Black Summoner

(Was that a horse running lamp...?No, it doesn't seem to be dead by the time you have this extra thought... but, uh...)

The light gradually returns to Dorothy's dark vision.I checked my condition in my obscure thoughts, not only my brain but also my body's senses were ambiguous, and I still had a dreamy mood.It seems that the memory is vague as to what I was doing until recently and why I am still doing it.

"Definitely - Lumier - Confrontation - Winner -"

Far away, someone is talking about something.Only fragmentary words come into your ears, and nothing comes into your mind until the contents.However, the vision is gradually recovering.Until then, the cloudless blue sky welcomed Dorothy.

"... empty?

"Hmm? Well, if you sleep on your back outside, you'll see the sky.Hey, you okay?

From the edge of the inhaled sky, a familiar Reaper's face pops up.This was a face I didn't want to see very much, but Dorothy's head woke up instantly because she put it in sight.And somehow made me understand why this happened.

"Hah... did I lose?

"Ah, you fell down with the noisy words.Hey, can you stand up?

Kelvin reached out to Dorothy.Kelvin's wounds seem to have healed and the holes in his shoulders are blocked.She was a little surprised at the hand, but unexpectedly grasped it honestly.

"Whoa!?A brilliant victory, Kelvin helped Dorothy!This is a beautiful sight!Friendship right after we hit each other!

With Kelvin's help, Dorothy stood up and heard the reality of the run from outside the stage.Ah, Dorothy is stunned when she is convinced that the voice she just heard is hers.

"Live seats are also telling me.Come on, make a smile and wave to the audience.That way, it'll fit where it fits. "

Kelvin muttered in a whisper that only Dorothy could hear.

"... are you going to help me?I tried to kill you. This me?

Sort of. Your abilities and abilities look promising in the future.However, I felt that there was an overwhelming lack of experience in combat.The next time you come and kill me, you'll have to work it out.I'm looking forward to it. "

"What?... I don't know what you're talking about.

"No, because you're Leon's friend, right?I think it's a good match for Leon, right?Strong fellow, isn't that a really good thing?I want you to stay close to me forever. "

………

Dorothy lost her words and was stunned by Kelvin's unexpected words.Until then, she waved her hand in the wind, but the hand also stopped.

"... because I'm your friend, do I have to kill you?You don't even know if he's your real friend?You came close to killing me?Besides, I can't believe you're here to kill me again... I really don't know what that means, really... "

"Ha ha ha, now that you know what it means, you're one of the rational Battlejunkies.Rest assured, my family comes to kill me on a daily basis, so nothing will change when you're there alone.Look, it's common for you to come from behind and aim for your neck, get a bad sleeping partner, and suffocate when you're drunk, right?

"I don't have any! What kind of family?!

Such a family.

"Well, that's not what this is about!I deceived Mr. Leon... "

"--That's fine, that's fine.At least Leon still thinks he's a friend.I beat you up, but I spent a lot of time at school with Leon.I'll let you believe what Leon believes. "

"Nh...!

Dorothy had lost consciousness of Kelvin's feelings when he smiled differently than he did in the battle.I just wonder what this feeling is.

"Oh, of course, I'll find out who you are, what you're after and where you're after me."

"... that's the only natural measure.Let me ask you one thing. I heard the last thing I said, and nothing happened?

"Hmm? Ah, you mean 'hurt yourself'?It must have been a curse, but it didn't work for me.My wife's equipment is resistant to anomalies.Well, not entirely, so magic worked when you were a gunman.Oh, you want to know why the audience was safe, not me?

"Yeah, well, so are you.I was going to raise my voice a lot. "

"Hmm, I don't really understand you either... but maybe the art director prevented me from playing.Shortly after you put the curse on and fainted, Art suddenly rang a jar.Everyone was surprised, but Art said he played the victory fanfare and put it on the fact sheet.I think your words were scratched off by that shit. "

"I see, did that dean... fufu, did he read it carefully?S-class adventurers are hard to underestimate. "

Dorothy's expression spilled a slight smile at how far she had been defeated and turned around.

"... that cursed word was created with my unique skill, 'Heroic Remembrance'.At last, the body was hardened like steel, thanks to its ability. "

"Whoa, suddenly you hit me, huh?

"You're going to extract information from me, even if it's not now?Then sooner or later, it will be something to say. "

"Oh, I'm so honest.... is that intrinsic skill related to that book that was floating in space during the battle?I checked it out, but it's Tricen's book, right?It was like a summary book written about the previous demon king disturbance. "

"Yeah, that's right."Remembrance of Heroes" is a book that allows you to borrow the unique skills of the great people listed therein.This time I borrowed the King's Life of Demon King Zel Trissen and the Iron Heart of General Dan Dalba of the Knights of Steel.I could only use one unique skill at a time, so I switched between them.I don't know which occasion I used it on... well, you wouldn't have to explain it to me, would you?

Sort of. But hah, in addition to time magic, did you even have that kind of stuff?Hmm. "

Kelvin's eyes began to shine evil as he became more and more interested in Dorothy.Dorothy tried to keep Kelvin out of sight.

"Hey, can I have another one?

"Not very good, but what?

"If you wanted to kill me, you shouldn't have confronted me in public and assassinated me from the beginning.That's welcome for me, too, and I think there was a better chance of winning than coming straight to the game.

"That's, uh..."

Dorothy fills Kelvin's question with words.After that, you chew something into your head.After a few seconds, she raised her face convincingly.

"... maybe the hatred I was trying to do was purified by my friends."

"Heh? What's the weird reason?

"Even if you don't understand, that's probably why.Ah, but if I may add, I might have wanted to be a little mean to your daughter.I don't know why. "

"Ah? I'll kill you?

Kelvin starts suddenly with a serious intent to kill.However, Dorothy was expecting this reaction, and she is pardoning it with a nasty face.

"Damn, don't tell me such a boring joke.Oh, yeah. I forgot to tell you, but while you were fainting, I had to do a little work. "

Detailed work?

"Yeah, fine work. After choosing to keep you alive, it's difficult for someone other than me to come out later, so I put a combination of green and white magic on your heart called the Eagle Grab Wind (Heartkarm).Nothing to worry about.It usually does you a good job of strengthening your healing abilities and self-cleaning.You woke up unexpectedly fast after you passed out, didn't you?It's actually thanks to this magic. "

"... normally, it's not that magical, right?

"Of course. When you try to do so much harm to someone other than me, I'll cut your heart without asking questions, so just be careful.Hey, combing magic is hard to adjust, so at a good time, the subject --- Cohon!I'm really glad someone showed up to help me with the test. "

………

I knew I hated him. Dorothy thought so from the bottom of her heart.
