Isekai Tensei Harem

Well, here's the next question.

Roger's gaze at me suddenly sharpened.

"Why did you let the enemy escape?

Eh?

"With all that power, we could have wiped it out. That way, we could cut the Empire's power."

Has the story changed?

Maybe I'm being blamed...?

"Er... if I'm thrown into a gap and taken hostage again ─ ─, I'll be able to escape while thinking about it, ahaha"

I laughed and made fun of it.

"... hmm"

Roger became a traffic cone.

Bad reaction!?

I answered honestly, but the answer may have gone wrong.

"Without that situation, you would have defeated the enemy wizard. You mean you were killing him? For the sake of our country, we can definitely kill our enemies, right?

Roger stares at me.

A sharp gaze that doesn't suit a gentle face.

I'm sure this man has killed somebody before.

I guess you've been through a lot of battles.

I may have been thinking a little lightly, to be honest.

With enough power to overwhelm the opponent, you won without killing them.

But if you join the Knights' Squad and fight the Empire Wizards ─ ─.

What happens there is war.

We killed each other.

Am I ready for that?

I wonder if I can kill people.

Of course, this is not Japan.

The ethics of killing people are different.

"I..."

How do I answer that?

The old knight's gaze kept staring at me as worthy.

"I want to be born. I want wealth and honor. I want to be praised as a special person of my choosing - that's the only feeling that comes to mind, and I don't want anyone to volunteer for this unit. It is the key to the battle against the magic empire, and it is a unit that can be said to be the flower shape from now on."

Roger's tone is faint.

However, the feeling of affection there was heavy enough to feel physical pressure.

Above all else ─ ─ A gaze that sees through all of me pierces my chest.

It's intuitive.

This man can neither lie nor deceive.

"But it's not sweet enough to serve with such a floating feeling. What we do is fight to protect our country. Protect what's important with any hand. If you're not prepared to kill them, you're not going to do it."

Roger was staring at me like he was waiting for my answer.

It seems overwhelming.

Ready...?

I may have come this far with a vague yearning.

I wonder if I deserve to be here.

"Your power is certainly great. But what about the mind? The Knights do not serve on an unprepared mission."

"─ ─ No."

I shake my head slowly.

In my heart, I said "no" to Roger's words.

The feeling of fighting Geisas comes back to my heart.

That's right, what I felt then ─ ─.

"Well, let's hear it again, Abel. What do you enter the Knights for and fight for? Can you fight the Magic Empire and kill the opponent?

"... I don't know. Whether or not you can really kill people when you're actually in the battlefield ─ ─"

In my words, the old knight's face had an obvious color of frustration.

"Still."

Continue without hesitation.

"When the Imperial Wizard attacked the village, I wanted to protect the people close to me... and I thought I was able to overcome my fear because of that feeling."

"... uhh"

The old knight gets smaller.

"You've changed your eyes a little. No, or that's your real ─ ─"

Uh-huh!

The wall blew up with a roar to obliterate the word.

"Hmm, what is it!?"

The wall ─ ─

Noisy interviewers.

There was a big hole in the wall.

"Don't wander."

Only the old knights are greedy among them in haste.

He stood up and threw out his hip sword.

"Prepare, they're coming ─ ─"

As I said, a figure appeared from beyond the rubble.

A young man in a black robe.

"Hmm, looks like it's ready. Knights of the Kingdom"

Speak arrogantly.

He's not from the Empire!?

"By order of His Majesty the Emperor. I am the wizard of the glorious magic empire, rank 7-4 [Adaptas Ig Sensus Rado]"

The wizard Rado speaks as expected.

"We are gathering people against the Empire... foolish, the Kingdom of Aisha."

With a mockery smile on the edge of his mouth, Rado pointed at us.

Light flashes on the fingertips.

Magic energy is converging.

"The Magic Empire does not tolerate disobedience. Only obedience is permissible to us. Therefore, you may die alone."

To tell you the truth, magical light was emitted like a laser beam.

Shit!

I develop defensive spells without casting a chant.

Explosive light that pops up instantly behind schedule.

Along with the sparkling sparks, the magical light that Rado emitted was thrown into my blue-white barrier.

"Well, how can you easily prevent my magic?"

Rado glanced at me.

"Don't shoot me suddenly. It's dangerous."

I'll look back at Rado, too.

The Empire wizard snorted and nodded convincingly.

"─ ─ I see, you. Guysus has reported that there is a sorcerer standing there in the Kingdom."

Guysus is the guy from the other day.

"However, if Gaius is 6 = 5 (adaptor measure), he is not my enemy, which is 7 = 4 (adaptor Igsense)."

"I don't know which is stronger, even if they call me that."

"Come, you fool our rank!

Rado immediately blushes his face.

I don't know anything about fooling around.

Well, come on.

But unlike last time, you're strangely calm, me.

Thanks to my magical abilities, I was confident that I would not lose to any opponent first.

No matter how strong this guy is, I didn't put any of that on my teeth.

I'm sure we can win.

No, we should be able to overwhelm it.

"Nevertheless, if the opponent is a wizard, I don't know what he's hiding behind his back. Just in case, let me be careful ─ ─"

Not to mention, Rado once again emits a magical light.

That's why it doesn't work.

I also reactivated the defensive spell.

─ ─ Hmm?

But Rado's attack passed over our heads and crashed into the ceiling.

With the explosion, the ceiling collapses.

You're going to wrap us up in a collapse, not magic.

"Uhhhhh...."

The interviewers scream.

Among them, only Mr. Roger is greedy. That's a lot of guts.

"It's okay. It's okay."

I calmed them down and widened the range of defensive spells.

Extend the domed defensive field long enough to cover all of us.

All the countless debris that had fallen into the field was blocked and stopped.

When I looked ahead, Rado disappeared.

Looks like we left while we were distracted by the collapse.

You're not going to run, and you're going to change the place to fight.

Or are you hiding somewhere and ambushing me?

"Abel, follow him. With your magic, we can fight him."

The old knight lowered his head to me.

"Let me show you your power."

A sharp gaze looks at me.

Hmm? If you show me the good stuff here, it could be a positive assessment for the exam.

All right, let's do it together.
