442 Chapter 391

For the first time in two months, the Kingdom of the Lingles hasn't changed as much as I thought, and they've welcomed us.

The townscape of the Kingdom of the Lingles remains unchanged... but for Keira, who arrived for the first time today, everything looks fresh.

Wow, this is the Kingdom of Lingles! There are lots of people! "

"Isn't that a good thing?"

Yes!

Alk and the others broke up with the Knights Guard and were on their way to the castle where Lord Lloyd was waiting for them. Keira was playing a tone of voice as she looked around at the townscape of the Lingle Kingdom.

I smile at Keira, who is happy.

I want to go back to the lifeguard group as soon as I arrive, but I need to go to the castle first and report to Lloyd.

Well then, I'm on my way to the lifebuoy dormitory first.

I look back at Nagi-san's voice.

"Can you take Bullins with you?"

"Never mind. Can I bullish you, too?"

Grrrrrrrrrrr!

Bullins are at their limit, too.

I've been yawning for a while now, and I think I'll fall asleep if I'm left alone.

Well then, I'll follow Kannagi as well.

Amako too?

I want to see the new life-saving troupe dormitory.

Speaking of which, neither Nagi nor Amako knew about the new rescue camp.

Then, Amako's gaze turned to the inside of the cloak I was wearing.

“What about Keira? Would you like to come with me?"

"No, Keira will follow me to the castle."

"...... you mean Rose's men?"

I nodded to Amako who understood.

There were six coffins in Keira's cloak.

I have to get you all home, so I want you to come to Keira.

Also, I have to tell you that the Demon King deposited this child.

Well then, I'm heading to the lifeguard group first.

I'll tell Suzune and the others that you're home.

Yeah.

While breaking up with the Amakos on the spot, we continue along the main street leading to the castle.

Maybe we can head to the castle, but before we do, there's a clinic down the street, so let's send Mr. Uluru.

"I feel like I've been away for a very, very long time."

It's been two months, right?

The clinic hasn't changed as usual, but I feel nostalgic for having been open for two months.

Usuat-san, where are we?

"It's a clinic. It's where I have a healing wizard, and it's where you and your closest healing wizard, Nack, are training."

"This is......"

"First of all, let's make sure oniichan's safe...!!"

The first thing you do when you leave is to make sure that Olga is safe... "

Uluru immediately tried to open the clinic door... but before that, the door was opened and a dark-haired boy came out from the back.

"Ah, are you a customer!" Now that Olga is being treated, wait a bit---Usato-san!!? "

"I'm home, Nack. You look fine."

Mr. Uluru looks me in the eye and knocks it round.

Your voice is sharp, and above all, you seem to be used to dealing with it.

At a glance, I could see that Nack was growing mentally.

"Ladies and gentlemen! Welcome back!!"

I'm home, Nack.

"I'm relieved you're doing so well."

Uluru stroked Knuck's head.

Besides, while smiling bitterly at him, I decided to introduce Keira here.

I'll introduce you lightly in the meantime.

"Huh? What are you talking about?"

"There's a child in the life-saving corps." Keira, come on out. "

I lightly open the cloak and expose the inside so that it looks like a knack.

The inside of the cloak creates a ripple like the surface of the water, and Keira comes out from it.

"Nice to meet you, Keira."

"Well, a girl came out of the cloak!?"

Keira was surprised to see Knuck's upper body.

With such a smile on his face, Keira continued to utter words.

"I'm Mr. Usato's best disciple."

What about you?

Keira sank into the cloak again.

She was stunned by the sudden words, but she immediately returned to me.

Kira?

”Phew... I see, that's what you mean”

Huh, Knuck?

I was puzzled by Nack, who had become a real face after a deep breath.

“I know you're selling your fight for now.”

"Now...?"

Is there a problem with my youngest disciple or something like that...?

Neither Nack nor Keira seemed to be able to hear it with a shadowy smile.

●

After that, Olga was still under medical treatment and couldn't get her hands off, so she broke up with Nack and Uluru on the spot, and I decided to enter the castle with Nea and Keira.

Since I'm the only one who can make the first report, Keira will wait with Nea in a separate room, and I will pass through the hall prepared by Lloyd and make the report.

"Thank you for the last two months, Usato."

Yes, I was able to successfully complete my tenure in the Demon King Realm.

Lloyd would like to say a few words to me as I kneel down in the castle hall.

Apart from Lloyd, there were Sergio-sama and Wersey-sama, but there was no one else, and they seemed to be paying for it.

