10 Minutes later....
Back to this moment....
"Haaahs... That one just now was very stressful..." Mumbles
"This is all because of Izumi's carelessness!" Yui muttered annoyed
"Who told and forced me to do it?! The beginning of all this is because of you! I was dragged because I was their target and their responsibility. I am also a victim!" Izumi Syndicator
"You two don't make noise. I'm gonna take a break..." Mumbles
"...."
After that Izumi was silent and just sat staring by lowering her head.
"Leader, is anyone sick? Why does it look so moody?" Ask Kagusa
"Ma.mmm...."
"I'm sorry...." Izumi muttered and continued to lower her head
"Master! Raise your head!" Shouted Kei
"Without me realizing I was showing you my cruel side and getting you all in trouble. Sorry..." Izumi muttered disregarding Kei's words
"It's not the leader's fault. It's because of that damn troupe! It is good for the leader to reduce your enemies a little and make it a warning for others!" Bela Kagusa
"you said a little? I knew that I had already obliterated about 200 spirits in an instant. Then you also yelled to stop me because I destroyed so many spirits..." Izumi's mutter
"...." - ".Kagusa fell silent
"I must have looked really terrible earlier, right?..." Ask Izumi
I looked at Izumi's face. His face looked pale and his eyelids were red as if they were about to cry.
"Ah, Izumi must have felt guilty for showing us such a thing, as well as for the spirits she had lost"
"Izumi had previously said that she had not obliterated more than 10 spirits, but now she had eliminated many times more"
"In addition, he knows all the things he did, only he can't control himself" I thought
I approached Izumi, then stroked her slightly messy hair.
"It's okay. You don't have to come like this because of that"
Izumi flinched and immediately looked up at me.
I returned his gaze with a gentle smile.
"This is not entirely Izumi's fault. And in my opinion, it was natural for Izumi to be angry at them because Izumi had not bothered them before. They were the ones who harassed Izumi first, and that was the consequence for them" I said
"During this time Izumi did not fight their disrespectful actions seriously. It should have been after this incident as well that they were at least a little disinclined to Izumi"
"So, let's just say it's punishment for them. Don't worry about anything, they deserve it. Then the four of us were fine, as long as Izumi was fine"
Izumi just kept quiet and said nothing.
"Well, that was pretty incredible. So there was no way Izumi would instantly calm down just because of the few words I said" I thought
"......sih...." Izumi's mutter
"Hm? What are you saying, Izumi?" Much
"Thank you"
Izumi who previously looked glum now looked better. He smiled gently at me as if he was overwhelmed.
I was immediately stunned.
"After.... Izumi put on an expression like that" I thought
Whenever Izumi had a problem then I said a few words to calm her down and for her encouragement, Izumi always put on such an expression to me. Somehow I felt like there was something behind her expression.
*
After the situation had calmed down, Izumi could quickly return to her normal self.
"Hey, you two are my subordinates, right? So quickly clean up all the mess in this room" Izumi said
Yep. This room is now destroyed. Almost all the walls and floors were cracked and blackened by the fire I was emitting plus the aura of all the fighting spirits. Not only that, there are even some walls that are destroyed until the wall is broken. The things inside this room were also all smashed into pieces.
"Heee~ Subordinate? Not that just not until 30 minutes ago the leader considered me a traitor, now instead say I'm the leader's subordinate?" Kagusa Syndic
"Just get everything done! I will take them both to another place" Izumi said firmly
"Leader, the one who destroyed this room the most is you. And again, this is the castle of evil spirits. Why am I a good spirit so follow me to take care of this castle?" Ask Kagusa
Quickly, Kei directly hit Kagusa on the head very hard.
"Ouch! What's the matter with you, anyway? You evil spirit!!" Shouted Kagusa
Kei immediately brought his mouth closer to Kagusa's ear.
"Do you not know or how? The master had just returned to normal after a craze, how about you crunch again? Think that! Just follow all the orders of the master!" Kei Whisperers
"And again, it seems that master did it deliberately so that we do not interfere with master's time" Kei continued
"Huh?"
