The Death Mage Who Doesn’t Want a Fourth Time

There are urgent requirements. Called by Schneider, Vandalu was impressed with a ridiculous presence in a hidden village that hides a new race and followers of Vida.

"I've been abducted, so I can leave it to you. Thank you, I'll save you, I'll return this loan someday."

In front of Schneider was a half elf, gagged in a blindfold and rolled up with a noose from shoulder to toe, like a bug.

There is a bitter smile around Dalton around Schneider, and Zorcodrio and Merdin in a bowed Risana.

"It looks like you've been decided to be assigned suddenly, but who is this? I think that treating you this way is a big thing in a bad way."

Schneider is generally known as an unreliable fanatic, with a noisy and unparalleled woman-like but never bent. In addition, the damage caused to the restaurant due to the complications is paid out exactly (by tearing it off from the other party), and the woman is not forced.

And since Vandalu actually knows his personality, he knows he won't do this in a meaningless way. So I knew it was worth doing this.

"Who do you think?"

"Yes ... are you relatives of the former emperor?"

Relatives of Maskhzal who were dismissed from the throne ... If there is any son, there is a reason to be taken away and taken away, and there is a reason to be wrapped up by Schneider.

"Sorry! The correct answer is Maskhzar himself."

"Is it yourself? That was unexpected ... Is it okay to contact me in advance?"

Vandalu did not even think he was rolling.

"Well, sometimes I'm lucky enough to be successful? That was the situation."

In Schneider's words, Vandaloo was convinced, "I see." Schneider, having learned about the facilities in which Ma ksar is confined or arrested, must have noticed that he had to move to Ma k sar or abduct him before he could do more.

Maskhzar is a common enemy of Vandalu and Schneider. However, abducting him indefinitely instead of killing him on the spot can upset the unstable Amid Empire, which has just been replaced by a new emperor.

Even though he has retired from the throne, it is not an enviable one. It is a religious coup led by the New Pope Erik of the Temple of Arda.

There may still be nobles and merchants who yearn for Mashksar, and many believe that this time the Mashkzar has succeeded in fleeing and has built up strength to return to the throne again.

And those who follow the new emperor will have to work to suppress the rebels, which they call the Maskhzars.

Probably it was aimed at it.

"No, it's a lie."

"Yes.

"Then, after finding a facility protected by the 'Yagaku 15 Swords' guys and hitting me,' There must be something ', the mansion was confining him.'

"I am truly sorry"

But Dalton and Resana, and Merdin and Zorcodrió, made it clear that it was a Vandaloo overpayment.

"... I'd like to say," If you can't take care of yourself, return it to where you picked it up. "

Isn't it possible to kill and process the corpse into a life dead here? "

"I'm still fine, but do you want to?"

"Hmm ..... No, let's keep it alive for a while. Something may be necessary. Then, we'll make a facility for confinement. Please give me"

"Vandaloo, if possible-"

"I know, Master. I'm going to be in a place where I can't meet Sieg."

Saying so, Vandalu decided to leave Ma skzar and return. He knew that he was conscious of Maskhzar and was listening to himself. I simply did not feel the need to consider Maskhzar's feelings.

Vandalu has never directly faced Maskhzar, but he was the ruler of the Amid Empire and his dependents under the law where his mother, Darussia, was sentenced to burning. He then ordered an expedition to the interior of the Border Mountains to the Milg Shield, and to the occupied Duke of Sauron at the time, the five-pronged serpent, the lightning sword, and the murder of the king who belonged to the Fifteen Swords ], And dispatched four people of "Mushi Army".

…… of which “King Killer” is playing as “Neck Hunting Devil” in the former Scylla Autonomous Region, and “Mushi Army” is playing an active part in Tarosheim's apiary and caterpillar farm.

Anyway, Maskhzar is still an enemy. Vandalu doesn't have to kill as much as Heinz because he is a "former emperor" and is secured by Schneiders.

