A coalition of the four kingdoms of Lingur, Samaria, Nirvarna, and Kamherio.

At the head of the knights and soldiers dressed in the armor of each country was the captain of each unit, and all of them there were quietly burning with fighting spirit for battle.

Infantry units equipped with weapons, mounted troops on horseback, and troops with bows were divided into two groups, and Kazuki, the brave men, looked beyond the plains.

 

"It's the same scene as the first time."

"Everything is different from then."

 

The Demon King's army is coming soon.

This time, they came with a ferocious monster, but we didn't sit idly by.

We did everything we could, such as delivering letters to major countries, offering cooperation, and holding talks in Luxvis.

Me, Usato, and Kazuki have been fighting dangerous monsters and getting out of trouble.

 

「…… I should have met Usato-kun."

"If you're going to regret it, you should just go for it."

"Do you think I can do that...... It's me, right?"

"It's not something you say with confidence, ......?"

 

He replied to Fulana, the hooded elven girl behind Kazuki, but what came back was a dumbfounded remark.

 

"I can't die at this rate......

"I'll see you whenever I come back alive."

 

Kazuki wears white armor, and I wear light armor that doesn't interfere with movement.

It is based on the one he wore in the previous battle, but it has been upgraded in every element thanks to Samaria's magic tool crafting technology.

At the very least, I wanted to brag to Usato, but it would be too late now.

 

"Either way, I can't do it this time, Kazuki-kun."

"I know, I can't let Usato's help me again."

 

We will not go into the same rut as last time.

…… What is Usato doing now?

By now, he may be waiting for the time of battle with his members as the deputy leader of the rescue team.

He has to go to places as dangerous as we are, if not more. That's the path he's chosen, and it's his role as a lifeguard.

But I want him to be safe.

I don't want them to get hurt, and I don't want them to do anything dangerous.

 

"——— Suzune, that's ......."

"Hmm?"

 

Flana looked ahead and saw Sigurd, dressed in heavy armor and ready for battle, emerging from his stronghold.

Under the gaze of those present, he stands on a lookout tower overlooking the entire army.

With that, the army of the Four Kingdoms, which had been noisy, became completely silent and enveloped in silence.

 

"I am Sigurd, the Commander of the Knights of the Kingdom of Ringle, who has been entrusted with the command of this order! Ladies and gentlemen! From here, the battle with the Demon King's army begins!

 

He wasn't supposed to be using any magic tools or anything, but Sigurd's voice sounded surprisingly good.

Even after attracting the gaze of all those present, Sigurd raised his voice even more in a dignified manner.

 

"The enemy is a demon! Fly through the sky with monsters! Run on the ground! It's a terrifying opponent with more power and magic than humans!"

 

There is a big difference in race.

Although not as strong as the beastmen, humans and demons differ in strength and physical abilities.

The soldiers of Samarian and Kamherio, who are unfamiliar with battle, look up at Sigurd with anxious faces.

 

"But! Humans are not inferior to demons! We have the power to unite! Help each other! I have friends who care about me! The warriors of the Four Kingdoms gathered here are proof of this!"

 

These are just words.

But those words reach the hearts of all the people here and give them strength.

Those who were anxious and those who were afraid of the battle found themselves listening to his words of encouragement.

 

"If we lose, the innocent people living on the continent will be in danger!" It just shouldn't be! We will stop the advance of the Demon Clan here!"

 

At that voice, the soldier roared.

The air vibrates.

The will to fight is transmitted in the form of heat.

The morale of the soldiers was at an all-time high, and at the same time a stinging sensation was felt coming from the direction of the plain.

 

"——"

"Senpai"

"Oh, I have to be prepared."

 

If you turn in the direction of the sign, you will see a plain full of greenery reflected in your field of vision.

The moment they felt something unusual in the air, and the coalition soldiers saw the plain belatedly, something like a black bird soared into the sky from the depths of the hills of the plain.

A flying dragon informed by Amako's prophecy. As the horde of flying dragons with the demon tribe on their backs soar into the sky, the demon tribe and the demons that follow them appear from the ground and rush to the base where we are.

Sigurd, who looked at it calmly, drew the sword at his waist and pointed the tip of the sword at the soldiers of the Demon King's army.

 

"Now is the time to decide our destiny! Whole! Combat Ready!'

"'Wow!'"

 

At the same time, I also drew my sword and wrapped my whole body in the magic of electric shocks.

