The day after I found the ruins.

As the sun began to show its face, we were forced to rely on the footprints of Shea on the ground and the smell of Shea remaining in the preserved food wraps to move through the woods.

"Burling, can you follow the smell?"

"Grrr..."

"Subtle, but do you know the direction?"

Grrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr

Okay, then, please do it.

If you know the direction, you can go that way.

We need to be careful with the ground, as long as we find any traces of Shia's footprints along the way.

"I'm the Beastman, so I can tell, but Wasato is in complete communication with Bullin, right...?"

"You don't understand words, do you?"However, I think I know what he wants to tell you somehow.So are you, Burlin. "

Guah!

"I've been hit in the leg as hard as I could..."

I saw Nagi-san being beaten by Bullin.

... you're not being honest.

As usual, I sighed at Bullins who punched me in the leg.

"Do you have any gaze I felt yesterday?"

Even with me, I don't have much accuracy because it's just intuition or something like that.

I'm pretty sure Rose would know... but I don't think I've got that much wild stuff yet.

As she murmured, Amako, who was sitting on Bullin's back, called out.

"What was it about Rabbit that made you feel hostile?"

"Hmm, I don't know. I feel like I did, maybe I just watched it.... honestly, if it's my fault, I think it's fine. "

"Why?"

If something comes up, we have to deal with it. If it's the people who live here, it's better to set things up badly.

I want to build a good relationship with the people who may live here for the future.

"It's tough, isn't it?" What Rasat is trying to do right now

"If I fail, I will be stuck with the Demon King, so I can't fail...!!"

I don't mean to fail, but I can't stand being tampered with by the Demon King.

We have to do our best to keep that person out of sight.

"...... Perhaps Kannagi's impression of a rabbit from the Demon King is less rigid than I thought?"

”Hmm, hmm. It was like we were hitting each other with words, I guess.”

"Well... I can imagine. We had a fight at the end of the fight."

I think that battle was a long time ago.

I don't want to fight the Demon King again.

The next fight will definitely use a tactic that keeps us away.

”You can even think that Shia is drawn to the power of the demon king...”

"Considering the relationship between the sea lion and the demon king, it's not a strange story."Perhaps future generations...... well, it's possible that shea will insure you when you defeat the Demon King in this day and age. "

Nagi-san's words are a matter of thought.

Then, Nea, who was on her shoulder, opened her mouth with a stretch.

"Maybe the demon king who was supposed to die while the human side was winning is alive."Maybe he's trying to kill a fragment of the Demon King's power (...) in order to fix that centipede. "

"We need to find it quickly."

There were three demonic powers: the Demon King Realm and the Monster Realm.

One was with Lord Falgar, and the other three were thought to be in the human realm from the demon king's mouth, but I wanted to retrieve all such perplexing things.

"... Usato"

Amako's voice.

When I realized that I was under some kind of attack (......) with that mixed voice of tension, I silently wrapped my hand and radiated the healing magic that had deteriorated the system widely.

With a slight delay, Nagi-san was able to confirm her prediction. She also put her hand on the sword at her waist.

“Everyone stands ready to fight. Elle and the others need Hannah's protection.”

"It's like being driven away by something."No, this is...... I can't believe it. "

Amako looks up at me with a continuous look at the prediction.

"Rusat, put me on your back. The aim is like you."

"Well, what do you mean? The opponent is aku---"

When Nea tried to raise her voice of doubt, the ground sounded trembling.

It's not a big shake. But there were a lot of monsters running towards us.

"Gaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa

"Ohhhh!!"

"Wooow!!"

There were many large monsters who came out of the trees with roaring and screaming.

What we have in common with monsters of a sparse and completely unified kind is that they attack us and ——— they rush us to be chased away by something.

If we keep quiet like this, we will be crushed.

I grab the armpit hand that I reached for and cover it with a cloak while moving it to my back.

"Intensive formation" "Three!!" "

Roger that!

When I shouted that, the faces of the team stiffened their defenses by combining their magic.

