A long day is over.
After capturing Mr. Jinya, helping Amako, and fighting Koga to the death, I fell to Hutu after healing Mr. Alk, who was wounded.
Just before I fell, I thought to myself, I guess so.
At the time of healing Mr. Ark, the magic was all over him, and his body was worn out. Rather, I was as surprised as I was to have stayed conscious so far.
So the next time I opened my eyes, it was on the futon in the guest room at Hinomoto's headquarters. I tried unsurprisingly to sleep twice in the nostalgic futon, but someone had dived into my belly as a scratch forced me to wake up.
For now, if I woke up beating the healing decopin into the bad guy, beside him were Amako and Mr. Alk, who caressed his chest down in relief, and more depressed Nair on the spot while holding his forehead.
Nair, what are you doing?
"Fugiuuu...!"
Forget people's language. I'll go through Nair with tears and ask Mr. Alk how long I've been asleep.
Apparently I passed out until about noon the next day. [M]
While asleep, the Doctor of the Beast Clan seemed to have taken better care of it with restorative magic, and had bandages wrapped around his upper body. Immediately after my healing magic completely healed the wound and removed the bandage, I leaked my voice "Ah" after wearing the clothes I had prepared.
"My uniform..."
The team clothes that were beautifully tucked behind me were worn out in the battle against Koga.
Small and large cuts and holes have been made in the shoulders and belly area.
I see that and wear another jacket prepared while depressed.
"Ha... I broke my team uniform...... they'll beat me up when I get home, absolutely. Hopefully we'll just have to half-kill him."
"Tell me what's going on and you'll see."
"I hope so"
You understand. It is.
But he said, "That's the mon that your immaturity invited, too. I'll beat you back," he said, "and the horrible thing is that suddenly they're going to taste all the seats in hell.
Nair transformed into a shoulder, and next door he goes to Mr. Hayate with Amako and Mr. Ark.
"So what happened after that?"
"Lord Jinya and those who followed him were captured, and then Mr. Hayate, along with his men, handled the ex-post."
"Followers?"
"It's not about the average soldiers who obeyed orders, it's about the Kingsguards and the researchers. After all, Lord Jinya seemed to be moving his soldiers unscrupulously, and distrust among the soldiers seemed to be soliciting them."
... I was throwing them away yesterday because they attacked me, but the other soldiers were lost.
Maybe if he really wanted to kill us, I wouldn't have followed healing magic on my own, and there might have been casualties.
"Amako's not hurt anywhere, is he?"
"Yeah. It's okay."
Asking Amako, she smiles and looks up at me and says so.
... Soft reaction? Somehow, it's a different vibe than before.
Oddly enough, I'm starting to feel like I'm walking close next door.
As I leaned my neck, Nair called out to me.
"Usato, I need to ask you something"
"Mm, what?"
"It's the move that knocked down that Second Legion leader, what is that... what?"
Is that what Koga fed you?
"The healing punch/type II," Continuous Fist ". It's a move that punches a healing flying fist multiple times at zero distance."
"... Wow, wow"
"Yeah, I know exactly how you feel all this time. This is a dangerous move."
If it turns out, my healing punch was made stronger by the cage hand.
But it turned into a more dangerous move than that.
Because this time the opponent was a highly defensive opponent... no, I had to use it because I was the opponent I had to defeat, but this move is definitely not a good one for people.
……
"Why do you look so unexpected?"
"No, you... you had common sense."
"I wonder what you think of me!?"
"Out of common sense"
You're rude, you owl! It's not common sense, it's off!
Don't let Amako say "Huh!?"!
Mr. Alk is just smiling and laughing...
"... ha"
I sigh at a lot of reactions, but I don't think it's been a long time since I've had this exchange.
Until a while ago, it wasn't even such an unacceptable exchange without other love, so it seems to me that it's irreplaceable that we can all talk like this.
We went to Hayate's place, exchanging exchanges that seemed nostalgic.
