The Demon King Of The Frontier Life, Reincarnated To Become The Strongest Mage ~The Former Demon Kin

"I brought you some tea"

Martha, a maid of honor, placed a teacup in front of Odette.

In the back, Remy is controlling the appearance of a person.

"I'm glad I slept first," Martha said. "You can't be rude to your friends, Yuki," she didn't ask.

Remy is here because he wants to remember everything quickly. Seriously.

This is the reception room for the quarters.

Me and Odette are facing each other across the table.

"Thanks. Sorry I'm late at night...... hmm?

Odette put a teacup around his hand with his neck.

"A lot, you use good tea leaves. Plus, it smells kind of calming."

"It's usually the one I bought at the market."

"It's better than our tea. What store did you buy it from?

Martha will take care of that.

"Tell me about the store?

Odette looked at Martha.

Martha, with a troubled face,

"It's the nearest outdoor store on the market. In cheap tea leaves, I add the herb 'Ludrian leaves' 8-for-2 with Yuki's recommendation. It's night, so say something sedative."

"Thanks, but I'll give it a shot."

Odette nods as convinced.

This, by the way, was developed for sleepless children.

Martha will drown this every time she realizes I left the house at night.

Sleep calmly when you're done with your work, it's like a message.

Martha is still looking at me with strangely gentle eyes.

"Now if you'll excuse me. Take your time, Yuki and Odette."

"Thank you for your patience."

Courtesy of you, Martha and Remy move into a separate room.

From here on out, we're talking about the 'Magic Guild' relationship, so it looks like we decided to take our seats off.

... I'll tell both of you later if I think I need you.

"Did you read the letter? Yuki."

"Oh. Earlier, while I was dressing"

The script from The Sorcery Guild had also reached me.

While Martha was helping me get dressed, I looked through.

"In conclusion, you mean Gaiel-Wolfgang didn't intend to summon the Necromancer bishop"

"Yeah. He was going to interfere with the 'Guardian Selection Exam'. I acknowledge that in person, as well as the Zilvan-Keelus I was with. It's just that what they tried to do was manipulate the undead. That's how they put Yuki and me through."

"But it didn't"

"Yes. There were those who deceived Gaiel-Wolfgang and made him use 'ancient magic' to summon the Necromancer bishop. He taught the magic of connecting the undead with his own spirit."

"If you do that, you're free to manipulate the weak undead."

"That's why he didn't notice the hidden trap."

"The chants and movements of" Ancient Sorcery "included those calling the Bishop of the Necromancer. That's why Gaiel-Wolfgang called him, and he took over his spirit."

There was a troublemaker.

"I wonder if the guy who set the trap was going to revive the 'Church of the Sanctuary' by giving the Necromancer bishop the body of Gayer"

"I don't know."

Odette shrugged her shoulders.

"The location of those who taught Gayer 'ancient magic' is unknown. Although the guard boarded the house, the person disappeared and found out about his name."

"So, what's his name?

"Dorothea-Zamuels. He said he was a drifter's sorcerer who didn't belong to the Sorcery Guild. In the house of the man, there was also a letter from Kahle-Meegen, who was the baron's tutor."

"He was also involved in the teacher Kahle's case..."

"They say the royal family is preparing the arrangements right now. You'll never be involved in magic again. You'll be caught in time."

"... I hope so"

Even though I was reincarnated because of it, I don't like being involved in the 'Church of the Sanctuary' in this day and age.

I've decided to be quiet in this life, pretending to be human.

"Neither Zilvan nor Guyel can join the 'Sorcery Guild' anymore?

"Right. The Count Wolfgang family has closed their doors and offered to be discreet. The Keelus Marquis family... seems to be willing to deceive themselves by increasing their donations to the Magic Guild."

"I hope that's okay... the problem is with the other letter"

I took out my second letter.

"It says I'm going to compete with Iris' sister's escort knight in magic."

"There is."

"You said Odette earlier. Princess Salvia said she looked down at Iris... and if she smashed it, she was the enemy. Could it be you're selling me a fight?

"Until you're selling a fight... no, it's the same."

Odette took a long sigh.

Then, to calm you down, or have a slow cup of tea.

"Her Royal Highness Salvia... is a woman of the same age as Her Highness Iris. She has red hair and feels a little grown up. He is also good at witchcraft and popular with men. They often show their faces to the social community."

