Lilia-san, who ca running to my side, stood diagonally in front of and held up her large sword with a smile.
[Hmmm. If I knew this was going to happen, I should have brought Luna or Sieg with .]
[……My, oh my, I didn’t expect that the “White Rose Valkyrie”, the one apparently known as the strongest human to appear here…… Good gracious, things are getting more troubleso.]
[I- If it’s possible, could you not call by that embarrassing nickna……]
Sechs-san clapped in admiration at Lilia-san’s appearance, but he still looked pretty composed…… No, well, I can’t really see his expression because he’s a skeleton, but he seems to be sowhat relaxed.
[……Soone useful has arrived huh. It’s great that you’re here…… White Rose Valkyrie.]
[……E- Errr, should I call you…… God of Disasters?]
[Yeah.]
[It’s nice to et you. I might turn out to be a hindrance, but I’m here to help.]
[If it was just any random mob, they might turn out to be a hindrance, but if it’s you assisting , then that’s a different story…… Can you hold down the First Hero?]
It seems like Lilia-san is more famous than I realized, as even Shea-san seems to think highly of her.
Then, Shea-san lined up next to Lilia-san…… and asked if she could fight Neun-san.
[I’ll try my best……. I never expected that I would be fighting the legendary Hero though……]
[Don’t let your guard down…… She may be a gutless creature, but she’s still a monster who once defeated an Earl-level with a human body.]
[Yes, unfortunately…… It seems like I won’t have the liberty of holding back. It’s been a really long ti…… since I’ve had a serious fight!]
At that mont, a flash of lightning gushed out from Lilia-san’s body. It’s hard to believe, but she was clad in magic power…… not any form of attack magic, but pure magic power.
Seeing Lilia-san’s state, Neun-san held up her Japanese katana without any hesitation and spoke.
[……I’ve heard rumors about such an ability, but this is the first ti I’ve seen it with my own eyes. So this is the…… “High Magic Power Density Constitution” huh.]
[A peculiar constitution with a magical power density tens of tis greater than that of normal people. This increase in magic power makes it visible even without the use of magic…… Neun-dono, you shouldn’t underestimate her even though she’s human. She’s already…… sothing like a “Special Individual of Humanity”.]
[……Well then, First Hero-sama…… I may be young, but please allow to have this fight.]
Saying this, Lilia-san, her body surging with lightning, held up her large sword. In response to this, Neun-san slightly unsheathed her Japanese katana with her thumb.
At the sa ti, Shea-san also prepared her scythe and the Demons around Sechs-san held their weapons in hand.
In the midst of this tense atmosphere that seed to be on the verge of breaking out into an explosive fight…… a familiar voice suddenly rang out.
[Please waiiittt!!!]
[……Eh?]
[……Raz-dono?]
The one who jumped out at that tense mont was Raz-san. She was exerting her small body to shout as loud as possible.
Raz-san moved to the center of the place, in the middle of our group and Neun-san’s, and moved her gaze towards .
[……Kaitokun-san.]
[Raz-san?]
[……Big Sister Vier is in a lot of pain. She’s crying.]
As if she was appealing for sothing, Raz-san stared into my eyes as she spoke.
[Raz is not very smart. However, Raz knows that Big Sister Vier did sothing bad a long ti ago, and that she’s been crying about it for a long ti…… That’s why, that’s why……]
[………………….]
……Is she trying to persuade ? No matter what she said though, I’m not going to back down. It would not only be disrespectful to Shea-san and Lilia-san who are willing to help for this, but most of all, I just can’t accept it.
However, it’s really difficult for to harshly reject the pure and straightforward Raz-san……
As I waited for Raz-san’s next words, she glanced down at the floor for a second…… before she spoke to with renewed determination..
[……Are you trying to save Big Sister Vier, Kaitokun-san?]
[……Eh?]
[Just like how you saved Kuromu-sama…… Big Sister Vier too…… Are you going to give her back her smile?]
[………………….]
It wasn’t persuasion, but a sincere question.
Asking if I’m going to save her precious family, even without using lots of words…… I can understand the weight of her question.
[……I can’t say that I can definitely save her. That’s sothing clear to as an outsider in this matter. However, I know that no matter how long this situation persists, nothing will change.]
[……Kaitokun-san.]
[I won’t say sothing as conceited as I’ll save her…… But I want to see her smile and laugh from the bottom of her heart…… For Dr. Vier’s sake, and for “her” sake……]
[…………………]
[So, I can’t promise anything. However…… I’m going to do my best to achieve that.]
I returned my heartfelt thoughts to Raz-san…… I want “all three of them” to smile……
When Raz-san heard my words, she closed her eyes and thought about sothing…… before a big smile appeared on her lips.
[……Alright. Then, Raz will support Kaitokun-san!]
[Eh? R- Raz-san?]
Support …… Telling such a thing, Raz-san moves over to , holding a small bow in hand, and floats forward to protect .
Just as I realized that this ans that she’s on my side, two more people moved towards us.
[Well, that’s what happened. We’re sorry, Lord Sechs.]
[Sis Raz, we’ll follow you.]
[Acht-kun! Eva-san!]
The blue-horned ogre…… Acht. The silver-furred black wolf…… Eva. Two of my acquaintances…… No, friends also told that they would help us and stood by my side with Raz-san.
[Acht…… Eva……]
[Oi, oi, what’s with that face, Kaito? It’s not like it’s anything strange…… I can’t choose between my friends and family. So, I’m going with you, because choosing your side can hopefully make both sides smile.]
[Well, we aren’t that well-read, so we try not to think too much about complicated stuff like risks. I will just take the side that I want to take. Sorry, Lord Sechs.]
[No, no, it’s not like I didn’t expect that this would happen…… Hohoho, Miyama-dono really is quite frightening.]
Sechs-san smiles, seemingly still quite composed even with the recent developnts, but I wonder if it was just my imagination? As within that expression of his…… I could sohow see happiness.
Dear Mom, Dad———— As we confronted each other over Dr. Vier’s situation, just as it was about to get explosive…… Raz-san forcibly pushed through such an atmosphere and spoke to . Not only Raz-san…… but even Acht and Eva———— It seems like my friends have beco my allies.