●
We headed to the square where we fought Jinya and Koga yesterday.
Mr. Hayate had taken command of post-processing there and had cleaned up or repaired anything broken in yesterday's dispute.
He smiled and waved at us when he noticed us.
"Oh, good. You noticed. How's your health?"
"Yes, thanks to you. I healed with healing magic earlier, so I completely healed it. Thank you for getting me to bed."
"Considering what you've done for me, I still don't have enough to give back."
Mr. Hayate, who once left the place to his men, moves a little further away from the edge of the square.
"After you passed out, this place got a little confused. Anyway, the defeat of Jinya, the chief of the clan, and the intervention of those who name the Demon King's Army and the Legion Leader. I couldn't help it, but today I'm finally settling down."
"Were the others okay?"
"Oh, of course. It was the injured who got out, but fortunately there were no seriously ill people. Sometimes things converged quickly, but I think that's about all I had to do because most soldiers had strays."
"Right..."
Was Mr. Hayate thinking the same thing about me?
Well, those are the people who live in places that have nothing to do with strife in the first place than the original. Perhaps it is rarer for someone with rough ideas like Mr. Jinya.
"That's right. What's going on with Mr. Jinya? I hear you've been captured..."
When he heard that, Mr. Hayate glanced bewildered.
Leaning his neck at Mr. Hayate, who is speaking, he opens his mouth so that Nair, who was on his shoulder, answers instead.
"Jinya sleeps with pills and helps her mushrooms."
"Help me sleep?"
"Just undo the power you took from me. Besides, if you let him talk, all you have to say is bad chest shit."
"And that's spicy..."
"I don't like the way I am."
I hate it.
Well, that's all I did, and maybe I said words that pissed Nair off while I was gone.
But to help Mr. Mushroom?
"So, how do you help Mr. Candlestick? I guess waiting for the completion of 'Twa' meant I needed it too?"
"Yeah, I couldn't move until I stopped Jinya on the boulder, but I can finally move the plan into action"
That's how Nair jumped off my shoulder and went back to looking like a brunette with red eyes.
"What I found out from my research on 'Twa' is that it is a magic tool that extracts the magic of the user and sticks it out to others. But users who have been exorcised by this will be forced into a permanent coma because the parts that make up their bodies are missing.... Well, I don't know if that happened because I left it in a runaway state or because of the twisted research again."
Pull out every magic and stick it out to others.
Simply put, I think it's a horrible story, though it cleans up that way.
"So what am I supposed to do?"
"Jinya got the power of a mushroom by 'twa'. If you use it the other way, you can restore the predictive magic and magic that's stuck in Jinya to the mushroom."
"... is that such a simple story?"
"Yeah. 'Cause I asked all the hypnotized researchers, and they're letting me help? Specifically, since the day Usato signed us, the tweaking of" Twa "to save the mushroom began."
"... Nair"
I look at her with surprise.
Taking my gaze, she looked confident after she tilted her neck.
Hey, you finally figured out how awesome I am? Can I praise you more? "
"Nair's not dodgy...!"
"Hey, what do you mean it!?"
I honestly tried to compliment you, but I kind of stopped because I think I'm on track.
But the inside was working really hard for me, and I admire it.
Let's give it a subtle compliment later. It's just insignificant.
"So, Nair. Can we get started already?"
That's what Amako asked Nair, angry with Punska.
"I'm ready myself. All you have to do is get permission from Hayate."
"Of course, permission is going to come out. That's what happened to Usat."
Help Amako's mother.
That day, this journey, begun by Amako's wishes, is about to end.
All I can do is hope Amako's mother wakes up.
●
Around the 'twa', which had been moved behind the square, was installed something of an enclosure, in which the researchers, hypnotized by Nair, prepare the device.
The first thing to do to help Mr. Canoco was to bring Mr. Sleeping Mushroom this far.
