Summoning at Random

".............................. n"

Ling Ji, whose consciousness surfaced, turned his neck to the side with a slight blur.

At the end of his gaze is the sight of an unrecognized room.

The room is spacious and luxurious to see. I can assure you that since Ling Ji came to this world, no, I have never stayed in such a luxurious room, including the original world.

Ling Ji imagined with uncharacteristic thoughts that the suites at the top hotels would look like this yet.

"Where are you, here?

I haven't awakened consciousness yet, and Ling Ji doesn't know where this place is.

In the first place, he doesn't remember sleeping in this room. Nonetheless, why are you in such a room?

Waking her upper body up on the bed and looking around the room, gradually the events before she lost consciousness came back to her brain.

To have Leonora, the current demon king, recognize his strength, so that he fought Miliers, the demonic girl who is the Four Heavens King.

And to have been torched trying to jump over her rolling flame mannequin.

The memory of the pain burned by the Fire came back to life, and Ling Ji gave himself up unexpectedly.

And if I remember that much, I could also understand why I woke up in this room.

"Did you lose..."

Yes, an unmistakable defeat. By the time I had no skin, I lost.

In the end, Miliers couldn't even touch a finger, and he knocked it down unilaterally.

Someone must have treated him and carried him to this room, having lost consciousness because of the damage burned by the flames.

I touch my arms and the like to make sure, but there were no marks of scratches or burns in particular.

"Is that it?"

And so Ling Ji realized that there were others in the room than himself. That's two of us, too.

"Tena? Mr. Orlaine?

Two girls were poking around beside the bed where Ling Ji was lying. I can't see my face, but I could see Ling Ji telling me that was Tena and O'Rain.

Apparently, he was giving me his medical attention when I passed out. I guess I fell asleep tired and intact.

Ling Ji decided to rest quietly so as not to wake the two of them.

As he rested as he was for a while, he heard a concoction knock from the entrance to the room.

"Are you awake?

The voice I heard through the door was one I even heard a while ago during a glance.

"Ah, yes. Go ahead."

"Will you excuse me?"

The door opened with a no, and a beautiful silver-haired woman came into the room. On its shoulder, a raven stops.

With that said, Ling Ji remembered that he could not see the raven of Henri, who should always be with Tena.

"What, you both fell asleep here"

The woman who came into the room - Leonora, the Demon King - blamed Tena and Oraine for sleeping as she slammed to the side of the bed, raising her voice like a shudder. That said, as far as her soft smile is concerned, it would be more right to smile and bitterly smile than to be genuinely frightened.

"I think you were giving me medical attention.

It's pathetic to wake you up, so can you just leave it there? "

"Oh, of course.

Let's just say we talk a little less. "

I honestly nod whether Leonora agreed with Ling Ji's request not to wake the two of us.

She leaned over to the side of the bed with the chair that had been placed in the room and sat there. The raven, resting on his shoulder, moved over the back of the chair and quietly looked down at them.

"Now, do you understand the situation?

Leonora cuts out the story in a small voice to keep Tena and Oraine awake.

Ling Ji answers with a tendency to lean over the meaning caged out there.

"... Yes. I understand I lost."

Ling Ji and the others came all the way to this Demon Royal Castle to challenge the Dark God's trials in the Evil God's Letter - "Let the present Demon King recognize his strength".

I can't go back to the original world without completing the trials of the three pillars that govern this world, but I fell from the beginning.

Quiet despair strikes Ling Ji, wondering if he can only go back to the original world and bury his bones in this world.

"You may be mistaken, but winning or losing is not a big problem in itself.

The Dark God's test is to make me recognize your prowess, not to beat Miliers.

Even if you lose, if you can show me your strength, I'm willing to admit it. "

"Then..."

Seeing hope in the unexpected words of Leonora, Reiji turned to her with her face up.

But Leonora shook her neck sideways, telling her not to be early.

"I told you if I showed you the strength you deserve,

At least I'm not willing to admit it just yesterday's battle. "

"... right"

Ling Ji dropped his shoulder disappointingly at the work of Leonora as if to raise and drop it.

However, as Ling Ji himself had thought earlier, yesterday's match with Miliers was a plethora of losses that could only be described as catastrophic, so there is no objection to that assessment.

"Well, don't let that get you down.

I do have to say, not yet at the moment, but you haven't been in this world that long, have you?

