Chiyu Mahou no Machigatta Tsukaikata ~Senjou wo Kakeru Kaifuku Youin~ Chapter 120

Authors Note: This will be the epilogue of volu 5 .

After safely helping Karon and healing the injuries of Leona-san and Ark-san, we returned to the castle of Mia Rak and took a rest .

Normally, we should report about the situation to Norn-sama, but She learnt about it and has fallen asleep with a relieved smile . . .

Keeping the barrier up for countless nights, we who understood that decided to wait for her to wake up .

Im sorry . After a sense of relief has fallen down, I cant resist the intense drowsiness

We also took that chance to take a rest, so please do not mind it .

Two days later, when we heard the news that Norn-sama had awakened, we were called to the basent where Kurehas fountain with Falga-sama resides .

The two people (?), Norn-sama and Falga-sama, were waiting for us at the fountain .

Thanks to your help, Mia Rak has been saved, and I can only utter words of gratitude for helping Karons life .

I would like to thank you too . Without you, I couldnt stop Karon .

Well, uh Im really glad that we didnt sacrifice anyone!

I shyly answered Norn-sama and Falga-samas genuine gratitude .

Looking back, I think I acted quite crazy as well .

Even in a collapsed state, Karon could definitely kill . I wouldnt be here by now without the help of Leona-san, Ark-san, Amako, and Neah .

We were able to handle this problem without any issues I could never do it alone .

By the way, can the citizens of Mia Rak return?

Yeah . Yesterday I sent the news to the neighbouring country where they were taking care of the people . Theyll be back here in two weeks .

So they can finally return thats good

It would be painful not to be able to go ho for nearly a month .

Norn-sama smiled at with a relief expression, took out a piece of paper from her pocket and showed it to .

It was a familiar letter that we gave her when we visited Mia Rak .

Initially I put the answer to the letter on hold, but now I cant refuse you guys who have done so much for this country . I, Norn Erad Mia Rak, as Queen, shall receive the contents of this letter .

That are you sure about it?

Norn-samas words made feel confused more than joy .

Im happy she received the letter, but I was wondering if it would be easy to receive the letter in the current situation of Mia Rak .

Falga-sama, who was beside Norn-sama, slowly opened his mouth perhaps due to my uncertainty .

The Demon King is a mighty being . You have to unite to confront him . Now that the crisis of Mia Rak is over, there is no reason to decline the letter .

Does Falga-sama think that they should receive the contents of the letter because he knows the strength of the Demon King who once fought against the forr hero?

How strong is the Demon King?

It is certain that he was at least as strong as his predecessor, who had trendous strength .

You dont have to worry . It will take so ti as the ice around the city is lting as Karons power is suppressed, but rest assured that Mia Rak can return to its original vibrant appearance . .

If thats the case

I raised my face to regain my mind, bowed to Norn-sama and Falga-sama and expressed my gratitude for receiving the letter .

It was the third ti after Lukvis and Samaria, but it was still kind of embarrassing .

Behind , Neah was saying, Uwah, that doesnt suit you in the slightest, but Ill put up with it for now and get back at her later .

That is done with the letter, but Usato, I have sothing else to tell you .

What would that be?

About your friend, the armor of the two heroes .

!

Is it about the two armor that Falga-sama will make for Inugami senpai and Kazuki?

As soon as Mia Rak recovers, I shall start working on the armor, but unlike your gauntlet, itll take a considerable amount of ti to make it from scratch .

I understand, Falga-sama, please dont push yourself .

The armor created by Falga-sama is a division of his power .

In other words, every ti he creates an armor, it puts a burden on himself, so I dont want him to overdo it .

Perhaps seeing Norn-samas anxious gaze, Falga-sama distorted the edge of his mouth and smiled .

Huh, dont worry . I wont die just because Ive been weakened . Ill stay here for the rest of the ti . Didnt I say that? Ill watch over your fate with my fragnts . At least I wont die until I see your fate .

Eh, is he really serious about that

What should I do, does it an that Falga-sama is paying attention to my every move? Or is he paying attention to my future actions?

Both are scary .

You can pay attention to Usatos irregular life .

Says the person .

Youre not normal, right? The fox there .