Kazuki floats a ball of light in his palm, and Furana floats purple magic that flickers like smoke from her dagger.

I'm ready to fight a long time ago.

All you have to do is take the lead as a brave man and lead your friends.

 

●

 

While Mr./Ms. Sigurd's speech was being delivered before the battle against the Demon King's army, Rose and I were in front of a door built in the wall to see off the black-clad Toughmen, Ferm, and Burlin.

They are on a mission to bring in the wounded right after the battle starts, so they have to tell them what they can now.

 

"Bulllyn, be careful, okay?"

"Gru"

 

He places his hands on both cheeks of the armored Bullin and makes eye contact.

Bullin is a companion with whom he has fought and traveled. I know that strength best.

 

"I know you don't have to worry, but when you're in danger...... Ram it and blow it up. Like when you did it to me when I couldn't move."

"Gru......?"

"It's okay, I'll allow it."

"Are you going to give advice with that......?"

 

Ferm, who was beside him, muttered as if he had pulled back.

She had completely covered her head with a hood and was ready to go out in black.

 

"Ferm, I'm going to ask for Bulllin, and you'll be careful."

「…… Yes. Leave it to me."

 

Then, the voice heard from outside turns into a battle cry.

Rose, who was nearby, turned her gaze towards the wall.

 

"——It seems to have begun."

 

The roar of the soldiers can be heard from outside the walls of the base.

A large number of demon screams echo in the background.

 

"What you're going to do is the same as last time, you're going to bring the injured people here. You know what?"

"'Hey!'"

"Well, it's just a little bit more of a range of action, and I don't think there's anybody here that's going to be that bad."

 

At Rose's words, the tough-faced men lined up in a row reply forcefully.

Rose nudges me on the shoulder and I cough.

Rose would like to tell them that they are about to go into battle, and that she should give her a word as the deputy leader.

 

"I don't think you're going to die——— but if you do, I'll beat you up and pull you back."

 

Wet doesn't suit us.

If you say it, it is appropriate to have the same hateful words as usual and rough words with no consideration for each other.

They seem to understand this, and they have a hateful smile on their faces, just like me.

Ferm is looking at me and the tough guys, but let's not worry about that.

Rose, who had seen our exchange, looked around at the black-clad and Bulllyn before walking towards the door and putting her hand on the handle.

 

"It looks like we've exchanged enough words, so let's get on with it. Rescue the injured from the demons who are taking their pets with them!"

 

Letting the momentum take its course, Rose threw the door open, and the black-clad and Bulllyn rushed out with a roar.

Perhaps he missed the timing, but a little later, Ferm hurriedly followed.

 

""Oooooooh!!""

"Guaaaaaaaa

"What?! Wait!"

 

I watched them run closely.

After that, I put my cheeks on my cheeks to get my spirits up, and I headed to the tent where the early activities were to be held with Rose.

 

"The battle seems to be more intense than I expected, and I'll be heading to Olga and the others soon."

"Yes......!"

 

Five healing wizards, led by Mr./Ms. Olga, are already waiting in the tent.

When we arrive at the entrance of the tent, we bow to Mr./Ms. Aluk, a knight from the Kingdom of Ringle who is escorting us healing wizards.

 

"I'm so glad you're here, Mr./Ms. Alc."

 

Mr./Ms. Arc and his fellow knights guard this place where Olga Mr./Ms. and the others are.

He puts his fist to his chest and shows the same dependability as he did on the trip.

 

"No matter who the opponent is, we will definitely defend this place!"

"Olga Mr./Ms. the others...... Thank you very much."

"Leave it to me!"

 

After exchanging a few words with Mr./Ms. Alc, she and Rose stepped into the tent.

Unlike other tents, this place where the rescue team is working is vast, and it is large enough to carry out dozens of injured people.

There are six people in the tent: Nea in human form, Olga Mr./Ms., Uluru Mr./Ms., and Gerna, and they line up when they see me and Rose.

 

"I've been briefed by Usato beforehand, so I think I know...... Your main job is to heal the wounded that the black clothes carry. …… From now on, you may have to make tough choices as a healing wizard. But you'll never forget that you're one of the lives you're saving."

"'Yes!'"

"Okay, go to your respective posts."

 

Following Rose's instructions, Mr./Ms. and the others move to their respective posts.

Of course, as a healing wizard, I will also heal the injured, so I will wait for the black-clad people to come.

Then, Nea in human form comes next to me.

 

"We're just getting started, so we don't have to worry about that, do we?"