The powerless Mashhakal is no longer an enemy of Vandaloo, nor of those whom he considers important. If you get in the way, you and your Schneiders can always stomach lightly.

So I just thought I should keep it alive as long as it has value.

"How is your impression of meeting him?"

Mashukusar sighed to Schneider, asking Gagged and blindfolded.

"Is it possible to say that you met with a blindfolded gag?"

"It's an idiot. It's at least compassionate. I tried not to say you idiot."

Schneider says to Maschzar who is still lying on the floor, saying he is out of heart. Maskhzal, on the other hand, was convinced that it was.

Somehow, whatever the time Mashuksar said at that time ... even if he remained silent, he was fueling Vandaloo's irritation. Because I feel like that.

"Then we'll be weeding around here."

Clinic staff instructed the adventurer boy to do so. The clinic where he works is not a clinic for injured or sick people.

You may see hallucinations, lose memory, or behave like another person by claiming another name because of an injury to your heart. [Mental pollution] It is a facility to keep sick people who have increased their skill level and hindered their daily lives.

…… Nominally, it's meant to be treated. Staff and their bosses, as well as priests and doctors who are supposed to actually diagnose and treat patients on a daily basis, will do so when asked.

However, few patients who have been admitted to this clinic have been completely cured and discharged.

Most hospital addicts do not expect complete cure. All they expect is to work as a prison to keep crazy families and relatives away.

In fact, the clinic had been asked by a nobleman to lock in people who would be inconvenient to be free of illness, and a staff member had heard rumors that they were receiving huge bribes.

He doesn't really care about the rumor, but he thinks it's a dark facility behind it. The relief of the gods displayed in the hall will also be crying. No, gods may not be aware of this facility and their very existence, because the image of God, which no one can pray to, has no will of God. Because it's a myth, the staff doesn't know if it really is, and I'm not so interested.

"Yes"

Despite the fact that he doesn't care, the man keeps explaining his work to the adventurer boy.

"Collect the grass you pull out into a mountain. It burns when it withers. It's out of town, and sometimes stray dogs come out.

In public facilities, affordable merchants and noble homes, chores such as weeding and littering may be ordered from the adventurer's guild. Of course, this is not to make adventurers with good physical abilities do it quickly. It is a charity for F-class children and adventurers who have lost their limbs.

However, since it is a charity, the reward is not high, the time it takes to fulfill the request is long, and the content is plain. Such a request is not very popular, and only this boy has received this request. …… Actually, there were subordinates, but they are refraining from bringing them in considering the effects on patients.

(Speaking of which, it was a strange noise at the top, though it's Dumpel and maybe something because it's an honorable aristocrat.

Oh yeah. I was told that I would be on guard to avoid contact with the named patient. But it is troublesome. I can't remember my name)

The occupational consciousness of the male employee was low as if crawling on the ground. Why should we keep an eye on adventurers hired for chores? It would be better for me to finish my work in the meantime.

"And if you talk to a patient from inside the building, you can just ignore it."

The man said so and went on to do his job without watching the adventurer boy ... Vandaloo. So the boy thought he would ignore the patient if he talked.

But that was a big mistake.

"Yes, I understand"

The staff man did not say anything when talking to the patient from the boy.

In practice at the Heroes Preparatory School, there is a problem of actually receiving a request at the adventurer's guild.

Of course, even if you are a hero preparatory school student and have the power equivalent to a D-class adventurer, you will not be able to receive demonic or thief requests because they are treated as minors while in school.

The same goes for escort requests that leave the city of Orbaum.

For this reason, many students choose to request medicinal herbs to be collected in the usual grasslands and forests around the city, and to hunt for ordinary beasts that are not demons.

Vandaloo wanted to do that, but when he entered the adventurer's guild, all those requests had already been received by other students and adventurers.

So, Vandalu received a job, "Weeding the Clinic's Backyard", which was left on the board where he put the request.

"So, Eli, these guys came in through the window. Bend the grid and be surprised."

"Hey, bend that grate."

"... Wife, does the lattice look like it's not bent?"

