Isn't there a third option in Chapter 4?

"That's—Servant!?"

Lucy's eyes widened when she saw the monster. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info

"Servant?"

"It's hard to explain to you now, but this guy traveled here from another world to hunt down our magicians."

Lucy tried to stand up, but she immediately collapsed on top of me again.

"Oops, it looks like the magic we're using is being sensed by it." Olivia also looked a little anxious.

"I said you two, did you know that this guy might have run out of magic?"

"The mission is absolute!"

"I can't hand you over to the Magister."

"After all, it's just knowing the danger but willfully using up the magic power."

"It's all this guy who wants to be unrelenting."

"You're the one who doesn't hesitate to get into other people's spaces to make trouble, and if it weren't for you, I'd have already gotten the key."

"Are you still arguing at this time?"

Although both of them were planning to kill me, they were not the worst criminals, and if they did, they would be considered to be lacking in common sense.

Maybe even I don't understand why I can't leave these two people alone when I know that the purpose of these two people is my own life.

Body precedes consciousness, and I've carried Olivia and Lucy on my shoulder.

"I remember that this kind of servant only stays in the dark, so as long as he is in a bright room, he will not approach."

"I see, just rush into the apartment."

With that, I ran to the apartment a few dozen meters away. Behind the glass doors is a bright hall, so if you enter it, you can safe.

Seeing that I was going to run, the servant immediately sped up, that guy was amazingly powerful, and every foot could roll up the stones on the ground, but fortunately, its body structure didn't seem to be suitable for running, as long as I ran with all my might.

"It hurts, please be gentle!"

"How can you be so picky when you die, after all, you two treat me as a prey, but I am here to save you at the risk of death, give me a good thank you for Uncle Ben's generosity!

If it weren't for me, you two would be humiliated, you know? ”

"I can't refute it, but your claim is very infuriating."

……

As a result, these two mysterious girls were taken home by me.

Neither of them can exert their strength when they don't have magic, but they can actually regain their strength with just one meal.

"I've decided not to kill you!"

Olivia, who had been rejuvenated by my hospitality, suddenly said this to me.

“……”

Growing up, I don't quite know what to say when the murderer gives up killing me.

"Well, thank you anyway?"

"No, it's me who should thank you exactly, without your help, I would have been killed by that servant." Olivia, dressed in a suit, bowed her head to me frankly. "I can't kill my benefactor even if it's a mission, so at least I won't attack you again without permission."

Am I going to allow you to do it to me?

It seems that as I expected, this mysterious girl named Olivia is not a demon who kills people without blinking, but simply lacks the moral concept of human society, and is not a bad person in nature.

"What about you, elementalist?"

Compared to me, Olivia seemed to have a greater personal vendetta with the masked girl Lucy.

"I'm not like you," Lucy sipped unhurriedly, sipping the green tea I had just given her. "Although I also target Zhao Jie, my goal is not to kill him."

Later, two people told me another story about them, living on the back side of this society, which was not very long.

Magicians like Lucy and Olivia originally lived in another world, a civilization that had been born out of magical technology, a world of considerable harmony.

However, some magicians have led magic technology astray, and as a result, they have created a new kind of human beings that they call "Majin".

The created demons are extraordinarily violent and uncontrollable, with a magic power far greater than that of mages, and although they are few in number, they can easily defeat them.

So, the leader of the magicians fled the world with the surviving magicians and lived incognito among the humans in this world.

The boss sealed the gates of the two worlds, and while the demons could still send monsters like the Servants to hunt down the mages, they themselves could not pass through the gates.

Over the next 100 years, the magicians continued to conduct new research and grow in power, while at the same time, the magicians were divided into two factions.

An elementalist who studies ancient natural magic and wants to maintain the status quo and coexist with humans.

A magus who studies the emerging magic of time and space and wants to reopen the door and reclaim his home from the Majin.

Although these two forces have always been coordinated by the leader of the mage, but recently the leader has died, and the two forces with opposite goals, the elementalist and the mage, have completely broken up.

"At present, the Magus has mastered the technique of opening the door to the world, but in order to open it, you must obtain the key inside you." Olivia said to me. "I don't know how you got it, but the Magister doesn't care about it himself, and it's important for us to get the key back first."

"We elementalists are the opposite," Olivia said to me, Lucy said. "Once the Magister opens the door to the two worlds, war is inevitable, and the stability we want will be in vain, so we must not let the Magus get the key."

Although the purpose of the elementals is the opposite of that of the Magus, they only care about the key, not my life or death.

If the Magister's purpose was to kill me to obtain the key, the Elementalist's purpose was to keep me in a safe forever, a safe that the Magus would never find, regardless of life or death.

"While I don't intend to kill my benefactor, unfortunately my decision cannot affect the Magister's overall decision.

My mission is limited to one month, and when the time is up, even if I don't do it, someone stronger will come after you. ”

"The Elementalists are here to stop the Magister, so that's when our higher-ups will also take action.

Of course, as someone who was saved by you like Olivia, I won't forcibly arrest you back.

So, before that, Zhao Jie, you can choose which side you are on. ”

"Hey, one is to kill directly, the other is to be locked up for life, no matter which one I choose, my life is over, I heard it right."

Hearing my words, Lucy, who was wearing the mask, seemed to have a somewhat sad expression.

"It's a pity, but that's it."

From that day on, my daily life went into the countdown.
