Studying abroad in another country is part of Luxvis' classes in order to determine the future career path.

While students were given various options such as knighthood and research positions in each kingdom, Amako and Usato were a big reason why I decided to go to the Ringle Kingdom.

Perhaps...... No, I chose the Ringle Kingdom, after meeting Usato, the most shocking person in my life so far and in the future, and hearing Amako's words that she was accepted by the people of the Ringle Kingdom, but I didn't think that Halfa was there either.

 

I can't help it, but as a beastman, I don't have many options.

He had decided that if he couldn't make it to the Ringle Kingdom, he would return to his hometown and use the knowledge he had learned in Luxvis.

However, when my hope came true and I went to study abroad in the Ringle Kingdom, it was just as Amako told me...... No, it was a good place to be.

They don't look at me with prejudice as a beastman, and above all, the atmosphere of the city was so calm that I couldn't believe that they were at war not long ago.

 

"We're going to go around the city, so please follow us so that Mr./Ms. don't leave us."

"'Yes!!'"

 

We all respond to the voice of Mr./Ms. Aluk, a knight of the Lingle Kingdom who is in charge of us, as international students, and head towards the city from the lodgings near the outside of the castle.

 

"But it was more than I had heard."

"What?"

 

Was he meant to talk to himself?

I asked Halfa who muttered softly, and he looked at me with a wry smile.

 

"The level of training of the knights of the Ringle Kingdom, I didn't mean to be naïve...... I was surprised by the gentle national wind, but it was more severe than I had imagined."

"Oh, that's for sure, ......."

 

On the surface, the atmosphere was calm and almost foolish, but the knights of the Ringle Kingdom were amazing.

If you think about it, it is a knight order made up of selected people who have been fighting on the front lines of the war against the Demon King's army for years.

 

"The fact that there are so many survivors is one of the reasons for the high level of training."

「! I'm sorry."

"I'm sorry."

 

When Halfa and I apologize to the voice of Mr./Ms. Alc walking in the lead, he shakes his hand lightly.

 

"No, no, it's okay, I'll be careful in the castle, but it's okay to relax my shoulders now."

"Yes......

"The Ringle Kingdom has fought many battles with the Demon Lord's army, but thanks to the efforts of the Life Rescue Team, the casualties have been kept to a minimum, so the Life Rescue Team is a benefactor to us knights."

"I see......

 

The fact that there are many people who come home alive means that they have gained that much experience in battle.

 

"Are you a lifeguard, Lord Aluk, may I ask you a question?"

"I don't mind."

"Is there a visit to the rescue team on your schedule?"

 

Oh, I was a little curious about that, too.

Not only Halfa but also the others seemed to be interested, and they turned their somewhat expectant glances to Mr./Ms..

 

「「「……」」」

 

In response to Halfa's question, all the knights who were acting with Mr./Ms. Aluk, who was walking in the lead, fell silent at once.

Halfa broke out in a cold sweat wondering if he had said something wrong with his silence, but soon Alc Mr./Ms. and the others gathered at the front and began to consult in a small voice.

 

"Hey, Alc, what are you going to do......!!"

"Is it okay to show the rescue team training to a young ......!?"

「…… I'll show you."

「「!!?」」

"You're going to see them all over the city in the first place, if you're a member of the Knights...... It's a road that everybody takes."

 

…… I heard it with the hearing of the beastman.

What, you're doing so much that the Knights are hesitant to show ......?

 

"Okay, let's go to the rescue team after the patrol."

 

Everyone except me was smiling and happy with Mr./Ms. Alc.

Eh, I'm getting scared to look at it.

Is there anything more going on in the rescue team than the training that Usato was nagging?

 

●

 

"This is the main street, and it is a busy place for people, so be careful not to bump into it."

 

The first thing I came to was the main street of the city.

It is a straight road to the castle, which is a symbol of the Lingle Kingdom, and it is a place where the people of Taku Mr./Ms. are.

The people of the city looked at us curiously as students from Luxvis, but there was no disgust in it, they simply seemed to be curious about the unfamiliar group.

