Kuro no Maou

"Oh, so you're saying I'm the only one who left a message?

At dinner, that's what happens when you summarize the conversations that took place in the lounge where four residents of the dorm gathered, including me.

"I'm sorry, Chrono! Sorry -!!

"Excuse me, Mr. Chrono."

and Lily, the momentum toddler who rides on her lap and half cries, and Fiona, who mouths a faint apology with the usual faceless expression.

"No, it's what it takes to empower both of us, then we should do it in full"

Lily and Fiona are going to do something similar so that I can take Mia's test to get protection.

I don't know the details of whether it was a detailed trial or training because they said it was a fairy and witch secret, but I heard that each had to be done alone.

That means Lily and Fiona are on a training journey away from Sparda.

"I'm going to be back in about a month at the latest,"

"Chrono, I'm sorry -!!

"Can I have a month? Isn't training something more time-consuming?

At least, my trial won't be over in a month.

Even if a monster shows up in a row, it's impossible to beat a Raspun-like guy in a series of fights.

"It's okay, I just need to gather some of the stuff I need"

"Hmm, like a collection quest?

"Sounds pretty much like it."

"Chrono!!

"Lily, it's nothing. I'm not mad at you, you don't have to apologize so much."

Lily, who hasn't been around since we talked about this story, I'll give you a head full of forgiveness for now, about 30% more love than usual.

"Ugh, don't you miss Chrono alone?

A moist eye would be against the rule. Lily, if you look at me like that, you're gonna shake your mind about sending me out happy.

"Well, I miss you..."

"Then Lily, stop going"

"No, Mr. Lily, that's not a fall."

It's supposed to be the same faceless look, but some cold-eyed Fiona held Lily round like a cat on my lap.

"Hey!

"Don't just let Mr. Chrono sweeten you."

Fiona grabbed me and twinkled me, Lily, and I think I'm just a sister who doesn't know what to say.

It's bad for Lily, who's going to cry for real, but you two shouldn't look smiling somewhere about that.

"Mr. Krono, let me tell you something, too, Lily."

"Uh, good luck finishing up and come back soon, Lily!

"Look, I won't be strong. Mr. Krono says it shouldn't help."

"Hey Chrono, don't throw it away. - Hey!

What's that distorted expression, and don't even take Lily seriously.

"Ugh... Chrono, Lily, I'll do my best! Wait!

But once it seemed connected to Lily's jealousy, she spoke majestically of her readiness on Fiona's lap.

"Whoa, good luck!

I don't know the details of what the hell I'm going to do, but there's going to be a lot more difficulty than gaining new power for now.

Because of the constraint of having to be alone, I can only support you.

"Chrono-ooh, ooh, ooh!

"No, Mr. Lily, because when I get back on Mr. Chrono's lap again, he's gonna want to leave."

"Grrr!!

Well, let's leave the two fairies and witches hanging out on the chair.

I glanced at the alchemist sitting at the front of the table and shook the subject.

"Will Simon participate in outdoor exercises?"

"Yeah, I'm gonna try and shoot a rifle with Will."

They say the outdoor exercises are special classes where students from each course gather to make up one unit and go monster crusades to the right dungeons in action.

"Have you decided where you're going to the dungeon yet?

"Yeah, even Ischia Hill. Same classic dungeon as last year."

Oh, isn't that where I just got here the other day, too?

It's an odd encounter, but as Simon said it was a classic, if it became a dungeon for action around Sparda and in large numbers, the options would be limited from time to time.

"I'm going to crusade the monsters around based in Ischia Old Castle, but it's going to be about base defense that I'm going to make it in battle, and if the monsters don't come, you're not going to get a gun."

Perfect sniper style simon appears to be on the lookout tower and gives the rifle a glimpse in one hand.

If Simon's after me, I'd never want to join the siege. It would be otch to be blown off your brain when you realize, at all, a horrible daughter, no, a child.

"Speaking of which, you saw a castle built on a hill, is that an old Ischian castle?"

After the bandit crusade, he went to the hills of Ischia to search for Greedgor. Of course, it ended in complete emptiness.

"Yeah, that's right, that used to be the front line of the border fight."

It was big enough to tell it was sole in the long run, so I see it served as an important base defense.

"Something about a dungeon. It's got a lot of history."

It's not like I grew up in Sparta, it's just the first time I hear all of it.

Even in these casual conversations, I'm going to deepen my knowledge of the other world a little bit.

But that won't happen without someone to talk to, either.

"Was the duration of the outdoor exercise, like, two weeks?

"Yeah."

That just overlaps with when Lily and Fiona are gone, come on.

"Brother, do you really miss me a little?

Think about it, ever since I met Lily, I feel like I've always acted with someone in the lead with her.

And when did that ever seem obvious, that I'd have to be alone like that? Well,

"Right, I miss you."

With a bitter smile, I gave Simon a little pity.

"Chrono - I knew Lily wouldn't go -!

"Lily, how many times have I told you..."

Will you keep this noisy and smiling time for a while to come?

What an unexpected concern for a woman to endure spending time alone in a quiet dorm.

