"Hemperoza's Magic Counter is up! Stupid!?

I accidentally screamed as I grabbed Hemperoza's shoulder.

The girl in front of you - the magic numbers Hemperoza has indicate "187". Because this number is enough to be said to be equivalent to an already intermediate level mage.

Magic numbers (Magi counters) are just numbers I use for convenience, but they are useful as a measure of the strength of magic. It is a mechanism for determining the magic power of an opponent detected by a magic yarn (Magi Wire) deployed around the perimeter by means of an autonomous driving technique (Apict), and displaying the measurement results in a tactical information display (Tactics) as "Magi Counter".

This gives you a rough idea of how much magic your opponent possesses, making it a pretty useful piece of information for fighting unknown opponents.

If Tingilhide or the Four Kings class are also opponents, it doesn't make much sense from measuring the numbers......

Usually a number from 0 to 5 for a regular person who cannot use magic, but it is common for a person who names a wizard to have a magic number greater than 100.

By the way, my magic numbers are over 800, and even Lentomia has a magic amount of over 1,000. Even Ergonote, the Magic Swordsman, has over 500 numbers, but we are "super high level" members who have defeated the Demon King in the first place, so we don't fly and have high numbers.

"To? Certainly something like this... the power of nostalgia is coming up!

Hemperoza snorted roughly and stared at her palm, then she turned a sparkling look at me.

"Your magic is back...! Like back then!

- Are you saying that Hemperoza's original magic powers were activated by the blood of the Dragon Man (Draguns), Plum's life-extending drug!?

My surprise. The numbers are still even showing signs of rising.

The higher the magic numbers in this world (Titi), the more powerful magic can be used, and vice versa, the more simple magic can be used. You can think of it as the same "MP (Magic Point)" as the game, but only slightly different is that magic caps are rarely raised due to experience, and are a mechanism through which magic is acquired by contractual rituals with God, the devil, or magical items.

In the case of Hempero, it probably doesn't apply to the precedent because of the special circumstance of being "restored to the child" by the power of the Ergonote's sword, but it seems certain that the drug triggered it.

"Ah... did I have this power back then? Sage, what should I do?"

Dark-haired dark elf quarter girl slightly clouded her expression and gave a bewildered look.

"Hemperoza?"

I thought you said you were a former demon cleric and a demon king's love wave, what do you mean? As Ergonote says, we may be gradually losing previous memories.

"I just want to live happily ever after with Sage, Pram and Sister Rio."

"Then why did you take your pills?

"Li... my sister Rio... she was complimented. You're amazing, Sage... didn't you just stroke your head..."

Hemperoza rubbed and swelled her cheeks, turning away from her gaze.

I did praise Riola during the day. He helped me think about life. When she was a solid child, she caressed her head unexpectedly as well.

"Sure it is, but that's why I can't believe I'm drugging you"

"If you're an adult, it'll help! When you grow up, there's so much to it... even your chest is amazing! Whether I'm glad I'm smarter than that...!

Oh... well.

The situation was largely understandable. Probably thought if you took this medicine, you'd get strong powers. I don't know if it's magic or adult flesh.

Hemperoza has no evil feelings, no fine dust, just pure - did you want me to compliment you?

"Damn. You're a smart kid, but you're an asshole."

"To!? What the..."

"You wouldn't have to do that, you'd already be useful enough, would you?

I crouched down and told him that with the same gaze as Hemperoza.

A former demon cleric who has become a little crybaby...... no, let's not even call him that anymore. I'll plush Hemperoza's tears with my fingertips.

And stroke his head as it is, hugging him all the time.

"Heh...!

"If you stay here, that's fine. Plum would love it, and so would I. It's... fun."

"Be wise."

"Your use of magic, tomorrow, let's think. Right...... now I hope I can use some useful magic. I don't want to hurt anybody, I want some gentle magic."

"Yeah...... thanks, to"

Once upon a time - the sin of trying to dye the world with darkness as a devil cleric was atoned for.

So from now on, you just have to grow up slowly as a very normal girl. with the pram.

