The person who waited for us at Miarak's castle was the queen who drank potions.
It was me who was eating the face at first, but given the circumstances surrounding her and the country, it was an impossible story.
After healing magic on her like that, we introduced ourselves again and we were in front of Master Norn just like we were earlier.
"I apologize for being so rude."
"No, the situation is the situation, and we don't care."
Dear Norn, I changed from the tired look of earlier to a full face.
Whether the healing magic worked too well, the feeling of boredom, although the neighborhood was still there, had completely disappeared.
"But healing magic was a blind spot. I never imagined it would be more beneficial magic... if only I could keep working on sleepless breaks? Collect healing wizards when this noise is over..."
"Your body can't heal to your heart if you can. No matter how much your body moves, if the spirit that supports it becomes exhausted, you will eventually fall."
Its healing magic is not gentle on the mind, even if it is gentle on the body.
If healing magic forces you to heal your body and keep working in insomnia, you'll go crazy.
When the queen felt sorry for my words, she clapped the potion beside her.
"I thought you didn't have to rely on the potion anymore, but you still seem to need it"
"Dear Norn. You'd rather stay away from the potion than look for a cure wizard first."
Even though the maid who had refrained behind Master Norn advised him, Master Norn seemed to miss the potion without listening at all.
Is this guy seriously addicted to potions?
Instead of putting the potion down, I feel pretty late around nostalgic though.
"Well, you're messengers from the kingdom of Ringle, right?"
"Yes. We came to Miarak for a purpose. … Now, Lord Usato"
Mr. Ark prompted me to take the letter out of my nostalgia, and I give it to Master Norn.
Opening the letter, she sighed a small sigh as she looked silently through the letter.
"... the Demon King."
Perhaps it will not be possible to attach cooperation only this time. Because this country is not the place to be, not to be turned down or anything like that.
But I tried to tell him that the Demon King's threat was approaching, and I gave him the letter.
"A boy wearing white clothes is coming... he's right"
"... eh?"
"I'll put this answer on hold."
On hold? No?
I thought it would turn me down immediately in anticipation, but with what intent did I put it on hold?
Looking next door, Mr. Alk seems confused, too.
"We are now facing a crisis in Miarak. It is no coincidence that you came to visit at that time. You came here to come. [M] And I knew you were coming, too."
……!
"But I didn't believe it. Now that he's rambling outside, there can't be anyone who thinks of going into Miarak. Even if I were there, I'd be iced and out of breath by now."
The way she said it, the way she expected us to come before we visited here.
Besides, it sounds like someone else, not herself who expected it.
"Still, you've come this far. That's why I have to tell you that I've come this far. The tragedy that struck a man with the power of a dragon at the beginning of the disaster that struck this city suddenly..."
That's what Norn said, he goes on to spin out the words.
"Those who are rampant outside are former knights of Miarak. His name is Karon. … from the look on her face, it looks like she's already told you this story?"
She? Oh, you're talking about the maid.
That's what I thought. I snort at Norn's words.
"You're done with the rough explanation. Then let's talk about him in detail first"
Hmm, she nodded and let the explanation resume.
"He was just a young man who didn't have the power of a dragon until recently."
"He was a normal person, you mean?"
"That's not true. He is not a normal person. Even if it was just a young man, there were complications."
A complicated situation?
That's an ambiguous way to put it......
"He was an excellent knight. Excellent force, thoughtful, and eventually even had the potential to be the brave men of this city. In fact, it made a scene between him and the other chosen candidate, giving him a name as a brave man."
Is Leo's statement from here that he was supposed to be a brave man?
But if you were so powerful, why did you run off?
Tilting his neck, Master Norn spun the following words.
"That's when the anomaly happened to him - he held his head to withstand something, and he got so confused that he injured a knight who was nearby"
"So you're in jail?"
"Yeah, it took a long time to lock him up, which even a few of us couldn't hold back, but still managed to shut him down to Miarak's sturdiest cage. But the cage ended up... only buying time."
Just two weeks ago - if he's been locked up for a month, does that mean that in half a month, Mr. Caron has escaped Miarak?
