122 It's always like this when you get smaller.

Mizumi and Refill talk in the inner circle. In the meantime, Teatania, who seems to have noticed a secret story, calls out.

"Swimey. I don't know what you're doing, but is it time to move on to the next story?

"Ah, oh. Nice to meet you. So, what's next?

"Well, next time..."

When Shuiming misleadingly asks about the lapse, Titania slips away from her gaze and mumbles somewhere hard to say. That attitude made me understand what the next agenda was.

Speaking of which, still? Turn your face to Io Kuzami as they all have signed up. And I didn't say it from anyone, but a sigh of hah tiredness was thrown up.

But despite being shown that attitude, Io Kuzami is laughing sparingly.

"Damn, this beauty is horrible to make others sigh like this..."

…………

Io Kuzami's misperception was also a bitter dialogue, which made the same head heavier at the same time. Where can I conveniently interpret such a thing?

Either way, Shuiming cuts out on the matter.

"... So, what's this?

When he asked, it was still Trinity who answered.

"This happened all of a sudden when I was fighting a demon general like Ilzar, who I just talked to."

"Here's the thing, hey... by the way, what's the foretaste, what's the trigger?

"... I was in the middle of a fight, so I don't know that much."

"Hmm."

Shuiming roars and thinks with a rugged face. But naturally something was not born in his head, and Shuiming saw Io Kuzami. "What do you think?" I turned to the water with my gaze, as I asked for an explanation, but she just had a meaningful grin. I know, but I guess I'm pretending to be unfamiliar. He's not going to talk about anything here more than he said, "Don't tell the other guy."

Then Trinity roars with her arms together.

"After all, another personality has been born or something?

"I wonder"

"I knew we weren't specialized..."

Ha, the sigh that was thrown up, when I did it, I felt heavy. How can I heal - I don't see the prospect of you coming back to me, so I guess all the anxiety solicits. Mizumi can't speak to any other human being in a detour, so there's nothing more to this than to keep in tune.

Fermenia asks the water of such an attitude.

"Lord Swimey. Lord Suimei and Lord Reggie know Lord Io Kuzami of Mizuki, but who the hell is Lord Io Kuzami?

In response to her question, which is filled with unique nouns and seemingly confusing if heard from the side, Refile also rides herself out to stretch out.

"I care too. You seem to know something."

"That's... I don't really want to say it. If you say this, you will decide on the wounds of Rui Shu's past and rub more salt into your mind there."

Even in Mizumino, Fermenia shrugged her face.

"What a cry you make me want to cry..."

"No, you'd actually cry. I think of Mizuki burying her face in a pillow and bumping her legs."

Hearing Shuiming's words, Trinity was able to visualize that figure behind her eyelids, too, meditating on her eyes and nodding yeah.

If we don't tell them what Io Kuzami is, they won't know why, but there's no other way not to explain it.

- Io Kuzami. Something possessed by Ruiki will be named. That's a certain setting she made when she was in middle school. Around that time she had developed troubled diseases specific to that age, such as so-called Sino-2 disease and evil eyes, and had acted a lot stranger than the others, such as "meaningless, meaningless bareback," "old-fashioned talking," and "dressing unusual."

One of them is this separate personality (setting) sealed in her named Io Kuzami, and also one that has haunted the heads of her friends, Shuiming and Trinity.

Perhaps something possessed by her faithfully reproduces Io Kuzami in her memory in order not to be enlightened by Trinity. Doing so prevents them from understanding that they are possessed.

I still can't read what I want to do because I'm possessed by Rui Tree, but whatever.

When one Mizumin was roaring back in time, he noticed, the conversation had shifted about Io Kuzami's battle gesture.

"Just say whatever you want. Don't you have any gratitude for being active in my place and saving everyone?

"Sure that's true..."

Shuiming asks Trinity II, who looks complicated when it is honestly difficult to thank her.

"Really?

"Yeah. Earlier, Mr. Io Kuzami said something against the Demon General that wasn't, right? As soon as Mizuki turned into Mr. Io Kuzami, he shot the magic of mixing multiple attributes towards the Demon General."

To Trinity's explanation, Titania also adds a surprise of the time.

"That was a surprise. I don't know how to do that anymore..."

