The Wrong Way to Use Healing Magic

A quiet story of two people in one

By detaching a part of my soul, I was able to merge with the other me --- the personality born from the sword of a brave man.

To be honest, I do not understand how much I have changed from the person I was before.

The only thing I can say is that I have been reborn as Kannagi, a beastman with two personalities.

"......"

Usato fainted while escaping from the ruins.

We immediately carried him out of the ruins and put him to sleep in a room of a hideout in the village.

It was my fault, but we were all mentally and physically tired after this time, so we took turns to watch over him...,

With a big smile on her face, Suzune came forward to take care of Usato, but was immediately rejected by Amako and the others.

I have seen Suzune's strange behavior many times through Kagote, but I was reminded that the real thing is different.

"......It's really, really real."

Usato is laid out on the bed.

I sit down on a chair placed beside him and mutter something like that.

To be honest, I thought I would never be able to look outside again.

I was in despair, thinking that I would have to continue to live as a sealed being, unable to move, with nothing but my soul.

"Thank you, Usato.

I put my hand on his sleeping profile and murmur.

The world I was seeing through him was very different from the one I knew.

A peaceful time without ugly conflicts between humans.

Interaction with good people.

Everything else was dazzling to me, even though the world was still under the threat of the Demon Lord's army.

"......Hisago wanted me to see a peaceful world. ......"

It may be that the purpose is to let me see the future, but I would like it to be that kind of intention, too, if possible.

The time I was in was truly hell.

It was a time when beastmen were treated as pawns to be discarded as a matter of course, and when they were treated as less than human beings or even objects. I spent all my time fighting against the demon king's army, and I had never known what a decent life was.

Of course, I had no regrets because it was the path I had chosen for myself.

But I still dreamed of a peaceful world where no one betrayed me and I could be at peace... when I was fighting together with Hisago.

"......."

I was lost in deep emotion when a voice came from inside me and brought me back to myself.

"You're here!　My evil whispering ......!"

The voice of the other me whispers to me rather often.

As a result of the fusion of our souls, the other me is talking to me like this, but I really don't want this kind of thing to happen to me because of the eyes of people around me.

"Mwah!"

My arm moves of its own accord and reaches for the comforter that's draped over Usato.

You can't do that!　I stop my arm, but the inside of me tries to move as well.

The battle between me and the part of me that is inside me: ......!　

I shake with my arms outstretched, wondering what I am doing.

"Wait, wait, wait!　Let's just talk about it: ......!"

You're a child!　No, I have the mentality of a child!

You inside me is fine, but me outside will be treated like a pervert!

That's not good!

I don't have a strong heart like Suzune, and I can't stand to see such an abomination!

>

"Yes, but ......!　But there is an order to things ......!"

<>

No, no, no!

No, no, no, who's a f*cking fish!

No, before I was sealed off, there were basically only outcasts and a**h*les around me, and I didn't have time for that kind of thing!

<>

At that moment, I suddenly lose the strength to move my hand.

I almost fall down and look at Usato who is sleeping on the bed and notice an unnatural bulge right next to me in the futon.

What is ......?

Tilting his head, he slowly rolls up the comforter and finds...

"Soooo, soooo, heh heh heh."

"......"

<>

There was a black owl, Neah.

She is an owl, but she is lying on her side, sleeping, and her cheeks are twitching.

When did she crawl in here?　At least I'm sure she was sneaking in before I got here. .......

"---I was here."

"What?

A voice from behind me.

I was so startled by the unusual event that I turned around with a strange scream and saw a sleepy-eyed Amako standing at the entrance.

She takes one look at me in surprise, and then moves closer to the sleeping Usato and looks at him for about ten seconds.

"...... okay."

He grabs the sleeping Neah by the eagle.

She looks back at me and lets out a small sigh before turning to leave the room.

Her eyes are piercing.

"Kannagi!"

"What is it?"

Don't do anything rash, okay?

"Yes, yes."

Amako, perhaps satisfied with this, left the room with Nair still in her grasp.

Once again, the room was silent, and I sat in my chair, stunned.

I no longer hear the voice of my inner self.

Maybe Amaco has frightened me and I have withdrawn.

"Let's take care of him seriously: ......"

I don't want to offend Amaco.

Regardless of the difference in our abilities, I quietly took care of him until it was time for me to take over.

A quiet story The change he gave me

The Demon Lord ordered me to go to the ruins with Ciel, the Demon Lord's personal maid, but we ran into Usato and some heroes there.

As the leader of the Legion, I couldn't overlook the situation, but more than anything else, I couldn't do nothing when I had such a good enemy as Usato, so I started a fight... and the situation developed into something even I didn't expect.

