Lisa, the beast man with brown cat ears. She seems to know Toa.

Alley outside the city. I put Lisa down on the shady bench there and I healed her. In the meantime Toa watched her worryingly.

"Toa, by the way. We know each other, right? Was that Miss Lisa?

"Yeah. Of my house, maid of honor... I'm a friend, you didn't avoid me, my only friend..."

You didn't avoid me?... Was life in Toa's castle so closed? I hear you're a princess, so I think it's something that's so privileged, but isn't it?

"... right"

When I checked my expression on the side, I sensed guilty feelings from inside Toa. But I don't know what that "sorry" means.

Does Sufilia care about carriage time? Somewhere restless in my mind. He doesn't even seem interested in Lisa.

Isn't that surprising? Maybe Sufilia has a tough people-familiar side to the rest of us.

Whereas Nem is sympathetic. I found out that he was a friend of Toa's, and I could see the look on his face that cared about Toa, anxious.

"Hey Toa? By the way, I don't think this guy's sick."

"Huh? What do you mean..."

"There's no way my healing isn't working, is there? Which means it's not an injury or illness."

I unlocked the magic and peeked into Lisa's body.

When it comes to medicine, naturally, there's nothing to do, but it doesn't look like there's any fever to the extent that it touches my forehead, and it doesn't look like I'm injured. So why was this guy down? I'll think about it, but I can't think of anything.

Then she woke up even though the cure didn't work.

"Ugh... Ugh..."

"Lisa?!

Toa embraced Lisa as she awoke slightly, naturally and in tears, with impending momentum.

"Ugh... T, Toatrica, dear? ……

Then for a moment, I saw her with a painful look, disturbed and away, and still kept an eye on Toa.

"Right?! It's me?! It's Toa?

I could understand the relationship between Toa and Lisa from how it went.

Toa is seriously worried about Lisa, and Lisa sees Toa in front of her, her eyes vain, but with a loose grin as if relieved.

"I'm sorry, Lisa. I was just going to go home..."

"Toa, Dear Trika...... Me"

Then Lisa leaks her words in agony.

While healing, she was completely unresponsive, and for some reason she woke up naturally and noticed Toa.

Lisa's expression doesn't cheer her up. No trauma, but weak. He squeezes his powers and tries to convey something as interrupted as possible.

I looked at Lisa like that and waited for the next word to be uttered.

……

"Huh? What did you just say?

Toa keeps her ears close to Lisa's mouth and tries to hear her whispered voice.

"I'm hungry... I'm free"

"Huh?"

I was stunned. and, at the same time, learned why the healing had shown no effect.

"Tummy?! Lisa, is that what you just said?

"Yes..."

I mean, are you just hungry? For now, the fine reason is as I hear it later, which means that Lisa seemed to have fallen down in the square from hunger enough to interrupt her consciousness.

Apparently healing magic doesn't show any effect on hunger. Good study.

I then bought skewered meat, vegetable sticks, and fruit juice from a stall that I could see at the end of my eyes and nose. They were fed slowly by Toa to Lisa and nursed until her condition recovered while giving her juice.

The health law for me is alcohol, no matter what.

Disinfect your throat with alcohol and wash your stomach. - Though I don't think I can.

As Lisa finishes eating meat and vegetables and her condition has settled somewhat, she takes out the Old Gert, which will fund the founding of the country in the future, and the glass made of glass, and I give it directly to Lisa, who has recovered by the time I can normally speak, a glass of wine.

Lisa then sips the wine in the glass without being alarmed, even though it is her first meeting. Then she liked the flavor and drank it satisfactorily.

Later, just in case, she applied Conditional Anomaly Healing (Effect Heel) and was completely awakened to Lisa's intoxication.

"Lisa, right? I'm just getting settled in, and I'd like you to tell me a little bit, what's your relationship with Toa? Why were you falling down there? Even so, I understand you were hungry."

Then first, Toa answered the question.

"Lisa is one of the maids who serves the castle."

Toa talks to me sorry for some reason while I fix Lisa's robe, which collapses and opens gently. Toa seemed to have an idea of why Lisa was here

"So? Why is that maid in Derms Aldan? I mean, the castle is from the demonic kingdom, right?

I was looking for Toatrica.

I asked Toa, but that's what Lisa whined about.

Toa is not surprised by that answer, and it is guilt in her expression. I don't even have to sense it.

Toa had this emotion at least since she found her. I guess I knew from the start.

"Did you come to bring Toa back? Still, you found yourself in this country a lot, didn't you?

"That's because I saw this article"

Lisa then takes a magazine out of her robe pocket.