"Out of prison, he headed to the treasure trove as if he had been drawn to something. So what he took in his hands was Miarak's treasure - the most powerful and free weapon in the world, with comparable power and potential to the sword that the brave man who defeated the Demon King was dealing with."
"Equivalent to the weapon of the brave...!?"
Put your hands on the brave knife sitting unconsciously on your hips.
Now it's time to cut fruit, stick it in the forehead of a grudge, and use it less, but I know how to fight the original users of this.
Battle of the brave and evil dragons shown by Samarial's grudges.
The previous brave men were fortifying themselves by piercing a small knife in their body. Besides, he was showing enough power to surpass the power of evil dragons in all their seasons with all that enhancement of some kind of principle.
Does Mr. Caron have a weapon that exerts such extraordinary power...
"That axe, is it..."
"That's not an axe. It's changed to axe shape when he's using it, but the original shape is just a stick. The maker said - 'This is a bow, a sword, and a whip. It is the' wand 'of ice that transforms itself as the optimal form of bearer."
"Not an axe, wand"
Does the shape of the axe now mean that that is the most suitable form of weapon for Mr. Caron today?
That power would convince me. More than a half-breed sword or a spear, the blow of an axe that I tried to crack in my hand cooled my liver.
"It would be great for him to deal with a weapon that only a cane can deal with a bearer of his choosing, but he can't be happy in that condition at the heart. Conversely, I can't get my hands on it anymore."
"So did he freeze the water around Miarak?"
Lady Norn nods to Mr. Ark's question.
Enough to freeze all that mass of water. I'm glad they didn't let me out when Leo and I were fighting. I wouldn't have just been sorry if I had taken something of that size directly from the front.
... No, maybe after Mr. Caron's body was transformed, that's the kind of snowstorm attack that was launched? But that shouldn't have been powerful enough to freeze the lake.
"He's the one who froze the perimeter of the city. But that's just the result of his overwhelming power. There's no way you can wield that much power in a normal rampage.... if his powers don't release to the next stage, we're talking about"
"... Um..."
"Well,” he ”s got about half a month to spare, so I'm still okay with it."
Don't worry, we'll look each other in the face at Lady Norn, who just smiles.
Maybe, when you're fighting me - you can see that he's got horns and tails, freed to the next stage. If you think that the power of the snowstorm wasn't powerful enough to freeze the surrounding water because it was releasing massive amounts of ice columns on us before that, Tsuji fits.
... but it's very hard to say.
Until before I did the healing magic, Mr. Caron was already awake to the next stage, and I can't help but notice what you're saying.
"Usato, say it"
"Usato, tell him"
Lord Usato, please.
My people throw round when they say it's here, so it's hard.
Mr. Alk, I know I should report a battle, but Nair and Amako feel totally bothered.
"Dear Norn,"
"Yes? What is it? Usato, look so strange."
"Mr. Caron has already fulfilled his awakening. Currently, he had horns on his head and dragon tails on his hips. So I thought... things were pretty bad."
"... eh?"
Piscilli and the hardened Norn make his voice tremble sadly.
"Also, have you awakened already?"
"Yes."
When I nodded, she held her head.
"Easy, easy, Norn. Still fine. Shouldn't be on a level I can't get my hands on yet. If we can do something about him by then, we can still get back on our feet..."
From Lady Norn, who began to whine about bumps and something, I felt strange sadness drifting.
But it's not just her. It's not like we suck either. Stay in this country, get out, clash with Mr. Caron is inevitable.
And when that happens, can I stand around him when he's awakened to the next level?
In addition, he has in his hands a weapon comparable to that of a brave man.
For once, I have a weapon of bravery too, but the bearer of this doesn't make sense because it's not me in the first place.
No, there's more ambiguity in Mr. Norn's story than that.
Where does Mr. Caron's power come from in the first place? His magic goes beyond making up for it with one's earliest magic. The magic power that caused the snowstorm and just froze all the water around me was out of my knowledge of the standard - enough to surpass the dog seniors and Kazuki as well.
"- Knight Leona, it's late, but we're back from the battlefield!"