A quarrel is about to occur behind , but Im in trouble because there are too many things that co to my mind in Neahs words .

Rather, it seems that most of the people I have t so far are sowhat unusual .

Or maybe theres still quite a few common sense people such as Kazuki and Ark-san?

Are you guys leaving here today?

Yes . we got a reply from the letter and had a good rest, so we will go to the next destination as soon as we pack up our luggage .

Sorry . I wanted to thank you in various ways

Norn-sama seems to be disappointed at my words .

Although Karons runaway subsided and peace returned to Mia Rak, not everything was restored . They have to rebuild the interior of the city that has been devastated by the disappearance of people .

Even if we stayed longer, it would only be a nuisance .

The next destination is the Beastmans Land, correct?

That is right .

I nodded to Falga-samas words .

The ultimate goal of our journey, why Amako asked for help the beastmans land .

Be careful . Sothing strange is about to happen in that place .

What would that be?

I dont know what the beastn are doing, but one thing I can say is that many beastn still hate the existence of humans . You should be fine, but you should still seek precaution .

Sothing strange?

Is it sothing to do with the mysterious behaviour of the beastn that Norn-sama said?

Its okay if its not a bad thing but for the ti being, I should head there and see .

To help Amakos mother, going to the Beastmans Country was already a decision .

I shall keep that in mind .

Umu

He nodded to my words and opened his beautiful blue eyes .

Usato . The end of your journey around the continent is near, but your adventure in this world is not over yet . In the process, you may suffer and encounter worries, but you tried to save Karon without giving up until the end . Im convinced that if you have that heart, you wont break .

If we went to the Beastmans Country, our journey would end .

After finishing the role of handing over the letter and saving Amakos mother, well return to the kingdom of Lingle .

Falga-sama continued speak regardless of who had thought a little .

There used to be a man who suffered between hope and despair .

Sohow, I think I knew who the man Falga-sama said .

The forr hero who defeated the Demon King; a human who has been betrayed by his people .

I listen to his words silently .

The man who was betrayed by his people and continued to fight while his heart was about to break, had hope for the future instead of the present .

Even if its the worst now, the future is different ? Its too vague

The situation in which the man was placed was so bad that he realized it was correct .

Thats probably right .

The true identity of the curse that was eroding the royal family in Samaria was the souls of those who were once saved by the hero in the battle with the wicked dragon .

The person I helped was killed because of .

Although that alone should be tragic enough, it is not strange that there was sothing worse considering the situation surrounding the forr hero .

In despair, the man entrusted his hope to the future, but for him, that hope is

Falga-sama cut his words and left it stagnating there; sadly closing his eyes .

The next word he said when he opened his eyes was not about the hero, but at .

Usato, believe in the people until the end . No matter how angry or disappointed you may be, never fall into the darkness with hatred .

Okay

I cant imagine having hatred, but lets keep Falga-samas words to heart .

Satisfied with my reply, Falga-sama let out a sigh to relieve his tension and turned his gaze from to Norn-sama .

Um . I have nothing to say . Norn .

Okay, since youre leaving here today, so at the very least let us thank you, Ill give you what you need for your future trip .

Thank you, that would be greatly appreciated .

Food and water are indispensable for traveling .

It seems that were a little far from the country of beastn, so lets get what we can get .

And when you return to the Kingdom of Lingle, Ill arrange a ship . By the ti you co, the ice wouldve lted and I can ship you down the river to bring you closer to the Kingdom of Lingle .

Oh, so its easier to go ho? That would be good, but first we have to get to the Beastmans country .

Even so, it was a really long week .

However, what I learnt here was not in vain . How to fight, the gauntlets made by Falga-sama, and the acquisition of the system enhancent of healing magic .

Besides, Leona-san was able to go on her own path as a hero .

Speaking of which, where is Leona-san?

Norn-sama answered my question as I tilted my head while looking around .

I asked Leona-san to see you off here .

Really?

So shell see off?

Thats good . At least we could see each other off before leaving .

I wanted to thank her again for making aware of what was important as a healer .

Fortunately, I was relieved to have the opportunity, and after sending goodbye to Norn-sama and Falga-sama, I returned to the ground to prepare for the trip .