"You're a fine princess."

"I'm hostile... because my specialty is wearing Iris."

"... maybe because Iris is better, or something?

In my words, Odette nodded.

Alice's parents have been geniuses since the beginning of "Village of Fira".

Alice, the two children, has been very good at magic and studying since she was a little girl.

Princess Iris is the reincarnation of that Alice...

"I'm no match for studying. Iris is also on top of the magic technique. Moreover, Iris is entrusted with the task of" Magic Guild ". If I had a sister like that, I'd be jealous."

"But I have a position as a royalty, so I can't stand up and fight. So I've been looking down and harassing you, or something?

"... as the daughter of the Duke's family, no comment."

"As Iris's best friend?

"I don't even want to talk about it."

"I'm not talking about letting escort knights fight each other because you can't beat Iris with your abilities..."

"... there are many things in the royal family."

"Is Iris in a place like that... maybe I should let him get away somewhere right now..."

"If you do that all of a sudden, the Baron Glossaria family will be in trouble."

"I'm just kidding."

"... you're really kidding, right?

"... of course"

Naturally. I don't suddenly take Iris.

When you do that, it's up to you to set up an operation that doesn't bother the Baron family properly.

"Goshiju-kun"

I was talking about that, and Dick flew by the window.

"I just got Neil the bat from the princess."

"Neil did?

'Looks like we're in a hurry, I left a message. I'll tell you -'

Dick, who came inside the room, began to speak with a message from Iris.

─ ─ ─ ─ ─ ─ ─ ─ ─ ─ ─ ─ ─ ─ ─ ─ ─ ─ ─ ─

'... sorry. My Road.

Before I knew it, there was talk going on that My Lord and my sister Salvia's escort knight were going to do a sorcery battle.

It's already in His Majesty's ear, Father... and I'm not going to be able to stop it.

So my lord say 'I want to be hungry' and be absent.

I'll take care of the rest. 'Cause I'm used to this.'

─ ─ ─ ─ ─ ─ ─ ─ ─ ─ ─ ─ ─ ─ ─ ─ ─ ─ ─ ─

"That's it."

So Dick finished the conversation.

"All right, all right. Let's try magic warfare."

"Early. What the hell did Mr. Bat say!?

Odette has her eyes round.

I told Odette what Dick said.

"... can I confirm one thing?

Odette, who heard the story, said.

"Iris thinks you're gonna win? Or do you think you're gonna lose?

"I don't think you're worried about winning or losing"

"Then why are you absent, what do you say?

"... I guess that means I won't be impotent"

I don't know because I lost my temper for the village in my last life.

Maybe even now that she's Iris, she still has that trauma.

"I'm being overly mindful. Iris is."

"You were guardians and villagers in your previous life, weren't you? What the hell is a patron saint that worries villagers...?

"You want to hear it?

"No, I'll look forward to it. Enjoy your 'previous life' after I can feel it."

"Not even a very interesting story, though."

"What more do you do with sorcery warfare than that? What am I supposed to do?

"... I wish the nobles were all like Odette"

"What do you suddenly say!?

Odette makes a bright red face.

But I mean this.

If all the nobles in this world were like Odette, there wouldn't have been a 'Sanctuary Church' to leap (Amyaku) or a muddy 'Eight Kings War'.

I really think Iris found a good friend in this day and age.

"Keep up the good work on Iris. Odette."

"That's our line."

"Then I'm sorry, but I want you to tell Iris later from Odette, 'I'll get Odette to cooperate, so you don't have to worry about sorcery warfare. You're more persuasive than I say."

"How much do you trust me...?

"With trust, I want Odette to accompany me in my practice of 'ancient magic'. Instead, I teach Odette efficient magic operations."

"... Huh?

"During the exam, Odette used The Goddess Random (Force J Earth), right? But I didn't do a streak. Isn't that because there wasn't enough magic left?

"Yeah, yeah. Indeed. I used the most powerful sorcery I could use against the Necromancer bishop. Because of that, the magic."

"So I'll teach you how to use it a little more efficiently. I'm used to teaching you how to use magic. Hopefully, Odette could shoot that magic about three times."

"Three times!? I'm glad to hear that..."

Odette, a little, hesitated,

"I get it. I'll be with you because it sounds like fun."

