Attendant Bishop: ”The Hero……”
The Priht As evidence, upon being exposed to the righteous prayers of our Holy Spirit, his body crumpled like a leaf and fell from the sky”
Attendant Bishop: ”What?”
The Primarch: ”Leader!”
The Leader of the Hundred Cavaliers: ”Yes, your Holiness!”
The Pri storm upon us, but was prevented by our holy prayers…… and has fallen so as our prayers continue, his strength is no more than a normal soldier…… use some of our holy muskets, and send some Cavaliers to capture him……”
Attendant Bishop: ”The Hero……”
The Pri back his head……”
Attendant Bishop: ”The Hero……”
The Primarch: ”The Hero has fallen into darkness…… he wears black armour, and considers the De on the Holy Crusaders…… With the name of the Spirit, we have bound his dark and heretical heart”
The Leader of the Hundred Cavaliers: ”Yes”
Attendant Bishop: (…… What? That's weird…… Has the Church gone insane? Is this really the right religion……? The Hero dedicated his life and his body to the salvation of the world, but we punish him And noe condemn scores of peasants as heretics……”
The Primarch: ”Hahaha…… How delicious, the power……”
Attendant Bishop: (This is scary…… The Priht, but this is scary……”
The Primarch: ”Go! Go and spread the word of the Spirit”
Attendant Bishop: ”——— I understand”
The Priht and darknesss…… I will be the last one standing, ruling the world…… my word is law…… hahahahaha!”

The Elder Sister Maid: ”This ie is……”
The Mage: ”…… a spell of scrying”
The Elder Sister Maid: ”Wh, what is that man!”
The Mage: ”……”
The Elder Sister Maid: ”No matter how I look at it, that's not a person Is that…… the De till now?”
The Mage: ”Stain”
The Elder Sister Maid: ”Eh?”
The Mage: ”…… one Tribe's mistake”
The Elder Sister Maid: ”What?”
The Mage: ”…… a long tio, the Tribe of Librarians departed for the Human World Their descendants… them”
The Elder Sister Maid: ”The…… Tribe of Librarians? So humans descend from that Tribe?”
The Mage: ”…… I acknowledge the possibility Based on nuh However, I cannot verify this”
The Elder Sister Maid: ”That's……”
The Mage: ”That is one side to being the Hero and the De They cannot open their eyes”
The Elder Sister Maid: ”……”
The Mage: ”…… To replace the crookedness, corruption, and sloth of huoodwill To arrive at this, requires the inevitability of revolution The results of this, are what the Hero and the De about”
The Elder Sister Maid: ”That's e cannot take a single step back This would be death It would mean corruption They can't possibly live for corruption”
The Mage: ”……”
The Elder Sister Maid: ”A?”
The Mage: ”…… Hypothetical blue organic light e diodes”
The Elder Sister Maid: ”What?”
The Mage: ”…… Eternal life, and eternal death, are both death In other words, they stop Only flickering is In other words, by the per”
The Elder Sister Maid: ”I do not understand But !? Or the Hero!?”
The Mage: ”The De”
The Elder Sister Maid: ”What are you doing You have to help them?”
The Mage stops
The Elder Sister Maid: ”Why have you stopped?”
The Mage: ”I cannot go further”
The Elder Sister Maid: ”!”
The Mage: ”The Hero has bet everything He intends to pay the ultio You should search for a way back I will fix this That is in with Probability of zero Even if the De dies, even if the Hero dies, the probability is still zero
Those two answered with a ser Thus they will continue to live No, they will be reborn even if they die Even to that extent It was iraveyard With the Hero and the De of one life will bridge the skies This is the Tower of Heaven The death of one will trigger in the other the seal of that ancient spell, ”the Canticle of Fairies”, imprinted with the s This will be the final scene of the end And yet, those till probably reject that ending”
The Mage: ”To begin with, it was a wager that required the assembly of five or six miracles That is why I cannot move Got it? The Hero expects a miracle from me He needs a miracle ”Only you can do it,” he said! That is why, Elder Sister Maid, you too cannot flee fro in miracles The two of them said so, and so I believe it But that is just such a ridiculous state to need some unknown miracle from somewhere to save them!”
The Elder Sister Maid: ”The De said that?”
The Mage: ”She did”
The Elder Sister Maid: ”I see Alright then”
The Mage: ”……”
The Elder Sister Maid: ”If the De said it, then I understand As a person who does not believe in miracles, she would be the kind of person to joke about it She ht have hoped to keep it in her heart, but it's surely not so she would say out loud She must mean it then”
The Mage: ”……”
The Elder Sister Maid: ”Let's believe in the De to help her make a miracle happen”
