　After leaving the realm of demons, we encountered somewhat fewer demons.

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

　Although we still encountered some demons, it was obviously easier than in the realm of demons.

　......Well, from the point of view of Kannagi who is carrying me, it may not be much of a change.

"I can't believe I'm going to be here again!"

　We arrived at the Demon City of Velhazar without any problems.

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

　I got off the kanagi that had been carrying me and approached the gate of the wall that covered the city.

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

　A soldier of the demon tribe who looked like a gate guard noticed me and Kannagi and looked at us quizzically.

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

"A beastman?　What are you doing here?"

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

　I feel that I have arrived a little ...... too early.

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

　After all, it's only been a day or so since we left Hinomoto.

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

　Kannagi has driven almost without a break on a road that normally takes a week or so, so it may be that he has not been told that we are coming.

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

"We are Hinomoto...... messengers from the land of the beastmen. May I ask you to call Usato, a healing wizard who is currently staying in this city?"

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

"....... What, are you acquaintances of that healing wizard?"

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

　Judging from this reaction, Usato seems to be the same as ever.

"Hmph, Kannagi, it's funny how predictable you are now.

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

"Yo, you can afford it. ......"

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

"We already know that, don't we? I'm sure Usato is running around town with a bullring on his back, aren't you?"

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

"You guys really know each other, don't you?"

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

　The gatekeeper mutters, somewhat impressed.

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

　Since this is Usato, he must be running around the city carrying the burin he brought with him.

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

　The gatekeeper, who now knows us as Usato's acquaintance, shows us the direction to the dormitory where he says Usato is staying and then leads us through the streets.

"It's very different from the last time I was here.

"The Demon King had to rebuild it. But it's much more developed than when I was guarding him."

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

　When we attacked this place, it had been fortified by the Demon King's magic, so I was surprised to see it transformed into a city full of people just like the Kingdom of Lingle is now.

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

　But I guess we're still attracting a lot of attention.

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

　I guess one of the reasons is that Kannagi and I are beastmen. .......

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

"Kannagi was here for a while, wasn't he?"

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

"Yeah. To keep an eye on the Demon Lord. I've been helping to rebuild the place for a little while as part of that, so I guess some people know my face."

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

　So there's no hostility or anything like that.

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

　I was prepared for some hostility since I was a member of the group that defeated the Demon King, but I didn't expect this.

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

　Then some children who were running down the street saw us and shouted.

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

　Their eyes are on me, or rather on Kannagi.

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

"Ah, haha... ......"

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

　Kannagi waves back with a twitch of his cheek.

"Hmph!"

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

　Their black cloaks flutter with the impact of their landing.

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

　He stands up, flipping it with his hand, and stares at the six demons who landed on the ground from the rooftop of the building a few seconds later.

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

　The six are breathing hard, but four of them have the same expression as the people in the rescue team, whom Usato calls the tough-looking ones.

"I'm wearing this as a precaution.

　No, wait, I just heard a familiar demon girl's voice coming from the cloak Usato is wearing. ......?

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

"What?　Does that mean ......?"

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

"Of course it's pure legwork. What are you talking about?

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

"I don't know what you're talking about. ......!

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

　A female demoness clenches her fist as Usato cries his shoulders.

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

　The other two women looked like they were about to die, and one looked like she shouldn't be seen by a child.

There are limits!

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

We have the permission of the Devil King. And to prevent anyone from getting caught up in the training, I've asked Koga and Senri-sama to support us from the rear this time, so there's no need to worry.

"Let's resume training!　Anyone who is separated from me will have their training level lowered without question!　If you don't like it--"

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

　Crouching down on the spot, he leaps without even a cloud of dust, runs vertically along the wall of the building where he has his feet, and lands on the rooftop.

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

"Follow me and show me!

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

　He said, and the six demons started to follow him.

　What have you really been doing for the past month?

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

　He is doing far more than I had expected, and I realize that I am still not fully aware of the situation.

　Five of the six people who had been told to rest fell to the ground, but one of them, ...... a female demoness with an expression she couldn't show in public earlier, saw Kannagi and fell to the ground. The blood drained from his face.

　What kind of a misnomer is ......?

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

　The reaction was so different from what we expected that neither Kannagi nor I had any idea what was going on.

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

　I had heard that demons are evil beings who are planning to do bad things, but it seems that Usato had already known that this person was a demon from the beginning.

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

　It's just plain weird.

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

　What's scary about this is that Usato, who is listening to it, seems to have gotten used to it.

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

"What in the world did you do to him, Usato?

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

"That bastard did it again!"

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

　Somehow, it seems that Usato is having a hard time dealing with this demon.

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

　I'd like to hear about that ......, but there's something I should ask you first.

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

"Hmm?　Yes, Amako?

"Where's Keira?"

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

　When I ask Usato, who is still wearing the same black cloak as before, where Keira is, her voice echoes out from the black cloak.

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

　......What, you don't think this is the same ...... as Ferm?

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

　The first thing that comes to mind is the fact that the cloak is a little too black.

　He has a big smile on his face, with no hint of calculation or anything like that.

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

　But considering the characteristics of dark magic of Ferrum and Koga, it is not a funny sight.

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

"Usato-kun. I'd like to discuss something with you about this search. ......An unfamiliar visitor, isn't it?"

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

　As if to catch up with Kannagi and I, who were in a state of shock at the appearance of Keira, a female demoness with purplish hair in a side-tail comes out from a nearby inn.

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

　Usato notices that Kannagi and I don't react, and introduces us to the newcomer.
