Virtuous Old Man, SSS-Rank is Confirmed in Your Next Life

After thanking the maids and telling them to get back to work, I brought Locust Re-Rotus back to the study.

"Um..."

"Yeah?"

When I entered the room and shut the door, Lotus called out nasty.

Turning inside the room, Lotus, who came in first, sat like a puppy on the floor after all, staring at me with a tendency to lay low.

"What's going on?

"Thank you for helping me."

"Never mind. How's your body doing better than that? Is there anything weird about that?

"It's okay...... you know"

"Yeah?"

Lotus looked at me like he had decided to, and now he looked up and looked straight at me.

"Is there anything I can do?

"What can you do?

"I want to thank you."

"... well"

I guess you're not convinced that you don't have to do that.

All the more so if you remember Locust in his previous life.

That was just a disaster.

It was a presence that wielded disaster around just because it existed.

Lotus' heart is inherently gentle, like cutting out "grace" now.

I was suffering from myself back then.

That's why I repay you.

You don't have to do that, I'm sure you'll be sick the other way around - you'll keep trying.

I thought a little, I said.

"Well, let me ask you one thing."

"What is it!?

Lotus at the front.

"Prepare to go down before then. Get up on that desk and wait."

"Yes!"

Despite not being asked any details, Lotus climbed onto his desk in an unexpectedly agile and clever move that was not lost at all.

Seeing it, I lay my hands on the material bag.

- Oh, my God!

Lotus freaked out.

Keep your body down and do what you're frightened of.

"It's okay, this is certainly the same bag that sealed you. Because I don't use it for that purpose."

"Yes... if that's..."

"If you're going to do that, I'm not giving you a name."

"... Yes"

Lotus lay her eyes down.

He seems happy and sorry.

That's such a complicated look.

I put my hand in the material bag again, made homunculus inside and took it out as it was.

It's a puppy-shaped homunculus, made only to look like Lotus and size.

Put that next to Lotus.

Strangely enough, but earlier vigilance stares at Lotus with a completely blown eye.

"What should I do?

"Stay still. It's okay, get ready down there, I'll be right back."

"Yes."

Lotus nodded honestly.

I used Hershel's technique.

Once I have stripped Lotus' soul from the flesh and placed it inside Homunculus, I will soon restore it to its original flesh.

"Is that it? I'm back."

"This is fine. It's only a condition for exchange."

That's what I said, and now I took out my short knife.

"This is next"

"Knife, is it?

"Use this to slash my shadow. If you slaughter him, go straight inside."

"I don't know..."

Lotus nodded small and received the short knife with his mouth.

Jump a little off the desk, slash my shadow, and go inside.

That's good.

After a while, Lotus just came out with his face.

"Um, this is... it's amazing, but what do I do..."

Through the loss of vocabulary characteristic of those who entered the shadows, he gave explanations and raised them.

"You just have to stay inside. If you're in there, if you have any special abilities, I can use them."

"Is it a special ability?

"Dorothy."

Calling, Dorothy only came out her upper body from the side of Lotus.

I used the Devil's Eye against Dorothy herself towards Lotus, and then I used the same Devil's Eye against Lotus after diving into the shadows.

The effect of the demonic eye, making the opponent golden.

Lotus found himself twice experiencing gold bondage from a change of expression.

"Like this"

"Wow..."

"I mean, just because you're in my shadow, it helps."

"Okay!

Lotus was very happy to understand the story.

When I thought I was just in the shadows, I had the exact eye of a puppy that was going to be thrown away, but the fact that I got to keep Dorothy and my demon eye up convinced me that if I was in the shadows, that would be all -.

"Speaking of which,"

"Yes?"

"What are you capable of? That temper is a bit different than your abilities."

Or is there, the word swallowed.

Because if not, I might get hurt.

"Yes! Try magic!

Lotus, I said with a happy look, dived into my shadow.

I don't know, let's try magic.

Hands over the flesh of Homunculus left behind as he turned back to his desk.

In the meantime... let's use the magic of substance conversion.

A homunculus puppy happened to turn into a golden puppy.

The next moment I used magic, my body glowed pale.

In the body - a pale light, like it has emanated from the back, which should also be called the core.

I felt it at the same time.

"The magic... restored?

Look into your palm, feel the back of your body (,).

No doubt, the magic I just consumed has been restored.

"What do you say?

Lotus put his face out of the shadows.

"The magic has been restored, but what is it?

"That's my ability. Magic restores magic automatically."

"Using magic restores magic?

"Yeah, whatever magic you use, you recover 10%.... back in the day, I wanted to stop, but I couldn't stop..."

"I see, the better you use it, it's a permanent institution..."

I stared at my palm again.

When you grab magic, you regain 10% magic.

The ability of Lotus (Low Cast) has been powerful, unplugging.