"Thank you. Instead, I'll help you when you need Odette."

"... is that okay?

"Fine."

"Okay. Believe that word."

That said Odette, with a lit face, drank up his tea.

Then I walked her to the next quarters, waved her apart.

Then a few days passed, nothing happened.

Me and Odette continued practicing 'Ancient Sorcery' in the woods near Wangdu.

Iris has been telling us through Neil the bat that he has been banned from going out for some time.

It seems to be a procedure for Iris not to pass on any extra information to me until the appointment ceremony of the escort knight.

Most of all, the West Palace is the only one with closed gates, and the East Palace with Princess Salvia is usually ready to go out.

In the end, the name of the opponent to be appointed Guardian Knight of Princess Salvia, was not known.

I also tried contacting Rhodelia at the 'Grail Chamber of Commerce', but even she said she couldn't grasp the information.

I'm sorry I couldn't help you, and the day after I told her over the bat, she sent me a set of gear for the appointment ceremony.

I always use armor (okay) and a cape, so I said it's ok, but because of this, they tailored me a new one. Your mother?

Dick the Bat flies around the King's Capital at night and builds the Bat Network (here).

The security of the quarters and the West Palace, where Iris is located, was strengthened.

And while we're doing that, time's running out...

Soon, it was the day I was appointed as Iris' escort knight.

─ ─ During the time of the Central Royal Palace -

"The Baron's second son, Yuki-Grossalia. To this!"

At the same time Rin's voice sounded, the door in front of him opened.

Beyond it is a red carpet stretched out to the front of the throne.

It's fuzzy and expensive.

It's not the same old castle I used to live in.

Well, I couldn't possibly use the expensive one because that thing quickly gets my kids running around barefoot and dirty.

"... oh"

"What a splendid figure the Baron family..."

"Wasn't the Grossarian family a country nobleman? How did you get all that gear...?

"And what a knight you are..."

The nobles around me are bothering me.

I'm wearing black metal armor.

This is what Rhodelia from The Grail Chamber of Commerce prepared for me.

She's been in good shape and sending in completely bespoke armor.

Lightweight and easy to move though not magical armor.

The chest is carved in relief with bat wings, and the back cloak is patterned with gold thread.

Besides the red lining makes it so noticeable every time the cape rocks.

Rhodelia said, "I've made it a design worthy of 'My Road', which is in my inheritance," but I don't care what you think, it's too much.

"Baron Grossaria's second son, Yuki-Grossaria, came. I am most grateful to His Highness Iris-Leastia's escort knight for his life."

"... um"

The king sitting on the throne - Iris' father nodded.

Iris stands on the path of the throne, a step low.

Tiara is wearing silver hair with tied hair. The white dress suits you well.

The red-haired girl on the right side of the throne, Princess Salvia?

He looked like he felt strong. I'm tying my hair up just like Iris, but Tiara and her hair decorations are too hectic. Head, isn't it heavy?

"Keep Yuki-Grossalia there."

"Ha."

In response to the voice of the squire, I knelt (kneeled) on the floor.

The fact that Princess Salvia is here means her escort knight is the next one to come in.

Princess Salvia, whom I had just seen, looked like she had won.

Who the hell did you make an escort knight...

"Alek-Keirth, the Marquis! To this!"

"... eh"

It begins to twitch between glances.

Alek-Keirth...... Keirth Marquis House.

You took the Guardian Knight Selection Exam with me, it's Zilvan's family.

Footsteps approach.

I can't see that on my knees.

Iris is blue in front of the throne.

What kind of opponent? Alek-Keelsu.

"The eldest son of the Marquis Keirus, Alek-Keirus, has ascended. I would like to thank His Highness Salvia-Leastia for his life with the Guardian Knight."

Stop next to me, Alek-Keirth takes a breath,

"As a C-class sorcerer of the great 'Sorcery Guild', I hereby promise to work shamelessly in its name!

"... Class C Mage?

─ What, on the same level as our magician DeMetel, who was our examiner?

On the king's signal, Alek-Keirth kneels (knees).

"... my brother seems to have bothered you"

The whispering voice sounded faint.

"I'll show you what a true magician looks like in a sign of apology. Engraved because of my brother, also to erase the loss of the Marquis Keirus family..."

Alek-Keirth, a C-class magician, laughed quietly.
