　A large bell was burning brightly in front of me.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　I let out an exclamation of admiration at the sight.

"Wow. ......"

"Guar."

　Currently, Mr. Ark and I are at the top of the tower where a large silver bell hangs.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　I was watching the silver bell melting and burning on Bulrin's back, and I spoke to Mr. Arc, who was sheathing his sword, which was covered with flames, a short distance away.

"...... Is this going to be all right?　I broke the bell of an important tower. ......"

"Ha-ha-ha, probably not. I don't know what to do.

　He laughs at me and I drop my shoulders and take off my cloak.

　What we did tonight was to destroy the bells installed in the tower of Samaritan. To be honest, I was suspicious at first because Nair suggested it, but when Usato said it was necessary to destroy the curse, I decided to help.

　What we did was simple.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　First of all, we needed a little strength, so we left the inn and brought Bulrin from the stables without anyone noticing with a precognition spell.

　Then, to prevent the guards from rushing to our place after breaking the bell, I anticipate the actions of the knights guarding the tower in advance and ask Aruk and Bulrin to stun them.

　Finally, when everything is ready, Alc-san cuts the bells in two with a powerful fire magic.

　Nair is convinced of the success of his plan when Mr. Alc has his sword covered with flames,

　He then flew toward the castle.

"I think it's time to get out of here. ......"

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　Having destroyed the bells, we must leave. The guards outside would not be unaware that the bell in the center of the kingdom had been destroyed, even at night.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　When I tried to talk to Mr. Alc to prepare for our escape, he looked at the still red-hot bell and his expression turned sullen.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

"...... Mr. Alc. I thought you didn't really like using the fire you just ......?"

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

"Yes, I do. I don't mean to be smug, but my flame is too dangerous."

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　When Mr. Alc was being manipulated by Nair, she said something about Mr. Alc not really liking to use his flame.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

"It is fortunate that when he was being controlled by Nair, he was only spreading the flames.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　Indeed, the flames that he released without being controlled by Nair seemed to be concentrated to the utmost power of the flames on his sword.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　It is obvious how much power is contained in the sword when it can easily cut such a large bell in two.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　I can understand why the mild-mannered Mr. Aruk does not want to use this flame.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

"But ......"

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　He stood up, lifted the scabbard with a click, smiled benignly, and opened his mouth.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

"If my power is needed to help others, I will gladly wield it.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

"I see. ...... but don't be too hard on yourself, okay?"

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

"Ha-ha-ha, tell that to Usato-dono."

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　I smile in reply to Aruk's words.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　I'm sure ...... that Usato is absolutely reckless.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　He will try to do what he has to do as he did when he fought against the evil dragon.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

"gu......"

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

"Yeah, I know. Usato will be fine."

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　I pat the head of Bulrin, who groans softly, and look at the castle, which can be seen not far from here.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　Usato is there now.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

"That's all we can do. "Come back safely, Usato!"

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　I muttered to him as he tried to help someone at a distance.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

I was trying to help someone in a remote place.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

"What did you do ......!?"

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　Mr. Fegnis glared at me and pulled out his sword and pointed the tip at me.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

"What did you do?　My friends destroyed the keystone of Samaritan's Tower.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

"That's not what I meant!　Your people should have been guarded by my men!"

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　Mr. Fegnis's polite tone of voice is broken, and I cower my shoulders in dismay.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

"All of them?　That's a really funny joke. Maybe you simply weren't watching carefully enough?"

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　Actually, I hadn't heard how Nair was going to break the bell, so I'm feeling a little nervous inside.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　I gave him a wry smile so that he would not realize it and gave him a bitter look when I told Mr. Fegnis.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

"That's not possible. ....... ......!"

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

"Hmm?"

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　But he immediately looked at Nair, who was on his shoulder, and pulled out the sword at his waist.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　Then, holding the sword in his opposite hand, he puts his hand on the sphere at the bottom of the hilt and points it toward us.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

"Sword!　Reveal his falsehood!"

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　With a chant, the orb on the hilt glows with a bright light.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　The owl, illuminated by the light, slowly left my shoulder and with a pop, transformed into a dark-haired, red-eyed vampire girl.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

"Oh my, it looks like she's unmorphed!"

