CHAPTER 85 INSPECTION

Were here

Being first, Nadia was in very high spirits.

Lunch under the bright sun, we have come to the grasslands in the outskirts.

Me, my three wives, and with Balthazar, the five of us.

With the exception of Balthazar, we come here a lot.

Going for a picnic, sleeping in the afternoon, or playing with new magic spells.

Since its wide and open, convenient place, we come here a lot as a family.

And Veronica, recently, she usually goes here out for a walk with Coco/Mami.

I feel very warm seeing the appearance of Veronica going out for a walk with Coco and Mami with a leash connected to their wrist, so I sometimes follow them secretly.

Well, enough of that.

Oi, Nadia

Whats up?

When I called her, Nadia returned with a trot.

Why did you bring us here?

Its for, Hacchan to practice controlling her powers you know

Control? Practice?

Un! You know, that sneeze. She need to control that right?

Ah, well, thats true, thats a little troublesome. Id be able to react and protect when Im around, but it would be the worst if Im not around. Its crude since its powers are dispersed, but its destructive powers arent that different from the first generation

Is that so?

You saw the mansion getting blown off right? And also, I feel like its strength is gradually growing. I guess that shed be able to blow off a whole town sooner or later

As expected of the Demon Kings daughter huh!

Im already the Demon King you know? Only Hacchan is still alive within Balthazars

Balthazar said in a carefree tone. No, the first generation is alive in that space though.

But well, leaving that on the sideDemon Kings are something like that huh.

Then even more, you should learn to control it. To become Lucio-kuns wife too

To become a wife?

Balthazar tilted her head. She was still having a light and fluffy air.

Sylvia also soft and gentle, but it is a different kind from that.

That trait of Sylvia feels like peaceful and quiet, with a pinch of timidity on the side.

Balthazars fluffiness is like out of the world. Common sense would be hardly of use.

Right, to become a wife. If you cant do that, you shouldnt become Lucio-kuns wife

Wifeeven if I cant

Then, you cant hold hands

Ill become his wife. Even if the whole world becomes my enemy

Hmph, with high spirits, Balthazar made a very lovely guts pose.

I thought that she had settled down overnight, but shes still hung up on that huh. For some reason, shes firmly determined too.

I mean, is everyone, really fine with that

I think that it is fine

The one who answered was Sylvia.

Balthazar

Call Bal, Hacchan

Ba, Balthazar-chan, I dont know much about her, but I know that she has strong feelings to be together with Lucio-sama. I-I think that it is fine

That is exactly right. Leaving her on Lucios side would also be for the sake of mankind

Its not something so difficult

With a face full of smile, Nadia tapped the other twos back.

She really likey likes Lucio-kun, and shes not a bad girl so she should be together wi

th him

I think that, thats too simple.

But, it looks like that was good enough.

Both Sylvia and Veronica, after getting surprised, they nodded with a convinced face.

If so, even morefrom how I think of it, is it not fine even if she cannot control it? It is something that would not cause any problem if Lucios around

Thats why Im saying, there are also times when hes not around right? What if, Hacchan is just like Sylvie who would wet her bed when Lucio-kuns not around because she got sad, wouldnt that be bad?

Waa! Waa! Nadia-chan, dont say that!

Sylvia waved her hands and was saying WaWa. She took a glance at me with a very flushed face.

I mean, well, it was like that huh. Sylvias habit of wetting her bed, I thought that it has completely disappeared recently, but shes not completely out of it huh.

un, this also love as a husband, I should make it as if I didnt hear anything.

I also, when Im sad and lonely without Lucio-kun around, my head would explode

Is that not just a gag

Vero-chan also

What is it with me?

Veronica glared at Nadia under a smile.

Shes facing Nadia so I couldnt see her expression, butI felt cold.

Shivers were sent to my spine.

it means, Hacchan needs to train!

Ah! She diverted the conversation.

Nadia, shes probably having a cold sweat.

I dont know what she was about to say, but, un, its for her own sake to say nothing more.

Lucio? Right now, did you hear anything?

N-No, nothing at all. I just suddenly felt my ears hurt and couldnt hear anything

Its also for my own sake to not ask anything, un.

