168. Secretly Approaching Darkness

~ Demon Boy Lugi's Perspective ~

Today's practical exercises didn't come in handy at all.

Lugi stayed in a room in his assigned student dormitory, depressed.

I used the skill "Shadow Cervantes", which can be called a trump card during practical exercises.

To be honest, I didn't think it would be as easy to spot.

Ariake Mihama is the king and principal of this neutral nation, Orti.

And although this is not publicly known, it seems to be the central person who saved this world's crisis from the evil gods.

However, I was a wise man, and I never thought I'd be able to repel all of my attacks by myself.

(Especially though I thought my technique was perfect, ah lightly...)

Well, that's how I gulped down the same thoughts and entered the spiral of depression.

If you see that noisy finesse like that, pat it all over your back and do your best next time!!! You're probably going to say that senselessly loud thing, but now she's gone.

Probably because of the training of today's teacher Ariake, the heat of training burned up. I guess I was training somewhere in the training ground.

(Oh, my God. It's a tribal savagery.)

I don't like the strength of her push. It feels like the attack of a human race that has waged war on demons. But on the other hand, I also felt that it wasn't just that.

(If she were there, she would look at me depressed and pat me on the back...)

Let's get into training aloud! But you would say that.

But,

"Oh, right. You're right about what you think."

Huh?

At that time, it wasn't the foolishly bright finesse that spoke to me, but the man from another tribe.

Moreover, it was very famous.

Hero Vivia...?

Why are you here?

I questioned it for a moment, but I recall that it may not be strange for me to be there.

Hero Vivia is the teacher's teacher and one of the members who saved the world together under the teacher's direction. Even though it was a good enemy for the demons, it was no longer necessary when the evil god was defeated. (I heard from the demon king)

It's just...

(Didn't you hear the door open?)

I mean,

(In the first place, I think it was locked because of my personality... Have you forgotten?)

That's the question that came up.

Looks like you're getting stronger, huh?

"I, do you understand... hahaha, you're embarrassed"

I'm ashamed to be seen by a brave man with such a look on his face.

However, the brave one laughed loudly,

"Idiot! I have to be strong, I don't know what that means!!"

It doesn't make sense?

"Yes, it is."

Hero snorted his nose,

"I wonder if you've been fooled by the humans since you fell for me, or even dazzled by that dragon nut!" The Elves will look down on you. "

"I didn't really think they were like that..."

Ahhn?

The brave man had a stupid face in his heart.

"Do you really think so?" You know that, don't you? They're trying so hard to outrun you, huh? "

Let's get out of here?

That's right! That's why no one wanted to invite you to train after you finished your practical subjects.

"Is that so...?"

I see. Maybe so. Ariake-sensei said that the reason for the loss in this battle was the weakness of the cooperation. So, what I'm not doing right now is trying to be strong without me?

"Oh, but I'm such a fool." I hate the idea of falling for someone! "Hehehe, it looks like you're a brave man." That's why I came here to give you a special boost. My sense of justice says I can't leave you alone. Well, I used to think that heroes were great enemies of the demons, but let's pour them all into the water and get along! "

- You think they're gonna outrun you? Are you sure? I don't know...... but)

I will chew the words of the brave one more time.

(Stronger. That's certainly necessary.)

If Ariake-sama's most disciple and brave master could give him training, it would be worth wishing for.

"If you get stronger, you can make your classmates gawk!"

The words strengthened my resolve. [M]

"If I get stronger, I'll kill them..." I understand, thank you very much. "

"Ahh, here it is." Well, I'll keep in touch from time to time. Of course, there's nothing anyone can say about this? "

"Oh, yeah, I see..."

Alright, before I finished, the figure of the brave Vivian had disappeared like a phantom.

However, only a single swing of the dagger was left there.

It's for protection when you have to. Keep it close to your skin. "

There is only one note that says so.

That's why I've had Hero Vivia train me from time to time since this day.

Don't say anything else.