　Everyone present opens their eyes and looks at the black-haired, red-eyed girl---nea.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　......I see, so this is how Neah's transformation is released. It's a good thing we didn't run into Mr. Fegnis when we were working together.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

"Nenea, Nenea-chan has turned into a human!

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

"H-h-h-h, I'm not surprised anymore. Yes, it's not strange at all that an owl turned into a person ......."

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　I'll explain everything to the two confused parents and their children in the back later, but for now, let's focus on Mr. and Mrs. Fegnis in front of us.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

"Humans...... or demons!　And what's more, it's a girl called Neah who used to be a member of Usato-sama's group!

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

"You finally noticed. You really underestimate us too much, don't you?　Do you think a mere girl can join a party of beasts, demons, knights, and monsters?

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　Oh, no?　Did I have a monster in my group?

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　Nair laughs at Fegnis and the others' dismay, as if to mock them.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　Mr. Fegnis, perhaps unable to bear the sight of them, shakes his shoulders in frustration and turns his attention from Nair to us.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

There is no such thing as a demon that can transform into a human!　What in the world did you bring to this castle, Usato-sama!

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

What?　As you can see, it's just a demon, isn't it?　What else could it be?

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

A highly intelligent demon can't be a man!　Are you so insane that you don't know that?

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　Well, Mr. Fegnis is right.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　While I was thinking that I should just answer him properly, Nair, who had been listening to Mr. Fegnis' words, came forward a little ahead of me with her arms folded.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

"You don't understand, do you? What the hell have you seen in him?　What have you seen in him?　Usato is an insane person.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　You're being rude, son.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　How can I be called insane when you're the one who signed the contract without permission?

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

Anyway... You were trying to trap Usato into believing that he was a being within the realm of your common sense, weren't you?"

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

"......"

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

"The source of the curse is outside, so Usato can't do it alone?　No matter how strong he is, this brainy healing wizard is just a child, and he can only run if he is separated from his friends?"

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　Just because I'm only seventeen years old doesn't mean I'm that stupid.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

You're actually right though.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

"Hey."

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　Why would you admit that?

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

"But I'm here to tell you that it's impossible for Usato to be trapped under a vicious curse. In other words, Usato can't do anything without me!

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

That's an exaggeration.

"~~~!　Don't you think that decoupage is a bit much?

　Neah is holding her forehead with teary eyes.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　I'm taking it pretty easy on her, and she has healing magic, so she should be fine, but ...... she's overreacting.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

"...... that bell is ......, do you know what that bell is for!　It's the hope of this country!"

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

"It's not hope. It's not just a supply device that gathers magic and sends it to the curse. How dare you turn it into such a big deal?

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

"......"

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　Ms. Fegnis is frightened by Nair's words as she says this while rubbing her forehead.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

"Wait a minute, what do you mean by ...... feeder?"

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　Master Lucas, who had been standing in stunned silence in the back, asked Néa fearfully.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　Nair cowered at the question.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

"It's just as you say. The tower has been giving the curse its magic power for a long time.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

"You don't mean to say that that tower we've always believed in has ...... tormented the royal family ...... and Eliza and Eva ....... But where does the magic come from?　If it's a supply, it has to come from somewhere, right?"

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　Nair nodded at his words and replied in a bored tone.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

"Prayer.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

"Prayer, huh?"

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

"When you pray to it, a little bit of magic is sucked out of you and collected in the bell at the top of the tower. The people of Samariat prayed for the future of the kingdom and that's why it's called the land of prayer, but I didn't think they were supplying the curse that was consuming the royal family. ...... Ironic story, isn't it?"

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　The magic tool or something is used to absorb a small amount of magic power from the prayed-for object and supply it to the cursed object.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　The curse that binds hundreds of souls requires a great deal of magical power to continue to function. To compensate, the tower was made an object of worship and a symbol of hope for the people of Samaria.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　Nair is right, it is ironic.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

"How did you, ......, notice that?"

