the ones who know best. "

".... Indeed."

I'm a little worried, but I think it would be best to ask Vina for her opinion after escaping the ruins first.

Maybe she knows how to disable Kayla.

Rabbit, Shia!

!

When I saw Shea's voice on her shoulder, I could see the membrane of light that covered her disappear as it flashed.

Did you solve it by disabling Kayla......? No, more than that......

The membrane of light vanishes and falls to the ground.

Um, for now, it's healing magic.

"Shia! Are you all right!! Shia!!"

"...... nh"

As Roone tries to call Shia by her name, she raises her eyelids.

Are you conscious again?

……

Looking around and seeing what was happening to her, she smiled at me with relief.

For some reason, I was uncomfortable with that defenselessness.

"Rabbit, you're here..."

"Oh, are you okay? Is there anything abnormal about your body?"

A black robe wrapped around the neck.

Black hair and beautiful black eyes that are less red than before.

You can see that the correct look is the same as before, and there is nothing strange about it.

There was no doubt that the person in front of me was Shia herself... but a strange feeling was coming around.

"I'm fine now, Rabbit, thank you so much."

Shea wakes up in a chill as she tries to hold her right hand wrapped in a basket.

"Can I get up?"

"... yeah, I'll stand up."

Shea!

Roone, who was smiling on her shoulder, called out desperately.

Here, she finally noticed the presence of Roone with a surprised expression.

"Ahh! The cat is talking!!"

"It's not the cat, it's me, Roone!" I-I don't know what this looks like! "

I jumped off my shoulder happily and returned to my child, who was the child I was supposed to be.

Seeing such a runes, Shia tilted her neck slightly and pointed her finger at her forehead.

……

"...... Shia?"

She smiled softly, releasing her finger from her forehead as she looked up anxiously.

"It was Roone! I'm surprised! You're here from the forest!?"

"! Fu, you're safe!? You're trapped in such a white place!!"

"Oh, don't worry about it. I'm still confused... but the rabbits are here to help me."

Whether she was relieved or not, Shia seemed to be more stable than before.

Before, I had the impression that I was frightened by the memory of Lady Scorpion.

Usato-san, Shia-san's condition. Isn't it a little weird? "

"... do you think so too?"

I nodded to Keira, who spoke in a small voice in my ear.

She must have seen Shia the last time.

In other words, you can't ignore her words.

"I don't know about the time I met Shia before. I think it would be too cheerful if we met in a place like this.”

"...... I don't want to be suspicious, but maybe I should be vigilant."

I was curious, but I was able to hold on to the power of the Demon King, and I was able to protect Shia.

The overall investigation is still far away, but it would be time to return.

Take her to Korga and Nagi, who are watching over Kayla, and aim for Nagi.

"Nice to meet you... am I right? I'm Kannagi. Do you know who I am?"

Nagi spoke to Shia subtly.

One of the reasons she was called to see Nagi is because of Shia, who has memories of Lisago, so listen to the interaction between the two.

"Ah, it's nice to meet you. Um, the Beastman I saw in the memory of the ladybird, right?"

"... yes, that's right. I knew I had his memories. I heard you were upset before, but are you okay now?"

“Yeah, I can't hear you right now, so don't worry.”

What happened to you when you came to this ruin?

I think it's a good thing you don't get confused by your memories, but after all, the mystery remains a mystery.

Thinking alone, Nagi-san, who was suddenly facing Shia, suddenly looked back toward us as he touched the handle of the sword.

"Ahh!"

At the same time, it reacts to the healing sensation that has been spreading from earlier.

Immediately, when I glanced at the space where Kayla was restrained, I saw him escaping from the restraint of the Doppelgänger.

"Ha ha ha!!"

"Ah, Kayla!!"

"I slipped through the restraint magic... no, I was disturbed by the technique!?"

Kayla's sorcery I heard about beforehand!?

Nagi-san, who was sensed by the prediction magic, immediately thrust his sword at Kayla's body, but even so, Kayla didn't stop.

"Usato! Kayla's aim is Shia!!"

Healing Fist!!