I borrowed the hands of the beastmen who had taken care of her so far, and put her on a stretcher to take her to a part of the square… shaped like a newly added bed in 'Twa', fitted with a wheel connected to the line between the limbs and the head.
And inside the remaining 'twa' --
"Jinya......"
Jinya, who was brought in asleep, is transported to 'Twa'.
Mr. Hayate looks sad at him like that, but we dared not say anything.
……
Amako looks anxiously down at the face of the sleeping mushroom in a quiet sleep.
Put your hand on her shoulder like that and talk to make her as relieved as possible.
"I'm sure you'll be fine."
"But... I, too, became afraid to predict... what if I didn't wake up..."
That would be scary. That I know the outcome of this attempt better than anyone else alone......
I can't tell you my attentive line, I just had to wait to be ready while I was beside her for now.
Nair, who was watching Mr. Jinya and Mr. Canoco with the researchers, looked back at this one away from 'Twa', whether he had finished preparing for the whole street.
"Here we go. There shouldn't be a problem, but just be careful."
Nair, who confirmed that we nodded, prompted the researchers to activate 'Twa'.
After a few seconds or so, a golden light is emitted from the gap in the outer shell of the 'twa'. A golden light flows from the line connected to Mr. Jinya into 'Twa', which again moves to Mr. 'Mushroom'.
Amako held my hand as I sat down and watched. [M]
Trembling little hands.
I perceive it and grip it back.
"... the light will subside"
After about five minutes, the 'twa' light will subside.
Seeing that the light had completely subsided, Nair approached Mr. Mushroom silently and looked at his body.
"The magic is back. The attempt was successful... but then there's whether she'll wake up or not."
What about Jinya?
In response to Mr. Hayate's question, Nair takes a glance at Mr. Jinya.
"Looks like Jinya's back to her original magic. You'll be fine because it's just back to normal over there, the problem is--"
"...... Huh!"
"Oh, Amako!"
You couldn't stand it there, Amako ran over to Mr. Canoco.
With a crying look on her face, she squeezed Mr. Canoco's hand, calling her mother with a squeaky voice.
I did everything I could.
I also restored Mr. Canoco's magic.
Later, if you wake up --,
"... ugh."
!
At that time, Mr. Mushroom, who should have slept all the time, leaked a groaning voice.
Amako, who had become surprisingly stiff, quickly opened her eyes thinly when she spoke.
"... ah, I, ha..."
"Mother,"
"Amako? It's totally early in the morning...... hmm? No, you don't. I do have 'twa'... then maybe! Ahhh!?"
She tried to wake up her body or force her upper body, but for two years, she returned to her original position to be bored because she hadn't moved.
Amako, who shook her voice like that, hugged Mr. Mushroom thoughtfully.
"Mother, I thought you might not wake up anymore... really, good...!"
"Amako...... Yes, you... you did your best."
I saw Amako, who said so in tears, with a surprised look on her face, but as soon as I had a gentle smile, I put my hand on her head and caressed her gently.
To cut it off, Amako cried.
Tears finally shown by a girl who never showed tears, hard or sad times.
It was the moment when she, who grew up disproportionately old, was finally able to cry on behalf of her emotions commensurately old.
●
After that, Mr. Canoco was immediately asked to see Hinomoto's doctor.
The reason for ascertaining the presence or absence of the effects of 'twa' use accounted for the majority, but it was also one of the reasons in view of her body condition.
She didn't move her body for two years, even though there was magic and nursing care. Because of this, muscle strength had declined significantly and now it was not even easy to walk normally.
The test found that there were no sequelae that had been lost to magic by 'twa'.
"Thank you so much this time, gentlemen. I'm still physically handicapped, and I can't even thank you properly, but please forgive me--"
"Yes, no. More than that, don't push it too hard."
"Mother, Usato is right."
I tell Mr. Mushroom, who lowered his head, to stop rushing with only his upper body up on the futon.
It's been about half a day since Mr. Canoco woke up. Me, Mr. Alc and Amako were called to the room where Mr. Mushroom was sleeping.