"Is it a demonic communication?

That was the latest issue of demonic communication.

"Yes, here is the fact that there has been a war between man and Lord Cassandra the Demon King. And that the cause is Toatrica-like. It was all written down."

"What?"

When I first heard the word, I didn't immediately understand what it meant. First of all, it's because I'm getting frustrated.

When I first met Francesca and Dory, I told you. - If you put my picture on, no face, but forgive me if it comes from the top of the mask. And as for my people, the pictures are stupid, and I need to allow them to be articles.

I turn the page and glance at the diabolical communication, suppressing frustration. And I carefully checked the side about that one.

"Uh, and, uh, there's information on Toa, right? From what I've seen, I don't see it.... or I told them I wouldn't allow it..."

I glance at the article, confused with the inquiry and whining.

Lisa is an animal man, no matter what she thinks, but she is the maid of the demonic kingdom. Will the people of the demonic kingdom also see demonic communications? Magazine of information in the human world if you ask me. It's hard to think that we're out in a demonic country that exists in isolation from the human world. But that's what Mr. Lisa knows, and perhaps the Demons know that Cassandra was killed. The question is, do you even know who killed him? It is clearly described here as "Hero Nito".

"Ah..."

Then it's time. When I opened a certain page, I realized the undisputed fact.

A red and black full face mask that made reference to the face of the dwarf chief - the side where my picture was posted stopped my fingers turning the page.

That would have been taken during the interview. I'd have stabbed those two with a nail if I didn't allow you to put your buddy's figure and information on it... this is Dory.

- That's where Toa was.

"I see, is that what you mean"

That said, that's to the point where you can tell it's a mistake at a glance.

"Nito" posted large in the center of the page. Behind it, Toa's face is shown in a broken out state.

But if it wasn't for Lisa, Toa's friend, you probably wouldn't notice this.

"Ha..."

With an accidental leaking sigh, I show it to Toa. Nem was peering into the picture from behind it.

"Ah... me, right? This?", Toa, to be sure.

"Yes, Master Toatrica. I could tell at a glance."

Lisa then answers with certainty.

"Is that what you mean? There are a few words for“ all, "which means Lisa saw this picture, knew Toa existed, and anticipated that Toa was involved in this matter?

"It's a little different than I expected. I knew from Lucius that Cassandra wanted the next demon king to be Toatrica, and that Cassandra was obsessed with Toatrica. So for me, it's an unquestionable fact, even if it's one out of sight photograph."

"The Lucius..."

"He is the father of Toatrica and the present demon king of Wolzwola, the demonic kingdom."

That's what I've heard before.

The Photographer is Dory and this is his mistake. And one mistake could have been important.

But I've tried to say it's important, but what could possibly be more important than the Demon King coming after Toa?

If it's what you intended, you'll need to give me another piece of advice. But this is obviously a mistake. I think it's a "watch out for me next time" story.

I've been getting too emotional here lately. I slept overnight and realized that. The case of Christoph is a particularly good example of this. There must be some impact on our relationship with Schneizel. That said, I don't regret it.

Except for Dory. This is not as daunting as killing. You shouldn't have a problem judging that.

"I mean... Dory, was it? He ignored Lady Nito's advice and posted pictures without even getting to say no. So you're saying?

Then all of a sudden, it was Sufilia who asked that in an apparently grumpy manner.

"Well, you said you ignored the advice, you're totally out of Toa's body, and, maybe, you're lacking confirmation, right?

What is it? It looks like Suphilia's eyes are resting on it. What are you mad about all this?

"Insufficient confirmation? Well, that's good enough for a solemn reason, isn't it?

"What? Solemn Qing?

"One thing is different, it's possible that Nito's face was even transmitted to the world. Fools who fail to confirm need punishment."

"What punishment?! Is that what you're gonna take care of? Well, Lisa found out about Toa's presence in this photograph, but I'll keep an eye out for her later, through Francesca in a nutshell, and you'll be fine with that, won't you?

"... If that's what Nito says, I won't say anything more. But information is a weapon. It seems to me that Nito, who has become the archdeacon mentor, needs to be more vigilant in the vicinity than ever before. Whatever triviality can be a threat to rest, it needs to be eliminated. It's too late to be important."

Are you in a bad mood today? Or do you care about your carriage time?

"Sufilia? You don't have to worry so much about carriage time. Worst case scenario, you can stay in the dungeon again."

"No...... yes, I understand"

Though I thought you probably would, and I tried to tell you not to worry about it, I'm concerned about Sufilia's poor toothpick. What the hell are you angry about?