Val, Kevin, and Sane build a barrier to protect us from the monster's assault. Nono unleashes a special water magic spell in front of the barrier, destabilizing the foot, and finally Elle, who rolled up the sand smoke, crushes the monster's sight.

The coordinated tricks that were unleashed with short instructions were enough to confuse the monsters that were coming at us with hostility.

"Koga and Nagi, Bullin, please deal with the monster!! Hannah is waiting near her men, but she is disturbed by phantom magic!! Please do this if Veena is magic!!"

”Hiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiii

Maybe I can't afford it more than I thought.

I decided that I should fight with Amako for a reason.

"Rabbit, I'm here (...)!!"

Immediately after Amako's voice, it responds to magic sensing!

It was a monster like a tiger wrapped in a black flame that jumped out from the side at a furious speed.

Its size was so great that it exceeded five meters. The angry eyes that appeared from the mixed black and wobbly figure in white were directed straight at me.

Gahh!!

"I see, this is him!!"

The identity of the mysterious sign that was looking at us yesterday!!

He swings down with his forefoot trying to tear me apart in anger.

"It's sweet!!"

Naaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa

Along with that, I held out my right hand wrapped in my cage and pinched it aside. I used the momentum that the monster had pushed in and threw it backwards.

"Koga!! I'll take care of that one!! You take care of Hannah!!"

"Oh, leave it to me! Take him with you!"

His counterpart appears at Korga's feet.

I accidentally touched the doppelgänger and deformed it into a cage that wrapped around my left arm, running through a group of monsters to chase the monster I had thrown away.

Hey, isn't it strange what I've been doing to you since you came here!? I'm just a former Commander of the Third Army!! Why are you treating me like a weak girl?!

But I think Hannah-san's physical strength is the lowest in line.

Nono, shut up!

What kind of monster is that?

The appearance itself looked like a big tiger in the shape of a black flame.

"Is that dark magic...?"

Rabbit, is it again?

Hah, that's right, Dark Wizard Whiwoo.

The same dark wizard as me...

I was shocked by the fox on my back and the owl on my shoulder.

It's not my fault that I encounter the Dark Wizard!! It's not like the opponent is a Dark Wizard yet!!

Rabbit, it's coming from above!

"Ahh!!"

I'm picking it up!

Avoiding the monsters that jumped overhead, they attacked with their forefoots and bites.

Rabbit, thanks to the healing sensing, I don't need to preview the movement, so I will give instructions to Keira and Nea to predict the behavior of the attack.

"Please!"

"The monster spits the flame out of its mouth."Nea, the spell of resistance. The rabbit is a shockwave.Keira wrapped a deformed cloak around Rabbit's right arm. "

As Amako said, the monster that opened its mouth spewed out a black flame from its mouth.

While stirring the flames with the healing magic rupture palm, I put my hands around Keira's dark magic on the forefoot.

"Hmph!!"

Use your moves to slip your forefoot.

Pushing through that momentary gap, I changed the part of Koga that was wrapped around my left arm into a gavel and threw it over the monster's torso.

”Wow... this is Amako-san's predictive magic...”

"But it's not just prediction."Keira's doing well, too. "

Thank you!

I haven't sent a letter to Date yet.

There is also a relationship of trust, and most importantly, Amako keeps a close eye on the surroundings without any predictive magic.

Now, as I grabbed the hammer in my left hand, I saw a monster threatening me.

"---!!"

"...... If you can understand the words, please stop attacking."We're not going to hurt you. "

……

First, I wanted to see if the opponent was willing to fight, and if possible, I didn't have to fight.

If the opponent was a normal monster, I could just stun them and get out of here.

... you...

Did you say something...?

After all, this monster has a will.

Or maybe it was shaped by some kind of magic, and there was someone inside.

In the meantime, the voice that came from the monster seemed to be the same as Keira's, like an old child.

Usato

"... why did you give me my name?"

The white, strange move... dangerous one

What kind of recognition is that!!

I don't know why you're treating me like a dangerous person even if you leave my name out!!

"That's amazing. That monster knows you well..."

It's noisy!

Don't agree with Nea!

