- No one has welcomed the hero who appeared in the guest seat with pleasure.

Everyone looked at Nito, remembered the game earlier, and turned away.

But I was only thinking about the three of them, without worrying about them.

Fear, and discomfort dominate the venue.

It's all against me.

I don't know why, but I feel like I can sense something called 'emotion' more realistically than I did earlier.

Everyone looks at me with their eyes down, even as I walk in the guest seat.

But some of them were "scared of nothing”.

'That sucks, isn't it? That's not a hero or anything! You're just a thief!

"Lowest!

"Would you normally go that far?!

"I didn't know he was such an Icarletta guy?!

Cursing gossip. And slander.

All I could hear was an insult to me.

But I don't want to kill you.

I don't know why, but I can't even move my fingers when those voices are heard enough for me to even understand what they mean, as if they're not my own body.

I checked my arm as I walked.

……

But it works.

I know, as much as it works properly.

But my body doesn't move.

The body does not go in the direction of 'killing'.

It's easy to get rid of these people.

Just wave your arm and you'll be able to kill the guy around you, too.

But it can't be that simple.

I'm not motivated by the horn.

I'm not guilty of killing too many things earlier.

I'd rather feel sunny in that sense.

My body is light, as if something that was caught in my teeth had been removed.

But I'm not motivated.

I'm not weak, but I'm not motivated.

With that said, I feel like I did when I killed Ariez.

"Nito!"

That's when Toa's voice sounded.

When I found out, I even came to the three waiting seats.

Then the people around me watched Toa calling my name.

Everywhere is only malicious.

All we have here now is malice.

"All three of you, was there anything while I was gone?

I ask as I head to my seat to be heard around.

"Something? What do you mean?

"No... it's fine if there's nothing. But you're gonna tell me then, right? 'Cause I'm gonna kill you right away."

To this mysterious exchange, Toa said, 'Huh?' I get a look, like before, somewhat sad.

And he raised his mouth angle to such an extent that he didn't want to be enlightened about it that it wasn't clearer than a bitter laugh, creating an unnatural grin.

But only Suphilia seemed to know.

Because Nem and Toa are normal, whereas only Suphilia was obviously relegated to killing around.

No. Is that disgust? Anyway, I feel anger for those around me.

"Sufilia, don't worry about it. The usual."

When I said that, Sufilia snorted gently with a nickel and a smile "yes" after a much more surprising look.

I'm going to take a seat and spend the time there until the next game.

"Hey Nito, why are you doing that?

"You don't have to tell me, you know. Eliminating corruption."

"That's..."

"No, those guys don't matter. It's simply my story."

What Toa cares about is' The Heart of the Dragon '.

He had a slightly worried look because I made the expression "elimination of corruption".

Then the name of me and Kyoko appeared in the demon light poster version.

But I still can't hear the announcement.

And...

"... hmm?

That was when I somehow shifted my gaze around.

Suddenly one of them saw something like a black shadow.

I wondered if it was rubbish on me, and I rubbed my eyes and looked at it again.

Then it was till the next one that was beside him.

The shadow gradually spreads, and from it begins to see a black shadow slowly drifting up from the body of all who can see it.

It is not only those who look far away.

Even those behind me bear the same shadow.

And when I realized, the entire venue was covered with black shadows.

"Dear Nito, what is it?

"No... more than that, guys, can you see this?

I ask looking at the black shadows that are spreading throughout the venue.

"What is this?

But Toa's response was like that.

"I'm talking about this black cunt."

"What the hell are you talking about?

Then Sufilia was following my gaze with a question mark floating.

"Your husband?

Apparently, he doesn't even look like Nem.

End of worrying for some reason.

All three of you don't understand what I'm saying.

This strange sight that I see is not visible to the three of us.

So, I just realized that the three of us haven't got any.

And I looked over to another place, and there were others who were not.

Is that... a beast man?

Lizard-like tails grow.

And then that's... human?... No... I have dog-like ears growing on my head.

What's this all about?

Some of them are without black shadows.

And I feel like most of them are beasts.

But among the shadowy there is a proper figure of the beast man.

Some are human but without shadows.

