　Just a hard basket hand.

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

　The completed armor had a performance that was too simple.

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

　It is not a weapon that can wreak havoc over a wide area, nor a weapon that can deliver a lethal blow to an opponent, but a protective armor.

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

　I feel bad that the weapon used by the heroes has turned out like this, but I liked this cage hand.

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

　On the morning of the day after I received the hand from Mr. Farga, I was having a mock battle with Mr. Aruku using the hand. A mock battle with Mr. Aruku, who wields flames.

　Moreover, this time I was fighting not with a wooden sword but with an iron sword with the blade smashed.

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

　He is able to show a technical fighting style with a sword covered with flames, and like Leona-san, he must be a natural enemy of mine.

"Hu......!"

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

　Without clenching my fist, I let my right hand form a hand sword and thrust it in front of me, playing Aruk-san's flaming sword with my right hand.

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

　He deflects the swing from above with his palm and catches the cleave with his arm.

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

　He feels no pain, no heat, no sensation at all in his popped hand. This way, I won't be unable to use it due to the heat, like when I fought against Mr. Arc who was controlled by Nair.

"So this is what this thing can do!"

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

　The left arm is always ready for a fist strike, while the right arm is used solely for defense.

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

　This was becoming my new way of fighting in this mock battle.

"I knew you were hard ......!"

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

I'm surprised too!

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

　Aruk-san also seemed to be surprised at the hardness of the baskets.

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

　As for me, the rest of my arms are hot, of course, but I'm not directly exposed to the flames, so it's bearable at all.

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

"That's great!　Usato-sama!

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

"You too, Mr. Aruk!"

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

　However, unlike the previous fight, Aruk-san himself is not being controlled by anyone, and is able to fight at his best.

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

　When I tried to get into his pocket after repelling his attacks with my basket hand and seeing through the attacks that I could avoid, he easily pulled back and slashed at me with his sword as if he was trying to re-position himself.

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

　I was surprised at how skillful Aruk-san's fighting style was that he did not step in more than necessary.

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

"Can you avoid this!

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

"Can you avoid it?

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

　As I flicked the sword with my fist, Aruk-san generated multiple magic bullets in his palm and threw them at me all at once.

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

　The wide-range magic bullets that Meena used in Lukvis!　I wasn't surprised that Aruk-san could also use them, but at such a short distance?

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

"But!　I have this!"

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

　This baskets are not only hard.

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

　Thanks to this cage which assists me in manipulating magic power, I have added a new technique to my healing magic.

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

　I put the magic power in my right palm and direct it to the approaching magic bullet.

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

"Pop!"

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

　The compressed magic explodes from my palm, and all the magic bullets fired by Mr. Arc are detonated.

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

　This is the new healing magic Bursting Palm.

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

　As a result of trial and error, we came up with this technique which is both evasive and defensive at close range.

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

　I couldn't use it until now due to various problems, but thanks to this cage hand, I can finally use it in actual battle.

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

"Let's go, Mr. Aruk!"

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

What are you doing, Usato?

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

"Whoa!　Leona!

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

　As I was clearing away the dust with my right hand to continue the simulation, Leona came flying in from the side and grabbed me by both shoulders as hard as she could, her blood boiling.

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

　Aruk-san was also stunned with his sword at the ready, but Leona-san lifted up my right arm and checked if I was hurt.

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

"What a dangerous use of magic power you are!　You're using your magical power in such a dangerous way!

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

"Ah, yes. It's okay. My right arm is unharmed by the basket hand.

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

"You're a ...... now, you know that?"

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

　Ah, Leona, who can handle lineage enhancement, has noticed the principle of my healing magic bursting palm. .......

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

　Leona-san, who looked indignant or puzzled by my words, was approached by Aruk-san, who had his sword in his hand.

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

"Um, Leona-san. What did you do just now, Usato-dono?　It looked to me as if he released a tremendous amount of magic power from his palm. ......"

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

"Usato literally burst his magic. It is an insane act from someone who can handle ...... lineage reinforcement, an intentional outburst of magical power, which is the drawback of lineage reinforcement. ......"

