Part 8

「Mu? So you’ve awakened.」

「……Nnu」

Lumachina opened her eyes.

Having been noticed by Diablo, she tried to stand up in a hurry.

She staggered and ended up looking like she would collapse again.

Diablo supported her, and made her sit down a bit forcefully.

「It is still too early for you to move about. Although it was dispelled, you had taken in the hex for several days after all. It is only natural that you are fatigued. In addition, I had heard that you had even used a large Healing miracle, doing something so foolish.」

Moreover, it was for the sake of saving the enemy that tried to kill her……

She truly was a good-natured person.

After Lumachina made a small nod, she obediently sat down on top of the mantles, grasping her knees.

He received a somewhat strange impression of it, but the people of this country did not have a habit of sitting on the ground. There wasn’t a culture of sitting cross-legged or sitting a way a girl sat. The form of lowering one’s bottom while still in the position of sitting in a chair was probably what sitting on the floor while holding one’s knees was.

She fixed her disheveled clothes, and concealed her exposed thighs.

Her cheeks were dyed slightly red.

「I am sorry. I ended up showing you an unsightly scene.」

「No, I was able to see something goo──」

「Eh?」

He ended up nearly saying something strange. Diablo cleared his throat to gloss over it.

「Ahem! Do not mind it, it was due to their sorcery.」

「……Let us help you out as well.」

With a voice suddenly calling out, Diablo turned around.

Rem was making a wry smile.

「……As usual, you do rash things for the sake of helping other people, don’t you, Lumachina.」

「Rem-san. And everyone else.」

Shera rushed over to her.

「Lumachina-chan, you’ve become healthy now! That’s great!」

She suddenly hugged her. Lumachina also hugged her back.

「Thank you very much. Shera-san too, I have received much of your favor.」

「It’s fine! Companions help each other out!」

「Companions……It makes me very happy to be called that.」

Rem shrugged her shoulders.

「That’s disrespectful, you know, Shera? To call the High Chief Priest a companion……No, come to think of it, you were royalty, weren’t you.」

「Things like positions don’t matterー. Rem, Lumachina-chan, and Horun-chan……Plus Diablo and Rose-san, we’re all companions!」

Rem blushed.

「It seems that the Demon King’s army is advancing towards Zircon Tower City.」
