The Contractor of the New Sister Devil

""When you were in the park, you were cut terribly badly by me-you are not dead yet."

At that moment, the top floor of midsummer was shrouded in cold silence.

"……What are you talking about?"

"It doesn't matter if you are going to play dumb to the end-just don't regret it!"

Despite this, Takikawa remained unchanged.The blade bends the knee slightly.then--

"Hey, Little Blade..."

Blade suddenly widened his eyes and waved his hand at Takikawa who was at a loss.

If he held a sword in his hand, it would be a sweeping motion.That's right-Blade Geng does not have the magic sword Brynhild in his hand.but--

"————"

Takikawa went far away in an instant.That is something that ordinary humans can never do.Blade Geng smiled at Takigawa whose feelings had completely disappeared from his face and said:

"There is no need to be frustrated, Takikawa, that's a natural response. Since you didn't die in my continuous slashes, there should be the moment when I saw my power to eliminate Mio... If it suddenly became murderous, even Pretending to chop you, I think you will definitely choose to dodge."

Takikawa was silent for a while after listening to Blade's words.

But-he finally sighed greatly, clutching his head like giving up and said:

"Ah-ah, I thought it could go smoothly."

After speaking, I asked the blade more:

"—When did you find out?"

"I was convinced after everything was over. Thanks to your blessing, I have a chance to rest well... I have time to wrap my whole body in a bandage and think about many things in bed."

The blade even shrugged.

"The opportunity was that I took the White Mask in the park-after I knocked you down. When I walked towards Mio, my abdomen was pierced with a short sword by your subordinate "Black Shadow"... But I always felt that. Very strange. The upper demons who clearly commanded him have been killed, but they still have to continue fighting."

that is because--

"It should be the demon lord you serve to order you to recover Wilbert's power from Mio. Generally speaking, you should choose to retreat immediately and report the situation."

"But it is also possible to be punished for fear of failing the mission, so you should fight back anyway?"

"I did consider that possibility-but there should be other possibilities."

To Takikawa's question, Blade answered even more.

"That "Black Shadow" is not a subordinate of Masked White, "It may be a doll created by magic"."

If that is the case, it can explain the reason for the "Dark Shadow" staying on the scene."Black Shadow" doesn't have much strength, I'm afraid it's just a puppet that executes simple commands."Black Shadow" probably just obeyed Takikawa's orders and attacked the blade even more.

"...However, if the "Dark Shadow" is a magically generated doll, then other strange things will emerge. Like the welfare agency that was in the power outage that night, you would be surprised to see "Black Shadow". If it is a demon It’s fine for the clan to appear intentionally, but it’s impossible for ordinary people to see the dolls created by magic."

"That's the case. But you don't generally think that "Black Shadow" is not a magical doll, right?"

"However, it does have the value of confirmation. And if you are an ordinary human, you can't feel anything even if you are threatened by my murderous intent. If you just confirm it, there shouldn't be any problems, right?"

"But listening to your tone, it seems to be certain..."

Takikawa still couldn't accept it, and Blade said even more "yes".

"...At the welfare agency that night, when you mentioned the fallen Mio, didn't you say, "Her face is so red, she seems to be shy about something"?"

That is the truth.She was forced to get pleasure because of the opening of the relationship initiated by the curse of the master and slave contract.

So at that time, Kengen didn't feel anything wrong at all, and didn't take Takikawa's words to heart.

"But, thinking about it, it feels a bit strange. Indeed, Mio is a bit harsh on me. But recently, that guy often said that he had to go to the health room to rest in bad health. If such a guy blushes and becomes unstable, " I usually suspect that it might be a fever."

"…………So this is ah."

Takikawa put his hand on his forehead "Oh".

"It's a failure... After watching Naruse's strange reaction several times, I immediately understood that it was related to the dream monster of her attendant. So instead of pretending to be ignorant, it's a lot harder to resist laughing. Originally I want to pretend to be more natural... I didn't expect it, but made myself gaffe."

Takikawa smiled helplessly.

"—And then? What do you want, Xiao Jian?"

Takikawa asked with a miserable smile on his face.

"If you want to continue the battle in the park here, I don't care!"

In an instant, the atmosphere between Blade and Takigawa became tense.As if the quiet top floor instantly turned into a battlefield.

After the two sides confronted each other for a while, the blade changer moved first.He relaxed and laughed "Oh".

"...Forget it. Now I, even if I play against you, I won't necessarily win. And—rather than fighting, I want to negotiate with you."

"Negotiation...?"

Takikawa asked suspiciously, and Blade nodded and said, "Yes."

"You are probably sent by the current Demon King to monitor Mio. Of course, it is also possible to be ordered to urge Wilbert's power to awaken in the right circumstances. You deliberately pretend to be a human being in the same school as that guy. The purpose I can think of There is only surveillance."

Takikawa did not speak, and Blade took that reaction as a default, so he continued:

"The reason why you took tough measures this time is because a new family to protect Mio appeared—my character appeared. The power of Mio’s magic awakened because of the death of the parents who raised her. Then, what if I also encountered the same thing in front of Mio's eyes. This time Wilbert's power might be awakened because of that blow; so is your plan. For you who want to end the mission quickly, this should be An unquestionable opportunity. That's why you came close to me, right?"

"...Well, you are only half right. However, I don't think it is true that Xiao Jian is isolated. After all, I had to go to school in an unfamiliar human high school, and I was quite lonely at the beginning. I saw the first day of transfer. You who were rejected, I really can't stand it."

"...Is it that miserable?"

Unexpectedly, I was so isolated that even the demons who were enemies felt sympathy.

However—the corner of Jian Geng's mouth suddenly showed a smile.Because the murderous aura of Takikawa in front of me disappeared.

It seems that he is willing to listen to him.and so--

"However, the mission failed due to your impatience. The current Demon Lord, who has to get Wilbert's power anyway, is only monitoring you. If you accidentally kill Mio, the power is very likely. Will disappear with Mio. But your identity as a monitor has been exposed. Coupled with the failure caused by tough measures, your current situation should be very bad, right?"

"That's hard to say... As long as you kill the small blade, there shouldn't be any problems!"

"Even if you can kill me, you can't even kill Mio. You can't hide what you do. You should have nothing to do, Takikawa. So from just now, you just sighed here alone, right?"

Regarding Blade's speculation, Takikawa was silent with a frustrated expression.

This is a great opportunity, so I even made my proposal.This is the "negotiation" just mentioned.
