Chapter XVII: The Belated Reaction Force

In the hotel, a man with a mask running with a woman in his arms should be a very conspicuous thing. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info

But it was as if no one was paying attention to me, like the man just now, and even if there were people looking at me, their eyes were not focused on me.

It's like—

That's right, as if I were the one Olivia spoke of, a Servant that humans couldn't detect.

I'm not sure yet, but if they don't notice me, it really helps.

I ran all the way home, probably as if this mask really hid some magical power, and I ran several kilometers in a row with Olivia at a speed about faster than a 100-meter flyer, and I didn't feel tired.

"Olivia, this mask is really strange, I always feel that if I wear it, I will become Superman."

"It's also the first time I've seen an A-class servant defeated, so I'm not sure what this mask can do.

However, according to the records, compared to the C-rank Servants who dropped the ingredients, the A-rank Servants should have left very rare magic items, and that mask is definitely not an ordinary mask.

Even if you don't know how to use magic, you can activate the power of magic items, and for magicians, this kind of thing is a treasure that strengthens your own power.

Even now, the magicians don't know why the demons they created were able to create magic items that even they couldn't imagine. ”

Looks like I've really picked up a treasure.

But when I think about the fight I just had with the Kamen Servant, I want to live in peace more than this baby.

"But is it okay if we just leave?" I asked.

Although Olivia and I defeated the Kamen Servant and escaped, the traces of the fight should still be in the hotel.

For the space that cuts off the load-bearing wall and cuts it like cutting tofu, I really hope that the hotel will not have any accidents.

"That should be okay, because the Magister's team will take care of this, using time magic to restore what has been destroyed, and erasing the memories of witnesses, which are all Magisters' strengths.

That's why I asked you to leave quickly after defeating the Servant, and if the Magister notices, you should know the consequences. ”

"Ah, that's right."

The Magus wanted to kill me in order to get a key, and while Olivia had changed her mind, the other Magus were not.

"Then again, Zhao Jie."

"What's wrong?"

"The magic runs out, I'm hungry, cook for me!" With light magic, Olivia, who was snuggled in my arms, asked like a coquette.

"Yes, yes!"

Probably since today's special "date", relying on each other like family has become a matter of course for Olivia and me.

Back at the apartment, I boiled the crab meat that Olivia had collected in the morning in a pot and scooped up a spoonful of soup to taste it, but the big spoon in my right hand spilled the soup.

"Is it okay, Zhao Jie?"

Seems to have been watching me cook since just now, Olivia asked worriedly.

"Huh? Uh-huh" I put down my spoon and looked at my right hand.

Spread, hold......

There is no feeling at all.

Although I hurriedly ran home, I think my entire right arm has been completely unconscious since I pierced the servant with my right fist.

In retrospect, how much force was it to respond to my wish and punch the Kamen Servant to pierce the Kamen Servant?

At that time, I only felt that my hand was blasting out like a cannon, and the walls of the hotel were even smashed by that punch. The reaction of that tremendous force to my fist, normal bones should have been shattered into slag long ago.

Then again, I only wished to throw a punch that would pierce the Masquerade, but I never thought about what would happen to my fist if I threw that punch.

Almost as soon as I thought of this, my right forearm bent in a very unusual direction before my eyes.

The next moment, I heard Olivia's panicked screams.

……

After that, I lay in bed like a sick person.

"Finally got it."

Lucy, who was sitting in front of my bed, wiped the sweat from her forehead and gently lowered my arm.

"You're lucky to know an elementalist like me who can heal magic." Lucy said to me with some resentment. "Your bones will not only be bent into nunchucks, but will soon become centipedes."

I couldn't help but look at my hands.

At this point, my right arm was completely covered with something resembling a plaster, and it seemed that the fracture was too severe, so although the bone was attached and healing magic was used, the injury could recur if the wind blows.

"And how messy you are, even your nerves are burned out, if you don't use magic, with the current level of human medicine, your hand will basically be useless."

"After all, I wouldn't have been hurt like this without magic."

“！！”

Lucy glared at me through her mask-covered black eyes, and I immediately shrunk my neck in fright.

"I was wrong."

"Well, it wasn't my intention to get you involved." Lucy shook her head. "Although the bones have been reconnected and the nerves have healed, it will take about a week for full recovery, so please don't go out during this time."

"What!?"

I have two weeks left before the end of my life, and I still have a week to recuperate?

"I know you don't want that either, but it's for your own good."

Then she came to my ear in a very small voice.

"What you're worried about, I'll figure it out."

What am I worried about?

Compared to Olivia, Lucy understands the common sense of human society better, but her heart is more elusive than Olivia.

I didn't know what kind of face was hidden under that mask, or what she wanted from me.

But before I could ask what it was worth, she suddenly looked sternly at Olivia, who was sitting on the edge of the bed, looking at me with the same worried expression.

"Olivia, I don't know what happened to you and Zhao Jie today, because I still have important things to do after that, so I don't have time to ask you carefully.

However, it doesn't matter if you're an A-class servant or if there's a conflict within your magician, but if you're going to get him in danger, it's better to stay away from him. ”

"Lucy, that's too much."

"Zhao Jie, shut up."

A scolding made me have to be silent, I always feel that where have I met this kind of woman......

And Olivia, as if she really felt guilty for my injury, was usually a mortal enemy with Lucy, but today she kept her head down without saying a word.

Lucy just sighed and looked at her phone again.

"I'm running out of time. Again, don't mess around for a week, and you can't go out without permission! ”
