Chiyu Mahou no Machigatta Tsukaikata ~Senjou wo Kakeru Kaifuku Youin~

At last, I finally made it back to Lyngle Kingdom from that jungle of hell .

Although I was poisoned by the snake before and was injured, Rose was able to heal everything .

At the moment, I wasnt able to do that with my own power .

Thinking it like that as expected, Roses healing magic really is amazing .

Probably because I was secluded in the forest this whole time, it felt like a long time had passed but its actually only been 10 days .

Right now, I was in an old stable near the Rescue Squads lodging house with the Blue Grizzly cub, now named Bluerin, and tending to its wounds with healing magic .

I ruffled its blue fur with my hand .

Fufufu, its a nice name, if I do say so myself . Isnt that right, Bluerin?

No, I really do think Bluerin is a good name .

Its a Blue Grizzly so taking the Blue and ri then changing it to rin You get a cute name that has some aspects from its original character .

Even so, its really times like these when my naming sense comes out .

While I was nodding to myself, I placed my hand on Bluerins head . The little guy moved its head as if he nodding in agreement to my words

. Kapu .

While making such a sound, my hand was bitten .

. I see, it seems youre very happy about receiving this name . Hahaha, you couldnt control your play-biting that even blood is coming out?

As for the current situation, Bluerin was accepted into the kingdom without problems .

To be honest, I thought we would be kicked out . However, from what Rose said, a monster that obeys a human such as the black rabbit Kukuru is usually considered pretty safe . After being observed for a few days, we gained permission to enter the kingdom .

Apparently, I also have to submit a difficult report and some other things along with this . For that matter, it seems Rose will be the one doing it for me .

On the surface shes a really scary teacher but I dont dislike being able to rely on her at times like these those are my true feelings .

By the way

Kyu?

Its you, you traitorous person no, you traitorous rabbit .

Kyu~

Its useless even if you cutely tilt your head like that you know?

For a moment, my heart felt swayed from that cuteness and I felt like forgiving it but Ill keep that a secret .

My relationship with Bluerin was similar to Rose whose pet was Kukuru .

Kukuru is a monster called the [Noir Rabbit] and is apparently considered quite rare from what Rose said .

I have a bit of a grudge towards this rabbit .

Im talking about how my pure heart was played with . Purposely injuring itself just to get closer to me, something like that although I do see its praiseworthy for doing it as the task given by its owner

However, Im not satisfied with something . You being Roses pet I was thinking along the lines of a dragon or a legendary living creature Its unfair that youre this cute right!?

Gwa!!

Ouch!? Sorry! Bluerin is cute too!

Bluerin is the cutest okay!? Thats why Thats why Dont beat on my lower leg!

While desperately suppressing my pain, Kukuru looked at me with an odd expression . Then it jumped onto my back, used it as a stepping stone and jumped once more .

Looking behind me, Kukuru was on Roses shoulder .

There there, good child .

Rose-san . .

Ou, I properly took care of the report . This bear is already the Rescue Squads property .

Property, huh .

Well, thats just how it is .

Its not like theyre letting me stay here for free, theres also the need for Bluerins feed . It wouldnt do if this little guy isnt working .

While thinking that, I faced Bluerins direction . He was sticking his face inside the bundle of straw . Somehow, its like its entire body was shaking .

Bluerin, you No matter how scary Rose is, thats just too much right?

Well the matter concerning this bear is already done with . I came here because of that good-for-nothing thing .

Good-for-nothing?

Its that snake right?

Calling it a good-for-nothing . . is it just the literal meaning or could it be for an entirely different reason?

If its about that monster, I encountered it when erm Kukuru was leading me to a place with clean water .

I see . That thing was in a place where we couldnt find it while healing its wounds and saving up its strength . . However, to be able to kill the Grand Grizzly

Umm

What is it?

Exactly just how dangerous is the Grand Grizzly? The only thing I know about it is from books, thats why

This was the thing I was the most curious about .

I truly want to know just how dangerous of a place I was thrown into .

Rose folded her arms while showing she felt it was troublesome .

Let see . Even if this countrys elites gathered and formed a group, they wouldnt be able to match the enemy . Its at that level .

Are you an idiot!?

Ah?

Im sorry .

I ended up apologizing immediately . This was a situation where I could make her back down but despite that . I reflexively apologized!

