Chapter 7 - Rank Fifty-fifth Orobas

"Um, are you Orobas?"

I asked the horse-man summoned in front of me.

"Oh! He's a master, but he's so polite! I'm super impressed with you! And of course, yes to your question! I am Orobas, Master's faithful servant and slave!"

My radar is telling me he must be a crazy person. Wait he's a demon, so he's a crazy demon. It's too strange to be impressed by politeness just by speaking respectfully.

"So, Master! What do you want from me? I can mop the floor, clean the toilet, or do anything you want! Or do you want me to clean your body?　I'm proud of my long tongue, and it's so good that it can remove any kind of dirt if I let it run around..."

Orobas said, and began to stick out his long tongue and wiggle it. Uggh, that's real gross.

"Well, Mr.Orobas can yo......" "Mr. Orobas! Did you just say, Mr. Orobas! Did you just say that? How generous of a Master to call this fool by his name with a Mr. I'm so touched and moved, I can't stop crying! But, Master, there is no need to address me by "Mr." or any other honorific title! Please just call me Orobas! "Um okay, Orobas......."

"Oh! I never thought the Master would listen to my wishes! What a touching moment!"

Orobas then begins to cringe and cry. ....okay, this demon is tiring to be with. Mr.Fulcas said that Orobas is a loyal devil, but I didn't expect him to go this far....... It's a bit of a turnoff.

"So, My Master. What kind of orders will you give me, my master?"

With that, Orobas dropped to one knee and bowed his head.

"Well, ......."

Then I explained to Orobas. I want to be able to use pyrokinesis. In order to do so, it is necessary to summon the 23rd rank Aim. However, since Aim is a bit of a nasty character, Fulcas advised me to summon Orobas first.

"It's true that some demons have the temerity to harm their masters. But don't worry! With me here, I can swear to you that I will not let you hurt your master!"

Orobas made a grand gesture. This is the moment when I felt that although Orobus may have a bit of a difficult personality, he can be trusted to be loyal to his summoner.

"But now I can only summon one demon at a time......."

If I try to summon Aim now, I'll have to evacuate Orobas once. If that happens, I'm defenseless.

"My master, may I offer you a piece of advice?" "Advice? Yes, I'd love to hear it."

If you want to give me advice, I think you can do so without my permission, I thought.

"Then I suggest that you train yourself." "Training......."

Well, it's necessary, isn't it? There's still a lot I don't know about demon summoning.

"All right, let's do some training." "I can't believe the Master agreed to my foolish idea! I'm so impressed!"

His reaction was way too exaggerated.

"But what exactly do I need to do for training?" "My Master, may I have your permission to advise you?" "Well, Orobas. You don't have to ask my permission to give me advice." "Oh, my God! How generous of my master to give me such permission! How generous my master is!"

And then Orobas starts crying again. Oh, now I sensed myself getting a little annoyed.

"So, Orobas, can you give me some advice?" "Yes. I think that repetition is the basis of training." "Repetition......." "The more you do it, the more you'll be able to chant in short bursts, and a person like master will easily be able to use magic without chanting." "I see. Then let's repeat the summoning spell over and over again."

I decided to follow Orobas' advice and practice repeatedly. But now I can only summon one at a time. So in order to repeat the summoning, I need to get Orobas to leave first.

"All right, let's get Orobas out of here first."

"No, Master! Please don't make me leave!" "But I will summon you again soon......." "I still don't want to! I don't want to be separated from my master for even a moment!" "But I want to practice my summoning magic. ......" "Well, then! How about practicing a binding spell? How about practicing some restraint spells! I have no problem with being restrained, in fact, I welcome it!" "I guess I'll practice the restraint spell?"

Well, it's true that I have to practice the restraint spell as well.

"Master! How wonderful of you to grant the wishes of someone like me!"

Orobas again was overjoyed and impressed. Oh yes.

"I have to go to school soon."

I've been kicked out of my house, summoned a demon, and all that, so I forgot that I have to go to school soon or I'll be late. I've been kicked out of my parents' house for this, but I'm not expelled from school, so it won't be a problem if I go to school.

"Oh, school, ......."

Orobas muttered, as if he was interested.

"Orobas, please wait here."

It would be too much trouble to take Orobus to school.

"Ha, so you're ordering me to guard this room. Yes, sir."

He had said earlier that he didn't want to leave Master even for a moment, so I thought maybe he would be selfish and say he would follow me, but he nodded easily. It seems that he just doesn't want to leave.

"Master, I have one request." "Hmm, what?" "If you don't mind, I'd like to ask your permission to materialize. If a suspicious person enters the house while I am guarding it, I can't catch them unless they materialize. Also, if possible, I would like to clean the Master's room while I'm in guarding duty!"

Certainly, it seems that not being able to materialize would be inconvenient in many ways.

"But, I can't let anyone else see Orobas, can't I?"

If someone encountered the horse-man, there would definitely be a huge panic.

"Then don't worry! When I materialize, I'll look like a normal human being!" "Oh, really? Try it." "Yes, sir!"

And with that, Orobas materialized. As soon as he did, he transformed from a horseman into a normal human being. Orobas, in human form, looked rather dandy-like.

"Well, I guess this won't be a problem. Try not to let anyone else see you, okay?" “Yes, I understand. I'll see you later. My Master."

Orobas said, and sent me off.
