The Wrong Way to Use Healing Magic

Healing Wizard, Usato.

There were four occasions when I was involved with him.

The first time was when the Demon Lord's army was still in existence, after his second attack on the Kingdom of Lingle had failed and he was defeated.

The second healing wizard running on the battlefield.

Something like a man who disappears like smoke and is as swift as the wind.

An enemy of unknown meaning who struck with healing magic.

Many were the tales told of him.

He was attacked to the point of unconsciousness, and yet he lived.

All that is etched in his memory is the memory of being knocked unconscious by something dressed in white.

The reason why he is still alive ...... was later revealed to be that he was using healing magic to incapacitate the soldiers, but I still remember that I was in a state of confusion because of it at the time.

The second time was when I went with my sister Amira to Hinomoto, the land of the beastmen.

The second time was when he went with Amira to Hinomoto, the land of the beastmen, where he had a fierce battle with the former corps commander Koga.

I don't particularly respect him, but he is the best in the Demon Lord's army.

I recognize his strength and that's why I'm under his command. ...... I didn't think it was unusual for him to consider Koga as a good opponent.

The third and final battle against the kingdom of Lingle.

He seemed to have gone on a rampage even more than in the previous battle, and I was told that he had fought the First Legionnaire, Lord Nero, and was still alive, that he had transformed into a monster in a series of battles with Koga, and finally that he had captured the Third Legionnaire, Hannah, with his deformed power, or some other ridiculous story that I could not determine whether it was hallucination or fact.

I was told by Koga, who had actually fought him, that he had borrowed the power of a dark magician, but that didn't make any sense to me at all.

And for the fourth time.

When we came to the castle of the demon king, I ...... no, we had to fight him face to face for the first time here.

His physical abilities are so ridiculous that they surpass the physical abilities of the demon tribe head to head.

I was confident in my speed, and the moment he easily caught up to me, I finally understood the "fear" that my friends were talking about.

"El ...... are you alive ......?"

"...... dead."

The first thing I felt when I woke up was the disconnect between my body and my mind.

My body is not tired, but I have no energy to get up (・・・・・).

I move my vision and see two of my fellow soldiers not far from me --- Kevin and Wal --- lying on the ground just like me.

"What ...... situation are you in now?"

"After all that, I passed out without even being able to touch him. You were the only one left at the end. How did it go?"

"...... shit."

"I guess it didn't work out that way."

I'm starting to remember ......!!!

I jumped at that healing wizard ...... Usato to catch him, but in the end, I couldn't even touch him and I fainted. ......!

"Is he ......?"

"There he is. ......!"

I flinch and look in the direction Kevin indicated with his chin, and there I see Usato fighting Koga in my field of vision.

<< Then counteract with a healing explosive wave! >>

What's that .......

Is that healing magic exploding......?

The exploded healing magic sends wind pressure and particles of healing magic toward us.

Holding his hand over his eyes, he sees Koga attacking Usato from over his head with claws that have been transformed into dark magic.

A silver basket hand and a black claw collide in mid-air.

Metallic clangs and a violent struggle ensues without a moment's pause.

Usato repels Koga's attack, and green magic power is contained in his arm.

Seeing the light, Koga braces himself---in the next instant, a side kick from below strikes him directly and blows his body away.

Then the shape and quality of each other's magic, or rather magic power, changed instantly, and a dizzying battle ensued.

In this instant, a number of games were played. ......?

No, my eyes can't keep up now. ......!

"Why is he so cheerful ......?"

"I don't know either. ......!

Because he was moving around so much against us just now,...... and he must have consumed a lot of magic power,.......

Is this the difference in power between them ...... and me?

"Oh no, that healing wizard is bad."

"......"

"d*mn, Wal is totally sprawling ......!!!"

Wal wasn't used to moving so much detail, so that's how fatigued he was. .......

"Oh my god, are you guys okay?"

When Kevin and I finally regained enough energy to get up, a dark-haired, red-eyed woman who had been with Hannah, the former commander of the third corps, and Usato approached us.

"...... Hanna, former commander of the Third Army?"

"I don't even have a title anymore, so Hannah is fine?　I don't even have a title anymore, so it's okay if you're Hannah.

She crouched down to check on us, then stood up and looked at Usato and Koga in dismay.

"I don't blame you since you are still at the level of being contained in the training ground,...... but you are still moving in a strange way even after looking at it again."

"Usato may say a lot of things, but we are similar, and I think he's just having fun.

Listening to their conversation, I looked at Koga and Usato again.

I thought I had improved my skills by training until this day, but it was all in my mind.

I was still not strong at all, not at all.

That frustrates me so much.

"......"

"Mr. Nair?　What's wrong?

You didn't even have to get serious with us.

Even with the handicap of applying healing magic based on the efficiency of our training, we still couldn't bring out the true spirit in them.

Did you say Elle?

"...... what?"

A dark-haired woman calls out to me.

"That thing you just saw. That was just a teaser for him, okay?"

What?

I guess he wanted to see how well you guys could do.

Kevin, who was listening, said, "You're kidding. ......

In response, I turned my head and clenched my fists as hard as I could.

"Otherwise, I wouldn't be able to pass out so fluently right now."

"What, are you threatening me?"

I'm just telling you the truth. But ...... you're right, I should warn you. You don't want to put him on the spot too much, okay?"

The dark-haired woman says mockingly, "You'll catch hell for it," and leaves with a somewhat glum Hannah.

...... is great.

So now we don't have to get serious.

Then I'll bring it out of you if I have to.

Come hell or high water, ......!　I'll get you through it!
