The fact that the heads of countries are paying attention to this game of tag, as the children call it, is also very strange.
　It's a good idea to have a good idea of what you're going to do with it.

　There is no need to conceal the truth about Ars's unusual abilities at this time, but after daring Loki, he never expected that he would have to go along with the game.

　Ars has such a melancholy look on his face. It's a good idea to be able to have a good idea of what you're looking for. The table has been moved to a corner, and the space thus created is only slightly smaller than a section of the training grounds.

　I'm sure you'll be able to find a way to make the most out of your time with us.
　This is why they say they are magicians, so the world looks like peace itself. However, if you look at it from a different perspective, even they are mages, the world may not have changed at all after all. The threat to humanity has not been eliminated at all.

　It's a good thing that they have only lived for twelve or three years, because they have to face an existence that doesn't involve reason.
　In a sense, what Ars has done so far may have been to greet this day in a way. This is the day when humanity will launch its first counterattack against demons, a day to reclaim what was taken from them, a day to raise the smoke.

　--Well, what is to be done?

　That's what I'm inwardly overflowing with, because I've attracted the attention of all the people here. The meeting had to be suspended for that reason.
　For a child's entertainment, it's no wonder that there is a mix of seriousness in their gaze. Balmes is the most defensibly insecure of the seven nations.

　They're certainly hoping for a growth spurt in their young buds. They won't be the measure of Balmes' national strength on their own, but the nations will want to see some potential in them.
　It is true that there is such a cleverly hidden price tag for how much Balmes' main strength is.

　In the end, Ars is being used as an excuse.

　It's a good thing that you're able to get the most out of this.
　Standing in line, it was clear that he was also a small authority figure. He was probably the youngest head of state in the country, but he was not yet ready to support a country. Even so, his sincerity to serve his country to the best of his ability was evident in his words and actions.

You should not worry too much about it. I've been there myself, and I'm starting to think that maybe it's even customary. This much is quite mild........well, I was surprised at the game of tag.
'Haha, that's about the only way I know how to play with them. I'm often made to play with them too, but I've never caught them.

　It's a good thing that you're able to get a good idea of what you're looking for. It's a good idea to be able to have a good idea of what you're looking for when you're looking for a job.

　The look that Cyan gives to Rhea and Mare is more intimate than words. I'm sure you'll be able to find out what's going on in the world.
　It's not the length of their relationship, but their density.

　It's not just the length of the relationship, but the density. No, it should be said that he could sense it.

''Perhaps it's unfounded.''
.........?

　Cyan couldn't hear or understand Ars's words without context, and he gave a small tilt of his head.

　It's just that the current Cyan can't understand what Letty meant by 'dyed-in-the-wool'. The more he learned about the outside world, a different world that is beyond human knowledge, the more he would understand it.
　Just as Ars, who had spent a lot of time in the outer world, couldn't get used to the academy....................just as the people inside were unknowable beings, the inside and outside could easily dye a person.
　Otherwise, they wouldn't be able to live on the outside.

'Well, let's get started. Is it a game of tag, which means we have to catch it?
You don't know?
You don't know?

　Even Ars, as expected, knows at least the name and has the rules as knowledge. But this was the first time to do it. However, until I looked it up, I had mistakenly thought that, as the word suggests, it was to kill demons called demons in a teasing manner.

'Touching it isn't enough.'
You can't just grab your clothes.
I don't care where you grab them, but you have to catch them properly so they can't get away.

　It was quite abbreviated, but it generally seemed to be no different from the rules Ars understood.

'We'll run away, so do the demon~'
He's an ogre.
It's all right.

　It's perfect for Ars, who doesn't want to move much. It's not a good feeling, but it's certainly not a good feeling, because being called a demon makes you feel like you're a demon. It's also not enough to get angry at every single thing a child says, though.

　It's a good thing that you're not going to be able to get away with it," he said, adding that the location is limited to this space. Also, he warns Rhea and Mair not to bother them in any way, with a brotherly tone.
　However, it was obvious to everyone that their reply was just a superficial one. The bottom line is that they can't wait to play.

　Since the meeting was interrupted, Cyan immediately gave the signal to start.
　But--.

　-- It was the purpose of exploring Balmes' strength at first, but it might be a bit more than we expected.

　A continuous sound like popping the floor rang out. The two figures were scraping away at an uncommon speed. Only the sound eerily buzzed around them.
　Within a space that wasn't that large, Rhea and Mea possessed physical abilities that an ordinary magician could never reach.
　It's not even possible for Cyan, who isn't even a magician, to catch them.

　It's not just a matter of time before you'll be able to see them. Perhaps because they could hardly follow them with their eyes, their eyes had already been switched to keep the whole thing in sight.

　The girl's chuckle arrives on the wind.

'She's the strongest one, right?　The "rare
Yes, mare.
'Do you think it's true?　They're not following me at all, okay?
It's kind of boring.

　Immediately after exchanging a few words or two without losing a single breath, Ars, who stood just in the middle, lightly tapped the floor with his toes as if to check the condition of his shoes, which he is not very used to wearing.
　And then his eyes move as if he suddenly showed interest - and they crossed paths with Mea.

