Demon Girl ~Tale of a Lax Demon~

ch as possible.

But for me, I am merely [Checking the Facts].

I knew Yuuki-kun’s ability, and from the information that I’d gotten from his about heroes, heroes couldn’t use healing magic, and could only use [Recovery Magic] to boost their healing ability.

But that was information from twenty years ago.

And yet, Kyoji looked as if he was about 30 years old right now…… Although my intuition told me that Yuuki-kun had been killed by him, when Yuuki-kun died, Kyoji was still on Earth.

Did I guess wrongly? Or did the timelines get messed up……?

Although I haven’t done a thorough examination of the area, I wasn’t able to precisely measure Kyoji’s ability……

 

“That’s ridiculous! Kyoji-sama was summoned as a hero 14 years ago.
With his healing powers as the [Hero of Water], the other heroes are nothing compared to him.”

 

““………”“

As Bianca proudly declared so, Kyoji’s smile grew cold, and my smile deepened slightly.

Is that alright, Kyoji? ‘I have to recover quickly’, no?

’

No, no, Bianca-chan, you’ll tell me a lot of things that I want to know.

A hero who can use the power of water to heal…… Which reminds me, I remember someone saying that the demons of Atra used that power too.

And 14 years ago? Surely, that means that the timeline has gotten screwed up.
Even if you crossed a dimension, as long as you were a ‘soul’ like in Geas’ case, you could only really arrive early or arrive late, and not go back in time.

No, this is no good.
I don’t have enough information yet.

There was the example where Geas became my grandpa, too, but he was an ally.
In the case of an enemy, however, it worried me that I had no information about him at all.

 

Well, it’s no fun anymore, since Kyoji isn’t going to give me any more information, so I escorted Bianca and began walking ahead.

Although, that pretty knight from a little while ago also escorted us.

“Splendid.”

I kept walking as if I hadn’t heard anything.
Because otherwise, I’d have to talk to those people who were trying to talk to me, and I don’t want that.

One of them was the knight that Onzada-kun had viciously beat up a while ago, and how he was looking at me with sparkling eyes, only to divert his gaze when I looked at his face.
…… Is there something you’re really itching to say? And then, there’s the other bunch.

 

“H-hey, you…”

I thought it was the glasses-wearing guy, but it was a girl with strong features.
Looking at the girls who had been abducted from Earth, I didn’t really trust them, but it was preferable to talk to them compared than the criminal ones.

“Oh, is something the matter?”

I turned as I lowered my voice so that only she could hear me as we walked, and although she seemed frightened, she resolved herself to speak.

“You…… weren’t the one to summon us? You didn’t do it, right……?”

“Yep, sorry.
It was a cruel joke.”

As I suppressed my presence while smiling as gently as I could, she looked a little more relieved.

“But, why are things like this?”

“U-uhm,, you were also summoned, were you not?”

As I loosened up the atmosphere, the little girl also spoke to me.

“I am Yurushia.
You are?”

’

“Ah, I’m sorry, my name is Mizuki,”

“I am Touka”

Oh yeah, there was one of them named that.
I’d forgotten that I heard it, though.

“I-I am Daichi.”

“……Futa.”

The mood started to lift a little as they started a conversation.
…… when I forget again, I’ll just get Rinne to teach me.

“And so…… why did you end up trying to imitate that situation?”

Touka and Futa turned towards me with looks of suspicion about that whole act.

“It was a little…… well, it’s because you guys have no sense of danger.”

“…………”

Futa had a hint of regret creep onto his face when he realized what I meant.

“Also, with regard to what Mizuki asked, no, I wasn’t summoned.
I was just on my way back to my world, and merely took advantage of your summoning.”

“That’s…”

“……Can you advise us?”

Mizuki and Touka’s eyes went wide as they looked at me intently.
I didn’t answer them, and merely gave them a vague smile.

…… Sorry, I’m not going to reply you because it’s funnier this way.

“Heey, who so you think you are?”

“We’ll leave the minor talk to later.”

And with that, I put a sock in that conversation.

“Soon, we will be meeting His Majesty the King.
Please do not be careless with your words.
Ask for help from my servants if you feel it is dangerous.”

As I said so to the four of them, they turned towards my attendants and swallowed hard.

 

They’re properly steeling themselves.
Because after this the real main event for today.

If things broke down…… it might just be the end of this country today.