 

"It's the same feeling here as Luxvis."

"Certainly, it's more crowded here."

 

Well, Luxvis is a place with a lot of students.

However, just by looking at a place where people like this are crowded, you can immediately tell that it is a good place.

 

"Oh, I think it's about time."

"It's already that time."

"Leave the road for the time being."

 

"What, what?"

 

He is confused by the people of the Ringle Kingdom, who suddenly start to wander down the road with a look of familiarity.

To the bewildered us, Mr./Ms. looks ahead of the road and smiles.

 

"Oh, that's just right, everyone, let's go to the end, Mr./Ms.."

"What's coming?"

 

Mr./Ms. Alc smiled at my words and pointed lightly at the end of the road.

If you look there, you can see a group of people running at a furious pace ——— the middle of a beautifully empty road.

 

"I sympathize with Usato!! I'm going to have a fistfight with my sister after this!!"

"Urusei, I asked you to do it!!"

"Oh, are you really insane? Has your brain finally been eroded into your muscles!?"

"I've made it all the way here!!"

"I'm going to pull it from myself!!"

"It's a shame to apply for a hand in a bare face."

"I'm going to beat you up first!!"

 

It was Usato?...... It was the sight of Usato running with men with terrifying appearances like monsters.

Just like in the case of Luxvis, Usato's back is covered with a bulllin, and it passes in front of him with ridiculous momentum and speed.

It reminded me of the scene in Luxvis where Nak is chased by Usato, who is carrying Bullin on his back, but it was even more shocking now.

 

"This is one of the specialties of the Ringle Kingdom."

"What kind of specialty is it!?"

 

Wasn't it worse than when it was Luqvis!?

At first glance, it looked like a monster was blowing up in the city!

- Halfa is stiff at the scene!

 

"Oh, the next one is here."

"What's next?!"

 

If you look behind you, you will see another group of people coming after a short pause with Usato.

This time, it seems that about five women are coming, not men.

 

"Keira, if it gets too hard, tell Sister Suzune Mr./Ms. and Sister Kannagi Mr./Ms.."

"Oh, sister Mr./Ms.......?"

"It's noisy."

"Why are you so energetic......

"Oh, it's okay! I can run!!"

 

…… No, isn't it funny?

Apparently, there are only two humans, two demons and one beastman.

 

"Mmmmm!!"

 

Suzune, who ran towards me, noticed me and smiled widely.

 

"Yaho Kiriha, see you later!!"

 

I thought I was going to stop, but I didn't stop and just went on.

The moment I passed, the beast woman who was running in the lead looked at me with a sideways glance...... It looked exactly like an amako.

Who is that person?

I feel like it was somewhat similar to the kannagi-sama I saw in books and statues......

 

"No way, Amako's mother Mr./Ms.......?"

 

…… Possibly.

I heard that she was getting better, and she looked like she had grown up.

 

"Shall we all Mr./Ms. now, shall we move on?"

"'Yes!!'"

 

Nodding at the sound of Mr./Ms.'s voice, we moved on to where Usat and the others had run.

It seems that there is still a lot to see for those who are patrolling.

 

●

 

We took the time to go around the city and look around, and as Mr./Ms. Alc told us at the beginning, we were on our way to see the rescue team.

 

"I asked for permission to visit while I was patrolling, and he was happy to accept, but please don't disturb Mr./Ms. of the rescue team."

 

Mr./Ms. Alc, who walks in the lead with a familiar back figure, suddenly stops and looks back at us.

His expression was somewhat serious.

 

"It's a place where more than Lord Usat used to do in Luqvis is done on a daily basis...... Don't panic."

「「「……」」」

 

I don't know what it is, but I was very anxious.

We can see that Mr./Ms.'s words are not a joke or an exaggeration, so everyone is silent as they continue on the path that leads to the rescue team.

Compared to when I was in the city, the atmosphere is quite quiet, but .......

 

"Hmm?"

"What's wrong?"

"No, I ...... a voice that sounds like an argument."

