It was decided that I would be staying at the home of Kite, who said he was his father's apprentice.

'Please come and stay at my house,'

　Kite invited me to join him.

'I live with my wife now.
You're married?
Yes. A year ago.

　When I went to the house, I found the woman I met at the academy earlier, Koofa-san, who was there.
　Apparently she was Kaito-san's wife.

　Kaito-san is a professor at the red academy and Koofa-san is a professor at the blue academy.
　There was also a woman named Colette who was a childhood friend of both of them at home.





　That night, Leila and I were resting in the same room.
　Suddenly I felt an unpleasant feeling and woke up.

".........

　My eyes met with Leila's.
　Apparently, Leila sensed it too.

　We had come to naturally wake up whenever danger approached, no matter how much we had fallen asleep.
　It's a feeling that we absolutely had to acquire in order to survive in the dangerous forest, where demons abounded.
　Otherwise, we would be attacked in our sleep and die.

　Anyway, the fact that we were all awake at the same time means that we are definitely in some kind of danger.

　Just then, the door to our room opened, and something jumped at us.

'Yo!'
"Ei.

　The two of them ducked it and quickly decided to joint and seize it.

''Woah!''

　A slender woman flails about, emitting an animal-like voice.
　And yet, with considerable force, she tries to force her way out of the joint despite the fact that it's a determined joint.

　If this is the case, my body will break.

　Me and Leila simultaneously used white magic to force the intruder to sleep.
　Then we saw their faces and we gasped for breath.

''This sister........''
It's Mr. Kufa.






　The cause seemed to be vampires.
　The seemingly peaceful magical city had been ruled by vampires without anyone knowing it.

'We will defeat the vampires. I've tracked down their whereabouts last night.''

　We decided to raid the vampires' stronghold in the daytime, following our father's lead.
　They didn't like the sun, so they hid in the basement of the building during the day.

　And since most of them were sleeping soundly, we succeeded in taking them by surprise.

''Huh?　Two, human...?
Holy Ray.
Giaaaaahhhh!

　And so we steadily wiped out the vampires in our base.

'Okay, that's all of them.'
It's over.

　When we finally finished crushing all the bases, a vampire with a powerful magical power that set us apart from those we had fought before appeared in front of us.

''You two try it together.''
'Yes!　I'll do my best!
'What?　Are we going to do that?

　Her mother raised her voice.

'Hey, wait a minute!　This guy's not just any guy!　Probably the head of the Demon King's army!　I don't care how dangerous it is!
Don't worry. You've got a good match.

　Well, I'm used to my dad's recklessness.
　

''Kukuk........hahahahahaha!　The kid?　You know who I am?　Human parents are terrible with themselves for being the first to sacrifice their children.
All right, son, let's not be so careless. It's already started.
What?

　As his father had said, Leila was slashing at the vampire in flesh and blood.
　She slashed her neck with a zap.


I'll be fine!

　The wound disappeared in an instant.
　It seems to be on a different level than the previous guys, after all.

　But how about this one?

　I used white magic and put a purifying light on my sword.
　With it, I slashed the vampire's back.

　

''Kukuku, I'm a true ancestor, right?　Whether it's cleansing magic or sunshine, it's not valid before me here.

　A vampire with a slight twitch in his cheeks, perhaps a little irritated after being attacked by two children, laughs at the vampire with a slight twitch in his cheeks.

''Ark.''
Yes.

　That exchange alone was enough to get through to me and Leila.
　It's not like we're playing twins on the date.

　I'm not going to be able to say that I'm not going to be able to get it right.
　Though only slightly, Leila is good at red, yellow and white, while I am good at blue, green and black.

　It's a good idea to be able to have a good time with them.

　As I expected, Leila's magic power separated into three types: red, yellow and white.
　For me, it's blue, green and black.

　The six types of magic power are mixed together by our connected hands.

　........In practice, I've never succeeded in this before.
　But I think it's possible to do it now.

　Ready, go!

"Illumination!

　My voice and Layla's voices overlapped perfectly, and at the same time, the strongest magic that could annihilate all forms of matter was unleashed.

　The vampire that until a moment ago had been completely ineffective no matter how much me and Layla had attacked it, disappeared without even being able to raise a decapitated voice.
　Probably, it was impossible for him to even realize his own death.

''........Defeated it?''
Yeah, maybe.
Yay!

　I exchanged high fives with Leila.

　This is how the magical city was also freed from the control of the Demon King's army.





''Okay, let's go to the Demon King's place to train the two of us.

　What?



　　　　　◇ ◇ ◇



　The western part of the continent was the first region to be threatened by the Demon King's army.
　Most of the countries and cities had already been occupied, and the cities that were still resisting were being driven to the brink of falling.

　The Edelheid Kingdom.
　This country located in the western part of the continent had also been attacked by the Demon King's army.

　The major cities were destroyed one by one, and only the royal capital was left.
　However, the capital was also attacked by the Demon King's vicious army, and although brave soldiers are still somehow preventing it from falling at the water's edge, it is only a matter of time before it falls.

''O~a~........''
It's me, Leanne!　Please stop this!　I don't want to hurt you!
Don't think it's one of us, idiot!　There's no reason to be rational now that you're undead!　For that man's sake, make sure you kill him right here!
Shit I'm sorry, Leanne!　Whoa, whoa, whoa!

　The warriors were tormented by those who were supposed to have been their friends just a few moments ago.
　I'm sure you'll find a lot of people who have been killed by the demons, but they have turned into undead and are attacking you.

　Perhaps there is a necromancer on the side of the Demon King's army.
　Thanks to this, the more troops on our side were lost, the more enemy forces were lost, which was a nightmarish situation.

　Eventually, that demon's hand was closing in on the royal castle located in the center of the royal capital.