Kei instantly moved away from Kagusa and faced Izumi firmly.
"Good, sir. We will do" Kei said respectfully
"We? You're alone, kali"
"You want to take me to a duel?" Ask Kei
Such is. Now Kagusa and Kei are again told to destroy by Izumi.
*
In the corridor, Izumi and Yui were walking around not knowing where.
"I can't teleport to earth now because my power is exhausted. So while waiting for my strength to recover, you can travel wherever you see this castle" Izumi said
"Ah, no. Don't go too far. There may still be evil spirits willing to attack" Izumi said hurriedly
"No, no! Don't walk away from me! If any spirits see you, they may think you are an intruder" Izumi said, changing her mind
"Eh, no. You must be tired after that. You better take a break first" continued Izumi (Don't know what to do to women)
Yui and I were silent at Izumi's behavior and speech.
Then I thought of something.
"This is a castle, moreover the castle belongs to the leader . But why are there so many spirits that can get in here so easily and make a fuss, huh?" Thought
"You might think how this most powerful spirit castle could even be entered by its enemies so easily"
Me and Yui instantly flinched. It seems that Yui is also thinking the same thing as me.
"That's because I don't come here very often. And the spirits that occupy this castle are not many, so the protectors in this castle are somewhat weakened"
"But even though I rarely come here, that doesn't mean the protector is really weak. Which means, it must be Maeru and all his subordinates working together to break down his protector"
"When are you both evil spirits, but why are you hostile like that? Aren't criminals friends with criminals?" Ask Yui
"Unfortunately I'm not evil enough to be friends with criminals" Izumi replied casually
"Although we both have an evil side, but still, we will be friends with those who are similar to us, even in another sense" said Izumi
"That means, Izumi is kind of like Kagusa and Kei?" Much
"Maybe?"
"Can't it~ How can my handsome guy be of the kind with a terrible creature like this?" Yui said
"You want to test my strength again?" Ask Izumi
"That's enough, you two!!"
*
After walking for a while, we directed Izumi to rest in the room in this castle, and after that she went somewhere.
I sat on the sofa in the middle of the room. And before long came a plate filled with snacks and cups that floated near me.
"It... They are moved by the aura. That's great!" I think amazed
I picked up one of the macaroons on the plate after the plate and cup landed on the table in front of me.
"It's edible, right?" Mumbles
I tasted it, and it tasted so good.
"Ah, no wonder Izumi's appetite is so high. For a snack it's been this good" I thought
After I ate the 1 macaroon, I heard the sound of knocking on the door from outside.
"Yurin, I'm in, yeah"
"Yes, just go in"
Izumi came in and sat down next to me.
"Hows it? Yummy?"
"Why are you asking for sure?" Much
"Not good, huh?" Izumi asked disappointed
"I mean, the macaroons are so good!!" I screamed in panic
"Is that? Goody"
"By the way, where did you go?" Much
"To send the spirits to put up another protector" Izumi replied
"Yes too..." Mumbles
"Then where were they during the attack? Why aren't they helping?" Much
"They left, the one in this castle was just us. They just got back"
"You'd better add the spirit that guards this castle even more, Izumi"
"It's not that easy. If it's in the good spirit castle, it's no doubt because all good spirits are on my side. But for evil spirits it is different. You know for yourself more than half of the evil spirits are against me. I can't put all of them on my side here"
"That's inevitable. Although the strongest protectors were installed, they would secretly destroy them little by little together"
"Have anything like this ever happened before?" Much
"No. Most of them also hate me and are afraid of me, so don't risk attacking me under normal circumstances"
"Then, Izumi, what about the time of the territory war? You once said that in order to conduct a territorial war, the forces of good and evil spirits must be balanced. How can you go to war with that evil spirit as a partner?" Much
"Yurin, you said the macaroons were delicious, right?"
Izumi took the macaroon on the plate and put it in my mouth.
"If it's good, why stop eating it?"