 

As I walked down the road, I heard voices.

The wooded landscape opens up and we find a building that appears to be a dormitory for the rescue team and two children doing something like training in front of it.

 

"Isn't that Nak?"

"It's been a long time."

 

A healing wizard boy who left Luxvis to join the rescue team.

I felt nostalgic for the sight of Nak who sent him off with a smile when he left Luxvis———、

 

"Kee-laa!! Why are you involved me every time?!"

 

I tried to ——— it, but I was stunned by the angry voice that jumped out of my knack.

The demon girl who was doing sit-ups near him doing push-ups smiled at him.

 

"Eh, Nak-kun, you always look like you've trained......"

"Forgiveness...... Forgive ......!!"

"That's how you tried to hand me over to Mr./Ms. because I couldn't move, didn't you? It's this line that I don't forgive???

"Is this the revenge !!?"

 

I don't know about the demon girl, but Nak...... You've been around for a long time without ...... looking.

 

「…… Are you growing up? …… You've grown, haven't you?"

"Nak, you've changed......

 

It's really supposed to be like Usato.......

We can't help but be stunned by the unusual combination of Nak, who doesn't stop doing push-ups even after dirty swearing, and a demon girl who doesn't stop doing sit-ups.

 

"yes? Mr./Ms. Kiriha!? Mr./Ms. Halfa!?"

 

Apparently they noticed us.

Surprised by the large number of people, Nak stood up and ran to me.

 

"It's been a long time! I had heard that he was coming from Mr./Ms. Usato, but I didn't expect him to come here...... Oh, I'm sorry Mr./Ms. Alc! You're at work, aren't you?!"

"No, it's not a problem because we let them see how the rescue team is doing this time."

 

It seems that Usato has heard the reason why we are here.

It seemed that it was the first time that Nak had heard about the visit, so he seemed surprised, but he soon showed a happy expression.

 

"It's nice to see you two after a long time."

"Me too, did you stretch out before you looked at me for a moment?"

 

I'll try to raise my hand to the position of Nak's head...... yes, I feel like I'm growing a little taller.

 

"It's different, not only in the way he dresses, but also in the flow of magic he seems to be a different person than before."

"Oh, is that so?"

 

He looks like his body has become a little thicker, but he doesn't seem to have changed much other than his back.

But if Halfa, who has a good eye, is like that, then he can clearly see the growth.

…… Well, if you look at the sudden change just now, you can understand that it is growing in a different direction.

 

"I'm relieved that I seem to be doing well with the rescue team."

"Yes, I'm squeezed every day and it's like hell, but I'm doing well!!"

"Is it really working......

 

Nak says this with a smile, and as expected, Halfa can't hide his confusion.

…… Somehow, since I came here, I've only known Halfa and I.

As expected, I feel sorry for the students who are coming with me, so let's talk about it later.

 

"Nak, I'll see you later———"

 

Just as we were about to say that we were going to make time to talk ———, we heard a "dogoo!!" from a different direction than the way we came. There was a sound like something had crashed.

We were buzzing at the roar, but Nak and the other girl turned in the direction of the sound at the same time and looked at each other.

 

"Eh, has this started yet?"

"That's what it looks like......!!"

 

What happened?

In the meantime, I heard another "Goo!!" Yara, "Bagoo!!" I hear a roar.

If you look at Mr./Ms. Aluk, he is holding his head with a face that seems to have guessed something.

 

"My quota is over, so let's go!!"

"Huh!? It's cunning to fly with magic!!"

 

The demon girl, who wore something like a black shadow like a cloak from her feet, floated in the air and flew away in the direction of the sound.

He looked at Nak in amazement at a girl who used magic he had never seen before——— and for some reason, he was doing push-ups on the spot with a devilish expression on his face.

 

「…… What are you doing?"

"I have to go see it until the quota is over......!! Damn it, that little girl! I'm just happy to do this, and I'm doing it silently......!!"

"Nak, you're going to have a great face......

