Chapter 104 – Dain Adamas’ Mana… Disappeared?

When Stay finished its opening and was waiting for customers who did not show up, May Ruina and Mir Ryuin finished their business and were returning to ‘Stay this place’.

Since they were two people who changed their appearances using transformation magic, no one recognized them even when they walked confidently down the street.

The calm and ordinary happiness of daily life that Stay pursues has already seeped into the two people who are the furthest from the word ordinary in the world.

Therefore, the two chose to just walk normally, even though it was a distance they could have reached in an instant if they used flying magic, and the conversation blossomed with complaints about what had happened this morning.

“Ha······. It’s a life where even just one month off is impossible. “Is this why the life of a celebrity is so difficult?”

“I usually go into hiding every day, but I ended up getting involved with May Rui and you for no reason, so it got annoying. “I wanted to enjoy a calm daily life with Stay.”

“Is it the same for me? And why is it my fault! “Don’t blame others!”

“······Tsk. Well, I still had to show her face once.”

“That is correct. There will probably be a corrected report by tomorrow. ‘Saints Mei Ruina and Mir Liuin are entering a period of rest.'”

“I went so far as to save the world, so no one will think it’s strange if I take a break. “He even spoke directly in front of reporters to get their attention, so he’s not afraid and no one will come after him.”

What the two had to do since they couldn’t even attend the opening ceremony of Stay’s café was a press conference.

As the two people’s sudden disappearance, which lasted for about a month, began to spark all sorts of rumors, they decided that if they continued like this, there would be people looking after them, and naturally, this could spark a firestorm for Stay as well, so they held a press conference.

If reporters come to Stay, who treated the two people, and the peaceful daily life that he cherishes so much is disrupted, the fallout will be directed at the cause of the situation.

If something like that were to happen, there was a very high chance that it wouldn’t end in just being hated, so for the two, the press conference was something they had to do at all costs to prevent the worst.

“I said I would be taking a break for at least a year, so in the meantime, I can enjoy my daily life with Stay in peace.”

“But Mei Rui and you, can you take a break for that long? It’s normal for me to stay in the magic tower and do research, but come out occasionally, so taking a break for a year isn’t that strange, but you’re different. “If you remain complacent like that, won’t you end up being pushed out of the Vatican’s power struggle?”

“I never thought the day would come when I would hear with my own ears that Mir Ryuin worries about others. This is something I will have to live to see for a long time. Well, I didn’t live that long. Well, there is no need to keep it in check like that. As I said before, I am one of the main characters who saved the world, right? “My position won’t diminish even if I just take a year off.”

“······Tsk.”

“So, Mr. Mir Ryuin, is it okay if you take a break from your magic studies? While attacking the last gate, you collected a lot of samples of new demon beasts and also mined a lot of EX-class magic stones that have never been seen in the world. “The only person in the world who can do that research is Mir Ryuin. Isn’t that a global loss?”

“Ha, as you said, it’s only one year. Just because you take a break for a year doesn’t mean the samples and magic stones disappear. “I’ve even used a time freeze spell to make sure it’s stored, so you don’t have to worry.”

“······Chit.”

The checks on each other, which has now become a part of our daily lives, continued as we walked down the road.

However, these two people knew better than anyone else that even if they tried to keep the opponent in check in this way, they would not be able to kick the opponent out.

Therefore, Mei Ruina decided to change the topic to end this pointless argument.

“By the way, now that I think about it, Mr. Dain Adamas, why are you suddenly targeting so many S-class gates? “You don’t need to build up fame to solidify your position within the Vatican like I do, and you don’t need to secure materials for research like Mir Liuin.”

Dain Adamas was chosen as the new topic.

It was about her, an example of a hero, who, unlike the two who went into hiding without a word, attacked all S-class gates around the world as soon as she woke up.

Of course, for the two of them, he was just a person of interest who had to be kept in check so as not to lose their stay.

“Well… I don’t know, that’s it. Because he is just a human being who lives intoxicated with his own power. “Isn’t he going on a rampage to erase the helplessness he felt when he was a vegetable?”

Mir Ryuin also knew that her checks on each other were meaningless, so she agreed to change the topic with May Ruina and continued her story about her.

“It’s been going on for as long as a month. Other large guilds are expressing deep regret? They say they are taking all their jobs.”