"... hmm?"
From the door of the great hall, a familiar voice sounded.
Hearing that voice, Lady Norn leaked a smile as if to welcome someone outside the door when she raised her bent face.
"Come in."
"Ha."
I opened the door quietly, and when I saw the person who came in, I was a little confused.
I thought it was Mr. Leo from his voice, but he betrayed his predictions, and it was the woman who came in.
A woman with beautiful blonde hair stretched as far as her waist and tied in one and an eye as sharp as an eagle.
The woman who came into the hall dressed in lightweight armor and a long skirt of length walked over to us as she bowed politely and naturally.
"Huh..."
?
She smiles and pounds on my shoulder and bows her knees as she walks to the throne where Lady Norn sits.
All of a sudden, I was slapped on the shoulder, tilting my neck without knowing why.
I don't know, you're a very friendly person. It was as easy as saying hello to a friend.
Is that normal in this city?
"I'm glad you're home safe."
"Words Without Body"
"You're the only knight who can take on Karon. Now, if I ever lose you, no one can fight him. Well, he came back. Knight Leona."
Do you mean Mr. Leona?
I guess the fact that you were dealing with Mr. Caron is a pretty strong knight.
... hmm? Earlier, Mr. Caron was supposed to be dealing with me and Mr. Leo, but was this guy fighting, too?
"He has fulfilled his awakening of power"
"Usato told me. From your eyes, how strong is Karon?"
"It seems more ferocious and correspondingly more powerful than before awakening.... Sorry, I was overflown with consciousness in an instant shortly after awakening, so the exact information was on the boulder..."
"As many knights as you are in an instant... this is a bad idea"
Dear Norn, who listened to Mr Leona's report and looked up.
Leona, with her knees bent and her face raised, glances at me only for a moment.
"I'll be honest. In my opinion, even the pre-awakening Karon was trying to force the defensive side to suffer defeat."
"So much so that he's strong?"
"Yeah, I can stand here alive because of him here - Usat"
Hmm?
Why is my name popping out of Mr. Leona's mouth?
"What do you mean, thanks to him? He's supposed to be a healing wizard, so he shouldn't have the means to fight..."
"No, he crossed with Karon only with healing magic and his physical abilities and even helped me faint"
"... Usat, is that true... Usat?"
Lady Norn is speaking to me, but my head, still confused, couldn't recognize her words.
Stay confused and look at Mr. Leona.
She tilted her neck to my gaze.
"Um, Mr. Leo... right?"
"Mm, what is it now -"
"Woman, was it?"
……
Lady Norn and the maid, who were in front of Mr. Leo, stiffened in tears.
Mr. Leo. - Leona, too, stiffened her expression with a smile.
After a brief silence, Mr. Leo slowly approached me and grabbed my shoulder.
"No way, you mistook me for a man? So far?"
"Eh, that was tall, and he had a voice over his armor, so it was perfect..."
"Tall...... wow, what did you call me Leo?"
"Well, because I thought that was the name"
With that said, Mr. Leo - Mr. Leona takes his hand off his shoulder without force.
In the meantime, the first time I tried to apologize and speak up, she squeezed out her voice shaking her shoulders.
"That's okay. Usato"
"No, you know..."
"I'm the one who got it wrong. Right, right. I can't help but mistake him for a man if he's taller than you and wears full body armor. Besides, you have such an un-female tone and a masculine personality...... So there's no need to apologize. Yeah, I'm the only one who was up there. F, F, F, I was twenty years old, and I was up like a child."
I don't know what words to say to Mr. Leona looking diagonally down and grinning humbly with a crying face.
Sadly, this emotionally unstable reaction has convinced me that this man is Mr. Leo, and I don't think I'm bad.
No heart, or I feel like Norn and the maid's gaze has gotten tougher.
If you look behind you, 'Uh, didn't you notice?' Nair and Mr. Alk send a glance.
And -,
"Amako, did you know?"
"Yeah."
Let me know if you knew...
No, I was wrong about the bad part. It's me.
When I was exposed to everyone's gaze, I thought about how to apologize to Mr. Leona first.
