Sorry for the delay.

 

 

Luxvis, a neighboring country of the Kingdom of Ringle.

 

The enormous structure, which could be mistaken for a castle, is itself a learning hall for learning magic, and there is the supreme authority of Luxvis, the headmaster or head of the school in my world. The children who visit the place learn the magic of each lineage from the basic lineage of non-lineage magic, and sometimes compete and hone their fighting skills.

 

According to Aluk, in addition to magic, you can learn skills such as swordsmanship, martial arts, etc.

According to Welsey, wizards who graduate with excellent grades generally handle powerful magic.

According to Amako, it is not uncommon for people to be discriminated against based on the superiority or inferiority of their innate magic.

 

There aren't many types of magic if you divide them by lineage. When separating the superiority and inferiority of wizards of the same lineage, innate magical power, sense, and skill are required. They can be compensated for with effort, but no matter how hard you try, you can't change your natural lineage.

 

「...... It seems to be a place......

 

It was the sixth night after leaving the Lingle Kingdom.

In front of the burning firewood, I was thinking about my destination, Luxvis. Everyone except the knight who was in charge of keeping watch was already resting. I really need to sleep for tomorrow, but I can't sleep when I think of Luxvis, who is scheduled to arrive tomorrow.

 

"Alc, don't overdo it."

"No, I've just been given a good rest."

 

Mr. Alc sits in front of me and laughs refreshingly. He noticed me getting out of the carriage without sleeping, and he talked to me about how I cared.

I knew he was a very polite and kind person. Maybe it's because of his profession as a knight, but he's precise and easy to talk to. In the world where he used to be, he seems to be the chairman of the committee.

 

"Mr. Alc is ......."

"Yes?"

"You were in Luxvis, weren't you?"

 

It was something I heard from a senior who said something incomprehensible such as "main character" and "ranobe", but when I heard it, Mr. Alc had a slight grimace.

Was it a story I shouldn't have heard too much?

 

「...... yes."

 

"Excuse me, did I tell you something I shouldn't have asked?"

 

"No, that's not the case."

 

Alc shook his hand in a panicked manner, leaned the sword at his waist to the side, and looked at me again as if he was going to shoot me.

 

"Perhaps...... We'll find out soon, so let me tell you right now."

 

"Tomorrow will you know?"

 

"Yes, I've heard from Lord Amako that Luxvis is discriminated against by lineage magic, right?"

「...... Oh well."

 

On the one hand, I think it's a terrible story, but on the other hand, I think it's someone else's problem.

Kazuki and Inugami-senpai felt somewhat resentful, but for me, it was someone else's problem.

 

"Discrimination based on lineage magic is also terrible...... Equally egregious is another, subliminarianism."

 

Subhuman discrimination? Isn't that something that's being done not only in Luxvis, but also in other countries? At least that's what I'm hearing.

 

"People who come to Luxvis have a variety of goals and work hard in their studies...... To become a knight, to become wealthy...... If I tell you everything I know, it will be too long, so I won't go into it, but the important thing is that there are people who visit Luxvis, who are prepared for persecution due to differences in race.

 

"Do you know you're going to be in danger?"

 

"Yes, it's worth it."

 

In my world, Luxvis is an elite school with a high deviation value.

But from what I've heard, I don't think it's worth it. Why bother training in magic, it's hell. I can't imagine going through a physical training where there's no intellectual element to being punched and punched, getting up and being blown away, and kicking when you think you've dodged.

It's like going to school to be beaten.

 

"It's like I don't know."

 

"Well, well, I don't understand."

 

"Even if there is danger, they still have things to do, and although the trafficking and persecution of subhumans is ostensibly prohibited in Luxvis, the students who come from all over the continent come from all over the continent...... There will always be those who are not so interested in sub-human discrimination to those who hate it excessively."

 

With a faint bitter smile on his face, Mr. Alc tosses the branches of a dead tree that is piled up beside him into the firewood. His expression, illuminated by the bonfire that had burned and brightened even brighter, looked somewhat sad.

 

"It's the best place to learn magic, but it's the worst place for a very few people, and to be honest, I didn't like it."

