Saikyou Mahoushi no Inton Keikaku

Early in the morning, the hotel staying at the Second Magic Academy moved out in a hurry.

Time proceeded slowly and needles to this extent, and outside a fake sun revealed itself in its entirety. Around five o'clock, only idleness and emptiness remained in the conference room.

There was so much controversy but now I can't see who I am alone. Yes, each of those who had already been here had begun to move. To rush back to my country to take what I hear here.

Keep in touch with what you did first. Forming a team of high-ranking magicians from all over the country in a battlefield position. Instructions were given to prepare the departure for Balmes.

However, it is difficult to believe that a single magician will be ready soon, as it is also possible that he is on an outside mission.

Still, I guess it was because they heard of a threat comparable to the catastrophes of the past that rallied the highest forces of war.

Ars first assembles the crew in one place for Letty and her confession, and specifies in the information section in her brain the lineage and specialty magic of each person she hears about.

"Letty, I don't need the power of war this time. More than that, gather about ten magicians of detection, barriers, and behavior inhibition. And thinking about Letty's unit, you'd better leave the trap to Letty. It should be smoother for her to pass my instructions."

Ars had given general instructions in the empty room with Letty.

It is a room on the fifth floor where the crew stays and at one point it is quite spacious to make. It's a little painful but I have to put up with it.

"Roger that, Captain. (...)! The whole crew will be ready. You knew this would happen. The Governor..."

I joke with an externally flavored grin I didn't show at the meeting. Seemed like he still wanted to say something but didn't have any words to follow.

"Dear Ars, it's been a long time since I left the front line..."

Some Lynne wore made-up clothes on this occasion. Because she's also incorporated into the operation now.

"I ask Mr. Lynne to follow me as a detective magician. Do not join the actual battle. Because if you die, you can't study it."

"Ha... yes"

Is the tone that makes you vulnerable to butt blushes a fear of becoming a subject of research rather than anxiety about demons?

Hearing an anxious voice next door, Ars roamed to regret it only once. I wish I hadn't left my home in the army. I never thought I would have a big ass in another country as well as Alpha.

"I mean scouts..."

"Definitely a crusade. It looks like Alpha took it on completely this time."

"Right. That won't take long. Do we have to put a piece on it before other countries intervene?"

Sajjik and Mujer raised natural questions on behalf of the top of the assembled Letty-led troops.

"Dear Ars, may I ask what your goal is for this crusade? I mean a few elite this time..."

"It's an honor to dive into battle with Master Ars, but it leaves me wondering if the most powerful Master Ars needs to come out."

Ars nodded at the voice and opened his mouth to explain. Sometimes, of course, it doesn't take much time, talk briefly.

"We don't even have detailed information about demons here. You're right to say that no one knows. That what we know will be comparable to the SS rate. Besides, it's a bad diet."

――――

"Does that mean the return of the catastrophe fifty years ago?

Mujer asks back, not looking good on his face. Even the fierce warriors did not seem to be able to absorb this shock easily.

They've announced to Ichii that it's a crusade, but in fact, they missed the demon known as SS rate [Kronos], which caught up to death with a lot of damage. It was not simply stationary about the fleeing back, but there was no one left to make it stop. The demon that was slashed off one arm flew through the universe and vanished into the sky.

Countries have taken a leap forward in strengthening the training of magicians because they were prepared for a re-raid. It was also at this time that inhumane research was carried out, and then humanity, mostly cooled by not showing up for about ten years, regained its sanity, and those studies were abolished as places to be repelled. Those who joined were subject to punishment.

"That's hard to think about. Kronos on the demon database, the bigger it is, the sooner we figure it out."

Demons also change their shape by absorbing them. That tends to turn into a small one so that by increasing the rate it becomes huge or, conversely, condenses. In that case, the appearance is not as alien as some combination, but tends to take the finished form as an organism.

"I'll be on my way to Balmes soon. We'll all be ready, and we'll be out in half an hour."

If you think a regular salute made you wave the floor, you walk out the door without even making a sound.

I don't have time for long stories. Ning Lo, if you have any questions, it's enough that you're on the move.

The Ars follow at the end.

"What are we going to do about the tournament?

"You're naturally absent. But that's all I've been getting ready for. I'm gonna win."