What's this all about?

But I can predict.

In these cases, the main cause is the 'abyss'.

Perhaps there was another change in me.

At first, I could feel the emotions.

And secondly, this black shadow.

There must be some point in this, too.

What if this black shadow is an emotion? No, I don't have enough information to give an answer.

But I'm pretty sure it's in there, watching something.

"... it's hard to tell."

Then the broadcast went on.

- 'I'll start an extra game with this. Nito and Kyoko are invited to the field.'

Apparently, there's no troublesome admission this time.

He suddenly asked me to come to the field, not to the pantry.

"This is the last time..."

Honestly, I already feel like I've done it in a war with Saab.

There's nothing more to show in this farce.

It's over again appropriately.

"Well, I'm just gonna go,"

"Yeah......"

"I'm here for you"

I stroke Nem's head like a snake looking up.

Then he leaped across the wall and down to the field with Nem blushing his cheeks as he tickled.

In the same way, Kyoko shows himself from the guest seat.

Kyoko was smiling when he saw me.

I don't know what you're thinking.

But I don't feel bad from this guy.

And I can't even see the black shadow.

What the hell is this all about? It's something that's going to come out of these guys, but what's the difference?

We went into the field with each other, and we confronted each other.

Then the rules of the game begin to be explained.

"That was... that was an interesting speech, right?

In the meantime, Kyoko suddenly spoke to me.

"No, I'm just kidding."

I won't leave any room, I'll respond appropriately.

"I wonder?

……

He stinks.

What are you trying to say to me?

"You were obviously a bee, weren't you? He was a killer, and if that grandfather hadn't been in there to stop him, wouldn't he have killed you, Saab?

Think of what you're going to say...

"Stupid, there's no way I'm going to kill Saab, is there? I'm just pointing it out for future school operations."

"Isn't it impossible for a boulder? I don't think there's anyone in this room who believes that excuse, not just me?

"I denied it. After that, do as you please, we don't have time to hang out with the whole masses"

Then Kyoko was laughing at my response to what was wrong.

"Come on, by the way? You look different earlier, don't you? Is something wrong?

"What?"

I can't stop asking the next question. He's a chatty guy.

I had seen him a few times when I was in Japan, but I didn't think he was such a chatty guy.

"I don't know because I'm masking it. Come on? Obviously, you're more killer than you were when you were dealing with Uncle Sabu."

"Killing?......"

"Yeah. You - you killed someone?

……

"... what?

"Something feels that way - right after you kill him. Come on? It stinks, right?

"Stinky?

"Is that it? Don't you understand? S-rank adventurers would know, wouldn't they? You've been killing me scattered before, haven't you? People, monsters. Come on?

This guy's the kind of adventurer who's been in this world the whole time, isn't he?

You're just an amateur who learned the magic of doodling in a greenhouse, just like Saabs, right?

I said it is... smells? What's that?

"Something looks serious, huh?

"Serious? What do you mean?

"Well, I just said it appropriately, didn't I?

This guy...

"But I also know you're angry. This world is filthy."

"... right"

I want you to start the game soon.

"I have a lot of free time, too. There's no one as strong as you in this school. So for once, I thought I'd attack that old man. And then you thought you'd fight me with a bee, right? But he doesn't show any gaps at all ~. So I went around looking for other guys, like VIP seats or something. Then their conversation's too guessy. Come on! I laughed!

With that said, Kyoko was alone, laughing with pleasure.

Honestly, there's more to bullshit about, like, circling VIP seats.

That room is off-limits except for those involved, and the more guards are placed on either side of the door outside the room, the tighter the security.

And there's only one entrance.

Even if I could be transparent, I wouldn't be able to get in.

"Haha... you don't believe me, do you?

"No, not like that..."

"Do you say benevolence? I'm delivering it to the school side because I'm a" fighter, "but that's not all, actually."

"... I see"

Apparently this guy wants to chat with me more than fight.

Then Kyoko had a nigga and a small grin.

"Me. Come on, you got two professions, right?

――――

"What?"

"So if there are two professions,"

... two professions?

What's this all about?

What is not one profession per person?

