"Usato-san!　May I see Suzune-sama?

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

　This was what I had feared.

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

　I had returned after checking the great river flowing between the Demon King's domain and the human domain, and had parted ways with Leona inside the base, returning to the lifeguard team's base of operations.

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

　We would leave for the Demon Lord's territory tomorrow.

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

　Just as I was thinking that I would spend the night at the base, I was thinking that I would spend the night in peace, when Kate-san came to visit me and asked me something like that, somewhat bitingly.

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

"Hey, Kate. Don't bother Ms. Usato."

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

　Gerna, who came to visit me with her, warned me so.

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

　But that didn't stop Kate.

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

"This is your only chance. If you stop now, Gerna, you'll be holding a grudge against ...... you forever!

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

"Can you please stop saying such horrible things in your bouncy voice ......?"

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

　From the looks of Ms. Kate, she didn't mean any harm ......, did she?

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

　I have to ask permission from my seniors, but I can't refuse Kate's request after all the hard work she's done to help the rescue team until today.

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

I understand. But can I do it after I get your permission?　Maybe she'll refuse. ......"

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

"That's fine!　I'd rather have it that way!"

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

"No, is it possible? ......"

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

　What is it, the excitement of just being near a celebrity ......?

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

　But senpai is popular too.

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

　It seems that women are usually very popular in Calm Helio.

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

"Well, let's go to the place. Gerna, are you coming?"

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

"I ...... don't know what he's going to do, so I'll go with him.

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

　Mr. Gerna points to a dreamy Ms. Kate and says so.

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

　Together with Ms. Kate and Mr. Gerna, they leave the lifeguard station and head for their seniors.

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

　As we walk through the torch-lit area, Ms. Kate talks to me as if she suddenly remembers something.

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

"Oh, by the way, there was something I wanted to ask you, Usato-san, after the war was over!

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

"Hmm?　The rumor about you and my senpai is a misunderstanding. ......

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

I'm not talking about that. I was wondering how you became the healing magician that you are today. ......"

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

　Kate's question makes Mr. Gerna stiffen for a moment.

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

　A healing magician like you are now, you mean in that direction, don't you?

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

　But the problem is that ...... Kate has taken out what looks like a notepad. What in the world is she going to write?

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

"Well, what's the notebook for?"

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

"To write down your training methods, Usato-san!"

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

"For what purpose?　Are you going to practice it yourself at ......?

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

No!　When I was sent here, I was asked to do so by a high official of the kingdom!"

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

　Oh, my God, she's so honest.

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

　It's not the same, but it's the one I was afraid of at first.

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

　However, Kate, who is supposed to be here ...... to find out the inner workings of the rescue team, seems to have been so absorbed in her senpai that she forgot about it until just now.

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

　In other words, it was a fine play by her. That's right.

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

"Are you trying to create healing wizards like me and the Commander in Calm Helio? ......"

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

"Oh, really?　I don't think so."

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

"You don't deny it. You don't even know you're a spy. He's at ......."

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

"Supai?"

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

"That's enough. ......"

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

　Gerna-san, who is looking tired, tsk tsk tsk as Kate tilts her head.

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

"So, who's the big guy?　Princess Nia?"

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

"Not Princess Nai'a, but Kyle and the minister.

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

"...... Oh, yeah. Yeah."

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

　No way, Prince Kyle.

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

　What am I to make of that? Was he trying to find out my secrets as a healing wizard?

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

　It seems a bit premature to send her so soon after the meeting, but it's not surprising if you consider that ...... she's been so competitive.

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

"Miss Kate. When you return to Calm Helio, will you have an audience with Princess Nai'a?"

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

"Umm, I heard that Princess Nai'a is very busy. I heard that Mr. Kyle can meet her at any reasonable time. ......"

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

　Prince Kyle...... No, I'm sure it's different now, maybe.

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

　But it's not so easy to meet Princess Naija, is it?

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

"Then, is it possible to just give them the notebook?"

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

"Yes, that's possible!　They may check the contents of the notebook for inspection, though!

