Shinka no Mi

Curse and determination

Left alone in the training field, I activated World Eye, a skill I had just acquired.

This skill is activated at all times, but apparently it is only the effect of the 'Heart-Eye', which causes the 'Sovereign' effect to be activated consciously.

I activated my skills and searched for a presence that would try to get away from this royal castle for now.

Then, within the royal castle, signs that would indicate Mr. Lewis appeared with a blue dot on something as if it were a radar in his head and, conversely, a red dot caught on the radar trying to get away from the royal castle with great momentum.

When the skill 'Enemy', it wasn't as detailed as this, but apparently the presence that is an ally to me will be judged by the skill on its own and displayed on a blue point, and the presence that is an enemy to me will be displayed on a red point.

Thanks to this, the enemy and allies are likely to be able to judge in an instant. But, um... can't we get some more information? It was in the skill description that I knew the details.

The moment I thought of it that way, detailed information about the red dots in my brain appeared.

[Origa Carmelia]

Born: Kaisel Empire

Race: Beastman

Gender: Female

Occupation: Assassin

Age: 8

Level: 455

Status: Slave

Aliases: Dusk Assassin (Twilight Assassin)

Three Sizes: -...

"Ooh, whoa, whoa!

I accidentally stumbled on the displayed information.

No privacy, no shit, this skill! I got too much detail data without joking!? And even three sizes!?

Of course, I haven't seen the three sizes and beyond. My ethics stopped it. Well done, me.

What I don't know about aggression, etc., is that I have to look into it with different skills? Well, still, if only this much information came out, it would be too good.

Anyway, that's a lot of scratchy data out there.

First of all, I mean from the Kaisel Empire. This is the country that summoned the Shoutaes, right?

The Kaisel Empire must have carried out a brave summons because it is the most motivated to crusade against the Demon King, and thinking so, the king of this country with the idea of coexistence with the Demons got in the way...... or something?

Besides, the assassin looks like a woman. Besides, he is an animal man, very young in age. It's also odd that the level is over 400 for it.

But I looked more at items of concern than that kind of information.

"This slave is a state... what the fuck?

Yeah, just that part, I wasn't sure.

Is that it? Is it a slave being?

I've come to this world and I haven't seen a slave-like being, so I thought it was something I'm not sure about...

If this is really a slave, I'm concerned about Shota's safety.

Because like the contents of Abel the Brave, they might just use it and do something to get rid of it.

However, I still can't pin the concept of slavery.

Even on Earth, there is an expression that they are made to work like slaves, but they are not slaves in the true sense.

I thought technology close to Earth was spreading because of the technology disseminated by someone of the summoned braves, but after all, if there are slaves or something like that, all I can say is that we are behind.

Besides, the word "slave" is unpleasant even for me from Earth.

As I think about it, the assassins are turning to the training ground where I am.

So when I turned my gaze to the entrance that leads to nature and within the royal castle, suddenly, a black shadow popped up with great momentum.

Seeing that shadow, he spills words unintentionally.

"Hmmm...... you really look like an assassin"

"Huh!?"

The black shadow that popped up was a small human form, wrapped in a pitch-black robe similar to mine. I don't know your face.

This black shadow must be the assassin.

Calmly staring at the assassin, he looked at me and was stunned.

"... hey, why... what I look like...!?"

"Yes?"

What are you talking about? It feels like I saw it, 'Why do you see me!?' but it's an atmosphere.

Twisting her neck at someone with such an atmosphere, the woman in the robe took something out of her nostalgia and threw it at me.

"Huh!"

"What!? Hey!? Suddenly attack!?"

I don't like it anymore.

Well, maybe it's natural to erase someone who has seen that person more than the other person has targeted the king of this country.

Besides, the other guy apparently threw two throwing knives at me.

I guess I'll just have to avoid it normally and disable it after an awesome handful. If you really hit him, don't let him disappear. Really, I feel like I'm quitting human......

Watching the knife coming at me, thinking that...

"Huh!?"

"To?"

My body moved out of nowhere, just like it did when I fought Mr. Lewis.

And so my body took it between my index finger and middle finger, between my middle finger and my medicine finger, and threw it back at my opponent without letting my hair in.

"Hey!?"

I've fought demons and defeated them, but I'm not ready to exchange my life with humans and beasts right now.

It's supposed to be the same life, but I really can't think of demons and people the same way.

I know it's such a sweet idea, but it didn't seem like I could do it.

That's why I myself felt such a tremendous fear for my actions right now. When Mr. Lewis, I really didn't know why, so it was a problem before I had such emotions as scare or something. But not now.

Perhaps the skill 'Reflective Defense' was activated, but that kills the assassin... I thought so.

But the skill 'Reflective Defense' was better than I imagined.

"Ku......!

