By the time I woke up, it was already dawn.

I seemed to be the first to wake up, and the others, though not frozen, fell to the ground and did not move.

There are two things that need to be determined, the first is to determine the safety of my teammates, and the second is to determine Alice's situation.

But as soon as I came to stand up, I saw Alice not far away.

No way, let's take a look at her situation first.

"Hey, Alice? Are you okay? ”

No response.

Her clothes were tattered, and there were several bruises on her body, but the expression on her face had returned to its normal state, and it was not so scary.

"And breathing...... Do you want to save her......

The faint breath in her nostrils proved that she was alive.

When I think back to what she did to me and to my companions, I don't think I should save her...... But her essence shouldn't be bad, right?

I don't know why the idea came to me out of nowhere, or why I relentlessly used healing magic on her.

"Ahem...... I—Am I dead......"

Alice, who was lying on my lap, coughed violently twice.

"Not yet, I saved you."

"Kittens? …… Why? ”

Alice looked at her in confusion, she couldn't believe I had saved her.

"I don't know why...... But in return for saving you, can you let me and my companions go? ”

"Hmm...... That's no problem. ”

"Thank you."

"But I have one condition."

"On what terms?"

"Can we have a good chat tonight?"

"At night? Talk? Why? ”

I subconsciously wanted to run, but was caught by her hand.

"Of course, it's a continuation of the last one."

"Don't———"

……

By the time I had used one healing spell on everyone, an hour had passed.

I was so consumed that I almost fell to the ground again.

Thanks to Harina, she carried me on her back.

"Harina, if you're tired, put me down, I'll be able to walk on my own."

"It's okay, Miss Suzuki is very light, I'm not tired at all."

Since I said that there is no problem, then I will accept it with gratitude.

"Nao-chan, please pay attention to the next time you use magic, we've been frozen by you for a night!"

"What can I do? How do I know that the power of magic can reach this level after being amplified by Suzuki? ”

The first two people I rescued quickly recovered as usual.

"Please, you've seen my handsome performance before."

"That's because there's no difference between Hinako's effect before and after the amplification, so I was mistaken."

"Huh? What do you mean? Is that my magic useless? ”

"Stop arguing, stop arguing! This time I was to blame for not playing the command role I should have. ”

When their quarrel was about to get worse, I had to step forward and interject.

"Suzuki? How can you blame Suzuki? It's all because of Hinako's fault! ”

"Captain? It's not the captain's fault! It's the fault of this Nao-chan with erotic boobs! ”

"Why do you mention my boobs again?"

"Because the captain is always staring at Nao-chan's boobs!"

"Hey! Hinako, don't you spew blood! You have to pay attention to evidence when you speak. ”

This guy actually turned the finger on me, and I was kind enough to help you fight!

"No wonder I haven't been feeling Miss Suzuki's gaze lately, so I went to see Miss Nao......"

Hey? Harina, you don't seem to be happy anymore? Is it my delusion?

"Really, Suzuki? You don't really keep staring at my breasts, do you? ”

What does it mean that you are a victim and are happy?

Wrong! I didn't do such a thing! No, absolutely nothing!

"I'll go see how Nana is doing, and you can talk slowly. Run, Harina! ”

Although Harina looked a little unhappy, she still ran to Nana's place with me on her back.

"Don't run! Explain it to me! ”

"Captain, you're empty-hearted! Don't run, you big idiot! ”

I pretended not to hear Hinako and Hoshino's complaints from behind.

"Nana, are you alright?"

"Suzuki-san? Nana is okay...... Nana may be missing some Suzuki elements, though. ”

"Suzuki elements? What is that? ”

Nana seems to have learned a very strange word.

"I just want Sister Suzuki's touching, hugging, kissing and the like."

"Where did you hear this?"

It's time to teach Nana some lessons to those who indoctrinate in the wrong minds!

It sounds exciting, but I still don't do anything like teaching bad kids.

"On the comic I read before."

"That's all, Nana don't learn the above stuff."

"Is that so......"

"Of course, if Nana doesn't read manga less in the future, Suzuki-san will consider letting Nana play game consoles properly."

As the saying goes, there are gains and losses, and if you want something, you have to lose something. For Nana's healthy growth, it is necessary to keep her out of this kind of comic book completely.

"Nana will never read comic books again!"

"That's good, that's good."

I rubbed Nana's head with relief.

Sophia next to it———

I wanted to comfort her, but I noticed that she seemed to be staring at my neck all the time...... So I urged Harina to run away quickly.

"Vivi...... Is Mio-sama okay? ”

It wasn't until I had used my healing magic on everyone that I remembered that there was still Vivien lying in a pool of blood all night, and I hadn't saved it yet.

But by the time I arrived, she was already ——— struggling to sit up?!

When asked her why, she only said that it is difficult for God to die in the human world, and that he is basically an invincible existence——— which sounds very envious.

"Very good, but thanks to you, I can't participate in this year's beauty pageant."

"Why?"

"I don't want to meet that perverted princess again, maybe she will be made into something."

Seeing the power of the perverted princess, even Vivien didn't want to provoke her easily.

"That's right...... What are you going to do after that? ”

"I'll tell you when I think about it."

I could see something awkward about her.

Maybe it's because Haruna is here, and she's a little inconvenient to say.

Let's find some time to talk about it later.

"yes, I see."

"Speaking of which, you saved that perverted princess too......"

"I'm sorry, but I ...... subconsciously"

"You don't have to apologize to me, maybe you did the right thing."

"Really......"

"Go ahead, that perverted princess seems to be looking for you."

Turn your head———

Alice was smiling and waving at me.