Letty returned a similar grin to Ars with an invincible grin.

"Speaking of the cost of going, I'll just get everything you can at this time... and Mr. Lynne, don't you still have something to report?

……

There must still be something wrong with that bad girl. I thought Lynne should know that because I guessed she had gathered this information.

Lynne pulls her mouth a little uncomfortably.

"I can't help but hide it over this period. Or has Master Cicernia stopped you?

"... excuse me"

"Okay, Mr. Lynne. Is that not going to affect the crusade in any way?

Ars didn't miss a glimpse for a moment.

"Huh - I get it. I'll ask the Governor later."

Though Cicernia is taking the helm, she is a country… a person who stands above people. That vision only shows us humans, but disclosing all information is the least we can do to carry out our mission in the outside world. Otherwise a magician is like dying to slap his mouth. Whether the food problem improves somewhat or not, it does not first become famine. In other words, it seems that whoever gave the order did not wish to return.

Regardless, sometimes I can't tell a magician everything, but I often issue warnings that I have included. including an apology for those who risk their lives… that is the responsibility of those who give instructions.

This is the only problem that countries are involved in. Though it will soon be obvious, it is the Ars who are currently putting their lives at risk.

"That sounds like trouble. What do you think of our team?"

Stated plainly, the voice does give rise to feelings of anger that boil over.

Letty's anger would also be natural. Maybe even more so if she trusts her men.

"Maybe it was a calculation for the Governor to leak information in anticipation. Either way, I'm glad I found out early."

Around the block of stairs, the three break up. Ars is ready, too. I stopped downstairs because it's the floor where the girls stay.

First, Ars visited Felinera's room.

I thought I might be asleep, but I wasn't lost in chiming if I remembered her personality. As expected, Ferrinella greeted him with a complete removal of drowsiness. I'm in a room, but I feel classy somewhere. Is it because it gets a little cold in the early morning? I weave a thin cape.

Apparently my roommate is asleep.

"Mr. Ars..." turned into a faint look with a bad feeling in the middle.

I just told Ferrinella yesterday what if.

"It was surprisingly quick. Assignment. I'll take care of the rest, Loki as planned. I'm not taking Loki this time."

"Okay. Please be careful. This one will definitely bring back a report of the victory…"

"I'm not worried. I'll let you hear the report when I get back to college."

Leave a subtle moment in Ars' response and Felinera smiles and says, "Yes!" I returned it. I thought I might have blocked the words by being separated at one end, but I decide it seems like a concern.

Next up is Loki's room. Whatever it is you need, Loki needs it.

――――

The door opened faster than Ars chimed. I was honestly surprised to see just another visual.

"Did you notice that?"

"Naturally. We always know what Ars is doing."

That doesn't make Ars honestly happy. Ars pulled his cheeks a little. I don't know where it came from.

"We have an urgent mission in."

"Now, let's move quickly..."

I'm not talking about doing it in front of the door, but I guess Tesfir and Alice are still asleep. I wonder if I should come in because I don't show up. Because I remembered a lot of things they said when I walked into the two rooms in the girls' dorm with Zukazuka before.

However, in terms of priorities, it went well beyond what people would say anyway about sleeping faces.

I don't have time to talk long but I didn't think Loki would convince me just to stand talked. It's important to be heard out loud.

"That's it here. We're going in first."

Nodding, entering the room as prompted by a step off Loki.

It was just scattered inside. All of that would be Tesfir stuff.

In the three beds the two of them were sleeping unnoticed. Alice has her face turned to the side and buried half of it in her pillow. My hair is hanging and I don't even know my expression.

And Tesfir still didn't live up to his expectations. I just pay for the thin duvet with my feet and hang it around my hips to the point of my apologies. Not that it doesn't look like it either, but the sleeping minister doesn't seem good. Crimson hair is scattered around like a spider's nest.

Well, I guess it's just better without snoring (snoring), but as a nobleman, he must fail.

Ars sat back in his chair, careless of his footsteps.

"This is a more troublesome assignment than I expected, but with Letty there's no problem. I mean, yeah. Loki... you're missing. I want you in the tournament instead of me."

…………

The response took time. The rubbing sound of his teeth rang from the back of his well-shaped lips, which were firmly pulled together.

