Kayla disappears after taking in the power of the Demon Lord.
The Demon King's power was taken away by Shea, and she herself was possessed by someone and disappeared with Rune through transfer magic.
I was able to recover the bodies of six people other than the Mr./Ms. of the Owl ...... - She was also taken away.
If you just look at the results, it was a mess.
「…… Usato, I can eat it now."
"Hmm, thank you."
We were resting around a bonfire in a place surrounded by stone buildings.
I used quite a bit of magic today......
Take a look at the surrounding scenery while eating the grilled fish on a wooden skewer received from Amako.
"A decaying city?"
After escaping from the ruins, the destination is a different city from the one you entered.
It was a little small for a city, but it was also large, and above all, there was a large building like a cathedral that served as the exit to the labyrinth.
However, the city was surrounded by dense forests, and the structure was somewhat reminiscent of Hinomoto.
We escaped to such a place and immediately joined Amako and the others who were waiting near the exit, set up a camp tent in the city, and rested.
"It was really tough today."
"Oh, absolutely."
I reply to Amako, who is sitting next to me.
Koga and his men are resting in the camp tent, and Kira, who is beside me, is sleeping wrapped in a cloak with an owl in her arms.
"I'm sure Keira is very tired."
"It's my fault that I made a mess of it, and this kid really helped me."
Bullyn is now asleep behind me and Amako on my back.
Right now, the only people who are happening here are me, Amako, and Mr./Ms. Nagi, who is sitting across the fire.
"I was just talking about it...... Does Shea have a proper consciousness as a person?"
"It's just speculation, but I think there's consciousness itself."
The beings possessing Shea are quite cautious and good at bargaining to a certain extent.
It is unlikely that she will so easily erase Sia's spirit, which will have a hostage effect on me and Mr./Ms. Nagi.
"I agree with Usato."
Mr./Ms. Nagi, who was sitting in front of the bonfire, agrees.
"The person who possesses Shea Garmio is quite calculating, and I think he is quite a nuisance at the point where he hasn't even let the Demon King and Falga-sama know about his existence until now."
「…… He seemed to know Mr./Ms. Nagi."
"At least I don't know her."
……。
"Is that Shea's personality of Mr./Ms.?"
「……」
Mr./Ms. Nagi lowers her eyes at my question.
I don't want to doubt Mr./Ms., who can be said to be a benefactor to her, but this must be confirmed at all times because the situation is the situation.
We only know about Hisago Mr./Ms. through the power of the Demon King, and that's only one aspect.
"He was a brave man in every way."
After a moment of silence, Mr./Ms. Nagi spoke.
"He was blunt and sometimes I didn't know what he was thinking, but I couldn't overlook people in need...... Above all, we will never hold innocent people hostage. More ......."
Mr./Ms. Nagi, who has said so much, presses his forehead.
He looks somewhat anguished.
"To be honest, I don't want to think that the guy who takes over a girl's body is a Hisago......
"It's desperate...... isn't it?"
"It makes me want to cry just thinking that my father, who only speaks in such a harsh way, is imitating the tone of a girl younger than me......"
"Ahaha......"
When I was smiling wryly at Mr./Ms. Nagi, who seemed to be in a serious situation, her shoulders suddenly shook and she looked up.
She looked up and her eyes were tinged with purple light.
"Shea's not Hisago herself, for the most part, I'm right."
「…… Another Mr./Ms. Nagi?"
"Ah, now I have taken my place."
She scooped up and showed the other personality that stood up, and moved next to me, who was vacant...... Sit down as if nothing had happened.
"Hmm?"
"Hmm?"
"What?"
"I just got close enough to talk to you, you don't have to worry about it."
"Oh, yes......."
Wasn't there some kind of intention?
Admittedly, it was a bit inconvenient to have a conversation across the fire.
I should have noticed.
"I was watching him with the same vision as Kannagi, even though I wasn't hostile to you, Usato...... Someone in Shea had a clear hostility towards us."
"Hostility?"
"You could call it anger, murderous intent, jealousy, and if that's all the emotion, if Kannagi would direct it at him, it's hard to imagine that Hisago's personality would direct his bad feelings toward Kannagi."
If Nagi Mr./Ms. says so much, it's safe to assume that Hisago's memories of Mr./Ms. have not come to the surface as a personality.
"Then who is that......
"I don't know about that, but there's a section over there that keeps information out. I think it's a good idea to confuse us by not revealing the nitty-gritty."
"It's really annoying......
More cunning than the devil, huh?
Better yet, be suspicious of everything she says.
「…… Well, it's time to get my personality back."
Mr./Ms. Nagi, who closed her eyes as if she had finished speaking, hurriedly supported her shoulders as she fell more on her.
She shifts her head to my shoulder and opens her eyes after a few seconds.
"——— huh!?"
"Are you okay?"
"What, Nana Nana is nothing!?"
He smiles wryly at Mr./Ms. Nagi, who got up at an amazing speed.
When he's fighting, he's reliable, but at times like this, he shows an expression appropriate for his age.
Well, I guess it's not something that I could say as a younger person.
"Kannagi, I don't think you can go on like that forever, do you?"
"I know, I know, but ......!!"
Mr./Ms. Nagi replies to Amako while holding her face with both hands.
As I watch such exchanges, I notice signs that they are quietly approaching this place.
"Mr./Ms. Veena, it's still too early for a change, right?"
