Chapter 57 (Red and Black world)
Forbidden spell king?
".........................."
Forbidden spell king you say?
"Ma~, you don"t have to be that surprised. At least you"ve already heard a 『legend』 about me right ?"
"Kukuku, what"s with that subdue respond ?"
Is this a dream, I wonder?
In other words, this place is an inner s.p.a.ce like thing where only my consciousness have been summoned ? is that how it is?
"Emm... pleased to meet you, forbidden spell king."
Since the person gives its name as such, for now, let"s just call the person forbidden spell king.
However, I can"t let my guard down if the master of that 『sense』 is this person.
"ー so then, may I know why you called me who is currently sleeping because of fatigue to this place ?"
The forbidden spell laughed.
"I"m surprised. It"s good that you"re able to understand it this quickly. Well, it"s nothing important."
I was about to think of talking seriously, but, unexpectedly the forbidden spell king replies my words lightly.
"Now then, Sagara Kurohiko."
"How is it, about this world ?" Nn ?
"Nn ?"
"Ah, is that how you see it ?. I"m not... Let see; I"m more like an 『audience』 I guess ?"
"The place where you are nowー"
*Zudon* "Why am I being called ?"
"Because I"m interested. in you, a person who have the same power as I do."
"...Something like that."
The forbidden spell king giving off the feeling that someone is watching him.
"Well as you can see, you might say I"m really enjoying it."
"..................."
How far does he know?
ー『Right now』?
Overreaction... that"s meanー. A huge stone.
After the rock come down in front of the forbidden spell king and me, it lightly floats above the ground.
A plain with nothing interestingー rock.
"After 『that thing』 is being extracted out it seems like you"re able to 『refresh』 eh? Well, nevertheless there"s also a part of me that judge that 『one part』 is necessary."
"Kukuku, it"s good that you"re able to understand fast. That"s right. That thing is one part of Sagara Kurohiko from the 『previous world』. The corrupt part of 『Sagara Kurohiko』."
My corrupt part.
The time when I have an interest in nothing.
"After all, you"ve finally come to another world, and it would be boring if you have no interest. nonetheless, I also the sameー."
*Rattle*The coffin shook.
"O-Oi..."
One black spear pierces through the black coffin.
"Kukuku... Sorry, I talked too much."
It seems like he"s fine.
No, I think that"s not the case though.
"Well, what I want to say to you is, you don"t have to think about anything, and you can live in this world however you like."
Eh ?
"Live... however I like ?"
"Emm, Forbidden spell king."
Before, when he was about to speak regarding forbidden spell a spear comes flying, what I want to ask, it has a very high probability of being a forbidden topic.
After all the one in front of me is someone who calls themselves as forbidden spell king.
.............................
However, I wonder why...
"Yes, for now, I"ll stop."
The forbidden spell king probably being swallowed by that 『sense』.
"Anyway, that"s what I want to say to you directly. as advice from a senpai. well, though I feel relieved that you seem to be able to master it properlyー"
One more spear pierces through the coffin.
"Kukuku... that G.o.ddess is a really troublesome... there"s the saying at your words for this kind of things right? ah right, that"s the one... the so called 『yandere』ー" *Stab*stab*stab*stab*
"I-I understand! Oi ! I know what you want to say that"s why! Oi, I don"t know who"s there, but you can hear me right !?"
I shouted toward the person who manipulated the spears.
"Do stop it! since I"m stupid, I don"t understand what the forbidden spell king want to say! that"s whyー Uwaaaah !?"
One spear stabbed deeply between my foot.
"Hidoi !"
A ma.s.sive black hand shows up from the red sky smashed the coffinー then I regain my consciousness.
..................................
I wake up.
However, I don"t have any memory regarding that kind of place, and I do not have a desire for such thing either.
"......................."
How long did I sleep I wonder?
I"d slept too much.
But, now there"s no fatigue left.
Now then.
Well if we go with the usual way of thought, just like the legend says, that place is the 『earth prison』 where the forbidden spell king is being imprisoned.
Then, that means that the forbidden spell have the 『power』 to summon them from the earth prison?
Fumu.
And also the last words that the forbidden spell king said... that is, I suppose he already determined to say those words huh?
That"s how I felt... as one can expect, words of an experienced person is very important.
".........................."
I guess I will think about that place another time.
The sun already rises slightly.
First, let"s prepare a bath.
Sat down on the chair while reading a book.
"Ara~, good morning."
The girl who sat on the chair isー Makina-san, she sat on the chair reading a book while being illuminated by crystal hung on the ceiling.
As one"s can expect, I don"t feel any surprise anymore.
"How is your body ? are you able to rest properly ?"
"Is that so..."
"Yes, you look good."
"It might be because I get used to it, but I feel that this one suits you better than the usual clothes. it gives a refreshing feeling."
Somehow she looks happy.
"Since when you"ve been here ?"
"....................."
For not saying the specific time, is really typical of her.
Yesterday, they seemed to have some talk about whether or not she can stay in the academy.
"Ah, is that how it is ?. thank you very much for coming here early in the morning."
She seems to have read me completely.
"For her to be able to attend the Academy 『almost without a problem』, currently the chance for that is 50-50. the judgment will be after I meet the sacred royal family today."
"Indeed... It will be much faster to settle it if I meet the key figure early after all. At any rate, I was going to report to the sacred royal family in the first place."
Makina-san then lay her face down on the desk.
"Nevertheless lately... the works unrelated to the headmistress work has increased. the date for the chivalric order to hear about yesterday circ.u.mstance is also not yet being decided, I also have to go to the imperial palace and also the matters regarding Kyurie as well... ah, come to think of it, there"s also the issue of the man who escaped detention room... haaa~."
Nn?
Emm... somehow that sounds familiar...?
When I just arrived at this world, a guard was going to put me inside the disciplinary room because the detention room is under construction(come to think of it, where is he now ?),
Makina-san lay her head on the table looked at me.
"Mou I will just throw them all away, I wonder to whom should I run away to ?"
I laughed while mixed with sighs.
"Whatever you say, in the end, Makina-san is the type who do the job properly right ?" "Since I can stay in this house with the condition for me to listen to your complaints. please do let it all out."
"I understand."
I went outside to see off Makina-san.
"Yes ?"
"What is it? please don"t be reserved and say it..."
"None."
Makina-san opened her eyes in surprise.
"If I can"t see Makina-san then that place is a questionable place."
In that sense, I"m very grateful toward her.
"F-Fuun, is that so? I-It"s good for being able to meet me n-ne~."
Somehow she gives off the feeling of 『Darn it』.
"What"s wrong ?"
"Misunderstand ?"
"? Yes..."
Misunderstood...
Nn ?
There I completely realize.
"M-Makina-san."
"That, I don"t think you misunderstood anything you know ?"
"Emm I... even without all the accommodation, just by meeting you I feel really grateful."
"That"s why, what I mean is... emm... as a single human, I like you! t-that"s what I meant! w-well then, see you !"
After saying that, I rushed inside my house.
Somehow at the beginning she only receives 『I can live in this world thanks to Makina-san... 』 nuisance from my words.
I also respect her personality; thus I should express my words properly.
Even though it"s just step by step.
It"s all thanks to you, Forbidden spell king!
ーNo, I think you"re a bit wrong in that.
I heard some voice inside my head which sounds likes coming from far away place, well, it"s probably my imagination.
