Freed, Theon, and I leave the castle together. It was a strange feeling to be with Theon. I feel a little uncomfortable because I don't usually act together.

I have Cain follow me from a distance.

Sorry, Theon didn't say he had Cain.

I know you want to keep the transfer to another world a secret, but Cain is my escort. Most of the time, we're together, and Cain won't be convinced to leave first.

Freed seemed to agree that Cain would come, and in the end, he told me to hide and follow him.

I'm sorry to say that I'm hiding, but Cain doesn't seem to care, "It's more like an escort. Leave it to me," he said with a dependable smile.

My ninjas are really dependable.

"This is it."

I walked through my usual routine and arrived at Mr. Derris' house.

As for the passage to Mr. Derris's house, Theon was very surprised, but he was in a hurry because he didn't want to stop in the middle of the road.

Knocking on the door of the house, while worrying about Zion, who seemed nervous, automatically opened the door. Don't hesitate to go inside because I know it's about getting in. Freed followed me, and finally Theon.

"... this is the house of the witch..."

I entered a house where the smell of medicinal herbs stood, and as I walked down the stairs, I heard the sound of exclamation coming from behind.

Stop and look at Theon. He was impressed.

Theon?

"Ah, no, I'm sorry. The strange road just now, I was impressed somehow. Witches are in my world only in the history of the past and in the galaxy. No, there are many people who call themselves suspicious. But the witch here is definitely real, isn't she? When I think that I am... living in the house of such a person, my heart is filled with it."

Speaking of which, I remembered that Senpai Ziyuan had majored in history.

Speaking of past history, is it about witch hunting or something like that? When I asked Senpai Ziyuan, he seemed tired of telling me, but I think I should at least stop now.

The neighborhood goes through and continues to talk.

"But, did Theon meet with Maeza?" Even though it's not the first time you've met a witch, are you impressed? "

"I've definitely met the witch Meisa twice, but she suddenly appeared and suddenly disappeared..." It's fresh to be here to see you. ”

Oh, that's what it is.

I don't know, but I understand that it seems to be a Zionist problem, and I will nod for now.

Hello, Derris.

"Yeah. It's been a while."

Down the stairs, Mr. Derris, who had come to greet me, waited.

I haven't seen her since the port town of Wilhelm.

As she greeted me, she turned to me, Freed, and Theon at the back.

"- I see. He's a guest from another world."

"Ah, um... I..."

Theon takes a step forward to introduce himself. But Delice turned away and said she was not interested.

"I don't need it. I've heard everything from Maeza." I'm sorry to hear that. You were jumped into this world by his mistake, right? "

"Eh..."

Hearing the word "sarah", he opened his eyes wide. Fried, who was moving next to me, said in surprise.

Did Theon come to this world because of Lord Maysa's mistake?

"Oh, yeah. Maeza, you're making a crap mistake. I wonder if he felt responsible for it, but he jumped around a lot and had an arithmetic method for returning the man to his original world."

"... yes, what..."

"Normally, I would leave the transfer of people from other worlds alone." If that's a human error, then let's not talk about it. It was a failure of the same witch's people. I'm telling you, even if you don't want to ride, we have to cooperate. "

……

"Well, Maeza will be with you soon." Have a proper seat. "

Mr. Derris looks at the table. He nodded and sat down nearby. Freed and Sion also sat down on the chair. Mr. Derris also sat down in a troublesome manner.

"Ah, um..."

Theon called out to Derris. She glanced at Clinton and Theon, but she quickly turned away from them, saying it didn't matter.

"Oh my God, I'm sorry, but I'm not interested in you. I'm just trying to help Meissa. Don't get me wrong."

"Yes, yes..."

- Is it cold, Mr. Derris?

Even though she was deeply surprised by the unusual appearance of Ms. Derris, she remembered that she did not like humans.

She always treated me, Cain, and Freed with love, but she didn't like humans very much in the first place.

Theon is an important companion for me and Freed, but for Derris, he doesn't know his personality. Moreover, considering that she was only involved in Maisa's situation, she might have no choice but to deal with the salt.

- Yeah, we need to improve the atmosphere a little bit.

So, Derris-san!

I want to do something about this stiff air and raise my voice. Her voice, which was cold to Zion, turned into her usual voice.

"Hmm? What's up, Liddy?"

"Um, well. May I ask you a question? We only asked for your help. I want you to tell me exactly what kind of cooperation I should do."

“What, you didn't explain it to me, Maeza?”

"Well, I've heard that Wilhelm royalty needs special powers..."

Oh, you're right.

Specifically?

Asked to dispel a little anxiety, Ms. Derris thought for a moment and then smiled meanly.

"Ask Meissa for an explanation of the area." It's the duty of the surgeon to explain this to his collaborators. "

"Are you a surgeon...?"

"Oh, Meissa opens the door to another world." I told you before, didn't I? I know someone who could cross the otherworld on his own. It's about Meissa. "

"... ahhh!"

I remembered what I had heard from Mr. Derris before and nodded.

As soon as I met Theon, I asked her just in case.

I was wondering if there was a way to cross into another world.

In response, she replied, "Yes." However, there were at least three witches. He said that we need four or five people if possible, and that the conditions are strict anyway, such as climatic conditions and time.

When I heard that, I thought it was almost impossible.

However, at the end of the day, Mr. Derris said that there was someone who could manage on his own. I'll get to know Maeza and agree with her.

"You did say that." But it's quite difficult, isn't it? Are you all right? "

"There is this man who is a resident of the open world." Besides, I don't think it's impossible because Maeza said she got the aid. ”

"Magic tools..."

"It's a special magic tool that connects to other worlds." Honestly, I didn't expect to get that kind of stuff. "I don't know where I found it..." Anyway, because of that, we can manage. "

"Huh...? So, are you two going to use magic?"

"No, I want one more, if possible, to increase the odds a little." That's why I'm also calling out to Amatsuki. "

Amatsuki-san too!

"He was reluctant, though. Naturally, the witch is considered to be alone in the country. I broke that convention and came to Wilhelm. I told him to cooperate that much."

"I-I see..."

Amatsuki-san was originally the witch of Ilvane. But you came all the way to Wilhelm to maintain my knife. I was glad about that, but it wasn't a very good thing.

"Um... I'm sorry about that."

When I apologized unexpectedly, I was shocked.

“What are you talking about? You're not gonna apologize, are you? I decided to do so, and it was my fault that I acted on my own. He only pays for what he does. You don't have to be sorry."