(Also Mandate, Mandate, Mandate)

Loki expected me to see the real price at this tournament. But that doesn't matter now. Even at a time like this, I felt an outrage overflowing from within that I couldn't help but flatten down the mission.

The impudence of not being able to accompany them again so as to chase them begins to be harsh.

"Again...?

A weak tone that squeaks from a slightly open mouth.

I can also understand what Loki is trying to say. It doesn't make sense as a partner not to take you on an outside mission.

"This time it's a division of roles. Mission and victory, the only way to complete both is to split. Besides, the mission is more difficult than expected. It's true you're loaded."

The spicy words had too much power to make Loki aware of his lack of power.

In Loki, there was a mountain of words to just say back, but none of them are just one-sided to spit out emotions and are not fit for reason.

(Then it can be about a wall. Even at the expense of this self......)

――――

Als didn't know what he was thinking out of his anxiety at Loki, who seeped out only signs, but slapped the chop gently into his brain, saying he should interrupt one-sided thinking.

"I admit Loki's efforts, but this time the demons are not good against each other......... but you are. The range of detection seems to be gradually growing... and if I win the tournament and accomplish this mission, I promise I won't say anything about my company in the future."

"-! Ho, is that true!!

Something... a bud with a big wheel blossomed in an instant. Loki, with her eyes open, looks all the way closer to Ars. They gaze at each other as if to reveal the truth behind their eyes.

Ars looked back with the thought of being able to shoot at her strong, light emitting glance under her long lashes.

"You're not lying, are you? Later, I guess."

"Ah, ah. I know. I don't have two words."

Absolutely. Absolutely.

"I swear, I won't lie, and I won't make the right excuse. But it's not easy. He's going to do it there, too."

"I understand. It's not easy... but you can't beat me"

He's faceless and doesn't live with any emotions, but there he seems to be visionary of a definite victory. No, maybe I'm ready.

"Okay, but don't cross the line."

Don't contradict Als' advice like he did before. that, but Loki turned away like she was in a bad mood.

"Things were different then. And... you don't have to rely on contraindications anymore."

Ars loosens his cheeks without pursuing an invincible statement to include.

At that time, I didn't care about the volume of voice at some point, but for "what?" I heard it coming from the bed.

That's just as Tesfir tries to wake up rubbing her eyes, and Alice is blinking her eyes to see if she got out of her neighbor's reaction, too, and chewing up the aberration.

"Then don't worry. I don't have time for this either, so it's time to go."

"Yes! Be careful. I'm sure you won't, but you must come back."

"Not in case. It should take three days at the earliest. I asked for you."

"I'll take care of it. Nothing to worry about."

Loki, who dropped Ars off in front of the door, made his fist in front of his chest and inverted it.

I don't have the choice of going to bed again. Shall I sharpen the knife, or should I even stand in an operation? When I sit pompous in bed thinking about that, I decide I should do both.

"Loki, why is Al here? And while you're asleep, no, at least wake me up."

"I was losing it. That's true, too. It was a poison to the eyes to drown in such saliva."

"Eh! Shh!

Tesfir rubbing with clutter and sleeves.

Alice had a blurry view of such an exchange. It would still be like dreaming. My head flutters to the right and to the left.

"Loki. Why did Al come so early?

"I left it to him because he was missing the tournament because he had a sudden assignment... naturally (...)"

"That's tough on him, too. I can't believe I'm on a mission until now... but if you asked me to, I can't help it, so why don't I just take my skin off?"

"I am the only one (...) who has been asked to… of…"

Haven't you heard Tesfir, get momentum and get up on the bed.

"Then would you even practice in the morning and be ready!

"Shall I help you, too?

"Please, Alice."

"Probably, but since Master Ars is missing, I was wondering if Mr. Alice would be in that frame... I mean, you two are the opponents of the first war"

"Heh!?

That's what Loki told me with people's bad laughter.

♢ ♢ ♢

Behind the hotel, a group of fewer than forty people were aligned there in black-crushed coats.

That is a sight of unusual urgency, but the faces of the black-clad populations of the day don't look so nervous. On the contrary, gently untie the body with a careless face.

It varies from turning the ankle to turning the wrist.

