Becoming a magician in another world

Zoe's reappearance made not only Sam but everyone present unable to react.

When I came to my senses, there I was.

Can't explain further.

But the second time, Sam of course also had the battle-hardened magician Ur and Gunther, Jonathan, Jonathan, and Katherine was not too surprised.

Some people also said that they knew in advance that the demon kings were coming.

However, the female lineup reacted differently.

Karen and Mizuki raised their fists and knives to protect Liz, Alicia, and Grace.

He looked nervous, almost pouncing at the slightest sound.

"Ah, what a lovely girl. Where is she from?"

The most laid back Catherine asked Zoe while protecting Kaoru.

So, Zoe, with a cool expression, moved her eyes from top to bottom, showing confusion and slight fear, and turned her face to Sam.

"...What kind of creature is this? Is Ogg a species?"

"No, even if I say so."

"Yeah. It's a small matter. I'm upset to such an extent. I'm not mature enough. Compared to that, a human child, it's true... Samuel? It's Shait."

"what"

I'm not going to ask why I'm here or anything else.

Because of something. And, about Ur.

Sam waited silently for Zoe to speak.

"Although I would like to prolong that woman's life, resuscitation magic will have the opposite effect."

There was a painful silence after Zoe said this.

It's not without reason. Everyone has high hopes for Wuer.

There, the expected magic of resuscitation is not only meaningless, but also counterproductive.

Only Wuer disagreed.

"What should I do?"

I will not doubt the words of Zoe, who came here specifically to advise me.

Sam asked for help.

“——Purification”

"Purification?"

"Speaking of holy magic, you know what?"

If Sam's memory is correct, there should be very few people who can use holy magic.

Although it is called magic, its existence is closer to a skill, and only heroes, saints, or high-ranking priests who have practiced for many years can master it.

Needless to say, Sam couldn't use it.

"That woman is like a dead person because of the ruthless spell, but she has the contradiction of being alive. If you cast resurrection magic on such a woman, the effect will be the opposite."

"So, where is the person who can use holy magic?"

“——It can be used!”

Kaoru raised her hands and shouted.

Everyone's eyes were on her.

"I can purify."

"Oh. So, I've heard that humans have saints. Are you one?"

“…Yes, that’s right. I’m Kaoru Kirishima. Although I’m immature, I was summoned to this world as a saint.”

"Kirishima Kaoru, remember this. But be careful. There are many purifications. The most important thing is that even if the purification is successful, it may not bring you the ending you want."

"Hey, what's going on?"

All eyes were focused on Zoe again, and Kasarin asked on her behalf.

"If the purification is successful, there are two results. One is to return to the human world and live a short life. This is a good result for you, right?"

“What’s the other one?”

"The dead are purified and can rest in peace. In other words, they will experience a second death."

“This is a bet.”

"It is beyond comprehension that the woman would have survived even with such an imperfect transformation and even with the time limit. A miracle is happening. To deal with that miracle, a miracle is also needed."

Since the Najarians are not here, it is unknown what means were used to revive Ur. In other words, according to Zoe's suggestion, Sam and the others can only gamble on purifying Kaoru.

There would be a huge difference between success and failure, and no one except Ur could hide his uneasiness.

Zoe told the Sams like this with a cool look on her face.

"You'll die anyway if you leave it alone. No matter how distressed you are, you won't change what you can do now."

"...Even the Demon King can't do it?"

"No. First of all, since we don't know how she was resurrected, the way we deal with her is no different from yours. If we had more time, it would be different, but that woman has very little time left."

Zoe explicitly asserts that the remaining time of Ur, which he considers to be short, is "short".

In other words, that's what it is.

“Why are you giving us advice?”

Sam was curious that the hostile Zoe had come back specifically to offer him advice.

While I understand there was no ill intention, I would like to know the reason for the action.

"This is Lord Douglas's mercy. Just thank you."

"...Yes. Please thank Douglas for me. I will thank him myself next time we meet. Please."

"I don't want to be your messenger, but it's okay. Tell Mr. Douglas."

"Thank you"

Zoe, who had talked to Sam till that point, leaned against the wall and closed her eyes as if she had decided the rest herself.

There were no further suggestions, and it was up to Sam and the others to decide what to do.

"Sam, I—"

Ur's answer is certain.

She expressed gratitude for the miraculous resurrection and thought it was enough.

There must be no need to do anything for yourself.

but,

"Woo, woo, it's okay to bet. Please, please let me try."

One who hopes so is Ur's father, Jonathan.

"......Father"

"I know you're mentally prepared. But as a parent, I want to hold on if you can live longer."

And it wasn't just Jonathan who wanted Ur to live.

Mother Grace, sister Lise, colleague and friend Günter, Catherine, and Sam who respects Wuerl's will.

"Really, I am a happy person to be thought of this way."

Everyone hoped that Ur could live. After receiving that wish, Ur, who shrank his shoulders in distress, broke his will and changed his mind.