Reading the movement with the healing sensing, and blowing off Kayla's body with a quick healing fist ─ ─, he forced himself to regenerate his body and approached Shea at an unusual speed.

Even if the demon king's magic power is still there, it's still a fearsome obsession...!

"Don't touch Shia!"

"Get out of my way, kid!!"

"Ahh!?"

Kayla was beaten to the ground by Kayla, who hurriedly caught hold of Roone and looked towards Shia, but Kayla, standing next to her, was thrusting her sharp claws around her neck.

Hostage!? No, he's...!

"Naah, even if I disappear here, if I can get rid of Temae here... that's fine...!!"

Shea!!

……

You can't hear your voice out of fear, Shea, but you can't move while you're still lying down.

Well, he's not going to hold Shia hostage.

Before her life is in danger because of my revenge--- someone is coming!?

"Rabbit, this is..."

Nagi-san also had a confused expression on his face that he sensed with his prediction magic.

Of course, it's not our side that's approaching without a sound behind Kayla.

He was supposed to be stuck in this hall from the time he was fighting.

"Hahaha! At least worship the figure that sinks into Temei's despair..."

And it came to pass, as he was about to put his fingernails upon Shia, that some one pierced the breast of Kaila.

"... what is it?"

The one who grabbed the heart with a fragment of the power of the demon king --- The twin sister (...) of the Dark Wizard I had brought so far had a trance smile with her firmly intented eyes.

Ahh, I've always wanted to do this

She pulled her arm from Kayla to extract the power of the demon king, and after throwing Kayla's body in front of us, she smiled at the power of the demon king in her hand.

"N, ah, no, why..."

"Why... it's just that you pretended to be dead from the beginning." Oh, but it's true that he was dead, so he pretended to be a puppet? Fuhihi, no matter what, it's fine anyway. "

She looks at us next--no, at me.

You don't seem very surprised, do you?

I thought you might have a thin ego.

I see. I didn't have a body because of you.

I'm not very surprised that the twin sister is moving.

What I can't figure out is that she attacked Kayla, who was supposed to be the same force.

Heat, play, don't play!?

Kayla falls to the ground spitting blood and suffers from a stir while holding down her holed chest.

I cast on him a healing magic to strengthen the system.

I couldn't extract any information from him, and I didn't mean to kill him.

"It won't heal...!?"

”Don't touch me!!”

"Ugh!"

Even though I suffered, my hands were washed out... but Kayla can't be healed by system strengthening anymore...

Kayla's twin sister watched with pleasure as she gradually disappeared.

"The demon that is integrated with the impurity of the power of the demon king will no longer be immortal." I really did what I said. "

"Whose is that, exactly?"

"...... Kuku"

With a smile on Nagi's face, she offered a fragment of the Demon King's power to Shia, who had been freed from Kayla.

"Yes, please, Master Sama."

!?

A crystal containing the power of the demon king.

On the other hand, Shia grabbed the crystal normally without leaping and spoke to her friend with the same expression and tone of voice.

Thank you, Esther. It's been tough, isn't it?

"No, no, it's heaven compared to life." The journey to this point was hell in a different sense... well, it was an interesting hell. "

"Interesting hell...? Hmm, well, I'll ask you later." Besides, is it okay for oneesan anymore? "

Her sister, called Esta, is still in the place where Aul and the others are falling.

Looking at her immobile, Esta looks somewhat bored.

"I don't know if I can..." The soulless Garan-dong habit will keep an eye on me forever. It's about time I got depressed. "

Did you notice our gaze? Shea looked at us and unfortunately shrugged her shoulders.

"Ahh, I wanted to talk more. The demons left behind by the times are really troublesome. Don't you agree, Rabbit?"

"It's not the Shia we know."

There is also the possibility that Shia has been performing.

But I wondered if that was possible. [M]

There is no basis for anything.

She was truly frightened by the memory of Mr. Lady Scorpion, and she asked for help.

"Who are you?"

"...... Fufu"

She laughed.

With a smile still overlapping with Shia, she approached me defenselessly.

Distance between the eyes and the tip of the nose.

Standing as far as she could reach, she looked up into my eyes---

"Come on, who am I?"

--We whispered pleasantly.
