After...... Rather, the Lingle Kingdom, which I had visited over the hundreds of years, had surprisingly not changed.
In this world, where discrimination against subhumans still exists, no one looks at me when they see me, and in fact, they welcome me.
Once again, I regretted a little that I didn't bring Hisago here at that time, but I ended up living in this Ringle Kingdom.
The place to stay during your stay is the dormitory of the rescue team where Usato's live.
It was a place to stay that was decided by the fact that I interrupted the table for a moment and insisted, but it was certainly the only place where I could stay without worry.
The first few days after coming to the Lingle Kingdom were difficult because I was asked various questions and talked in the castle.
In particular, the stern expressions of the scholars, including Wealthy, were a little frightening.
"It's been a long time since ———, Kannagi."
"It's been a long time, Master Farga, you're old."
"Are you still rude, sir?"
And then there's Falga.
He is older than when I saw him before he was sealed, but his presence has not changed at all.
I conversed with him through a magic tool that resembled a fountain in the hall, and he asked me about the soul in which the power that Falga had separated as a weapon had been altered.
"You exist as a unique soul, not me, then you are neither I nor Kannagi, but a life with a will. …… I have nothing to say."
We had a conversation up to that point, and one of me told me that I had a question for Falga.
She seemed to be serious, so when I switched her consciousness and mine, my mouth began to move on its own.
"Falga, why is there such a thing as the Kureha Fountain?"
「……」
"Was it something that originally existed in Mealark? Yourself,There・・Is it something you have to protect so much that you can't get away from it?"
「……」
"Foreknowledge of parallel worlds, and it wasn't until Usato's visit to Miarak that I learned about the disturbing existence of the Kureha Fountain. Farga, the Kureha Fountain is ...... Where does the fountain that drives people crazy come from?"
In response to her question, Falga remained silent for a while.
Besides me, there are other Lloyd kings here.
When he says that he is talking, it is a story that should not be said at this stage.
"I can't say it here.What・・I don't know if you're listening."
「…… I get it."
So she withdrew and retreated inside me.
Falga-sama sees us as we regain control of our bodies.
"The world moves, the people, the subhumans—and the ones that lurk behind the world that the young man has sealed and unleashed."
「…… See you ......."
I can guess the general idea just by those words.
Hisago's despair and hope for the world.
They are jumbled together and bared their fangs to those living in the present.
"I don't think it's just a human problem, I have mixed feelings, but the Demon King is on my side right now. I'm going to let him cooperate."
"Are you talking?"
「…… Yes. It's very, very troublesome."
It's a dragon's face, but I know it's very disgusting.
Falga-sama and the Demon King used to be like oil and water.
Well, I can see that you look disgusted.
However, since it is necessary, I have no choice but to leave it to you without saying anything more.
Hisago's negative legacy -- a test for humans living in the present day.
I don't know what it will be like, but I have to do my best for the people of this era.
●
After the story at the castle, we return to the lifeguards' quarters.
Then, on the way, he meets the so-called tough men of the rescue team, who are running in as usual.
When they saw me, they stopped in their tracks.
「「「「「 tired! Kannagi's sister!!」」」」」
——— such a bow and voice that seems to be a shockwave flying.
From the incident with Mr./Ms. Rose, they call me by a strange name.
When I was holding my head involuntarily, the tough guys called out.
"Kannagi's sister! What's the matter?"
"Are you going to call me a stupid bastard!?"
"Wait, the pressure is so great, take a step back, and sister, please stop, ......?"
I'm already very excited.
I'm a beastman, but I don't care as much as these people.
They all tilted their heads at my words.
"Because, if you're going to cross paths with the leader, you can only call me sister."
"I'm younger, ......?"
"We don't have seniority."
If you ask me, I don't think that's true, .......
But why is he always fighting with Usato?
…… Oh I got it.
"Is Usato, in training now?"
"Are you a bastard of Usato? He was running in just a while ago, and I think he's on the training ground right now."
Training grounds?
When I say thank you, they reply with a dashing response.
While reaffirming the foreignness of the place of the rescue team, I move to the training ground where Usato-kun is.
"It's really a training session every day."
"Isn't that why Usato became like that?"
The part of me mutters.
Unlike the two heroes, Usato doesn't have the talent to fight.
He is not as physically capable as I am.
By using healing magic, it is a forced thing that continues to increase its ability to grow, and it continues to grow stronger.
If there's something unique about him, it's his mentality.
He doesn't break.
No matter what situation you are in, no matter how hopeless the situation, you will never give up.
His insane spirit of steel finally led the Demon King to admit defeat.
"You got through that woman's training with that, didn't you?"
"Hahaha......
I haven't seen what kind of training he was given by Mr./Ms. Rose.
It's just that no one else has ever achieved it -- if you're going to make a healing wizard like Rose, it's something that you can't even surpass with a normal mind.
"From your point of view, what do you think?"
"What do you think?"
"You put your hands together once."
"We weren't serious about each other."
Although the degree is different, if you do it seriously like Mr./Ms., you will destroy the surroundings.
Therefore, it is still fresh in my memory that I joined hands with Usato with a light heart.
In a state of non-assimilation, he skillfully manipulated the gauntlet in his right arm and repelled the sword I wielded.
His extraordinary reflexes and strong gauntlet defenses gave the illusion that he was dealing with an impenetrable block of iron.
"Oh......."
As soon as you enter the training ground, you will find Usato.
He seems to be training by a square weight made of stone near the entrance.
I immediately decided to call out to him, and when I approached him, I saw that he wasn't standing, but a one-arm push-up with a handstand. I was doing it.