"Excuse me, gentlemen! Just me. Leave a message at school!!

Avalon's princess bowed her head in tears toward the members of 'Wing Road' gathered in the student cafeteria.

"... what?

My brother Nero accidentally reacts to sudden apologies.

Other members reacted similarly, but only Charlotte has an ill-defined look as to whether she knows the circumstances or not.

"I mean, what's this all about?

"Yes, you know -"

Nell, who talks about the situation with a sad face, looks more like a tragic heroine.

"He said he couldn't participate in outdoor exercises in pursuit because it was a red dot on the test!?

It was totally deserved that no one could do.

"Sorry, you know, when I realized I was done testing..."

"Dude... how bawdy were you"

Nell with a slight vibe somewhere, but naturally I know as a brother that there is no gap between them at the level of submitting the answer form blank to the boulder.

That is why it is even more surprising.

"Well, you know, red dots are common."

To say the obvious is Kai Est Galblaze, who is bewitched by swordsmanship idiots and neros.

It sounds good when it comes to sword petitioners, living on swords, etc., but otherwise he is completely indifferent. It is a well-known fact not only in members but also in seminaries that his written exam grades are always desperate.

"I'm sorry about you and Nell together."

Although Nell has some poor and slightly dodgy guidelines, he also has an innate serious temperament and has ruled out good enough grades, except for specially bad subjects.

It is only natural that Kai, who has abandoned his schooling since the beginning, and Nell, who is trying his best, are not comparable.

"If you've decided to pursue it, there's nothing you can do about it now."

Saphir Marya Hydra tells an objective story somewhere as she rocks the violet brilliant ‘demonic eye’ behind her glasses.

"Well...... right"

Nero scratches and fries his dark hair just when he comes. There's no way he could have followed his sister out of the red dot after attending the test.

"Ha... sorry no..."

And it is also the person of the day who best understands its helplessness.

"I can't do this anymore. The problem is with the outdoor exercises."

Nero, Nell, Charlotte, Ky, Saphir, these five make up the adventurer party Wing Road. Putting one person out of it means a pure breakdown in party balance.

"Ugh, annoying that I just fell out..."

But what Charlotte is raising here is that there's been four of us.

"The four of us are together in this outdoor exercise, but Nell will carry it over next, and you'll be alone then!

"Oh, that's what worries me the most, too."

"Yep. Were you worried about that one!?

Naturally, four people other than Nell shook their heads once.

"The four of us alone have the firepower to do it in the first place. But I don't know about Nell, the healer."

I'm not naming Dada a Rank 5 party, I don't, but it's a lot of anxiety that basically leaves support-centric healers (Priests) like healing (heels) and fortification (boosts) alone.

"Um, even if I'm alone, the other students are with me -"

Outdoor exercises do not mobilize all students in that one time.

several times a year, and the students only have to participate in any one of them.

"Wing Road" was only decided to participate in this outdoor exercise, and it can be an unexpectedly flexible event, where students who drop off participation in pursuits and other unavoidable circumstances at red dots, like Nell, are just turned around for the next opportunity.

However,

"I don't know about the others, but if I skip this outdoor exercise, I'll be turned around next time."

Unfortunately for Nero, this friendly sister seems anxious if she doesn't stay within her own sight.

Most importantly, if you had a beautiful sister as innocent as Nell, a man would have to be overprotective as a brother.

"You mustn't, brother! Because you don't have to worry so much about me, I'll do something myself!

But whether or not my sister would appreciate that brother's heart is yet another matter.

At least, Nell didn't take good care of himself until his brother worked wrongdoing.

"Yes, Nero, it's too overprotective for boulders."

"Yay, Ciscon man."

"Shit, if you say so much, you're just gonna have to make a big deal out of it"

On my sister's strong objection, I had to back off with Nero.

Though I didn't seem to forget the iron fist sanction against Kai calling out for Siscon in good shape.

"Well, then, Nell, I'll leave you alone for a while, but what, uh, be careful"

"Yes, brother, don't be too impotent"

Nero decided to give another push of concrete attention to Nell's anxious reaction as to whether his advice as brother Imaichi was being conveyed.

"Watch out for guys, especially for guys with creepy tentacles"

"Uh, ah, yes"

Unfortunately, however, his brother's attention did not seem to pass on to his sister at all.

Anyway, "Wing Road" was the first time since its formation that it would operate without members.

At the same time, for the first time since studying at this Sparda, Nero has left his sister Nell for more than a week.

If Nell were in the Avalon Royal Palace, he wouldn't have cared for a week or a month or so and would have left it in peace.

But to Sparda, an alien land to speak of as an ally, no, more specifically, I have unspeakable anxiety to leave her alone in this royal Sparda seminary, where an elephant man exists.

Especially if you think that bottomless creepy guy named Krono is staying in this school dorm as well, that concern becomes even stronger.

"Anyway, watch out for guys, okay?

"Haha, it's Cisco after all -"

In the end, Nero's anxiety was never wiped away.

And not knowing such a brother heart, Nell will be dropping off Nero, who travels to an outdoor exercise with an angel smile.