'Aha, I can see you, Rhea.
"Yes, ma'am.
Do it. - Yes, sir.

　A moment later - the two who had been running on the floor so far jumped and included the air in their escape range. It kicked the empty air and ran with even greater speed.


You're not going to be able to get a foothold in the air, are you? That's pretty dexterous.''

　Letty expressed her impressions somewhat admiringly.

　She was the only one here who was able to open her mouth. It was probably because it was Letty's personality. The other single wizards, after all, don't do anything like that to verbalize their evaluations here.
　It's probably a good sounding thing when it comes to evaluation.

　Even Loki, who was staring at it intently, was sure that the speed was worthy of tongues wagging. Because it might possibly be at a level comparable to the level when using 【Force】.
　Even so, he dexterously listened to Letty, who was next to him and whose tone of voice was hard to judge if she was being honest or not.

''I see. Not the scaffolding, but the soles of your shoes?

　Letty instantly saw through it, perhaps sowing the seeds for Cisernia and Loki to hear. It didn't help that the other heads of state were listening as well.

'You've defined the coordinates pretty solidly, haven't you? That's it........an application of reprographic technology. It's called rewriting the law.

　It uses the air as a foothold by holding the ground surface of the foot firmly in place at the moment of kicking out. This is a method of misleading the world into believing magic and magic as a substantive object, which is also seen in the earth system and other systems. Of course, its deterioration is remarkable, but a moment of kicking out is probably enough.

　However, it's not an easy technique. Fanon is able to locally activate objective barriers and use them as a foothold, but what the girls are doing is firing continuously to a tremendous degree. It had already reached the point where it was impossible to do so.

It's amazing. Is there a seed in the shoe?

　Saying as if it was a blanket statement, Letty glanced at the silver-haired girl next to her and brought her into view. A soothing smile colored Letty's mouth as she looked at Loki, who was probably cheering inwardly as she looked at him.

　Neither the heads of other countries nor the non-single wizards gathered here would have thought about it until they figured out the technology that Rhea and Mair were doing. How great it is and how talented they are. The only thing they could tell was the uncommon speed.

'Great is great, but.............ah!　Hm?
--!

　As soon as Letty mentioned it as if it were someone else, she realized something. And it was the same for Loki. But neither of them could be sure, just barely visible.

　What Letty's awkwardly crumpled smile meant was something only the two of them could tell from an angle.



　It was all too fleeting for things to start moving. Of course, there was no way Letty would miss the signs that Ars was starting to move, either.

　Leah and Mea were kicking in the air, sometimes running across the floor, and the two of them were occasionally passing by Ars's side, as if to provoke him.
　And right after the two of them tried to run from the left and right behind Ars to taunt him - right after the two of them had tried to taunt him.

　In an instant, Ars had moved to the middle of the two of them with only a backstep.

''Lie!'' "--Hey!

　The two of them felt their speed stop with a whimper as Mea raised her voice in astonishment.
　That's right, Ars, who stood in the middle, had grabbed each of their ankles in that split second.

'Gotcha!'

　Ars, leaving a scorching trail on the floor, is easy enough to secure them both.
　But it doesn't stop there.

　They forcefully twist one leg, which is grabbed by a force that cannot be dislodged, and change their positions. Raising their upper bodies, the girls twisted their hips as they were, and released a kick at Ars's face from both sides.
　You can also try to escape as soon as possible in the sense that you can catch them for sure.

　Humph, the only sound that cut through such air was an empty sound at the back of Ars's neck.
　Ars ducked his head and passed over the kick that was unleashed from directly in front of him. And then, the two people who had been evaded by the kick lost their stance in the air........only a slight release, but the girls were being held by both sides of Ars in the next moment.

　The two of them, who were stunned by what had happened, were held by their sides without power and turned their heads dexterously to look at Ars with a scowl.
　This was the first time he had ever been caught playing tag. It was a game of tag that he often employed in his play with Cyan, but of course, he had never been able to catch the two of them before, even against a guard mage who was a substitute for the busy Cyan.

''I mean, why aren't you guys wearing underwear?''

　With their feet plodding, Leah and Mea lowered the corners of their eyes and looked at each other in wonder.
　Yes, both Letty and Loki had noticed that they were not wearing underwear. It was only visible to the two of them from an angle, but of course Ars also noticed because the hem fluttered in front of him.

We decided on it together, you know. We talked about it properly. We said we wouldn't wear it!
'Yes. We've discussed it thoroughly and decided. I won't wear them!

　The two girls who say this as if it were a matter of course, Ars cannot find the words to reply to them. It's a good idea to be able to have a good idea of what you're looking for.

　It's a very good idea to have a good idea of what to do with it. It's hard to know which is right.

''No, I don't think it's something to be dignified,''

　Cyan, who had come by to overhear such a conversation, overheard it and covered his face with his hand.

I'm sure you're not the only one. There's no way I'm going to check...

　The young head of state seemed to be in trouble. It seemed that his hardships weren't all about national politics.

　When the arms that were holding them were untied, Rhea and Mea landed lightly with a ton of light. And an uncontrollable smile peeked out of their mouths, as if to say that annoying Cyan is the reason for living.
