1549 War and Peace, Part 87 - Conference Day 2, Night ③ -

"So, Jake hit you and you're back?

"... yes."

After Jake hit me, Osiria was back to Doom. There is only other milnay in front of me.

Milnay took care of his sword silently, and Doom was reading. Doom opened his eyes wide for a moment to the absence of Osirian arms, but he was not seen moving. I felt Doom's anger on the contrary, and even Osiria was now being told extra words.

Doom replies as he reads the book.

"Actually, Milnay said something was wrong with you. Weren't you going to see Jake and Titania again in the morning?

"... yeah, I am. I was just watching from afar so they wouldn't notice."

"How did you set me up? This time we're totally backwards. You told the bystanders we'd be thorough, didn't you?

Doom's words are particularly true. It was such an arrangement, and this time the purpose was to experiment with Milnay's performance. Yet I couldn't help but find Jake from the mundane and see how encouraging Titania and training seemed very dangerous.

As it is, Jake sublimes to another being. Such unspeakable anxiety had come to Osiria, and if he had noticed, he had set it up.

But Osiria also hesitated to keep her mouth shut. I don't know what Doom would think of me if I talked about being fearful, etc. that should elevate my stature to the fifth place evil spirit and be a being that scatters fear. Even for Osiria, losing a companion named Doom was above all something we had to avoid.

It's always a mouth-watering doom, but at some point when I closed the book, I stared silently at Osiria. Milnay was silently sharpening his sword, but you noticed a doom that looked different, or rather staring at the two of them.

And Doom moved slowly. Take Osiria's left arm and stare at the wound as it shivers. And most importantly, when I stuck my left hand in that wound, I dug it back around. Not that there was pain because of the evil spirit, but Osiria also distorted her face due to the discomfort that wandered through her body.

And when Doom finished messing with him, Osiria's left arm was back to normal.

"I made up for the evil spirits I had. You'll get used to it in a while."

"... thank you."

"I'll just ask you one thing, Osiria. Look at Jake, what did you think? I want you to be honest with me."

Doom's question seemed to see all the inside of Osiria. Osiria took a breath and responded to Doom's question.

"- I thought you were scared. Any human, demonic, black sorcerer - no, I never thought I was even scared at the moment of death, I thought I was scared of that boy. That's probably"

"He seems to be the only way to kill us."

Osirian's words have been continued by Doom. Keep it up. When Doom gets back to the chair, he keeps talking as he reads.

"Well, there are many other ways to be exact, but Jake is the trump card to us that's easiest to understand. That's what Arnelia thinks. He's just not a 'saint knight'. I looked into the Holy Knight character who once had traits against evil spirits, but he was a bearer of traits similar to Jake"

"So what's Jake's trait?

To Osiria's question, Doom was looking for words, staring into the universe.

"... I still don't know Jake's characteristics. It's best that I don't set Jake up because he's not ripe yet, but the other thing is, he doesn't even understand his traits that scratch me or Osiria.

Probably unprecedented characteristics. Looks like the bandrass I took in at Tarrum was getting that answer in vain, but I'm not sure yet. Instead, if Titania brings out Jake's traits, that would be welcome because it would make it easier to take action. "

"What if Jake gets stronger than we can handle?

Doom laughed furiously at Osiria's question. With such a loud laugh, Milnay looked up as frightened. Even Osiria had never heard such a laugh of Doom.

"Osiria, you still don't get it. There is no such thing as invincibility. The organism has a background as a creature in a slippery way, always with strengths and weaknesses. When you first saw Lifeless, you were overwhelmed by that amount of magic, right? But how did you react when you saw the artifact I had?

"... he hated me."

"Exactly. Any opponent always has a weakness. The black magicians already have measures in place for all of them. As long as we're ready and conditioned, it's possible to finish everyone off."

"Really?"

To his surprise remarks, Osiria overheard, but Doom replied as he turned his fingers in space.

"We just need an environment where we can run. Some opponents need enormous preparation for that. For example, Dragreo. The easiest thing to understand is to bump a silence, but, well, it won't work the way you want it to."

"? Silence is dead, isn't he?

"You think so? If he dies, we can make sure, right? Is it that so many anomalies die without leaving anything paranoid? The main unit isn't dead yet.

Anyway, if it means not just killing Jake but playing with him, it takes a lot of preparation and stage. Don't set me up without my permission in the future. Can you promise me that? Otherwise, no matter how much you... "

Doom pointed to Osiria. Even if the trick is a joke, Osiria knows there are no lies in the words.

Osiria had half her fear of Doom, bending that Doom's finger in the direction of the day after with mindfulness in order to distract her shame from her own demise.

"Ghaaaa! What are you doing, people are seriously talking!

"Well, I know. As your wife, I will never again."

"I wish I knew, but you're gonna consume evil spirits again to fix this? It's a waste of malice, not at all!

"... it's a friendly thing"

Milnay's sense of being able to say that when he saw these two was no longer human apart, but none of those making the point were on this occasion.

And when Doom celebrated Milnay's main battle appearance and ordered Titania's surveillance on the subordinates Milnay was taking him further, he was turning his mind around to the main battle of the Unified Martial Arts Games, which will begin the day after tomorrow.

"(Damn, I thought it would be interesting to scratch around a bit, but you've become a conference and competition that seems interesting enough without having to do anything. That archbishop named Anolun, did you really aim for him? If that's the case, you're either a big festival lover or a villain more than I am.

I'm looking forward to it, starting the day after tomorrow... huhuhuhuhu) "

Doom's sneer melted into a quiet room, coupled with the sound of sharpening Milnay's sword.
