Merci went and stood upright.
「……」
Even though she was standing, she looked as if she were sleeping. Her eyes were open, but there was no expression.
Diablo was flustered and called out to her.
「O, oi!?」
「……Yes.」
She replied with a flat tone.
He had absolutely no idea what was going on.
「You, did you use some kind of magic?」
「……Un.」
「Explain it to me.」
「……《Hypno》. In my case, about three minutes……Hypnotism.」
「Did you say hypnotism?」
「……They will listen to orders, or like, feel like they “did” it even though they didn’t.」
Going *mumu*, Diablo pondered.
To think it would go as far as forcing orders and altering memories! The fact that their appearance would clearly be strange was a weak point, but it was quite the powerful magic.
「And the activation conditions are?」
「……Contact for more than thirty seconds. Skin to skin.」
「Eh? To touch directly……」
When I groped your chest, it was through the clothes──is what he was about to say, but then he remembered that Merci was touching Diablo’s hand the whole time.
This wasn’t the time for it, but he also remembered the sensation of the young girl’s chest and felt bashful.
Diablo shook his head, and cleared away the lewd feelings.
「Hmph……It’s quite the powerful magic, but it has a suitable activation condition. Bad Status-type magic also has the possibility of being resisted.」
「……It’s because dere dere men……have weak resistance.」
Is that how it is?
He had never tested it before, but it was a likely story.
Thank goodness he was able to reflect magic.
If he were to get manipulated with hypnotism by a young girl like this after having gone out of his way to come to the royal capital, it wouldn’t just be pathetic.
Around the time three minutes passed──
Going *Ha!* Merci returned to normal.
「H, huh? I……?」
Diablo folded his arms and breathed a sigh.
「To think that flower vendor girl was doing prostitution fraud with 《Hypno》……」
Merci became flustered.
「Wha!? Why……was it exposed……!?」
「I said that I was a Demon King, didn’t I? Something like your crafty magic, won’t work on me.」
It was simply just reflected from the 《Demon King’s Ring》’s effect, but he wouldn’t go out of his way to tell her that.
Her panic was terrible.
「No……Sorr……Don’t……F, forgive me……」
She trembled ferociously.
He had no intention of frightening her that much though.
「You, you’re a student of the Magic Academy, right?」
「Hii!? Stop……Don’t tell the academy! I’ll get expelled!」
So as he thought, she was a student.
It was the same setting as that 《Flower Vendor》 NPC.
「If you do not want to be expelled, then why did you do something so stupid?」
「Ugh……Since my family’s poor, the academy’s teaching material fees……with just Kaa-san’s earnings, we wouldn’t be able to pay for them……There are also others like the enrollment fee and the tuition fees, so a lot of money is needed……I didn’t know before.」
Diablo clicked his tongue in his mind.
In the MMORPG Cross Reverie event, was the NPC that was acting as a flower vendor also standing in the plaza for that sort of reason?
And then, she was turned into a sacrifice.
She couldn’t be saved.
If the 『Subjugate the Destruction God Europa』 event was in progress even in this other world……
──That kind of sheetty story, I’ll pulverize it!!
He asked a question.
「Lass, if you do not want to die, then answer my question.」
「Hii!? Am I, going to be killed!?」
「Answer me!」
「Ha, hahi……」
Trembling ferociously, she cried large tears. In truth, he didn’t intend on threatening her to this point though.
「Haven’t students being going missing at the Magic Academy?」
「Fue? Erm……ah……They have. That’s when Sensei told us……That we shouldn’t go out alone.」
She was totally alone, and moreover, she was loitering the town at night, wasn’t she. This damned fool.
──I guess I should barge into the Magic Academy and hinder the ritual. I’ll crush the culprit while the sacrifices are insufficient!
He returned his gaze to the trembling Merci.
There was no way he could allow something so dangerous to happen again.
Diablo once again took the small bag out from his pouch.
He handed it over.
「You should stop doing such a stupid act.」
「Eh!? Eh!? Eh!?」
「I will give you gold. If it isn’t enough, then work properly for it.」
──So even though I was a NEET in the original world, I’m saying something like “work properly” huh.
He was a bit embarrassed.
Merci accepted the small bag, looked at the gold coins inside, and then her face blushed.
「U, um……I, really, can’t do “anything”, you know?」
「I didn’t hand that over with that sort of intention!」
「Then……?」
It wasn’t like there was a need for something in return though.
Suddenly, he came up with something.
「Do just as I say. If you don’t want to die that is!」
