It has been a long time since I spoke with Mr. Usato and Mr. Kazuki yesterday.

During the past two months, I had a good time talking about system deterioration, the Heroes' Collection Festival, and various things, but I was not able to collect much data on the purpose of gathering in the castle, which was "magic power turning" and "system deterioration".

Sometimes the core Welsey fainted over the Capa-Over, but somehow the new technology of system deterioration was deeper than she had imagined.

So, today, I was summoned to the castle with Wasato-kun, and I decided to continue my investigation.

"So, why do you have to follow me?"

While heading to the castle's training ground, Felm muttered to himself.

"Today I have to try a lot of techniques." Besides, look... now I've lost my hand. "

Felm moves his eyes slightly towards Wasato-kun, who has his bracelet missing and his right hand plumped.

When I notice it with my eyes, I move next to Susu and Ferm and speak in a whisper.

Could it be that you were so happy that you thought you could count on me even more when you ran out of cage hands?

"Hah!? You can't do that! I'll kill you!!"

I reacted with great momentum.

Soothes the intimidating Ferm like a cat.

Looking at us like that, Wasato-kun smiles with relief.

"Hey, Usato. You just smiled like 'I'm glad you're so close'."

"No, it's not that."

"Don't say it in a whisper...!!"

Ferm kicks Wasato-kun's leg from behind.

By contrast, Usuat-kun walks forward without making any movement.

"Gu, uuuu!"

Ferm stepping on the rudimentary.

I was dazzled to see such a figure.



"Thank you all for coming today."

When we arrived at the training ground, Welsey and the magic researchers working for her subordinate, the Castle, were waiting for us.

"Yesterday I was alone with Welsey, but today there are so many people..."

"The other day, I thought it would be okay to investigate alone, but I felt painful about the sweetness of my perception... Today, I will do everything I can, and I will take all the data!! Fufufu, this is the end---"

{Whoa... I'm so looking forward to seeing the deterioration of the system with my eyes...? Veria, why are you so blue? "

The magic power of Lord Ussat.

Welsey-sama!! Veria turned her eyes and fell!!

One of her men collapses behind Mr. Wessey, smiling unstoppably.

Rusato-kun is rushing to use healing magic right away...

Well, Veria with the Demon Eye has fallen!?

I can't believe it's circulating magic in my body so fast...!?

……

Huh, Wersey?

Well, it's still fine as it is.

Your voice is trembling...?

However, I have mastered magic turning quite well, but is it more than me, Mr. Rabbit?

Fortunately, the researcher with the Magical Eye woke up quickly, but now she's looking at you with eyes like she sees an unbelievable creature.

"Um, in the meantime, should we show the deterioration of the system?"

“Yes, in any form. Why don't you two play mock games? Of course, the condition is to use system deterioration."

I understand. Is that okay with you, senpai?

"Of course I don't mind."

I nodded with a training sword in my hand.

... it's been a long time since I've had a mock fight with Mr. Usato.

In the past two months, I have raised my basic strength and you are a great match for testing that strength.

“What about me? Do you want to assimilate?"

No, I'll do it alone at first.

"Well, I'm watching a game." Call me if you need me. "

Yeah, thank you.

Ferm leaves us and sits in the shade.

Me and Rabat-kun will travel to the center of the training ground, each to a location easily observed by researchers led by Wersey.

Some of them had some kind of magic tool for measuring it.

"Mr. Usato, Mr. Suzune, I'm ready to go, so I'm always ready for the first time."

"Ahh!... okay, fufu!!"

Applies magic power to the entire body, and activates Lightning Beast Mode 0 with system degradation.

Thinly wrapped in white light, I stand like a wooden sword. It wasn't as fast as the Thunder Beast mode, but it was a useful mode in that it was useless.

On the other hand, Usuat-kun wrapped the magic power in his hands around his elbows and stood up lightly.

Is that a new technique?

"It's a healing coating."

Perhaps a new technique from Wasato to replace the lost hand.

From the name, I could see it as a magic technique that would put magic power into my arm.

Predicting vaguely, with light force in the right hand attached to the wooden sword, a thin wave of green magical power was unexpectedly released from Wasato-kun.

You're spraying healing magic, aren't you?

"Yes, we have developed a solution to this problem because it usually consumes a lot of magic power."

Magic particles emitted around you at regular intervals.

