Shinka no Mi

Louis' determination

'I'm sorry......!

Safe mock battle...... no, the demons bowed their heads to me after training.

Look at that, for some reason I'm not sure Routier has a subtle Doya face, though.

"No, no, give me your head! I don't care..."

"... it's not nice. Even though you are the benefactor of Lutia's life, there is blood all over your head..."

"Well... it looks like we haven't had much room since Master Routier went down..."

Taking my word for it, the gray-haired handsome and amazing beauty gives me a look of sorry.

Well, I know how the Demons feel, and I don't care.

Most importantly, this is how they helped me safely, so as far as I'm concerned, that's fine... I guess I'm sorry about that.

With that in mind, the gray-haired handsome turns into a serious look.

"If it's you, I can keep Master Routier. It would be safer than being with us.... regrettably. Please, give my regards to Master Routier!

"........................ it is a decision to come with a router!?"

"Yeah, but?

"My will!

'Nice to meet you!

"Haven't heard that already!?"

Besides, everyone bows their heads, so you can't say no! Oh, my God, you're Japanese who can't say no!

But the fact is, if Routier can still be targeted in the future, is it the safest way to stay with me?

I'm aware I'm flying myself, but I don't know how far that'll work.

"I'll do my best to protect you."

"Yeah. I'm counting on you"

Routier looked at me and nodded.

Well... then it's time to really go back?

Salia and the others may be worried, and most importantly, we have to go to the dungeon where Mr. Barna is asking us to go.

Looking around to tell Mr. Lanze and his fathers that he was leaving, at some point Mr. Lanze and his men were not seen returning to the castle.

Then once I was thinking about going back inside the castle too, Lewis came before me.

"Master"

"Hmm? Ah, Lewis. It's been a long time. I'm sorry, but it's time to go home, so can you show me to Mr. Lanze?

"Okay. I'm going to school with my master, too."

"Thanks - - Yes?

I asked back unexpectedly.

"Uh... Mr. Lewis? Now what...?

"So I'm heading to Barbados Magic School with my master too"

"That's not why, is it?!? What did I do to talk about it like that?!?"

Why are you talking about that when you asked me to show you to Mr. Lanze!?

Lewis, who got my scratch, darkened his expression more than he'd ever seen before.

"... in this battle I couldn't do anything"

"Huh?"

"Originally, I didn't think any other than [the Black Sacred Knight] existed that would stand alongside me, except my master, who became [the transcendent] and another step, stronger. That's why at first I rather wanted to be stronger than me"

That was the first time I met with Lewis, when I heard such a story from Mr. Claudia, one of Lewis' men.

He said he was lonely because he had no stronger than himself.

So when he lost to me, Lewis seemed a little happy to say he lost.

"But when my country to defend was attacked by its strong presence and I lost without being able to do anything...... I regretted it. Apparently I was helplessly arrogant and selfish. Fortunately, thanks to my master's friends, but if I stayed that way... I wouldn't have been able to protect what was important"

……

Louise turned a straight glance at me listening in silence.

"Master. I want to be strong. So much so that no one can beat you. So that I can protect what I want to protect."

That word of Louise resonated deeply in my heart, too.

My powers are definitely flying. That's so much there's nothing I can do.

But I don't know how far you're flying.

There may be more than me.

And if he attacks Sarias like that - I won't be able to protect him.

In fact, I don't know the power that that creepy man used, nor did my body react to the strange powers of the Demons.

It doesn't make a difference that I'm an extra force, but I guess I'll have to apprentice Lewis too and still be strong.

- Absolutely so that we can protect the Sarias.

"... ok. Anyway, it's gonna come with a router, and it's gonna be the same with one more now....... Lewis"

"Yes."

"Let's be strong together"

"Huh!... Yes!

To my words, Luis opened his eyes for a moment and replied so with a slight redness of his cheeks.

- I wish I could have been a little stronger at this time, but it was only earlier that I was reminded that my body was much crazier.

Well, I've got two more people with me, albeit what I'm going to be. That's crazy.