If I think about it carefully, the snake killed the Grand Grizzly who would easily overpower a group of elites . It almost desperately cornered me to my death, so while I cant say Im amazing; it makes me want to work a little harder right?

I voiced my thoughts to the unconcerned Rose to see her reaction, and surprisingly she didnt give me the usual verbal abuse .

In relation to the events this time, you passed . No, you can even say you went above and beyond that . Although we injured it before, you were the one to drive it into that state . Youve earned the right .

What right is that exactly?

Its the right to be on the same battlefield of war as me . Your foundation is still lacking but youve obtained something different from other healing magicians .

Something different?

A body to withstand pain, the physical ability, in addition

Rose held her fist against my chest .

A tenacious spirit, something that the other two remaining healing magicians on my team werent able to obtain . Be proud of it .

Im still not really self-aware of that but Nn? Two other healing magicians?

That reminds me, there were two other healing magicians besides Rose in this squad .

However, I havent seen their figures at all after I was thrown into the Rescue Squad .

Their bodies are weak so theyre in running a clinic in town .

Ah, so thats why

Im kinda envious .

After all, they didnt have to go through Roses training

They will support us from the back lines, others will collect the injured, while you and I will be in the vanguard healing the injured .

Im in the vanguard!?

Naturally . Youre similar to me, thats why .

What is?

I dont have time . The Maou army will come soon . I suspect that in order to not fail like last time, theyll come aiming for us this time . From there, you will appear as the hidden gem .

To sum it up, Im like a trump card to the Maou army wah isnt that too much of an exaggeration? Rather it might be close to deceiving them .

Such an important task, could I really do it?

In a battle of life and death, would my mental condition still be the same as usual?

Looking at my dark expression, Rose probably was able to guess my thoughts and said,

It cant be helped if youre feeling worried . But prepare yourself, they will definitely hunt for the heroes on the battlefield .

!?

Kazuki and Inukami-senpai .

Both of them are different from me, they are true heroes . Its already been arranged for them to be fighting the Maou army .

They will definitely be fighting on the battlefield .

What should I do?

To be honest, I dont really want to participate on the battlefield .

But above that, the feeling of not wanting to lose a friend in this world is stronger .

Theres also my own stubbornness where I wouldnt like it if both of them went without me . The both of them are doing their best, I wouldnt like it if only I was in a safe place . Theres also the fact that we came from the same circumstances .

Its similar to a childs selfishness but turning a blind eye to it is something I cant do .

I looked at Rose with a serious expression .

I will not fight .

Ou .

I will not kill the enemy .

Ou .

But I will save everyone .

Thats fine, were a medical squad, theres no need to kill the opponent . What matters is how many we save . The guys that want to self-sacrifice themselves hit them and take them back . The enemies that want to kill our guys snatch them away from the enemy . The guys that seem like theyre on the verge of death do everything to keep them alive as if your own life was on the line . That is our role you understand? Newcomer . Keep on talking about these idealistic thoughts, we the Rescue Squad, just wouldnt be the Rescue Squad without them .

I have a power .

Its not the power to kill the opponent, its the power to keep others alive .

Until now, Ive been unsure about my own path . But at this moment, Ive come to a decision because of this persons words .

The battlefield is a merciless place where people can easily die .

However, if my power can help save someones life in a place like that without hesitation, I stepped forward .

I responded to her words by raising my voice,

Yes! Leader!!

It was at this time that I became a member of the Rescue Squad .

Shiru: Meow . (` ) I mean Nepu!! By the way, sometimes the author writes it as Kururu or Kukuru . Ill stick with Kukuru for now since Ive seen more Kukurus .

So yes, I did consider dropping this project since I thought that I wouldnt be able to update as often now . When I started, I had more time but now there are more real life obligations like school and work Im especially busy this week and next week since a lot of my exams are on the same day and close together .

If you want to take over please feel free to contact me . Just be aware that should the next translator drop it in the future, its unlikely I will pick it up again . I also want to see this series translated so some of you may know that I asked around if anyone wanted to pick this up . Well, sharing my translation with others also helps me since I receive feedback . The process of translating itself has also helped me improve a lot .

If youre a reader, it would also help me to know what you think .

You understand and dont mind a decreased speed . No! I demand more updates! Lets try getting another translator! Start prioritizing quantity over quality . (No TLC, edits, PR, etc)

Erm yeah, have a nice day .