"By the way, Mr. Lisa? Lisa's reason for looking for Toa is to bring Toa back to the Devil's Country. So that's good, right?

"Yes, it is..."

"Then just fine, we were going to go to the Devil's Country. Once in a while, there are carriages out from this country that can be reached near the Devil's Country, so I'll suit Lisa's health, but let's leave here today or tomorrow."

"Is it a carriage?

"Yes, if I explain it lightly, I'm going to go via a country called Detorlite. What's the time... Sufilia? How long is that gonna take?

"Around two weeks."

"That's right. So don't worry. Toa will be delivered to the Devil's Country safely, and Lisa will come with us."

And then you're feeling pretty much better, too, and so Lisa gets up and says - "No, you don't have to. Because we travel by space transfer magic to the demonic kingdom," he cuts out.

"Huh? Is it metastatic magic?

I didn't expect the word spatial transfer to come out of the mouth of a woman who was about to die of hunger until earlier. Then why don't you just go back to your country before that happens?

Then Lisa took one, the Black Cane, out of her pocket.

"In my case, metastatic magic can only be used once, thanks to this magic item deposited by Master Lucius. But only once."

Apparently, it's a wand that allows for metastasis.

Then Lisa stared at Toa "for a reason that he had come here" and prefaced herself, she began to explain.

"I didn't get any information, but for now I thought it was just information from the human world, and for once, I was contacted by Master Lucius, an arrowhead who thought about going back to the demonic kingdom. Hundreds of troops led by Master Cassandra have headed to Phishanatica to begin the invasion."

Demon King, will you be contacted immediately? Apparently, Lisa has a lot of trust from the Demon King.

Lisa then went to Phishanatica and learned of Toa's presence from her demonic correspondence, she said. Probably misplaced with us.

Then he learned of Toa's existence, relied on information, and derived this country, not relatively far from Fishanatica.

"Is Lisa the only one you're looking for?

"No, of course, besides me, right? This is a search party formed around me."

Who the hell is this guy? Toa says he's a friend and a maid of honor serving the castle, but it doesn't matter what you think. The other three wouldn't have noticed the magic leaking out of this "Weird Magic Robe," but it emits a difference that doesn't seem to belong to the Beast Man. It's like demonic magic. Isn't this man an animal man?

The Toa Search Team led by Lisa, but they assembled at Fishanatica once. But at that point, the battlefield was a shell.

He then returned the majority to the demonic kingdom, parted with those who remained, and continued his search.

Some went to Greyberg, and Lisa, coincidentally, went here to Darmsaldan.

"And aren't we getting there too soon?

"Right...... I can't really talk about the means of travel. But I acted on an insomnia break. Because of that, embarrassing story, my consciousness flew by the time I arrived here. Totally, it's a pity story. I didn't know you were going to bother Toatrica's hand... I'm sorry for the inconvenience"

"Don't apologize, Lisa? Because I'm the one who put the effort into it. If I hadn't even entered the treasure trove, this would have happened..."

"… we are still investigating the World Mirror. Perhaps we should destroy it."

What are you talking about?

Nevertheless, it's time to start seeing this much atmosphere Toa. I don't know what to say, this is how Toa felt when he lived in the castle.

Still, an insomnia break is a mess of people. But I guess I thought so much about Toa. This person's emotions are hard to sense, which means they are filled with positive emotions.

About the means of travel you said you couldn't talk about, but it's probably metamagic.

For example, the dragon's heart has a metastatic net installed all over the place. Always to be able to rush immediately at any time. I mean, maybe the Devil Nation owns those things, too. Because I know you can't talk, because it involves national defense.

"Then Dear Toatrica, it is time to return to the Devil's Kingdom. Master Lucius is waiting for you. Is it okay to say goodbye to all of you?

"Huh? Goodbye?

Then Lisa says that abruptly. Toa opens her eyes to unexpected words.

"Yes, I can't thank you enough for protecting Master Toatrica so far, but I can't take the people of the human world to the Devil Nation. Plus, this cane is limited to two people."

"Wait a minute, okay? I can't believe it's just me, then I'm not going!

What? All of a sudden the story stinks. Apparently, the Demons still hate humans. Say you appreciate it, but you can't take a human being, right?

But I'm used to these negotiations. Just now, Toa is single-minded that she won't go. Even Lisa should have trouble completing her assignment.

"Mr. Lisa? Can I have a word?

"... Yes, what is it?

I guess my cut out words have some conjecture on them. Lisa was slightly wary.

"As I said earlier, we were originally going to the Devil's Country to deliver Toa. But Toa says he's not going. Is it your main desire to be forced to follow?