Amelia smiles happily with a red flower crown and necklace that someone has woven.

Elizabeth and Mahalia gaze at the grate stuck in the window, pointed to by her mother, decorated with flowers. Amelia's perception is that all windows in the room are fitted with iron bars to protect her from intruders, and in fact prevent the patient from leaving the room.

It had rust floating on the surface, but kept trapping Amelia. There is no sign of bending.

"That's why I said, 'If you do that, you'll be embarrassed by the servants.'

Interesting, ufufufu "

"Well, that's right. It's really interesting, but isn't it rude?

"Yes, that's exactly what Elizabeth says, right?

Amelia smiles happily, and Elizabeth and Mahalia stare at her standing eyes. In front of them are four cups filled with tea.

Usually, only three of them are drunk. But on that day, there was someone reaching for the fourth cup.

"From the point of view, it was rude to get into the room through the window. I will be careful from now on."

Speaking, Vandalu said his mouth to the cup. I think they use good tea leaves.

I remember why she was called "you" by Amelia and put intangible pressure on Elizabeth and Mahalia.

Vandaloo was waving his claws and shaking weeds like a lawn mower. Then, the grass that has been quickly cut is transported to the designated place.

On the way, I noticed a woman looking out the window.

She was in the room on the second floor with small windows, and she could not see her because she had a grate, but she realized she was a patient.

Because his eyes seemed too lonely.

So Vandaloo hurriedly finished his weeding work and crawled up the clinic wall. Because they were surprised at patients in the clinic and were told not to use magic. ...... It has been interpreted that it is okay to use even magic.

"Hello, what's up?"

"What ?! You?"

A woman looking over thirty, looking out of the window, looked surprised when she spoke to Vandaloo. And shouted.

"You are dangerous in such a place! What do you do if you fall and get injured? Enter the room early!"

"Oh, yes"

Vandalu, who thought it was right, decided to enter her room, as the woman said.

The bar is turned into a golem with [Golem creation] skill and bent, and the shoulder and waist joints are removed from the opened window and entered like a snake.

She rejoined her joints on the floor, and the woman told her to revert the bar to its original shape.

Then, Vandaloo enters the room and is welcomed by Amelia, who decides to talk.

"You, what kind of work did you do today?"

"Yes, weeding."

"Weeding? Even if you don't do that ..."

"Someone has to do it and I was asked."

"You ... well, I have to endure now. But if I'm ... sorry, you"

"No, don't blame yourself."

While saying so, Vandaloo was finding that Amelia's meaning of "you" was different from what she thought "you".

(Speaking of which, it was a specialized facility for treating mental illness. In other words, this person is probably confusing my husband with me ... It is quite serious.)

Vandalu doesn't know what Amelia's husband is. However, there is no doubt that he is a person who does not look like himself.

Nevertheless, the conversation continues without any discomfort. It is serious and definitely.

"Thank you, you know ... I feel like it's been a long time since I've talked to you this way. I've been with you yesterday and yesterday in this room."

"It's probably because I did something like a child to come in through the window."

Vandalu decided to talk to Amelia because it seemed severe. I don't know if it's a hallucination or a delusion, but don't deny what she believes. If you deny it, you may be upset with rage and embarrassment, or you may be stunned by shock.

The ghosts and ghosts that have lost their insaneness are learning about their hands. ... I don't know how to heal.

"Is that so ... yeah, sure. Yes, so what kind of flowers are blooming outside?"

"These flowers are blooming this season."

Vandalu reached out to Amelia and sprung out a number of buds. [Imaginative group surgery] Plants grown using skills grew quickly and showed colorful flowers.

"Well, a wonderful trick! It's like a small flower garden. I remember. I played in the flower garden with you as a child."

Amelia says she couldn't have met Duke Sauron, her former husband, Elizabeth's father, as a child. Because she and former Duke of Sauron are as old as their father and child.

As Elizabeth insidiously points out, "you" does not refer to the former Duke of Sauron, and even if Amelia envisions the ideal husband, the confusion between memory and delusion may be advancing.

