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

"Somebody bring me a wooden sword!! From here on out, we will have a simulated battle between me and Zeros."

"Yes, then I will."

Yuki is watching me and Zeros fight there.

"... Yes"

"Let the nails be thorough so no one comes here. Like no one in the house would ever see" Ancient Magic ". All right, Kahle, which one?"

"For what the Baron thinks, I just admire you."

My father and my brother were supposed to have a mock fight in front of me.

Preparation is soon over, and Father and Brother are facing each weapon in their hands.

My father holds a thick wooden sword with both hands.

Brother Zeros has one hand against him.

"I will judge victory and defeat!

Standing between them, Teacher Kahle shouted.

"If one of you admits defeat, or if you drop your sword, you lose. May I?"

"Um" "I have no objection. Doctor."

"Okay, here we go!!

"Coming, Father!!

It was Brother Zeros who set me up first.

He begins to crush something like a spell while drawing something like a shape in the air with his fingers.

"'Achieve it! I 'm--"

"Brilliant. Zeros!"

I can't hear Brother Zeros chanting. It's not like any word I've ever heard.

"Activate -" Boosted "!"

Brother Zeros kicks the ground and runs out.

"─ Fast!

Your brother's physical abilities have increased dramatically.

Stuff your time with your father in an instant and wave your sword down with one hand.

Damn.

My father took my brother's sword with a two-handed sword.

No, I haven't been able to take it. They're pushing me.

My father, who is taller than my brother and has about twice the width of his head, is losing power to Brother Zeros.

It was like a joke.

I've never seen magic with power so far in my previous life.

If it's general magic, the limit is to increase your arm strength by some % at most. Yet my brother now has more than a dozen powers and instantaneous powers.

... Scary.

Is this the power of 'ancient magic'?

"It's Zeros. Is that what learning is all about?"

"Yes. 'Ancient Magic' allows you to fight on an equal footing with your father!

"That's a lot!!

My father devours his teeth and pushes back Brother Zeros's sword.

For a moment, my brother backs down, but the timing is right, and I fly back.

Plus Brother Zeros packs his time and waves a wooden sword.

Both strength and speed, Brother Zeros is already up there. Still, what my father is able to fight is probably the difference in his combat experience.

I found out why "Ancient Sorcery" can only be used for "Sanctuary Church" and "Lindbell Sorcery Guild".

That spell, chanted by my brother, had a special pronunciation, putting a regular breath between the sounds. Probably its own language, dedicated to 'ancient magic'.

You can't use 'ancient magic' unless you decipher that one.

I can't do it either.

Such a strange spell, there's no way you can chant it unless you're taught.

"What do you say, Yuki! This is my power! Got a little idea!?

Brother Zeros played the sword his father had waved down and cried out.

"It's a force you can't even understand. With this power, I will be the top magician in the Sorcery Guild. And elevate this Baron Grossaria family to the same status as senior nobles!!

"That's right. Yuki-kun. This is the power of 'ancient magic'. It's so powerful you can't imagine!

When I realized, Teacher Kahle was looking at me.

"The ability to compete on an equal footing with the Baron of War. With this in your hands, Mr. Zeros will rise to heights as a nobleman! Sooner or later, you won't be able to talk to me or Mr. Zeros! You'll see the difference in identity!?

"Right."

I was listening to my teacher Kahel.

My brother's sword, strengthened by Ancient Sorcery, is also amazing, but my father responds only to it.

I can clearly see the fear of turning humans into enemies in this era.

... I've never seen 'Ancient Magic' up close... but it's horrible.

Even if I use all my skills, I don't know if I can win.

I have no idea what magic theory is in the first place. Because earlier, I was so full of remembering your brother's finger movements.

Brother, you wrote such a crest with your fingers.

Here's how it works... add a chant to this...

Doron.

My heart rang.

My hands and feet get hot. Feels like power coming from deep inside your body.

-What is this?

It's like a previous life...... back in Dean-Nosferatu, the "Immortal Mage".

