Day 1
I don't know what this means, but I'm going to try to write down what happened today. I try to write for the first time in many years, but I remember it unexpectedly.
Today, I was forcibly taken out of prison by that woman and brought to a place called the Kyumei Dan. Even now, there is a shackle around his neck that seals his magical power, but he can't remove it at all. It has been deformed since the clasp was fitted. When I realized that I couldn't take it off, I was stunned, and suddenly I was thrown away and woke up to see Usato's face. The stupid side was interesting.
That's all that happened today.
Tomorrow Rose will be required to train, but it is too easy for me as a demon to do training at the level of a human, so I don't need to worry too much.
Day 2
I thought I was going to die today.
I was mistaken. I thought it was training done by humans, but the premise was different. It was a grueling one, with an ogre named Tong, Alec, and a goblin species named Mil, Gomulle, and Grudo having to run an obviously excessive distance.
Let's just say they're monsters, and they started claiming that they were human. ...... Perhaps they are monsters tamed by Rose.
Poor thing, I don't know that I recognize myself as a human being.
I have more physical abilities than humans, but I'm not that high among the demon tribes. By the time the sun was directly overhead, I was so exhausted that I collapsed. I don't know if it was intentional, but Rose came just in time and slapped my leg and forced me to stand up and run. The pain was gone, but another pain hit me.
Something "...... Usa ... Below, ......," he sounded small, but he didn't care because his eyes were moist for some reason.
This is hell, I want you back in jail.
Day 3
The body does not move
Day 4
She's not human. I'm trying to kick me when I can't move and make me run.
Why is Usato smiling?
I don't care about this kind of thing all the time.
Day 5
Today I ran with the addition of Usato.
But it's funny, even though he's running with the ogres and goblins, Usato doesn't seem to be out of breath at all. I was in so much pain, but isn't Usato also human? ...... Isn't there a creature that can beat me...... I'm convinced, but I realize that healing magic can only be awakened by humans.
Usato is human, but he's not human.
That's how I interpreted it.
Day 6
Speaking of which, when the training begins, the sound of something crashing into it echoes from the depths of the forest. Each time, I could see the birds flying away in unison and swaying as if something had crashed into a large tree in the distance.
Tomorrow, pretend to be tired and take a rest and go see.
I'm good at slacking off.
Day 7
Day 8
Sorry for slacking off.
Day 9
Believe it or not, Rose was training Usato with a fist of extraordinary power. Usato is hit with a fist and is punched in a spinning motion, crashing into the trees and bouncing on the ground several times before finally stopping.
I thought I was dead.
Even an ogre with excellent strength can't beat a person with such a sound. A blow that literally punches the center of the body head-on. But Usato just got up normally and looked pained as he pressed his stomach with the light of healing magic.
I couldn't believe what happened in front of me. I can't keep my consciousness if I don't write about this here. I wonder if this is the Demon Lord's Territory, although the situation that is happening is beyond the scope of the Demon Lord's Territory.
It's going to drive me crazy.
Day 10
For some reason, he seemed to be interested in Usato's training.
At dinner, Rose told him that he could accompany Usato's training tomorrow.
To be honest, I couldn't give a good reply because I had used my strength to keep up with both the goblins and the ogres. But this could be an opportunity.
Ever since he came here reluctantly, he has been able to see Usato's training, which has been unknown for a long time.
For some reason, Usato was vehemently opposed...... He probably doesn't want me to know.
It's a good feeling to see his face like that.
I'm tired today, but I feel like I'm going to sleep better.
「.........」
Close the diary that you brought by mistake, open it again, check the contents, and close it.
...... Apparently I'm still in a dream. ―――I want someone to wake me up, even if it's by force. I ...... from the torture scene called the training scene that is unfolding in front of me.
"That's why I'm telling you to avoid it!
"If you try to dodge, you'll change the trajectory of your fist!
"I don't think I can avoid it after seeing it!"
Usato, who was beaten far backwards by Rose, gets up with a nonchalant face, his expression changing to a terrifying one, and he is snarling at Rose. As someone who has been imprinted with the fear of that woman in the past few days, I can't find it inexplicable that Usato's behavior is still unintelligible even when she triumphantly bites and grabs her face.
"C'mon, I'll do it again......"
"Hey, this is the one I want to bite my tongue, I'm ......."
Both sides return to their predetermined positions, albeit impatiently. Distance, ten meters. Rose squints her eyes as she glares at Usato, who is standing with her legs half a step apart.
It's not the human eye. To try to fight such a monster head-on, the commander of the Third Corps may have been surprisingly strong. There is a relationship between them, but I am confident that I will never be able to win on my own.
While doing some escapism, Rose disappears.
This time it was not visible at all. At first, I managed to see it.
He immediately looked at Usato.
"What?!"
「...... Eh, did you avoid it?"
Usato, who was dodging Rose's fist that moved in an instant. I can't believe it, but I dodged it after seeing Rose's fist? Either way, it's deviating from the human response.
"Well, I did it, and now --"
"Don't let your guard down."
"Goho!?"
"Uh, yes......."
