Chapter 74 Im About to Know About Lilia-sans Past (1/2)

It was a quiet night, in a room in a large wooden inn. I was lying on my bed in the room assigned to me, thinking.

I guess that’s to be expected, but Lilia-san and the others were still acting strange at dinner.

On the surface, they were acting like normal, but from the emotions read by Sympathy Magic, I could feel quiet determination from Lilia-san and Lunamaria-san, and mixed emotions from Sieg-san.

It seems that Rei-san and Fia-san will also participate in the hunting tournament, but the two of them also have something in their mind, and I’m feeling something’s out of place behind their cheerful appearance.

I’m sure the reason for that is due to the reward for this tournament…… The Fruit of the World Tree.

A mysterious fruit that is said to heal all wounds, there must be something big behind why they reacted like that to that fruit.

Whatever those reasons are….. I may be curious about it and I’d also like to know, but I don’t think it’s a good topic to barge myself in, since I’ve only known her for a month or so.

That said, I don’t think I’ll get an answer if I’m just thinking about it by myself like this.

(Should I tell you about it?)

As I agonize over my unanswered questions, a voice echoes in my head.

……I appreciate the thought, but I think it would be unfair to ask Shiro-san that, but I’m thankful for your concern.

(I see. By the way, Kaito-san. Please hold out your palms up and in front of you.)

When Shiro-san offered to give me the answer, I gently rejected it.

Thereupon, Shiro-san doesn’t seem particularly bothered as she quickly changed the subject.

My palms up and in front of me? I wonder why?

I didn’t really understand why, but I followed her words and held out my palms up and in front of me, and after my palm momentarily lit up, a small white ball about 1cm in diameter appeared.

(I’m giving this to you.)

What is this? It just looks like a white marble to me, but since it was Shiro-san who gave it to me, is it something special?

Or rather, why is she giving this to me now?

(Sorry, it’s late, but I’ve decided that our previous meeting in the temple was an event. So, this is my present.)

……Shiro-san. You too huh…… I mean, I should have expected it huh. Shiro-san was the one who taught Kuro those strange information after all.

W- Well, putting that aside, what is this?

(A magic crystal.)

It seems that this orb is a magic crystal.

Mhmm, I’m honestly happy to hear that. I’ve been getting used to magic lately, and although I’m still not able to create my own magic techniques, I’ve been able to use the magic that Kuro taught me without any problem.

So, I think it’s really good timing since I wanted to make a simple magic tool on my own as well.

The white color means that the magic crystal isn’t that pure, but since I’m still starting out, t’s probably better to just use this level of purity. I’ll gratefully use this.

(I’m glad that you like it. Well then, I’ll be off.)

It seems that as she talked to me so that she could give me this, Shiro-san stopped our conversation right there.

Thanking Shiro-san in my heart, I put the magic crystal I received in the magic box.

(Just doing it with Kuro is unfair, so please go on a date with me next time.)

……Huh? What the, Shiro-san? What are you suddenly saying…… Wouldn’t having a date with the God of Creation, Shiro-san be something really outrageous for me to do?

I asked her back, surprised at the words she said in the end…… but she’s not replying anymore.

When Shallow Vernal finished her conversation with Kaito in the hanging garden in the Garden Realm, Chronois, who happened to visit the hanging garden on her errand and was waiting for Kaito and Shallow Vernal to finish their conversation, approached.

[Shallow Vernal-sama. May I ask what you talked about with Miyama?]

[We had an event, so I gave him a present.]

[A present……? Miyama is fortunate to receive this from Shallow Vernal-sama. If you don’t mind, may I ask what it is?]

[A magic crystal.]

[Hoohhh, that is…… And how pure is it?]

When Shallow Vernal said that she had given Kaito a present, Chronois was quite surprised, and asked her what her present is, to which Shallow Vernal simply replied.

[I dunno?]

[……W- Why did you tilt your head in that question?]

[That’s something I “created”, so that one doesn’t have the concept of purity.]

[……S- Something you created? U- Ummm, what kind of magic crystal is that……]

When she heard Shallow Vernal saying that it was “created”, she understood that she created a magic crystal that’s different from the ones currently existing in the world, so Chronois was really anxious when she asked.

[……………..]

[Ummm, Shallow Vernal-sama?]

However, Shallow Vernal didn’t respond to her words, ignoring Chronois, a table and chairs appeared before she started to drink tea.

[With that item, “he won’t die”.]