We were ready to head to the Beastman country, and after bringing Bluerin who was hungry for sleeping in the stable near the castle, we said our goodbyes to the maid who had taken care of us until today, and left the castle .

According to the maid, Leona-san is waiting at the castle gate .

As soon as we saw the castle gate, I noticed that there were two figures on the door inside the gate .

I thought that only Leona-san would co to see off, but is there sobody else?

As I approached while wondering, I could clearly see Leona-san and another person .

Ah

Next to Leona was a man who supported his body with a cane .

The man was familiar . Rather, it was Karon who we just fought a deadly battle the other day .

Oh! You finally co!

Karon, a man who had his hair cut short, turned to us and waved his hand .

Leona-san looked at him and held her forehead and sighed .

Karon, dont overdo it . You just woke up today .

Its okay . I know .

Karon looked at Leona-san with a refreshing atmosphere unlike when he was out of control .

When he turned his eyes to us who arrived at the gate, he had a friendly smile .

As you already know, Im Karon . I was a knight of Mia Rak . Im really sorry for this ti . Also I should thank you, without you, I would destroy my hotown with my own hands .

Well, uh hows your body?

I was flustered when Karon bowed deeply, and I asked him if there was anything wrong with his body .

After all, Im not used to being thanked face-to-face .

Thanks to your healing magic, I wasnt injured badly . I didnt think I would be hit by healing magic . Haha .

Did you rember the whole fight?

While being upset by Karon, who rembers hitting him in the process of helping, check if he has any mory .

He nodded to my question .

Yeah, it was blurry, but I rember . I rember the damage to the people of Mia Tak, the battle with Leona and you who tried to save in a desperate manner .

I didnt do much . Leona-san and my friends saved my life many tis, and I alone wouldnt have been able to save you .

You have friends who can help you even if youre crazy, thats great .

Sohow, he has a pleasant personality .

Now I understand why Leona-san is the ideal knight .

After talking to him, it feels rather pleasing to talk to him .

What will Karon do from now on?

Thats right First of all, I have to atone for my sins . Even though the power of the dragon that sleeps in has run away, it is none other than myself who has put Mia Rak in danger . I will receive the appropriate punishnt after the reconstruction .

The crisis of Mia Rak is gone, but Karon is blaming himself .

Norn-sama and Falga-sama seed to be convenient because of the reason

And I cant be a knight anymore .

Why?

You cant be a knight ?

Karon shows the cane in his hand as he leans his head .

I havent been able to develop my magic . Because of that, I cant walk properly without a cane . Well, it shouldnt be too painful to live normally, but my body beca too fragile to fight as a knight .

Did that temporary awakening put a trendous burden on Karons body ? Even at the stage where the enhancent of Usatos healing cannot be healed

Neah mutters behind .

If I had helped him earlier, I might not have been able to do this . It may be arrogant, but I thought so .

Its not your fault . From the beginning, it was a ridiculous story that a person beca a dragon . After that change, I lost the power to handle magic, thats it . and even without , there are people I can rely on, such as the serious female knight next to .

Dont call with a strange na

Leona-san glared at Karon .

He turned his gaze back here to escape from that gaze and put his hand on my shoulder .

Thats why you dont have to worry . What you did is not wrong .

I see

Alright! That sobbing story is over! Leona . Did you have sothing to say to them?

I was originally entrusted with seeing you all off

Karon took his hand off my shoulder and looked at Leona-san who had fallen back, proceeded in front of us as if to replace her .

Um

Why is it silent ?

Maybe she was nervous in front of us, her line of sight that was looking straight at gradually moved downwards .

Leona-san?

Im sorry! The words I was thinking of disappeared in my head !

Hey Leona . Thats not it .

Ugh, youre so noisy Karon !!

Leona-sans face turns red as she yells at Karon .

I smiled at her and talked to her to dispel her tension .

That spear . It looks great .

Eh !? Is that so?

Yes, its very cool .

A weapon that has been transford into a spear shape by Leona-sans hand .

The coolness is incomparable to my gauntlet, which is too simple .

If my armor was a spear instead of a gauntlet No, dont think about it .

There is only an image of turning around by force .

