Chapter 198 Dont Worry, If Hes Alive, He Can Be Saved

A-Akiraaa!?

Boys and girls rushing to the stage at the same time as the match ended. Ooh, is this what people call youth? Except for the object at their destination, it exactly looks like youth, yeah. As for Haru, she seems as if she has finished a satisfying job, and the gap between them is huge. Well, since Haru kept her promise, I have to fulfill my part too. Lets go.

A, augh, guu

Kyaaa!?

See, hes barely alive, isnt he? I made the right judgment, didnt I?

Well, thats not what I meant. I just think that a little more compassion would be nice

The scene of the incident is chaotic with screams and vomits. Haru went out of her way to hide it so that they didnt see it, but they came to see it on their own. Especially those who are vomiting, we are still using this place, you know?

Okay, excuse me, coming through~.

By pushing my way through the crowd of classmates, I was finally able to reach something that seems to be Akira. Ooh, its terrible. The face he was proud of is swollen up like pickled plum, and its no longer possible to tell who he is by just looking at his face. His hands, feet, and even his fingers are bent in the wrong direction, and there are holes and wounds filled with mud all over his body. Moreover, this poison is made so the damage it gives is as weak as possible so that he can experience the pain. It even has a slight numbing effect on the body.

The poison produced by dark magic can change its nature depending on the ability of the user. Its a poison that only causes gradual damage for normal use, but this time, Haru clearly adjusted it. Hmm, the growth of a disciple sure is emotional

O-Oi, what are you going to do to Akira?

Follower A, who seems terribly frightened, asked me fearfully. It seems that hes scared of me. Why is he so scared of this kind old man? I dont understand what young people think.

What, you ask? Im going to heal him. Youre in the way and youre bothering me, so can you move away?

D-Dont lie! Youre trying to get us to let our guard down so you can finish off Akira, right!? I wont be fooled!

No, Haru already finished him off ahh, she would violate the rule if she did that, huh? Thats why they are suspicious of me now. I get it.

Then, I wont do anything. You can treat Akira-kun on your own. See you.

Eh? Ah

When I turned my back easily like that, I heard the distraught voices of several people. Ahh, jeez. They are indecisive, huh. Joseph, Joseeeph!

Everyone. Unfortunately, we need Deris-donos power in order to heal Akira-san completely now. As you can see, Akira-san is in a dying state, having been poisoned and his entire body has been destroyed. Fortunately, the poison is not immediate, but if it lasts too long, he will surely die. Could you please believe in Deris-dono?

At first glance, there is no one among them who can use powerful recovery magic. Well, even though Joseph said so, its possible for Chinatsu, whose job is a priest. I wont tell them, though.

S-Sorry. Help Akira

Please! Akira is going to die!

Hmm I dont like the way they ask, but hes really going to die if I leave him like this. Also, Nell is telling me to do it quickly that her gaze is getting fiercer. Lets start now.

Then, you guys should go back to your seat obediently. Theres the next match, so Ill take this guy to the corner and heal him.

Eh? Next?

Yeah, next. The first player has just lost, but there are three more players, right? Look, Haru has finished her preparation and is waiting.

Lets do our best!

A male student who seems to be the next player looked again at Akiras appearance that has changed.

No, wai

The second player Murakoshi, come forward.

Haru vented the pent-up resentment she received when they got transferred to this world here. Its no longer about overthrowing the strong opponents, but Haru seemed satisfied with her four consecutive victories.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

We walk through the corridor. The inside of the castle is magnificent, and even the carpet on the floor is fluffy and soft. There is very little resistance on the sole of the foot when stepping on, and it is easy to wonder how expensive this is.

It might be too late asking this now, but was it necessary for us to go to that farce?

Not absolutely necessary, but just in case, I guess. In any case, things wouldnt have happened without Nell and Joseph. It wouldnt hurt to accompany us to watch the match, would it?

Deris-dono. I am grateful for this matter, and I fully understand that it would not have been possible without your arrangements, but please change the way you speak to Prince.

As long as its not in public, Im fine with it.

Me too I dont really like being too formal

Look, the next king and the next mage prime minister said so, you know?

Uhh.

Then, we have to open the heavy door that protects the royal room. It makes me want to complain that its too heavy even though its just to separate one private room. Still, its not as much as the secret door of Nells mansion, so Ill forgive it.

It must be hard for the servants to clean. Do they have to open this every time?

With Deriss power, there wont be any problem, right? I mean, your disciple is like that.

Ah, you are right.

I agree

No, as for how I feel, its depressing. Setting works and hobbies aside, I want to make my daily life as easy as possible. If possible, I want all doors to be automatic.

How many magic items are you going to waste on?

Since I was walking at the front, I was by chance positioned to open the very heavy door. Yeah, yeah, Ill open it.

So, is the king awake?

Beyond the door is the room of the king of this country. Im not going to explain the interior because its too troublesome. Ive had enough of expensive carpets, doors, and the likes. Nell and Joseph come into the room first, and they are standing by the bed where the king is lying.

W-Whats going on? Joseph, Nell. Those are the people who were at the previous selection meeting, uh, ah

The king didnt seem to understand the situation at our sudden visit. However, when he recognized Nevels, Prince Diass face, he seemed to understand what we are here for.

These people have some important things to discuss. Please keep them company obediently.

!?

Nell put her hand on the handle of the sword in the scabbard and said so while looking down. This is scary. If its me, I would kneel down unconditionally.

Thats right This is a trivial coup dtat. I want this to end peacefully, so please calm down. Also, please understand that I and Leader Nell are on their side.
