"Uh, Mr./Ms.! May I meet Suzune-sama?"

 

It was a situation that I had feared.

After checking the great river flowing between the Demon Lord's territory and the human realm, I parted ways with Leona Mr./Ms. in the base and returned to the base of the rescue team's activities.

I'm leaving for the Demon Lord's Realm tomorrow.

I was supposed to spend the night at the base, so just as I was thinking about spending my time calming down, Mr./Ms., who came to visit me, asked me to do something like that.

 

"Hey, Kate, don't bother Mr./Ms. Usato."

 

Mr. Gerna, who came to visit me with her, warns me.

But that doesn't stop Mr./Ms..

 

"You only have a chance now, stop now, Gerna...... I'm going to hold a grudge against you forever!"

"Can you please don't say horrible things in a bouncy voice......?"

 

From the way Kate Mr./Ms. looks, she shouldn't have any malicious intentions...... Isn't it?

I have to get permission from my seniors, but I can't ignore the request of Mr./Ms., who has worked hard to help the rescue team to this day.

 

"Okay, but can I get permission from my seniors? Maybe I'll be turned down, but ......."

"That's fine! In fact, that's what ant!"

"No, it's an ant......

 

I don't know what it is, it's exciting just to be around celebrities...... Huh?

However, seniors are also popular.

In Calmherio, it seems that women are usually popular.

 

"If that's the case, why don't you go right away, will you come?"

"I am...... I don't know what he's going to do, so I'll just follow him."

 

Guerna says as she points to the dreamy Mr./Ms..

Together with Kate Mr./Ms. and Gerna, they leave the rescue team's base and head to their seniors.

As I walked through the torchlighted area, Mr./Ms. suddenly remembered something and spoke to me.

 

"Oh, by the way, there was something I wanted to ask Mr./Ms. Usato after the war ended!"

"Hmm? It's a misunderstanding about the rumors with my seniors, but ......."

"I'm not talking about that, I'm wondering how Mr./Ms. Usato managed to become the healing wizard he ...... now."

 

At Mr./Ms.'s question, Guerna stiffens for a moment.

Healing wizards like we are now, that's the direction we are in, right?

But the question is...... Mr./Ms. is pulling out something like a notepad. What on earth is she going to write?

 

"Well, what is that notebook for?"

"This is to write down Mr./Ms.'s training methods!"

"What for? Maybe you're going to try to put it into practice yourself......?"

"No! Because when I was sent here, I was asked by a great person in the kingdom!"

 

No, this girl is so honest.

It's a different shape, but that's what I was worried about in the first place.

However, Kate Mr./Ms. has come to find out what is going on inside the rescue team...... But I was so engrossed in my seniors that I seemed to have forgotten about them until now.

In other words, the fine play of the seniors (?) Be.

 

"Are you trying to create a healing wizard like me and the Leader in Calmherio......?"

"Oh, really? I don't think it's possible."

"You don't deny it, you don't know you're a spy. This guy ......."

"Great?"

"Enough is enough......

 

Mr./Ms. tilts her head nervously, and Guerna looks tired.

 

"And who's the great guy?" Princess Naia?"

"It wasn't Mistress Naia, it was Mistress Kyle and the Minister."

「…… Ah, I see. yes."

 

No way, it's Prince Kyle.

How do you judge? Did you try to find out the secret of my healing wizard?

It seems too early to think that I sent her right after the meeting...... It's not surprising that he was so competitive.

 

"Mr./Ms., will you have a chance to have an audience with Princess Naia when you return to Kamherio?"

"Well, I heard that Naia is busy, and if you are Kyle, I can see you at a reasonable time......"

 

Prince Kyle...... No, I'm sure it's different now, maybe.

But isn't it so easy to meet Princess Naia?

 

"Then is it possible to give only that notebook?"

"Oh, I can do that! You may be able to check the contents for inspection!"

"Well, can you lend me that notebook for a moment?"

"Yes!"

 

Surprised by her handing over the notebook without much hesitation, I stopped on the spot and picked up the pen that was sandwiched.