But Vandaloo doesn't know that.

"Yes, I remember."

Vandaloo keeps talking to Amelia and continues to bloom. He grows tentacles, picks and picks red flowers, and weaves a flower necklace and crown.

"You, somehow, haven't your fingers increased? Why have your fingers increased?"

"That is, to make a flower crown and necklace to present to you."

"Well, thank you! Well, me too ... oh? This flower seems to be growing directly from you, but why is the flower growing?"

"That's because I grew it up to show you."

"For me? Oh, thank you, you! ... Oh? Are you so small and light?"

Amanda was hugged by Amelia, who responded without any particular upset.

"I was struggling recently, maybe a little thin."

A heartfelt letter arrives from Selenium, a girl of Dampel protected by The Five Colored Blades, and a close S-class adventurer, Schneider, abducts the former emperor with subsequent consent, and Vandalu's hardship I can't see the end.

In the letter, two replies were sent to Selenium. Write a letter that warns.

Former emperor Maskhzal is planning to block one "internal world", which is separate from the underworld, and turn it into an entire imprisonment facility. He never escapes, cannot search for information, and cannot interfere from outside. It is a complete prison.

For the time being, Vandaloo decided to ask Schneider for posing. He would try to refuse, saying, "What's so fun about seeing older people?"

"That's right! I'm sick, but ... I'm sorry, you. Keep struggling with you, Eli, and Mahalia!"

"Don't bother me, neither Eli nor Mahalia feel that it's hard to think about you."

While answering, Vandalu noticed. That women look like Elizabeth.

After giving the completed flower crown and necklace to Amelia, Elizabeth knocked on the door of the room.

This was explained by Vandaloo, who was taken to a hallway just outside Amelia's ward.

"I see ... I understand why you were in your mother's room."

"I hope you understand"

Elizabeth, who had asked Mahalia to take care of her mother and heard about the situation from Vandaloo, was convinced. I was convinced, but she had a difficult face with her arms crossed over what had happened.

"It's a great way to get out of that window with your whole body unjoined, to get flowers out of it, or to use it for a lot of things.

But anyway ... Vandaloo, please keep this silent! "

"I understand"

"... Is it true? Don't you talk to the Duke of Al Krem?"

"I will not do it"

Vandaloo shaking his head. Even if Elizabeth wasn't told, Vandaloo didn't carelessly talk about Amelia.

If Elizabeth wants to keep her mother sick for the sake of sight only, she may have suggested something else.

"Do you want to keep it secret for your mother? If so, let me cooperate."

Prejudice against those who have changed their minds is persistent in the world. Not so much among adventurers and mercenaries, but especially in royal and noble societies.

The fact that Elizabeth keeps Amelia silent about the party members is also her own appearance. But there was also a reason that he wanted to protect his mother from such prejudice.

"... I guess the reason we escaped from the pursuit of the Amid Empire, who didn't have much escort, was because of my mother's offering to the soldiers.

I knew it only after my mother was here. ''

So, Elizabeth was spontaneously exuding the secrets of the innermost heart, which had been silent except for Mahalia, probably because of the words of Vandaloo.

"I almost know who sent the rumors, except Ruder and his brother, Vedal, below.

You want to eliminate the possibility of your widow's mother remarried. I don't want a strange aristocrat to be the edge of the Duke of Sauron. ''

Elizabeth is a daughter recognized by the Duke of Sauron. Anyone who remarries his mother is not a member of the Duke of Sauron, but is deemed to have some influence. He would have hated it.

The rumorer would not have aimed at making an ugly ugly thing, so it would not have been supposed that Amelia would be sick of mental health and be admitted to the clinic, but ... It would just be.

In fact, Count Leamsand is also involved in Amelia's hospitalization, which Elizabeth does not know yet.

"So, I know she's gone and I'm afraid she'll be hurt. What if I don't understand me ..."

"Sure, it looks like you're seriously ill. When will you be hospitalized?"