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

　Yes, the reason why the healing magic bursting palm could not be used is because it is a technique to intentionally cause a burst of magic power.

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

　When I used to do it without baskets, my palms were covered with blood and it took time to put magic power into my palms, so I thought I couldn't use it in a real battle.

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

　However, Leona-san, who felt threatened by my action, tightened her grip on my shoulder and came closer to my face.

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

"What, what, why are you willing to do such a dangerous thing!　Even if you have a basket hand, there is always a contingency!　Falga's weapon isn't perfect either! There's a possibility that the lost magic power could flow back!

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

　I nodded, overwhelmed by Leona's desperate words.

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

　She seemed to calm down and looked a little tired.

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

"Usato, the next time you do something like this, please tell us ...... not only for your sake but also for my heart. System reinforcement is a really dangerous technology."

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

I'm sorry. I'll be careful."

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

　You've been nailed a lot before by Mr. Welsey. .......

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

　...... I got angry with him, but at least I know that this technique is useful enough.

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

　The effect itself is simply an explosion of compressed magic on the palm, and the power itself is only enough to lightly blow a person away, and the range is only about 1 or 2 meters.

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

　However, it has the same uses as a healing magic bullet, such as releasing it on the ground to levitate oneself, using it when one is immobilized, or shooting it into an opponent.

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

　The other advantage of healing magic is that it can heal an injured person's whole body in an instant, as it is supposed to ......?

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

"But when I tried it before, my hands were covered with wounds and it was hard, but now I have a basket hand, so I can use it in real combat. You know, I can gather up magic power in an instant!"

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

"I wonder what kind of idea you have to come up with to use the outburst of magic power. ......"

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

　Leona's shoulders slumped, and she removed her hand from my shoulder.

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

"Usato, Mister Aruk, I'm sorry for interrupting your mock battle."

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

"I don't mind. I was getting excited about the fight with Usato-dono. I'm glad you stopped me.

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

　Aruk-san smiles briskly at Leona-san, who looks apologetic.

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

　You say scary things with a cool face.

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

　But in Mr. Aruk's case, he seems to be really passionate when he really wants to do something. The flame he showed when he was being controlled by Nair. It's not a reinforcement, but his original magic that he usually suppresses.

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

　If Aruk-san, who is still in his right mind, uses that flame, I have to be serious too, but his power is very reliable to fight against Kalon-san, who manipulates ice.

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

"How did you feel when you tried using the Kagote, Usato-sama?"

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

"It felt surprisingly comfortable."

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

　He nodded his head in satisfaction at Aruk's words.

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

　At first I was not sure if I would be able to handle it well since it was the first time for me to use it in battle, but it was integrated into my fighting style as if it had existed from the beginning.

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

　It was as if this baskets hand had already existed in the first place.

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

"I thought I needed to get used to it, but I guess I don't need to."

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

　My new way of fighting.

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

　It is a close combat that combines evasion and defense.

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

　I use healing magic bullets and bursting palm magic to catch my opponent off guard and strike the biggest blow I can.

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

　......It's the same as before, isn't it?　I can't really deny that. .......

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

　As I was thinking this and smiling, Leona, who was listening to the conversation between me and Aruk, put her hand on her chin.

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

"So you're ready to fight Kalon now?"

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

"Yes."

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

　Leona and I nodded our heads at her words.

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

　Evasive maneuvers that minimize wasted movement.

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

　Defense with a basket hand.

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

　Resistance to cold air with the spell of resistance.

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

　With these three things, we finally have the conditions to fight Kalon head-on.

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

"Norn-sama, who is maintaining the warding, is nearing his limit. ...... Usato, Mister Arc, let's think of a strategy to fight Kalon tonight."

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

"...... is Master Norn going to be all right?"

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

"He's putting on a good face, but I think he's close to his limit."

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

　Yesterday, the healing magic healed my body of its fatigue, but it has not healed my exhausted mind at all.

