Munou To Yobareta Ore, Yottsu No Chikara Wo Eru

Skills that can handle any weapon perfectly...... it seems I have that power.

I didn't even know because I held the dagger I brought today for the first time, and I had never used a weapon before.

"You can use your weapon more than any trained master without any workouts. It's hard to have such amazing skills. I was wondering if Mr. Lord was blessed. Good."

That's what makes me laugh and laugh at Rebecca, and I'm unintentionally thrilled.

The smile was definitely irregular now.

Mr. Crown, who asked about his skills, was happy with me.

"Levi was right. You had great skills. As a matter of fact, many skills are subtle. I wonder, for example, if I can speak louder than people, or if I can resist the cold. Lord's skills are no longer magical."

You also have such subtle skills...... I'm glad that's not the case.

But more than that, I'm glad the two of you are as happy as you are about yourself.

I sincerely think so now that I'm glad I didn't die.

Thanks to magic and skill, I was more than happy to meet these two.

My own story calmed me down, and I got something I wanted to hear again.

When unsure whether to ask, Mr. Crown smiles and nods.

Apparently everything is foreseeable, so I decided not to hesitate to ask.

"Mr. Crown, how come... he's still alive? Even though he's a king from a long time ago. And what about Rebecca? And why are you here?

"Huhaha! You have more questions than I thought. But we have to talk about it. Levi, I need an explanation. He's a better talker than the rest."

"I understand, Your Majesty. Oh, and Mr. Lord. Can you call me Levy? Because I'm more used to it."

"Oh, okay"

"Let's start talking. First of all, that is the magical power of His Majesty's time. As its name suggests, it has the tremendous power of manipulating time. It slows down when it flows to your body, and it's why you've lived a long time. It's about me for the second time, but I'm not really human... I'm a demon. The life expectancy of the Demon Nation is endless, so it depends on how many years I have served His Grace."

It's like a fairy tale. Besides, I couldn't keep up with my head.

I never even heard of time magic, and more importantly, it works too well.

Besides, Levi's the Demon Clan? I just looked like a normal pretty girl no matter what you think.

Levy keeps talking to me like that.

"And last but not least. In fact, this room in the basement is the basement of the former Castle of Vandemion. I did something about the fireplace, the interior of the room, etc. Because His Majesty really says so. And His Majesty... returned to this land to finish his life here."

"What...? Aren't you manipulating time? If so, there's still as much..."

"No, time is moving only loosely. If you stop completely, Your Majesty won't be able to move himself."

"That's the thing. The rest of my life is already about to disappear. I know... probably not that long."

"Yes... what is it..."

When I finally met someone who would treat me as a human being, he said that his life wasn't long.

Of course I'm happy about magic and skill.

But the feeling of loneliness was bigger than that.

You guessed how I was, Mr. Crown smiled gently.

"Don't look like that. There will still be some time, so why don't we talk a lot in the meantime? And when the injury heals, you should learn about magic and skills from Levy. To get back at the guys who've made you so cocky."

"Yes......!

――――――――――――――――――――――

This is how my life finally started to move for the first time in three years.

The table that surrounds the three of us, the non-deflective conversation, all sorts of things to learn from Mr. Crown and Levy.

All of them were treasures to me.

I never thought a day would come when I could have such fun talking to someone.

Levi taught me the abilities and uses of life magic and also accompanied me in that practice.

Mr. Crown taught me how to fight and how to think in battle, desperately moving his body that was stopping moving.

Happy, really happy time is just around the corner and a month has passed since I got here.

And it comes suddenly.

――――――――――――――――――――――

"Grr......!?

"Sire!"

"Mr. Crown!

Mr. Crown has been feeling worse and worse lately here.

It's even hard to stand, and the day goes on when you lie down in bed. And I'm particularly short of breath today.

I was breathing bitterly with Zeze just sitting and eating.

I had a bad feeling.

But I still think it's okay... that's what I thought.

But there was no rage in Mr. Crown's face staring at him like that, and he smiled as if he realized something.

"Apparently... the time has come..."

That's the line I least wanted to hear right now.

It was a sad word that would end this fun time.

"Mr. Crown... I knew... can't you?

"The rest... lived too long. That's why it's okay. But Lord, you must not die. Your life is coming. Perhaps it was fate to meet him on the road. Finally, I'm so glad I saved a future young man..."

"Mr. Crown... sooner! I missed you......!

It makes me cry again.

I could see you because of this, but you can't do it anymore?

I want to talk more, and I want to learn a lot.

Mr. Crown smiled gently as if he had guessed how I felt like that.

"I still feel the same way. I've lived long enough and thought I'd had enough, but I wanted to see Lord and live a little more. I've had this feeling for a really long time. But life still shines because there is an end to it. It's a long, useless thing, like forever. Levi, bring me that one."

"Your Majesty... can you give it to me?

"I was also thinking about staying asleep with you, but let's entrust it to Lord. They'll be delighted."

"Yes, sir."

With that said, Levi disappeared into the back of the room and came right back.

I have an old notebook in my hand.

Mr. Crown, who received a black leather notebook from Levy, stared nostalgically at it.

"Thanks Levi. Okay, Lord. This is one of the magic props, and there are a hundred types of weapons in it that are called legends. I'll give you this... It would be perfect for your skills, wouldn't it?

"The legendary weapon? I've heard stories about lost in past wars...... all here?

"That's right. I was... collecting more. Well, with a hobby. Take it."

The black notebook handed to me by Mr. Crown was heavy with all the pages made of metal.

When you roll the page to try it, the metal page is carved with the weapon's name.

"Look, Lord. The legendary weapons have tremendous power. Never misuse it. Open the page and if you call your name, the weapon appears from the notebook. Each of them has different abilities, so for more information... you should ask Levy"

"Your Majesty, I..."

"Levi... I got enough to thank you for the rest. Now support the load. I will not allow you to die with the rest. This is... my last wish. Please."

"... ok. Master Crown."

"Thanks Levi...... then let's say I sleep......"

"Mr. Crown... hands."

I can't walk alone anymore. I'll support Mr. Crown and escort him to bed.

Mr. Crown, who was still a good gatai when we met, was very small at some point.

That's what keeps me hanging up and my eyeballs getting hot again.

When he reached the bed, Mr. Crown lay down thanking him.

When I hang the futon on Mr. Crown, he says thank you again.

Every time I couldn't hear this gentle voice anymore, I couldn't stop crying just thinking so.

Mr. Crown turns only to his neck and stares at us both with those gentle eyes.

That's how I slowly opened my mouth.

"Thanks for everything, Levi. The rest came alive because of you. [M] So now you have more fun. Okay?"

"Yes, Master Crown. I met you… I was happy"

Tears overflow from Levi's eyes.

Now without wiping it, he stared at Mr. Crown.

When Mr. Crown offers his hand, he wraps it with both hands and nods over and over again.

Mr. Crown stared gently at Levy and now he sees me.

"Lord, I'm gonna need Levi. We've been dating for a long time. Let him have some fun... I'll take care of it"

"If you say so, and if Levy wants it… I will always keep my word"

"Um... Levi was actually the last thing left to worry about. I'm so glad I met Lord. Thanks."

"That's my line...... thank you so much......!

"Good. Lord, sing your life. The world... in return... you... must..."

Mr. Crown fell asleep quietly.

Really... it was like I was asleep.

In my grief, I imitated the smile of the legendary king.