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　Mr. Fegnis looks astonished, as if he didn't expect to be noticed.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

"Huh?　I noticed that as soon as Usato told me about you. I could feel the creepy feeling about the bells from the first time I heard them.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　So that's why when you came here, you said that it was weird to see that tower.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　After all, I almost had to ask for Nair's help.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　I'll thank you after this matter is settled, but for now let's deal with Mr. Fegnis in front of us.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　I asked him in a slow tone of voice, trying to calm my mind.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

"The curse will eventually disappear when the bell, the source of supply, is destroyed. But it is very unlikely that Eva's life and body will be restored. The only way to save Eva is for us to go and destroy the curse ourselves. So..."

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　We cannot waste time and magic power in unnecessary battles.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　Once we destroy that tower, we have reached the time limit of the extinction of the curse.

　Mr. Fegnis does not move his face even a little at my words, but raises his right hand slowly and silently.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　As if on cue, the knights under his command draw their swords and turn on us.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

"You don't want to let me through, do you?"

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　If you turn your swords on us, we will deal with you accordingly.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

"Hah ...... Mr. Lucas."

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

"...... fine. He's no longer a knight in the service of his country. He's a traitor obsessed with delusion. Beat him without reservation.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　After a final check with Master Lucas behind me, I look at Nea, who is standing next to me.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　She smiles broadly and with a pop she transforms into an owl and jumps on my shoulder, activating her magic.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

"Let's do this. Neah."

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

"What a bunch of idiots. Do you think this is enough to defeat the monster next to me?

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

"Stop treating me like I'm a monster naturally. ......"

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

"Hmph."

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　I also activate my healing magic, and a green light of healing magic and a purple pattern covering it appear in both hands.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　After a day's rest, I'm in good physical condition and my magic is strong.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　The people we are going to fight now are those who are partly responsible for creating the current situation. If they are going to stand in our way, then we have no choice but to use force to break through.

"Soooooo ......!"

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　We must win first!

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　I take a slow, deep breath, and in one gulp, I'm close to one of the knights who still hasn't taken a stance.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　I meet eyes with the knight who is very upset, perhaps not expecting me to rush into him out of nowhere.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

"What?

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

You're too slow!

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

What?

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　He slams his fist into the knight's abdomen as he rushes to ready his sword.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　The knight's eyes go white as he clutches his abdomen, and he falls to the ground shaking and trembling, unable to move due to the binding magic.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　A fist of restraining spells and healing magic, the healing restraining punch...... No, let's call it the healing restraining fist because it's not a good word.

　The remaining four knights stop moving and look at me in horror.

　What is it?　That look, as if they were looking at a vicious demon. .......

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　You look seriously wounded, but you are unharmed.　In fact, thanks to the healing magic, I'm even healthier than before.

　I think Nair is saying something, but then the knights start to draw their swords again and I ready my fists.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

"Don't fight them alone!　Surround them and limit their movements!

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　Mr. Fegnis, who is holding his sword behind me, gives me a command, and the four knights spread out to surround me.

　I can't be surrounded so easily, so I jump forward in response.

Not with these numbers!

　Two of them jumped to the left and right, and two of them came straight at me to attract my attention.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　I approach the two in front of me at once, grab one knight by the elbow and the other by the breastplate, and swing him around by brute force. As I do so, I slam him to the floor so that the startled knight next to him is also involved, and cast a healing and restraining spell on him.

　I calmly create a healing magic bullet and throw it at the knight coming from the left.

That's not fair!

　While your eyes are on the writhing knight on your left, the fifth knight comes in with a sharp thrust.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

"I'm sorry, but I'm not a knight.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　As soon as he said these words in a small voice, he half-jumped to avoid the thrust and slammed a healing restraining fist as a counterattack.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　I look down at the knight who falls to his knees and turn around.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

"...... he's already out cold."

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　He is kind of falling down with his face held down and the whites of his eyes peeled back. And his face is covered with tears and snot.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　What's going on?　He was just hit by a healing magic bullet, so he should have been able to fight at all.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

Ow!

　Somehow, I was distracted by the unconscious knight and didn't notice Mr. Fegnis' attack until too late.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　I immediately backed up and prepared my fist, while Nair, who was on my shoulder, slapped my cheek angrily.

I know that trick!　If only I could read the trajectory!　Huh!"