I can tell from the impression of being white that I'm wearing regimental clothes, but who taught him about me in the first place?

And why is this guy looking at me with hostility...?

Shia, where did you go?

"...!"

Unexpected words.

I throw words at the monster that gave me Shia's name.

"Do you know her!!"

You must have brought it with you!!

What do you mean...?

It was a monster that turned its voice to hostility, but we were not taking Shia with us, we were now following in her footsteps.

But the monster in front of me didn't think so.

Shia, you were by my side!! You disappeared in the morning!! After that, you came!! Suspicious guy! Dangerous guy!!

Huh...

A monster with a black flame wrapped around it flew to the ground.

The movement was quite amazing compared to the large body, and it gently attacked me while kicking the tree to the scaffolding.

"Listen to me!"

Shut up!! The white one!

There was no island to be attached to, even if I threw a voice while attacking.

"That black flame. I think I can change its shape."I'm going to hit you like a whip on the third landing. "

"There's no problem touching the flame!?"

It will burn physically, but I can grab it normally with the rabbit's hand.

Awaiting the third landing while conscious of Amako's predicted information.

As she predicted, the monster that landed on the ground was shaken by the black flame wrapped around her and turned into a whip-like shape.

"Rabbit, what are you doing!" Attack!? "

"Now I'm dedicated to avoiding!! Healing Remnant Fist!!"

In line with the movement of putting on the emergency, it moves while leaving the residue of healing magic created by elasticity on the spot.

The whip sticking out like a spear will not hit me just by piercing the remnants of the healing magic left in place.

"---You! You're moving disgustingly!! Gah!!"

"Range attack. Can be crushed by shock waves."

"Ahh!!"

At the same time that the monster opened its mouth, it moved to a healing burst stance, releasing a black flame before it was spit out.

Nah!?

The spit-out black flame blows away with a shockwave before exerting its natural power.

Aiming at the dazed gap ——— I had a healing magic bullet filled with the magic of Nea's restraint directly hit the monster's body.

Healing restraint bullet!!

---!?

Seal the motion in an instant like this ——— nn!?

When the magic bullet was hit and the curse of restraint tried to erode the black body, the black flame of the part that landed was pulled so as to split from the monster.

You saw that! You're going to blow me up!!

……

Aware of the threat of a healing burst shell, did you see us attacked by Venom Monkey yesterday, or did you fight for today's attack?

Actually, I didn't intend to detonate it with a healing restraint, but how did I get my adsorption-type healing magic detached from my body and dealt with?

Black flame, right?

"It doesn't burn all over the place, so I feel like I can choose who to burn."And you can cut yourself off. "

This diversity is dark and magical.

It was also aggressive.

"Holy shit, Rabbit, I don't think I'm going to listen to you properly."

"Maybe it's a child..."

I feel that way too.

It wasn't an unbeatable opponent.

To see his abilities, he wrapped a black flame created by dark magic around his body, and his physical abilities improved dramatically.

It resembles the dark magic of Korga.

What's different is that, unlike him, he's too strong.

Korga looked like a power type, and she was a crafty type.

It can be said that such a place was troublesome.

Hit it!! Hit it!!

"... you're a child, aren't you?"

One after the other, Koga's clone was transformed into a hammer.

No. Is it faster to cut this down?

When I think about it, the shape of the hammer in my hand changes at will, and it becomes like a big sickle.

"Ehhh!? Why is it in such a noisy shape!?"

Don't do anything!!

!

Without time to be surprised, the tip of the whip that is coming towards us is cut off by swinging it with force with the big sickle.

"This sharpness is too dangerous..."

"With a black cloak and a sickle... a grim reaper..."

"Who's a reaper?"

Tsukko mumbles that she won't listen to Nea.

The opposite is true of me.

Rather, it was the side that the Reaper hated.

It was dangerous, so I thought about it while returning the sickle to its original position.

"I wonder what's going on..."

There was also a hand that pushed the healing punch like this and pulled the contents out... but that was too good to be true, so I turned it down.

"Rabbit, that girl. She's rambling, so maybe we should just keep her quiet."