"Hmm. Would my magic have been powerful?

"Yeah. That's for sure"

Io Kuzami seems satisfied with Trinity's honest sentiments. He has a pleasant look every time he is praised or praised, but the inside shouldn't be that simple.

As Shuiming peeks inside Io Kuzami, he looks at Fermenia wonderfully, as Trinity notices something on his fence.

"Lord Reggie, how are you?

"No, I thought the teacher wouldn't be surprised."

"Huh?"

"No, 'cause you used magic mixed with multiple attributes, right?

Fermenia also returns a strange look on Trinity II, which remains a strange face. I mean, I guess the question Trinity had was that Fermenia didn't react as if to the magic used by Io Kuzami. In this world, the mixture of attributes - the point is that magic and other things with composite elements would be mostly technical, and for Fermenia, who is taught by Mizumi, on the other hand, it is already in the realm that has passed.

Fermenia finally figured it out and answers with one cough pinch.

"... Well, the magic that Lord Reggie and His Highness the Princess have seen will certainly be a rare technique, but on second thought, it's not so flightless."

"What do you mean?

"Earlier you said Lord Reggie mixed multiple attributes, didn't you use magic that combined both properties rather than mixing attributes?

……

Taking the story of Fermenia, Reggie tilts his neck. Perhaps he thinks "neither is the same thing". Sure, it's something similar, but it's actually very different.

"A mixture of attributes can also be said to be… that is, the creation of new concepts. What attributes do you think you can raise from it, for example, if you mix fire and water attributes together? That will naturally be something we do not know. With that in mind, if Lord Reggie's words are correct, it follows that Lord Io Kuzami has created a new attribute.... By the way, may I tell you what spell Lord Io Kuzami was talking about?

"Uh, sure, fire, dirt... ah"

"I see. You're still separated"

At the same time that Trinity notices, Fermenia gives a convincing nod. And

"- Its magic has already been declared from the beginning of the spell, to use two attributes. The magic exercised by this will be 'magic using the power of the two elements', so it will not be the magic of another lineage that mixes the elements. The mixing of attributes, even from the point of view of the elements, will indicate the presence of elements other than the eight, so I'm not saying it's unlikely either, but it will be a story too unlikely"

So once punctuated, Fermenia goes on explaining.

"It is believed that magic is something that is repulsed by the compatibility between the elements, that is, by the relationship between them. But naturally, compatible attributes also exist, and sometimes help each other by compatibility (so on). Essentially, this idea is a way of thinking about the magic of this world, so you have to think about two different attributes, two different magics, with the assumption that they are repulsive. So you should see that you used magic with both elements instead of thinking about creating magic and multiplying attributes with each other."

If we're talking about mixing witchcraft with witchcraft, we can say that basically it doesn't mean that finished witchcraft mixes with each other. It is possible to combine the mere flames created by witchcraft with the mere winds created by witchcraft - that is, phenomena freed from the confinement of the art - but otherwise it rebels so much that it must be said.

Meanwhile, in the magic of this world, most of the magic becomes a use of the power of the elements.

Because of the aid of the elements, it would not be impossible to have said that if they were between the same attributes, they would mix magic with each other, even with different magic.

But on the other hand, it would mean that magic cannot be exercised unless the power of the element intervenes, and naturally cannot be made magic unless the attribute exists as an element. In other words, it is practically impossible to mix attributes with each other to build new ones.

With that in mind, it would be more reasonable to consider the two properties combined than to think of them as a mixture of the two attributes.

With Fermenian explanations, they both look good at it.

"Maybe if they do say so... that's the teacher"

You realize it and you're admiring it inside, to Trinity, who says it with a strange face, but Fermenia shook her neck to the side.

"My story just showed a difference in thinking. But."

"Yes, I think we can use it, too."

With that word, I can see that Trinity understands correctly.

Yes, that's what Fermenia wanted to tell you. Caught in the word "mix," she unraveled what Trinity and the others had thought too hard to accept.

Change your mind. Change the way you look at things. That is the most important thing in mystics. Changing the viewpoint and angle of view makes it possible for what was previously visible to give another look and give an answer from a different approach. That's the same in every field, but what's metaphysical, what's metaphysical. In mystics, where they're primarily academic, wearing meaning and pinpointing answers is an important process to get to the truth.