They are scattered in the air, expanding the sensing range of Wasato-kun.

It's kind of scary to feel mentally at ease when you're about to fight. If you don't know Usato-kun's magic, you'll think it's even creepy.

"Hmph!!"

It was Mr. Usato who stepped in.

One step closer to me, he pushes out the bottom of his palm ——— but faster than that, the wooden sword that I pulled out emanates a white thunderbolt and approaches his torso.

"OH!!"

I was able to avoid the attack with an incredible speed of response...!

This time, I stepped in and forced you to drag you into my magic sensing range!!

"Ah, it's getting worse!!"

Magic sensing due to my system deterioration was a special feature of attack and defense.

If I stepped within the magic sensing range, the auto would block the movement of the opponent, and I could attack on my own.

At least if I get this close, there's no escape!

I see!

"Healing Flow"

---That's right, but the wooden sword I slammed slipped into Rabbit-kun's palm with a strange touch of lukewarmness.

"What are you doing!?"

"I'll keep my distance for a while!!"

While I'm surprised, I stick out the left hand that Wasato-kun had hidden behind his back.

Instantly, the sphere created in his palm ——— exploding magic bullets burst, blowing me and Rabbit's body apart at the same time.

"Ah, you're forcibly moving away from me...!!"

Because it was made for a bowl, there were few shock waves, but Usato-kun came out of the magic sensing range.

”If you get close to it, you can force it to stop moving...”

Rusato-kun is the one who reacts normally and often says,

It was dealt with normally, even though it was supposed to be slowed down by an electric shock.

Since it was a mock battle, I was somewhat restrained, but maybe even that might not be necessary for Rabbit-kun right now.

Well then, let's go from me!!

I stormed in with Wasato-kun.

I tried to throw a wooden sword at him while he was scrawny with a sharpened reflection --- and my awareness was disturbed by the strange resistance that I felt on the handle.

"What, what!?"

"Healing Sorption Fist"

If you look closely, the green magic power is sticking between the left hand and the wooden sword!? The stickiness is not so great, but it interferes with the sword ---,

"Nnnnh!"

"Wow!?"

Rabbit's hand sticks out in front of you.

I don't know, if it wasn't for magic sensing, I'd be caught right now!!

* giggle *, you were stuck to him the moment you attacked him!! I can flash my magic power with an electric shock right away, but I'm going to step back here...!

"This time, my feet!?"

As soon as I was conscious of it, the green magic was stuck to my legs, and I was almost finished.

I'm doing something to overlook your behavior...!!

But I didn't play brave with Date either! Forced to take the flow!!

"Hmph!!"

"Mm!!"

He sticks out the pattern like it was before and crushes Mr. Usato's pursuit.

I stood in a comfy position without letting go of my distance, and unleashed my sword without losing my hair.

Healing Failure

"Hin!?"

Suddenly, something like a gentle wave of magical power passes through my body and my head becomes confused.

What did you do to me!? Naturally healing magic!... why is the healing magic so strong here!???

Yes, first of all, it's a blow.

"Aiya"

My head stopped thinking and stopped moving for a moment, and a pompous, light sword was swung down.

Holding his head down and looking at Wusat-kun, he had a smile that he only said he would return someday. [M]

You've finally repaid Lukvis' "sneaky".

"Mu, muumu..."

Suddenly, the wave of healing magic got stronger, forcing me to lose my temper.

"It's healing magic, so it's harmless" is a subconscious piercing... even if you know it, it's a trick to get away with it...!

"Hey! Hey, Rabbit!! Your technique is completely my meta!!"

"I've never seen you use it before, so I was hoping you'd enjoy it while I'm at it."

"I'm having full fun!! Thank you!!"

It was the first time I had seen all of the moves being performed.

It was probably enough to be called the Swordsman Meta to be healed.

In addition, that healing coating technique... can also be seen as a technique that inhibits the movement of the opponent with the magic power that gives it elasticity and viscosity.

If there was a Nea here, it would have been combined with the restraint magic to make it a more ruthless move.

Somehow, your habits are getting worse.

Nero-san also told me about it.

"... Nero Agence?"

"I was asking you to meet me while I was over there."

"I've been training with the strongest swordsman on the demon side..."

In other words, the usual movements and slashing can already be assumed to be familiar to him.

"Then..."

Thunder Beast Mode 0 doesn't seem to be compatible with your opponent.