How do I explain this? You're definitely the one who gets all kinds of stuck-up from around Helen.

Well, I'm not complaining because I already said I'd take you.

But it's really not going to be a good time to go home.

So I asked Luise to guide me to Mr. Lanze as originally intended.

Then my parents and Mr. Lanze, and Zeanos were having a fun conversation.

"No, Makichi, thank you very much for your help."

"No, this way. Looks like our son is helping......"

"Really, you got splendid before we could see... there's something about Mr. Salia, and we need to cook red rice!

... It's hard to get mixed up in a conversation, dude.

Zeanos noticed me hesitating oddly because the subject was my story.

"Mm-hmm? Makoto. What are you doing in a place like that?

"Oh, Makichi. Come here."

"Ugh, yeah... you got along with Mr. Lanze sometime"

My father smiled when I asked him that.

"That's right. Dad, I've never known a king before. You can be proud of that."

"Right. I've never been inside a castle before, but it's really luxurious. There are a lot of maids out there...... how much is the salary?

"What do you think? I'm also curious about that, but does the maid here do the 'adorable' thing too?

"Already, Makoto. It's just Japan, isn't it? The people here are so sweet - they're real maids. Oh, let's get some pictures taken later!

"That's good!

"... I don't know, Makoto's parents."

"What do you mean?!?"

Mr. Lanze, who was listening to my fathers' conversation, has seen me with an indescribable look.

No, it's about our parents that are so sloppy so far! Maybe! I'm losing confidence, though!

When I exhaled one sigh, I told him I was going home to achieve my original purpose.

"Excuse me, it's time to go home. Salia and the others will be worried, because Bernard has asked me to..."

"Well... Oh, don't worry about Makoto's parents. I heard from Lord Zeanos earlier. I'm talking about wanting to move to this country for everything... of course I'm welcome. I'm just grateful that such a comforting being is in our country. The same goes for Lord Abel, who is helping the soldiers now."

"Thank you!

If you look closely, you certainly didn't see Abel and the others. In addition, I think the Gustlers have disappeared at some point. Well, I guess I'm back in the guild.

I feel more comfortable as far as I'm concerned because you admitted to relocating safely than that.

When I'm relieved, Routier talks to Lanze.

"King Lanzerf. I'm going with Makoto."

"What?... No, that was the story. I totally forgot, but if your minister is convinced, I'm not going to say it. In fact, it might be safest to be in Makoto's place."

"Yeah.... that, the meeting has been messed up. This time it was a coincidence [the Demon Order], but maybe it will be attacked by those who are eyeing us, the Demons. Still, will you continue to walk with the Demons?

That gaze of Routier was very serious, and Mr. Lanze also answered that directly from the front.

"Naturally. You can't do this to freak me out."

"... thanks"

Routier smiled small as if relieved.

"Well, then, Makichi! See you later! Take your time next time!

"Yes! Thank you!

"Then.... Zeros, Zolua, Laya, Rearetta, Urs, Jade. And then say hello."

'Ha! Be careful!

Next to me greeting Mr. Lanze and his fathers, Lutia also greeted the demons.

Then Mr. Lucius comes before the Routier.

"Are you..."

"I see you because of this, but unfortunately you don't seem to have time to talk slowly. Well, this is how I came back to life, and I can always see you. Let's talk slowly then."

"... Yes"

Well, Mr. Lucius is the first demon king, so both Lucius and Lucius have something to talk about.

But Mr. Lucius is right, if you want to see him, you can see him.

Unfortunately, Lewis also greeted Mr. Lanze where it was time to go home.

"Your Majesty, I will allow you time for your training"

"Oops...................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................

"So now..."

"Wait, wait, wait, wait! Oh, what!? I'm going as far as you!? It's my first ear!?"

"Because I just said so."

"I know you're telling me to hold on to the Newspaper Lian Minister...! I'm your boss! I know!?"

No way. Louise didn't seem to say a word to Mr. Lanze. No, Mr. Lanze is totally right!

In the end, Lewis convinced me to do the same.