But there the captain of this squad showed up, and the fact that he also saw his original leader gave him an undisturbed salute.

Ars receives the coat handed to Letty as "Ar-kun's".

Even if it's a coat, it's second to none in this case. Coats that provide a variety of effects, such as reinforcing fibers, are used as protective equipment against magic.

Does this vary from country to country, and is it unique to Alpha to focus on ease of movement such as coats? Hulkapdia and others wear knight-like armor, so the national pattern emerges. Sometimes countries with financial disadvantages such as Balmes have their own protective equipment, and there is a difference in the quality of magicians.

Therefore, it is also said that the number of magicians in Balmes is low in terms of the overall percentage because they cannot have all these protective equipment to protect themselves. In other words, there is a high rate of magician mortality on external missions while also increasing the supply of magicians.

"Does coming all the way out here to drop you off mean you can ask me anything?

Ars asks Cicernia and Beric, who came to drop him off.

Bellick rubbed his jaw on his face only rarely.

"Ars, there's a visaist over there, so I need you to pick up the ops and information when you get there."

"And this is a temporary delegation of command from Lord Hortal."

Ars receives the letter, which must be in a box with a packed glossy paint, and sneaks it into his nostalgia.

"I'll ask you about Lynne, too."

"Of course I know"

I took it on, Ars, but I have the feeling that it would be.

When he spat out loud to be unaware of the sigh, Bellick whispered to him not to hear it with his hands.

"I'm sorry. They say there's a deposit near the demon."

"- -!! What the hell?"

"Probably, but I hear it's a misrill"

Ars roars so much.

A surprising sisernian gaze can be showered at the remote Beric, but the person spends his time in a cool face from the age. but even during the year, I only had a bad feeling about Ars' inclusiveness and laughter.

"Then it's time to go. I'll take care of this job. More importantly, Governor, I'm sure you haven't forgotten, but don't forget the old books and credit exemptions. And for the time being, spare me the task of this hand."

"I know. You be careful, too."

The trooper who was listening to this story told me that he was a student on the line of credit.

Surprise cannot be hidden among the many who wrap their tongues around Ars' accomplishments as a single and are in awe. I tend to think it's an anomaly because I'm a student at that, but they can't be optimistic knowing how harsh the assignment is. That's why the ranking of first place means a lot.

There can be no one else but Letty and Ars they can trust with their lives. I felt unwavering confident even being left behind by a bunch of demons whose legs would clasp.

Lower your eyes gently. Ars turns to the aligning crew.

And Ars slowly raised one hand and raised his voice, "Go."

Never a loud and hectic voice, but no one misses hearing, and the crew runs away toward Balmes like a wind to scatter the spider child.

He seemed to have disappeared because he was such a gathering of powerful men.

When Ars stopped the coat in his hand with his feather-woven neck, he disappeared shortly after being made to blink.

"You're really going to run away"

Lynne supplements the sisernia on the ragged face.

"A magician like them would be faster than diving through any number of transfer gates."

"This is Iberis close to Balmes, so is the arrival something like noon? I'm talking about Ars, so I guess I'll be leaving tomorrow for a crusade."

Bellick makes predictions and switches when he's going to be busy.

(Klama first)

There was information that we were considering a request to Klama in the words of Gagarid, the Governor of Balmes. No confirmation has been obtained, but assuming the worst, it is possible to meet the Ars, who will have to be eliminated soon.

"We'll be on our way to Balmes soon"

I give orders to the magician who was protecting me from screaming.

Cicernia knew she was useless where she had been, so she was later heartbroken by the continuation of unilateral negotiations with the remaining Führer Balmes.

And he said, "Hmm?" and raised his voice.

"Lynne, can you sell oil here?

"Ah! Excuse me. Immediately..."

After a blinking bow, Lynne, who weaved her jacket, also chased her at a fierce speed.

Lynne's AWR, which is about her height, is a bow and arrow. I'm not dressed to run with a lowered arrow barrel in my hips, but I guess that's worrying too. This squire is also a high-ranking detective magician.

She's not that good of a fighter, but her physical abilities built up in the outside world outweigh those of a regular person.

Early in the morning, when silence descended, Alpha's proud supreme force set out to take charge of the crusade of demons that appeared on the outskirts of Balmes and in the outside world.