I think so too. If she was a Dark Wizard, it would be more dangerous to leave her like that. ”

……

That's true.

I don't know about her relationship with Shia, but she's gone and she's in a state of uncertainty.

I guess I'll have to do it.

If you're going to do it, you'll have to push yourself to stun in a flash.

Due to the characteristics of Dark Magic, no further rampage is too dangerous.

AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA

A numb monster flew at me with a whip.

I'm avoiding this ——— but I dare to step forward and try to defend myself with my hammer.

I'll crush you like this!!

I'm trying to crush me with all my weight... but it's sweet!!

With that amount of weight and strength, it's not enough to crush me at all!!

"I'm stronger!!"

"I'm used to it, but the body of a rabbit is strange."

"It's true, but it makes me laugh because I don't know what it means."

I don't have any difference in stature...

Hee, what the hell is this guy! You can hear four voices!! "

Because Amako is protected by a cloak on her back, I can hear four other voices from this girl...

Uuhh! This!!

"Oops..."

The whip is pushed out in a combined state.

I let go of the big hammer where the monster is biting and step back. [M]

You've already lost your weapon!!

"... oh yeah, that's right."

Seeing the biting hammer dumped on the ground, I decided to try to convince the last (...)

"I won't do anything bad to you."But I can't guarantee it if I keep going any further. "

"If you can do it, try it!! You can't do it!"I'm the one who's hunting you down!! "

"We're looking for Shea, too."

What are you going to do to Shea!!

It's more like you're looking at me thoroughly as an outsider than you can understand the story...?

Has she ever met anyone other than Shia or me in the first place?

I don't think Shia's obsession is normal.

"Shea! She was groaning! I was crying out for your name while I was sleeping and suffering!!”

……

... then it's even worse if you're wasting your time in a place like this.

Judging that there is no point in answering any more questions to the words, I solve my stance. [M]

"... I'm sorry."

While apologizing, I (...) gave instructions to Koga's counterpart who appeared to have been taken away by the monster earlier.

Immediately next to the monster, the figure that changed to the original human figure jumps onto the back of the monster as if it was held from its back, and transforms so that it is not pulled.

N-No, what!? This!?

Suddenly, the monster fluttered and swung its body wide to the side, but the clinging figure did not leave.

Hah, get away!! I can't pull it off!? ———!!???

I thought I saw some monsters here.

A healing bursting shell (...) attached to the back of the Doppelgänger.

!!!?! No! No! Get away!! Get out of the way!! "

It was a healing burst that was attached to the Doppelgänger.

Yesterday I put it on to make it look good, but from the beginning, Korga's counterpart can move according to some instructions.

In other words, this is the movement of Korga.

As fast as Koga,

With a Koga-like skill,

With the persistence of Koga,

It's even possible to restrain the opponent.

Nea

"Hey, you're past that.""Restraint Magic, Activate"

In addition, it obstructs even the split with the witchcraft of unnecessary restraint.

The healing burst munition that adjusted the blast time ruptures when the movement was sealed.

"Healing Doppelgänger Blast"

---aah

Healing magic particles are diffused and shockwaves are emitted around the monster.

After the black flame splashed around and disappeared, a child wearing a brand new coat fainted at the center of the shock wave.

This is Shia-san's coat.

"Who the hell is this girl?"

I wasn't sure who I was at the moment I was in the monster realm, but the Dark Wizard... it wasn't unusual that I was dealing with this much power.

When you wake up a child who has fainted in a lying-down motion by lowering their armpits from their backs —— the hood that completely covers their heads comes off, revealing their figure.

"! This is...."

What I saw was brown skin representing the characteristics of the demon race.

But the horns didn't grow, and instead the child... the girl's ears, which looked slightly older than Keira's, were as long as the elves' ears.

Well, it was a demon race... but I was using dark magic...

The situation of the demons born with dark magic and the elves who lived hidden in the forest... I see.

Demons, Dark Wizards and Elves.

I couldn't hide my confusion about the identity of a monster that was too unexpected.