Finally avoiding his fist and giving Usato a joyful expression on his face, a merciless blow was unleashed in the form of a pursuing roundhouse kick to the abdomen. At the same time as the sound of a bagowaa, which should not be hit by a human body, resounds, it ...... that it bounced on the ground about four times in a beautiful parabola while spinning wildly in the air.
It is truly the work of a devil.
"Are you okay, Usato......?"
- A punishment that makes you worry even if it is not in the handle. However, Usato stands up quickly while holding his abdomen. After all, it is swaying and shaking as if there was damage.
For the time being, I'll run up to the neighborhood and see how it's going. However, the moment I got closer, Usato, who looked up with a bang, raised his fists to the sky vigorously even though I was nearby, and screamed.
「...... Hooray! It was avoided!!"
I exclaimed.
"Wow......"
I was surprised because I shouted so suddenly...... I'm surprised that I can't stand it at all.
"Huh...... Well done, now I don't have to hit you anymore. You can go back to your old training."
Usato bowed to Rose, who was smiling with her arms crossed, and she couldn't stop breaking out in a cold sweat, probably because she was looking at the two of them who had looked so bad earlier. Rose went back to the dormitory as it was, probably because she had something to do, but she said that she just had to do the training that Usato instructed her to do.
"No, I never thought I'd change the trajectory of my fist...... After all, Rose is a monster."
"I wonder if you'll notice that you've got one foot in that monster...... too."
"Hmm? Did you say something?"
He let out a heavy sigh at his words and saw Usato's move towards the edge of the training camp. Approaching Usato, who is sitting down and taking out what looks like a jacket from what looks like a bag, he puts it on and stands up.
"Well, I'm going to run modestly today because you're here...... Oh, come to think of it, it's pretty late, but I didn't ask."
"What?"
"Your name"
"It's so late......
"No, because I'll go to bed as soon as I'm done with dinner and other things......
That's true, but it's kind of frustrating that I didn't know my name once in the last ten days ...... didn't seem to be a inconvenience.
"Name, ......?"
Maybe it was because most of them called him the Black Knight, but the only time he had a chance to be called by name was the guy who was the commander of the Second Legion. I should have told Rose here, but as I recall, I don't think he called my name in front of Usato.
Come to think of it, it may be the first time in a long time that I have been prompted by others to say my name.
"Fe...... Ferm. My parents called me Fell."
Usato nodded once at the words that were released with a slight nervousness and .......
"Ferm, I'm going to run now, so get ready."
「......... Hey."
"Hmm?"
"Is that all?"
「......... What?"
...... I don't like the reaction because it's too bland. I really don't like it, and it's really annoying...... For the time being, he kicks Usato's leg with his toes and begins preparatory exercises. Usato kicks with a lot of force, but he doesn't show any signs of pain, so he jumps up lightly on the spot to check the condition of his body. This guy...... Whew.
"What are you going to do?
"Don't be silly, I've learned to keep up with those monsters."
"You can't just keep up."
「...... Huh?"
Usato said with a smile that he was not sure if he was sneering at me, and he started running lightly as if he were bouncing. I'm not so good as to be ridiculed and shut up. Aware that the corners of his mouth naturally contort, he chases after Usato.
"I haven't liked you for a long time...... Whew."
"Hahaha, we don't get along well enough to like each other."
「...... Whew!"
When he picks up speed to overtake Usato, he mutters with a sly smile on his face.
I've been here for the past ten days, and I've found out that it's a monster after all.
「...... Damn it!"
"Oh, it's up to me to set the pace, so--"
"Noisy!"
―――I'll pull you away even if you mean it.
I'll teach the cheeky healing wizard the difference between demons and humans...... Whew.
「...... Hey Usato."
"Yes?"
"What's the matter with that I left to you?"
After the training, when we were all having dinner in the ambulance dormitory, Rose noticed that the seat next to me—Ferm's—was vacant, and asked me about it. At that question, he smiles wryly and rubs his cheeks.
"No, I kind of fell down."
"Did you fall?"
"I let him heal properly and then put him in his room, so he'll be fine."
「......... Huh...... It would be troublesome if he collapsed tomorrow. Bring some food with you later."
She pressed her forehead as if she was stunned, and looked at the seat next to her while muttering, "Is it a tsundere......?"
Ferm--I knew her name, but she was more of a kid than I thought. For some reason, he has a kind of rivalry with me. ...... Today he was so desperate to pull me away that he collapsed and fainted.
"Hahaha, that young lady has fallen!
"I was just running normally."
"You're usually crazy, at least Temeje isn't human."
"Wow, you're still more human than the Leader!!"
Can you stay silent when you are treated like a monster? He stands up vigorously while glaring at Gomul, who just said rude words.
In a moment, something crossed the side of my face and a laceration appeared on my cheek, I looked behind me and saw a wooden spoon stuck in the wall, and when I looked forward, I saw Rose glaring at me with a smile on her face. He silently makes eye contact with Gomul and sits quietly.
...... Is a smile something that frightens people so much? Or rather, was the wooden spoon so sharp that it stuck into the wall?
"From what I've seen for ten days, I don't think he has much physical strength for a demon race, but I don't have a problem with that, how will you train him in the future?"
