Isn't that white bear staring at Kosuke?

　Not only Takigawa, but Ishida and Aihara-san also seemed to have noticed the strange killing atmosphere emitted by the polar bears.

"Yuki-kun is the type of person who is liked by animals. That's nice.

　Only the chairman of the committee didn't notice.

''Grrrr........''

　There is a deep moat between us and the polar bears, so they can't get to us, but the kill is great. I couldn't take my eyes off of it.

It's so powerful! But I feel like it's weird.'
Ur?

　I'm surprised that Ur suddenly speaks to me, but he says something that bothers me more than that.

'Is it weird?'
Yeah. It looks like she's being manipulated by a witch doctor. You've got something on the bear's neck.

　When I look at the neck of the polar bear while straining my eyes, I can see a faint magical collar-like object.

''So this is the magic that controls the polar bear...''

　The Army of Fools. Magic that places animals and thought-depleted targets under its control. The more animals or objects under its control, the less controllable it becomes, and the more simple commands it can give. On the other hand, with single domination, it is possible to execute complex commands and share consciousness.

　I see, I understand. I've learned it at the same time.
　This was an unexpected harvest at the zoo, following on from the museum.

"Maybe he's trying to manipulate that bear to attack his master.
"I don't remember him being attacked...

　Yes. The people who stole the fairy seed may well be attacking me to get it back.

What am I going to do? I don't want to just stare at a polar bear.
''If the master can do similar magic, I suppose I could override it or something.''
Overwriting?
''Yeah. If you stack magic with the same effect, the stronger one wins!''

　I see!

"Army of Fools....

　Activate magic with a whisper. Normally, a long chant is required, but if you use magic through Ur, you can activate it without chanting. It's convenient.

The first time I saw him, he said, "Master can use similar magic? Wow! Why! Why!'
"Okay, looks like you made it.

　Ignoring the urls, I checked the results of the sorcery, and it seemed to have succeeded.
　I think the color of the polar bear's eyes changed from murderous intent to respect.

'Um, sit.'
"Kuhn.

　In response to my words, the polar bear sat there.

'Cute!'

　The chairman of the committee is on the verge of losing his mind at the sight of an obedient polar bear.

"Holy shit, they're really disciplined.
Bears are so smart, aren't they?
It's lovely.

　Takigawa and the others are surprised at the sight of a well-disciplined polar bear.
　Since the activation of the sorcery took place in a split second, Auru and Junna don't seem to have noticed that it was a phenomenon caused by magic.

''For now, I guess it's all settled for now.

　With that little murmur, the visit to the Asahiyama Zoo came to a safe end.







My 'Army of Fools' has been........broken!

　Having severed his connection with the polar bear he had controlled to determine Kosuke's power, Io was astonished at the fact that his own magic had been broken.

'Io's magic ... was broken ... for the first time I've seen it broken.

　Even Ferrum, who doesn't show much emotion, can't hide his surprise.

　Although Io is a sorcerer, he is also an xenophobe who possesses the rank C 'hypnosis' xenophobe.
　Normally a heteros*xual person cannot use magic, but the magic organization she belongs to, the Dusk and Dawn Group, discovered a special magic formula that allows them to use it simultaneously if they have the same lineage (...) of heteros*xual ability and magic, and had given it to Io's body.
　This is a fusion technique that enables the simultaneous use of different abilities and magic. The 'Fools of the Family' that Io uses has been transformed into the 'Army of Fools', a brainwashing spell of a different dimension.

If there's a power or magic that can defeat the Army of Fools I'm not sure I can be of any use in this mission.

　This is a technique that omits the chanting of magic, reduces magical power consumption, and increases its effectiveness many times over. This technique has many advantages, but it also has a major disadvantage.
　It is that only one magic completed by the fusion technique can be used.
　In Io's case, it is no longer possible to use magic other than the 'Army of Fools' created by the fusion formula.

''Don't worry ... I'm ... there.

　Ferrum, who, like Io, had a fusion technique carved into his body, muttered as he shook his black robe suspiciously.

''Right. I'll ask for it then. But still, where is that idiot of a chrome going to be? I told you to keep an eye on the subject in disguise...

　Io continues to speak, wondering about Chromium's disappearance.

''Well, that's fine. When the time comes, all we have to do is get the 'fairy seed' back on our own.

　Io muttered and made his next move.