"Is that it? Did you eat it? That's surprising. I thought your class of magicians would know, but maybe you wouldn't?

Kyoko, more and more, grinned as he was on track.

"Hey, I want to ask you, come on? How much do you feel about my magic now?

Then the rules were explained.

Is it time?

"It's about time"

Answer the question.

"The game will begin, won't it?

"It's nothing, you're not gonna take it seriously anyway, are you?

"Depends"

"In my case?

"As far as you're concerned, you'd accidentally kill him, wouldn't you?

"Bye..."

Then the look on Kyoko's face changes.

There was something cunning there, different from the delightful look of it until then.

And - at the same time, suddenly the magic power of Kyoko has risen dramatically.

Not a slight difference.

It swelled up almost twice as much.

"I see..."

So Kyoko read something from my expression?

"Don't you understand when you cover up with your skills, too, boulder?

"Covered up with skills?

"Don't you know? I told you earlier, didn't I? I have two professions." Combatant "and" Assassin ", this is my profession. And the assassin's skill 'Cover-up'. This is a cover so they don't know their magic and their level, right? Right... don't you know..."

Kyoto that speaks in a deliberately pungent way.

I don't care about this guy's provocation.

You think it's more of a cover than that? Can you hide the magic?

Skills that seem convenient inside.

So all of a sudden the magic jumped... if you try again, isn't it inside? Bigger than a single article.

What would happen if I used it?

It lowers the magic beyond sense, so can you, for example, encourage your surroundings to sense magic?

"That's enough to say S-rank, so you've been an adventurer for a long time, haven't you? And you don't know the skills of an assassin?

……

What does this guy have to say to me just now?

Are you provoking me because you want me to be serious?

Somehow, but I don't think so.

So I've been trying to read emotions and intentions for a while now... I can't read them.

"Me, come on - Saab and I have been together since middle school. We weren't that close, but we weren't talking at all, were we? Kind of like a rotten edge, huh? I don't know what he thinks because of the similarities."

Kyoko changes the story abruptly and speaks out again at an earlier pace.

"For example, with the type of person he hates? More like someone who's gonna hate him."

……

At that time, I was somewhat in danger of not being able to explain this conversation to myself.

Without realizing who it is, the story of Kyoto continues.

"I see... is that right..."

At that time, the moderator signaled the start of the match.

"You. Come on? Honestly, the words are too much, aren't they? There's no way anyone's gonna be mad about that, is there? Isn't it normal to think that? Especially since you're an S-rank adventurer who attacked a dungeon, so you're called a hero, right? Then I guess I'll just feel uncomfortable now, won't I?

“You"... Kyoko suddenly changed the nuances of his words.

Talk in a tone of diminished distance.

Then, against those of us who don't start the game inside, Yaji starts flying from the venue.

But Kyoko didn't change one expression, he kept staring me straight in the eye, and he wouldn't stop talking.

"I don't know... when I first heard your rumors, it wasn't like a millimeter didn't doubt that, was it? 'Cause I don't know if you were under-recognized, but until then, they didn't know anyone had adventurer nito, did they? That's supposed to be, like, a few months ago, when you signed up for an adventurer on the guild, right? It was in the diabolical correspondence. Then you returned the empire and were called a Razhausen hero. It's been a while since we came to this world, hasn't it? That's a healer, isn't it? Just to be clear, you're only uncomfortable, or you're talking too much."

"Shall we start the game? And let's just finish this crap tournament."

"I've never heard of a healer being able to do it as an adventurer. Even Greyberg teachers used healers as a seed for laughter, and no adventurer or traveling magician I've ever met said anything else about healers being an unusual being that can't even use attack magic. But facts are facts. Healers defeated S-rank monsters and even attacked the dungeon. This fact remains unchanged. I don't know much about the dungeon, but I do know how many challengers died, and that's all I need to know. I know you're crazy."

Then, at the same time that I had uttered my last words, the figure of Kyoko disappeared.

But I can see this guy moving.

"Boulder!"

Kyoko delighted to be cut off.

With that voice, a kick flew out of my back.

I look back in no hurry, kick ass.

"I'm not like Saab, am I?“ Hitachi kun "…"
