There were so many things, but I managed to clear everything I had to do today, so I decided to head to the dormitory that had been prepared for me.
At that time, he also moved Bulllin, who had been deposited near the entrance of the city, to a stable near the dormitory, but he began to attract much more attention from the demon people than he had at the beginning.
Somehow, there are ridiculous rumors flying around that it is a flying demon and that humans are flying creatures...... Yep, time will tell. Probably.
"I'm glad Mr./Ms. Alc is here......
"Haha, that's an exaggeration."
The quarters were divided into two kingdoms, the kingdom of Lingle and the kingdom of Nirvarna.
Basically, we make our own dinner, so we left the cooking to Mr./Ms. Alc as we did on previous trips, and we sat down at the table and waited until dinner arrived.
"Well, it's the first day of the Demon Lord's Domain, and it's been hard. Usato-dono."
Mr./Ms. Kurumia, who was sitting in the seat in front of her, said so and smiled wryly.
No, I'm really sorry for the inconvenience caused to Mr./Ms..
"As I had heard, there is always something called 'Ibento' or 'Wandering' around Lord Usato...... That's exactly what Mr./Ms. said."
"It's too true, so I can't deny ......."
Or rather, what are you infusing Mr./Ms. with your senior?
"It was more of a burden from my relatives than from the Demon Lord's Domain."
"Ahaha, Nirvarna's was too unexpected for us."
For the time being, Senri-sama's problem is ...... For the time being, it should have been manageable.
I didn't want to deceive her as much as possible, but I'll leave her to Koga, who has escaped.
"I'm sorry Nea."
"No...... I'm not angry, but ....... When it comes time to beat me, that's it. It's too shocking."
"Hahaha, so you're a son."
「…… No, it's not my son. I'll get your blood later."
"I don't mind that."
"Then I'll give you about two liters."
I put my hand on my chin to Nea, who smiles nicely.
"If you drink that much, you'll get sick to your stomach, won't you?"
"I'm just kidding, but you didn't say anything about being implicitly drawn two liters of blood, ......?"
He's always in the form of an owl, so sometimes you almost forget that Nea is a vampire.
Incidentally, he is also a necromancer.
"What about Mr./Ms. Uluru? Come to the city where the demon tribe is."
When I called out to her who was sitting next to me, she returned to me, who was somewhat absent-minded.
"Oh, I'm sorry, I was a little dazed."
"Are you okay? If you're tired, you'd better rest."
"No, no, I was just wondering if your brother was going to be okay."
Do you mean Mr./Ms. Olga?
It's my family, so I'm worried about .......
"Mr./Ms. Olga has a knack, so it's okay."
「…… Yeah. yes, I have to focus on myself."
I nodded to Mr./Ms., who brightened her expression slightly.
"How did you come here?"
"Yes."
"Well, I think it's going to be okay, and for now it looks like I can get on with it normally. Is it because everyone was just watching Usato-kun?"
"Ah......"
The sky is flying.
I don't blame anyone for this, but I feel like it had a tremendous impact from the start.
"Usato-kun, what are you going to do tomorrow?"
"Basically, we will be on standby unless requested by the Demon King, but tomorrow we will go to see off all the knights sent from the Ringle Kingdom before us, Mr./Ms.."
Formally, it's like they're going to replace us.
Other than that, I haven't decided yet, but .......
"The Demon King has asked me to interact with the Demon Tribe, so I think I'll go outside, and I'll also go see Keira's guardians."
"Keira's?"
"They asked me to meet them, but I also wanted to show up."
I have to apologize for hiding my identity when I met him.
I want to check the leg that was actually injured.
Also, it's a good idea to go see the men of the expedition team.
The Demon King said that he would recruit recruits, but the original members are probably Koga's subordinates.
His subordinates must be elite, so I'm curious to see how much they can "do".
"Hey, what did Usato do to Kira-chan?"
"It's a really bad way to say it."
"Haha, that's not what I meant, I thought you were really adored."
Oh, that's what ...... mean.
"Mr./Ms., thank you for waiting."
"Thank you, Mr./Ms. Alc."
It seems that Mr./Ms.'s dish is ready.
The food eaten here is the same as the ingredients eaten by the demon people in the Demon Kingdom.
Although it is deliciously cooked by Mr./Ms. Alc, the amount of ingredients used is not large.
「…… Mr./Ms. Alc is also there, and do you want to talk while eating?"
A dark wizard named Kira meets Mr./Ms. Gref.
A battle that transcends dimensions and time, and the first encounter with the Demon King, which took place at the place of the decisive battle between the Demon King and the previous hero.
While recounting the events, the night slowly passes.
●
After dinner, I wiped my body with warm water and a hand towel and changed my clothes, and while checking my luggage again in my room, I wrote down what I should do in the notebook I had brought with me.
Anyway, there are a lot of things that need to be done.
It seems that the Demon King has a lot of requests for me, so I have to be enthusiastic.
「…… Okay."
I folded the notebook and put it back in my bag, and sat on the bed to practice my magic power.
Quickly, smoothly, and complexly, the magic circulates from the center of the chest ——— the heart to the entire body.
"What's next......
