After that hellish exercise, we drove straight back to the city and were given two days off.

It seems that the intention was to relieve the mental fatigue from the exercises, but it seems that Usato and the others also have a requirement for a reason, and immediately after leaving, he headed to the central mansion where the Demon King was.

 

"Well, it doesn't matter, but hey ......!!"

 

I was betrayed.

To that hateful healing wizard and his familiar vampires.

The sense of loss and grief that seems to have been cut out of the chest is extraordinary.

How should I get rid of this grudge ......!

 

"That outer road...... You're fooling me!"

"It's rough, Mr./Ms.."

 

As he vents his anger at Usato while flapping his legs on the bed, Nono, who looks like he is in a daze, calls out to him.

 

"Aren't you frustrated!?"

"What's that?"

"Nea was disguised as Lynn!!"

 

Why is this guy so carefree?

- Don't you have anything to say to the training that destroys that mental and physical body without question!

 

"I have Sean, so it's different."

"I was an idiot for asking you!!"

 

That's right, this guy was an idiot!

I don't trust my buddy dragon anymore.

Vina is a pervert, but Nono is a badass in another way.

 

"You don't have any worries about this squad!?"

"If I say yes, can I get out of here?"

 

When I questioned him, he gave me a very blank stare.

I'm going to shake it off, but I'm not going to talk about .......

Silence ensues, and time passes.

 

「…… He's tired."

 

Suddenly, I remembered the situation of Usato.

That monster of physical strength was unusually exhausted.

 

"Oh, is that so?"

"It's hard to tell from the looks of it, but it's definitely exhausting."

 

Since Koga knew about it, he sees it as a project requested by the Demon Lord, but it doesn't matter to me.

What I can say for sure is that he was engaged with the so-called demons.

I heard it in a conversation with Koga, so there is no doubt about it.

 

"Then we can make a perfect surprise attack now."

"Excuse me, are you insane......?"

 

I feel like I've been abused by Nono for the first time.

Is it still a bad idea?

I don't think it's going to be that easy to recover even after a day.

 

"What would you do if the surprise attack was successful?"

"It clears my mind."

「……」

 

For the first time, I feel like Nono looked at me like I was looking at an idiot.

But now, even if I receive that gaze, I feel like I have to take revenge.

That's how angry I am.

 

"But then wouldn't it be easier for Mr./Ms. Nea who was dressed as Lynn?"

「…… You can't do that."

"What, why?"

"Even though I was deceiving you, there's no way I could do something terrible to Lynn......!!"

"Excuse me, are you sick?"

 

Even though I was deceiving myself, it was thanks to Lynn, that my mind was able to keep my sanity for those ten days.

There's no way I can do anything to such ......!

In the face of my fierce conflict, Nono, who has lost interest, strikes a random wrestle.

 

"I don't think it's that wrong with the exercises, although it's karmic."

「…… That's also infuriating."

 

We were scared of demons.

There are few people who have lived in this land called Demon King Territory and do not have anything to do with demons.

That's why he understood the threat of ferocious monsters and how to deal with them.

 

"If you think about it, even if it's an exercise, at the time you're doing it in the Demon Lord's Realm, there's no way that a demon of the level that appears in the Demon Realm will come out.

 

He and Koga had completely lost their composure when they were dropped off a cliff.

…… Could it be that all that series of outrageous actions ...... for me?

 

"I didn't even expect to be forced to fight a demon of my own making...... oh, it's really stupid."

"I didn't realize it until the last minute, and I can't believe now that everyone is scared of a monster that doesn't want to be hunted down......

 

Usato's ability to do anything would be a good idea.

I think I had such a preconceived notion based on my crazy training so far.

Either way, though, we've been fooled.

 

「…… Speaking of which, what about Vina?"

"Huh? I don't think so. Where have you been?"

 

When I look around the room, I notice that Veena is not there.

I thought the room was quiet, but it was a little strange that she wasn't there at this time.

 

"Are you wandering around the streets at night......?"

"I didn't think ...... would do that."

「「……」」

 

The two of them fell silent.

In a sense, the impression that a pervert could do anything, which was different from Usato, was etched on me and Nono.

 

"I'm going to go get permission to go out for a while and I'm going to look for ......."

"I'll help you too......"

 

As expected, we can't afford to inscribe the fear of perverts on the people who live in the cities that are trying to build peace right now.

Putting aside the revenge on Usato, Nono and I decided to head to the nearby dormitory where Usato's stay to get permission to go out.

 

"Vina is quite a mystery, isn't she?"

"Well, to be honest, this is the first time I've met you."

 

We have such conversations while walking down the street at night.

Vina is so strong that I wonder where it really came from.

He says he is a former member of the 1st Corps, but if he is such a freak, he can hear rumors...... Maybe the cat was wearing it, too?

 

"Well...... I don't think he's a bad guy. It's a pervert that's hard to do."

"It's the biggest flaw when it comes to metamorphosis......

 

If you leave that out, he's basically a person you can talk to casually.

It's just that the ecstatic face he shows from time to time is ruined.

If that had been the case, Nono and I would have distanced ourselves from him by now.

 

「…… The lights are on."

"Oh, that's just right."

 

The lights on the first floor of the dormitory make it seem that someone is awake.

Usato may have already gone to bed, but I would be grateful if Hannah came out.

For the time being, I raised my hand to knock———、

 

"Then there is one condition from here."

 

I stopped the hand that was about to slap me when I heard such a voice faintly.

…… Veena's voice now?

 

"Mr./Ms. Elle, what's wrong?"

"Shhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh

 

Isn't it strange that Vina is here at this time of day?

Maybe it's something important?

…… I know it's not good, but as a colleague, I'm curious about it, so let's take a peek.

 

"I'll look in through the window."

"Uh......"

 

Away from the door, he walks along the wall of the building, approaches the window where the light leaks, and looks inside with Nono.

Beyond that, Usato, Nea, and Hannah sat at the table...... There was a figure of Veena facing each other in front of the three of them.

 

『…… What are the conditions?'

 

A somber atmosphere.

Usato, who looks somewhat wary, crosses his arms and turns his gaze towards Vina with a slight hostility.

What's going on?

Did Vina make Usato? No, I don't think you have to do a lot to make him angry in the first place......

Then, Veena gets out of her chair and sits down on the floor.

 

"Hmm?"

 

As she tilted her head at her strange behavior, she put her hands on the floor———、

 

"Please be my master!!"

 

He uttered a voice that seemed to contain his soul.

I thought I heard an auditory hallucination, as if the air was frozen.

 

『…… Wow......

 

I saw that Usato, who had wanted to hit me so much just now, looked more disgusted than ever.

Seeing his face like that, instead of lowering my sigh, Veena's behavior was so terrible that I almost sympathized with him.

 

『…… Hmm?'

 

"Oh, my God......

 

Then, after that, his eyes meet with Usato, who suddenly turns his gaze towards us.

Maybe it's a punishment for trying to snoop casually, or maybe we've gotten caught up in a ridiculous situation.

This is the moment when Usato has been the most daunting since he came to the other world.
