3:00 p.m. Kaina village time.

Jin (his double) visits the library to see how things are going. Reiko follows him.

"How are you, Zion?"

And she is mildly surprised. Zion had already read more than ten books.

Even though the contents are abridged, the number of pages is more than 500. His speedy reading is quite impressive.

"Ah, Mr. Jin, this is a wonderful collection! There are so many things I don't know!"

Jin glanced at the stack of books, including <><><><><>.

These books were written down to a level that would be acceptable to anyone, and explained in a simple and concise manner. Even so, there were many concepts that did not exist in this world, and Zion was actively absorbing them.

On the other hand, Lucas, who is supposed to be ...... his escort, is lying down with a book in his hand and dozing off. It seems to be true that he is not good at writing.

"Ha, I hope you like it."

Then he breaks off. Zion seemed to be a little doubtful about the mood of the conversation.

Jin-sama, is something wrong?

"Yes? Why?

"Because the atmosphere is somehow different from usual.

I don't know if the discomfort Zion felt was because he was a substitute doll (double) or because of the information I am about to tell you, but Zion seemed to have sensed something.

Jin decided to tell him the information, thinking it would be better to do so as soon as possible.

"Zion, do the names Istaris and Netros ring a bell?"

"What? Where did you hear those names?

"Oh, actually ......."

Jin explained to Zion that the two had been prisoners of war in the neighboring kingdom of Franz.

"What the hell?

Sion's exclamation echoed through the room. His voice was so loud that even Lucas, who had been dozing off, jumped out of his skin.

"Whoa! What's going on, miss?

My sister has been captured? No way! And Netros too? Lucas, of course, but that Netros? I can't believe it!"

Sion says loudly. His tone is clearly different from before.

"...... Zion?"

"Oh, miss ......"

Jin is stunned, and Lucas frowns. And Zion, on the other hand...

"......Oh,......"

He blushed when he noticed his attitude and tone of voice.

"......I can't believe it!"

"......"

"............"

Jin and Lucas remained silent.

After a few moments of silence, Lucas, who had finally grown impatient with the atmosphere, said something like this

"......Madam, you must stop pretending to be something you're not."

"...... Oh, yes, you're right. ......Jin, I'm going to stop using that creepy language."

"U...... well, that's all right."

It seems that she was a tomboy in the guise of a lady.

"It's not true that Istaris and Netros are in jail! Isn't it true?"

"...... No, it's true. It seems that the mayor of Enak tricked them and poisoned them."

"Poisoned......"

Zion's mouth twisted so tight you could almost hear his teeth grind, and he squeezed out a few frustrated words.

"...... cowardly ......."

"Yeah, it's not fair."

"What?"

Zion and Lucas looked up at each other with a strange expression on their faces as they heard Jin's words of agreement.

"No, isn't it? No, isn't it? You trick and poison the person who came to talk to you. What is this if not cowardice?

"That's true, but ...... I never thought I'd hear such words from a human being."

"That's true, but I never thought I'd hear such words from a human. But that's just a third-party opinion.

Here Jin explained that Marcosius had poisoned the Marquis with arsenic and that Lardus had spread magical exhaustion fever.

"...... Marcosias and Lardus, did they do that?"

Zion sagged when she heard the story.

"You may think that ...... all demons are belligerent. But trust me! There are some clans that aren't!"

"It's easy for you to say that you know. But honestly, you're still not trusted.

Jin confronts him with reality. Zion stared at Jin, but then stood up with a determined look on his face.

"If you can't get people to believe you no matter how much you tell them with your mouth, you have to show them with your attitude," he said. ...... Jin, this is the proof I can give!

In front of Jin's eyes, Zion took off her clothes, revealing her naked body.

"You can do whatever you want!"

Zion stands erect with her eyes tightly closed. But her cheeks are flushed and her body is trembling.

"My Lady!"

"Lucas, shut up!"

Lucas tries to protest, but Zion silences him.

"Come on, Magecraft Meister, Jin! What are you going to do?

"......Ah, ......we're screwed."

On the island of Horai, the real Jin was holding his head in his hands.

"Brother Jin, what's going on?"

Just then Erza arrived.

"Erza?

?"

Erza looked at the magic screen in front of Jin. What she saw there was...

"...... Mr. Zion?"

It was Zion who was completely naked.

"...... Jin? What do you mean?"

Erza's cold voice.

"No, no, it's, it's, it's, it's something ...... like this, this. This is what I've been having trouble with."

The explanation was faltering and rather incoherent because I was in a hurry, but Elsa seemed to understand what was going on.

"Okay. We'd better get her dressed for now."

"Oh, yeah, that's right."

Jin was sweating coldly.

I'm not a demon," Jin said in a cold sweat.

Sion opened his closed eyes gently, wondering why he had exposed his naked body to the demon tribe but they did not do anything to him.

Then he found Jin was not moving as if he was frozen.

(That's ...... strange, isn't it? I heard that human men are vulnerable to this kind of temptation.)

While I was thinking like that, Jin moved. Zion prepared himself.

But Jin turned his back.

"I understand your feeling, Zion. I trust you. So put on your clothes."

"...... you're not going to do anything?"

"Yes. No. Just put your clothes on.

"...... Okay, okay."

With a "you're weird," he said to himself, Zion put his clothes back on. Lucas, who had also turned his back, was relieved.

"I'm ...... dressed!"

At these words, Jin and Lucas turned around and faced Zion again.

"Now I'm going to ask you again. What do you want to do now, Zion?"
