The morning training in the Demon King City of Verhazar had become almost a daily routine.

Running through a city with few people, and having them lightly join hands with Mr./Ms. Nero, who is training at the training ground ahead.

Training with Mr./Ms. Nero, who is a superior player, is Mr./Ms. lot to learn.

From the way he fights, to the application of magic manipulation, to the sensory movements in battle, he reminds me of what I am lacking through actual combat.

And, oddly enough, this morning training often has unexpected participants.

 

"That!!"

 

A torrent of flames swirling and approaching.

Facing it approaching with heat, I thrust out my right arm wrapped in a gauntlet and unleashed a healing magic bursting palm.

The flames are blocked by the wall of the shockwave——— and immediately after that, Mr./Ms. Amira slashes at her with a wooden sword in her hand, cutting through the flames and the shockwave.

 

"Huh!!"

"Whew!"

 

He deflects a series of slashes from the first blow with a gauntlet, and also unleashes his left fist.

However, his opponent is a talented player on par with Koga.

While responding without leaving a distance, we will constantly exchange attacks and defenses.

 

"This isn't a training you do in the morning, is it?!"

"You'll be fine!" Deal with the frustration!!"

"What a nonsense!"

 

I just fought the devil yesterday.

It's not the first time Mr./Ms. has shown up for early morning training.

He usually comes in about once every five or three days, and Mr./Ms. and I join hands with Nero.

 

"Is there something disgusting about venting your frustration?"

"No, it's all paperwork that dulls my arms, and if I'm simply not moving, I'm going to get frustrated."

"I see......

 

Now, Mr./Ms. is not a soldier of the Demon King's army, but works for the people of the Demon Tribe.

I understand that this person is a martial person, so I guess he is relieving stress at this opportunity.

As for me, I have no complaints because working with her is fruitful.

 

"You don't have to keep your distance!"

"I prefer close-range combat to medium-range combat."

"It's simple and clear......!!"

 

Otherwise, you wouldn't use a sword!

Most opponents can get away with fire magic, so it's easy to think that mid-range fights are threatening, but this person is strong enough to deal with the movements of his seniors normally, and since he is a disciple of Nero Mr./Ms., he is also quite strong even with a sword.

Therefore, it is difficult to keep a distance by ordinary means...... Whew!!

 

"Uh-huh."

 

He raises his right fist and pretends to attack Mr./Ms. Amira and slams his fist into the ground.

 

"Healing Instant Fist!!"

"Huh!?"

 

At the same time as hitting the ground, it explodes its magical power and creates a cloud of dust.

Okay, in this gap--,

 

"Oh my gosh!!"

「!」

 

Flames are released at a distance of about 5 meters.

A shockwave could bring you into the same situation as before.

If......!!

Move the elasticity to the right foot with a magic turn!

He kicks the ground, swings his legs vigorously, and releases the magic power that he has wrapped around his right foot forward.

 

"Healing elastic waves!"

 

The magic bullet containing the elasticity released with the kick turns into a crescent moon, splitting the flame in half and heading towards Mr./Ms..

It catches Mr./Ms. off guard, who was about to charge at her, but is easily cut apart.

 

"Interesting! Show more skills!!"

"If you want!!"

 

Was the power attenuated by the flames?

- However, it is a good technique! !! Along with Mr./Ms.'s charge, I also attack.

 

"Healing Breakdown"

"Whew."

 

In between attacks, he releases a wave of healing magic that dulls Mr./Ms.'s senses.

He tries to take advantage of the gap and launch an attack, but he is forced to retreat from her with flames.

 

"After all, flames are troublesome."

"It's a strange trick no matter how many times you take it. I didn't expect it to be so out of ......."

 

You can ignore it to some extent, but this is just a hand-me-down.

Mr./Ms. Amira does not use the technique of wearing flaming armor.

 

"Next time, I'll ...... with a healing afterimage fist!!"

"We're not done yet......!!"

 

Now that my body has warmed up a lot, let's apply more techniques.

With that in mind, just as I and Mr./Ms. were about to jump out--a shadow suddenly broke in between and saw my fist and Amira Ms./Ms.'s flame-covered wooden sword.unarmed・・I grabbed it with.

 

"It's time to stop, you guys."

"Master!?"

"Mr./Ms. Nero!?"

 

Nero Mr./Ms., the blonde demon who had been watching this arrangement for a long time, looked at me and Mr./Ms. Amira with a slightly stunned look and sighed.