What's in it...... This is what I am writing and asking that the healing wizard not to undergo harsh training, and that the healing wizard who has been sent to do no harm to the healing wizard - Mr./Ms. - is not to be harmed in any way.

Also, although it's not much of an alternative, I wrote that it's better to train healing wizards who specialize in the healing direction like Olga Mr./Ms. and Uluru Mr./Ms. than to train healing wizards like us.

In addition, I will write in as much detail as possible about how healing wizards like Mr./Ms. Kate played an active role in this war, and appeal their usefulness.

 

"Okay, okay, here you go."

"Thank you!"

"Uh, yes?"

 

…… Why did you thank me? As for me......? Is it a sign colored paper or something?

When you start walking again, you will soon arrive at the desired place.

There were a number of small tents, with a bonfire in the center of the tent illuminating the surroundings.

 

「…… Oh, there it was."

 

In a place illuminated by the light of a bonfire, he finds his senior, Mr./Ms., sitting on a log that has been used as a chair, and Kazuki, who is sitting in the same place across the bonfire.

For the time being, I let Kate and Mr./Ms. wait on the spot and approach the three of them.

 

"Hmm? Isn't it Usato-kun? What's going on?"

 

At the sound of the senpai's voice noticing me, Kazuki and Leona Mr./Ms. look at me.

I scratch my cheek in annoyance as I reply to my senior.

 

"Actually, there is a child who wants to meet a senior."

"Do you want to see me?"

"I'm told that he's an ardent fan of his seniors."

 

When he said this without joking, the senior who put his hand to his forehead smiled.

 

"You're a die-hard fan, so you have to live up to that expectation as a hero...... Don't do it!"

"Do you mean it's OK?"

"Off Course!! Leona, are you ready...... Whew!!"

"Suzune! Wow, I don't care!?"

 

I'm even more excited today.

Mr./Ms. next door is very confused, but when did they start calling each other out?

Anyway, I got the approval and beckoned to the two people behind me.

Then Mr./Ms., whose eyes were shining, ran towards us at a trot.

 

"Mr./Ms. Usato! Thank you!!"

"Don't worry about it, you can talk to your seniors as much as you want. The person next to my senior is Mr./Ms. Leona. She's the hero of Mialak. And in front of you is Kazuki, another hero of the Ringle Kingdom."

"Huh!? Is it Kazuki-sama, another hero, and Leona-sama, who solved the big incident that happened in Miarak with Mr./Ms. Usato!? What a pity! I won't complain if I am told that I have already used up my life's worth of luck!!"

 

Mr./Ms., who thanked her profusely once more, walked over to her senior, who was beckoning with a smile.

 

"Suzune-sama, Leona-sama! I'm going to see you for the first time! I'm a healing wizard in the kingdom of Kamherio! My name is Kate!!"

"Yes, my name is Kate, and I'm Suzune Inukami. He is the hero of the Lingle Kingdom."

"Wow, I'm Leona, Miarak ...... He's a brave man."

 

A senior who confidently introduces herself, and Mr./Ms. Leona, who is ashamed to say her name.

Mr./Ms. Kate is thrilled with joy in front of these two contrasting people.

…… yes, it seems to be okay somehow.

 

"Hey, Usato."

 

Kazuki, who is sitting on a separate log from Senpai and Leona Mr./Ms., raises his hand here.

 

"I'm going now, Gerna."

"Eh, are you sure?"

"I don't mind at all, and we're close to our age."

 

Together with Guerna, he walks up to Kazuki and sits down in the empty space of the log.

There is plenty of room for three people to sit down.

 

"Usato, is he there?"

"Mr. Gerna came from the Kingdom of Nirvarna to reinforce the Rescue Corps, and he is a healing wizard like me."

"Nice to meet you, I'm Gerna, and I know Kazuki-sama very well because I've been to Nirvarna."

 

Guerna bowed his head in awe, and Kazuki scratched his cheek in annoyance.

 

"Uh, well, you don't have to put it on, do you? Apparently we're the same age, so you don't have to force yourself to speak in honorific language."

"No, I don'...... that."

 

It's a little itchy to be spoken to in honorifics by Mr. Gerna, who is about the same age as me.

