Part 1
Demon eyes.
Normally you'd be pretty surprised if you suddenly received sothing like this.
Why was the Demon Emperor in that sort of place and why was I given sothing like this?
It was such an opportunistic developnt that my mind didn't have ti to catch up.
However, I was moving according to a vision from God.
It should an that this sort of developnt went just as he planned.
When I think that, I want to gouge it out right now and crush it.
It seems like it would hurt and I'm scared so I won't do it.
For the ti being on my way back I cursed my own naivety.
I see all the people in the town, walking down the road in doubles.
I've bumped into a number of people after making mistakes of not being able to tell which one was real.
Seeing doubles both when being blad and when earnestly apologizing.
As well as seeing doubles in fights.
I won the fights, but they are aningless conflict.
I want to avoid as many such fights to the best of my ability.
I have no option but to urgently try and master the use of this as soon as possible.
In other words, if I don't learn to use it, we can't continue with our journey.
Part 2
I returned to the inn.
I t the Great Demon Emperor!
After talking about that to the other two they were quite surprised.
"The Great Demon Emperor, huh, to think she had revived."
I think the point that Ruijerd was surprised about was a bit unusual.
"I can't imagine that I was suddenly given demon eyes."
"Granting demon eyes is the Great Demon Emperor's ability."
Great Demon Emperor, Kishirika Kishirisu.
The Demon Emperor of Resurrection.
Another na is Demon Emperor of Demon Eyes.
Her combat capability isn't all that great, but she carries 12 types of demon eyes within her body, and can see through all manners of things.
Among them, the most frightening part, is that she has the ability to change other people's eyes into demon eyes.
Thanks to that, all of Kishirika's subordinates possessed demon eyes, and she had the power to control the demon races.
There were a number of demon races who beca followers of Kishirika just to beco stronger.
"I wonder why she was in this town."
"Well then. I wouldn't be able to understand how a demon king or demon emperor thinks.
Ruijerd shrugged while saying that.
That's right isn't it, you didn't even understand the true intentions of the Demon God you worked for a long ti either.
If I were to say that he would probably get seriously depressed, so I didn't say it out loud.
Eris' eyes were sparkling after hearing the words Great Demon Emperor.
"That's amazing. I want to et her too!"
"Do you want to et her?"
Eris and Kishirika.
I wonder what kind of conversation they would have together.
I'm a bit interested.
Unexpectedly they might get along well together.
"I wonder if she's still in the town?"
"I wonder?"
Unexpectedly, she might be in another back alley, starving again.
There was that sort of tempura joke atmosphere at the ti.
No, that most likely shouldn't be the case.
It felt kind of like she was searching for soone.
Surely, she has already left on a journey.
Being guided by the chanism of so sort of bracelet or sothing.
"As expected, she shouldn't be in this town anymore."
"I see, that's too bad."
While saying that Eris will still probably go wander down so back alleyway tomorrow.
"Since it's that sort of feeling, I'm going to seclude myself. The two of you can feel free to act as you please for the ti being."
The two of them nodded respectively.
Part 3
Learning to control the demon eyes took a week.
Starting from the conclusion, it really wasn't all that difficult.
Controlling the demon eyes using magic power.
It's really similar to using magic with voiceless incantations.
It's sothing I've practiced and refined a number of tis until now.
Creating a path for the magic power.
I was a bit perplexed at first, but after I realized that there were two main points it beca easier.
First is the strength.
It has a feeling similar to an ero ga window.
In the start the strength was at MAX and all manners of things could be seen in doubles.
I thinned this out as much as I possibly could.
If I narrow down the amount of magic power in my eye the future becos thinner and I can see the now.
Since it seems more convenient if it doesn't appear that I have it, I thinned it as much as I could so it doesn't bother , then stopped it there.
Then I just have to maintain this condition.
If I let my focus go even just a bit the strength starts to change.
It took three days until it was stable.
The other one was length or otherwise distance.
The distance into the future that I could see.
After packing magic power into my eye I could adjust it.
The result was the farthest I could see was roughly one second.
Of course, if I pack more magic power into it I can see the future beyond two seconds as well.
I can see it, but it blurs.
I can see two or three blurs.
It ans that the future is always undergoing changes.
Three seconds, four seconds, I can see that far into the future, but when you get to five seconds there are several tens of future possibilities blurring together.
It just ans that there's that many future possibilities.
And then if I try to focus on a point too far into the future, the burden on my brain increases it seems.
Kishirika did say that if you had two demon eyes you would beco an invalid after all.
It could be that the reason why she gives off that sort of feeling, is also an effect of the demon eyes.
In any case, if I want to use them safely it's just one second.
It took another three days to understand that.
Then it took one more day in order to adjust both strength and distance at the sa ti.
In other words one week total.
I succeeded in mastering the foresight eye.
Part 4
Now then, while I was spending my ti putting power into my eye and yelling "Subside, my Divination Eye!".
Eris and Ruijerd were going out sowhere together every day.
Eris was dripping with sweat and Ruijerd was always refreshed but just a little bit sweaty as they returned every day.
The two of them are doing sothing together that makes them sweat.
As well as it being every day!
"Umm, I'd like to ask for reference, but what have you two been up to recently?"
Then Eris said while wiping her sweat with a towel,
"Hn, hnn, it's a secret!"
That's how she responded.
