Chapter 300
A lot of things happened today.
I sparred with Koga, got into a fight with Lignus from the Kingdom of Veneral, met Hyde-san from the Kingdom of Nirvarna again, spoke with King Harold, and finally had a mock fight with senpai.
It was truly a day filled with many events.
With only two days remaining until the conference, and with numerous influential figures and representatives from various countries gathering today, it appears that our presence has been perceived as distinctly different.
『Hahahaha! Ahahahahaha!!』
『This is no laughing matter, Karon! Ah, I know it's not you guys' fault, but...!』
...Well, I feel sorry for Leona-san.
The Demon King had asked Karon-san to deliver something like a message, but he didn't tell me what it was.
"..."
And then, night.
After eating dinner and taking a bath in the inn's bath, I changed into my pajamas and sat cross-legged on my bed, casting a weak healing spell around the room.
"Here I go."
Koga, who was in the same room, moved.
As he does so, I sense that the healing magic in the air is being moved by something, pushed aside, and flying toward me.
With my eyes still closed, I grab it.
It is a ball created by Koga's dark magic.
"Oh, you really can sense it."
"Even if it's not a living thing, it seems to be able to react when magic interferes with it or moves it. Well, it can't be expanded much due to the amount of magic power, though. Here, I give it back."
While returning the magic bullet to Koga, I concentrate on manipulating magic once again.
"So how much can you tell?"
"Even if I cover my eyes and ears, I can tell where you are. I can get a general idea of things."
"That's pretty convenient. Well, I can't use that myself, though."
Of course.
Koga and I use completely different types of magic.
If anything, Koga's magic circulation will allow him to use dark magic more smoothly.
"Well, this probably only has limited uses, so it's not that useful."
"But you're the type who would probably find some weird way to use it."
There are weaknesses.
But I think it's a technique that can be used in a variety of ways.
Also, I heard from Nea that my magic manipulation specializes in the inner side, so I tried out a few things.
"And then I added elasticity. I changed the way it's made."
"Hee, how is it?"
I show my palm to Koga and create elasticity with my hand that is not covered by a gauntlet.
Rather than creating it on my palm as usual, I show him how it takes shape as it flows out of my hand.
"Until now, I've been making magic outside my body, just like Kazuki, but from now on, I'm going to try making it inside my body."
"Is there any difference?"
I answer Koga, who tilts his head.
"So I can now fight without relying on my gauntlet."
"I see, that makes it easier to use."
As usual, I can only make one at the moment.
However, I've realized that I've been relying too much on my gauntlet lately, so I'd like to improve that, even if it's just a little at a time.
"If I lost my gauntlet, my options would be greatly reduced. I'd be limited to punching and kicking."
"In your case, isn't that usually enough?"
"I'm not as outrageous as my master, the Commander...!"
"Just how bad is your master?... No, I can tell she's a terrible person just by beating that old man Nero in a fight."
The Commander is also my ideal.
The injustice of silencing everything with that fist.
Her intuition is now at the level of magic.
That's probably why, no matter how many tricks I try, I still don't feel like I can win.
"Haa..."
"What's wrong? Why are you sighing all of a sudden?"
"No... I just suddenly remembered that I might be considered as a potential fiancé for the daughter of the King of Nirvarna."
"Hahaha"
He laughed because it didn't concern him.
... That's right, when I think about it, Nirvarna is a country where ability is everything.
So Koga would be okay too?
After all, Hyde-san gave him a passing grade.
"If you think about it, you like strong people."
"Ou"
"I should have introduced you."
"Why are you trying to casually sacrifice me, oi?"
Seeing Koga become understandably flustered, I laugh fearlessly, seemingly as revenge for his earlier actions.
"You like strong people, right? Don't worry, the princess is a powerful warrior who defeated every possible fiancé in the Nirvarna Kingdom's traditional engagement duel. There's nothing to worry about."
"I'm worried as hell! She's definitely going to be like a gorilla!!"
As expected, I couldn't ignore those words, so I glared at Koga.
"How dare you say such rude things to someone you've never even met before!!"
"M-My bad... No, why should I be apologizing...? Isn't that strange...?"