S-so its cool

Is it not good if its cool for a woman ?

No! Im glad you said that, but it feels kinda complicated

Complicated?

Should I have said it straight that it looked beautiful? But that disgusting phrase that doesnt suit also, I would be embarrassed later .

Leona-san clears her throat .

The tension seed to be released, and she opened her mouth with a bit of shakiness on her tone .

Well, I wanted to talk to you guys at the end .

Nodding to that word, Leona-san looked around us one by one .

When I first t you, I was in a ss . A human like is not a hero, but I have to protect Mia Rak as a hero . A dead end everywhere In that situation, I t you .

I?

It was shocking . Your way of fighting that overturns conventional wisdom, the strength of your heart .

So its a roundabout way of calling him a weirdo !?

Neah, there are tis when you can say good and bad things, okay?

A healing magic bullet was generated on the index finger, and a smile was held on my forehead and nodded .

She appealed to Leona with her teary eyes, Hey, this seems to make you feel at ho !? and smiled .

Looking at you, I had a selfish idea and tried to take care of myself . I didnt want to let you get involved in the fight with Karon and die . Norn-sama and Falga-sama, I didnt want the people who remained in the castle to be hurt either I thought Id defeat Karon in exchange for my own life .

In response to Leona-sans words, Karon behind him put a sad expression on his hand holding his cane .

You were the one who made up your mind and stopped from dying . Ask soone, not just one . I didnt realize that it was that easy, but now its different . Usato, you tell to rely on you . If you cant do it alone, you can rely on soone next to you . If anyone is suffering, you can reach out . Im standing here for you now . Thanks to your words and actions .

Thats

Thats not the case, is what you wanted to say right? Dont try to be humble

Before saying that wasnt the case, Leona-san stabbed with a nail .

Why did you understand my words? Do I have such an easy-to-understand personality?

Leona-san smiled when she saw in silence .

Youre easy to understand .

Wait a minute, am I that easy? Amako, is it that easy that it appears on my face?

Yeah . Youre becoming more and more like a demon .

Its not easy to appear on the face, its a mistake that its suddenly changed .

Rather, I wonder if its really my face .

Amako continued to spit facts at who was soberly shocked .

Hmm, Im kidding, but its easy to understand what Usato is thinking .

Thats right from Amakos point of view

Haha, Usato is very expressive .

A-Ark-san, not you too

I thought I was good at making facial expressions myself, but it seems that it is not so in normal tis .

Sigh, Im lonely not being able to see your interactions, but its ti to say goodbye .

I agree

I nodded at Leona-sans words .

I cant talk here all the ti .

Besides, when I return to the Kingdom of Lingle, I will co here again, so its not a long farewell .

I know youre on a steep road I know that, but I still hope your journey is a success .

Please do your best, Leona-san . How about you, Karon?

Yeah, Im looking forward to seeing you next ti .

We exchanged goodbye words with Leona-san and Karon, and walked out of Mia Rak away from them .

Oh, thats right .

Whats wrong, Usato

I still forgot to tell Leona-san .

I stopped, looked back and saw Leona-san who was seeing off .

Regardless of Leona-san, who seed confused by who suddenly turned to her back, I threw her words that I was thinking of telling her .

Leona-san is also a hero to !

!?

Well then, bye!

Yesterday, I thought about Leona-sans words .

However, without thinking, the answer ca out imdiately . An important friend to In other words, thats what it is .

In her words, Leona looked down to hide her face with her bangs after having been surprised . At the very end, I just wanted to say this, and instead of waiting for her reply, I turned back and started walking .

After all Usato is unaware

Im afraid, but I have to agree as well . Such is his fate .

Why are you two so in sync right now!?

I felt unreasonable at the words of Amako and Neah who beca friends only in such a case, I dropped my shoulders .

The incarnation of the dragon that was rampaging in Mia Rak was cald down, and peace was restored .

After that, the people of Mia Rak are back and waiting for reconstruction .

However, our journey is not over yet . After completing our missions in Lukvis, Samaria, and Mia Rak, the next place we are heading to is a place where it is difficult for humans to set foot the beastn country .

We proceeded to the final destination in order to hand over the letter and to save Amakos mother .
