　As expected, there were many dangerous situations in training with one leg and one arm blocked.

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

　Nack's moves were better than I expected, and the combination of Ferrum and Nair is not to be underestimated.

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

　Above all, I really lost track of where Amako was.

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

　When he was standing behind me, I was so surprised that I really felt impatient.

"I guess I was a bit cryptic..."

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

　I spin around and land on the tree, smiling as I see the dark magic covering my right arm from forearm to hand.

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

　The dark magic I had taken from Ferrum was only partially effective.

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

　If I tried to take more than that, I would feel sorry for her, and moreover, if I tried to take all of it away, Ferrum herself would be pulled out and assimilated.

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

　If that happens, I lose, regardless of whether I can touch it or not.

"Well, what do you think?"

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

　I hear two footsteps coming from the direction I have been flying, moving through the trees.

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

　From the lightness of their footsteps, I guess they are Nack and Ferrum.

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

　If I keep on the run, I can just keep moving and hope to run out of time. .......

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

"That's no training, is it ......?"

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

　Neither of them would be satisfied with such an end.

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

　So, as we wait for them, Nack and Ferrum arrive as expected.

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

　--- and before we begin, let's call out to Ferm.

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

"Ferm!　I won't take any more magic from you, so you can use it as much as you want!

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

You don't want my magic, you monster!

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

"Yeah. ......"

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

　Why did he get mad?

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

　If you look closely, you can see Nair on Ferrum's shoulder. We'd better be careful not to let her put a binding spell on us.

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

　As I watch Ferrum from a distance, Nack turns his palm toward me.

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

　A green light gathers in his palm.

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

　It comes straight at me.

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

"A healing magic bullet!

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

　I block the magic bullet as if I grab it with my palm.

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

　The speed is not so bad.

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

　The shockwave is small, but the aim is precise.

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

　Above all..,

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

"Mr. Ferrum, I'll use my magic to destroy Mr. Usato's vision!"

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

　Unlike me, he is able to shoot magic bullets continuously from his palm.

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

　With five magic bullets floating in his palm at the same time, Nack throws magic bullets like a barrage, limiting my vision with the flashes of healing magic from the bullets that land.

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

"That's the answer you got!"

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

Nice move!

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

　This is not an imitation of me, but Nack's own healing magic bullet.

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

　At first glance, it looks like a healing magic bullet, but mine is just a forced splitting of the magic forcefully thrown at it.

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

　Nack's bullets are superior in that they are created with pure technology.

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

　......It's kind of interesting that it's similar to the way Mina handles magic.

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

Usato!

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

Catch me!

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

　He moves to avoid Ferrum's dark-magic tentacles and punches a nearby tree, using its reaction to move.

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

　Kicking, punching, and moving through the trees with the line extended from his basket hand, he avoids FERM's attacks.

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

"FELM, that's it!

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

"Ah!"

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

　The branch I'm flying towards is sliced off by Fhelm's dark magic.

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

　I lose my grip, and as I fall, a healing magic bullet and a dark magic bullet close in just as I get the chance.

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

"Ah!"

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

　I quickly enlarged my cage hand and reeled it off in the air.

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

　I land on the ground, letting the impact escape, and smile as I see Nack and Ferrum approaching from the front.

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

"You've been dropped!

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

Now is your chance!　Nack!

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

　They attacked us both at the same time!

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

　This might be a tough one!

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

　He transfers the magic power he had been wearing as a cage to his left shoulder and transforms it into another arm.

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

　He uses it to deal with their onslaught, but...,

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

"Oh, a binding spell. ......!"

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

"Hmmm, the more you touch her, the more she can't move, right?"

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

　Every time you touch Ferme's magic, a simple binding spell is applied.

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

　It can be broken with a little force, but it's not good to put more restrictions on top of this ......!

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

　---And from the look on Nair's face, he's up to something ......!

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

　I break out in a cold sweat as I dodge Nack's hand just in time.

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

"Unlike you, Usato, I can't do that kind of flying!　This height is the easiest for me!

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

"I see!　Sorry about that!

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

　It would be strange if he could jump from one tree to another out of the blue.

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

　I mean, when did I become able to do it?