Your health and your energy...?

What is this? What, this power!?

"Sorry! Now excuse me for not feeling well!!

"... Huh? Are you okay? Yuki!?"

Brother Zeros and Father speak up.

But I can't afford to answer that.

Move your legs as hard as you can, away from the three of them. Get out of sight.

Yeah. Let's go to the backyard.

"Wait a minute, Yuki! You must see my power!!

"Don't come after me! Brother Zeros."

Why are you chasing me? And with 'physical strengthening'.

Now... you can't get caught!

I increased my running speed.

"─ Huh? Can't catch up!? Why!?"

Your brother's voice drifts away.

I turn the corner of the mansion and enter the backyard.

And... I kicked the ground as much as I wanted.

─ ─ Zeros viewpoint ─

"Hey!? Yuki!?"

Zeros followed his brother and turned the corner of the building.

Keep going, into the backyard away. But...

"... not here"

My brother Yuki was nowhere to be seen.

"It's a lie. I can't believe I can't catch up with Boosted. I can't believe Yuki's stronger than me. Lies."

"What's up, Mr. Zeros?"

Looking back, there was a tutor Kahle.

"I don't have a yuki. I couldn't catch up with him. Could Yuki have" Ancient Magic "too?

"Impossible."

Teacher Kahle shook her head to the side.

"Using 'ancient magic' requires determined behavior and chanting, plus the operation of in-vivo magic. It's not something you can use against a bastard who hasn't even been taught."

"But!!

"Mr. Zeros has just been able to use 'physical enhancement' too, and I guess the controls didn't work. If I were you, I'd be overwhelmed with Baron Georg."

"… sir"

"Now let's go back to your Baron. Yuki, you've achieved your goal of showing off your power. Now we have to show it to the Baron."

"Yes."

Zeros heads to the front yard of the mansion and walks out.

"But... I feel like I'm no match for Yuki... sometimes... I do"

"Let's talk to me later. That it won't be a problem, such as that bastard. As always, you have the strength."

Zeros and Kakhel walked away with that said.

─ ─ Yuki viewpoint ─

"... was in danger"

From the upstairs room (...), I was overlooking the backyard.

After I ran all the way to the backyard, I jumped straight upstairs. I opened the window and hid in the room.

My 'flying' skills are still incomplete. Normally, you can't fly upstairs.

I was able to jump because 'physical enhancement' was activated.

As I watched Brother Zeros and Father fight, my hands and feet suddenly got hot.

Strength gushed from the back of his body, as if he had returned to the full height of his previous life.

Oh, shit, so I decided to run away.

"I can't believe 'Ancient Magic' is activated just by drawing a crest with blood..."

I saw my palm.

There is a crest drawn in "Magic Blood".

Earlier, when I saw the simulation between my father and Brother Zeros, I painted them unconsciously.

It was a habit in my last life when I was "The Lonely Demon King." Back then, when I had something I wanted to write down right away, I cut my fingertips off and wrote them in blood on my palms and parchment paper.

Lyle said, 'They call me a vampire because I do that,' and I was laughing.

"We need to find out a little more about ancient magic."

After I said that, I saw the occupants of the room.

"So sorry. You surprised me. Martha."

"Is that what you're saying when you jump in dressing"

In the room, my maid Martha was staring at me.

In underwear. Embrace your made-up clothes about to come off.

The chestnut hair I usually tie is fluffy and shaky because I'm dressed.

"Do you have any idea how surprised Martha was when the window suddenly opened?

"... I'm so sorry"

"The moment I found out you were Yuki, I was relieved."

"No, I was wondering if you'd be relieved"

Martha fluttered her cheeks, I said.

She's Martha. I'm 15 years older than I am.

I work away, it's my exclusive maid.

Martha used to come to this mansion in a relationship where her mother worked for the Baron's house. I'm a childhood friend to me and Loomia. Martha's mother is now ill and working by hand at home. Martha works for the Baron's instead as a maid and behavioral apprentice.

