Master’s Smile

Episode 253, to the front.

I was returning to the capital of a small country.

It seems that the defeat of Lardina has devastated the Four Heavenly Kings of the Demon King Army.

As a result, many Demon King troops have withdrawn into the Demon King's country, so the situation is that a coalition of knights and adventurers dispatched by the surviving forces of the small country and the Kingdom of Evan are now attacking even within the Vasuil Demon King.

And I was in the capital of a safe little country for some reason.

Because you've hit the Demon King Army hard enough... but Cade seems to have been defeated by Coolin and Reese anyway, right?

Well, we'll get a fair reward for this activity, and maybe we can get a promotion from the Dark Alliance to the Grey Alliance for this activity.

Too much skill has been gained, and if you want any more, you'll be screwed by the other adventurers.

The pile that leaves is struck... what a circumstance to avoid, you have to be as good as that.

Though I also feel like it's not as effective as it fits in...

"Hmm."

And Coolin, who didn't have to be with me anymore, was still acting with me.

I'm still sitting on my lap, so my red hair tickles my body.

It's so sweet I've never thought of it before.

Maybe Coolin wanted to be sweet on someone for a long time.

After all, it's good to interact with members this way.

All right, let me ask you why you're in a good mood.

"Then you'll be in a better mood. They're not here."

Coolin, who says it's obvious.

Those guys...... you must mean Laradi and Sorgros.

They're acting apart from me and Coolin, going close to the front line.

He doesn't want to give us the handwriting, but he's also anxious not to participate fully. [M]

Laradi, Sorgros, and Coolin also had a huge controversy over who was going, but Coolin's "It's my turn now! 'It was decided that the two of them would go with a poorly understood gorish push.

"Hey, master. Now it's time to take a look around the city with me!

Coolin 'looking back and looking up at my face.

Mm-hmm. Right.

With that said, did you make such a promise before but end up flowing with Laradi and Sorgross intrusion?

I snort as I remember it. [M]

"Hmph. Then get ready... Huh!

Coolin stands up happy.

When I look at her like that and dust her...

"Oh, could you give me a minute?

…………

Coolin's face is dead.

It was a reminder of the past… but it was again someone we knew well who slowly and politely opened the door.

He was Anato, the summariser of The Army of Salvation (Yerkchilla), dressed in monastic clothes and with a gentle grin.

"... what can I do for you"

"I don't need you. Wow. I'm just here to see my master."

Coolin 'to see Anato with a horribly cold look, but Anato says it out cold too.

You guys... are you sure you're a member of the same guild?

You seem to be dealing with other guild members who are so unfriendly......

"True, it's been a long time. I'm glad I haven't been able to worship my master directly lately."

The look of Anato, smiling but creating a cold atmosphere that he had shown to Coolin earlier, had disappeared when he looked at me.

Nico and I are delighted to create an atmosphere.

"Ugh... I really don't like fanatics..."

Look at that. Coolin gets his tongue out and poisons it.

Yeah... well, fanatics are a lot of hassle...

What's more, it's also a big problem that I'm the one who believes in Anato.

We must improve as soon as possible.

All right, Coolin, tell him!

"Excuse me. If it's a great religion, there's nothing wrong with believing like crazy. Wow. Angelism and Satanism in the world are like shit right now, but hey."

"... well, it's a good thing you worship the master"

Can't this kid either......

I don't like it when my strong members seem less and less uncomfortable these days.

Anato's incoming bargaining skills were so skillful that he was easily incoming Mahoe, who was once the wizard of the Brave Party.

Don't repeat that grief (for me).

"Oh, yeah. I came to ask you a favor from my master."

Anato and I are gently hand in hand to say that.

Please? Of course, I'd like to take it as far as I can...

Answering that, Anato said with a delightful nickel laugh.

"Master, may I ask you to be more on the front line?

"No!!

Coolin replied before I did.

Plus, that doesn't end there.

He held my head in his chest as if to protect his treasure from Anato.

Or soft...... painful......

"No, no, no! I'm not letting the master do anything dangerous!

Yes, my breath...... Coolin! My breath...... Huh!!

"Say that, you think it's dangerous enough for your eyes already?

Anato, this is a dangerous time! Help!

"Ugh... well, still no! When I say the front line now, it's not in the demon kingdom!

Oh, oh... my consciousness...

"I know because I was infiltrating the Demon King's army, but the modern Demon King is pretty strong. Well, you're no match for a master, but you're dangerous enough."

――――――

"Come here for a moment ~. Oh, how long will you be holding the master?

"Yes, I do! Don't pull my hair!

.................. Ha!?

I seem to have finally been released from my soft spot. [M]

Take a deep breath and take oxygen into your body.

Hih, I haven't felt my life in danger in a long time...

When I looked around, there was Coolin and Anato, who turned their backs on me and talked to me.

"(I wonder if you're stupid? I would have explained it properly first ~?)"

"(P, you mean the gift?

I miss you...... But is that what girls are for?

"(That's right. Demons obey the mighty. For the master to keep the demon kingdom intact. Ha, I told you that the most reasonable and certain means is for the master to defeat the present demon king ~?)"

"(Ugh... but I'm worried... I mean, that's not a gift)"

'He' also has a lot of secrets for girls!... oh my god.

... Though I wasn't my age as a girl.

"(... that's no good if you're stuck. The world should be presented to us properly ~)"

"(Well, yeah. Besides, we might not have been able to hunt down the Demon King's Army so far if we hadn't suppressed vampire territory and elves!

Well, it's totally better than before, and let's wait a long time.

"(YOUR POSITIVE Come on, you're comparable to Van Peel, too)"

"Are you making fun of me!? I'll fucking kill you!!

The sudden shouting of Coolin makes me tremble. [M]

Bit, I'm surprised...... I mean, what's the sudden problem?

"... I'm such an angry member just because they say I look like an Alliance member..."

Anato floated something darker in bitter color than his usual grin.

I'm not sure, but the conversation is apparently over, and Anato asked me.

"So, what about the master?

Um, yeah...

Although the war is a little scary, I am also worried about Laradi and Sorgros heading to the front line.

Fear of war is no big deal if weighed against how worried you feel about the Alliance members.

I'll head to the front. [M]

"Mmmm. The harm in letting those guys go to the front..."

Coolin swells her cheeks and roars.

Anato smiled nicely and gave me words of encouragement.

"Well, good luck ~. In the shadows, I'm here for you. Wow.... all the time."

... Something scares me.