Trinity asks Fermenia.

"So the teacher also uses it?

"No, I... I certainly wouldn't have to if I wanted to..."

Yes, the magic of the matter, you wouldn't have to if you were her now. Instead, it would be easier said than done. But it's more powerful and efficient to fight with magic than it is to use it. Attributes are never captured by elements either, so they can produce free-flowing results.

Before I explained it, Fermenia had a little trouble answering it because it was actually a missing story between being able to use stronger techniques. When she's making a tannic surface like that, mmm... Io Kuzami sees through its insides or pinches his mouth.

"My magic is powerful, isn't it? Why don't you give it a try?

"No, I'm not questioning the strength of the technique..."

Fermenia is shown a challenging attitude and baffled, not just ridden. On her behalf, says Shuiming.

"Stop it. Now."

"Oh, my God, I'm bored."

Hearing the words of Shuiming's blame, Io Kuzami grieves.

Now she has retreated heavily, but as Io Kuzami's confidence shows, her magic will certainly be powerful. If one assumes that something possessed by Mizuki is a spiritual associated with this world, the connection with the element changes from what a person would have done to a higher level on each stage. And therefore, magic should also become powerful.

Even if Fermenia used the same magic, it does not extend to Io Kuzami.

Liliana appears in the living room as Io Kuzami makes a disgruntled face.

I looked out the door for a moment and looked inside, and when it was over, I quickly put myself in the room and went to the Mizuminos. The ladies can flatter their faces in the most adorable tricks.

But Liliana, who came in, wondered if she would sit in the empty seat, and for some reason turned to Io Kuzami. And as she stares up at Io Kuzami sitting in the chair, Io Kuzami grins.

"Are we done playing with cats? Hmm?"

Io Kuzami gives a look as though he can still play with children, but Liliana doesn't respond. I just tanned my face and turned to Shuiming.

"Awesome, does Mizuki still remain crazy?

"... well, as you can see"

"It's disrespectful that it's funny. I'm always normal at all times, okay?

Io Kuzami frowns at ignoring and saying things, but Liliana remains a rugged face,

"No, I don't think so. Something is not good, but I feel possessed."

It's something that's not right, and it's in itself, whatever. Unlike Trinity and Teatania, Liliana probably finds this state of Io Kuzami to be impeccable. That is because there is a feeling in this world that has been threatened by the power of malice known as the power of darkness. Exactly.

Fu and Io Kuzami looked at each other, and peered into Liliana's face,

"Yes, sir."

- Gyu.

"Ugh!?

As if waiting, Liliana grabbed both Io Kuzami's cheeks.

Human eyes other than Liliana dot the act. What do you do suddenly? No, I grabbed your cheek, so there's only one thing to do - Liliana cuddles Io Kuzami's cheek and pulls it around like it's a piece of clay or something.

"Fu, kihi-mamana fufufu!

"Let Mizuki out. No, come on, get out, get out."

"This is Lily!

Liliana tries to physically kick Io Kuzami's cheek with her cub. Refile, who saw her act like that, rushes into a stop.

I hear Mizuki had a lot on her mind to cheer her up at the time Liliana was blocking in. Right now, Liliana is following Io Kuzami's cheek - and I guess that's why she's trying to kick him out. Because she feels so beneficial, she runs into such a disproportionate act.

Eventually Liliana is ripped off by Refill and leaves Io Kuzami. But she didn't seem to give up yet, poking her bishy index finger at Io Kuzami.

Probably going to give it some kind of shock this time with pointing magic (Astral Shot). Shuiming speaks up for it.

"Liliana, stop that"

"Why? Mizuki, if something is taken and possessed, can you throw it out now?

"No, you probably can't. Stop it."

"Mm...... ok, I got it"

With that word, Liliana lowers her arms softly. On the other hand, Trinity and Titania look like they don't know why.

- Astral Shot, a technique that stretches your mental shell (Astral Body) and strikes the target's mental shell (Astral Body) directly.

This is based on the nature of the mental shell (astral body) associated with the flesh (physical body) at the time of awakening.