 

「...... I'm sorry."

 

"Oh, no, I didn't speak ill of Lord Usato! I wanted to help you, so I thought carefully and accepted the assignment of escort."

 

Even so, it was none other than me who asked him to bring me back to Luxvis, which is the worst place that Mr. Alc said. I'm very sorry.

 

"By the way, what kind of perception does Lord Usato have about Ajin?"

"Recognition?

 

Different from others? It's too appropriate, but the only subhumans I've met and talked to are Amako the beastman and Ferm the demon tribe. I ...... look at those two.

 

"Nothing special."

 

I don't think I'm that scared or terrifying, maybe because I've been poisoned a lot, or maybe it's because there's a demon leader who is much more monstrous than Namaji. In fact, the members of the rescue team were more monsters than the subhumans, and they were treated as monsters by Ferm.

But I don't know what happened, but Mr. Alc rolled his eyes slightly at my words, and the next moment he burst out laughing out loud.

 

"Hahahahaha!"

 

"Uh, yes......."

 

I suppress the voice that leaked out of my mouth because I can't stand it. I don't think I've said anything funny, I haven't said anything beautiful or derogatory like this. So why is Mr. Alc bursting out laughing?

 

"Did you say that there is nothing in particular, it is a statement that is unique to Lord Usato."

 

"It's like me, ......."

 

"Yes, it's like you, and I guess that's why Amako-sama can be by your side in peace...... To you who treat subhumans as human beings."

 

In other words, the difference in perception between me and the people of this world was so great that I was laughed at. As expected, I've read too many fantasy novels and can't be afraid of the existence of subhumans.

 

In the first place, the consciousness of those of us who were brought from another world and the consciousness of the people living in this world is quite different. In a world where everything I see seems foreign, magic and subhumans all seem to be on the same standard. But for the people of this world, magic is something that is natural to be there, and subhumans are scary and terrifying.

 

"Just because I'm like myself doesn't mean I'm that good."

 

"Usato-sama is a good man, you just don't realize it."

 

"Don't lift it, it's going to get you in shape, okay?"

 

"Hahaha, you should be in a bit of a mood."

 

Alc's expression softened considerably after the previous exchange, and he smiled cheerfully. He doesn't have the stiff and polite impression he had at the beginning, and now he has a rather unconventional frankness.

 

Usato's mood has improved a little.

 

Something like a ticker flowed in my head. No, it's just my mind.

 

"Hmm?"

 

"What's wrong?"

 

As I stared blankly into the dark plains, listening to the crackling of leaves and branches, Mr. Alc, who was sitting with a bonfire in between, tilted his head and looked to my right rear.

I look back, wondering about Mr. Alc, who is watching the place where the carriage is parked in the right rear.

 

"It looks like there's another person who can't sleep."

 

When I left the carriage, the door that I had closed was thrown open, and there was a girl who was looking out from behind the door. When the girl turned around and made eye contact with me, she walked up to me.

 

"Can't you sleep?"

 

"It's Usato."

 

Amako, the girl sitting next to me, stared at the bonfire as I did. Her glossy blonde hair can be seen reflecting in the faint light of the bonfire from up close.

But why at such a late hour of the night? Anyway, Amako should have slept soundly next to her senpai.

 

「...... I woke up because the dog was hugging me."

 

"Hahaha, that's it...... It's hard for Amako-dono, too."

 

"Not at all."

 

Perhaps he knows that he had a bad feeling towards his senior, and he smiles at Amako, who has become a little Buddha-faced. ...... Later, I'll let Senpai and Amako sleep separately.

 

"What were you talking about?"

 

"It's about tomorrow."

 

As expected, I shouldn't talk about discrimination against subhumans, so I'll explain lightly while omitting it. Well, I think it was conveyed roughly because it was only explained really briefly.

 

"Do you remember Usato that I have been to Luxvis?"

 

"Hmm? I remember. If I remember correctly?????? You hid it from the beastmen who go there, didn't you?"

 

"Is that so?"

 

Aluk turned his eyes to Amako with a slight mixture of surprise and she nodded firmly.

