As for the members who will go to the Demon Lord's Territory together, Bullin has been confirmed first.
Bulllin's presence can help me in many ways, and above all, it seems that demons are closer to the demon tribe than humans, so I also thought that Bullin would be a mascot.
And the other member is Uluru Mr./Ms., who was recommended by Rose.
She told me that Rose had talked to her, but I thought I had to talk to her first, so I went to the clinic where she was today.
"Has Nak been to the infirmary before?"
"Yes, a couple of times."
Also, today I'm bringing Nak with me on a separate matter from Uluru Mr./Ms..
"Well, you seem to know the atmosphere somehow."
"Yes, both Mr./Ms. Olga and Uluru Mr./Ms. were very kind and kind to me as a newcomer."
Uluru Mr./Ms. seems to love Nak.
"It's kind of strange."
"Hmm? What?"
"That's how I walk down the street."
"Haha, yes, I think it's so rare that we're surprised."
He smiles wryly at Nak's words.
It's like lifesaving = running, so it's common for people to be surprised that they're not running.
"If I were running normally, people would be surprised."
"What, why?"
"I'm not carrying a bulllyn on my back, because."
"Oh, it's a set with Bulllin......
It's not hard not to be treated as a specialty of the Ringle Kingdom.
It's like a man running with a bear on his back.
"Nak is ......."
"Yes?"
Suddenly, I see Nak walking next to me and remember his situation.
Remembering, I hesitate for a moment and then venture to ask.
"I haven't heard from my family...... Haven't you come?"
「……」
Parents as nobles.
They neglected him not only for his magical talents, but also for sending him to the Luxvis Academy.
"The letter came."
「…… It didn't seem to be very good."
Rather than being expressionless, I could tell by looking at Nak's slightly darkened face.
"He seemed to be concerned about the status of our situation, asking him what he was doing in the lifeguards and how much his magic had improved......
"That's ......."
"I know. ProbablyThat kind of thing・・・・・・That's true. I had high hopes though. Those people haven't changed."
The perception of healing wizards is changing.
He is aware that it was the rescue team that started it, but was he also trying to find out the inner workings of the rescue team through Nak?
I'd like to think that the letter was purely out of concern for Nak...... Judging by the look on Nak's face, that seems unlikely.
"There was no word of concern, from the beginning, what were you doing with the rescue team? How much healing magic has become? I'm just going to write down what I want to hear and I deserve a response."
「……」
It'...... too spicy.
I lightly put my hand on Nak's head, who is smiling helplessly.
"So, do you want to get into your parents' house as you wish?"
"What!?"
"If you want to see what's going on inside the rescue team, you can show them what you're doing, and if you put the main guys in the forefront, there won't be any complaints or interference, right?"
Well, I'm just kidding.
But I don't know if Rose gives me the go-ahead.
"Nak, if you have a hard time, you can talk to me, okay?"
「……」
"You're already an official lifeguard, and if something happens, we'll protect you."
If they were tough, they would rather take the initiative to protect Nak.
They're not like me, they love Nak.
"You might be dealing with a nobleman, right?"
"Why don't you say the same thing in front of the leader?"
"I don't think they're even going to deal with them."
Nak will change his opinion instantly.
Rather, I feel that it is more rare to have someone who can go against the leader head-on.
"Oh, but," he said, "I got a letter from my sister mixed in with my parents' letter. Apparently they hid it and mixed it up."
"Isn't that good?"
"Yes, but I've been making my sister feel lonely all the time, and I thought I'd better ask Mina in Luxvis to send it to my sister."
"To Mina?"
"He was very close to my sister."
Isn't the situation surrounding this child a little too complicated?
You have to help while I'm here.
To that end, first of all...
"Alright, we've arrived."
I need to improve this child's skills as a healing wizard.
I stopped in front of the clinic and looked at the knack next to me and decided to do so again.
●
When we entered the clinic, we were greeted by Mr./Ms. Olga and Mr./Ms. Uluru.
I was invited to the guest room at the back of the clinic, and as prompted, I took a seat in front of Nak, and a gentle man, Mr./Ms. Olga, sat on a chair.
"Well done, Usato-kun and Nak-kun."
"Yes......
"Mr./Ms. Olga seems to be doing well, and above all."
When I hear that four of the five healing wizards in the Lingle Kingdom are here, I can't help but think that it's a terrible thing.
"Are you talking about Uluru today?"
"Yes, and there's one more thing."
"Hmm...... So let's wait until Uluru brings you a cup of tea. Let's make small talk in the meantime."
First of all, after Uluru Mr./Ms. came.
Well, I'm not in much of a hurry......
"I heard that you fought with Mr./Ms.'s men at the meeting."
「…… Yes. Did Mr./Ms. Olga know about them?"
"We didn't know each other directly, but they were famous in the Ringle Kingdom."
Well, if you're Rose's subordinate, you're probably famous in both good and bad ways.
I've heard rumors about them from Lloyd and Mr./Ms. Sigurd.
"It was really, really hard."
"yes, I've struggled to work with them to take advantage of their strengths and complement each other, and the next time we run into them, we won't always be able to do the same......
It's surprising that Mr./Ms. is the only one who has a will for that.
If they all had the right intentions, I might have been the one who lost.
"Yes, welcome, Usato-kun, Nak-kun."
While we were having such a conversation, Mr./Ms. Uluru, who was preparing tea, arrived.