The speed of my thrown back knife is not very, but it is not as fast as it can be avoided.

So I thought I'd pierce the assassin's body for sure... but my unleashed knife pierced the assassin's robe and pierced the wall.

Because of the speed and momentum of the knife, the assassin was pulled a robe and his body was stitched to the wall. Normally, I think a knife thrown back ends up piercing the robe, but my evolved body did the divine trick of sealing the opponent's movements without difficulty. Are you happy about this? This.

But as the skill's name suggests, it's done in defense, and let's try to be good this time. Yeah.

As he was forced to convince himself, the assassin, who had been sewn, took off his robe at once and got out of the sewn state.

"Whoa!"

And unexpectedly speak to the true figure of the assassin who took off his robe.

……

Because the assassin had dark hair, just like me. Moreover, the head even has something like cat ears, and from around the waist, the same black tail stretches as the color of the hair.

The assassin is staring at me like that, so I checked the assassin again very closely.

Dark-haired short hair, cat-like golden eyes. Young as age, very cute. However, since it now takes the form of a half-eyed eye, the cuteness is also halved.

I think it's probably the Black Cat Beast Man. It's a black cat ear, and the tail is black.

And that's her outfit, but it's like a sneak outfit, dressed in pitch-black clothes, with the same black collar-like thing embedded around her neck.

I don't know if there's a concept of ninja in this world, but I'm pretty sure it's an assassin-like outfit.

No... Nevertheless, I have the same dark hair as me and I feel awfully relieved. They attacked me, though.

Thanks to her, I found out that brunettes don't need to be that conscious.

When I was satisfied with the fact that I was able to confirm by chance, the assassin approached me at a surprising rate. Besides, there's a knife in my hand.

"- Eh!"

"Attack again!? Let's just calm down!?"

What horror is such a cute kid coming to kill you with a knife?

It was a moment when I put my strength into my legs trying to avoid it, whilst making a huge tongue blow inside me.

Also, my body started to move on its own.

"Hey! Wait!"

Totally, you're swinging by your skills.

I couldn't control my body, and when I grabbed the approaching knife with my left finger, I gently poked her head with my right hand.

"Huh!!??"

Just that, the assassin girl fluttered like she turned her eyes and collapsed on the spot.

"Oops."

I could hold an assassin girl before I fell to the ground.

haha...... is it true that the person is stunned just by a light poke, is it? Because the liquid that conveys this cheek is never a tear.

Think of something stupid and check the face of the stunned assassin again in my arms.

...... hmm. I don't see how sleeping like this is any different than a normal kid.

I trembled unconsciously into this world where such a child could normally hold a knife and try to kill people.

Until now, I didn't even want to be aware of that, but once again, I feel the horror of another world.

I was so scared of myself that it was not something I could tell you to keep the demons down, but still it was going to become commonplace to take their lives.

This is the scariest thing to do than get a blitzed status.

I was knocking them out because they attacked me, but I just realized that the very fact that I was getting to that idea was already unusual.

But that's normal in this world, and if you don't, you can't survive.

This place is not Earth anymore.

Even if you understand with your head, in your mind, it still seems difficult to understand.

He pulls his strength out of his shoulder, which he was forcing to stretch, and exhales.

By doing so, as I was unwrapping my nervous body, I felt the rushing signs approaching from those in the castle again.

Turning their gaze in that direction, the Valkyries came to this training ground, including the rugged expressions of Mr. Luis.

Mr. Lewis comes to me early when he confirms who I am.

"Master. I'm so sorry for the sudden, but can't you hope to return this time?

... You're making up your mind to call me master.

"Yes, it's nothing.... Ah, Mr. Lewis."

"Call me Lewis. No need to salute me."

Losing the power of Mr. Lewis not to say yes or no, I decided to obey his word.

"Uh... yeah. Bye, Lewis. Probably caught the killer attacking the king..."

"............... Yes?

To my words, Lewis took plenty of time and asked back.

Well, that's right. Everyone would be surprised if I suddenly caught the assassin who attacked the king...

With that in mind, I show my own assassin girl.

"Look, this kid. He jumped out of the royal castle with great momentum and attacked me..."

... Is that it? I wonder why. That sounds like an excuse.

But when he looked at the assassin girl in my arms, he opened his eyes with surprise.

And for a while, I'm pointing my gaze at the girl like I'm gonna observe. At that moment, in my eyes, the eyes of Louise seemed to shine for a moment.

I remember that gaze at the girl of Luis' assassin.

That's because it was the same as when Oki took the liberty of examining my status in the classroom, using my skills' appraisal ', before transferring to this world yet.

For a moment Lewis' eyes seemed to glow, too, because my skill 'Chili Eye' was activated, I guess Lewis' use of the skill appeared in my visible form.

