Genkai Level 1 kara no Nariagari: Saijaku Level no Ore ga Isekai Saikyou ni Naru made

Hmmm........the Abyss.....

I told Meku what happened.

Meku thought about it for a minute.

I'm sorry, I have no idea.

Okay.

Maybe he's some kind of demon.

The Devil? You mean like that Greater Demon guy?

Yes, they do. The price they pay for their power is their soul or part of their body. You should know better than to think that they lend you their power for nothing.

I had a feeling that I would have to pay a high price sooner or later.

I have a feeling that I will have to pay a high price for this. It may lead to an irreversible change. It's a good thing nothing has happened yet.

Meku gave me some advice.

Well, as long as this imprint is engraved on me, it means that I'm borrowing power from him.

Should I not take it even if he says something like "I'll increase the power of this imprint any further"?

...

I'll have to get a little stronger too, to never be in that situation.

"So, if you don't mind me asking, what skills did you get when you absorbed that Greater Demon?

Hmm? [Dark Blast] and [Release], but so what?

'Oh, you've acquired a [release]! I don't know much about this skill, but he said it's a skill that frees you from the restrictions of your power. I thought that if I applied this skill to me, I might be released from the curse for a certain amount of time. Curses are also constraints.

'Well but can you call this on someone else?

I don't know. Try me anyway.

What should I do even if I'm told to try it?

In the meantime, should I just use [Release (Release)] while reminding myself to take on Meku?

I tried it.

Oh!

Meku's body suddenly started to glow. Startled, I scream.

The light gets stronger still, and I can't keep my eyes open. I close my eyes and block out the light with the palm of my hand.

A few seconds pass, the light fades and I open my eyes.

Then I see an unfamiliar beauty in front of me.

She has golden hair and a face so beautiful it's mesmerizing.

She has an excellent style and is as tall as I am as a man.

She is wearing a beautiful green dress.

Her ears are tongued, so she is an elf.

She appears in the room out of nowhere, which confuses me.

After about five seconds.

Are you Meku...?

If I thought about it calmly, it could be none other than Meku. He just showed up out of the blue and I didn't know what was going on.

"....you're back...?

Returning to his original form, Mek checked his hands and body.

'Oh! I'm back! That's a body I've missed!

I was delighted.