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

"Well, can I borrow the notebook for a moment?

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

　I was surprised that she handed me the notebook without hesitation, but I stopped and picked up the pen that was clasped in my hand.

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

　The contents of the notebook are ...... that I am writing this text, and that I am asking you not to make the healing magician undergo harsh training, and that I am asking you not to cause any harm to the healing magician who has been dispatched to you - Ms. Kate.

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

　I also noted that, although it is not so much an alternative, it would be better to train healing wizards like Olga and Uluru, who specialize in healing, rather than training healing wizards like us.

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

　In addition, I wrote about how much healing wizards like Ms. Kate played an active role in this war in as much detail as possible, and appealed their usefulness.

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

"There, that's it. Here you go."

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

"Thank you!"

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

"Uh-huh?"

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

　...... why did he thank me? I'm ......?　Is it an autograph or something?　

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

　We start walking again and soon arrive at our destination.

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

　There were several small tents lined up in a row, and a campfire in the center of the tents was lighting up the surrounding area.

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

"......Ah, there he is."

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

　In the light of the campfire, I find my senpai sitting on a log used as a chair, Leona, and Kazuki sitting the same way across from the campfire.

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

　I let Kate and Gerna wait there for the time being and approach the three of them.

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

"Hmm?　It's you, Usato. What's wrong?"

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

　Kazuki and Leona look at me when they hear my voice.

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

　I scratch my cheek in annoyance and reply to him.

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

"Actually, there is a girl who wants to meet you.

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

"The girl who wants to meet me?"

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

"She's a big fan of you."

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

　When I said this rather jokingly, he put his hand on his forehead and smiled.

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

"An ardent fan, huh? Then, as a brave man, I have to live up to his expectations ......!"

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

"Does that mean you're okay with it?"

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

Off course!　Leona, are you ready ......!

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

"Suzune!　I don't care about that!

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

　She's even more excited today.

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

　Leona-san next to me is confused, but I wonder when did they start calling each other by their first names?

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

　Anyway, I get their approval and beckon to them behind me.

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

　Then Kate, her eyes shining, comes running toward us.

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

"Mr. Usato!　Thank you very much!

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

"Don't worry about it. Go ahead and talk to your senpai as much as you want. The person next to him is Leona. She is a brave warrior from Mearaq. And the one in front of her is Kazuki, another hero of the Lingle Kingdom.

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

"What?　Kazuki, the other brave lady, and Leona, who solved a big case in Mialak together with Usato?　What a fortuitous chance!　I won't complain even if you say I've already used up all the luck in my life!

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

　After thanking me profusely once again, Kate-san went towards the senior who was beckoning her with a smile.

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

"Suzune-sama, Leona-sama!　It's my first time to meet you!　I am a healing wizard of the Kingdom of Calm Helio!　My name is Kate!

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

"Yes, yes, your name is Kate. I'm Inukami Susanne. I'm a brave warrior from the Kingdom of Lingle.

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

"Wow, I'm Leona. I'm Leona, the ...... hero of Mialak."

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

　The senior confidently introduces herself and Leona shyly says her name.

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

　Kate is elated to see these two contrasting people.

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

　......Yeah, it looks like it's going to be all right.

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

"Hey, Usatoh!"

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

　Kazuki, who is sitting on a separate log from his seniors and Leona, raises his hand to us.

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

"I'm coming. Here, Gerna, you too."

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

"Oh, you don't mind?"

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

"Yes, I don't mind at all. Besides, we are close in age.

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

　Gerna and I approach Kazuki and sit down on an empty space on the log.

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

　There is plenty of room for the three of us.

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

Usato, who's that?

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

Gerna, from the Kingdom of Nirvarna. He's here to reinforce the rescue team. He's a healer like me.

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

Nice to meet you, I'm Gerna. I know Mr. Kazuki well, as he has visited Nirvarna before.

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

　Gerna bowed her head in awe, and Kazuki scratched his cheek as if troubled.

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

"Well, um, you don't have to call me sir, do you?　We seem to be the same age, so you don't have to use honorifics.

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

"No, not at all. ......"