"Look at me. You call me an ogre, but I'm not an ogre at all, am I?"
"..."
Why were you silent?
Should I have used Rose as an example?
"O-Oi, stop it, don't drag me into your lovers' quarrel..."
"I'm already steadily being cornered by the King of Samarial. I'll leave Nirvarna to you."
"Seriously, what's going on around you...?"
Harold-sama may still be joking, but Lucas-sama is serious.
If it's not just my conceit, then I think he's taken a liking to me.
"Even though she is strong, I have my preferences too!!"
"..."
"Huh...?! No, wait! Don't just stay silent and distance yourself!! That's not it! That was just a figure of speech!!"
Something about that sounded suspicious.
No way, is he going in that direction?
The fact that he's trying so hard to deny it makes it even more suspicious.
"Well, uhm, I'm going to ask if I can switch rooms with Amira-san."
"If you share a room with Inukami for a night, something terrible will happen?!"
"I trust senpai."
"Looking at her usual behavior, where does that trust come from? It's like creating something out of nothing."
That's a harsh thing to say...
Of course, the part about senpai was a joke.
"Jokes aside, seriously, what should I do?"
"You're going to get pushed down one day."
"Mm."
In fact, Lucas-sama seems to be watching for an opportunity to strike.
What does Eva think?
It's good that she is broadening her horizons in the outside world, but I wonder what she thinks now.
"Actually, even the people in high positions would want to recruit you."
"Is that really the case? I think Kazuki is more amazing."
Koga shook his head at my words.
"That guy and Inukami have the title of "Hero," so it's hard to get them in, isn't it? I mean, heroes are symbolic figures in their countries."
"Ah, so Kazuki and Senpai are like the "Heroes of the Lingle Kingdom"."
"Exactly."
Just like Leona-san, the title of hero belongs to the country.
So, even if you were to recruit them, they would still be known as heroes of the Kingdom of Lingle.
"So that's why Nirvarna didn't try to recruit Inukami, right?"
"I see..."
"The title of hero is more troublesome than you think. If they succeed in recruiting her, it might give them a bad image."
It's like when the star player of a team moves to another team.
While his achievements with his former team are the talk of the town, he is criticized by his former fans...
Hmm, this is quite a complicated matter.
"In that respect, you're easy to get."
"Who's easy to get?"
"Well, formally speaking, you're just a regular member of the military. You're the Vice Commander of the Rescue Squad, but you're not the Commander, right? That means you're less important to the country than a Hero, and therefore easier to get."
But that doesn't mean it's easy...
"In addition to having connections with powerful figures in other countries, you have a proven track record of defeating the Demon King. Furthermore, as a healing mage ... you are immune to illness and poisoning. From the perspective of royalty and others who do not require combat skills, such as magic, wouldn't you be a desirable candidate?"
"..."
"In other words, you are the perfect target. No wonder they would go so far as to sacrifice their daughter to get you."
Is that how people saw me?
...Well, I know that Lucas-sama is from a different time period, but...
"Well, it seemed like Nirvarna was simply impressed by your strength."
"As for Nirvarna, I've decided to make Koga the scapegoat..."
"You weren't joking...?"
To be honest, I think he's quite compatible with Nirvana.
At least it didn't seem like he wanted to become king.
"The meeting starts the day after tomorrow. There may be a lot happening tomorrow, so we need to be on our toes."
"Well, I'm sure something is going to happen, but I'm a little curious as to what it is."
The content of the meeting will likely focus heavily on the topic of demons, but at that time, I will need to explain the situation that demons find themselves in.
Well, it seems that I am only required to stand by without speaking, so I just need to pay attention to any unusual occurrences around me.
"I'll practice my magic perception a little more before going to sleep."
"If you do that, your healing magic will affect me, so I'll be able to sleep really well."
Healing aromatherapy, perhaps...?
Doesn't that make it seem like I'm the only one who's tired?
I'm sure Nea and senpai will beg me to do it.

Usato was steadily deepening his friendship with Koga.
He was gradually becoming less and less dependent on Falga's gauntlet...
Usato's position is convenient, which is also important.