She offers us a cup of tea and sits down next to Mr./Ms. Olga.
「…… Yeah? Did you tell me something?"
"No, I don't care...... Well, it looks like Uluru is here, so let's get down to business."
"That's right."
One of the purposes of coming here.
That is, ask Mr./Ms. if she will accompany you as one of the members of the Demon Lord's Dispatch.
"It's not that I'm not interested, but ......."
"If you can't, you can say so, because I don't want to force you to take you."
"I'm sorry, I want to help you, but I'm also in charge of this."
We are prepared to take all possible precautions, but it is also true that there are dangers.
I have no intention of forcibly taking Uluru Mr./Ms. to such a place.
"Uluru, why don't you go and don't worry about me?"
「…… Eh, brother, are you serious? What about this clinic?"
No way Olga Mr./Ms. gave me a boost.
And not only me and Nak, but also Uluru Mr./Ms. is surprised.
"You're a little too protective of me and too careless about yourself, so why don't you move on without thinking about me or the clinic?"
"Brother, I'm worried that you'll be weak without me......"
"Well, wait a minute, Uluru, I'm starting to get worried about how poor you perceive me to be."
It's no wonder that Mr./Ms. thinks she's overprotective.
It is true that Mr./Ms. is physically weak, but it should not affect her daily life.
…… But for Uluru Mr./Ms., Olga Mr./Ms. is family...... Well let's see.
"I can't even find someone who cares about me forever, right?"
"Don't worry, I'll get it for you then, Usato-kun!"
"What?"
「…… Well, then you don't have to worry."
「!?」
I was drinking tea while watching the exchange between the two of them, when a ridiculous stray bullet flew by.
Moreover, without any particular resistance, Mr./Ms. Olga admitted it.
Is it an auditory hallucination?! Is this exchange an auditory hallucination?
"Na, nak?"
"Tea is delicious...... yes, it's delicious......
...... you stare at a single point of tea and try not to get involved in the story!?
"So, what about the clinic?" Mr./Ms. patients come in, and I think it's going to be hard for my brother to be alone......
"Well, I'm worried about that, but as long as you don't overdo it, you'll be fine."
"Such an ambiguous ......."
Uluru Mr./Ms. puts her hand on her forehead in annoyance, and Olga Mr./Ms. smiling in annoyance.
Aside from me, it seems that quite a few people are visiting the clinic, and I understand that you are worried that Mr./Ms. will get sick.
"Oh, I'll help Mr./Ms. Olga!"
「!」
"Mr. Nak......?"
Suddenly, Nak, who was next to me, spoke to the two of them.
Olga Mr./Ms. and Uluru look at me in amazement, Mr./Ms. Nak looks at me.
"Oh, Mr./Ms....... Usato."
"It's okay, just tell me what you want to do. It's okay, I'm with you."
I was actually going to cut it out after this, but if Nak says it of his own volition, that's better.
"Oh, I'm still inexperienced as a healing wizard, so I'm here today to teach Mr./Ms. Olga about healing magic."
The best way to train healing magic is with Mr./Ms. Olga, who is better at handling it than me and Rose.
With that in mind, I brought Nak with me, but .......
"So, if you're worried about Olga Mr./Ms. alone, you can't replace Uluru Mr./Ms....... I hope I can help...... That's it."
「「……」」
While Uluru and Mr./Ms.Mr./Ms. Usato go to the Demon Lord's Realm on an important mission, I'll help Olga Mr./Ms. the infirmary! If necessary, I'll stay overnight and train properly......!"
「「……」」
"Oh, no, no?"
I was able to see Nak now that he was able to think and act on his own, and I was able to strongly feel his growth.
Olga Mr./Ms., who had been listening to Nak's words in silence, called out the name of Mr./Ms. Uluru, who was also listening.
"Uluru"
"If Mr. Nak says so much, I will have no choice but to give in...... Mr. Nak!"
"Huh, yes!?"
Nak's shoulders shake in surprise when his name is suddenly called, and Mr./Ms. Uluru leans over the table and strokes his head.
"You've grown up in a while without looking at you in a while, so I wonder if you're similar to Usato-kun in that way?"
"Oh, thank you very much......"
Mr./Ms. Uluru is happy to see Nak grow.
Of course, as his mentor, I also have a high nose.
…… No, I've really grown.
"Hehe, Usato-kun, dispatch to the Demon King Territory, I'll be joining you, so thank you!"
"Yes, thank you very much."
Mr./Ms. Uluru became one of the members to be dispatched.
With her demon-like communicative skills, it should be easier to get along with the demons.
Well, ...... anyway.
"Nak, do you want to eat something delicious on the way home?"
"Oh, no, it's okay...... Is it?"
"Huh, you don't tell Nea and Ferm, do you?"
"Usato-kun has a very sweet side for Nak-kun...... No, I know the tongs are too."
This isn't sweet.
It's like a fair reward for Nak's growth.
"Mr./Ms. Uluru, don't worry."
"What?"
"When I'm training, I'm always on my mind."
"I'm just worried......!? Mr. Nak is nodding enthusiastically!?"
Afterwards, Nak and I ate the delicious food from the street stalls introduced to Uluru Mr./Ms. on the way home...... However, due to Nea and Ferm, who have a keen sense of intuition and smell, they found out that they ate delicious food on the way home, and another agony occurred.