The Astral Body, as we call it here, corresponds to the shell of consciousness that wraps the soul - a concept that, in terms of a great deal of mess, alternates consciousness and soul with nothing else. Because it has the 'consciousness' aspect, when you are asleep or losing your mind, you are away from and disappearing from the bond with the flesh, and finger pointing magic (astral shot) does not work for the opponent in this state.

At present, there is no awareness of Mitsuki, and finger magic (astral shot) tends to seem to be ineffective, but in fact, some sort of mental shell (astral body) possessed is tied to the flesh (physical body) of Mitsuki, so it will be affected by finger magic (astral shot).

Liliana's aim was to encourage the awakening of the Spirit of Mizuki by daring someone possessed by Mizuki to perform finger-pointing magic (Astral Shot) and gently pulling it off.

Preliminarily, it is not possible to reproduce the reason for peeling upon awakening - that is, equivalent to a phantom withdrawal. However, the link between the mental shell (astral body) and the flesh (physical body) is not so strong that it is not the soul of the owner that is currently on the superficial layer of consciousness, which leaves room for peeling.

I would say that this amounts to forceful exorcism. From the point of view of what I said, I can say that Liliana is a good place to look, but even if I could kick her out, it would be Sekiyama again because even if I did it at the moment, it would not erase the existence of someone possessed by Rui Shu.

As long as I know the real name at least, I can restrain my behavior, so I can inhibit possession again.

It was Io Kuzami with Liliana on her face, but for some reason she was staring at her with a delightful look.

"It's the girl with the eyelids. Isn't it quite violent and dangerous? Um, I liked the outfit. I'll make you my apprentice."

"Not at all."

"Hmm, right. Don't need a dark baptismal name (Darkness Code Name) to be my disciple.... Well, let's just say I have Dragon King's evil eye and a black messenger, Dragon King's Eye and Black Toddler (Black Lolita)"

"It's a card game..."

"That's a bit of a card game name..."

"Listen to me, you won't..."

Io Kuzami is prepared to be a disciple without hearing Liliana's appeal of rejection as if (?) go solemnly. To such a state of Io Kuzami's self-esteem, the faces around him are half frightened and half troubled. Io from the beginning. If you tell Kuzami it was, it is.

But the mess at the Eight Keys Mansion is not over. Soon after one disturbance ended, another disturbance broke in.

"- Mm?"

Suddenly she felt strange, and Shuiming tied her lips to the letter to make a surprising voice.

"Lord Swimey. What have you done?

"A customer. Besides... hey dude, I came into the house on my own!?

The Eight-Key Mansion in the Empire, like the Eight-Key Mansion in Japan, is witnessed by sensing and surveillance, such as the junction for counter-invasors. Therefore, the information about the intruders and visitors was passed directly to Shuiming, and this time the information came directly into Shuiming's head.

Fermenia asks Shuiming with a surprising look on her face.

"Lord Swimey, who are you?

"Is this not that dangerous woman?!?

"Hey, what -!?

To the abstract words of Shuiming, it was Lefir who shouted. You must have guessed it with a dangerous woman. There's only one person in this world that Mizumi says that way so far.

Liliana, who was next door, frowns when suddenly Refill starts behaving suspiciously.

"What's wrong, sir? Refile."

"I got a shitty situation! Doesn't there somewhere to hide?

"Where to hide, is it? That's about it, it's everywhere. Ginger."

That's what Liliana turned her gaze at was the quilted desk in the corner of the living room. If you're sure of that, you'll be able to hide yourself by now, Lefir. However, if I did it, it would seem narrow and I would feel cramped even if I could hide, but I jumped in until it was a red wind, as Lephire said I would definitely not.

... After a while, Refill's body tucked under his desk. But the tip of the red ponytail is sticking out and shaking every bit.

As I saw it, I hid my head and didn't hide my ass.

I lurk, which is quite incomplete, but nobody points out anything because it was a difficult atmosphere to speak to somewhere.

Then he turns to his face like Titania chewed up a bitter bug on Mizumi.

"Suimei, does the dangerous woman mean Her Royal Highness Princess Graziella?

"Oh. No, Tia didn't like that woman either. Do you want me to pick you up?

When Shuiming asked, he said from the corner of the living room, "Kick him out! Get rid of him!" cries out. But Shuiming asked Titania, and she couldn't disdain the person she asked, but turned her gaze to Titania in trouble.

