37 ◇ Laughing with friends (top)
"Ah......"
Right.
I am convinced by his words.
I'm not sure yet, but we're best friends.
Where the two of us partied, it began as adventurers.
Phoenix said to take first place with me, and I said yes.
Even if I try to stay at the party more than that, I just get stuck more.
Still, getting out of the party without consultation is, in a way, a betrayal.
It's like rebelling a promise.
But Phoenix doesn't want to blame me.
What will now be done is the confirmation work.
Something that goes through reason and explores the drop of emotion.
"Alba, Lark, Lily... naturally, Bella is an important companion. But Lemme, my, our starting point was a promise we made at an early age."
- "I can be the best if it's a lemme. For the first time in a hundred and thirty years [the fiery brave] and the strongest [black demon mentor], let's be the best '
"But you couldn't have left me. I can't reveal my power, if I reveal it only to my people, I can't hide it around Aruba and I don't try to hide it. Because it can be used for appeals. If you can't do that, I'm still the [Black Demon Instructor] of your luggage from the viewer. And - [Title (Job)] cannot be changed"
God-determined aptitude. That's [Title (Job)].
Of course I can live a life of defiance. It's difficult, but I can.
But only adventurers are exceptions. [Title (Job)] It is a rule that registration is not possible.
"But you've come to fourth place. Almost there..."
Yeah. World-class when it comes to fourth place.
Even we were at the bottom of the list at first. Newbies start at the bottom.
Still, we ran up the ranks at a tremendous speed.
I first met Mr. Mira two years ago, and that's when I was thirteenth. But it had risen to fourth place shortly thereafter.
After fourth place, we've gone through a one-time rank update.
The result is to maintain ranking.
Why are we at a standstill when merit alone is no less than third place?
"That's why. Alba's grievance exploded because he stepped in fourth place."
Phoenix deserves the greatest [bravery] of mankind.
Everyone thinks it's not weird to be in first place. No, he said I should be first.
Sufficient track record.
Phoenix is superior in appearance, stature, own abilities, and contract spirits.
There is also a lot of exposure to video boards (TVs), and even the number of video views distributed is top notch.
Then why can't we get within third place?
Over third place hasn't changed my face for years.
But Phoenix is a [fiery brave man]. The [Warrior] of the Magic Sword, the [Hunter] who unleashes the "Divine Speed" shooting that goes unnoticed, and the [Holy Knight] with excellent defense, also have all the power.
"But if we could get up to third place in the next update, the ratings might have changed too"
If we could eat into the top three parties that boast immovable popularity, the wind might have changed direction.
[White Devil Instructor] Although there is no visual appeal, like Mr. Panakare's, to repair the Magic Body (Avatar) of a damaged ally.
Still, the top three places were all that valuable.
Crossing the top three pairs I'm in right now doesn't mean I can do it with my feet together.
Being within third place means that everyone is superior.
Of course, even if you go in, you'll get a negative opinion like 'I just ate in the popularity of [the fiery brave]' or something. But I'm sure many adventurer fans will admire that.
Because there are more people who know that it is not a place where you can go up to that extent.
"Yeah, but I'm telling you that wasn't possible"
Me and Phoenix were aiming for the best.
Best of all, anyone who has denied it until then will admit me.
'Cause you will.
Can you think of anyone beyond Mr. Aerial's party with incompetence in it?
Such thoughts themselves are an insult to them.
Then if there is a [Black Demon Instructor] at the # 1 party, then that [Black Demon Instructor] is excellent.
Even at Mr. Aerial's invitation, I'm sure the same result would have been achieved. It may be easier to convey.
If Mr. Panacare shows that he can't lose his total strength of the party, that's fine.
'Is that it? It's hard to tell, but thanks to his presence, he's able to attack smoothly?' What a gradual increase in the audience to change perceptions that way.
"That's... but"
"There's something other than track record and [brave] popularity that doesn't reach third place. When I think about what it is, I can't help but think of my presence."
"But the truth is, I could've gotten to fourth place at this speed because I had you."
"I'm not the only one who can help you. And the new Bella, she's amazing, too."
"Are you watching our offense?
"Oh, follow the screen."
without excess to the point where it will be cut with delivery.
"Then you'll see. Bella's subscription may have improved the screen appearance. But..."
Phoenix says.
"That's my fault, too, I suppose."
The Arubans are first-rate adventurers, but they don't grow dramatically like [the brave], nor have they been trained by demon kings like me.
We're the same age, and that's why we have limits to our efforts. There are stretches because they are young, but there are immature sides because they are young.
I was trained thanks to my master, and in addition to that, I am stretching my limit values and skills by continuing to consume magic for twenty-four hours.
But that's what I can do because I'm a [black demon mentor].
I wanted to be first with Phoenix. [M] As soon as possible. Naturally, don't find out what you're capable of.
So I used magic in the direction of making my people look strong.
As a result, my companions were supposed to show more power than strength, but my magic held them back where they were supposed to grow step by step.
Because "I can always get the best results without any problems at all" continued, "I made a mistake, looked at the problem, worked hard on the tunnel, and fixed it. As a result, we could not take the path of 'growing.
"I'm guilty of the same thing on that point."
With me missing, their movements corresponded to their age and the effort they had built up so far. We would have struggled with the difference from reality because we recognize our power more than we actually do in that state.
"But you've changed a little bit from the seven layers, haven't you?
"Oh, you owe that to Bella."
According to Phoenix, my rookie Bella proposed to come to the offense on the assumption that my black magic would have been useful.
"... heh. Did Aruba admit that, too? I can't imagine."
"Oh, you wouldn't have listened to me if I had."
Phoenix laughs bitterly.
"Right. But surely, as it is now..."
"Oh, Bella is brilliant, but she's only [brave]"
Fighters, that is.
"Well, I think you're exiting more than ever."
On the fifth floor, Mr. Bella. On the sixth floor, Lark and Lily. On the seventh level, three other than [the brave] are each exiting.
Their movements have changed, and compared to just after I fell out, they have improved.
That means we're going to fight with our original strength.
And they found that their natural strength prevented the overwhelming offense of Demon King's Castle.
Not so much that I don't have teeth, but if [the brave] hadn't been Phoenix, I wouldn't have made it to the tenth level.
"Lark and Lily seem to have revamped their perception of Leme. Alba seems to know... because it's him"
"I get it. But you're in trouble..."
"For once, I did not delude you."
Leme is a mutant [black demon mentor] like Mr. Panakare.
But more than in ancient times, superior [white devil mentors] were called saints, sages, etc., whereas superior [black devil mentors] were called witches because there were many on the devil's side. Besides, the finest caretaker is [Demon King], who has a history of turning cities into death capitals overnight.
It's troublesome just to be suspected of being a black magician, and as soon as you get attached to the country, rumors circulate, and in the end, the party gets annoying.
That's why I hid it.
It's not a lie at all, and it's easy to accept because there's a precedent like Mr. Panacare.
"Oh well."
"Reme, I..."
"Phoenix, don't say anything more."
The food is brought in.
I start eating fast, but Phoenix doesn't reach for the dishes.
Momogu. Momogu. Mogu...... too.
Uh, no.
Seems like we can't do this without talking.
"You know why I didn't talk to you. I didn't want you to talk about it."
I've known this guy since he was weak, crying, unintentional.
Sometimes I still take care of my old promises.
Well, I'm the same there.
"Assuming... assuming you guys get out as far as kicking me out, it's pointless to tell the Arubans. No, that's pointless. That sucks. I won't be in first place."