"Rasat, it looks like you've brought a demon girl....?"

That girl, Keira, is a child dealing with dark magic who was asked by the demon king to deposit it with the lifeguard group.

"... there's something about the Demon King depositing it, isn't there?"

Yes.

I nodded to Lady Lloyd's words.

I was told to leave it with the Lifesaver, but Keira was a demon.

I couldn't let you live on your own without Lloyd's permission.

“Keira's dark magic is special, it has excellent flight abilities and the ability to hold objects almost indefinitely.”

"What..."

Rare magical ability to fly and store objects.

Not only Lloyd, but also Wellness seemed surprised by his ability to break the rules.

Besides, the devil turned a blind eye, and before Keira could be harmed, the demon king thought of depositing it with the lifeguard group.

It stores objects indefinitely... it's an incredible magic again.

Wessey understood the rarity of Keira's magic.

There may be limits, but at least I remember storing everything when I was working with you.

However, if you solve the magic, you will spit out what you have stored, so it won't be permanently stored, but... it doesn't change the magic.

"The reason I brought you to this castle... is because the six bodies of the commander's men who recovered them from the demon have been transported to her."

"Was that so...?" Well done on getting them back and bringing them back.... "

Lady Lloyd must have been upset that the demons were manipulating the six bodies.

That's why I'm glad I got back here... but we need to get Aul out of the Devil's hands.

The opponent was the opponent, so it seemed to break my bones a lot.

It seems that Farga-sama wants to talk to you about your return.

"Farga-sama... yes, I understand"

"Well, then, Welsey, please."

Got it.

Ms. Wersey nodded to Lloyd's words and shed her magic over the brand-new fountain in the Great Hall.

Then, the magic applied to the fountain activated, and the mirror was shaped to flood the surface of the water, and the blue dragon, Farga-sama, was reflected there.

You're back in the Kingdom of Lingle.

Yes, Master Farga.

I heard from the Demon King what happened in the Demon King Realm.... it looks like it's going to be a problem. "

It's not about the devil, it's about Shia.

And guess why you're paying people in the hall.

"I'm sorry I lost my hand..."

First, I apologize for Shia taking my hand.

Don't worry about it. You are more important and rarer than a handkerchief. "

"Isn't there something strange to say...?"

It's rare.

Farga-sama's eyes narrowed slightly at the tip of the mirror, and uttered words that lightly exhaled.

"Rasat, your power is not shady even if you lose my armour. It is not a matter of pessimism, but of pride. ---That's because it's nothing more than proof that a person has made progress without relying on the power of the Divine Dragon."

"... yes"

I nodded to Lord Farga's compliments.

Can't you rely on the power of the Divine Dragon?

On the contrary, it can be said that seeking the power of the Divine Dragon on its own will attract bad cause and effect.

"...... that's what shea is now?"

There was no response from Master Farga.

I thought maybe Farga-sama was feeling vague, so I decided to proceed.

“Does Master Farga have any idea who's inside Shia?”

The demon possessed by Shea Garmio's flesh. Another personality transformed by the memory of the sea lion. Something else to manipulate sorcery... I can guess, but I'm not sure. ”

It was almost the same as what the Demon King had said.

Maybe the Demon King and Falgar didn't know who they were, or maybe someone in Shia was pretty good at walking around.

“I'm wondering if there's any clue in Rio to Carm, Shia's hometown. I heard from Shia that she's found the body of Lady Scorpion.”

"S-something like the body of a hero before you...!?"

Looking at Master Farga while listening to Mr. Wersey's astonished voice, his eyes were twitching like he was trying to make a plan.

"There is a danger of encountering the demon, so I would like to go myself if possible..."

"Umm, Master Farga." Is it okay to send rabbits to Calm for no reason to Rio? "

If there's any, there's some.

Is there something?

If there's anything I can think of, it's about the rumors in Rio about you and me...

You're a man who knows his name and has a deep relationship with a brave man.

"... do you mean that it is difficult for Rio to hide his identity and move to a heavily faithful Karam?"

'Yeah. It would be too dangerous to let anyone else go. If the half-baked are influenced by the devil, they may even come back as puppets. "

Is it difficult because I have a deep relationship with brave people?

If I find out that I'm moving alone, Calm and Rio will be surrounded by people, and perhaps even more demons will piss me off or call me in.

A hall surrounded by silence.

Perhaps Lloyd came up with something in it, and he turned his face to the crystal that was projected on Farga.

"Then, how about accompanying Usat to the Festival of Champions?"

