Chapter 927: A Long Day in the Life of Miyama Kaito ② (1/2)

I'm not going to complain in regards to me and Eden-san going out together…… No, I am very anxious, but since the situation is already like this, I won't bother complaining now.

However, there's something else that's bothering me. That is, how long will Eden-san last?

By the time we talked about the two of us going out together, Eden-san was already in her Phase 2. From what I've experienced so far, she's at a stage where she'll probably go berserk in another 5 to 10 minutes.

If that's the case, won't Eden-san start rampaging before we reach our destination and call it a night?

As I thought about this, I looked at Eden-san…… and saw that her expression had changed to a deep smile. She's now in Phase 3. This means that she's almost at the point where she'd go on a rampage.

I reflexively tried to imbue magic power to the necklace around my neck to send a signal to Kuro, but before I could do that, Eden-san did something differently than before.

[……My apologies. Please excuse me for a moment.]

[Eh?]

After saying those few words, Eden-san disappeared and returned within a few seconds. When I tilted my head at her strange actions, Eden-san returned with a different, calmer smile on her lips.

[Thank you for your patience. Let's get going, my child.]

[……Arehh?]

Eh? Why? The deep smile on her face is gone, she isn't talking so fast, and she's calling me ”my child”…… She's back to Phase 0!?

W- What's going on here? This has never happened before…… Is it possible she could suppress her own rampages?

[……E- Eden-san? What happened just now?]

[I felt like I was going to explode with all the love I have for my child, so I created a space with a different flow of time, where I ”passed a few days” and cooled down before coming back.]

[……I- I see……]

She prepared countermeasures for her rampages!? I-  see…… Perhaps, Eden-san also knew that if she were to go out of control here, this outing would be over. That's why she restrained herself from going out of control by cooling down while she still had some reason left.

H- How should I say this…… I can see how serious Eden-san is about this outing. I can see it but……

[Ummm, Eden-san? In the first place, couldn't you just endure so as you don't ram…… explode from love?]

[That's impossible.]

[……Then, it can't be helped.]

I see, so it's fundamentally impossible for her to not rampage huh. Since an omniscient and omnipotent God asserts that it's impossible, I guess it's something that even someone omniscient and omnipotent can't do anything about.

Then, it can't be helped…… Let's give up on the idea of hoping Eden-san would go out of control. But still, I'm grateful that she's trying to control her own rampages, making me feel safer.