With a truly happy face.
I wonder if they're doing sothing secret in secret.
I wonder if it's a nice shot, hole in one.
I wonder if I have no choice but to sniff Eris' sweat stained cloth.
No, it's not like I'm really worried or anything.
In any case, I'm sure the two of them are just off training sowhere.
Yeah, I see it, Eris is a child that puts in effort in the shadows.
Even when we were in the Fedoa region, on her days off she would frequently just end up training with Ghyslaine.
When I would ask her what she was doing back then, just like this ti she would respond with a "Secret!"
In that case, this ti as well should be the sa.
That night, a 34 year old NEET looking guy was slapping my cheeks while whispering in my ear, "From today onward your second na is [Defeated Dog]" in my dreams.
I think it's probably that Hitogami's doing.
Nothing good cos from that guy.
Part 5
One week later, I reported that I had finished controlling the demon eyes.
Then Ruijerd suggested, "In that case, have a spar with Eris and let's see."
I guess we'll be confirming exactly how useful it is in close combat.
Or else we're going to see the results of her special training.
Seeing both at once is twice as good.
I accepted imdiately.
We moved to the beach.
In front of Ruijerd we faced each other with wooden sticks we picked up around here.
"I wonder if you'll be able to beat even if you've gotten your hands on sothing like demon eyes!"
Today's Eris is brimming with confidence as always.
Surely, she's grasped sothing during this past week.
I want to protect that winning face.
"I'm fine with losing. I just want to try and find out how well I can see in close combat."
We'll go without magic for today.
I'll try fighting with just the demon eyes, seeing one second into the future setting.
"Hmmmn, they're Rudeus-like words, but?"
In the middle of Eris's lines I could see a vision.
If I hadn't had the foresight, I most likely wouldn't have been able to react in ti.
She has a natural disposition when it cos to talent with preemptive attacks.
"Ha?!!"
"Hoi"
I can clearly see through it, so I landed a counter strike on the side of Eris' face.
The next vision.
This is where Eris's strength lies.
It doesn't matter what kind of attack she takes, she doesn't flinch at all and prepares to go in for the next attack.
Since her legs are very steady, most attacks won't even shake her, rather the more damage you do, her voltter of anger increases and the attack strength goes up.
"Ta?!!"
"Here"
I hit her forearm with a strong attack.
Eris dropped her wooden stick.
If it was the usual then I think this would be around where the match is decided.
At the very least, when we trained together with Ghyslaine, it would be at the point where you lost if you dropped your sword.
However, that's not what happened in the visions.
In other words, this is a kind of feint.
Dropping her sword and luring into lowering my guard.
Eris specialty, Boreas Punch.
Intentionally dropping her sword, waiting for an opening, it's the usual human bullet combination.
"??? !!"
"Your feet are unguarded."
I swiped at her legs and caused her to fall.
The fist cut the sky and Eris started to fall to the ground.
However, it doesn't seem she has given up yet.
"Oh?"
I moved my leg back and at the sa ti fell to my knees, then moved on top of Eris and sealed off her movents.
Since she ca to bite at from an impossible posture, Eris' body was twisted.
One of her arms was underneath her and one of her legs was folded up against her butt.
What else can she do from this position?
Just as I was thinking that she started moving about just trying to struggle.
"That's far enough."
The referee raised his voice.
Eris completely relaxed her strength.
I won…
I won.
I won against Eris in close combat for the first ti.
Without magic.
"Complete loss right?"
Eris looked up at with an unusually refreshing face.
I moved my leg away.
Eris slowly stood up and started to brush off the dust.
Pasht, I caught her fist.
Then Eris' face very quickly turned to a bad mood.
"I'm going back!"
Eris said that in a loud voice, just like that with her shoulders trembling she returned to the inn.
I made her angry, huh?
No, that's wrong.
I might have dealt a blow to her self-confidence.
Until now I was an opponent she always easily won against.
Then all of a sudden I got stronger.
Even I would feel jealous.
"Eris is still a child."
Ruijerd saw Eris off and then said that.
"Suitable for her age."
After saying that Ruijerd turned around.
He looked into my eyes and nodded.
"It was a good combination."
"If they had demon eyes, anyone could do that much."
It is also because I trained a bit, but in this world there are many people who have my level of physical ability.
If they were to get their hands on demon eyes, they should be able to do that much as well.
"Demon eyes aren't sothing you can master soon after you're given them."
"Is that the case?"
"Once before, there was a Superd warrior who had demon eyes, he always wore an eye patch. He couldn't control it until he died. Learning to control it in a week, you're the one that's abnormal."
I see.
Right, I see.
I see, I see.
Well, in regards to controlling my magic power I've put quite a bit of effort into it.
I did master it in a week though.
I see, I see, so there was no one who managed to control it as fast as .
Nfufu.
"Could it be, now I could even win against Ruijerd-san?"
"Perhaps if you use magic."
"What about in close combat?"
"Want to give it a try?"
I bought into that invitation.
I'll say it clearly.
I was getting ahead of myself.
"Please take care of ."
Ruijerd placed his spear to the side and prepared himself bare handed.
I wonder if that ans he doesn't need to use tools if the opponent is a stray dog.
"If you want, it's fine if you use magic as well."
"No! Since this is the case with bare hands."
Before I finished speaking I saw a vision.