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

　Considering that he had been working tirelessly to maintain the wards before our arrival, and has continued to do so until today,...... it would not be surprising if Master Norn were to collapse at any moment.

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

　Now that my armor was complete and ready, I knew what to do next.

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

"I understand. Let's think about a plan tonight.

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

　The battle with Mr. Karon is near.

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

　When I was aware of this, I naturally put more strength into the hand in which the cage hand was fitted.

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

I was so close to the battle with Mr. Karon that I naturally put my hands on the cage.

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

　After completing the training, I was leaving the training ground, looking at my own cage hand.

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

　As I was entering the castle from the training grounds, a black owl, Nair, jumped on me.

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

"Hmm?　Nair. Have you been watching me?"

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

"...... yeah. I was bored, but I was watching.

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

　I smile at Néa, who says this to me in a somewhat sullen tone, and I change the iron bracelet on my right arm into an iron bracelet, reminding myself to "go back.

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

　I had wondered how to change it back yesterday, but I thought it would be useful to be able to change it back at any time at my will.

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

　If I wanted to, I could equip it on my left arm as well, and it would be quite nice not to have to carry it around as a cage hand.

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

　Also, it looks cool.

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

　When I go back to the Ringle Kingdom, I want to show my senpai the scene of wearing a basketsuke and make a smug face.

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

"How do you like my new baskets, Neah?"

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

"Isn't it perfect for you?"

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

　Imagining his senior's reaction, I asked Nair about his new basket hand, to which he replied in a curt tone.

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

"I don't know, I wasn't there, but you know!

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

　Nair stares at me with a glare and a stronger ending, and I let out a sigh of disgust.

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

　Néa is angry at me for not waking her up last night when I had finished my cage hand.

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

　She was sulking and sulking until now, after she had angrily told me that she was the only one who was left out, and that she had wanted to see the moment when my kagome was made.

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

"I apologized for not waking you up," he said.

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

"I didn't have any feelings at all. I mean, how could I be the only one left out?"

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

"Because you didn't wake up."

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

You should have woken me up with more energy!　I wanted to see the brave man's sword turn into a cage hand!

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

　What do you mean "wake me up"?

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

　Should I give him a pinprick or something? ....... I'm sure they'll complain about that, though.

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

"It's because you went to bed so early, isn't it? I always thought you lead a healthy life from a human point of view, but an unhealthy life as a night demon.

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

"Gu, that's because ...... there's no one to talk to at night. ......"

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

"What?" "Nothing!"

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

　You're a busy girl, whispering, turning red and getting angry.

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

　But since I was looking forward to seeing you, it's my fault for not waking you up, so I apologize again.

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

"Well, I'm really sorry."

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

"...... is all I need to know."

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

"But I didn't think the reason you went to bed early was because you were lonely by yourself."

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

　I can hear him whispering in my ear, even if I don't like it. But surprisingly, Nair also has a childish side to her.

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

　I walk through the castle, smiling at Néa as she pats me on the head with her wings.

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

　I am used to walking in the castle and make my way through the corridors to my room without hesitation. However, I stop when I suddenly hear a ringing in my ears.

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

---I need to talk to you.

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

　The voice I heard along with the ringing in my ears was the voice of Master Farga.

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

　Seeing that I had stopped with my head held down, Nair called out to me.

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

Usato, did you just do something to me?　For a moment your magic was disturbed.

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

"...... Oh. I hear the voice of Mr. Farga's voice directly in my head: ...... he wants to talk to me about something."

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

　Is this about today's strategy meeting?

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

　If so, he should be talking to Master Norn, not me. .......

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

　If he called me directly, does he want to talk about something he doesn't want anyone to hear?

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

"Nair, I'm going to Master Farga's. ......"

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

"I'm coming with you. I'm going with you today.

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

　He's got a lot of guts.

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

　Even if I tried to take him back to his room, he'd force me to follow him. Well, I'm sure Lady Farga will forgive us even if Nair is with us.

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

　Smiling at her stubbornness, I turn back the way I came and head for the hall where there is a path leading to Master Farga.