 

Just as I was thinking that I was really dyed, Mr./Ms. called out to Nak, who had just finished his push-ups.

 

"Mr. Nak, may I ask you what kind of training is going on over there?"

"Well, Mr./Ms. Usato and Rose Mr./Ms. are working together, it's not something you can see very often, so you might want to go see ......!"

 

What is Rose...... Of Usato's master?

Is it ...... that the same healing wizards are making such a roaring sound together?

 

「…… Maybe it's better to get them used to it now. …… Nak-kun, can I ask you to escort me to the place where Usato-sama and Rose-sama are training?"

"It doesn't matter! Then let's go quickly!!"

 

Mr./Ms.'s disturbing murmur was heard again.

There are so many terrible things going on on a daily basis that people are told to get used to it now, and I ...... that the rescue team is a really bad organization.

 

"It's pretty close."

 

Under Nak's guidance, he trotts slightly to an open area away from the dormitory ——— a space that seems to be a training ground.

Immediately, a shocking sight appeared in our field of vision.

 

"Ooohhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh

"Nugu!?"

 

Bagoo!! The sight of Usato, who is kicked off his torso with a terrible sound, is blown away in an arc from one end of the training ground to the other with so much power.

That alone was a big deal, but then it spun around and slammed into the ground, and for some reason, it bounced on the ground in a strange way, crashing into one of the trees outside the training ground without slowing down——— breaking the trees and disappearing with a destructive sound to a position where it could not be seen.

 

「「「……」」」

 

Eh, dead? You're going to die, aren't you?

Could it be that I'm being shown a vision right now?

At the very least, I doubt my sanity when I see him being kicked from one end of the training ground to the other, bouncing off the ground, and then disappearing out of sight while crashing his whole body into a tree.

 

"Heh, did you start to prevent this?"

 

A green-haired woman who kicked a person who appeared to be Usato.

As I had heard before, Usato's master, who was dressed like a real carnivore, looked at Usato, who had disappeared into the forest with a somewhat satisfied smile.

 

"Hey, hey, people are ...... now."

"It's a doll, isn't it? …… In fact, I hope so.'

"Maybe it's us who are insane?"

 

I was a little relieved that the other students felt almost the same way as me.

I checked next to him to see what he thought of this shocking sight, and he was patting his chest with relief.

 

"I'm glad I made it in time......"

"Isn't it too late ......?"

"What?"

"What?"

 

Wait, has common sense been rewritten in the last six months?

As Nak looked up at him with pure and innocent eyes, he was reminded of the horror of the environment of the rescue team, and with the sound of something breaking from the direction of the forest where Usato had disappeared——— a crushed tree came out of the middle of the tree.

 

"Not yet!"

 

Usato's master lightly flicked it away with his fist, and at the same time, Usato, who was completely twitchy, jumped out of the forest in a ridiculous manner and went to attack.

 

「…… Halfa"

「…… What is it?"

"This place is amazing."

「…… yes."

 

A shocking sight that makes you agree with it.

I know that this is the daily life of the rescue team, but it may take a little more time to accept it as a reality.

 

"Did you make it in time?"

 

Then, in the twilight, another woman who seems to be a member of the rescue team arrives.

He's a fox beastman like Amako, and he's a beautiful person who looks like he's just an adult.

 

"Yes!! Keira's anchikusho was a mess though!!"

"Oh, you're still on good terms ......, and you've come at a great time."

 

- I was called out by a woman who looked like Amako who saw me, and I involuntarily shrunk.

…… The closer you look, the more it looks like an amako.

It looks very young...... I'm nervous, but I'll ask you a question.

 

"Is that Kanoko Mr./Ms.?"

「…… What? What now?"

"Mr./Ms.'s mother's"

 

When she hears that, she begins to tremble with a twitching smile.

…… Did you do it?

Just as he was about to explain his suspicious behavior to her, another roar rang out from the training grounds.

When I looked at it——— I saw the figure of Usato, who was soaring in the sky and falling toward the forest, even more vigorous than before.

It's hard here, but it's even harder over there!