"It's... no"

"Then take us with you. If it doesn't work, it's an immediate transfer, and you'll be fine with having it fly outside the Devil's Country. If the Demon King says no, I'll go home. Besides, Nem is a beast, but me and Suphilia are the weakest species - human beings, as you Demons say. To the extent that two people went in by mistake, the Demon King won't be angry either. Upon arrival, follow the instructions. So can't you do me a favor?

important to this person. That's Toa above all else. Toa resists if he tries to force me to take him. Even this guy wouldn't want to hurt Toa. Most importantly, I'm here to help, because I'm a princess.

Then this proposal should not be particularly bad. Besides, we're weak. From this guy, you don't need to be on guard.

But just in case, I'll let Toa and Suphilia know.

"-Tore! Sufilia!

I went through the piercing of my left ear and sent a message to both of them.

'Huh?'

"Yes."

'Don't say my name, for now it's okay with the Political Order. I don't think Lisa realizes I'm a nitwit. "

From now on, Sufilia has been saying "Nito" to me many times. But are the demons oblivious to the human name? Or that I could see Toa, and this guy's just alarmed? There must have been a statement in the demonic correspondence, but this guy's not on my guard. Apart from that, I feel an atmosphere of discrimination specific to the Demons, as I have felt from Kaisel before.

I mean, I guess Lisa doesn't know I'm the "hero nito" who killed Cassandra's army. Is it because of this magic? Apparently, the magic of Lv.8 is geared towards considerable cover-up.

'Ugh, yeah. All right.'

'Okay. Then I will keep my mouth shut'

You won't have to tell Nem. Originally, I only call you "Master".

"Lisa, is that a magic trick? That's common stuff, isn't it?

"Oh, yes..."

- I'm still upset. I was also uncomfortable with the emotional movements when I said earlier, "There are two people in capacity". Probably lying.

There is room for this magic item in a magical sense. In the first place, magic props are objects that use magic with a defined distribution.

For example, if you say in The Wrath of the Virgin, in an attempt to add more magic, only the number of magic balls released increases, and the power of each shot does not change. The distribution of magic cannot improve the quality.

If you were to adapt this reasoning to Lisa's magic props, who said it was "common," Lisa's explanation that the quota was two could be a lie.

Assuming that the number "two" is, for example, certain, true, it may be possible to transfer four people simultaneously if you pour magic twice.

Demonic props - "Trifoul" expert Sufilia said before. "Magic guides do not improve quality. However, the amount increases according to the amount of magic".

Of course, more magic can make it that unstable. It will be necessary to encourage stability in the magic formation. But theoretically, as long as you have magic, you can transfer as many people as you want.

"It's not like I don't know anything about demon guides, and whether they belong to the Demon Nation, they're probably not as different from the human ones. From the look on Lisa's face, I can see that my words are not wrong."

Saying "facial expression" is a lie. I can read emotions clearly.

"Toa's not going without us, is he?

"But the metastasis..."

"I already know it's possible to metastasize. I'll lend you the magic."

"But..."

"Lisa will decide. I'm not saying anything anymore. I'm not asking you to trust me, and I'll leave it to you, no matter what your decision is."

Talking like this reminds me of those days when I preached foolishness to Sabrina and Oswald. It's the worst memory I've ever had.

Lisa was having trouble judging. My emotions are shaking. Perhaps, but you're not choosing what to do. There's no expression, that's a big deal, but the mind doesn't keep much calm.

"... ok. I'll take you all."

Then Lisa decided sooner than she thought. But I feel a little remorse in my heart.

"It's all right, I'll just see Toa's father for a little while, and I'll go home if I can get kicked back"

No matter, I'm not going home in silence.

This persuasion, by the way, has been pointless since the beginning.

The three of them are allowed to have black rings made by dwarves. I mean, I can connect a whirlpool of dungeons to a place with three people, even far away. If Toa goes to the Devil's Country first, then he can go late.

But if you use too much strange magic, as soon as you get to the demon kingdom, it could be war. I don't want to get my hands on the Demons in the first place, and I want to have a friendly relationship with the Demons. It can't be, like, fighting from scratch.

That's why I went out of my way to do such a roundabout.

"Okay, gentlemen. Let's go to the Devil's Kingdom."

Lisa didn't seem convinced until the end.

But still, he didn't object, and he put us in the magic team, saying, "Even if we're human, we're Toa's friends," and he trusted us. I want to believe that.

Then we're wrapped in the light of our metastasis and leaving Darms-Aldan. The Devil's Country is ahead of us. Now we can finally go to the demon kingdom.

By the way, it's Lisa's race... well, we'll see about this later, in person.