"Because Martha's sworn allegiance to Yuki."

Martha looked at me, hiding her body with maid clothes in her hand.

"When my mother had to leave the Baron family, Yuki told the Baron to hire Martha instead. If Yuki hadn't told me that, Martha and my mother would have been lost on the streets by now."

"... that was before Kahle arrived."

Still the Baron's house was just a little looser than it is now.

"And Martha's mother was the only one who could take care of me. On the contrary, Martha's going to take care of me away, and I thought it might be me who's bothering her."

"Yuki has come to visit my mother many times"

"'Cause it's a whim to be in this house all the time, and I, I don't know anybody else."

"Whenever Yuki came to see me, my mother was feeling better."

It's a coincidence.

"Really?"

"Yes, yes."

"Still... Martha's loyalty belongs to Yuki."

Stubborn. Martha.

That's what humans are for.

"Again and again, I don't consider Martha a servant"

"You always say that. To live in this mansion about Martha, my partner."

"That's what I'm talking about"

My brother and the tutor are staring at me.

With Martha, who lives with her sick mother.

It's hard to live in this baron's house.

"Ok...... if Yuki says so"

"In the first place, Martha"

"What is it? Yuki."

"Aren't you surprised I came in through the upstairs window?

"Martha knows how amazing Yuki is"

"Really?"

"Please protect Martha, who used to be a crybaby, well. Witchcraft to get rid of the bugs, or cool my burnt hands. Each time I said, 'Oops. Don't tell me,' cause Martha just has more secrets. I'm not surprised."

"I'm sorry."

"This one also says, 'Oops. Don't tell me,' okay?

"Yeah. Nice to meet you."

"Understood."

"Sorry."

"By the way, Yuki"

"Yeah."

"No way, but what do you think of Martha's change of clothes?"

"I know very well that Martha is beautiful"

"Thank you. Thank you, Martha will wash your hair later."

"I just washed it the other day."

"Meh meh meh."

"... Yes"

"Nice."

"Well, I'll be back in my room. Bring me some tea later."

"Yes, I'll come after you get dressed."

That said Martha bowed her head.

I decided to go back to my room.

A few minutes later.

My father came to the room drinking the tea Martha had brewed for me.

"Yuki, you were asked to stay at the Town Inn while Her Royal Highness was here. Martha and a few others. but it is unacceptable to return to the Mansion until Her Royal Highness leaves the land"

My father said, looking away from me.

"The truth is, you don't have to go that far. I don't even need to be stuck in my room. But... if it were the instruction of a tutor seconded by the" Sorcery Guild... "

"I don't mind. Father."

I'm the one who told you to leave the house. Besides, it's not bad to relax in an inn once in a while.

I just don't have to look at Teacher Kahle's face.

"Martha will follow you, won't she? Then I don't mind."

"... sorry. Yuki."

It was sudden.

My father stretched out his arm and embraced me.

"I am a good man. I guess nobility and the like are not suitable. I'm bored. I didn't know I had to make my real son feel so narrow-shouldered..."

"Father. Martha's watching."

"I didn't see it."

As the words put it, Martha was turning back.

"Please continue. Baron. Yuki."

"... oh my god"

My father hugs me in front of Martha, and it's so lame.

I originally thought it was my job to get rid of children.

This is how he used to give up Lyle and Alice, the crybabies, in his previous life.

But it's not bad to be.

I don't know my parents in my last life.

But now I have my father. My sister Loomia, and my brother Zeros. And Martha.

That's all, maybe I'm glad I'm human.

"Thank you, Father"

"I won't let you be crippled. Let's let the butler's nails make arrangements that way. Martha says hello to Yuki."

"That word is enough. Father."

"I'll take care of Yuki. Baron."

I'm out of my father's arms, thank you. Martha is also bowing her head behind her back.

Until my father left the room, I stayed put.

Because I didn't know what a human child would look like at a time like this.
