A NEET’s Guide to the Parallel World: Healer, the Strongest Cheat? - 218 245

Lucius the Demon King is a roughly unattached demon clan. And it stinks.

But twice as many people, I’m sure it’s my daughter’s thoughts.

A few hours after finishing his other loving chat with the political sect, he is thus facing the World Mirror in the middle of this ventilated open large room, which, like earlier, offers a view of the Great Garden.

This is all for Toa, my beloved daughter.

With his hands gently behind his back, Lucius just silently stares into the mirror.

“Is that Electra?

Then you notice the signs, Lucius notices the electro that showed up in the room.

“Were you here?

“I was looking into the mirror”

……

There are no doors in this room, and that’s like a hall that showed up in the middle of a hallway that lasts longer than a room.

Signs are mostly seen in footsteps, but in the case of Electra, there is usually no shoe sound that should sound.

“” I didn’t even understand the carpent. You think the mirror is now “… etc?

“It’s no use, was it?

“You don’t remember?

To the sudden question, Elektra confused her expression without knowing what it meant.

“Masamune, it’s you.”

“What’s wrong with him?

Electra apparently doesn’t have the pretense to think of it.

“Now I know why Toa’s gone.”

“What do you mean?

“I’ve been guessing since the beginning. The door to an open treasure trove, the World Mirror that fell on the floor. I knew this mirror had something to do with it. But he thought there was no clue there more than the mirror showing no reaction. But I knew it.”

Lucius then slowly turns back to Electra.

“He was the one in the mirror”

“… that sort of thing”

Electra then gave a convincing look at the delay as well.

“I mean, that’s why Toa disappeared, right?

“It’s not about that…… no, did you also need an explanation about that?

The Thing and It. Each of these seems to represent something different.

And Electra still doesn’t understand the difference and what it means.

Lucius then coughs to change it a little, although it is not a pain in the ass.

“I don’t know for sure. But when Toa saw Masamune-kun through this mirror, she heard him talking.”

I wasn’t eavesdropping. The political sect and Toa were just careless.

If you speak in this well-ventilated space, you will know that the wind will carry all the sounds far away everywhere, for those who are accustomed to living in this castle.

It’s not weird who’s listening to the conversation between you two.

And of course Electra knows that.

That’s why I’m not saying, “Did you eavesdrop on my daughter’s conversation?”

“I mean…”

“Toa used a mirror and met Masamune-kun”

“Did the mirror get you two together?

“I didn’t say that. This is just a magic prop… of, it should be. Indeed, oddly enough, this only responds to Toa”

But at the time, Lucius didn’t look into this mirror so much.

I refrained from disclosing anything more than what I didn’t know who I was. There were some regulations in the unregulated demonic kingdom as well.

So only responding to Toa means’ at least ‘.

“I didn’t even respond to Masamune-kun, an abyss user”

“Wait a minute? What did you just say?

“Hmm? What, you hadn’t heard it yet? He is the Fool of the Abyss.”

Electra gives the words an unexpected look.

“… Fine. So? You let him try?

“Oh. But I didn’t respond. Again, this can only be used for Toa. But did I remind you of something? Elektra. You must have heard that, too. Don’t you remember?

……

Elektra puzzles her expression because she doesn’t know what that means.

I was looking for time to figure out what the word “then” meant.

“It’s just as soon as this mirror shows up in the garden. Only Toa could use this mirror then. The mirror responded to Toa, who reached out, and let out the light.”

Then a slight reaction appears to Electra’s expression.

It’s a sign that I’m about to think of something.

“Yes…”

And I notice Electra’s expression, and I urge Lucius to say “not wrong, remember” as well.

“At that time, Toa did say yes (,). I still remember. Because I’m the one who named this mirror World Mirror. I listened to that word of Toa and, as a result of the thought, interpreted it at will that this was a mirror that reflected the world. I still think so, but the hypothesis is slowly collapsing”

“That’s…”

“” Masamune “… Toa did say that then”

…………

“And he was talking about something in the mirror”

“But that’s…”

Electra had lost her word. But Toa, a child, did say that he squeaked.

“I don’t know if Toa was conscious. Because Toa was just a kid walking behind Rosalia back then, right?

“… Yep. I remember.”

Electra clearly remembered her memories of the time. But the question only deepens.

And as I immerse myself in memories, I ask Lucius for that answer.

“It’s impossible if you think normally. Anyway, Toa’s still young, and you’re not supposed to know him, are you? Besides, he seems to be from another world.”

“Otherworlds?

“He’s a Greyberg brave man.”

In that word, Electra understood.

