CHAPTER 82 THE DEMON KINGS SNEEZE

I fixed the half-destroyed mansion using magic.

To be sure, I looked at the mansion from the garden, and checked if its completely fixed.

It looks like theres no problem. Fu

What happened?

Balthazar came to my side.

Shes as flighty as usual, and was staring at me.

Because of somebody, I used a large scale restoration magic that shouldnt be needed, so Im a little tired

Oh

Balthazar stared at me, and clapped her hands for a reason, it was a silent clap.

Dont mind it

Its not dont mind it though

I pointed that out, but she didnt really care.

Even so, youre really Balthazar huh

What do you mean, really?

The sneeze right now, Im familiar with the magic powers that were released. Ive fought several times after all. Against the original and the 7th

Is that so?

Its very similar. The magic powershmm, its fingerprint-like thing looked the same. Especially compared to the 7th

Balthazar stared at me intently. She stared at me without making a sound.

n?

When I looked back to her, she broke into a smile, and bowed her head.

Thank you for taking care of my mother

No, no, what the heck is that. Thats a little, no, quite off you know

Balthazar also didnt answer properly with that tsukkomi. *Totatata*, she ran, and looked closely at the mansion.

can we do a catch ball of conversation.

I approached her. While thinking, what should I do with her.

Fu, fu

Fu?

Fuekushun!

I instinctively crossed my arms, and created a magic shield.

Balthazars sneeze, I remembered when the mansion was half-destroyed.

And because of that, I instinctively defended, butnothing happened.

*Zuzuzu*, Balthazar sniffed.

Nothing happened with the sneeze that was facing towards the mansion.

My nose feelsh itchy

is it hay fever?

Hay fever?

That, or someones making rumors of you

Lucio-chans doing that?

No, thats why I said someone, right. Im in front of you after all

Un. Lucio-chan

Un?

I wakushun!

She sneezed in the middle of her words.

This time, facing towards me.

Theres no problemI thought, but I reacted instantly.

I felt an explosion of magic powers, so I created a magic shield in a hurry.

I couldnt make it completely, and a part of my clothes and hair was burnt.

Lucio-chan, youre a little burnt huh

Whos fault is it

The mansions huge huh

Lets please talk with each other

Fuekushon!

A sneeze towards the mansion. I was surprised, but there was no explosion.

Its really itckushon!

This time, towards me, the cutest sneezeand the most powerful explosion.

The shield that I created beforehand was destroyed, and my head became more burnt.

You, youre really

Faito

Faito your face. You

re doing it on purpose right

Balthazar tilted her head.

She had an expression that looks at it strangelyI could see her not having any evil intent, so much that its surprising.

Dont tell meshes doing it naturally? Something like a clich?

Oi, oiyoure kidding right.

yosh.

Balthazar

Call me Hacchan?

Hacchan

Un!

She made a very happy face. This, its difficult.

Ill cast a magic on you, so stand still

Magic? Lucio-chans magic?

Yeah

I got it

Balthazar closed her eyes.

She closed her eyes, and stuck out her lips.

its not a kiss you know.

I ignored that pose, and casted a mind searching magic.

Mind Reading

The light of the magic enveloped Balthazar.

Its a magic that materializes what ones thinking inside.

Their resultsit depends on the person.

A person who thinks of things with words, the words would come out through a voice.

A person who thinks of things with images, those images would come out.

Sometimes, there are people who think using sound or simple colors, but even with those people, deciphering is also possible.

For the meantime, the thing that I want to know, is if Balthazar has ill intents or not.

I casted magic with thatand then.

A manga sentence balloon-like thing appeared behind her.

Balthazar was the type with images.

Its good that its with images, butto think that, it was my face that was inside the balloon.

Face, face, face, the balloon was completely filled with my face.

A smiling face, an angry face, a crying faceno, I dont cry.

My face as completely filling the balloon.

shes only thinking of me, huh.

And, I found out another thing.

Ill intents, it looks like she doesnt have any.

Because the background is light blue, and looks very peaceful.

A person who has ill intents would have black, and people who are full of desires have purple or all colors, so I can tell with that.

This isnt important, but Isaac is a person who thinks with colors, and its always pink colored whenever I looked at it.

She doesnt haveill intents.

This is troublesome, but I cant feel any ill intent from Balthazar at all.

I imagined something like approach him, then when he lets his guard down, but it looks like its not something like that.

Is it already finished?

Its finished

Yay

Balthazar opened her eyes.

She looked at me, and softens her sight. She made a very happy face.

The balloon thats still behind her changed. My face that was manyit became only one.

The head was a little burntmy current face.

She seems very happy looking at meits a situation that I can only interpret like that.

Is she reallythat happy.

Lucio-chan

What is it

I want to play with Lucio-chan

Play?

Un. I want to play a lot, I want to play a lot. Together with Lucio-chan

play, huh

Taken aback, I think that those words are used in this kind of situation. (TL: taken aback = literally translated as being stripped off of poison)

Thinking of this and that, I feel stupid being on guard.

I guess so, lets play huh

Ive had free time from the beginning after all.

For the meantime, lets return inside of the mansion

Un

I started to walk to return inside of the mansion, Balthazar followed me from behind.

Well then, what should we do. It was when I thought of that.

Kuchi!!

A very cute sneeze, and proportionally terrible destruction powers.

I somehow guarded, the mansion was blown off without any remains.

Maybe I took this too lightly, I thought, but.

Lucio-chan

Looking at her that still have the balloon, I couldnt bring myself to get angry.
