"......?　Sorry, is that possible in the normal sense?"

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

"This guy was able to do it because his sense of sensing magic power has been sharpened to the point of abnormality by a technique called magic spinning, so it's impossible with normal senses.

　When Nair explained on my behalf, Amira and her senpai looked worried.

"It's a strange way to hide. ...... You're not going to teach that to the rest of the world for free, are you?"

"No?"

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

　I nodded at Coga, and he looked surprised, but then he gave me a silly smile.

　There's nothing to hide, and it's better to spread the word.

　While I was thinking this, I noticed that my senpai was staring at Koga with a serious look in his eyes.

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

Hey, Koga!

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

"I suspect you have a little bit of a crush on him, but what do you really think ......?"

"The first kind words you ever said to me were too much!"

"Given the nature of dark magic, it's a real possibility."

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

　The perceptions from Nair and Ferrum are also moderately bad.

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

　I feel sorry for them, so let's clear up the misunderstanding.

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

"Senpai. Koga is just a battle-hungry dark magician who is a bad guy who persistently challenges me to a fight. Ha-ha-ha."

"Nair, you can stay here with Ferrum.

Am I going to be okay if I don't go?

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

Don't worry. I'm just going to see Master Lloyd.

　I'll leave you two in charge of guarding this place, and we'll leave the inn.

"Usato-kun... I think you're a little overconcerned.

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

　Then, suddenly, the older student starts talking to me about that.

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

　I looked at her and saw that she was turning her magic power while looking at her own hand.

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

　I was amazed at how smoothly she was spinning the magic from finger to finger, accelerating the magic to such a degree that I could not believe she had just started.

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

"I can see why you take your mission so seriously. I understand that you are working for the sake of the demon tribe. But you know, sometimes you're a bit self-absorbed."

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

"Is that so ......?"

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

"Yes, it is."

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

　I was assured.

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

　I was not aware of it, but my seniors thought so. .......

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

"You are thinking that in the end you should do this, or at least try to do this. In that final choice, even your own life is at stake.

"That's what ...... is all about."

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 understand. I know what you're thinking. I'm your senior.

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

　I couldn't tell him that the battle with the Demon King was already over.

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

　I was honestly surprised that she knew about my resolve, which I had not mentioned to my senpai.

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

"I'm not saying it's wrong. If you are going to act without regard to my feelings and Kazuki's, then I guess it's the best solution."

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

"But maybe you and I will get angry if we do. Not only you, but the Demon King and even the demon tribe. They will try to get you back by any means necessary."

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

　By any means necessary.

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

　I hadn't thought that far ahead.

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

　At the time, all I could think of was to keep Senpai and Kazuki alive for the sake of hope for the future.

"I have seen you in the parallel world, and I can tell you that I would be the same way if I lost you. That's exactly what I will become, an evil demon who will use any and all kinds of cowardly means."

"No, my seniors would never do such a thing ......."

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

　I lost my senpai and Kazuki in the first battle, and I became a nobody, not even a member of the lifeguard corps.

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

　I can understand why you feel that way.

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

　I guess I'm me .......

　I arrived at the inn of the Lingle Kingdom and was escorted to the room where Master Lloyd was waiting for me.

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

　I was the only one who could talk to Master Lloyd and Mr. Sigurth, since my senpai was going to wait at the door with Kazuki, as if he cared about me.

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

　I was invited into a large room with Mr. Lloyd and Mr. Sigurth, and a large amount of papers were piled up on a table, as if they had been doing their work until a few minutes ago.

"Did Mr. Lloyd know about Mr. Earle personally?"

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

"Weakness ......?"

　Well, I somehow understand that in his case, he never shows it to others since he became the deputy commander.

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

"But I'm sure he won't have to worry about that with you. You are Rose's only apprentice and successor to her will."

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

"Hmm. We are planning to spread the word about the arrangement, but the fact that they are working with the devil won't make much sense. Instead, we need to tell them at the meeting that we have the ...... means to summon the dead."

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

"Indeed, ......."

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

"May I ask you to be more specific?"

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

　Rose has told me, but I would like to hear from Mr. Sigurth as well.

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

"Aur's spirit never wavers in any situation. No matter how bad the odds are against her, no matter if she is surrounded by demons, no matter if she is trapped in a cave where the rubble crumbles and there is no escape, she does not despair and she does not stop.

It's hard to forget something as shocking as that, even if you wanted to.

"Are those people human ......?"

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

There are more. Two large men, Chris and Gilg, roam the streets at night, half naked. Josh, who leaves the exercise and heads out to seduce a woman. And Dinh, who has done nothing wrong but is oddly shadowy and often forgotten."

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

　They're a hell of a lot of people with a hell of a lot of character. ......!?

"Ha-ha-ha, at one time they were the most famous seven in our country."

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

　It makes me a little happy to see that Rose is still Rose, as are the strong men of today.

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

　That's why I'm a little itchy to see those seniors being left to their own devices by the devil.