The conversations divertreturned to Balthazar.

If that is so, you want to overcome it?

Yes

By the way, what magic was that? That sneeze. If I knew what magic is it, its possible for me to pin point it and seal it

Bal, she doesnt know how to use magic?

He?

I doubted my ears. She cant use magic?

No, there are a lot of people who cant use magic, but then, what in the world was that sneeze?

That was just a normal sneeze you know?

A normal sneeze?

A normal sneeze

Balthazar clearly nodded with an immediate answer. Is it that, she really cant use magic?

To confirm that, I casted a magic spell on Balthazar.

Inspection

The magical light enveloped Balthazar, burst off and disappeared.

Its a magic spell that checks how many magic spells are learnedor Grimoires read. A figure should come out if she had learned any magic spell, but if none, nothing would happen and it would burst off like what happened right now.

By the way, Sylvia, Nadia, and Veronica, 1 came out from them, and in my case, it easily exceeded five figures.

TheInspectionwas working properly.

Then, it just meansshe really doesnt know any magic spells, huh.

I thought that that sneeze was very crude, butI see, its a magic spell, but magic powers being released casually huh.

Strangely, I got convinced.

Is there nothing that can be done, if, it isnt magic?

Thats not true at all. Right! Lucio-kun

Yes, if it is Lucio-sama, then surely

He is my husband after all, this much, it would not even be called a problem

It seems like Im quite trusted huh.

Well, I can really do something about it though.

I searched the magic spell inside my head, if it is just a release of magic powers, thenthat one should be good enough.

Worm Hole

I used the magic, the space before Balthazar distorted.

The distortion that could be seen with the naked eye, its not like theres anything special, but it was just, distorted.

A given example would be, the heat haze during a midsummer day.

Sylvia, Nadia, and Veronica, all of them focused on that.

Whats this? Is it okay to touch it?

There isnt a problem with just touching

I touched it first to show them. But even so, there isnt anything there, so rather than touching, its more like passing through.

When my hand passed through, my hand looked like it was distorted.

Waa! Looks fun

Nadia passed her hand through the distortion many times.

So fun. Look, look, Sylvie

And she even puts her head in it.

Nadias distorted face, everyone laughed out at once.

After finishing laughing.

And then, whats up with this?

Its probably better if you actually see it

I said that, and looked at Balthazar.

Everyone got into their senses, and focused on her.

With how the conversation progressed, everyone knew that its a magic to counter the sneeze, so theyre expecting for a sneeze.

The only one whos clueless was Balthazar. She stared back at us while tilting her head.

Yosh, Sylvie, go and catch Hacchan

Un, I got it

I picked this up earlier. The end of this plant is like a fluffy wool, so it should be enough

As expected of Vero-chan! Its the wisdom of an old woish noshing!!

Nadia who received the long and thin thing from Veronica after saluting, and Sylvia who hugged Balthazar from behind.

Using that thing, Nadia tickled Balthazars nose.

Aha, ahahahaha. Stop it

Here, here, hurry up and give up

Should you not just plunge it inside her nose?

I see!

Ah! Balthazar-chan, dont struggle

Call Bal, Hacchahakushun!

Her refute changed into a sneeze.

She made a huge sneeze, and just like up until now, magic powers were released.

The magic powers that would cause an explosion were absorbed by the distorted space.

In the next instant, another distorted space appeared in front of me.

And from there, the enormous amount of magic powers blew off, and hit me directly.

About half of the grasslands were blown off, and the earth was scorched behind me.

I should fix it using magic later.

Lucio-sama!

Sylvia called out to me worriedly.

Dont worry, hes the one who did it purposely, so he shouldve expected this

Ahahaha, Vero-chan, your voice is shaking, worried huh

Its rather, you should worry about me a little more.

After the magic powers smoke cleared, and looking at me.

Thank goodness

W-Well, its this much desu wa

Ahahahaha, Lucio-kuns head exploded. Youre going to wet your bed tonight, Im sure

Different reactions with each of the three, its nice that theyre having fun.

For the meantime, the sneeze is solved with this, I guess.