Anyway, many things happened.

Well, I was out of the mosquito's way for the most part, and before I knew it, I was skewered with a sword called a katana, and I was in a pinch when I lost my dark magic. ...... but in the end, I managed to get by.

I encountered that demon and it almost took my soul!

"What are you talking about?

I succeeded in escaping from the ruins with the help of the Demon King, and after waking Nono, who had somehow fainted, I was flying in the sky on a flying dragon to return to the Demon King's castle.

The image of the flying dragon still burns in my mind. Brown skin,...... twisted horns,......Ah, that's just the devil,......."

"...... aren't they just demons?　That's it."

Or rather, you are.

Nono dexterously maneuvers the flying dragon while her body trembles.

I heard that while she was waiting for Ciel and me, Nono, who had been spending her free time outside, had encountered Usato, who had assumed the form of a demon.

She fainted from the trauma of the previous battle and the shock of Usato's horns, and she has been inscribed with a new trauma.

During that time, her partner, Hiryu, was always there to protect her.

...... Well, that's too funny.

"I'm convinced ......!　It's not a healing wizard, but a demon who is manipulating humans from behind the scenes under the skin of a human being. ......!　Otherwise, a healing magician would not act in such an insane way. ......!"

What in the world did Usato do to this guy?

I can only imagine, but it must have been something to instill such fear in him.

"And he's after me and Hannah-sama. ......!"

"No, why?"

"What else could you think of coming to such a desolate and blotchy place? ......!"

"What do you say to your birthplace? ......"

As far as I'm concerned, I don't have any good memories either.

The last memory I have of my mother is when she left me in a demon-infested forest.

I don't know whether she is not listening to me or not, but she shakes her head and grips the reins that control the flying dragon tightly.

"I will have to report this to Hannah-sama when I get back!　Report it and leave the rest to Hannah-sama!

"You're not thinking of just running away and targeting Hanna, are you?"

At that moment, the flying dragon shakes greatly, as if to show her agitation.

She clings on to it even though she almost falls off, but as she does so, the wound caused by Kanna-guy's stab wound starts to hurt.

"Oh, no, no, you wouldn't do that!　I'm sure you're a beloved boss, Hannah-sama, so I thought I'd share the information ......!　I would never think of sacrificing you to the devil on my behalf!"

"Okay!　I understand! I understand!　Fly properly!"

Relieved that the flying dragon has stabilized, he puts his hand on the wound where he was stabbed by Kannagi and casts a dark magic spell.

Usato has given me first aid, but I am not completely healed.

He closes the wound with dark magic in combination with recovery magic.

"......If this is the extent of the damage, it should heal soon."

If I were greedy, I would have wanted it to heal a little more.

...... Or, in this case, I should say that Usato did a good job of healing.

I am aware that I am causing trouble for him by my troublesome way of intertwining with him.

Normally, it would have been better to let me die right then and there.

"I guess I owe you one. ......"

It was not a good thing to owe Usato a favor, though it was not a good thing to be unable to handle a surprise attack from the front.

After all, it was fun to fight with him.

...... Well, I don't want him to grab my leg and swing me around, though.

"He's getting stronger!"

First they unleashed their magic, and now they made their magic more elastic.

To tell the truth, I had never thought that magic could be elastic.

And on top of that, they assimilated with Ferrum.

In addition to Ferrum, he assimilated a demon and a beastman with a precognition magic, and strengthened it tremendously.

Even I can't copy that.

I've been fighting alone for so long that I can't even join hands with someone else like that, let alone cooperate with them.

I've been fighting alone for so long that I can't even join hands or cooperate with someone else like that. ...... If I had to say, I'd say that fighting together with Usato this time might be like that for me, but it's meaningless if I'm fighting against Usato.

I want to fight more.

I don't care if I win or lose.

It's always fun to fight with him.

The fear of not knowing what's coming.

The ability to think outside the box.

The things he says and does that even I find unbelievable.

All of it was fun.

---When the battle between humans and demons is over, will there be no more such battles?

Such a thought crosses my mind.

No, before that, I was feeling a kind of loneliness in some part of my heart at the thought of losing the connection with him.

Am I affected by this as well as Ferrum?

I come back to myself with my own thoughts and I can't help but giggle, and before I know it, I notice Nono looking back at me with a disgusted expression on her face.

"Mr. Koga, your face is disgusting, isn't it?　Is it the devil's work?

"......"

"Ah, ah!　Don't grind my head!　Shoo, Shaun!　Help me!"

I was indeed hurt, so I lightly hit him with my fists from both temples.

If Ciel were here, he would give me a cool comment, but I feel lonely without him.
