Then a little later.

We were approaching Zadria wearing the Aloha shirt that Lurii made us.

"Sounds like it's time to hide your magic."

That's how I activate [Magic Cover-up] magic on Illis.

I just disguised myself with how much locally tailored clothing, and if the Illis magic stays that way, I'll find out in one shot.

With this magic...... unless we can examine it in detail, the magic will not reveal the presence of Iris.

"... Mr. Iris' magic reaction has disappeared!

"Mattie, you could have done that!?

Lurii and Alma raise their surprises when they see the magic reaction disappear.

This magic, as the name suggests, is the magic that hides the subject's magic.

It's hard to use for subjects with enormous magic powers like Illis... but thanks to the enhanced magic circuitry when Gaius is resurrected, we can work it out now.

Nevertheless, it is not possible to fight while maintaining this, so it is necessary to remove it during combat.

"Oh. It's been available for Illis very recently though. … it's unnatural to turn it off completely, so adjust it a bit"

That said, I'll adjust the output of [Magic Cover].

Then Iris' magic reaction became as good as a normal human being.

Now that we're in the city, we shouldn't have to find them any time soon.

... The quality of the magic that is leaking is a little different from that of humans, so if you observe it carefully, you will find out.

With that in mind, I confirm the magic in the city.

"... look, isn't there a demon clan"

"You don't see that kind of magic reaction..."

"After all, did that magic kill you?

Neither does Lurii and Alma seem to be able to find the Demonic Magic Reaction.

But I can't stay alert yet.

"Advanced Demons are also highly capable of covering up magic. If they're going to hide their magic, they won't be able to find it until they're pretty close."

"I had an image of the Demon Clan that I couldn't hide much from..."

"Oh. It's hard to hide it when it's as magical as the Demons, and you don't usually have to hide it.... but I think he's hiding it now. Anyway, right after the death of 1,200 demons."

And... perhaps the Demons should be quite alert to their surroundings now.

Anyway, the Eye of Heaven is right after all the demons around us were wiped out.

Perhaps the Demons do not know the Eye of Heaven.

That's my original magic... I mean, magic that hasn't been used in the last few thousand years.

If you take it to the Demons, suddenly an unintelligible attack descends and your countrymen are wiped out...

... In this situation, it's better not to be alarmed.

At least you'll do enough to hide your magic from undetected enemies who don't know how to do it.

"If you ask me, you do look like you're hiding..."

"It's a little inconvenient not to be able to detect magic."

With that said, Lurii explores the surrounding magic reactions again.

But I still don't see a magic reaction.

"... but it's not all bad"

"Something good?

"Oh. I'm putting it on Illis, for example. [Magic Cover-up] But... When 'Active Detection' is used, you'll find out in one shot"

[Magic Cover-up] is a magic that escapes' passive detection 'by annihilating the magic the subject is releasing along the way.

However, [Magic Cover-up] even erases the magic of "Active Detection", so when "Active Detection" is used, there is an unnatural situation in which no magic returns at all...

There are ways to solve this problem, but in the case of Illis, there's too much magic to use.

"'Active detection'... is the one that releases magic from you and detects it with bouncing magic, right?

"Oh. When" Active Detection "is used, [Magic Cover-up] finds out in one shot.... but Active Detection is like telling you where you are. If your opponent will alert you to detection, don't be used."

I mean... this fight is about situations where we can't detect magic from each other.

"Eh, does it feel like we're fighting each other blindfolded?

"Sounds like it."

If the advanced demons do not hide their magic, then perhaps the battle in Zadria has taken the form of a magic detection to grasp each other's place and bump each other from the front.

Compared to that, situations where we don't know each other's magic reactions are easier to fight.

Simple power means I can't beat the Demons.

More parts of the technique can compete, which means an increased chance of winning.

With that in mind, I'll knock through the city gates.

Then… it turns out that there is a familiar magical reaction in the city.

This magic reaction is... close to Gil 'as.

"... No way, Gil 'as' magic reaction?

Gilás is an S-ranked adventurer in the Rajinian Union.

After losing to me in the rank-up exam, I should have studied unchanging magic and now had strength until I could defeat the Demon Clan by myself.

I wonder why that Gil 'as is here.

This is supposed to be the kingdom of Jesus.