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

　It's a little itchy for me to be addressed with honorifics by someone my own age, too.

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

　I don't care if it's someone who uses honorifics on a daily basis like Mr. Halfa of Lukvis, but Gerna's usual way of speaking would be different.

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

"It's a little late for that, but I don't have to speak in honorifics either. I don't mind at all if you speak to me in the same tone as when we first met."

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

"......Wow, I understand ......Okay."

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

"Well then, it's nice to meet you again. Gerna."

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

　Kazuki smiles brightly at Gerna, who nods his head in confusion.

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

　Kazuki then turns his attention to the seniors who are talking over the campfire.

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

"Did Usato come here to take her to see the senpai?"

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

"Yes, he did. She's a healing magician from Calm Helio, and she asked me to bring her here to ...... meet our senpai.

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

"I see. I was adored by my senpai in the past, but it seems that things haven't changed in this world.

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

"Before I mean ......"

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

"Yeah, that's what I meant."

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

　Perhaps out of consideration for Mr. Gerna, Kazuki blurred his expression.

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

　By "before," he meant the world before we were summoned.

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

"But you must have been looking forward to it a lot."

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

"For the past week, I've been hearing about the heroes at every turn. I'm ......."

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

"Oh, so much. ...... You're the man from Calm Helio. ......"

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

　Gerna is dismayed, and Kazuki smiles bitterly.

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

　Since Calm Helio has a belief in brave men, Kate's obsession may be natural in a sense.

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

　From the ...... side, it looks like she's just so happy to see a celebrity.

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

"Usato, you went to see the big river during the day, didn't you?　How was it?"

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

"Well, ...... it wasn't too fast as far as I could see today. It was a little wide, but with your magic it shouldn't be too hard to build a bridge.

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

"I see. I'm a little relieved because it would be a big problem if we stumble before entering the demon king's territory.

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

"Ha-ha-ha, indeed."

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

　If that happens, I'm sure they'll figure out another way, but I'm sure we'll be stranded for nothing.

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

"...... you two are going to a great place."

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

"Gerna, what kind of place is the demon king's territory from your point of view?"

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

"I don't think I, or rather, most people don't know what the Demon Lords are like. They have been hating each other for hundreds of years.

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

　Gerna stares at the campfire.

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

"If I had to guess, I'd say that the demons are horrible subhumans. Maybe it's because I've heard the legends of my ancestors who fought against the Demon Lord's army when they were the last generation of heroes, but even without that, this battle still made me ...... tremble from the bottom of my heart, to be honest."

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

　Nirvarna is a country full of martial people.

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

　If it were such a country, it might have boldly challenged the Demon Lord's army in the days of the previous heroes.

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

　Just as it was written in the memoirs, against the Demon Lord's army led by the "Terrible Demon Lord" who did his utmost in treachery and treachery.

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

"......, I shouldn't have said this to the two of you who are leaving tomorrow. I'm sorry.

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

"No, it was helpful. Thank you."

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

　Kazuki shakes his head as Gerna apologizes.

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

　The people of this world's perception of demons is that they are terrifying beings,...... but what about the opposite, the perception that demons have of humans?

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

　......Maybe the demons also think that humans are terrifying.

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

　At that time, I suddenly heard such a voice in front of me.

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

　I look over and see Kate, her eyes shining, talking to her senpai.

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

　However, the senior's expression seemed to be somewhat distorted.

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

　Leona-san tilts her head at the upset senpai, who seems to have guessed what was coming.

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

　Kate, knowing or not that she was upset, spoke as she did.

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

<......A,E,U......Gah! >>

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

　She looked at Kate's face and mine alternately, then turned bright red and burst into flames.

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

　Leona-san, who was supporting her as she was about to fall back, called out to me for help, but she was shaking her head frantically.

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

"Well, we'll see what we can do. ......"

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

　At any rate, I had to see the Demon King, the Demon Tribe, and the Demon Domain with my own eyes before I could get started.

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

　Seeing my senpai being noisy in a good way, I felt somewhat relaxed and stood up to help him.