"I overheard a fun conversation about taunting me."
……。
"Mr./Ms. Veena, it's still too early for a change, right?"
"Oh, that? Have you rewound time now?"
As usual, Veena Mr./Ms.'s blur with full throttle is brilliantly avoided with the through skill trained by her seniors.
This kind of thing pleases them because they react well.
A smooth conversation requires a bit of ruthlessness.
"It's just right, so I'd like to hear your opinion from Mr./Ms. Veena."
"Well, I don't have any idea......
Well, I guess so.
There seems to be some kind of cooperation with the devil when he left Mr./Ms. and the others, but he will not be sweet enough to stick his tail out there.
When I thought that I couldn't help it, Mr./Ms., who seemed to be in a hurry for some reason, opened her mouth.
"Uh, well, maybe the demon who brought us together was in touch with that noisy person named Sia behind the scenes...... Or something like that?"
"It's quite ambiguous, but when you were gathered, Veena Mr./Ms. was also there, right? Didn't it bother you?"
Mr./Ms. awkwardly looks away.
"I didn't care who collected it...... Honestly, I don't think anyone knew who got us together, right?"
「……」
"Usato, I know you're screaming, but demons are these creatures, and they really don't have a shred of camaraderie."
I knew, I should have known, but even if I looked at it again, I was more stunned than stunned by the terrible devil's too stupid gathering.
Is it because they are immortal or because they live an ephemeral way of life, in both good ...... bad ways?
"Don't worry, I'm here to serve you...... I was taught and changed."
Did you just say punish?
When I saw Mr./Ms. Veena acting suspiciously, she had a radiant smile on her face.
"I have learned to love others and share their joys, and now Mr./Ms.they are my one and only friends with whom I have shared my struggles and joys."
"Mr./Ms....... Veena, if you can change that much, it's okay for me to go back to the Lingle Kingdom."
"What? ……」
I tilt my head at Mr./Ms., who stiffens and stiffens. 「?」
"Actually, I have evil feelings towards everyone in the squad, Mr./Ms.!! More for Mr./Ms. Usato!!"
"I was a fool for looking at you even for ...... moment."
I ...... to review it rather seriously.
Well, I know very well that Mr./Ms. Vena has changed, so I won't say anything more.
"As soon as you return to the Demon King Territory, will you return to the Lingle Kingdom?"
"No, I'm sure I'll have some more time to stay, and I'm sure that time won't be spent on reporting or anything like that."
The report to the Demon King is depressing.
I couldn't recover the Demon King's power, and I couldn't rescue Shea.
The only good news is that the search for the demon realm, which is the objective of the table, seems to be successful.
"Just because there is civilization means that there is an environment where people can live, and maybe there are people like Rune who live in the depths of the forest. …… It's not my job to find out."
I'm just making a signpost, and I'm going to leave the rest to the people in the Demon Lord's Realm.
That's what Koga, Mr./Ms. Amira and Nero Mr./Ms. will do.
"Me and Kannagi will return to the Ringle Kingdom together."
"Are you okay with Kanoko Mr./Ms. yet?"
"yes, I know you're fine, and me and Kannagi have been sent away."
Looking at Mr./Ms. Nagi, she nods with a wry smile.
When I have time, I would like to go to Hinomoto again.
「…… Also, I need to bring the body to the Ringle Kingdom."
The bodies of six people other than Mr./Ms..
Their bodies, which have been touched in some way in the handling of magic, exist like dolls without decay or decay while retaining their original appearance.
Right now, I've got it in Kira's cloak, but I'll have to take it out as soon as I get back to the Demon Lord's Domain.
"Huh......"
Look at your right hand.
Now there is no gauntlet.
Accepting the fact that we have lost the cornerstone of our defense, I stare at the bonfire.
「…… I have work to do."
"Hmm? What ...... to do?"
"Now that we've lost our gauntlets, I think we should really find a way to fight that doesn't use gauntlets."
It's not like Itachi has been supporting my fight since Miarak to today.
Even if you are not aware of it, the fact that you have lost your gauntlet will create many obstacles.
In order to do so, I will once again look back at my fighting style.
"Elasticity"
Creates a bouncy magic bullet from the palm.
On top of that, try stretching the magic bullet to cover your forearm.
From the sidelines, it looks like his right arm is covered with a green membrane of healing magic...... When I tried to put my hand close to the bonfire, the heat was not transmitted
"Usato, what's that?"
"In place of the lost gauntlet, I will name it a healing coating."
「「……」」
You want to say something, Amako, Mr./Ms. Nagi.
"Wow, great sense, it's devastating for my taste!!"
Mr./Ms. is highly praised by Veena, but for some reason I don't feel like I'm being praised.
This is just a hastily prepared one.
It doesn't have the same defense as a gauntlet, and with its entire arm covered, you can't make magic bullets from your hands.
Instead, he can stick to his opponent or stick to the wall according to the blow...... I just came up with that.
For the time being, let's get by with this.
"Alright, I've decided, when I get back to the Lingle Kingdom—"
"When I get back?"
I've used magic vaguely before, and I've never had a problem with it.
However, in order to use the new technology of magic rotation, I have to look at myself more.
"I'm going to go to Mr./Ms. to teach you how to handle magic."
"I feel sorry for the poor Mr./Ms., so please stop ......."
Why can you stop me when I'm just going to ...... teach?
In the first place, I have to go because I have been called for the application of magic spinning.