“It wasn’t until a few months ago that Grayberg made his brave summons. It will also be at that time that he was summoned to this world. When Toa was a kid, he wasn’t in this world. There’s no way anyone who’s not supposed to be in the world mirror.”

“Toa from that day when he was just a young boy, you can’t possibly know him…”

Elektra groaned so as to deepen her understanding.

“That’s the thing. Everything is wrong. But Toa was undoubtedly“ Masamune, “whining his name back then. No, I honestly don’t know if that was him. Somehow Toa was the only one who could see what was in the mirror. And if you go to the country of play, there will be as many people with similar names.”

Electra couldn’t get in right away, she was just upsetting her eyes.

“If you say it without fear of mistakes, this mirror engaged the two of us. That’s what I think.”

“Lucius?”

“But I couldn’t use it for Masamune-kun. I thought it was something that would react to him, too. If he was able to use it, another tsugi fitted. I could be more certain. But the mirror showed no interest in him at all. I mean… you’re saying this has nothing to do with him?

To Lucius’ unreliable whining, Electra deepens her doubts.

But what I don’t know is that Lucius is the same.

He answers pale, but above all he doesn’t understand.

So I’m always asking myself.

“What is this? ……

That’s what Lucius meant. – What is this mirror? Why was it falling over there? Who brought it in? Why do you only respond to Toa?

I don’t know anything.

“More than that, is Toa in town?

“Huh?”

“I don’t feel magic in the castle”

“… I’m going to town with the Masamunes. For once, Lisana was accompanied.”

“Oh, you’re careful, huh? You don’t have to. You don’t believe him?

“You told me not to trust you, did you?

“Were you? But he’s a simple man. You don’t deserve to doubt it. I… am thinking of telling him”

You react suspiciously to that word, amazing Electra.

The short words alone showed what Lucius was talking about.

“What kind of blow is that? Of course, if that’s what you decided, I won’t stop. But it’s only been a day since I met him, and, most importantly, he’s an abyss user, right? They’re creatures who don’t learn, right?

“It’s a legacy of an old demon clan. You don’t pepper everything.”

“Old?… It’s from Master Rosev, isn’t it?

Electra gradually becomes less aware the more Lucius opens his mouth.

“I thought you weren’t interested in humans.

“Absolutely. But he chose Toa… I chose him. I won’t disconnect you. Same thing I chose you for. It’s not easy to take full control of the Ruling. Toa is not like Rosalia. Besides, Toa needs a lot of money right now, right?

……

“Disagree?

“Really, you’re looking ahead, aren’t you?

“… of course.”

“Even if they only produce ruin?

“There is also an interpretation that the numerous consciousness that bystands gave rise to ruin. The will and words of those who turn a blind eye when they are irrelevant create ruin. It is the world that has made them (,) fools.”

“Most things that are fascinated by the abyss are sensitive… their minds are weak? In the meantime, he’ll lose his personality, too, won’t he?

“If you mean to lose, that means our end, right?

“Huh?”

“Masamune-kun is much stronger than me”

“Well, that’s not true, is it? I can’t believe I’m stronger than you…”

“I didn’t feel it. But at the time of the destruction of Cassandra’s Demon Army alone in the first place, he is not already in my hands. Carpent, or… for example, could the Observer still do something about it?

Lucius chuckles at himself in words as he says so.

“… are you kidding me?

ELECTRA staring at you as if you were frightened.

“Or what about The Rickman Clan?

……

In such a way as to be frightened and speechless – Elektra stares at Lucius.

Lucius was also a grumpy man.

“It’s very serious. With Phishanatika and Heilkwegian blood, you will also be able to fight the abyss. In the worst case, Victoria moves.”

“That college won’t interfere. That’s what happened before, isn’t it?

“It’s a matter of scale. But if Masamune-kun is also his opponent, he won’t be able to say so. But if you do, it’s Toa who’s gonna grieve, right? Protecting him will consequently lead to protecting Toa. It’s all for Toa. Besides, this should be convenient for him as well. No one wants to lose sight of themselves.”

Lucius didn’t tell Electra everything.

Electra that can’t use Emotional Sense has things that you can’t see.

Lucius described the political sect as “stupid”. Lucius hid it, though he should know it was Electra’s invisibility and most importantly.

That’s because Lucius is uncomfortable with the political sect.

But at this time, Lucius was uncovering it, and it was hard to believe that it would have affected the future of the two of us.

Under the influence of the abyss, even the presence of the Demon King becomes sumptuous.

“Electra. I want you to keep an eye on him too long”

“Ha… what you’re saying is a mess, huh?

“Until we know who this discomfort is.”

But Lucius doesn’t realize with suspicion that all the answers lie in their discomfort.