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

　Was I forced to get used to it while Rose was beating me and playing human pinball with me?

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

"I'm going to take a step back!"

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

　I decide that I'm at a disadvantage at this point, so I leap backward with all my strength on one leg.

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

　Naturally, the two men try to chase me, but I'll just have to regroup and...?

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

　At that moment, I notice that the owl on Ferrum's shoulder is smiling wickedly.

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

"Yes, activate!"

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

"Gooo!"

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

　I try to move as quickly as possible, but a binding spell envelops my body.

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

　Did he already have the binding spell remotely activated when he bound my right arm and left leg? ......!

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

"You're the one who's ......!

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

"Nack!　Ferrum!　I've given you the upper hand!

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

Are you sure?

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

Just touch them at the same time!　He's probably not thinking that far ahead!

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

I see!　You're a genius!

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

　The restraints can be broken immediately, but this momentary gap is huge.

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

　How can I get my whole body out of the restraints and still have time to escape?　Your whole body?

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

Got it!

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

It's over!

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

Not quite!　Nooooo!

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

　I let the other arm I created on my shoulder flex as hard as it can... and punch myself in the face.

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

　Centrifugal force drives a fist into my abdomen, sending me flying backward.

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

"So, you made me hit myself and forced my way out of ......?

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

"Haha, I can't lose yet. ......!"

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

　Nair looks at me in disbelief as I land on my feet, off balance.

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

　Now I've got some distance between us.

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

　All that's left is...,

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

"I know you're going to do that!"

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

"When you're cornered, Usato, you do weird things!"

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

　I came back to myself at the sound of a voice from the front, and I saw Ferrum, who had wrapped Nack in dark magic that had transformed him into a bag, throwing his body toward me with all his might.

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

"Oh, oh!

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

"Hey, Nack!

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

　Nack tackles him with tremendous force.

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

　Just in time!

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

　He manages to adjust his stance and jumps up diagonally to avoid Nack's hands.

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

　Zzzzza!　I see Nack land on the ground as if he were sliding on the ground.

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

　Relieved that he is safe, I look in the direction I jumped and see Amako standing there with her arms wide open.

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

"What are you doing?

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

"I was waiting for you."

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

"---kk!"

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

　At this rate, he would crash into Amaco.

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

　I quickly break the binding spells that were sealing my right arm and left leg, and land on the ground holding Amako in a tight embrace.

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

　I landed on my feet, spinning around and around, and shouted out to Amako, who was meditating in surprise.

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

You're in danger!　Are you hurt or something?

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

"......, as I predicted."

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

"As foreseen?" ...... "Not at all. ......"

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

　You stood there knowing I was going to do this, didn't you?

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

　Yes, I used my right arm and my left leg, so it was kind of a foul on my part, but..,

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

You didn't win.

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

　Amaco lowers himself to the ground and shows his left arm.

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

　In the middle of his forearm, there is a mark of dirt as if he had rubbed his finger on it.

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

"Nack wins!"

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

　Nack's lunge certainly hit.

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

　Only his fingertips were grazed, but he still fulfilled the victory condition of touching me with his hand.

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

"I see. Nack must have worked hard too.

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

　Amako smiles when she sees my arm.

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

　I pull away from her and reach out a hand to Nack, who tries to get up.

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

"You did good. I'm surprised, aren't I?"

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 win.

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

　Nack, still stunned by the situation, grabs my hand and stands up.

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

　The result was exactly what I had expected.

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

　Nack has grown up well.

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

　I am very happy about that fact.

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

"Well, let's get back to the training grounds."

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

Yes!　Oh, about your request: ......"

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

"It was a training exercise, wasn't it?　That's totally fine."

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

　Nack's happy face makes me smile.

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

"Gggggh, I can't help it, but I can't believe Nack took the win. ......!

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

"Amako, you knew this would happen, didn't you?"

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

"Yeah."

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

"I'm scared, I'm scared, I'm scared of the magic of foresight."

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

　Let's call Amako and the others who are talking in the back and go back to the training ground.

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

　There should be lunch brought by Amako, so let's take a break.