 

"It's too hot, are you going to destroy the training grounds?"

"No, I think it's Mr./Ms.'s fault!!"

"What! You're the only one who evades responsibility, it's cowardly!!"

 

My technique basically doesn't have a lot of destructive power!

Even if there is, it is only explosive shells, so it can be said that it is not complicit in the destruction of the training ground!

Mr./Ms. Amira looks betrayed, but Mr./Ms. Nero sighs again and points in a certain direction.

 

"What are you talking about with a hole in the training ground?"

「……」

 

The ground that had caused the sand smoke from the healing instant fist earlier was crushed, to say the least.

 

"I'll fix it......

"Huh, because only one person is trying to escape."

"Armira, you scorched the ground of the training ground."

"Hi ......"

 

After that, Mr./Ms. and I leveled the ground of the training ground with a shovel.

Frankly, it's not the first time I've done something like this, so I'm scared that I'm getting used to it.

After about ten minutes of work, we decided to take a break and have a small chat at the edge of the training ground.

 

"And one of the people who came to the squad was actually a demon and a pervert."

"Hmm."

"Master!?︎ Shouldn't that be done with a wrestle!?︎"

 

Mr./Ms. nodded unfazed in the slightest, and Mr./Ms. Amira, who was drinking water from a water bottle, gave her a loud shout.

She immediately looks at me and points a finger at me.

 

"Hey, why is there a demon in your place, did you report it to the Demon King?"

"Oh, I think I'll go after this."

"You should go faster!" If you say the devil, it must be the enemy force at the moment!?"

 

This is a valid argument.

But it's not like it's an emergency.

When I asked Nea to check on me in the morning, I heard that she was sleeping in the dormitory normally.

…… For some reason, he was thrown out of the room.

 

"I wonder if the Demon King will forgive me."

"Well, I'm sure he'll forgive you."

"Oooh...... I can't come out strong against this guy because of my mentor......!!"

 

In the first place, the Demon King was aware of Mr./Ms.'s existence.

It is possible that he came to check on the training, and it is also possible that the matter until Mr./Ms. was discovered to be a demon was also in the palm of that person.

 

"Because if I report this, that person will definitely burst out laughing, and I can't stand it more than anything in the world to make that person laugh at me."

「…… Whew."

"What's wrong, Nero Mr./Ms.......!!"

"Usato, don't bite your master!!"

 

Mr./Ms. stops me from standing up and trying to eat.

Even if it's a superior opponent, I'll do my best to ......!

 

"No, I'm sorry, your situation is too interesting."

"Was the master able to laugh in the first place?"

"This guy laughs a lot."

「……」

"Um, why did you hit me just now? It hurts a lot."

 

He is one of the most talented people in the Demon King Army, and his strength is also extraordinary.

It's strong enough to break through my biceps normally.

 

"I can't stand the fact that you know your master better than me, ...... apprentice!!"

"No, no, I think he just thought that he couldn't smile in front of his apprentice Mr./Ms., right?"

「…… How did you know?"

 

He is also shouldered by Mr./Ms. Amira.

In the process of putting their hands together, I realized that this person was surprisingly expressive.

He also knew that he was clumsy in relationships in a different direction from Rose.

 

"Mr./Ms. Amira wasn't there in the first place, so I don't know."

"What...... you want?"

"I ...... the shock when someone worse than my seniors appears."

"Is there more than that......?"

 

From Mr./Ms.'s point of view, it seems that the seniors were considerable.

No, what should I really do, Veena Mr./Ms.?

Should I be a familiar...... I don't know what it is, but I don't want to do that for my mental health.......

 

"The devil...... He tried to become my servant as a condition of cooperating with me ......."

「…… Whew."

"What's wrong, Nero Mr./Ms.......!!"

"I saw this exchange earlier!?"

 

Repeating the same exchange as before, I return to my original position.

Mr./Ms. seems to be very tired, but what happened?

No, I have no idea.

 

"Oh, by the way, Mr./Ms. Aamira."

"What?"

"I'm late to tell you, but Mr./Ms. is here here, so why don't you meet him?"

「…… Well, the guy who fought in Hinomoto."

 

I had heard that he fought with Hinomoto, so I thought it would be a good idea to talk about it.

I had heard that it was a fierce battle, but Mr./Ms. Alc also seemed to be somewhat satisfied, so maybe he had something to think about.

 

"Well, let's meet once."

 

Mr./Ms. nodded and looked up at the sky.