"You're so sweet, Nea."

"Huh?"

 

The moment she tilted her head, a black figure rushed in from the entrance of the tent.

The black figure—Tongs yelled at me as he carried the three wounded knights.

 

"I've brought in the wounded--!"

「…… Isn't it too early?"

"That's how hard the fighting is going on outside."

 

Then, following the tongs, Gurd arrives carrying the wounded.

From the looks of it, it looked like he had been possessed by a demon, but he still had to save the injured person.

 

"Hehehe, don't worry, the pain will go away in no time if you go to the deputy leader."

"Whew!?"

 

——— often misunderstood, but it goes without saying that those words were meant with good intentions.

The female knight Mr./Ms. of Calmherio, who is being carried, is screaming hard.

Suppressing the urge to poke around, he lays the injured people who are brought in one after another on the linen-covered ground and administers a healing spell.

 

"Don't worry, I'll heal you with healing magic now."

"Hey, you're the healing wizard of ...... lifesavers."

"Yes...... As long as you don't overdo it, can you tell me what kind of fight is going on outside?"

 

Wanting to know what the battlefield is like now, he asks the female knight Mr./Ms. questions while applying healing magic to her wounded shoulder and leg.

The pain eased, and she calmed down a lot, and she told me what she had seen on the battlefield earlier.

 

"Outside, the Demon Clan and the demons brought by the Demon King's army are fighting...... Wow. A lot of people were being killed by a big snake-like monster and a flying dragon-like monster......

 

The Big Snake...... Is it the snake that the Demon King's army brought with them in the previous battle?

He's pretty nasty because he's going to use poison.

While we were having this conversation, I finished healing the wounds of the female knight Mr./Ms..

With her thanks, he moves on to the next treatment of the injured person.

 

"More people will be brought in than ——— expected."

 

In other words, there are a lot of injuries.

There's still plenty of room to spare, but I get anxious when I see the injured people being brought in in black one after another.

…… Is it okay for me and Rose to leave?

With this concern in mind, he casts healing magic on the warriors of the kingdom of Nirvarna, and notices that Gerna is next to him, who is dedicated to healing magic.

He was trying to heal a knight who was fainting with a blue face, but he was distracted by the busy gaze on the wounded who were being brought in one after another, and he was unable to perform healing magic well.

 

"......!"

 

…… It's his first real battle as a healing wizard.

It's not like I'm used to dying.

 

"Mr. Gerna."

"Oh, Mr./Ms. Usato."

 

After healing the person in front of him, he crouches down in front of Guerna, who is desperately trying to cast a healing spell.

His eyes flickered as he looked up.

 

"Calm down, let's focus on helping the person in front of us first. I'll help out."

 

…… He is slashed deeply in the side with a sword. Unfortunately, the blade must have passed through the border of the armor.

The black clothes used healing magic to give them first aid, but if they were left alone, they would die.

I hold up my palm and cast a healing spell on top of Gerna's hand.

 

"Mr. Gerna, I have been taught to you by a friend in Myalark."

「…… What ...... taught?"

"Instead of thinking only about using healing magic, we should look at someone who is suffering right now...... That's it."

 

I was a ridiculously stupid bastard when I was trying to help Mr./Ms. Charon with an unfinished lineage enhancement.

I was only thinking about succeeding in strengthening the system, so I didn't see the important Charon Mr./Ms..

The person who taught me Sole while my eyes were cloudy was Mr./Ms., the hero of Miarak.

 

"Yes, it's important to hurry, but you can't forget about the people you're dealing with."

 

Perhaps he understood what I was trying to say immediately, and the strong will returned to his eyes, and he began to concentrate on treating his wound by restoring the strength of his palm to normal, which had been unstable.

Seeing him make me feel relieved.

 

"Do you understand?"

「…… Yes!"

 

By the time you realize it, it's much quicker than I am.

His expression is still awkward, though...... At this rate, it seems to be okay.

I was relieved to see how Gerna was doing, and I moved away from him and started treating another injured person.

 

"I'll help."

"Please......

 

I nodded reassuringly to the knight who grabbed my hand with his bloody hand, and administered the healing spell.

The battle outside has only just begun.

It's going to get even more intense from now on.

 

「…… Still."

 

Everybody is fighting.

The tongs continue to carry the injured without stopping.

Not only the healing wizards here, but also Nea provides first aid using cloths and bandages.

I myself have to face the challenges in front of me with everything I have cultivated in this world.