If senpai cares about that, he can fight as it is, right?

Wasato smiles bitterly at me for solving the system deterioration.

I can certainly continue as it is, but it is a fact that the counter-oriented mode 0 is not compatible.

Besides... I can cope with Rabbit's earlier moves, but I can see him crafting my Thunder Beast Mode 0 countermeasures in battle.

"... do you have the data well?"

With a glance, I saw Welsey and the others taking data around me.

……

Absolutely.

Everyone is speechless.

... I forgot that not only is it a system deterioration in the first place, but even the technology to make the magic force elastic is unusual.

If you look at Kazuki and Wasato, you won't forget.

I'll take Mode 2 next, but do you mind?

"Yes. This is also... Ferm"

"Hmm? Ahh"

Ferm, who was called by him, sank into his own shadow, climbing from the foot of Usato-kun and covering his entire body.

Now that he's not in regimental clothes, Rabat-kun turns to me, gently stretching to see how he's doing, looking like a rider suit.

It's been a long time, but I can do it at all. Don't be shy.

"Yeah, I'm counting on you."... Senpai, I'm ready to go. "

"Well then, it's the second round." Welsey, I wish everyone around me was a little further away. "

If you and I are going to fight with that amount of strength, we'll have to take up a lot of space.

Wessey and I have confirmed that we have distanced ourselves, and Usuat-kun will face each other again.

Now, magic sensing can sense my movements, but I haven't been playing for the last two months either.

Let's see what he does and deal with it first.

The moment I thought about it and tried to hold my hand in that position---Usato-kun's hands could be pointed at me without making a fool of themselves.

Huh?

What is emitted is a shock wave in no-motion.

Thunderbolt Mode 2 speeds him away from them, but he keeps his hands on us and emits continuous shockwaves.

I don't think you're going to say the name of the technique anymore!?

"Now that I've grown up, I've become a regular technique."

Nah!!

That's cool!!

Cut out the shockwave and send out an electric shock.

On the other hand, he shrugs off magic shock waves from his back, feet, and waist like thrusters to avoid high-speed movement.

"I didn't think it would be so terrible to consume less magic power...!!"

With the technology of System Degradation, his technique could be described as a step sublimation.

The explosion of magic power that he had been using as a "trick" had turned into something that he could do with no motion.

"Even if you defeat the Demon King, you're still evolving...!"

I also assumed that I had grown due to system deterioration, but it still seems like it is!!

"But I can't lose either!!"

Wielding a strong electric shock, Wasato takes a sword from behind him.

Guaranteed direct hit.

The wooden sword that I was sure of slammed---and slammed through Wasato-kun's body.

"Naah!?"

What a strange technique!?

Healing Remnant Fist

This is a magic chunk that imitates you!?

He's already a few meters away from me, and he's showing me how to store something with both hands---

Healing...

"Huh, Mr. Usato, isn't that tough?"

"Exploding Double Wave!!"

"Yabaaaa!!?"

---He did not hesitate to release the healing burst wave with both hands.

I wrapped a wooden sword with all my strength and cut through the shock waves, but it didn't stop throbbing in the sense that it was dangerous.

"That technique just now, it was called afterimage fist...!!"

I saw it as a technique that allows me to take off the magic power that has hardness by applying elasticity and release it to make it possible to replace my body with magic!!

Then it's easy to deal with!!

All you have to do is keep an eye on Wasato-kun!?

"Eh, what is that movement...?"

As his movements stopped and accelerated irregularly, the remnants of the healing magic human form remained there like an afterimage.

What have you done in the Demon King Realm!!?

"Training!!"

Where is the one who is training to become a fighter?!!

"Ah, hahah..."

It's so annoying that I'm laughing on the contrary.

I can only see the technology of system deterioration, but the real eye should be on Usato's own flexible ingenuity and the flesh that makes it possible.

That's why we grow completely differently from our heroes and are so relative and fun...!!

"Hahaha!!"

The dry laughter quickly turned into joy, and I further intensified the electric shock I was wearing.

"Usato-kun, how dare you disregard me as a thunderbolt and create an afterimage!!"

"Hmm, this is the power of healing magic"

Where's the healing?

He has grown to the point where he is concerned about the content of the two months that he has been distracted from.

Seeing the growth, I enjoyed the simulated battle with him without hiding my exuberance.