Alec turned to Rose and said as he brought the food to his mouth with an undeservedly well-behaved hand.
"A little girl who is immersed in such magical performance is moderately frustrated and quiet, you know, Tongs."
「...... Excuse me."
Tongs look away from Rose in disgust. Tongs seem to be quite an old stock among the lifeguards, so there must have been a lot of them, I guess.
"Tongs, did you do anything to the Leader?"
"No, it has nothing to do with Temeje."
When I asked, I was rejected by the view. I saw it as an embarrassing past that I didn't want to reveal too much. I'll ask Alec or someone else later and I'll be done with it. Secretly making up his mind, he stuffs the last piece of bread into his mouth, washes it down with soup, and takes a breather with a glass of water.
「...... Whew."
"Usato"
"Yes, what is this time?"
Rose called out to me again, so I turned to face her.
Now I wonder what it will be, about the new training? No...... As expected, there is no more penance than that...... Nock.
"Go to the castle early tomorrow morning, and I hear that Master Lloyd has something to say to you and the two braves."
"What? I mean, it'......."
"Oh...... It seems that this country has finally decided on the future policy."
So, the day when I will issue a letter is not far off...... I'm glad I finished training with Rose before that. My endurance and reflexes have grown a lot, and I've gotten to the point where I don't die unless I'm attacked by too many guys.
"You'd better take Amako with you, right?"
"Oh."
Do you visit Sarlat's shop first thing in the morning and pick up Amako?
As I put away the dishes at hand, I think about the future. I'm curious about the magical cities of neighboring countries, but what I need to pay more attention to are the dangerous zones, villages, settlements, and steep mountains that I can't avoid.
"I need to know about the terrain......
Tomorrow, I'll ask Mr. Welsey to show me a map to the Beastman Country. There are also amako, so you don't have to worry about the road, but it doesn't hurt to know about it.
"Then I'll take you to the castle tomorrow, thank you for the feast."
Lower the dishes and leave the dining room.
I have to get up early tomorrow, so let's go to bed early. But first, I have to feed Ferm, who is still sleeping, dinner.
「...... Do you want to wake me up?"
There should be no problem with the body. In the first place, if you use healing magic to heal illness, fatigue, and wounds, it basically works unless it is conceptual such as curses or mental fatigue. I've only been learning it for a short time, so I can only cure it, but Rose said at one point, "You're the same type of healing magic as me."
...... So, at present, Ferm is just coasting. I'm not the kind of devil who forces a fainting person to wake up and run like Rose, so I put her to bed, but considering her tomorrow, it's better to wake her up.
Stand in front of the room where you put her to bed and knock. The room she lives in now used to be used as a storeroom, and it used to be used by Uluru and Olga. The day after Ferm arrived, I cleaned it up enough to live in it for the time being, but I wondered if it was messy......
"Are you still sleeping...... Huh......"
There is no response, so I wonder if it hasn't happened yet. With a loud sigh, he opens the door and sees a silver-haired girl sitting on a wooden table lit by candlelight in the corner of a room that has no sense of life, writing something.
「......」
It looks like I'm desperately trying to write something, but if I'm awake, I wish I could have come down sooner. I don't know if she has noticed me entering the room yet, but I approach her and talk to her, who is occasionally growling and shaking her head.
"Hey, Fermu."
"Wow!?"
With a wry smile at the former black knight who had fallen out of his chair with a thumping onomatopoeia, he picked up the notebook that had fallen at his feet and looked at the cover.
It's my diary. I don't know you're still using it...... You might be a little happy.
"Are you okay?"
"Whose fault do you think it is...... Huh?"
I tried to reach out my hand, but it was brushed off brilliantly, and I got up on my own. Then, as if he had found the notebook in my hand, his mouth twitched.
"You're using this, thank you."
"Give it back!"
No, I gave it to you, but it's originally mine, right? It's quite honest to write a diary in a dutiful way. ...... He may not have been a bad kid to begin with. If you treat them properly, they are children of the same age who can be found anywhere.
"You haven't looked inside, and if you do, I'll kill you."
Except that they come to kill you easily, that is. Either way, it's impossible for her to do that because most of her magic power is sealed, and it's impossible for compatibility. The fact that I don't lose even when I'm on the run is a big reason why I'm able to come out big.
If you don't eat, you'll vomit tomorrow because you're hungry."
「...... Don't tell me you're going to throw up. Eat properly."
What he didn't like, he changed his expression to a Buddhist face and turned away and walked out of the room. At that time, I saw that the diary was carefully in my pocket, and I laughed a little, but .......
"Well, it seems that life here is fulfilling, and that's the best part."
They seem to accept tongs from outside the same appearance, and they don't seem to have to worry about fights anymore. As for the training, I was able to endure it, and she is physically strong, unlike Olga. Even if you have a slight habit of slacking off, Rose will correct it with force.
Now it's up to Kazuki and Inugami-senpai to ...... to forgive her. Even though it was too much, there was no way that he could forgive the other person who was about to be killed once. Or rather...
"How long will you be in my room?
"Yes Yes"
I'm worried about how that senior Inugami will react......
