Holding a staff tied with a ribbon, a man with white hair and white robes strolled leisurely in the forest.

It is such a magician dressed up with a flirtatious smile on the corner of his mouth, obviously he has no more movements, but his body always gives people the illusion of petals flying and circling, which can be described as a dreamlike charm.

However, the essence of its charm is not human, and it is only a façade.

If you are faced with someone who is proficient in the devil's way, or has a considerable strength of magic in itself, you can easily tear apart the charm performance and see through the essence of this man.

"Haha~ Although there are no clues in the original task, there are still harvests, and the time on the other side is almost up, so if you barely atone for your sins when the time comes, you shouldn't be blamed." Saying this, the slightly flirtatious smile on the corner of the man's mouth suddenly turned into a heartless stupid laugh.

However, no one responded to him.

"Ahh

Merlin?

Yes, the man is none other than Merlin, one of the Sarvars who was summoned to this era······

No, compared to the other Sarvars, Merlin is more special, he was not summoned, but through some small means of his own, he could not be heroic and could not come to this era, he took a free ride, and thus took the initiative to come to this era.

The reason why it is said that it cannot be spiritualized is because Merlin belongs to the living in the strict sense.

He is the one who has appeared in countless myths and legends, standing at the apex of great magicians.

A hybrid of a human and a dream demon who has the highest magician's proof of 'seeing through the world', a scumbag among scumbags... Phew, magicians among magicians. According to legend, he was imprisoned in the claustrophobic tower of the Court of Avalon, observing the world for eternity······ To put it bluntly, it's voyeurism.

"Ahaha, can you be a little more considerate of the feelings of the big brother, even if it's the big brother Merlin, sometimes he dies because he is too lonely."

Merlin smiled wryly and looked back at the two loli's he had picked up behind him.

Anyway,The task at the beginning seems to be looking for some slate.,How did you pick up two Lori's in the end?

Then, he got two scum-like glances.

"Merlin, the liar, is really going to die."

Whispering such words, Sarvar Lori, who called herself Anna, had a cold and murderous intent in her eyes.

The other silver-white little Lori was more direct, and the little hands skillfully plucked their hair, and with a short chant of the incantation, the 'bird' with clear and simple lines was formed. Accompanied"

Angriff！ One after another, the magic bullets that were enough to make ordinary people lethal suddenly formed, and attacked Merlin mercilessly.

"Huh, hey, hey? Why are you attacking me? Obviously, I picked you up from the forest, and I signed a magic contract with you~! ”

Merlin screamed, as if panicked by the sudden attack, though the magic bullets had only vanished in front of him.

"Do you take credit for me and Anna to make up for your mistakes? I don't mind, but, Merlin, are you getting carried away? Our agreement should be to 'protect each other until we reach the human city', which means that we are on an equal footing, and I am not obligated to accompany you to further places, let alone become your credit. ”

"Oh, that's pretty sad. Why do you have to be so clear, wouldn't it be nice to help me a little, Eliya? Merlin's face froze.

That's right, the silver-haired Lori's name is Eliya.

—Illyasfil von Einzberen.

Originally, he was supposed to belong to an unrelated parallel world, but he arrived at a parallel world that only the second method could do.

Of course, the other party is neither Sarvar nor a second magician.

According to Illya, it was only one day that she received an invitation to fulfill her wish, and in a blink of an eye, she came to this strange era.

"My purpose is the top priority, so why bother with you? Moreover, I summoned the adult King Arthur during one of the Holy Grail Wars, and according to King Arthur, the court magician Merlin was a true waste. Illya snorted coldly and said don't overdo it, she was already in a bad mood, so naturally she wouldn't save face for a magician who was full of lies.

Rather, if it weren't for the fact that she didn't know anything about this era, and the environment she was in was dangerous, Illya would never have gotten together with Merlin, and maybe the moment she learned the other party's real name, she would have chosen to be hostile or flee.

After all, Merlin is a real crumb!

"Aha-ha——! Okay, okay, I won't force you, so please don't say anything like that that hurts the big brother's heart again. Merlin raised his hands in surrender.

Well, if it was really King Arthur as an adult, it seems that Merlin would indeed treat Merlin as a waste and evaluate it.

It was because it was too probable and reasonable, and because of Illya's subtle tone of voice, Merlin couldn't accept it.

Hey? Wait!

Anyway, Artoria isn't here, why should I be sad?

Thinking of this, Merlin immediately became justified again.

"Humph! If you don't obey, you'll be left here. ”

"Ah, it's true that I can't defeat the legendary flower magician, even if I have infinite magic, but even in the gods, as long as I have a holy relic and enough magic power, I want to summon Arthur... Oh no, any of the Knights of the Round Table at Camelot, they should still be able to do it, right? Illya said with a look of conviction, "I think they will gladly accept the task of defeating Merlin that will help everyone, and Anna will help me too." ”

"Merlin to die, Merlin to die, Merlin to die······" Anna thought to herself.

"Why say such a terrible thing? Big Brother Merlin is just joking, and he will never leave Illya and Anna here. Merlin smiled sheepishly.

After reassuring for a while, what kind of assurance to make, and proving his harmlessness, he finally dispelled the idea of killing him with the two little Lori.

Suddenly, Merlin paused, and the magical halo that flashed in his purple eyes dimmed in an instant.

"Your eyes... MONOCULUS? Illya Zou frowned, and had a bad premonition.

"Hawkers,Actually, it's more advanced than the magic eye in the ordinary sense.,But the effect is quite single.,Just observe what's happening in the distance.,I didn't expect the other party to give such a warm gift this time.。 Ahh For the first time, I felt too enthusiastic, and it was hard to accept. Merlin scratched his head in embarrassment and pointed into the distance.

"A return gift?"

Then, Illya and Anna, following Merlin's direction, saw a huge ball of fire in the sky that shot like meteors, burning and mixed with a hint of white light.

You call this a return gift?

“······”

"Merlin is going to die."
