Chapter 16: CHAPTER 16: Second member of Night Raid
Returning to the castle with Alpha and the girl suffering from [Demonic Possession], Leon worked hard to restore magical power on the way.
He even gave the excuse that he didn't want to use his magical power to rush because he wanted to see the scenery along the way.
"I see. I'll accompany you. It would be nice to go for a real walk like this once in a while."
Alpha admired the landscape with great interest, although, for some reason, her eyes turned to Leon.
Leon himself didn't have time to look at the scenery. He tried his best to restore his magical power.
After all, treating [Demonic Possession] would require him to do it himself, and this process also consumes quite a lot of magical power.
(It seems that I need to study ways to increase my MP. Although my magic power is enormous, it will always be depleted as long as I use attacks of that level.)
(And to use the full power of EA, super large magic power is also required...)
(Is there any easy way to obtain magical power? Emmm... Hmmmm~ I think I have a clue.)
Leon raised the corners of his lips after thinking for a moment.
He had an idea!
He thought to himself that he really was a genius, that he could come up with such crazy ideas, and he couldn't wait to go back and do experiments.
-------
…Finally back to the castle…
Finally, Leon accumulated enough magical power to forcibly suppress, guide, release, and appease the unrestrained magical power.
This time it was done quickly.
"Oh? Also an elf this time?"
Although they were the same race, the girl had a completely different appearance from Alpha.
Silver hair, blue eyes, a mole in the corner of her eye and pointy ears that symbolize her elven race.
Although she is still a child, it is not difficult to see that she will become a beautiful elf in the future.
"Have I recovered? Really returned to my original self? This can't be a dream, wuwuwu!"
After the silver-haired elf woke up, she discovered that her body had returned to its original appearance. He let out tears of joy and burst into tears.
Then, she looked at Leon and Alpha blankly, as if waiting for an explanation.
Leon didn't like explaining the same thing over and over again, so he gave Alpha a signaling look, and the blonde elf understood immediately.
"Firstly, congratulations on your recovery. Her [Demonic Possession] was cured by Leon. Next, I will tell you the truth of the story. In fact, we are descendants of the heroes who defeated the demon Diablos, but..."
[A/N: In short, it's the same as what you already know...]
After listening to the story.
The silver-haired elf froze in place.
If she hadn't experienced this, she would definitely think it was a lie, but the shock caused by this fact shook her view of the world.
Only then did Leon stand up.
He stretched out his hand in front of the silver-haired elf.
"So~ You are now free. Choose your future path. Do you want to return to your hometown as if nothing happened, or become our companion."
"...Please let me be your companion! Please!"
The silver-haired elf wiped her tears and said.
Go back to your hometown?
This is impossible!
After she was discovered to have [Demonic Possession], the girl's life collapsed. Her family and friends considered her a monster possessed by the devil.
It would be useless to go back now. There was no place for her in that family. From the moment she was abandoned, the so-called family ties were completely severed.
But!
If it's these two people, if they cured her of [demonic possession], they must have a new place for her to stay!
"Excellent, then from today onwards, give up your past, experiences, memories and names! Instead, I will give you a new life - from now on, you will be Beta, Night Raid's second seat."
"Yes yes!"
Beta panicked and quickly crouched down.
Overall, the organization managed to double its membership!
Leon thought to himself: Hehehe~ What incredible progress!)
Then, he gave the order to take care of the newcomer, waved his hand and walked towards her room.
After that, leave it to Ram, Rem or Alpha to take care of the girl. They are all very sensible and capable girls, so Leon doesn't need to worry too much.
After returning to his dorm.
"Shit, I'm exhausted."
Leon fell onto the huge, soft bed.
The bed is huge, three meters wide and five meters long, it is completely different from the single bed he slept in in his previous life. It's simply too big for seven-year-old Leon. His eyelids were already fighting.
The calm and tranquility from before was gone, replaced by a face distorted by exhaustion and pain.
With the injuries caused by killing the system still forcibly linked to him and the energy consumed in treating the [Demonic Possession], Leon could imagine that he would definitely wake up late tomorrow.
Plus he was trying not to look embarrassed in front of the girls, now he didn't even want to move a finger.
"Sometimes I am speechless by my own pride, but how can I show my embarrassment in front of my subordinates? The king must always remain relaxed and perfect. After all, the king's ugly appearance will make those who follow him feel uncomfortable." "
Furthermore, Leon is very aware of his dignity.
A proud person like him would never show his vulnerability in front of others.
But there are no exceptions.
There are only two women in this world who can make Leon drop his perfect mask.