 

"I don't know if he's still there...... Can I go see Usato's errands when I'm done?"

 

"Me too?"

 

「...... yes."

 

I'm ...... too. What if you're scared of something? No, I don't think it's going to come out more than Rose, but it's still bad for the heart. But hey, he's a beastman who lives in Luxvis, which isn't flattering for subhumans, so he's reasonably strong and can use special magic like Amako.

Well, first of all, you have to start without permission.

 

"Is it okay for me to go, Mr. Alc?"

 

"I think it's all right, but after we give you the letter, we will have plenty of time, albeit temporarily, until a decision is made. Maybe I'll be a little overwhelmed, but if that's okay with me, ......."

 

"I can wait at all."

 

"Then there will be no problem."

 

Perhaps because she might be able to meet an old friend, she looks sideways at her as she happily holds her knees. Come to think of it, this child had been living away from his family for a long time. It must have been hell before I came to Mr. Sarlat.

When I was about the same age as Amako, I was a sissy boy who would cry so much that I wouldn't go on trips.

She smiles wryly when she compares her childhood self to Amako next to her.

 

"You're getting sleepy......

 

Exchanging words with Mr. Alc made me feel sleepy, probably because I was in a somewhat better mood. I was wondering if I could stay up all night, but if I got sleepy, I would go to bed, and when I was about to stand up, Mr. Alc, who was on the other side, called out to stop me.

 

"Lord Usato, look next to you."

"Next door?"

 

I didn't notice it, probably because I was lost in thought, but Amako, who was next to me, was holding her knees and making a small sigh of sleep. She was asleep and grabbed the hem of my dress before I knew it, so I guess Alc noticed it and stopped it, probably so as not to wake her.

 

"I guess I'm most at ease by your side."

"That's it...... Well, I'm going to sleep here. Mr. Alc?"

"I'll be changing the guard in a little while...... Are you going to sleep while sitting?"

"I'm used to it, so it's okay."

 

When I was in the forest, I didn't lie down so that I could escape at any time even if I was attacked by a monster, and I became so messed up. ...... It's not that I sleep well, though. For the time being, lay down Amako, who is sleeping while sitting, and put on the clothes that were folded nearby.

 

"Well, I'll see you tomorrow."

"This is it."

 

After exchanging words with Mr. Alc, I closed my eyes while thinking about the rather silly things that I hadn't slept outside in a long time. Perhaps I was so tired that I didn't realize it, but my consciousness gradually faded more easily than I expected.

 

●

 

"--kun"

 

Someone is calling my name.

I wonder who is calling it. In a slight sleep, I open my eyes. I don't know how long he was lying down, but I'm sure he slept while sitting down with Amako, who had fallen asleep in front of the bonfire. And my head is wrapped in something as soft as a pillow.

 

"Hey, Usato-kun."

 

"Hmm."

 

I look at people who look at me with a head that doesn't work.

Or rather, I was able to recognize someone immediately even with a non-working head.

 

"Huh...... What's that...... Are you Inugami-senpai?"

 

"Hey, I wish you had a more innocent reaction to the knee pillow!"

 

He gets up from the lap of his senior, who can see his soul, and looks out. It's getting pretty bright, apparently I overslept. When I look inside the carriage, it seems that everyone except Amako, who slept at the same time as me, is already awake, and greets me when I wake up.

 

"Was it Kazuki who carried it?"

 

"Hmm? Ah, but I don't need a thank you. It was a little heavy, but it didn't take much effort."

 

Even so, I wonder if there is a difference between oversleeping and resting your body in the company of people you trust. I lived in the tacit understanding that oversleeping was not allowed when I was sleeping in the emergency team, so it may have been the first time in a long time that I slept and woke up with such a loose feeling.

 

"Rather than that, Usato, please do something about your senpai."

 

"Inugami-senpai?"

 

Kazuki, who smiles wryly, turns his attention to his senior.

Sure enough, the senior was stroking Amako's head, which was sleeping on the opposite side of me, as if she was unfaithful.

 

"It's totally rude, isn't it, that you don't get excited about being pillowed on your knees by a beautiful girl?"

