"What? It's already this late. ......

Mizuki, the witch, greeted the late morning as she stretched her body.

She's not the type of person who always wakes up early, but today it took her an inordinate amount of time to wake up.

In a few more hours, it would be evening.

I felt like I'd wasted a little time, but I thought better of it and slipped out from under the covers.

I forgot to clean up .......

Mizuki had just woken up and her eyes were filled with the books and tools she had left out yesterday.

Remembering herself from yesterday, she thought she was working on medicine.

Why didn't you even clean up - Mizuki scolded herself in her head for yesterday.

Because of that, I have to clean up now.

If left unattended too long, it will turn into poison, so it needs to be dealt with as soon as possible.

............ We'll clean up a little later. I need to eat.

Mizuki put one of the disparate books back on the shelf, sighed, and headed for the stairs.

I can't be bothered with cleaning in the morning.

Even though it turns into a poison, it's not a time-consuming task because it's only dangerous if it gets inside your body.

I'm sure my self will take care of it before I go to bed today.

More importantly, I need to take care of my hunger.

With that excuse, Mizuki arrived at the pantry on the first floor.

There's only peaches and figs," she said. I've got to go buy some canned goods.

Of the two types of canned goods, Mizuki ended up picking up the peaches.

Since she hadn't gone shopping for a while, she only had enough food for a few more days.

All the troublesome things piled up in the morning.

I thought, "Maybe I'll make today a shopping day.

When I was thinking about that.

"What?

The glass shattered, and a slightly larger bat flew into the room.

In front of the surprised Mizuki, a letter was delivered.

It seems to have been brought by this bat.

And then.

After confirming that Mizuki had taken the letter, the bat disappeared with a poof, as if it had done its job.

In all my life, I have never experienced receiving a letter like this.

If it was a letter from the human world, it should have been delivered to the mailbox as usual.

I'm not sure what to make of it.

I'm not sure what to make of it. You'd better be careful. Whether to flee or fight is up to you. From Aria, the Demon King.

There it is.

I'm not sure what to do, but I'm going to do it.

The Demon King's army from the south is coming with all of them?

Will Aria and the others come to my rescue?

Why was I being targeted in the first place?

There were countless questions that I wanted to ask back.

However, I can't ask them back because it's a ruthless letter.

The only thing I can do now is to prepare to either run away or fight, just like I was told.

What should I do? ...... Should I run away?

I'm not sure what to make of this.

There was the option of fighting, but that was not to her liking.

Aria might say she was pathetic, but she didn't have the time to worry about that.

Anyway, she had to start moving.

With that in mind, Mizuki began to take action.

But...

"What?

Mizuki's house shook unsteadily as it received a huge shock.

The bookcase collapsed, the chair broke through the glass and flew out.

It's not as if the Demon King's army from the south has already arrived.

It had only been a few minutes since I received Aria's report.

I'm not sure what to do. I'm not sure what to do.

I'm not sure what to make of that.

I'm not sure what to make of it.

I'm not sure what to make of it.

It's a great way to make sure you're getting the most out of your money.

It was as if it was enjoying Mizuki's reaction.

...... I don't like it.

He must have had a rotten personality.

In the event that you're not sure what to do, you'll be able to find out what to do.

"Blue Dragon Flame!

Mizuki counterattacked.

The blue flames surround the house in a beautiful circle.

At first I thought about running away, but that was no longer possible.

In the first place, there's no way I can keep quiet after something like this.

If I had no other choice but to fight, I would have to fight for my life.

"Where are you?

I can't say that I shouted out loud, but I did my best to raise my voice to confirm the enemy.

It's been about a hundred years since I've been in a fight.

I've killed a few people on Aria's orders, but that wasn't what I'd call a fight.

If there is too much difference in ability, it is not a battle but a massacre.

It can only be called a battle when people of equal ability fight each other.

Yes, that's exactly what happened this time.

Judging from the enemy's magical power and other factors, I could see that they were just as capable as me.

This mansion is protected by powerful wards.

Since he was able to shake the mansion like he had just done, he might have more power than me.

I felt a little bit of jealousy at that fact.

"If you're not going to come out--

Mizuki randomly drops a powerful thunderbolt in a radius of several dozen meters.

I'm not sure what to make of it.

I'm not sure what to make of it.

If they have zero resistance to lightning, it would not be surprising if they were killed outright.

However, that was too hopeful an observation, so he waited for the enemy to appear so as not to get his hopes up too high.