Apparently, they're checking the status of the assassin girl. I thought Lewis couldn't use his skills. Or is it an attack based skill limitation? Either way, it's not normal at the point of killing off without skills!

"This child... Lorna"

"Yes! What is it?"

Luis, with a rugged look on his face, calls on Rhona, who was nearby.

"Her interrogation, please"

"Got it!

When I asked you to say so, I gave the assassin girl to Mr. Rhona.

Rhona, who receives the girl, goes somewhere as she is.

Nevertheless...... interrogation? Leave it to Mr. Lorna. Are you okay?

As I twisted my neck, being very rude, Mr. Claudia approached me.

"Leave it to Lorna, she'll be fine. I wouldn't do anything wrong with that girl."

"No, I'm not particularly worried about that there...... is it okay to leave the interrogation to Mr. Lorna? Oh, no, not that I don't trust you..."

Mr. Claudia laughs bitterly at me for being an unexpected excuse.

"Ha. I know what you're trying to say. But she's the best interrogator in the country."

"Is it true!?"

"Besides, Miss Ellis of the Alliance is offering a perfect master of the SM course to the advanced edition."

"No way here, Mr. Ellis!?"

I don't know where that demand is. Someone was taking the course! Besides, it's an awesome waste of perfection to the advanced edition!?

Could it be that some of the guys go learn how to get Gastle muscles efficiently?... Shit, I can't deny it.

I was wary of the fact that a course that I thought was not in demand was active in unexpected places.

"Anyway, Makichi. I'm sorry for you, but I had to ask you to leave this time."

"That's what Lewis said."

"Yes. Excuse me, Master. This one called you..."

"No, it's nothing. That's fine... is the king okay?

When I asked them that, they both gave me a harsh look at the same time.

"... the soldiers of the Magic Division took healing magic, so their lives were saved. But..."

To the unspoken Lewis, twisting his neck, Mr. Claudia took over the rest.

"... Your Majesty's eyes won't wake up."

"Huh?"

Can't you wake up? Now Lewis said that healing magic saved his life... but is it a physical problem?

I tried to guess that, but that was different.

"Makichi, because you already know Your Majesty has been attacked, I will tell you... will you shut up about this one first?

"Yeah, yeah. I didn't mean to tell anyone from the beginning..."

"Then let me tell you. The assassin who attacked His Majesty... apparently the murder weapon was a" curse "at that time."

"Jugu?

Leaning his neck toward a word he was unfamiliar with hearing, Lewis taught me.

"Master. A curse, as its name suggests, refers to a tool or weapon that causes harm to a person, in which curses, evil spirits, etc. were possessed. Some of the spells possessed by evil spirits and the like even make it easy for the owner and the like to die… this time, the curse of 'Sleep for a long time' seems to have been used, the knife"

"A long sleep......"

Curse, or... Speaking of which, Al was also negatively lucky because of a curse called 'The One Who Bears Disaster'.

And Al says, there was no means to break that curse.

I mean...

"... Your Majesty may never wake up again"

……

In a voice that seemed to squash all sorts of emotions, Ms. Claudia said so.

"... fortunately, the first prince, His Royal Highness Roberto, the second prince, His Royal Highness Zionis, and the first princess, Latis, were not targeted because they were in school."

Mr. Claudia says so, but he doesn't look fortunate at all and remains a dark look.

Lewis also has a very sinking look on his face because he couldn't protect the king.

... Is there anything I can do...

I don't think it's a standout, discreet or anything.

I think I'm purely amazing about this country, and even though it's been a short time, I've really liked it.

I don't know if the current king has good politics, or if the previous king has had good politics.

Still, this country, full of smiles, was looking so radiant.

Yet both Mr. Claudia and Lewis have a sinking look on their faces.

Until just now, it was a fun atmosphere, and it collapsed in an instant.

That's irrational, I can't stand it.

So if I could, I wanted to help you.

On Earth, I was just being helped, and I couldn't help anyone.

But now there's got to be as much power as that can do. No, there definitely is.

I was remembering the effects of all the magic I learned in my head if there was any magic to break the curse.

But no matter how much you look, there is no magic to break the curse.

... after all, can't you?

It was when I thought so.

Only one thing, I realized there was a way.

What is that method -.

"... if not, you can create it"

"Huh?"

Mr. Claudia and Lewis tilt their necks at my words like a little squeaky queen.

That's right... isn't this the time to show off my ridiculous status?

Me swinging by my skills and not even understanding magic properly.

Until now, he turned away from the mighty power and fled reality.

I got as much as I could, and I kept moaning.

So now I'm going to face it right.

My skills...... "Magic Creation".

This is the first step in confronting my power, the first magic I create myself.

I, with a caged eye of strong will, turn my gaze to both of you...

"Take me to the king."

- That's what I told you.
