Seniors were to participate in the training of the rescue team.

That's all there is to it, but it seems that the fact that she participated in the training as a lifesaver was quite a surprise to the people of the Lingle Kingdom.

When she was running with us in the city, she looked at us twice.

 

"The dormitory is almost complete."

"That's right."

 

A senior student dressed in a training uniform provided by the rescue team jumps lightly and throws a jump kick.

If you catch it head-on with your crossed arms, it will rotate in the air and derive into a roundhouse kick.

 

"Uh-huh."

 

Sway your body and avoid kicks.

Now he is doing kumite with his seniors at the training ground, but his seniors are formidable even if they don't use a sword.

The power of each blow is small, but it is a ...... that always brings out techniques that exceed my expectations!

 

"Shall we use magic then?"

"Yes."

 

My senior wears a thin electric shock all over my body, and I crush the magic bullet in my palm.

I, who expanded my senses with magical sensing, and my senior, who moves at high speed with electric shocks, accelerate the speed of the kumite with each other.

He defends the attack accurately with his eyes and senses, and his seniors try to pass through the holes in the defense with his skill and speed.

 

"Oh my gosh!"

"Hmmm!?"

 

Suddenly, the moment my senior put his hand on my arm, my vision spun around.

When I realize I've been thrown, I change my position in mid-air and land on the ground.

 

"Aiki......?"

"I've learned enough to bite in the original world, well, it's a bit of self-defense."

 

You used my power to throw it.

Unlike power, it is a technique that involves skill.

Feeling as if he had been enchanted, he stood up.

 

"Let's get it done here, shall we?"

"Well, are you going to the castle now?"

"Yes, I heard that the personnel to be sent to the Demon King Territory have been decided, so I was asked to meet with them before leaving."

 

Could it be said that they are auditors who are heading to the Demon Lord's Realm together?

My general role is to report on the demon tribe and to deepen my friendship and understanding with them.

I think that the Lingle Kingdom side will choose someone who has as wide a perspective as possible and has common sense...... Well, you don't know until you try it.

 

"Okay, senior."

"Hmm? What's going on?"

"Right now, Nea and Ferm are trying to get out of here because they are feeling the signs of training, but please take care of them while I'm gone."

"Ugh......!?"

 

Ferm and Nea let out a groan as they try to leave without a sound.

With my magic sense, it's impossible to escape.

 

「…… Whew, okay!!"

"Usato! You just got an impure smile on your face?!"

"I'm definitely going to do something with this guy!?"

 

I don't trust it.

For the past few days, the seniors have been training seriously.

 

"By the way, what are you going to do?"

"After running for the time being...... I'm going to give them an electric massage."

"Wow, that's good."

"It's not good!? I only feel that I am in danger!?"

 

 

Isn't that too scary?

…… Oh, that kind of massage? Is it because I don't know that there is?

 

"Humans like you will be scared even if you get an electric shock, but we are demons and demons!?"

 

Oh, that's a terrible thing to say, .......

I'm also a human being.

I explain to Nea, who desperately appeals to me, while twitching my cheeks.

 

"Okay, electric massage, maybe you can get rid of the fatigue of training and stiff shoulders?"

"What? Stiff shoulders ?......"

"Hey, this milk ghost, what are you worried about...... Why do you look at me with pitying eyes...... Suzune, don't look at me like that!!"

 

…… Somehow, the two of them are getting along well with their seniors.

During the early morning run, I usually talked to the tongs...... Or rather, it was a little bit of a slap in the face, but if she's doing well here, that's fine.

 

"Okay, senior, I'll ask you here."

"Come on, Usato-kun!"

"Yes, I'm coming."

 

For the time being, let's head to the dormitory to change into formal clothes before heading to the castle.

However, I'm curious who will be the dispatched member.

 

●

 

As soon as I made my way to the castle, I was taken to the training ground where the people who were to be sent were gathered.

The knights of the Ringle Kingdom Mr./Ms. know their faces even if they don't know their names, so they don't have to worry about who ...... chosen.

 

"How many people were you able to recruit?"

 

I asked Mr./Ms. who was guiding me.

The mage Mr./Ms. puts his finger to his mouth and immediately answers with a friendly smile.

 

"It's about five people."

"It's surprisingly few......

"Since the beginning, personnel have been dispatched to the Demon King Domain, and those who will be dispatched this time will go as followers...... In fact, it's for the purpose of assisting and escorting Usato-sama."

"I see......

 

If that's the case, it makes sense that the number of people is small.

Well, I'm going to have Mr./Ms. escort Uluru more than me.

