Chapter 331 Charge and Interrogate

 

We decided to go our separate ways and sent the girls to another room. We refer to me, Nell, and Lilyvia, who’s unusually awake. The air around them is somehow muddy, no, I’m sure they are angry about something. Chinatsu seemed to have sensed the danger, and even asked me for help. My prediction is definitely on the mark.

 

「…… Hey, what are you angry about?」

「I was disturbed (when I got a great opportunity to demonstrate my dignity as a master)!」

「I was disturbed (when I got a great opportunity to relax after a long day of acting)!」

「Seriously, what…?」

 

It seems that they are really angry that the important subjects were missing from their words. I guess it’s better to just stay silent and follow them. If I carelessly talk about it, the target might change to me. Well, the destination is most likely Zex or Alezel’s place. They are the only people in Al Nova who can make these two angry this much.

The two were walking while making a loud sound of footsteps, and I was following them from behind while making a humble sound of footsteps. After a while, we arrived at a place that’s marked as a monitor room. Nell reached here by searching the presence, so there’s no way that she got the wrong place.

 

「Is this the place?」

「That’s right! This is the place!」

「Y-You’re so confident, huh…. Lily, what about you?」

「I was acting as the best detective in the world, so there’s no doubt! The culprits are here!」

 

They are so eager, huh. Lily even used her acting with her own will even though it’s exhausting. I can feel their tremendous fighting spirit.

 

「「DIEEEE!!」」

 

The two, who are usually at odds with each other, kicked the door in unison. The power and timing were perfect, and the door was blown off inside.

 

「Whoa!? What’s happening!?」

 

After the slamming sound, Alezel’s voice could be heard from inside. It seems that the door didn’t hit her.

 

「Charge!」

「Roger! Charge!」

 

With Alezel’s voice as the signal, the two charged into the monitor room in unison. It might be because they have common enemies, but they sure cooperated well in a situation like this. Ah, that’s right. I have to go too.

 

「Hey, I’m coming in.」

「Ah, Deris! Help me!」

「Fuhahahaha! The performance is so good that I’m impressed!」

「………」

 

When I entered the monitor room, I saw the rare figures of Awe and Armor Emperor wrapped in special chains. Moreover, Alezel is asking me for help without minding about her appearance. At first, I thought they were fooling around, but it seems that they were caught for real. When Nell and Lily tightened the chains, Alezel drooped her head feebly.

 

「Wait, I’m sure Zex will be okay, but Alezel has low endurance. If you’re going to tie her, go a little easy on her.」

「Why? Black, are you going to order me?」

 

I’m not Black, I’m Deris. This damn Lily, she’s using her acting properly even at a time like this. Before I knew it, she has changed her class into the perfect Lily.

 

「You can’t do it. I understand that you’re angry, but you should sort out the situation first. I’m sure that Alezel and Zex have some reason to make you angry. Let’s confirm that first.」

「…… Depending on the results of that confirmation, I can burn them, right?」

「A very disturbing word came out!? Please forgive me!」

「Well, I’m non-burnable!」

 

With Alezel’s status, she won’t be able to withstand Nell’s flames, so she’s very desperate. As for Zex, should we throw him on the day of non-burnable garbage? Okay, I understand.

 

「Even they are not thoughtless. Well, if they are thoughtless, you can burn them.」

「Hmph…. In consideration of Deris’ honor, I’ll back down for now. Lily, you’re fine with that, right?」

「Hmph, since my subordinate beg me that much, I need to show my tolerance.」

 

Nell and Lily loosened the power that they put into the chain just a little.

 

「D-Deris! I believed in you! I love you!」

 

I don’t need your love, but losing you will be a great loss. If Alezel dies here and it becomes a great blow to the Quitet affiliated stores, I will indirectly suffer from it as someone who regularly uses their stores. Besides, she’s seriously suffering, so I have to stop them.

 

「By the way, why did you get caught so easily, Alezel? With your speed, you shouldn’t be caught so easily even if you’re against Nell, right?」

「Well, you see… my eyes were spinning like crazy that I couldn’t react fast enough….」

「Ha?」

 

Your eyes were spinning? Why?

 

「When we entered the room, her feet were already unsteady, right?」

「Yes, even I could catch her easily.」

「As the speedster of the Great Eight Demons, I’m ashamed….」

 

I saw a swivel chair spinning weakly by Alezel’s side. Don’t tell me, were the two of them spinning the chairs together? Were they spinning so much that Alezel lost her sense of balance? When I checked the bottom of the chair, I saw the words ‘Made in Zex’ on it. In other words, it’s pretty sturdy and hard to break.

 

「As for why my eyes were spinning, I will use my right to remain silent. I won’t say it even to my beloved Deris!」

「I haven’t asked anything yet, and I don’t need your love.」

 

I can guess it from her reaction, but if I question her more than this, it will only develop into a futile conflict. Let’s ignore it and move to the main subject now.

 

「So, why did you get in the way of Chinatsu’s training? You even went out of your way to send Zex’s body.」

「It’s the same for me. Explain why you interrupted Touko’s training. Give me a good reason if you don’t want to die.」

 

Judging from their words, it seems that Zex’s bodies interrupted their disciples’ training. The situation is similar to when I and Haru were cleaning.

 

「Come to think of it, you even lied poorly and sent one when we were cleaning. What was that all about? As for your right to remain silent about this――」

「――We won’t accept it, okay?」

 

A roaring fire was lit on the palm of Nell’s hand. It gets hot just by being next to her. Ah, the spark flew this way!?

 

「Well, I wonder how should I put it. Y’see, it was a test to see if the girls have the qualifications to confront the Great Eight Demons….」

「Qualifications?」

「Alezel-dono, I will explain it. I understand that they want to use the door to another world. But as the condition to use it, we need to measure their abilities. Do you know the rule that you need a recommender from within the Great Eight Demons?」

「That’s new to me. Still, was there a need to do that? Lily is the Great Eight Demons, so can’t she just acknowledge them?」

「That’s a plausible opinion, but there are many detailed rules, such as it mustn’t from someone of the same group.」

 

Hearing Zex’s words, I looked at Lily to confirm it. Then, Lily gave me a wink. It’s useless, she’s tired her acting is collapsing.

 

「I held an event like this to measure whether they meet the conditions. I didn’t tell it beforehand to see if they have the ability to handle any situation!」
