Why is the most powerful warrior holy knight in the St. Schurur Cooperative Kingdom in the Adventurer's Guild?
'Well, why did Lumina and the others go to Melatoni?　No, more importantly, are you in the Adventurer's Guild?

　Lumina-san and the others stopped at the entrance of the cafeteria, and on behalf of her, Lumina-san opened her mouth.
"Actually, the Pope has ordered us, the War Maiden Holy Knights of the Holy Order, to safely deliver the Master of the Sage Luciel to Meratni, and if possible, to find out the secrets that made him so strong as a healer."
　How on earth did the Pope give such an order?　

''Well you all know that you don't have to give such orders, but you all know that it's because my master trained me for two whole years, right?
''Yes. That's why other orders were also issued together with the "War Maiden Holy Knights of the Holy Order of the War Maidens to acquire the power to defeat not only the St. Surreal Cooperative Kingdom, but also the Demon Race and the Demon King."
　What's the order?　Moreover, they are the best fighting force in the St. Schrul's Cooperative State, so why did they act like they were the ones to keep away?　

With the War Maidens of the Holy City out of the Holy City, how is St. Schur's Church headquarters safe?
'Yes. It seems that our presence would be a hindrance to reform in order to keep us in line.... That's why I was thinking of going around the world to investigate whether or not the Healer's Branch is operating properly after this assignment is over.
　Was it?　Ah, so that's why you want to accompany me.
　Nevertheless, I could understand why Master was bothered by the explanation in a way.
　Master must have wanted to hide the fact that he was escorted.
　And Lionel is looking at Master with an amused look on his face.

'So the reason why people are gathering in the underground training grounds is because Lumina-san and the others were there?　I thought it was strange because usually my master is either alone with a pothead or he brings the adventurers into the basement to train them... ouch...
　With a spaan, my master slapped me on the back.
''Say whatever you want.''
Ah, Master, you're back.
...somehow. I'm not the kind of blown-up pervert who drinks that stuff without a care in the world.
It's like I'm a total freakin' pervert who doesn't mind drinking that stuff, you know? It's outrageous. It's disgusting, it smells bad, and it's not like I'm taking pleasure in it.
Hey, can you do something about the smell?
'What?　Ah, then, Purification.
　I activated Purification on myself as well, just to make sure my master and I were safe, and I could tell from the look on his face that the effect was immediate.

I'm proud of you. I've been drinking this stuff for countless years," he said.
Don't be impressed by the weirdness of it.
　Then, the War Maiden Holy Knights trooped into the dining room.......could they have been worried about the smell of Object X?

'Master, have these girls ever smelled object X?　Or did you drink it?
They made me take an oath that I couldn't say anything about.
　Master spoke with such a distant look in his eyes.
　What kind of pressure did you use to get your master to pledge or something?　But now I only know that Lumina and the others have an accurate grasp of object X.

''So, Luciel-kun, we would like to accompany you, if that's alright with you?''
''Hmm, we'll have to see how strong you are. I know for sure that Lumina-san and everyone else is strong. But where we're going to go from here, we're going to need both group and individual strength.
　In the first place, I don't know much about the current War Maiden Holy Knight Squad's strength itself.
　They trained me well when I was still at the church headquarters, but I can't take them with me if they aren't that strong compared to that time.
　I know that I'm talking big, but it can't be helped since the opponent I'm trying to fight will be a dragon species.

''Then how can I get them to allow me to accompany them?''
'Let's do some group combat. The judges will be Lionel and Master. How about the War Maiden Holy Knights versus me, Kefin, Keti, Nadia, and Lydia?
'....Does that underestimate our abilities?
　Well, with half the number of people, it's only natural to think so.......

''No, I think that with this group of people, we can probably destroy the knights of the Holy City, except for the War Maiden Holy Knights. The reason I'm not including Lionel and Master is because I want them to see if they have the strength to fight the dragons accurately.
　I really think they're that good.
　I feel bad for deciding for Kefin and the others, but Kefin and Ketty hadn't fought against the War Maiden Holy Knights since they were raised to a higher level, so you can see what they are capable of now.

