-Hahaha ... hahaha ... very good, very good ...
In this large cave with only a little sunlight, he laughed madly because it had been a long time since he heard such good news.
-Give them to the "barn".
Standing out from the crowd of students was a blue-haired girl dressed in expensive black Beatil dresses.
This must be the Motoyasu daughter, Rozath thought.
-Ne Diaz, remember the reward you promised me?
-Hum? Oh yeah, I almost forgot, so what do you want to get rewarded for? Gold coins?
-Wh ... I want that girl.
-Hum? Why?
-What should I say ... I want to have some fun.
-Haha, that's cool, you can do whatever you like.
Leading into a room, rather than a small cave, Yumi ran and stood in the corner, preparing to protest against Rozath.
-He, don't worry lady, you will be safe in here.
With just a snap of her finger, the chain tightly binding her hand broke open.
-Why would you help me?
-Don't misunderstand, mi'lady. I just have other plans for you.
He turned away and closed the big door, the only place leading to the outside and left her alone in the dark basement with only a little light from the candle.
I met him again, the half-devil half-pierced me in my dream last time.
-Who are you?
- I am both you and not you.
-What the hell?
Although it was pitch black here, I could tell for sure that he was smiling, a savage smile that made me feel chills down to my bones.
-You are too weak. You need my strength.
-I don't understand what you said, and get the hell out of my head.
-Haha ... that's stubborn, but ... sooner or later ... then you'll see.
-Huh? What do you mean? ASIAN!
As if the ground I had been standing on suddenly disappeared, like that, I fell free in this dark, unknown space.
The scene appeared before my eyes again, Yumi was taken away and I could only stand by.
- Wait ... wait ... stop ... don't go ...
-YUMI !!
-You are awake, Kazuto.
The scene had disappeared, and instead was lying in a hospital bed.
-Yumi where !?
Yes, that's what I care about most right now, will someone save her while I'm fainting? But the result I received was a head shake from my friends. According to Mika, Yumi alone caught the attention of the three black magicians to make time for Mika to escape. Perhaps that's why I felt very little magic power emanating from her back then, so she must have struggled and struggled while fighting them.
I will save Yumi, no matter what.
How many hours had passed since she was locked in here? Is the "other plan" mentioned by that black magician? Should she trust him that it would be safe to stay in here?
No, I need to get out of here, she told herself and immediately used magic to create a lock break with ice. This reminded her of how she used to play games with thieves and knights when she was younger, and at that time she was taught how to use a key breaker in case she needed it.
-Hey, what is this?
-This is a wooden lock break, we often call it Shoakuma.
-Hihi, what's the weird name?
-If it's fine if you don't want to call like that. Now look closely.
He inserted the small iron rod into the lock and slowly turned it around.
-Flash!
The sound of a lock being opened, followed by the lock that fell to the ground.
-Or so! Do it again, do it again! I want to see more.
-Haha, would you like to try it?
-It's OK? Happy!
She opened the door slowly, trying not to make a sound. As expected, there was almost no light around her surroundings, but there was one thing that made her curious. At a corner of the cave, there was a path that seemed to have been made by people, there was a shout of people. Is that a way out, she wondered.
Mixed with the sound of a hoe is the sound of a hoe, a mine is the painful cries of a person.
- Hurry up, woman!
-I'm sorry!
-Hurry up!
-Aaaa!
Appearing before her eyes was a horrific sight, hundreds of people forced to carry, dig hard, and if anyone slowed or collapsed, they would be beaten mercilessly.
-Who let you lie !?
-But I just fell, please forgive me.
-Blog! Get up quickly!
The man was unreasonably whipped on her body, she couldn't stand by.
-Oh ... um ... um ...
From behind, Rozath held his hand and covered her mouth. He had an unusual power that made it impossible for her to resist even though she tried her best.
-Let's quiet, young lady, you'll make me discover.
Pulling Yumi back to the basement, Rozath sighed and created a barrier around her so she could no longer use magic.
-Does the dark magicians, do you guys end up with humanity?
-Humanity? Huh, what a child, that sentence still exists in this world.
-What do you mean?
-Nothing. It's fine if you stay obediently in here for safety, lady.
-Why do you keep calling me "lady" forever? And why do you want me to be safe?
-...
Rozath's shadow disappeared behind the big door, but suddenly he stopped and sighed.
-Because ... it's a promise from an old friend.
-Promise? Why ...?
-Bam!
Once again, she was alone, facing the darkness of this cold basement.
-Where are you going?
Perhaps this is the situation I don't want to get involved with the most. Facing me was the brother of a girl whom I could not save. Perhaps this is also a good opportunity for me to apologize.
-Xi ...
-Are you going to save my sister?
-What ... how do you know?
-Huh ... as expected ...
-Of course?
-... Are you going to find my sister without any information or clues?
-That...
-Well. That's right, but he also wants to play the game "Hero saves the beauties".
-Haha ... sorry.
-At least praising you for choosing the right time, if you go this evening you won't be discovered by your teachers.
-Huh? Really?
To be honest, I just choose to leave a random time frame, who would have thought to be "praised" like this. After the last "confession", even though there was not enough light, I could guess that Rin was sighing in despair.
- "Undetected"?
From the darkness coming out, a burly man with ragged clothes and a few pieces of blood still dried up made Rin and I shiver. But the voice helped me and he realized it was Gaido sensei. After a while of frantic and pleading, he and I also advised the master to the medical room. Because of the black magician's attack, Midoki, the dorm's nurse, had to follow orders to assist in healing the people, so there were only the three of us in the room. After some talk, in a miraculous way, Gaido-sensei accepted that we would be rescuing Yumi individually, provided that he would enter and exit in silence and when successful he had to leave immediately. without being allowed to mind other things.
-This is a map that leads to the dark magician's lair, shaking off Kaito and Mika, remember to be careful.
-Where's your sword?
- I drew.
-He?
Both Rin and I were dumbfounded at Gaido's answer, probably because they couldn't believe that such a muscular person could draw so well. Every point in the painting is very detailed like a map bought from an artist.
-Hum? Is it strange?
-No, haha.
-... Can't you come with us?
-Unfortunately, we need to report to Leo and the king about their lair.
-Why didn't you report in advance?
Rin's question also made me curious, but after seeing Gaido's stern gaze, both of us were silent.
-Don't worry, if you're stuck there, we'll be there.
- "We"? I mean ...
-We will attack it. Can't let them rage any more.
His gaze at that time, it made me a little worried, that gaze filled with determination and anger.
-Sneeze! Do you have to go at night like this? I'm so sleepy
-Me too.
Leaving aside Kaito and Mika's complaints, Rin still stared at the table under the moonlight intently.
-This direction. Let's start