Crush the magic bullet created in the palm and sense the magic power.
A technique that senses the presence of living beings and moving objects within range.
It's a way to counter the demons that disappear, so you definitely have to practice this.
"Hmm? Do you need to crush the magic bullet in the first place?"
I do it every time, but it's quite a gap, so why not change the way I do it......?
"Magic doesn't just come from the hands, then ......."
It's just a matter of releasing it from ...... whole body!
The method has already been assimilated with Ferm and experienced in the senior Thunder Beast mode.
There's no reason why it can't ......!
"Nmm...... No, no, no......!!"
I tried to radiate magic power from the upper body in terms of image, but I could see that the magic power was being chipped away at a tremendous rate.
I'll try to stop the radiation right away, but this isn't really practical.
"Well, I thought it was a good idea."
My magic power is too consumed as it is.
Or do you shoot it like a ripple like sonar? It's still better, but it still uses more magic than normal.
"Come to think of it, system enhancement is a technique that increases the concentration of magical power...... isn't it?"
By infusing magical power, its concentration is increased and its effect is increased.
That is the strengthening of the system.
So why not do the opposite?
Wrap healing magic in your palm and focus your consciousness.
「……」
If system reinforcement is an image of making light darker and stronger, this is like making light thinner and weaker.
The magic power is intact.
Thinly.
Be more transparent.
As I thought about it, the green color reminiscent of emerald gradually faded.
In terms of color, does it feel like it's one step thinner than Nak's healing magic?
「…… It's easier than you think."
Let's do the same as before.
"Hmmm."
It radiates out diluted magical energy.
The space is filled with a thin light of healing magic.
Although it consumes more magical power, it is much less than before.
"If I had to name it, it would be a system degradation."
By deliberately lowering the quality of healing magic, you can reduce the consumption of magic power and keep it in a more open state.
As I was taking a short breath, someone suddenly knocked on the door of my room.
"Yes? Hmm? Nea, what's wrong?"
When I opened the door, there was Nair with her arms crossed, looking up at me with gittery eyes.
What?
"Hey Usato, there's some magic coming to the next room."
"Oh, I'm sorry, I can now develop a new technology that is second only to magic power spinning."
"I don't mind it...... yes?"
I wonder if the magic has gone through the gaps in the walls?
Even though it's healing magic, you've done something wrong.
"I'm going to hold it down this time.
"No, wait a minute!!"
When I tried to close the door, my foot was inserted into the gap in the door.
"You're not doing anything weird again, are you?!"
"It's different this time, I wonder if we can do the reverse of the system strengthening."
"Huh? I should be able to do something, but——"
"No, I did."
Then Nea holds her head.
"I'm not surprised because I'm used to it. I'm used to it, so I'm not surprised......!"
"What are you mumbling about?"
"Hey, show me that skill......!"
I don't mind.
When he opens the door and tries to let her into the room, Mr./Ms. Arc comes from the back of the hallway.
"Usato-dono, it was just right."
"Yes? Mr./Ms. Alc, what did you do?"
"Hannah is coming to visit."
Mr./Ms. Hannah?
Is it about tomorrow's plans or something?
"Nea, can I show you my skills later?"
"I can't help it...... Then I'll wait for you in your room."
Nea walks into my room without hesitation with a somewhat unconvincing face.
"Did something happen?"
"No, I thought of a new trick and got grumpy."
"Haha, after all, Lord Usato, hasn't changed...... Oh, Lady Hannah is waiting for you below."
"I understand."
I said goodbye to Mr./Ms. and went downstairs alone.
Mr./Ms. is standing in the doorway, looking a little tired, and when she notices me, she sighs.
"Mr./Ms. Hannah? What's going on?"
"No, there was something I forgot to tell you, so I thought I'd tell you today."
"Yes? Oh, it's one thing to stand and speak, and you can sit down."
Let me lead you to a table and then talk to you.
"First of all, where I live is right next to this dormitory."
"Oh, really?"
"yes, it's a great coincidence, it's almost as if it was decided from the beginning that I was going to be his assistant."
I was given a very shadowy smile.
…… I wonder if it was orchestrated by the Demon Lord?
"If you do something outside, report it to me or I'll accompany you, so please come and tell me."
"Got it."
I wonder if he also doubles as a watchdog rather than an assistant?
No, in the case of the Demon King, it seems interesting to have him team up with me.
"So, what should I do during morning training?"
"Huh? Training?"
"I thought I'd run in, and I could grasp the structure of the city, so I thought it would be just right."
I've only seen the cityscape from the air, so I'll have to run and see it for myself first.
"What time are you going to run?"
…… Well let's see.
"The sun just came up."
"No, I'm sleeping normally, so please don't come, right......? It's okay if you just run. …… Oh, don't do anything weird, okay?"
I know what happens when I run with Bulllin on my back.
I know this isn't the Ringle Kingdom.
"Don't worry, I'm just going to run......!"
"What should I do, I don't feel safe at all......"
How much I don't trust you.
However, if the credibility is low at first, the rest will only increase.
Hanging out with Mr./Ms. is probably part of the task of deepening the friendship that the Demon King mentioned, so I have to do my best to earn her trust.
