It was decided to head to the base set up earlier in the plain zone by two brave men, senior and Kazuki.

Our lifeguard leaves in a way that is later than they are. Dropping them off with the knights, I was carrying out my duties as deputy commander while preparing to be free of deficiencies.

"What's up, Usato! Is that the power of Temehe?!?"

"I don't know why!"

"Then just fight back and show me!"

A kick like Rose's anger kicked through my side of the head.

At the same time he gets a kick with his caged hand, he jumps to the side, lets the shock escape, then makes about two revolutions on the ground, then stands up, but he quickly buckles and manages to avoid a heel drop that smashes him from the top.

"Looks like you've become a master at running away."

"Not yet, it's coming...!"

Rose giggles and shows Nihil to me when I'm out of breath with a lot of sweat.

The day before I went to base, I had hands-on training with Rose - an act that would normally be suspicious of my spirit, but if I went that way, it wouldn't be a place to train, so now's the only time.

"At least hit him once!"

"Superior! If you can do it, try it!"

Honestly, I've been fighting at the extreme for the last hour, so the tension is slightly weird.

Leaving my voice to impulse, I turn to Rose, who hardened my fist.

"Why am I here..."

—— with Nair, who is giving me support on my shoulders.

"-- That's it?"

"Yeah, right. … thank you, thank you"

Rose looks down at me as I fall asleep in a big letter in the middle of the training area.

Is Nair tired, too, lying on the ground in an owl state, totally weak like a stuffed animal?

"Damn it, I want blood from you... otherwise it won't fit the bill...!"

"I know. I'll keep my word."

"Absolutely!?"

Enough to push just in case.

Well, I couldn't do it and they joined me, so I won't say no.

In the first place, why are you doing a mock fight with Rose the day before you head to the base you set up on the plain, because at the end you wanted to get used to Rose's movements with more physical abilities than mine.

That, as a responsibility as Deputy Head of Mission, we will consider the possibility of moving on behalf of the Head of Mission in the event of an incident.

I don't know how much Rose can replace me, but it's something no one else can do but me, so I thought I'd have to do it.

"Keep the healing magic on, but rest your body tight"

"Okay."

Nodding at Rose's words without looking tired at all.

"Just fine, I'll ask you now, is Burlin taking you to the battlefield this time?"

"... uh, it's --"

A while back, I asked Burlin if he was going to fight the Demon King's Army.

Instead, I made a de facto voicemail declaration, whereas Burlin slapped me on the leg angrily many times and showed his willingness to go to war.

... I snort at Rose's words, remembering that maybe I was overprotective of Brulin.

"Yeah. I'll take Burlin, too"

"Right. Then I left Burlin with a special armor for the lifeguard. Equip it."

"Huh? When did you make that...?"

"While you guys were going to talk to Lukvis. I let them make it for once, but it seems necessary more than anything."

Is that armor exclusively for Burlin?

... "Burlin Armor"? No, should I "Metal Burlin"?

I'll thank Rose for the name later.

"Thank you!"

"You don't need to thank me. That's what I did on my own. And one more thing."

Rose took one sentence out of her group clothes pocket.

It was thrown over. Seeing that, it was sent by Miarak.

"Miarak... Captain, what is this..."

"That was given to you personally. The kingdom is being sent something formal. The contents… Well, the brave man's weapon is rewarded with not knowing if he will make it to war."

"Really..."

Don't you know if you'll make it?

No, we're not gonna make it here, it's just better if they didn't affirm it.

Unlike when I was there, Falga is trying to build a weapon of bravery from scratch, so I'm sure it's quite impossible.

Thinking about it, I don't feel like blaming Master Farga for it.

"I hope I can think of something. The departure is tomorrow. Rest your body for tomorrow when you're ready."

"Yes!"

When she gets up and replies that way, Rose returns to her quarters.

I should have been busy preparing for tomorrow, but Rose gave me some valuable time. With all due respect and gratitude, I rise.

"Well, I have a lot to do for tomorrow, too."

Continuing preparations must be made to assume situations such as bandages for first aid and herbs, where the magic is exhausted and the healing wizard is no longer useful.

Rather, it's more important that way than my personal baggage.

"Wow... I forgot to get ready..."

"You can rest a little longer. I'll take care of it."

"Ahhh."

Activates healing magic while putting a nair on your shoulder that is rolling on the ground like a stuffed animal.

I look at the letter I received from Rose, laughing bitterly at the groaning Nair.

"Well, before you do, let's read this one"

When he sent the sentence, he also sent questions about the cageman, besides the brave man's weapon.

When I carefully unwrapped the letter and opened it inside, it contained a beautiful text that flowed.

Apart from the sentence sent to the Kingdom of Lingle, let me send this to Usat Ken personally.

I'm Leona, Miarak's brave man.

I understand that this is not a long front-line situation, so I'll briefly write down what I need to let you know.

First of all, the creation of two brave men's weapons by Master Farga may not make it during the Demon King's Army raid on the kingdom of Ringle.

As soon as it's done, I'm going to send it on Miarak's fastest ship, but there's no guarantee I'll make it.

And when it comes to your questions about the cageman.