"I wonder if it will be five years this year ... I'm getting worse all the time. It's as if I'm slowly falling a hill."

"I see. You may want to find out what kind of treatment you are doing."

"I don't know the details, but it seems like I'm prescribed every day. Why do you care about that?"

"Of course, to help Amelia-san."

Treatment of heart disease takes time. In some cases, counseling or a little thing may trigger a rescue, but in other cases it may not be cured even if it takes a lifetime.

Therefore, it is not unreasonable if you haven't been in good shape for about five years. That's probably the story of the Earth and Origin, where psychiatry is advancing.

In Lambda, for which no cure has been established, you should be skeptical that you have a really effective treatment. He doesn't seem to have told his relative, Elizabeth, about the treatment.

"Is it okay to help? I don't have to do that much because I'm at the same party. I can't thank you very much."

"I'm okay. I just do it because I want to do it. Even if Elizabeth says to stop, I will do it, but I can not guarantee it will be completely cured, I do not know if I will return to the original Amelia you know But"

Treating the psyche is a challenge for Vandaloo as well. As a result of eliminating all trauma, the mind may collapse and become a silly waster.

If it's a recent wound, it's still so old.

So you need to take some time. At the time of [Metal Mor], it took years to transplant soul fragments. Amelia may take several years to completely heal.

"Thank you ... but stop calling my mother by name."

"Fee"

Elizabeth pulls Vandalou's cheek, who is impressed but calls her mother's name.

"And what are you going to do if you say that you're helping? I can't usually meet here outside my family?"

"I have an idea about that. I'm going to leave school for about a week from tomorrow. I'll ask Pauvina for special training during that time."

"Think about--"

"You are in trouble!"

As Elizabeth was about to hear from Vandalu, a staff member rushed from across the corridor.

He is a staff member of a facility with a secret behind him, and has been instructed by Earl Leamsand to keep Vandaluo away from Amelia.

However, at the wrong time, the clinic had already requested the adventurer's guild, and Vandaloo responded to the request. The subordinate who ordered the lookout was skipping, and when he rushed to find him, he found it in the facility, in front of the patient's room, which was ordered not to come close. This cannot be panic.

"I won't treat you specially because you're an honorary aristocrat! Get out quickly! If you're going out straight, don't report it to the adventurer's guild!"

"I see. Please say hello to Elizabeth and Amelia."

And Vandalu was picked out obediently.

"Is it OK to think?"

Elizabeth, who was stunned at the vandalous being taken away, was anxious, but thought to hear from Pauvina tomorrow, and told her that Father had taken a sudden job and was returned.

On the other hand, staff picked up Vanderlu and wiped the cold sweat.

"Huh ... what happened? Just in case, it might be better to refrain from taking medicine today. You might have put something in the room."

Eavesdropping and voyeurism using familiars are common means. Report that you should give the medicine only after carefully examining it. Stopping the drug once or twice should have no effect.

With that in mind, the staff went back to the clinic.

The next day, Vandaloo was in the clinic where Amelia was hospitalized.

"So you want to be hospitalized for your son ..."

"Hello! I'm afraid my son Vandaloo is sick recently, so I'd like you to be hospitalized."

Darussa strongly emphasized the director with a twitching smile.

"Hey, Vandaloo?"

"Mom, the glowing people and the people of the water and the flames are dancing, and I can hear the singing from my body."

"Dr. Director, it has been this way since yesterday."

Since he is free, Vandalu talks about ghosts practicing dances to show in the shadows and Kanakos who are doing lessons in the body, but the director certainly seems to have a mental illness Was.

"Oh, that's serious. There's a letter of introduction from Duke Al Krem, and let's admit him."

The request from Count Leamsand is, of course, the director. However, as long as she was a clinic, she couldn't refuse patients with referrals from the duke, but had to accept them.

(I don't know what I'm thinking about, but it would be okay if I put it in a room on a different floor from that patient and watch it.)

It is a while before he realizes it was a big misconception.