”Hmmm... I see, that was my hand.”

"Yu shishu shishu shishu...?"

Welsie tells me to tilt my neck.

The Festival of Champions is a festival held in Calm and Rio.

Is it like a festival?

"It's like a festival that invites people with the title of brave people from different countries to come to the country, holds a feast of celebration, and offers faith and gratitude to the brave people."

"Are you saying that the Festival of Champions will be held soon...?"

“It was supposed to have been done already, but there was a war going on, and the fact that countries were calming down forewarned the festival.”

"I see..."

It wasn't the case that I was doing a festival or something because I was helping Calm and Rio.

"But of course, that means that the brave will participate in it..."

It's called accompanying the brave... Senpai and Kazuki?

“Either one of them makes me sick. We just have to confirm their intentions."

"I'm sorry that I swung around because of our convenience..."

Originally, we decided not to participate in the Lingle Kingdom, but to find a clue to a girl with the power of a brave girl.

"Thank you."

“That's fine. Perhaps it's okay to leave Shia Garmio and the Devil alone.”

I feel strong trust from Lloyd.

I had to squeeze my head so that I could live up to that trust. [M]

●

Mr. Lloyd is busy too, so we have only made important reports and finished making observations.

As for me, I wanted to tell you about the training of troops in the Demon King Realm and about Senri in the Nirvana Kingdom, but as it was true that there was too much information, I decided to submit it in the report again.

At that time, I was given a place to temporarily store the coffins of Rose's men.

That's all of it.

"Oh, good job, Keira."

A room in the castle.

In this room, which was temporarily prepared for later burial according to official procedures, I put down six coffins and took a breath while checking them again.

Now, it's time to go home.

I see. We need to show Keira to the dormitory.

Keira will be tired from coming to an unfamiliar place, so we need to give her a break.

Let's nod to the voice of Nea on the shoulder and get out of the room---,

Oh, it looks like you're back.

……!?

She turned to the back of the door in a sudden voice from behind.

There was my master and boss, Rose.

She stretches her spine in amazement at her appearance.

"Commander, why are you here..."

"I heard from Master Lloyd." You brought them back, didn't you? "

She slowly walked into the room and lightly touched the coffin.

With a short silence in her eyes, she immediately looked at me.

"Well done, Rabbit."

"... but still, Aul-san..."

That being said, I am very sorry for the fact that there is not enough people here.

If it was true, I would have had Mr. Aul and Mr. Rose meet and talk.

Perhaps such an idea appeared on his face, and Rose sighed in amazement ——— and suddenly slammed her fist in my head like a hammer.

"Huh!?"

“I think too much of you, you idiot. If you meddle too much, you'll have to do the opposite."

"No, do you want to tell me that much...?"

Hah

Rose strokes my head violently as she drops her shoulders, then shifts her gaze to Keira.

She looked at Keira interestingly as she grabbed the hem of my regimental suit and pulled it down, her hips turning to match her gaze.

"It's Rose, the leader of the lifeguard corps." Are you the little girl that the demon king deposited with us? "

"Yes, yes..."

At Rose, who showed signs like a carnivorous beast, Keira hardened like a stone statue while desperately trying not to look away.

After a short silence of about ten seconds, Rose sighed lightly as she woke up.

"You really don't care who brings you here, man."

Isn't it similar to a master everywhere?

"You're the one who can't keep your mouth shut. Absolutely."

I don't think he can say much about me when he looks at me or the strong faces.

"This one will be in the custody of the lifeguard group." I'm free not to participate in the training, but what do you do? "

"Keira, you don't have to force yourself to participate---"

I'll do it.

Answer immediately!? No, I think it's good to think about it more and then give an answer.

Keira looks up at me with determination and strong will.

"I've been looking at Mr. Usato's back for a long time." I want to go that way, too. "

"... I see."

Unlike the words, Keira now coincided with Knuck's appearance in Lukvis.

If you let me tell you that, I won't stop. [M]

When I get you back to your quarters, let me show you around.

Nea, can you do me a favor?

Fine.

"Then will Keira also participate in the training..."

Let Rose take care of everything.

Like Nack, Keira is still a child, so I'll have to train her to grow up.

You can go home first.

Where's the leader?

"I'm here a little bit."

Roger that.

I think there are a lot of things I think about.

Understanding Rose's feelings, I left the room with Keira.

"... I was an amazing person"

"That's my master."

“I think I know. It looked just like Mr. Usato."

What does that mean...?

Aura?