''........I understand. But may I ask you to judge me on the basis of victory or defeat?
'Yes. That's the simple (simple) thing to do. It's been a while since I've fought Lumina-san, but I'm looking forward to it.
You're welcome.
　Lumina-san's eyes seemed to have fire in them.

''Chi, you're a judge (judge) this time?''
　The master clucked his tongue in a boring way, but he didn't seem to be opposed to the mock battle.

'Master Luciel, would that mean we'd have to stay overnight in Melatni?
'Hmm, well, I guess so. I have a feeling that flying at night would be dangerous...
Well, that's the way it has to be.
　Come to think of it, it's been half a month since I called you from Yenis out of the blue.

Lionel would have wanted to head to Yenis because of Nahlia, but I'm sorry.
No, if you have the numbers to fight, it will have to be done. Then I'll have to get a place to stay.
　It's really a mirror of the squire already.
　I'll think of something to reward you with.

'Then I'll get it for you. Luciel and the others should eat first.
Thank you, Master.
Naturally, you'll have to put Luciel up in the basement.
　Oh, this smile is going to make me fight until I'm satisfied........
　But I couldn't refuse that proposal.


''In that case, we'll go downstairs and make a plan first.
Yeah. I'll be on my way to the training grounds in an hour.
I'll see you later then...
　Lumina-san told her that and headed towards the entrance of the dining room, but Lucy-san and Elizabeth-san approached us, as if they still had business to attend to.

Thank you for saving me that time.
''Thank you, Luciel-sama, for saving me from becoming a demon race in both my consciousness and body.
　Both of them seemed confused about how to treat me as a wise man.

''Since I'm away from the St. Schuler's Church headquarters for one thing, I'm not higher in rank than the two of you, so I'd appreciate it if you would treat me the same way you've always treated me.
Yeah?　But thank you so much.
'I see that your attitude hasn't changed much, Luciel-san, even though your position has changed.
I'm still a young man, you know.
　It's not just my mentor and Lionel, who I admire, but he really makes me realize what I'm not aware of and teaches me a lot.

''It's like Luciel. But the match will be won by the War Maiden Holy Knights.
Prepare yourself.
'Oh, well, one message for Lumina-san. If you think this is just a mock battle, it will be over in an instant. Please tell her that much.
　I smile a little and intimidate him.

'Wow, okay,'
So, uh,
　They walked out of the dining room.


'So, Luciel, have you already decided whether or not you want to take him with you?'
'No, not yet. If even one of us faces the dragon and decides that we are either stalling for time or can't escape, we can't take him with us. That's why I asked the two of you to be referees, who can also accurately measure the growth rate.

'Another trouble I suppose if that's what it is, then I'll have to do it.
I'm on it.
　Master Brod was reluctant, but for some reason he nodded, holding back a laugh.
　Lionel was still the same.

'Luciel, help me bring in the food.
　Then Mr. Gruger called out to me, and it seemed there were two dishes, one normal and one with a lid on it.
This is the dish with the object X. I'm sorry, you can have it over here. I'm sorry, but you'll have it over here.
Well, I thought you were going to deliver the food.
'I'll carry the normal food, but Luciel, you can take it to your own mouth.
What?　Yes, Master.....
Brod would have left as soon as I called out to him.
　was able to conspire.
　Thus, I ended up eating a dish with object X for two people, even for my escaping master, and I managed to eat it up while everyone else was tucking into other dishes with a sideways glance at me.
　Then some adventurers were praising me, but no one approached me.

　I moved to everyone's table to activate Purification and have a meeting with the War Maiden Holy Knights to fight the War Maiden Holy Knights, while reminding myself that Object X has the effect of exorcising people as well as demons.
