A quiet story of the ferme, after the reunion

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

　I wake up in the morning as is my custom, Rose makes me run until I collapse during the day, and at night I write in my diary and fall asleep.

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

　That's my lifeguard routine as usual.

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

　The next time I opened my eyes, I saw Usato in front of me.

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

　It seemed so real, but I decided that I was dreaming.

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

　He was now on a trip to deliver a letter or something. There was no way he could appear in front of me without warning.

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

　I came to the conclusion that he was not, and I punched him in the face.

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

　In my dreams, I should be able to beat up Usato ......, but somehow, just like before, he still manages to knock me unconscious.

"How long are you going to sleep?"

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

"What the hell?"

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

　I woke up with a tremendous shock on my forehead.

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

　I guess I should say I was awakened, but I already know who woke me up, so I get up, writhing in pain.

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

　In front of me was Rose with her finger at the ready and Nack looking into my face.

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

"By the looks of it, I guess you've been talking to Usato over there.

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

"Over there?　What, Usato ......?"

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

"...... will take a ten-minute break. You should rest in the meantime.

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

　Rest?　You're a bloodthirsty b*tc*!　I nodded my head.

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

　After saying this, Rose turned her head toward the dormitory and Nack, who was tilting his head, called out to her.

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

Are you going somewhere?　Mr. Rose?"

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

"I have to go to the castle. I'm sure you'll be fine, but you know if ...... I skip it, right?"

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

　The look on his face was intimidating, even to a demon, and like me, Nack shook his head several times.

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

　It's not surprising that this woman would know that I've been slacking off, even if she wasn't watching me. Or rather, she has detected it several times.

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

　I look away from Rose and sit down on the ground, relaxing my shoulders.

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

"Whew... ....... Mr. Ferrum, how is Usato-san?"

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

"Huh?　What are you talking about?

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

"What?　I mean, didn't they call you because of some kind of magic?"

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

　I don't understand what Nack's question means.

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

　I tilted my head and Nack began to explain what had happened to me.

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

　He said that I was pulled into Usato's place by magic and came back unconscious.

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

"That wasn't a dream!"

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

"...... are you an idiot, Mr. Ferrum?"

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

"Shut up!"

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

　I yelled at Nack, who seemed to be taken aback, and recalled the exchange with Usato once more.

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

　I think there was someone else in the room besides Usato.

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

　Usato, too, was aghast at my belligerence, but in the end, I got bumped and smacked on the head...,

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

"So I've been knocked unconscious by him again. ......!　d*mn!　What's with the "good job"!　I'm not at all happy to hear you praise me!

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

　As I stomp the ground in exasperation, I notice Nack looking at me smiling.

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

"What the hell? He looks at me with a sickening smile. ......"

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

"No, I mean, I ...... kind of feel like you're just like me, Mr. Ferrum. ......"

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

"Huh?　What do you mean by that?"

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

"I won't say, because I'll deny it anyway. Now, it's time to resume training. I'm afraid of what'll happen if we skip it.

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

　What's the same with this guy?　Are you trying to confuse me by saying something I don't understand?

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

　I'm not going to play along, so I'm going back to my training. ......I don't want Rose to find out that I skipped training and beat me to a pulp.

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

　......So, come to think of it--,

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

"......What was that about ......?"

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

　When Usato touched the armor I made with my magic, it felt like something strange ...... happened.

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

　It's as if the armor has started moving on its own.

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

　In the first place, it is strange that my armor can change its shape against my will. That never happened to me when I was in the Demon Lord's army.

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

"I guess I shouldn't worry about it. I've been sealed in my magic again anyway.

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

　The magic fixture around my neck, which I thought had been removed, has somehow been restored.

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

　Now that I can't use magic, there is no point in thinking about the anomaly.

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

"Next time I see you, I'll show you ......!"

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

"What have you been mumbling all this time?　Stop wasting your time and get back to your training."

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

I know!

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

Don't go any further!

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

　He yells at Nack, who looks like a fool, and starts to run.

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

　You'll see, you monster in human skin! Next time I see you, I'm going to make you stronger than you are today and give you a hard time. ......!

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

　With this determination, I focus my mind on my training.

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

I'm going to be a great trainer.

A quiet tale of Suzune, in a neighboring country

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

　Kingdom of Glarial.

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

　That was the third country we visited to deliver the letter.

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

　Delivering the letter was surprisingly easy. But instead, we received a request from the king of Glarial.

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

"Save Mearaq from danger."

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

　Mialark is a city located next to the Kingdom of Glarial.

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

　When we came to the Kingdom of Glarial, there was already a problem in that city.

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

　A certain knight belonging to Mialark had gone berserk, freezing the water around Mialark and trying to destroy the city.

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

　The people of Mialark are now taking refuge in the Kingdom of Glarial.

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

　Even though it is a city, the number of people living in Mialark is not small. The Kingdom of Glarial is trying to save food and supplies as much as possible and is sharing them with the people of Mialark, but it will not be able to do so for much longer.

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

　At this rate, we will have to abandon the people of Mialark.

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

　It was at this moment, when we had to make a cruel decision, that we appeared before King Glarial.

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

"Usato-kun ......"

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

　We are still in contact with the castle in Mearaq by hoo-bird.

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

　When we arrived at the kingdom of Glarial, Usato and his friends had already arrived at Mialark and were working to stop the runaway knights.