Aside from people who use honorifics on a daily basis, such as Mr./Ms. Halfa of Luqvis, Guerna's usual way of speaking would be different.

 

"It's too late, but I don't have to speak honorifically, I don't mind if you speak in the same tone as when we first met."

「…… Wow, I get it...... I get it."

"Well then, see you again, Gerna."

 

Kazuki smiled brightly, and Guerna nodded in confusion.

Next, Kazuki turns his attention to the seniors who are talking over the fire.

 

"Did Usato come here to let him meet his senpai?"

"Yes, she's a healing wizard from Calmherio...... He asked me to meet him, so I brought him here."

"Well, I was adored by my seniors before, but it seems that they are no different in this world."

"I don't mean before......"

"Oh, that's what I mean."

 

Perhaps out of consideration for Gerna, Kazuki blurted out his expression.

By before, I guess you mean the world before we were summoned.

 

"But I guess you were really looking forward to it."

"I've been told about the hero every now and then in the past week, I'......."

"Oh, not really...... It's indeed a person from Calmherio......"

 

Kazuki smiled wryly at Gerna's nervousness.

Kamherio has a belief in heroism, so Mr./Ms.'s obsession may be natural in a sense.

…… From the sidelines, it looks like he's overjoyed to meet celebrities.

 

"Usato has been looking towards the taiga in the daytime, hasn't he? What was it like?"

"That's right...... From what I saw today, it wasn't that fast. It's a little wide, but with Leona's Mr./Ms. magic, I don't think it's hard to build a bridge."

"Well, I was a little relieved because it would be difficult if I stumbled before entering the Demon King Territory."

"Hahaha, that's right."

 

If that happens, I'll think of another way, but I'm sure I'll be stuck in a useless standstill.

 

「…… They're going to a great place."

"From your point of view, what kind of place is the Demon Lord's Domain?"

"I don't think most people, or rather, most people, know what the Demon Lord's Realm is like, because it's a race that has hated each other for hundreds of years."

 

Saying this, Guerna stared at the bonfire.

 

"If I were to imagine it, the Demon Clan is a terrifying subhuman, maybe it's because I've heard the legends of my ancestors who fought against the Demon King Army when I was a previous hero, but even if I don't take it out, this battle won...... Honestly, it shook me from the bottom of my heart."

 

Nirvarna is a country with many militants.

In such a country, even in the era of the previous hero, they might have boldly challenged the Demon King's army.

That is exactly what the Demon King army led by the "Terrible Demon King" who did his utmost to commit treasonous acts as described in the memoirs.

 

「…… I shouldn't have said this to the two people who are leaving tomorrow. I'm sorry."

"No, it was helpful, thank you."

 

As Guerna apologizes for her apology, Kazuki shakes her head.

The perception of the demons in this world is that they are terrifying...... On the other hand, what is the perception that the demon tribe has of humans?

…… Maybe the demon tribe also thinks humans are terrifying.

 

"Suzune-sama, I was there!"

 

At that time, I suddenly heard such a voice in front of me.

If you look at it, you can see Kate Mr./Ms. with her eyes shining as she talks to her seniors.

However, the senior's expression seemed to be somewhat twitching.

 

"Oh, what is that place...... Where is it?'

『? Suzune, your voice is trembling. What's going on?'

 

Mr./Ms. tilts her head at the senior who is upset as if she somehow predicted it.

Whether or not she knew about her upset, Mr./Ms. just spoke.

 

"It's the square where Prince Kyle's confession was cut off!"

『…… Oh, yes, ...... Gaha!'

"Usato! Suzune collapsed with her chest pressed against her chest!

 

The senior, who looked at Kate's Mr./Ms. and me alternately, turned red in the face and gushed out.

Mr./Ms., who supported her as she fell backwards, asks me for help, but she shakes her head desperately.

 

"Well, I don'...... manage it."

 

For the time being, the Demon King, the Demon Tribe, and the Demon King Territory must be seen with their own eyes.

Seeing my seniors who were noisy in a good way, I was somewhat relieved of my tension, and I stood up to help my seniors.
