As soon as I walk out of the gate, I use my transition magic tool.
　Up to this point, I came back with Liliwood-san's continuation of her guide to the magical world, but since there's nothing particularly new on the road to the gate of the human world, I decided to transition.
　In an instant, the landscape was distorted and I could see the familiar Lilia-san's mansion in front of me.

　Umm, it's convenient but......still feels a bit weird after using it. There was no problem with the gate when moving from the human world to the demon world, but.......is there some kind of magic power relationship?
　Anyway, I returned to Lilia-san's mansion safely.

　When I moved to my room to tell Lilia-san that I was back, Lilia-san and Luna Maria-san were inside and greeted me with a gentle smile.

''Welcome back. Kaito-san. How was the demon world?
'I'm back now. Yes, it's such a beautiful, vast place, and I enjoyed just looking at the view.
'Well, that's good to hear... by the way, I'd like to ask you one thing...'
Yes?

　Lilia-san nods with a gentle smile, and then for some reason, her expression suddenly changes to a serious one.
　As she tilts her head at the situation, Lilia-san opens her mouth while slowly folding her hands in front of her face.

''Ah, I know it's impossible, but.......you don't mean to say that you met with the Dragon King-sama or something like that, do you?
I'm sorry. We met.
....
Miss!

　

''.........Why.........is this person........all he does when he goes out is to the Sixth King-sama......''
Miss, be careful, the wound is still fresh.
''Oh, thank you.
....
'Why do you look away?　Mr. Kite.

　Lilia-san speaks with a pale expression while shaking her hands....very scary.
　

　Thinking about that, I intentionally take out the scales Magnawell-san gave me from inside the magic box.

''...I got the scales.
....

　The expression disappeared from Lilia-san's face.
　The air was so frightening that as she stretched her back involuntarily.......Lilia-san's body sank like a puppet with its strings cut.

''.........Kyu~''
Miss!

　The scales over 5 meters long that I took out seemed to have exceeded Lilia-san's tolerance range in an instant, and she turned her eyes and fell down on the desk.
　




















　After a while, Lilia-san revived from fainting, and she sits down with her knees in the corner of the room.

''It's really........funny Kite.......it's crazy......why me all the time.
'Miss you poor thing...'
Why are you laughing?

　Lunamaria-san was a stable Lunamaria-san, smiling at Lilia-san who was depressed and smiling at her, and she was instantly scolded.
　But what should I do........I'm sorry Lilia-san, but I'm really sorry....

Oh, uh, Lilia?
Yes?
...Well, I've got something for you from Mr. Isis....
....

　Hearing my fearful words, Lilia-san hears me tell her, and she looks like she's about to start crying...no, she's crying a bit more.
　Feeling somewhat like I'm torturing her and feeling uncomfortable, I place the jewelry that Isis-san told me to give to Lilia-san on the desk.

''.........What......what is this.......''
These are the blue diamonds and ice crystals that Mr. Isis gave me.
'That's a tremendous amount. And all of them have a wonderful depth of color, lady - isn't this a tremendous amount of money?


　Looking at the beautiful blue jewels piled up like a mountain, Lilia-san holds her head in her hands and falls on her face.
　Then, after trembling for a while as it was, she looked up vigorously and.......

'Oh no!　Mr. Kite's stupid ah!

　........I started to cry.

''What do you want me to do with this amount of jewelry?
'What?　R, Lilia-san, oh, calm down...
Why do you always have to do all the things that make me sick to my stomach?　It really does make a hole in your stomach already!
Suffer, Lillia... fall, fall...

　She grabbed me by the chest and rocked me back and forth violently in the air.
　However, Lilia-san's expression is already looking full, and she has a very pitiful face with tears streaming down her face, so I can't strongly disobey her.
　What can I say, I'm really sorry, Lilia-san.

''Miss, do you want to ask me before you make Miyama-sama faint.......''
Yes, Luna!　Now I'm busy....
"No, it's been bothering me for a long time, but I think the young lady used to turn bright red right away when she touched a man who wasn't part of her family, but you're okay with it, Miyama-sama?
Huh?

　Hearing the words that Lunamaria-san told me so matter-of-factly, the strength in my grip on my chest weakens and my body falls to the ground.
　Released from the agony of feeling like I'm going to faint, I breathed out loudly and turned my gaze towards Lilia-san.......Lilia-san's face had turned bright red like a boiled octopus.

''........Eh?　Was I just touching you, Kite?
'Now, or rather, I've mentioned it a few times before. It was so close to my face that it almost took my breath away.
Huh?　Aww, aww, duh, because, you know, it's just, you know, I'm so full of it, I'm not aware of it at all, hahahaha.

　With a face so red that it looks like smoke is about to come out, Lilia-san turns her eyes around, muttering something in a panic.
　What is it, I've figured it out from my previous experience..........I'm probably going to faint soon.


Miss Lilia?

　Lilia-san turns her eyes as expected and falls to the ground as it is.
　I hurriedly run over to her, and after confirming that she is not injured for the time being, I turn to Lunamaria-san.

".........Lunamaria-san. What's going on here?
"Perhaps it's because the young lady was raised in an all-female environment, but she's not immune to men at all, so even just shaking hands with her is enough to make her turn red.
...I mean, now?
''Perhaps my remarks reminded him of everything I've ever touched Miyama-sama, and his embarrassment overcame him... it's a pity.
You did it on purpose, didn't you?
No way.

　Indeed, if you think back on what was said, Lilia-san only touched me when she was basically confused.............only when she was one step away from fainting, but otherwise she never touched me.
　

　Dear Mom and Dad - I'm really sorry for the trouble I've been causing Lilia-san. But this time my fainting was different from the usual - it was out of embarrassment.

























　A figure in black appeared in the grocery store in the dusk light.
　That person takes one of the daggers hanging on the wall of the grocery store and wraps a black cloth around it before placing it on the counter.

''........request?''

　It's a sign behind the scenes of this grocery store owner a sign of a request for an underworld worker.
　The costumed shopkeeper looks at the black-clad figure and asks in a cold voice.

''I would like you to kidnap a certain person.
Not a killer, but a kidnapper.
Yeah, he's pretty good at what he does.
Well, I suppose that depends on what they're paying you.

　

''Ten white gold coins up front......................30 for success.
That's very tasty and this is the face you've been waiting for, isn't it?
This is not a being from this world. I'm a human from another world and my name is 'Miyama Kite'........
So you're from another world... yeah.

　To the words told by the black-clad figure, Alice returns the words in a matter-of-fact manner without getting upset at all.
　And after looking at the person's description for a while, she takes the white gold coin in her hand.

''........Let's accept it. What's the deadline?
The sooner you can, the better I'll need you to bring it to the place I've given you.
You're not going to hand it over, are you going to take it?　Does that mean we're dealing with a really bad guy?
...here's the information.

　Saying that, Alice flips through the proffered bundle of papers and opens her mouth without seeming to be bothered.

''........Well, it seems to be no problem. Well, in the coming days........
"You did.

　Hearing Alice's words as she tells him that she'll take the request, the black-clad figure turns away, as if to say he has nothing more to say, and leaves the shop with a brief word.
　After seeing the figure off, Alice looks at the paper with Kaito's face written on it and mutters to no one.

''........Well, this is one fate.......too bad. I liked Kaito-san quite a bit, but........

　The eyes of the masked girl in the stuffed suit, illuminated by the light shining through the window, were.......icy cold.
