As the strongest witch in history, I somehow ended up being feared so much that I’m all alone. So, I figured I’d buy a cute girl slave and ask her for all kinds of things
In front of my eyes, in front of my very eyes, what on earth had just happened?
Processing and accepting that reality was quite difficult.
“N-, What did you do…?”
The monster I had been fighting just moments ago.
It vanished the instant it was targeted by the killing intent from Tia, who stood behind me.
“Uh, uh…”
After healing my wounds with a recovery spell, I look down at Tia, who had somehow lost consciousness without me noticing, feeling utterly perplexed.
“Hnn… hnn… hnn…”
“I really don’t understand.”
I truly have no idea what just happened.
It’s completely incomprehensible.
Just from Tia directing her killing intent, the monster that was right in front of me disappeared. The opponent I thought would give me a bit of trouble was wiped out in an instant — thanks to the magic I instinctively activated. If I hadn’t used the spell to suppress Tia’s unleashed power, the damage could have extended across this entire area.
“W-, Where did such power come from?”
That power… though I shouldn’t be the one to say this, it felt like something beyond human understanding.
The strength she displayed was on par with or even surpassed the magic I use.
“T-, Should I look into Tia’s origins a little more…?”
Seeing what just unfolded, I can’t simply do nothing.
I resolve to investigate Tia’s background.
“But first things first, maybe I should start with the aftermath?”
Still, before I can actually act on it, there are other things I need to take care of.
“Ugh, ugh…”
The child Tia was holding, who had wandered out of the orphanage, is now unconscious from the aftershock of Tia’s power.
It wasn’t physical damage per se, but the sheer pressure of her unleashed energy caused them to faint out of sheer terror.
“Uh, uh… I need to explain this to everyone else.”
First, I need to explain things to Sister and the others, since I had rushed out all of a sudden.
And I also need to explain this whole commotion to the knights of this country who’ve gathered after hearing the ruckus… I have to, right?
“T-, Tiaaaaaaaaa!”
Wh-, what should I do?
I don’t have the confidence to handle this situation smoothly.
Utterly pathetic, I call out Tia’s name as I collapse in despair.
