Lesson 51: Three Companions

"By the way, why are we headed underground?

Sasha told me to head down the stairs for now, but I hadn't heard why.

"I want you to meet my people first. There are only four of us, including me."

"Four? You're going to stand up to a seven-star angel with four of us?

"It's not like we should have a lot of people. You have to be quite powerful to counter the Seven Star Angels. But even if you say powerful, it's only a story within the bounds of being human. Unfortunately, at this stage, we are not far from the power of the Seven Star Angels."

"Do you need the Mad Demon's Mirror to make up for that lack of power?"

"That's the thing. I just thought the four of us wouldn't forgive each other, so I called you. I've lost my temper."

Sasha spilled a bitter laugh as Lina held her. I'm sure the other three are in a situation where seven star angels took the soul of a loved one just like Sasha.

"Now it's time to be in an underground training ground, so this is how I'm getting you down the stairs. They're all about your age."

That means the other three are around sixteen, right? I'd like to forgive an age scam like Sasha's already.

"Can Sasha stay a child?

"Oh, because my people have already revealed that I am six years old and that I am a child born between angels and humans."

"... I hope so. Oh, maybe the three of them, like Sasha, are half angels and half humans."

"Don't worry. All three are genuine, pure human beings. People like me aren't like that."

"... right"

I thought with the word pure human beings, I am here now, Sasha, born between angels and humans, Lina, who has become a demon from man by my [Satanic covenant], and the reigning king, namely me, who is transforming himself into a human figure. From the edge, they would all be normal people, but they're actually quite a range of colors......

"I'm asking Sasha for one thing, but keep it a secret from the people I'm going to meet that I'm the king."

"... I don't mind that, but if I don't know you're the king, it won't lead to the image of the king? I suppose your aim is to make more humans aware that the King is a good being, to create a world where humans and demons can coexist?

Do you know that much? I'm still scared of the combo between [Chiri-Eye] and [Chiri-Eye]. I feel like they were fitted with surveillance cameras and wiretaps.

"It's too early to reveal who you are. I'll decide when to reveal myself."

"... well. If you want it, let's do it."

Even if you rose that I was the champion now, like when I went to the village for a part-time interview, it would just frighten me with fear. It wasn't until I realized I was a champion that I made some kind of distinction. So now is not the time.

"We're here now. This is our training ground."

Down the stairs there was as much space as the high school gymnasium. In the back court, the two humans are facing each other at a distance of about ten meters.

What you see on the right is a man with brown hair. My height is as average as mine is today, and it seems challenging. What you see on the left is a woman with a water twin tail. He is slightly lower in height and his eyes are half open, whether he is sleepy or a habit.

"Those two are Sasha's people?

"Oh. The man is Asta and the woman is named Sue. They're both quite powerful. Comparable to the Seven Star Angels - I can't even say that, but I have enough power to defeat the Lower Angels"

Sasha says as she goes down from Lina's hug. It looks like the battle has just begun, so let's see how you two are doing here.

"Activate Spells [Biological Summoning] and [Possession]"

Sue casts two spells in a calm voice. Then a giant monster emerged like combining crocodiles and bears from nowhere in front of Sue.

You were surprised by that, when Lina next door said, "Hih!" and screams adorably. Sue seems to be able to use a spell that calls for monsters.

"Whoa. Looks like this guy's out there worth knocking down."

Asta laughs invincibly at it. The monster is nearly three times as long as Asta, and a normal person would just be able to do it unilaterally.

"Let me not hesitate!! Spell [Electric Festival]!!"

When Asta cast a spell, something like a yellow spark wrapped around Asta's body.

"Is that... electricity?

"Sounds like it."

I answer Lina's whining. [M] That's a pretty treasured spell in the world I was in. This world still doesn't seem civilized enough to put electricity into practice.

Without being so timid by Asta, the monster Sue summoned set up a rampage towards Asta.

"You're in danger!

Asta jumps quickly to the side and flips it. Asta raised her left index finger and thumb, pointing her index finger towards the monster.

"" Thunderball (Thunder Barrett) "!!"

A chunk of electricity was released from the tip of Asta's index finger and struck straight into the back of the empty monster. The sad screams of monsters echo. Do you always train in this place that way?

"Asta! Sue! I'm sorry, but I need you to interrupt!

When Sasha screamed, our eyes were turned to us. Soon the monster Sue summoned disappeared from the spot, as did the electricity that Asta had wrapped around herself.

We walk to the court where the two of us are. No, Sasha should have one more buddy to talk about, but isn't he here?

"Oh, my God, Sasha, it was a good place because of you. Who are they?

To Asta's question, Sasha laughs furiously.

"Let me introduce you. Ute and Lina, who have joined us since today."

"Best wishes. Wait a minute, Sasha!! I told you I wouldn't be one of you!? Don't even add Lina!!"

I accidentally make noise. Then Asta saw my face as giddy. [M]

"Are you one of us? You look like a virgin."

"Who's a virgin! You're a rude guy!

"What's the difference?

"... No, I'm not."

I'm telling you, I dare to be a virgin, right? With the power of the reigning king, I can graduate with ease at any time. So don't make me cry. Me!

"Oh, don't worry! If you care, I will, its...!!"

"Lina?"

"... no, it's nothing"

Lina blushed and leaned down. I kind of guessed what Lina was trying to say, but once we're set to be brothers and sisters, that kind of statement is going to be problematic.