“Okay? I’m not particularly interested in that. Even Dain Adamas won’t be interested. In the first place, what could other guilds do if they felt deep regret? The opponent is Dain Adamas. Unless it’s me, you… And that guy who lives in the back world with the guy in fourth place, he wouldn’t even be able to attract attention.”

“······Hmm, I see. What! “It’s nice because I have one less person to worry about!”

“That’s right. “If Dain Adamas was here, it would have been a lot of trouble.”

“That’s right! What can I say about Dain Adamas? Because he has no hesitation in his actions. If you had come here looking for Mr. Stay like us, it would have already been four months.”

“I agree. Dyne Adamas is like a natural disaster in the shape of a human, so even if we prepare for it, it still feels like it’s not enough… Huh?”

While the story about Dain Adamas was blossoming, the magic circle in Mir Ryuin’s head began to sound an alarm.

The emergency alarm magic installed in ‘Stay this place’ without Stay’s knowledge was activated.

This magic was a designated magic that was activated only when a gate occurred or a specific person approached, and in this case it was the latter.

“Mr. Mir Ryuin? Why are you suddenly like that…”

“I’m here.”

“You came? Hot?! Seriously…?!”

“Dain Adamas has arrived!”

Dine Adamas, which the couple had been using as a snack to add flavor to their peaceful daily lives, had appeared at Stay’s café.

The timing of their appearance was so absurdly perfect that the two people froze for a moment and could do nothing but exchange glances.

However, Mir Ryuin realized that nothing would happen if he stayed still for a while, so he quickly snapped his fingers and surrounded himself and May Ruina with the magic of invisibility.

Wow-

“Come on, let’s go quickly. Before that crazy bitch does something to Stay!”

“Yes! Let’s go!”

At the same time, the two raced towards ‘Stay this place’ at the maximum speed they could achieve.

※

The two arrived at ‘Stay this place’ about a minute after they started running, but even after arriving, they couldn’t bring themselves to enter.

In the worst case scenario, the opponent who had to be subdued was Adamas, the strongest human being, but there was a more important reason than that.

That’s right.

“If Dain Adamas sees us, he will be revealed right away.”

“But it’s not an opponent you can defeat before you even look at it! “We both have to do our best to catch that person!”

This was because Mir Ryuin’s transformation magic was useless in front of Dain Adamas.

Dain Adamas was one of the first people in the world who lived the most miserable life.

Because they are the strongest, they don’t pay attention to what others think, so as soon as they see the two people hiding their identities using transformation magic, they think, ‘Mir Ryuin? May Ruina? It was clear that people would say, ‘Why are you both like this?’

Even though the two people arrived at the café in a truly stranded situation, they couldn’t think of a suitable way to deal with it, so they just kept talking and spying on the situation inside.

“Ugh, what if Dain Adamas eventually turns around and kidnaps Stay? You haven’t been able to take Stay C ingredients for a month! In that state, if you meet the real Mr. Stay, it’s natural for you to lose control and become a beast! “He’s already a beast!”

“But there is no way. Even if we go in now to subdue Dain Adamas, our identities will be revealed due to Dain Adamas’ tactful words, and if that happens, it will be the end for both of us. “I can no longer stay by Stay’s side through legal means.”

“Keuuuuuwwwww it can’t be helped now that it’s like this. When Dain Adamas kidnaps Stay, we have no choice but to subdue Dain Adamas and take Stay together…”

“Sounds that make sense…! Oh, no. Yes, May Ruina. You might be right. Anyway, once Dain Adamas appears, Stay will be kidnapped, and if that happens, our peaceful daily life will also be destroyed. If my daily life is destroyed like that and my stay is taken away, then my daily life is destroyed, and I have the stay… Ah, no, it’s right that we have it.”

In the end, the two people, who entered a desperate situation, were stranded right in front of the café and plotted a dangerous plan that would freak out if Stay heard.

“Ha, we ended up forming a team like this. Let’s assume it’s a temporary alliance.”

“Ok, fine. I don’t feel like it, but I have no choice if it’s for a better future.”

In this way, the most dangerous temporary alliance in the world was formed, and Dain Adamas was preparing a surprise attack for the moment when he couldn’t stand it and knocked out the resistant Stay.

Drop.

“······Huh?”

“What’s wrong?”

“Dain Adamas’s mana… Disappeared?”

Something ridiculous happened inside the café.
