Isekai Maou to Shoukan Shoujo Dorei Majutsu

「This is, only a special occasion, got it?」

「U, un, I know -ssu. Um......Why, were you there?」

「......It was the result of searching for you. It’s only natural.」

「For me!? But, isn’t it the middle of the victory celebration right now......?」

──It’s because food wouldn’t pass through my throat being in a seat as conspicuous as that.

Not knowing how she should take Diablo’s silence, Horun shed tears.

「I, I......didn’t prove useful at all -ssu. That’s why, I thought that I shouldn’t be allowed on that seat......」

「Didn’t prove useful? So what?」

「Eh?」

「Did someone tell you to leave?」

「......I wasn’t told that -ssu.」

「In that case, do you want to leave?」

「Th, there’s no way I would -ssu, but......Someone that just drags everyone down, it’s normal that a party wouldn’t need them -ssu.」

「Something like the values of other groups don’t matter. No one told you to leave. You aren’t thinking that you want to leave. In that case, there is no need for you to leave. Am I mistaken somewhere?」

Horun was trembling on Diablo’s back.

*Pota pota* Transparent drops spilled over and fell.

She started sobbing.

「You aren’t......wrong -ssu. I ......I......want to be, together with everyone -ssu......」

Diablo opened the inn’s door.

「In that case, stay together with us for as much as you like. There is no one that would drive you out.」
