The hero magician wants to relax. He was too active and targeted for his life, so we'll start over.

Salvanen Magic Institute, Diggletto Empire.

General McTilla Shade was in a bad mood. The young generals of the Great Empire were part of a laboratory run by the Magic Army.

This laboratory in the western part of the Empire, under the command of the Magic Army, was a hub for the research and development of magical and man-made aircraft.

Analysis of man-made weapons in the era of magical civilization has progressed, and the Great Empire has developed its own Magic Machine.

To hear the results of the "Magic Manipulator Suitability" issued by His Majesty the Emperor and implemented by all Imperial Magicians.

The medical magician, who was facing Shade, was confused as to why the General himself had come to hear the results.

"So, what do you think?

The shade asked in a swallowing tone. The medical magician stretched his spine to wonder if the general confronting him on the battlefield looked like this.

"Yes, let me report from the results that your lieutenant with the General is capable of manipulating magical aircraft."

Shade's lieutenant, a sorceress named Selas. She wears a hood and avoids exposing herself in public, but her magical skills are excellent.... but there's something I don't understand.

"However, Your Excellency. As a result of her medical examinations, we were using a technique that the Magic Army didn't even know."

……

"To put it simply, we've made a manual modification."

A man-made sorcerer. In the Magic Army of the Great Empire, it is no secret that artificially modified humans are created by such dark research.

"This is an interesting example."

The medical magician looked at the medical record.

"Study the details, study the magical army's artificial magicians well..."

"I'll twist your neck off if you find it useful."

The shade said in a low voice. The magician stopped moving as if he had been pointing an invisible blade at him. I looked at it in astonishment. My liver has chilled.

"I'll take her home. That's why I came myself."

You can't be kidnapped by a magical army for some reason. Seras is that important to Shade. It's not good to keep it with the magical army geeks.

"The imperial order of His Majesty the Emperor, the power necessary to destroy the rebels. If you can't hear me, I will lay my neck on the spot for disobeying His Majesty's orders!

Medical magicians say nothing. No, it just didn't fit, and I leaked it a little bit, pathetically.

The relative killing of the general was intense.

Shade met a woman named Seras two and a half years ago.

At that time, Shade, who was stationed in the country of Coocapente, led the squadron as the Knight Captain of the Great Empire.

It was raining that day in a town near the border. I found her on my way to a luxury inn where I was alone, stopping the fighting in the tavern.

A girl dressed in a dirty cloth in an alley, wearing cold rain and night. The dress worn under the cloth was exotic, but Shade was attracted to the girl at a glance.

A blonde, blue-eyed, very well dressed girl. She was clearly younger than Shade in her late teens.

Are you...? What's your name?

……

The girl turned away in trouble. It is occupied territory. He behaved rudely toward the Imperial Knights there, but Shade didn't stop.

Later I realized that I was right not to be angry.

She didn't even understand the language of the Alliance, rather than the Empire. Her words were words that neither Shade nor anyone in the squadron had heard. Naturally, it will be difficult to communicate.

Shade picked up a poor girl in the rain and began to take care of her. I heard her name, but she doesn't name it. It seems that I don't have a name so I decided to put a shade on it.

"Seras. That's your name."

It means angel in the home of Shade. Of course, it was quite a while before Seras, the girl, knew what the name meant.

The Knight Captain, who is serious and doesn't know what he's thinking, is looking for a woman - rumors spread to the squadron, but it's more of an occupied territory. It is not uncommon for an Empire human to activate might, and it was missed.

I'm not having sexual intercourse with a girl. It has been positively interpreted as raising orphans without family members.

Seras remembered the language under Shade, without any problems after six months, reading and writing the official languages of the Empire, and also mastering the languages of the Union.

I was presumed to have received a fairly high level of education. That would also explain the speed of understanding of language.

However, Shade knows very little about Serras' home or about her. That's because she had lost her memory.

The only clue I can get is the ring I wore besides my clothes. It seems to have engraved ancient civilization-era characters, but for some reason Seras won't let it go. So I don't know the details. Shade herself did not force herself to take it away.

Shade explained that it probably belonged to her family.

Even if you lose your memory, you're unconsciously reacting to the idea that you shouldn't let go.

Shade liked Seras. As she grew up in a situation where she could be treated cold from her surroundings, Shade was kind to what no one else could rely on, like her.

Of course, there will also be points where instinctive preferences for the opposite sex that I did not care about until now coincide. He won't say it, though.

And Seras also admired the shade and did his best.

Once again, Shade placed Seras by his side as a personal aide.

The battle against the Alliance began, and while Shade set up and promoted numerous medals, Seras also unleashed his magical talents. I helped Shade and supported his efforts.

And to the present day. Shade even thought he could register with her when the war was over. No, I really wanted to build a family.

But Shade had some concerns about Seras. Users of magic who are one or two steps better than ordinary people. Memory Loss - It's actually an artificial remodeling magician that the Magic Army of the Great Empire was studying.

Normally, it didn't matter to Shade, but the Magic Aircraft's piloting aptitude test issued within the Empire was something he wanted to avoid.

What if Seras was an experiment that escaped from the facility...

If we send them to the Magic Army, they'll take them back. That's why I got into the lab myself, Shade.

The Magic Army has nothing to do with it, but Shade's predicted diagonal results are artificial magicians who have been modified in a different organization.

Where was Seras born...?

I don't know if it is okay to be relieved. The results of this inspection will have attracted the attention of the Magic Army. Shade had to protect Seras from his family.

After the results of the pilot aptitude test of the magic plane, the earth's magic plane "Cea Gae", which had been vacant in the Great Empire, was given to Seras and deployed to the Shade guerrillas.