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

　I was relieved to hear that they have not changed at all. ......

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

"Are you worried?"

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

"......Yes, of course I'm worried."

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

　Krumia comes up next to me as I watch the people of Mearaq resting in a makeshift tent outside the gates of the Kingdom of Glarial.

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

"I was told that the knight who is running amok is the one who would have been given the title of hero. Such a person is running amok while turning into a dragon. ......I'm afraid something might happen to you, Usato-kun. ......"

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

　I am not aware of what is happening in Mearaq either.

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

　But I can imagine how serious the situation is when I hear that a person who has turned into a dragon is on the rampage.

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

　Dragons are portrayed as powerful beings in all stories. It should be no different in this world.

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

"So, what are your real feelings?"

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

"I'm too shy to let you see me."

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

　He covers his face with his hands and writhes in shame at Krumia's words.

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

　I've done a lot of things to get to this point ......!

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

　And now that the rumors are spreading, I'm in a lot of trouble......!

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

"Usato-sama is also in trouble. Perhaps it's because of the unique nature of being a healing magician, but the rumors are getting trailed, and it's getting worse and worse."

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

"Ugh ......"

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

"You know what? There are rumors that he beat up demons with his bare hands, that he blinds them with his healing magic, and finally there are rumors that those who are hit by Usato-sama become immobile as if they were in bondage......."

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

　In the past few months, Usato-kun has been treated like a superhuman.

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

　And he's supposed to be some kind of sorcerer,...... and he doesn't use healing magic to blind people,...... he's not supposed to do that.

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

"The truth is, I know you'll be fine, Usato-kun,......!　But I don't know what I should look like when I meet him. Maybe, definitely, definitely, Usato-kun is planning to get back at me. I'm too shy to meet him first, and I can't make up my mind ......."

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

"...... is a pain in the ass."

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

"Isn't it terrible?"

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

　I'm aware that I'm a pain in the ass, but it hurts the most when you say it to my face!

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

　Krumea cowered her shoulders in disgust at my words.

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

"I don't care about your girlishness. We are going to help Usato-sama, that's all.

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

"Gugu, my squire is too strict ......"

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

"Besides, there are those who are suffering now. We can't just turn a blind eye to that. Can't we?"

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

"...... I know. That's why you're getting ready to leave.

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

"But you were running away from reality."

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

"Ugh, that's ......."

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

　She really hits a sore spot, doesn't she?

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

　But it's still true. From the very beginning, there is no option for me not to go to Mearaq because I have no face to show to Mr. Usato-kun.

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

　Right now, in front of me are the people of Mialark who cannot go home, and behind me are the people of the Kingdom of Glarial who are doing everything in their power to help them.

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

　For the time being, I must put my personal feelings aside and do something about the problems in Mialark,

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

"O brave one!"

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

　As I was about to signal my friends to leave for Mialark, a knight of the Kingdom of Glarial came running toward us in a great hurry from the castle.

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

　I wondered why he looked so happy, but I spoke to the knight, who was breathing hard.

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

What's wrong?　I was about to leave for Mearaq ......."

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

There is no need for that. ......!　The crisis in Mearaq has passed today!

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

Here!

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

　The knight held out a letter that Mialak must have sent by hooverbird.

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

　He opened the letter and looked through it, wondering... It contained the news that Usato and his friends had succeeded in stopping the knight who had been rampaging in Mialak.

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

"Well, Usato-kun did it. That's great of you, Usato-kun."

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

"He is a man who exceeds our imagination in every way. Maybe I should have followed you after all. ......

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

"Will you stop saying that so I can hear you!　You're hurting me!

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

　Krumia replies, "I'm only joking." He looks at the news with a slumped shoulder.

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

　He looks at the news with his shoulders drooped. ...... If the crisis in Mearaq is over, then there is no need for me to go. I'm a little sad that I won't be able to see you anymore, Usato, but I'm really glad that Mialak is saved.

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

　As I read through the news, half happy and half regretful, a sentence caught my attention.

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

"Hmmm?　A right arm shining in silver?　Usato, the healing wizard who runs on the ice with a black messenger: ......?"

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

　Hmm? ...... hmm?

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

　Ah, what's that?　What does that mean?　Does he have any silver equipment on his right arm?　Is he running on the ice with a black messenger...... Burlyn?　But he wasn't black. .......

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

　　The person who sent the message, perhaps trying to lend credibility to the report, included a handwritten picture to make it easier to understand.

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

　It showed Usato and his friends as they had been when they had parted in Luxembourg.

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

　However, on his right arm, there was an overly cool-looking cage hand, to put it mildly.

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

　In addition, on his right shoulder was an owl that was too cute, to say the least.

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

"No, you are really good. You managed it without us even having to go there, didn't you, Suzune-san? ...... Suzune-san?"

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

"......Zuzu, that's not fair!"

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

　Krumea let out a crazy voice at my words.

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

　But I shook my shoulders so much that I didn't care about that.

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

　Leaving aside the fact that he was wearing a basket hand, which I had not seen in Lukvis, it was not fair that he was carrying a cute little owl on his shoulder even though Bulrin was there, Usato!　I've never even met a messenger before,...... and I'm jealous of you,......!

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

"I wonder, Usato-kun, if you're not traveling in another world with me!"

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

　I wonder what kind of journey you are on, Usato,......!

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

　I dread to think how much you will have grown when I see you again. .......