There must be plenty of room to stretch. "

"Oh no..."

Ling Ji swallowed the word "meaningless" just before she put it in her mouth.

Because I could understand that Leonora's words were words that were hung to encourage Ling Ji to be her.

In fact, the phrase that if you are a resident of this world, you have a future would have been encouraging.

However, as Ling Ji, who wants to return to the original world, there is no point unless he is recognized here for his strength and is able to complete the trial. No matter how strong you get in the future, you can't help it.

But Leonora leans her neck strangely to Ling Ji, who showed depression without having to put it in her mouth.

"Hmm? Looks like you're still making some kind of mistake."

"Misunderstood......?

I don't know what Leonora meant by "misunderstanding," and now Ling Ji is more inclined to the neck.

"Oh, you... don't you think it's over now?

"Huh?"

Seeing Ling Ji's face flabbergasted by the words told, Leonora shook her head when she told him to do it.

"Is it still true? So you're so depressed."

"Um... what the hell do you mean?

You couldn't show your strength, so isn't the trial over yet?

"Nothing, no one's ever told me one chance"

"........................... ah"

Indeed, the contents of the trial simply say, "Let the present Demon King recognize his strength," and no one has told him of a chance at one time. Rationally, there should be no problem no matter how many times you try.

I was just assuming that Ling Ji would take it personally and that he couldn't do it anymore with one defeat.

Realizing that fact, Ling Ji accidentally blushes.

"Well, I'd also like to beg your pardon for being extensively challenged.

If you keep losing too many times, that's going to determine your impression. "

"I hope not."

"So, here's the real deal.

As I was saying, I see you still have room to stretch. "

That's it, Leonora stares straight into Reiji's eyes.

The crimson eyes take Ling Ji's gaze and don't let him go.

"As far as yesterday's battle is concerned, the sword never moves badly.

It's not the sword, it's the magic that's missing.

But in the field of magic, there will still be limits in self-study "

"That's right."

Except for randomly activated bypass annoying magic, only light magic can currently be used by Ling Ji. If there are more types of magic that can be used, the range of tactics that can be harvested for that matter also increases.

In fact, there would have been a slightly different development in the fight against Miliers if only he had the means of a powerful ranged attack.

It is also convincing that mastering magic is difficult without a teacher.

If it is a sword, there are parts of it that can be advanced even in self-study to some extent. Of course, you need a good mentor to rise to higher heights.

But when it comes to magic, it's tough if you don't have instruction in the takeaways in the first place.

Ling Ji's magician is Aurain. She is also a powerful user of light magic as a brave man. However, magic is only of auxiliary use for Aurain and is not the kind to be actively used.

Therefore, Ling Ji taught me to be limited.

"Magic is the specialty of the Demon Clan.

If we learn here, we will be able to grow our strengths much more efficiently than we do in our own territory. "

"That's..."

If you say so far, I also found out what Leonora wanted to say to Ling Ji.

"I mean, let me stay here and learn magic?

"That's what I'm talking about"

Ling Ji gives a little thought to Leonora's proposal. Either way, if she doesn't get stronger and acknowledge her strength, there's nowhere to go.

I have no objection to the need for magical enhancement in order to be strong.

It also fits what Henri and Eligor advised me to do when I left the national territory.

"Well, I'm not saying I can't.

If you're not sure you're going to be strong, you can give up and go home. "

"" That's not true!

"Wow!?

"Huh, both of you!?

It was not Ling Ji who responded sharply to Leonora's words like incitement. Tena and Oraine, who were supposed to be sleeping on the side of the bed, woke up and screamed.

Leonora and Ling Ji, who thought they were sleeping, harden to surprise.

Tena and Oraine, who had raised their voices of denial reflexively, looked at the two faces and hacked back at me.

"You were listening pretending you slept... you don't have a good taste"

"Ah, haha..."

"Oh, sorry"

Tena and Oraine are spotted sleeping raccoons and the bats look bad and bitter.

Frightened at all... Leonora asked Reiji again.

"So, that's what these two say... what about you?

Ling Ji told her words, which she told her to show in response to the trust between the two of them, in reverse, straight back.

"I will!

Let me learn here because I will be strong and try again "

Thus, Ling Ji Yihang stayed at Demon King Castle to work out.

"Is this good?

"Kah."