Next to Mr. Canoco, Amako is sitting, worried to see Mr. Canoco as a flicker.
"I heard a lot about it."
"By and large, what?"
"It's about what Amako's been doing away from here for two years, and this commotion."
That means you heard everything.
"Hayate, I've had a really hard time with you. If I had realized Jinya's nature sooner, things wouldn't have had to get that big..."
"I can't help but care. My mother woke up safe, that's all I'm glad for."
"Amako...!"
Mr. Mushroom holding his eyes as impressed by Amako's words.
After a dozen seconds or so, she turned her gaze to us.
"I really appreciate you guys. Amako tells me, may I ask your name again?"
"Ah, yes. My name is Usat Ken from the Kingdom of Lingle, Lifeguard Corps."
"My name is Ark, Knight of the Ringle Kingdom"
"It's Nair, the demon of use. Now he looks like an owl, but he looks like a person."
When I heard each and every one of them introduce themselves, the last time he looked at me, he gave me a smiling look.
"You cured me, Usato."
That sounds kind of respectful...... no heart or friendly.
"Uh, yes, it is. Were you conscious?"
"While I was asleep, when my consciousness woke up only for a moment, I saw you and Amako desperately trying to help me. With Jinya around, I could only inform you of the danger... but yes, um, you... hmm."
Hmm, and a mushroom who shakes his upper body to the side and observes me.
I get a deep gaze, and I don't know what the hell I'm supposed to react to.
Is it my fault that I have a kind of awesome bad feeling about it?
It's not like when I was in Koga.
No, rather this is like when Master Lucas of Samarial --,
"So how long have you been with Amako?"
"Huh?"
"Hey!?"
Me leaking a distracted voice and Amako leaking a barbaric voice.
Mr. Canoco gave us such a good look.
"Amako, did you think I wouldn't understand? My fox's intuition has gone through two years of sleep. I was already freaking out in these ears and I thought," Oh, my God. "
Mushrooms with confident arms. The fox ears on her head are also working well.
Maybe it's a fatherly mistake to judge a boyfriend of your age playing with you as your lover?
Amako, as upset as she could be, speaks to the words of Mr. Mushroom, who is too unexpected.
"Oh,? What, are you there?"
"Well, you can't hide things from my mother."
... Ah, this guy, that sounds unfortunate.
It is the first time in a long time that I recall the word "female distress" to a mushroom with so many doya faces that I want to set an example.
When she saw Amako, who was afraid, she leaned down with her face bright red.
"Everybody, right now, out of this navel, stay."
It's an uninterrupted word, but there's shame and anger all over its ends.
Our voices are low.
I've never had a nair. I'm shaking over my shoulder when I bump into Amako's reaction.
"Oh, but, Amako..."
"Tell me."
"Yes, I understand!"
Let me assure you.
Amako said she was more terrified now than Koga.
I don't know about that, Mr. Cannoco, and he's trying to stop us.
"What's wrong? Amako looks scared like that and ruins her pretty face. That? Why are you leaning over like that, with that hand? What, ah, hey, the tail--"
Pathan, and closing the fusima, a voice rang from the inside like a chicken's neck... or grabbed a fox's tail.
No, I don't know because I've never heard a voice grabbing a fox's tail, but maybe as an expression, I'm not wrong.
"But I'm glad you look good"
I am relieved by the mushrooms who are now leaking their voices behind the fusima asking for our help.
From what I've seen, it may take some time, but if we keep rehabbing, we'll be able to get back to everyday life. It doesn't work with my healing magic, but a woman with a strong core like Mr. Mushroom must be fine.
But there was only one thing I felt bad about. [M]
……
Mr. Canoco was helped.
If you're a Hinomoto now, Mr. Hayate will protect Mr. Canoco and Amako.
If so, will Amako stay here? Or are we going to the kingdom of Ringle?
The answer can only be given to Amako herself.