First, is it possible to transfer or lend cages to third parties? But according to Falga, it's impossible.

It is the equipment dedicated to you in a true sense and an instrument that cannot truly perform to anyone else.

Exceptionally, I have the 'Spear of the Brave' I have, but this is because Master Farga created it to pick the bearer and change its shape, and your cage hand can't do that.

"--Though I thought my hopes were faint, I knew I couldn't"

Can you lend my cage hand to someone else?

Though it has no breaking power, this alone is an unusual cage of hardness. Though I thought if I could let Kazuki and the seniors have it, I might be able to help both of them...... I seem to have to give up.

"But you're the only one who can use this cage, right? It's just stiff, and I think it's only for protective equipment."

"It's enough to be a protective gear. Plus, it assists with magic manipulation."

Seniors will have Thunderbeast mode, and Kazuki will have extraordinary magic manipulation further enhanced.

"Oh, yeah. You want me to put my hand on your leg? Does that make your moves feel bad?"

"No, this is only the armor, so if you deploy it with your foot equipped, it's gonna be a big deal?"

Specifically, the foot is forced to deform into the shape of a cage hand...

... It just seems painful to imagine.

The bracelet itself doesn't fit in the ankle in the first place.

"Uh, if I could do the same thing as a cage hand from my leg, I think I could do a lot of things."

Sounds boring, squeaky Nair.

Not that I didn't even think about it, but the price is too great.

... but healing magic rupture clap not, healing magic rupture I wanted to try a healing kick by jumping on my leg.

Like 'Healing Kiwick!'.

Thinking about such an asshole, a brunette lifeguard, Knuck, comes from the entrance to the training ground.

"Hmm? Nack, what's wrong?"

"Mr. Usato, Mr. Thong wants to come and help you quickly."

"Uh, okay."

It's not a good idea to just get those guys ready, and I should get going.

I almost recovered my tiredness in a mock fight with Rose.

Standing up, I'm headed to my quarters with Nack.

"Mr. Usato, you're going tomorrow, right?"

"Right. Nak to the castle?"

"Yes, I'm the only one here, so Mr. Rose arranged it for me."

If we leave here, we'll be alone here, Knuck.

You can't let a twelve-year-old boy live alone, and Rose's judgment is natural.

"If you mean it, I want to follow you too... Usato and the others"

"Nack......"

"I know. I'm just a kid, and I'm not as strong as all of you. I know that best by myself."

Nack's whining with healing magic in his palm seemed to be pushing his emotions and killing him somewhere.

As a healing wizard, I can't take an immature knack to the battlefield at my age. No matter how understaffed you are, you will never give up on that alone.

"But I didn't think it was the only thing I regretted."

A knack with his face up looks up at this one.

"The other day, I asked Mr. Rose for help at the castle."

"Help?"

"Yes, a lot of people are paying out of the castle right now, and I'm pretty understaffed, so I can't help you."

I see.

Now that people are gathering at the stronghold, the castle is considerably understaffed.

They keep knights ready for the unintentional raid, but that still doesn't change much.

"Then don't leave the protection of the castle to you."

"What, such a big deal... Besides, I still can't make a big deal out of it..."

"Nack, you thought for yourself and moved on to action. I think it's amazing."

Maybe if I were in the same position as you, I wouldn't have been able to do the same.

I could have stopped thinking and just muscled and moaned at my helpless self.

"Mr. Usato!"

"Yeah!?"

I'm surprised at Nack, who raised his voice with a look like he had decided to.

When he looked up at me, he opened his mouth in confusion.

"When Usat returns, tell me how to do healing punches and healing magic bullets!"

"Oh, if that's the case now --"

"You idiot!"

I tried to teach normally, and Nair slapped me on the cheek with his wings.

He turned a gaze at me like Nair couldn't believe it when he turned a surprise gaze.

... is that what you mean?

I kneel to gaze at Knuck and lay my hands on his shoulders.

"Nack, you shouldn't learn to hurt people. Even if they're intact in the end."

"Usato......"

"You still have a choice. You don't have to be a violent healing wizard like me."

I don't know, it sounds pretty good to deny yourself head-on.

But this is also to keep Knuck from going the wrong way. For that matter, I don't care what you do to my heart...!

"But I..."

"Remember the training you did at Lucvis?"

"It can't be forgotten. Oh no... that training..."

... like that?

I don't know, don't get caught up in the wrong word.

Let's not worry too much, yeah.

"It's the same as then. If you can't find it alone, I can handle it with you."

"... YES!"

"Good reply."

Place your hands on the head of a strongly nodded knock.

His growth is yet to come.

For a time it was his master. As a position, we must see it through.

Standing up slowly, I thank Nair for her shoulder.

"Thank you. Nair, this is what you were trying to say."

"No, I'm not. Not really... but I'm glad it turned out... maybe?"

?

He starts walking again with Knuck, leaning his neck against Nair, who is whispering and squealing.

We'll leave tomorrow.

He will temporarily leave the lifeguard stronghold, and only Nak will be left alone in the kingdom, but he will be fine.

Anyway, he's Rose... a fellow recognized by our lifeguards.