"It's okay. Not at all, but please don't."

Does that mean you can keep it going? What can I do for you to say you're here? But I still threw out a loud and loud sigh that didn't seem to be meant to be the opposite of her.

Turning his gaze also to Trinity, he nodded too. Let me through, I guess.

Eventually, the living room door opens. It was still the Imperial Empress, Graziella Filas Riseld, who showed up.

No escort, alone. That's because of unshakeable complacency, even though the Eight Keys Mansion is supposed to be an enemy site within the Imperial Capital, but it doesn't seem to be on any alert.

She speaks the most apologetic words to me.

"Sorry, I'm late for a report."

Arrival delayed. That's a mouthful to say it was decided to come.

When the Mizumins are surprised, Graziella either realizes something or turns her gaze to the corner of the living room.

Regardless there was a desk where Refill was hiding, naturally the ponytail was shaking.

Needless to say, Graziella's gaze turned into something more and more dangerous.

"... by the way, what is that?

Refill's ponytail bounces with a pickle to ask. I don't see this one in the way Refill hid, and you don't know what Graziella pointed to and said... he guessed it in the atmosphere.

Didn't enjoy it during the odd time, or she comes out from under the desk like she gave up. And

"Phew... are you lost?"

He also noticed Refill at first. But he's a bad senior, and he's trying to be clear as if nothing had happened, and he's trying to get rid of his earlier faults. I'm sad again that you're cool, but not cool at all.

On the other hand, Graziella, who saw such a refil (small), further distorted her expression,

"... what is this? Someone I know very well."

"Huh? No, uh, I, uh..."

Not yet noticed. Did Refill think so, he tries to delude himself over this period, but Trinity and Titania's mouth were faster.

"This is Mr. Refille."

"It's the Temple of God."

"Ohhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh!!

I guess the two of them didn't have any particular malice. Just told the facts as they were. But that seems to have been fatal to Refill.

After the scream, in the silence with a strange atmosphere, the voice of Refile echoes: "Ugh..."

"The Temple of God? This is it?"

When Graziella asks for confirmation, she snorts together. It's hard to believe when people get smaller, etc., but Graziella doesn't even laugh off because she looks familiar to Refile, or because there's no way that's going to happen.

On the other hand, Lephie had a strange idea.

"Heh, heh! You're gonna do it? If you want to do it, I'll take it and stand, Your Highness Graziella! This time, you can use the power of the Spirit! If you're coming, come!

That's what I said. She's like a boxing shadow, punching out her cubs toward Graziella. The fist speed is quite something that increases the subtlety of everything, but when it comes to Graziella, it still looks dazed. I kept my mouth open.

Eventually, could you swallow a lot, or have you been swallowing it up?

"-P! Wahahahahahaha! What the fuck is this!? Isn't that too pleasant! Eh, smaller, he said it would be smaller!? Whatever it takes. That's against the rules, Lord Shinto! Ha ha ha!

Keep laughing Graziella. It doesn't even go as far as having an exact abdominal collapse - but she folded her body into a lettering, holding her belly and starting to make a lavish laugh.

Speaking of refir being laughed at, I'm already crying about whether remorse makes me do that.

"Damn it. Ooh! Don't laugh! Even I like it and this isn't how it happened! Don't laugh any more! If you're gonna laugh, I'm not gonna forgive you either!

Refile starts to jitter his hands and feet with a crying face and say swordswallowing things sometime. In contrast to her like that, Graziella laughed.

"Yes, no, let's stop now. I owe the Shinto Hall, but this makes me just a weak bully. Weak stuff. Isn't bullying good? Temple of the Divine Prince?"

Graziella pointing a meaningful gaze at the refill by saying things that contain it. Apparently, he gave it to you when there was cause before. If you told me, I didn't get any roots, or after I shuddered regrettably...

"Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa!

Refile burst out of the room with a full shout of remorse.

And up like a chase, Graziella's laugh.

"Wahahahaha!! No, this is too delightful..."

I don't hate words like "do it," so I guess it was purely interesting how Refile reacted. He sits somewhat on his chair and is constantly laughing.

I didn't pinch my mouth to a series of streams. Speaking of the same, I was still roaring with a complicated look while feeling sorry for Lephire.