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

　After returning dark magic to Ferrum and casting healing spells on everyone, we all head back to the training area..,

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

"Huh?　There's nobody here!　Usato!"

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

　--- he finds his senpai yelling something at the entrance of the training ground.

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

"Oh, it's you!"

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

"Geez, Suzune ......"

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

"Wow, what a pain in the ass ......"

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

　Ferrum, née, that's plain rude.

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

　But did you come to visit me?

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

　As I entered the training area from the woods, a senior member noticed me and came running up to me.

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

"Are you training today, Usato-kun?

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

"Basically, training. Today we play tag lightly, on the condition that I listen to the person who catches me..."

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

"Why didn't you invite me too?"

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

"I'm not going to play a real game of tag with you here."

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

　I never thought I'd hear you say that with such a straight face. .......

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

　If my senpai had participated, it would have been a one-on-one training session with no handicap and a time limit of three minutes.

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

　Playing tag with senpai at full throttle would have been a lot of fun, but it wouldn't have been Nack's training. .......

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

"What's wrong with senior?"

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

"......Yeah, I just got a message from you. I'm here on behalf of the castle."

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

　A message?　What's so important?

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

　I don't know why I'm asking you here, so let's sit close and listen to what you have to say.

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

"Are you hungry, sir?"

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

"I just ate, but I'm hungry!"

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

"That's good. ...... what?　You ate, didn't you?

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

"Don't worry, don't worry, I don't gain weight even if I eat."

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

　At that moment, a tremendous sense of intimidation was directed at my senpai from everyone except me and Nack.

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

　I was shuddering at the tremendous pressure, but my senpai ignored it as if it was nothing to worry about.

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

"I forgot to mention that this guy is outstandingly beautiful in appearance.

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

"Yes, it is. She's a beautiful girl, isn't she? Just in looks.

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

"But what's inside is a real shame."

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

"If you make me cry, you'll cry too.

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 three of them were silent, and the senior member of the group had a smug look on her face.

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

　Seeing her, Nack looks a little taken aback.

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

"That's great, Usato-san. She silenced the three of them with a theory that I don't understand.

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

"That's my senior."

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

　I really have no idea what that means, but...

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

　After washing our hands lightly, we moved to a nearby field with a basket that was said to contain sandwiches.

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

　When we open the lid of the basket, we find three kinds of sandwiches lined up in a basket covered with a cloth.

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

Who made these sandwiches?

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

"Me and Sarla."

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

"Amaco flavor?"

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

　What the hell does that taste like?

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

　I start eating my sandwich, smiling at my senpai as usual.

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

　It seems that they have made quite a lot of sandwiches, which will fill the stomachs of everyone here.

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

"So, what exactly is this message?

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

"I'm ready to contact Mr. Farga, and he wants you to come tomorrow.

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

"Ready to contact?　You mean you're ready to talk to me in person?"

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

　Mr. Farga in Mialak.

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

　I thought I would be communicating with him through letters, but I wonder if we can talk face to face?

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

"I heard that during the past week they have renovated the halls of the castle in order to communicate with Farga in Mialak. It was still going to take some time, but Leona is here. It seems that we can use her connection with her armor to establish a pseudo connection between here and there."

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

"I see, Leona's armor. ......"

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

　Unlike me and my senpai, Leona's armor will have a strong connection with Mr. Farga.

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

　It makes sense that she could use it as a wedge to contact him.

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

"It seems like it's been a long time since I've seen Farga-sama.

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

"I'm looking forward to it. I'm curious to see what they look like, since I could only hear their voices before!"

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

　Well, I can see why senpai would be pleased with the appearance of Mr. Farga, since he looks like a royal dragon himself.

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

　Although the actual Falga-sama seems to be very puzzled.

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

　While I was smiling at such a thought, Amako, who is sitting next to me, starts talking to me before I know it.

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

"Is that the ...... person? He likes Usato, so he might be looking forward to it.

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

"It's easy to be liked by strangers. You."

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

　Amako, however, is not Nair kind of suspicious in the way she says it?

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

　Considering our past relationship, it's not surprising to hear her say so. .......

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

"People like me, too."

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

"Oh, yeah. Freaks like you, too."

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

"......"
