The day after Chisato arrived in the kingdom of Vingle.

We haven't heard from the St. Real yet, so we've decided to wait in Mr. Sarah's mansion.

I can't go to the city either, so basically there is limited work to do, but fortunately there is a large square on the premises of Mr. Sarah's mansion where I can train and so on.

By the way, there's a shooting range next to it where Sarah was training her magic cylinder the other day.

"Come on, Kate. Anytime!"

"Okay. Okay."

Rifa and Nia stand facing each other in the middle of the square.

We're going to have a mock fight between the two of us, but before that, Nia won't be trained as a referee in childhood, so we'll start by temporarily restoring Nia's body.

"Nia's body is smaller than Leon's, right? Can you solve it normally?"

"Yes. The curse I put on Nia... I couldn't get rid of the magic, but I was given the“ word ”to temporarily get rid of its effects."

Hee.

I looked at Nia as she approached me, answering Chisato who was sitting next to me.

The important thing here is that words alone cannot extinguish the power of magic.

If it wasn't for Leon's limited character, me and Rifa's voice, the word wouldn't make sense, so I or Rifa's presence would be essential if Nia was to return to her original body.

... well, somehow I didn't have the opportunity to use it until today.

When she entered the ruins of Rifa's hometown, Ms. Bern restored Nia to her original state.

"Nia, just so you know...."

"It's okay, it's okay. I'm not trying to escape anymore, and I'm on your side."

"No, that's not it... because dirty words are forbidden, right?"

"I'm treated like a child even when I'm back!?"

I turn to Nia carefully. [M]

"Er, to you who's become a dirty adult."

"I don't know if you're going to incite me with words...!"

I thought the same thing the first time I heard it, but honestly, Nia was a bad guy when she was a Demon King officer.

After a few seconds, Nia's body is wrapped in light.

By the time the light had subsided, Nia had returned to her original appearance.

Back!

"I'll be back when the mock is over."

"Soak it in the finish!?"

You can have Nia remain in her original state, but Nia's face is known as a Demon King Army cadre, so there is a risk that she will remain in her original state.

"By the way, when I come back, the saying is," You were lovely and pure. "

"Why, it's a little romantic!! I'm going to fight!!"

Gradually, I returned to my chair as I saw Nia heading towards Reefa, making ice swords in both hands.

Chisato calls out as he puts Yuran down to his palm.

Speaking of which, Kate, where's Sif and Al?

He said, "I'm going to go see the garden with Kish."

"Oh, but are those kids all right?"

Well, I know the black cats aren't the only ones worried.

But don't worry about that.

"Hakuro is escorting me, so I'm fine. I've given you a lot of my magic, so if anything happens to me, it's fine."

"Kate, you're pretty overprotective."

"Hahaha, is that so?"

Hakuro is a spirit of the wind, so it is very strong on its own.

Besides, I'm relieved that I can rush to this site at any time.

Oraaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa!

Yes, I'm sorry! I won! "

Muqiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiii!!

Rifa and Nia are in a fierce fight right in front of us.

It seems to be fighting outside the square to avoid damage, so there are no aftershocks here.

Sounds like fun.

"I'm sure Nia would love to be able to fight her way back."

It's been like a child until now, so I'm glad to be able to fight with all my heart.

"Do you want to play a mock game with me after this?"

"Isn't Chisato and I incompatible?"

"Not bad."

Huh?

"Not bad."

Eh, is that so?

I'm under pressure from her when I'm stuck with my real face.

No, indeed, Chisato's magic can be applied quite a bit.

Even with my physical strengthening, Chisato has a tremendous talent for magic.

"Sure, you're right. I'm sorry."

"You should know."

Fluffy, slightly rough face.

I was too prejudiced. [M]

Then Io, who has the bucket with us, comes.

Ah, Mr. Io.

"I brought lunch and drinks."

Rice!?

In the meantime, Io, who is spreading drinks and lunch while holding down two people who are likely to interrupt the simulation that has just begun.

"Where's Sarah?"

"Sailor is in the Mansion discussing his equipment with the Technician. So you don't have to worry about eating."

Oh, that's why you saw the communications magic equipment before you left the Mansion.

Let's not eat lunch until the mock battle between the two is over.

Well, let's have some Io too.

"No, I...."

"It's okay, it's okay."

"... I see."

It looks like Io is eating here, too, because Chisato pushed him out.

Then, for a while, I watched the two simulated fights with tea from Io.

"What can you do with Io magic?"

"Is that my magic?"

"Yeah, I heard you could make flowers, but I didn't know exactly what to do."

"Of course, I've never shown you in front of Chisato."

In that way, Io basically puts his hand on the ground.

When her light green magic flows to the ground, the plants grow from where she touches them and the flowers bloom.

Having flowers that resemble a single round of blooming lilies, she shows them to me and Chisato.

"This flower, which has absorbed magic as a nutrient from the earth, has a variety of abilities. You can smell it, induce drowsiness... and restore your magic by putting petals in your mouth."

I think I can do a lot more.

"Yes, depending on where you can bloom, your abilities may change."

It's a better ability than support, but I have a pretty strong image.

Beautiful magic.

"... that's right."

……?

I was praised for my magic by Chisato, but his expression was somewhat unclear.

Only the image of blooming flowers precedes it...

"No, thank you. It's about time you two finished fighting, so let's have lunch."

"... yeah, let's do that."

Chisato nodded with a slightly surprised expression.

... maybe Io-san doesn't like his magic very much?

Though I doubted it, I turned my mind to the two men who were still fighting.
