Chapter 03: An Absurd Request like Expected
“No way Are you serious…”
“Yeah The possibility exists”
After Reiji caught Mizuki, she was filled in about the current situation At first she was rather confused too, but not being alone here surely worked in favour With the encourage Still, one had to praise her for having nerves of steel as she didn’t ran away from reality
“Okay, I get it”
“You sure are quick on the uptake”
“You two are quite cal to fall in a panic by s as they come”
Mizuki adopted a clear-cut attitude She had long, black hair and a gentle look with an appearance thatlady Further and unperturbed heart Reiji smiled at her
“You’re strong, Mizuki”
“O- Okay”
She ended up turning bright red fro new, but neither was Reiji’s unconscious enticer skill
A totally inappropriate steamy mood filled the room and Suimei asked Mizuki as if to splash water on it
“So, Mizuki, there’s so I want to ask”
“Eh? Sure”
“If this is like the novel, then next comes…”
“Y- Yeah, some important people of the different world show up Otherwise…”
The first part was like expected the same from the novel, but she added an otherwise, so there must be a different development possible too
Reiji asked about that after a short pause
“Is there so else?”
“In some other novel, the destination, in other words this place, happened to be the castle of the Devil King”
“…Uwah Now that’s harsh”
Yes, in ainst the Devil King at the end of the story after many twists and turns However When this was an unexpected plot like Mizuki had mentioned, then this would be the focal point of the climax, the last battle
That wasn’t all too funny Only a peril for their lives Such a distress was really redundant
Then Reiji asked Mizuki with a calm tone
“If I remember correctly, that novel was the type, where the MC defeated the Devil King at once and triumphantly returned to the county of the different world as a hero, right?”
“Yeah Then another strong foe appeared and later the MC was dragged into a civil war…”
Mizuki started to explain, when Suiic, heard some noise from outside the room
“Listen, you two”
“Mh?”
“I know already Mizuki, so and a lot of them at that”
Apparently Reiji had heard the a siaze towards the origin of the noise, the passage behind the door, and stood protecting in front of Mizuki
She cowered anxiously And Suimei took a stance like Reiji as well
“Now let’s see what shows up…”
“I just hope it will be these important people that summoned us”
“Don’t be stupid If anything, hope for our class ‘fooled ya’”
“…”
Reiji didn’t respond to Suimei’s little joke Whether that was because the footsteps drew closer to the door or he simply believed it was actually better when some important people from the different world showed up, was not apparent Anyway— Who exactly was it that came over and was about to enter the room?
Suilanced to the side, where Reiji stood all tensed up, ready to leap forward at any moment, and Mizuki backed off as to not be a hindrance to him
As for Sui stiff in an unfa over this unpredictable situation His heart as a ician of course
Then he quietly checked his belongings He got here without any preparations, so he carried nothing but s on him It were—
(I gotand the stuff inside A chain accessory, a vial with loves and a bit of the eight key nostrum… To be honest, that’s all not very useful But—)
If so happened, he had to act They all had lived in japan, so Suimei was ed to the underworld He would like to keep the fact that he was a e for his friends’ lives In the worst case, he could just erase their memories, if even he felt sorry about it
The three of them tensed up from their respective worries Then the footsteps finally stopped in front of the door
A short pause that felt like an eternity and cra, the door was opened with a noise of so
“—!”
“Firmus—”
(My Perdurability—)
While Reiji was distracted, Suiic It couldn’t be ruled out that they would attack right away And there was no har prepared
—And then, a group clad in armour appeared in the entry They looked like armed humans A first relief that they weren’t monster, devils or demons
The soldiers warily approached them in an orderly formation
What will happen? Sui way for a little girl with long, blue hair, wearing an elegant white dress, and a wo a robe as white as a polished pearl
And then—
“Eh…?”
“Mh—?”
Both females made a bewildered expression as if they ether and whispered in secret
“White Flahtn’t there be one summoned Hero?”
“Yes, exactly”
“But I see three people here…”
“My guess would be that two of the”
“Oho…”
They hispering, but with his enhanced ears, Suie, he was surprised It was a strangely rhye froe, he understood it
A possible explanation for that was that a language spell was cast on hi How convenient
Hearing the words hero and summoned, Suimei decided it wasn’t necessary anyic Reiji too relaxed his posture
Then Suimei leaned close to them and asked Mizuki
“…They seem surprised… Say, Mizuki, know of any plot like this?”
“Yeah There are stories, where the friends of the su, but…”
Suddenly Mizuki stopped talking and tilted her head to the side What was up with this hesitation?
“…?”
“Mizuki, so you?”
“Uhm, in said plot, the friend of the summoned hero, in our case either Suimei-kun or ainst the hero”
“What the? Why an evil God of all things?”
“I’m not sure either…”
Mizuki was flurried in anxiety To be honest, even Sui an evil God, what kind of bullshi+t was that?
He could only i killed thousands of people and even if you survived it, a dangerous evil avatar that uses up all of your life’s luck, awaited you and forced you to pay a compensation
Sui down his back, whereas Reiji asked Mizuki
“Turns against the hero… Why suddenly fight me?”
“Because either Suimei-kun or I will coht the hero”
“Eh…?”
Reiji turned remarkably pale on her words and was befuddled, so Mizuki quickly denied it
“…O- Of course I’ll never hate you, Reiji-kun I- If anything, I l- l- lo- love…”
As she was eradually became quieter and the end couldn’t be heard anymore, but Reiji’s face colour took a turn for the better and he aardly faced Suimei
“A- And you, Suimei?”
“Nah I wouldn’t have stayed with you for six years if I hated you Just think about it”
“G- Good…”
Hearing their answers, Reiji h of relief now To be honest, there was no way Suiuy
While the three had such an exchange, the girl with the long, blue hair called out to them
“Excuseyour conversation, but do you have a moment?”
“Ah, yes”
When Reiji give his okay, the blue-haired girl elegantly corrected her posture and dropped a curtsey, then she spoke
“Forgiveyou here so suddenly I a of Astel Kingdom: titania Root Astel And this is the person that made efforts to summon you here…”
When Princess titania turned a bit to the side to introduce and beckon her, the person in question, the woman in the white robe stepped forward
“My nae Nice to make your acquaintance”
The woman was called White Flae and her body was indeed surrounded fluently by ic
After their introductions, Reiji stepped forward now and started to name himself politely
“Thank you for your polite introduction My name is Shana Reiji If you are more familiar with family names last, then please call me Reiji Shana These two are i to my left”
Reiji introduced theuards e Felnified behaviour and well- must have been impressed them
Next up, Mizuki came to the front and introduced herself to them
“Nice to meet you My name is Mizuki Anou…”
And lastly, Sui Mizuki
“I’i”
His introduction ended by si more to say, nor was this any situation to run his mouth carelessly
Then titania let her gaze wander over these three and closed her eyes like thinking about so
“Reiji-sama, Mizuki-sama, Suimei-sama it is then The reason we called you here is because we have to ask a favour from… one of you at all costs”
“And that is?”
“Yes, at present the leader of the devils, Devil King Nakshatra threatens the peace of our world and I would like you to exterminate him”
…At the very moment Princess titania uttered this, Suimei, Reiji and Mizuki had all the saures!
Only Suimei additionally placed his hand on his chin and looked up at the ceiling