My little hand was gently turned on my back.

At the same time as the overlapping body warmth was conveyed, I heard a whimper sniffing eggs.

At that time...

"Warning! Magic Thread (Magiwire) Cut! Unidentifiable Reaction (Annone) Detection '

A shitty warning sound ripped the silence apart.

"Nah -!?"

This is a lab!

"To the wise man!? I also... felt... this...?

"Hemperoza goes to Plum's room!

I jumped out when I screamed.

Riola glances in surprise at the sound and voice that opens the door vigorously. Thin underwear, but I don't mind grabbing that shoulder and saying, "Hide in my room!," he said out loud and ran down the stairs.

The lab is further down the hallway.

In the meantime, tactical information display (tactics) also indicates an unidentified "presence" that appeared in the hall. Its magic index is slight but steadily increasing.

3... 10... 50... and.

"Hey, what's this!?

When I open the lab door, I scream unexpectedly at the sight that popped into my eyes.

Numerous "black magic threads (magiwires)" overflowed from the synthetic "wine barrel", then crawled around the perimeter.

Sprinkling gobbles, bubbles and mucus like a stew blown out of a pan, the fibers of magic yarn (Magiwair), which materialized so clearly and visibly, swept through the air and the floor as if they were each willing.

It can't be a different creature or a form of magic. It was the first object I saw.

- The sound I've been feeling for a long time, the magic fluctuations... is it all because of him!

There are all four wine barrels that synthesize the catalyst, but from one of them, creepy and abominable amorphous creatures, as if they were from the bottom of hell, were overflowing.

"This guy... in the depths of the wine barrel... you grew up little by little!

I chose the tactical information display (tactics) for the combat. You can't use flames or explosions, but you shoot in a reverse osmosis (virus) autonomous drive formula (Aprict) that disperses and erases the opponent's magic.

- Ware...... ha, darkness...... na...... li

The guy's been interfering with the direct prefix with something that's not his voice. Tactics are filled with one bright red warning display after another.

"Hey, no way... this guy!

This feeling, this cold, freezing, black wave of darkness...

"Demon King... Deng... Marn, Sa, Ma?

Looking back, there was Hemperoza standing there in a daze.

"Idiot, don't come! Running away with Plum and Riola."

A momentary gap was poked and a black magic thread (Magiwire) tangled into Hemperoza's leg. When you crawl around to taste the brown skin in no time, the black thread covers your entire body.

- Wagga...... yorishiro,............ ichib......

Hemperoza raised no voice during that time.

It's just staring at the hollow as if you lost me, ravaged by monsters like chunks of black rope.

"Damn it! This guy!"

It releases its own magic and melts black magic threads. Juh! and the noise and the chopped black tentacles disappear, but I can't prevent that from coming to Hemperoza next.

The contents of the barrel crawl in turbidity, wrapping around the pemperosa from the foot.

I bumped into a primitive, powerful, simple magic release and kept dimensioning it. I was just selflessly obsessed with releasing magic at the onslaught where I didn't even have time to choose an autonomous drive formula (apricot). But...

"Hemperoza, take it easy!

At the next moment, a black hunk of magic thread turned into a bundle like an auspicious arm just scrambled me out of the way.

"Guha!

I was blown straight to the wall and crashed into the shelf.

The shelf collapses, the medicine bottle makes a noise and rolls off to the floor. There was nothing I could do about it.

The black mass finally swelled up to the size of a human when he swallowed Hemperosa, and began moving out of the laboratory entrance to Zuluri.

- No...! Over there...... Plums and Riolas!

When I stood up, a sharp pain ran on my back and flank.

The creature also appears to have worn a black cloth, but the surface is constantly covered with black magic thread (Magiwire).

At the moment when even the girl's (Hemperoza) face was consumed by a completely black mass, I could see tears falling down her cheeks.

"Takeshi... Sage (Gugre)"

Hemperoza only moved her mouth and asked me for help.

"Hem...... Perosa!

I flew out of the lab after a black monster with my face in agony.