In the meantime, I'll have Keira dive into my cloak before I leave the castle... no, I'll just fly up to the rescue camp.

Fortunately, it's not so popular around here, and it won't get that much attention.

Alright, let's fly home.

No, is that okay? all over the city. "

"These people are trained every day, so I won't make a fuss like a rabbit has flown in the sky."

What do you mean you're being trained...!?

With that, I bent down lightly in front of the castle gate ——— and leaped into the sky.

I climbed to a position where I could look down on the city itself, and stayed. I flew there as the lifeguard flew down looking in a direction.

Is that where the lifeguards are!!

"It's a good place with lots of nature. There are a lot of colleagues, and there are people you know.”

Let's get off at the training ground, where it's easy to land.

... hmm? There's someone at the training ground.

Hey, Suzune, what are you doing?

"Ufufu, when Rabbit returns, I think I'll have to greet you as well...!! I'll surprise Rabbit in New Miracle's Strongest Special Mode due to the uniquely learned deterioration of the system...!!"

Senpai and Ferm?

We can just talk about Keira, and we'll land near them.

... nh? What? I feel like the shadow of Felm shaking in the distance...

What? Ferm, your magic is working, what's wrong with you?

---!!? No, I'm doing everything---

Instantly, the magical power of dark magic overflowing from Ferm's feet like a geyser was falling towards me in a straight line.

"Usato!? Why is the magic of Felm coming!?"

What are you going to do about it?! Mr. Usato!?

Keela and Nea panicked, but I was calm because I recognized this phenomenon.

"Ah, this is just like Keira."

"You're too calm!?"

In the meantime, I thrust out my palm as I fell towards my seniors and accepted Ferm's dark magic.

In an instant, the dark magic covers my regimental clothes, arms, and legs and changes into an assimilated state.

"Just right!!"

While checking the limbs wrapped in black dark magic, it also bursts into the ground with magic power.

The reverse jet suppressed the impact and slowed down all at once. I landed in front of Ferm and Senpai like a fist on the ground.

"Nnnnh!!"

Huh?

That's a perfect landing...!

Completely attenuated, landing neatly without even smoke, I looked back at the two of them with satisfaction and raised my hand gently to show them.

"Just now!!"

"Ah, ah, welcome back!!... it's not like that!! Wasabi-kun? I wonder what you look like, Mr. Usato!?"

"Ughhh, finally my magic has moved all over...!!"

Of course, he seemed confused.

To reach Ferm, I was standing on the ground with my hands covering my face.

"You've finally separated from humans by incorporating two dark magic... so the air travel that you've been doing with one hand has become more complicated..."

It would have been perfect if Korga had been here...!! This is a joke, but first, unlock Felm's magic and grab the edge of Keira's dark magic cape while returning it to her.

Keira, you can leave if you want.

Yes.

First of all, I open the cloak I grabbed with my right hand in order to put an end to this confusion.

Along with that, Keira bursts out from the inside of the cloak and greets her.

"It's been a long time!! Suzune-san, Felm-san!?"

Yeah!

"I'll take care of you today at the lifeguard group!!"

Yeah!

... you just made a mess of it?

No, by the way, I didn't know that Keira could be put in the Dark Magic Cloak, and I probably didn't hear about it being deposited with the Lifeguard Corps.

"Wussat-kun, this!" How could I come before I gave you a surprise... and how could you come from the sky and want to see me so much!? "

That's right.

"Eh, ah, heh, really...?"

Do not return to the iodine in an instant.

It seems like the weakness of the conversation is being polished while I haven't seen it for a while...

"Hey, Rabbit. I'm glad you're back, but why is Keira here?"

In response to Ferm's words, which returned from the confusion, I will first explain how Keira was deposited with the life-saving corps.

"... if that's the case, I'll forgive you. It's not like you brought me here."

"Tomorrow I will train too!!"

"Rusat, do you really think you can be forgiven?"

Hey, it's completely different from what I said five seconds ago.

The foreword was withdrawn in an instant.

"... wait, I forgot something important, Ferm."

For the time being, I'm going to ask you something.

Felm looked back at the senior who had been called in vain in a serial atmosphere.

“Keira is a girl, which means she's going to live in a rescue camp. That means one under the roof. You know what that means."

I see. You don't have to talk to me anymore.

Kuuhn ~

... somehow, when I saw this exchange, I thought I was back in the Kingdom of Lingle.

Even though I enjoyed living in the Demon King Realm, I still thought that my daily life here might suit me best.