…… It's time to go back.

 

"Haha, I have to go see the Demon King after this, don't be laughed at again......"

「…… Whew."

"What's wrong, Nero Mr./Ms.......!!"

"You already know what you're doing, aren't you?!" Don't make a bad joke about the master!?"

 

Somehow, I've become friends with Nero Mr./Ms. and Mr./Ms. Armira.

I think it was worth coming to this city for this kind of thing.

 

●

 

After finishing a bit of intense training in the morning, I went back to the dormitory and had breakfast, etc., and decided to take Nea and Mr./Ms. to the mansion where the Demon King was.

 

"Hahahahaha, how can you betray my expectations so much? Are you trying to kill me by twisting my belly?"

"Veena, hit the Demon Lord."

"Oh, no, that's right...... Eh, eh, ......!!"

"Calm down, Usato, don't go Veena either."

 

He sighs as he looks at Mr./Ms. Veena hesitantly trying to head towards the Demon King.

I've been aware of it, but I tend to get upset when I'm fueled by the Demon Lord.

There was the Demon King, his handmaiden Ciel, Mr./Ms. me, Nea in an owl state, and Mr./Ms. Veena in the form of a demon, and the Demon King looked at the Mr./Ms. Vena with interest.

 

"Alright, what kind of soul did you have to sneak into this guy's squad, ...... what are the details of me and Usato's information and magic cycles?"

My Mr./Ms. were so scared of the magic sense that I was sent there because I was the least motivated of the group."

"Well, why did you bother to reveal your identity?"

 

The smirking Demon King asked, and Mr./Ms. Vina pointed at me with her hand.

 

"I want this person to be my master."

"It's too funny, this devil isn't lying, is he? What are you really? It's hard not to laugh at this."

"Mr./Ms. Usato, aren't you attracting too many weird people......?"

 

Ciel Mr./Ms. looks at him sympathetically, but the Demon King is too out of the question.

In the first place, I don't understand why I'm certified as de S by Veena Mr./Ms.'s standards, and the true de S will be right in front of me.

 

"You don't know much, do you?"

"Yes, we are the devil."

"It's rare for you to form a clique, and you seem to be quite an oddity in the fact that if you are weak, you will kill them at once."

"There were a lot of things I thought about while I was sealed."

 

The more I learned, the more I thought the demon race was distorted.

I know that Mr./Ms. is particularly funny, but it also seems strange when the rest of us don't feel a sense of camaraderie.

 

"But it's a good situation to have the devil on this side."

"How do you treat Mr./Ms. Veena?"

"Hmm......"

 

The demon lord puts his hand to his chin and thinks about my question.

 

"At this point, I don't recommend using this demon as a demon."

"Why do I have to use this person as a messenger?"

"Eh, you tried to deny it with a smile ......."

 

Mr./Ms. seemed to pull me back when I said it lightly.

As for familiars, I think it's better not to put aside likes and dislikes. From my point of view, it seems that there is a problem with bringing the devil with him.

 

"Oh, that's ......, but that's ...... for such rough treatment."

 

Is this person invincible ......?

Why are you squeamish? I'll pull it.

 

"Now that the existence of the devil is simply seen as a threat, it is dangerous to take this guy as a demon...... You seem to know that."

"Yes, so is it okay for Mr./Ms. Veena to keep an eye on you?"

"What?"

 

Mr./Ms. Vina looks back with a voice that was taken aback by my words.

 

"I guess that's all there is to it for now."

"What? Oh, that, Mr./Ms. Usato?"

"Mr./Ms. Veena"

 

I talk to her as gently as possible with a puzzled expression.

 

"It doesn't matter if you're a master or anything like that, you're my subordinate in the first place, and that's enough, isn't it?"

"Well, it's not enough......

「……?」

"Oh, that's enough......

 

"Hey, Ciel, you gave the devil to his knees with a silent smile."

"He seems desperate, too......

 

...... nodded.

If I had been forced to follow him, I would have been in trouble.

For the time being, Mr./Ms. was to be monitored by the Demon King's magic.

But the surveillance is not so strict, and you can put them in the dormitory and train them normally.

 

「…… Ugh...... It's something different......

 

For some reason, he doesn't seem to be very convinced.

___________________________________________

It was Amira who was unexpectedly taunted by Nero and Usato, who were surprisingly good-natured.

 

Veena said, "It's not what I expected, but this kind of treatment isn't so bad, it's rather good......." I was thinking about it in an instant.