"No, no, no! Nak, can you still go!"
"I'm still fine......
"Okay......! It's a little bit later!"
While calling out to Mr. Nak, who is doing a normal push-up next to him, he slowly bends his right arm, which supports his entire body, and returns it to its original position.
Moreover, you can see that it is not a normal training when you wrap a weight around your body.
"Yes......."
"The training method is too forceful......
I mean, it's a training method that makes you tired just by looking at .......
I'm sure there's nothing I can't do, but how long do I do it?
I didn't want to disturb them, so I decided to watch the training from a distance.
"Nak, if it's hard, you can take a break, okay?"
"Well, I can still go!"
「…… Okay!"
Usato casually sends healing magic to Nak.
I'm just watching them train endlessly.
"Oh, it never ends......!? What do you mean, Kannagi! It's not going to end!?'
"Ahaha......
Yes, there is no sign of an end at all.
As for Nak, we can see that Usato is training while healing, as he often throws healing magic, but Usato doesn't use healing magic on himself at all.
However, he continues to do inverted one-sided push-ups endlessly.
"Alright—"
"Oh, finally—"
"Next is my left arm."
「……」
Just when you think you're done, you can become your left arm and keep going.
After continuing training for the same amount of time, Usato's body finally returns to its original state from an inverted position.
It's amazing in many ways, and when it was a little twilight, Usato noticed me.
"Mr./Ms. Nagi, I'm sorry, I didn't notice."
"Oh, yes...... Are you okay?"
"It's okay, it's good."
"Well done, Nak."
Usato smiles softly as he casts a healing spell on Nak, who is lying on the ground in a state of distraction.
…… It still doesn't look like healing.
"Usato, aren't you tired?"
"Eh, no, I used healing magic, so it's okay."
「…… Eh, when?"
「? It was just a while ago."
……。
Could it be that he healed his body with healing magic so quickly that even my eyes didn't even notice it?
"I didn't notice."
"Hahaha, this may also be thanks to the magic power circulation, and I feel that the efficiency and speed of circulating magic throughout the body has increased greatly thanks to this."
Saying this, Usato, showing me a hand with a magic bullet floating on it.
It moves from the index finger to the middle finger to the ring finger, one after another at a tremendous speed.
Did you mean that you had mastered the basics of magic so thoroughly that you were able to heal things that even I didn't ...... notice?
As he is stunned by his skills, Knack, who had fallen earlier, quickly stands up.
"Mr./Ms. Usato, you can still go."
"So, let's do some evasion drills this time?"
"Are you the one who dodges magic bullets?"
"Yes...... Oh, yes."
Usato presses it to his chin and thinks about something.
I wonder what happened?
"There's a training method that I was actually thinking of doing with the team leader...... If it's Nagi Mr./Ms., maybe it's ......."
"What? What is it? I'll do anything to help you."
I thought it would be useful, so I agreed with a little bit.
"Thank you, it's pretty easy, so I'll explain it to you."
I follow Usato, who starts walking.
It usually stops about 10 meters away from where Mr. Nak is.
"Stand here"
"Yes."
"From now on, I'm going to play catch."
"Are you the one who used to throw magic bullets at each other?"
"Oh, that's right."
That's what I was watching from Usato's gauntlet.
Usato, who nodded with a smile, stepped about 20 meters away from me and created a magic bullet wrapped in elasticity in his hand.
"I'm going to throw this now, so throw it back, and the trick is to throw it back as soon as you get it."
"Okay, okay, it's okay to be quick."
Understood, he muttered, and he swung his arm and threw a magic bullet at me.
I take it in my hand and return it immediately.
After about five rounds, Usato creates another magic bullet and adds more.
"We're going to increase the number."
"Oh, that's fun, this."
Two or three magic bullets that increase like beanbags.
Heartlessly, Nak's expression seems to be getting paler and paler as he looks at us, but it's usually fun.
It's fun to throw and catch.
The effect of the bouncy effect disappears and more magic bullets are added as they disappear, so it seems that the limit for now is three.
Once he's erased all the magic bullets and pauses, he smiles at me.
"What do you think? Do you think you're okay?"
"Not at all, it's all right, but how is this going to be your training?"
"I'll explain that now, too, Nak."
As soon as Usato calls his name, he comes.
Usato points to the area between himself and me.
"Nak, stand in the middle between me and Mr./Ms. Nagi."
"Huh, yes?"
Hesitantly, as if he had sensed something, Nak moved right into the middle of us.
"I stood, but ......."
"Okay, let's get started."
"What?"
Usato, who has created a magic bullet wrapped in elasticity, throws a magic bullet.
When Mr. Nak dodges it at the last minute, I, who is behind him, catches the magic bullet.
"What? But Mr. Nak ...... in between."
"Hehehe, it's actually a training to avoid magic bullets not only from the front, but also from behind."
「「……」」
"Come on, Nak, it's healing magic, so don't worry!"
Usato continues to create magic bullets, and Nak looks at him with twitching cheeks.
I said I would help with anything, but I never thought that I would have to go through such a horrible training.
But it makes sense.
There's no denying the fact that it makes sense......
It's certainly a good training method to train your evasive ......!
"Mr. Nak, I'm going to make you a demon in my heart!"
"Ru, Ruru, Rukuvis, Nightmare again......!?"
"Dodge it, naaaaaaaaa
"Huh!?"
Magic bullets fly between me and Usato, and the boy's screams echo through the air.
This is the training of the rescue team ......!
It's terrifying, but the results are tremendous......

Nak, it was dodgeball training in hell.
And it's a simple trick called magic spinning, but it's a bad technique.