 

"Because I can see my soul, and I feel like it's too bad to be a beautiful girl ...... myself."

 

No, to be honest, she's an exceptional beautiful girl.

If you were to ask me if I was happy to be pillowed on my knees, I would say out loud that I was happy. But I'm not the kind of fish that hangs on a visible hook either.

 

"More than that, Amako told me that she couldn't sleep because her senior was hugging her."

 

"Ugh, I can't help it because it's cute!"

 

"You don't even make excuses......... Well, please don't be so unfaithful. It's not that I wasn't happy, was it? Maybe."

 

I cleared my throat as if I had made her feel better with my words, and took her hand away from Amako.

 

"You're not honest at all, Usato-kun."

 

"Usato is surprisingly twisted."

 

"They're too honest, I'm the only one who is normal."

 

When I said that, I was told, "That's not true." Hmmm, these two people don't have normal sensibilities.

 

"I can't help but feel a little uncomfortable that Usato-sama is normal."

 

"...... to Mr. Welsey."

 

Mr. Welsey, who had been reading the letter until a moment ago, looked up with a wry smile on his face and said. If Amako was awake now, she'd be the one who'd take advantage of it and tell her that it's not normal.

This time, I sat down in my chair so that I could be unfaithful, and I practiced manipulating the concentration of magic that Rose had told me to practice.

 

"It's not normal."

 

"No, it's not that hard, is it?"

 

Mr. Wealthy still says so. She says this every time I do this training. If you ask me, it is not something that people who have only a few months of learning magic do. But it's not difficult.

Anyone can do it easily if they know how to do it. When she said that, Welsey .......

 

"That's why I'm telling you, it's a dangerous training, even if it's easy, and if you don't do it right, the magic that has become uncontrollable will explode and your hands will fall apart. It's a good thing because he's a healing wizard ....... I'm going to do that after I've been able to handle magic better, and I'm going to--"

 

As it is, he feels the smile twitch on Mr. Wealthy, who spits out words in rapid succession as if he were preaching, and manipulates the concentration of magical power.

 

The original pale green color has changed to a slightly lighter green than Olga's, and it has repeatedly returned to its original state. To be honest, I don't really feel it because I don't know the visible results, but according to Mr. Wealthy, he seems to be doing quite well.

 

"I wonder if I can do it too, ......."

 

"Seniors are a little sloppy, so it's better ...... stop."

 

"As long as Usato-kun is there, there will be no problem, right?"

 

No, no, I'm saying it as a matter of course, but I'm doing my best on my own, and frankly, I can't recover if my seniors learn it easily.

Also, I genuinely don't want my seniors to do anything dangerous as much as possible. I didn't react that much, probably because I'm used to it, but when my magic exploded and my hand was cut off, it was moderately painful.

I'm not sure if I can stand my seniors who were high school girls.

 

"It's no good, Suzune-sama!!"

 

"It's okay, Welsey, Kazuki thinks so too, doesn't he?"

 

"Hmm...... I'm not out of interest, but if Usato is stopping it, I might as well stop it."

 

I think Kazuki has too much trust in me...... It's not a bad thing, though. I wish we could have gotten along sooner in the original world. I'm really sorry that I think every day that the rear charge should explode.

 

"Mmm, I don't want to bother you too much, Usato-kun."

 

I can't say that I'm already in a lot of trouble.

- Exhale a light sigh to the senior who has become quiet even though it is late.

...... Come to think of it, how long have I been sleeping? I heard that you will arrive in Luxvis by the end of ...... day.

 

"Speaking of which, how long after that?"

 

"To Luxvis?...... Well, from the progress of the ...... It looks like we'll get there just as the sun is going up."

 

If that's the case, maybe an hour later? I don't know because there are no clocks in this world.

There's a student town, a subhuman relationship, lineage magic, and Amako's acquaintances...... In a sense, if I had to pick one thing that bothered me the most, it would be...

 

"The Healing Wizard of Luxvis"

 

That's all there is to it.

 

I tried to open the space between the lines.

This should make it a little easier to read.

 

 

It was pointed out in the comment column, so I wrote an introduction to the characters in the first chapter.
