Maou no Hajimekata

Eunice couldn't believe that the woman in front of her now was just a village daughter.

I don't have a lot of muscles on my arms or legs. Standing and behaving, the actual battle is just that of ordinary people who aren't even trained. I don't feel magic. Eunice is not as sensitive to magic as Lil, but she can still decide whether or not she is a magician.

In other words, neither the knowledge nor the experience of Eunice had concluded that the woman in front of her had no means of combat at all. If you care about that, you'll be slashed and thrown away by one sword. The same goes for Eunice, where the battle doesn't even take place, slashing and throwing away immobile piles.

Nonetheless, Eunice's heart was terrified of Sofia. It is not an appearance. Something endless and unexplainable was alarming her with all her might that she was dangerous.

If I had been myself before I met Oulu, I might have pulled out my sword and slashed it. But in that case there would not be one body lying on the ground. There won't be anything I can't defeat, but I'm sorry I just can't. Sophia's smile had the power to have a hero and have such a hunch.

Eunice, go back to your room.

Eunice looks at Oulu worried. But those eyes said "no problem". Eunice nods honestly and leaves the room. She has felt the same kind of pressure Sophia feels.

Because the owner was an oul like no other.

"Beautiful."

After Eunice left the room, Oul uttered the word again.

"I will impress you with wisdom, Lord Oul."

I guess you took that word for sarcasm. Sophia also returns sarcastically.

"What makes me beautiful is Sophia, your heart. It's a black hatred that hates everything. I hate people, I hate the world, I curse myself too. That's a rare talent as a magician. You have the qualities to be a better magician than me. It's a shame to keep you just a village girl."

Oul grabbed Sophia's jaw and turned upwards. And whisper as if to cast a spell in a low voice, staring into your eyes so far away that your lips are likely to touch you.

"Choose. Will you grow old and decay as the ugly as it is? Do you do all that is evil, stand on a corpse, take a cursed, bloody path"

Sophia shook her body in a gaze that seemed clear to Oul's soul.

It was a joy.

Oul had foreseen Sophia, who everyone turned away from and didn't even try to see the surface, all the way back.

He peered into the curse and hatred, many times uglier than the burn wound, and regarded it as beautiful.

"- Oh."

Sophia raised her voice of joy. Not a voice that bites its own happiness. It was the voice of a woman when she offered herself to a man.

"Master Oul...... the path I want to take is your path. If you want to walk over a corpse, I'll kill it. If you're cursed and bloody, I'll rinse it. By my name, Sophilisia."

"Let's be good. Then you are my apprentice now. From now on, you will abandon the name of Sophilicia and name it Spina. Nellis Via Spina. That's your name from today on. And listen to the first teachings from the master."

Sophia again Spina knelt at Oul's feet and was baptized evil.

Sophia as a person is dying, and the life of 'Evil Mage' Spina is about to begin.

"Don't trust anyone in this world but yourself. Don't give me your real name, even if I'm wrong. Everything is for use only."

I wonder if so for Oulu, Spina thought.

"I'll remember the liver."

I don't even have to think about it. For Oulu, Spina is a pawn to use. And Spina wants to be a better pawn than anyone else. On his knees, Spina bowed her head deeply and vowed her mouth allegiance to Oul's feet.

"Lil, what are you doing here..."

Opening the crude wooden door, Oul shouted at the sight that had entered his eyes.

"Oh, my God, I didn't tell you to take care of Oul."

By Lil's side, Marie was crawling her little tongue into a sticky object with a swinging look. I thought it was carved out of sandalwood, and it had a strangely familiar shape.

"Look, it's still small, so if you use it downstairs, it rips, right? So I thought I'd educate you so you could just use your mouth. This is well done, isn't it? Oul-shaped tension shape"

Speaking of horny devils, it's a horny idea, but what are you teaching a girl who doesn't even go old, Oul lightly suppresses the head that hurts.

"More than that, I need you to plant it so I can do my chores.... to him, too."

Oul told the woman behind him to say hello to Lil. Nodding gently, Spina advances forward in front of the lil and bows her head.

"Beginning today, I am Master Oulu's apprentice, my name is Spina. Best regards,"

Lil turns his eyes round and looks at the spinner. Because its appearance was ugly...... but not.

Because it was so beautiful.

"Oh, what, I brought one of these kids"

Spina's wounds had been erased by Oulu's magic, and the beauty she had inherently had had had had been restored to perfection. As usual, there is no expression, but that in turn highlights its dolled mystical beauty.

"Anywhere would be fine. Anyway, remember the chores about Lil for the time being. They also cook around dungeons, cleaning, managing demons and traps, handling corpses, managing food, and changing sheets."

"You're finally free from those jobs! Yay! I said spina, remember your job well."

To the rejoicing lil, Spina replied without changing her expression even dust.

"The Master is the only one I follow. Don't get me wrong."

Shiatsu, and Lil's smile freezes. And he fingered Spina and raised a protest to Oulu.

"Oul! This kid has a terrible personality!

"Yes, that's why I made him my apprentice"

"Ah, this one had a bad personality, too!

Lil held his head, remembering the illusion as if Oul had increased to two.