 

"And this was decided suddenly......

"Did something happen?"

"The Kingdom of Nirvarna will also send personnel."

"Nirvarna ......"

 

What comes to mind is Ouka-sama and Harold-sama, who I met at the previous meeting.

 

"It's really steep......

"It's been a while since we met, but since the Kingdom of Nirvarna is a country that does not discriminate against subhumans, it can be said that it is a suitable country to send personnel, so with the approval of the Demon Lord, we decided to go to the Demon King Territory with Usato-sama and the others."

 

If it's already decided, I don't have anything to say.

In fact, it can be said to be reassuring.

 

"I think we're going to be able to cooperate on the ground."

"Yes, I don't think Usato-sama would have to worry."

 

Nirvarna?

I hope someone like Mr./Ms. Hyde will come.

As you do so, you will arrive at the training ground.

 

"These are the knights and mages who will accompany us this time."

 

When I look at where Mr./Ms. pointed her palm, I realize that there is a person there who is familiar to me.

 

"Aluk-san!"

 

This is Mr./Ms. Alc, a reliable companion with whom I traveled to deliver letters.

He seems to have noticed me too, and he waves at me.

 

"I ...... you're here."

"Yes, I have been invited to participate in Lord Usato's expedition mission."

 

It's reassuring to have Mr./Ms. Alc coming!

But.......

 

"You're going to the Demon Lord's Territory, aren't you......?"

"I know, there will be dangers...... Above all, I wanted to help you, so I accepted this request."

"ALC Mr./Ms......."

"The rest of us are here with the same feeling."

 

Then Mr./Ms. introduces the other four.

Three of them were new to me, and one of them was someone I knew.

 

"Mr./Ms. Kurumia, wasn't it? I ...... that I was accompanying my seniors on their journey when I handed over the letter."

"Yes, I was asked to participate in this mission. Please, thank you, Usato-sama."

 

Mr./Ms. Kurmia, a knight Mr./Ms. who was a senior bodyguard.

He was on good terms with his seniors, and he must have a perfect personality.

The others aren't grumpy either, and for the time being, I don't have a problem with staffing.

 

"Once again, thank you very much, I am sure that this dispatch will not be easy and there will be problems, but let's not give up and fulfill our mission."

"'Yes!'"

"Also, there will be one more person from the rescue team except for me."

"Alone?"

"What the heck?"

"...... one?"

 

Oh, was it really hard to understand?

But there are times when Nea is in an owl state and a person.

 

"I heard that Lord Usato and Lord Amako have returned to Hinomoto once, but who else will accompany you besides Bullin and Nea?"

"Alc, do you know ......!?"

 

Mr./Ms. is very surprised, but they are friends who have traveled together and overcome many hardships.

I trust Mr./Ms. Alc.

 

"This is Mr./Ms. Uluru, she's a healing wizard like me, and above all, she was recommended by the leader of the group to be the best in terms of personality."

"That's what you meant, I understand."

 

With the Mr./Ms. of the Arcs, Uluru's Mr./Ms. escort would be solid.

In the event of an emergency, I will act to protect her.

Then, after talking about the Demon Lord's Territory and discussing a few things, it was decided to disband on the spot today.

 

"Oh, Lord Usato-"

"What's wrong? Mr./Ms. Kurumia."

 

I look back at Mr./Ms. Kurumia, who spoke to me after we broke up.

 

"No, I heard that Mr./Ms. Suzune has become a member of the rescue team. How are you, Mr./Ms.?"

"Yes, I ran well today."

"It's easy to imagine that scene."

"You ran so hard that I cast a healing spell...... As a member of the group, I am delighted. Hmm? What happened? Mr./Ms. Kurumia?"

 

I tilt my head at Mr./Ms. Kurumia, who is holding back her eyes for some reason.

 

「…… Mr./Ms.'s tearful efforts brought tears to my eyes."

「?」

"The opponent is probably stronger than the Demon King! Suzune Mr./Ms.......!!"

 

What on earth are the seniors fighting against......

As he tilts his head at Kurumia Mr./Ms.'s words, Kurumia's Mr./Ms. suddenly comes up with something and smiles mischievously.

 

"Oh, and can you tell Mr./Ms. that I will be participating in this dispatch?"

"Hmm? I don't care."

"I hope this gives you a sense of urgency...... But it's Suzune's Mr./Ms.."

 

I didn't know the whole story, but I could tell that he was worried about his seniors.

For the time being, let's tell our seniors about Mr./Ms. Kurumia.
