Chapter 45: The Gabranth’s Roots

Compared to the time when they first met Rarashi+k, the science-like roo different about it

“W-what’s the deal with this thing?” (Hiiro)

Hiiro, looking at the strange object that was right in front of him, asked with a furrowed brow

(It’s white and small and looks like a rabbit…isn’t this?) (Hiiro)

“Oo, it’s been a while since I’ve seen shi+shou’s <spirit>>” (Arnold)

“<spirit>>? You ? ’ (Hiiro)

Hiiro involuntarily cast a suspicious gaze No matter how you looked at it, as in front of him looked exactly like the snow rabbit that children would etically, it seemed impossible not to be surprised

“More i real?” (Rarashi+k)

When Rarashi+k asked the <spirit>>, it responded in affirmation as it faintly shook its head up and down

“No hat in the world…it couldn’t be that the irregular case would actually…?” (Rarashi+k)

Rarashi+k put a hand on her chin Arnold acted as the representative of those in the dark as he spoke

“A-ano, shi+shou? What exactly…?” (Arnold)

“……………” (Rarashi+k)

“A-ano?” (Arnold)

“……………” (Rarashi+k)

“S-shi+shou…?” (Arnold)

Not matter what Arnold said, there was no response Rarashi+k just re posture as if her time had been stopped

Arnold scratched his head as he looked toward Hiiro for a response However, Hiiro just shrugged his shoulders as he leaned against a wall Arnold had no choice but to wait for Rarashi+k to break out of her trance Therefore, Arnold placed the unconscious Miur in bed

After waiting for a short ti on top of Rarashi+k’s head As if that attack sti in her brain, Rarashi+k finally redirected her gaze towards the others

“Ah, shi+shou?” (Arnold)

“………haa~” (Rarashi+k)

Rarashi+k let a about a big sigh Not knohy she displayed such a depressed attitude, Hiiro and his group looked at each other with their heads tilted to the side in confusion

“shi+shou? What in the world just happened?” (Arnold)

When Arnold asked a second tiet an explanation Further

“…The ar” (Rarashi+k)

“…hee~the army is, huh? I didn’t know that…wait a minute, S-S-S-S-SERIOUSLY!?” (Arnold)

Arnold had replied with great force However, the contents of the ansas so astonishi+ng that his brain skipped, causing his co

The King’s arht now Furthero It was a battle that would determine the fate of terful races There was no way that the ould end in only three days He had passed off Rarashi+k’s words as a joke However, she had a serious expression on her face

“Seriously My <spirit>> thoroughly investigated it” (Rarashi+k)

Saying thus, Rarashi+k placed her hand on the head of her <spirit>>

“W-wait, you say investigated…huh? You ht?” (Arnold)

“Aa” (Rarashi+k)

“The war that just started 3 days ago?” (Arnold)

“Probably” (Rarashi+k)

“Yet, the King’s ar just now?” (Arnold)

“Aa” (Rarashi+k)

“…even if we lost, isn’t that too fast? No, even if they were victorious, it would be just as unbelievable” (Arnold)

It was just as Arnold assuather the [Gabranth]’s elite and replenish their forces at the border Nunificant factor in war They were not a force that could be completely subdued within 3 days

The sa could be said for the foe [Evila] Behind their front lines was their home territory Even if the [Gabranth] had obtained victory, they would wind up having to face the full force of the [Evila] Completely invade within three days was impossible

“Eto…are you sure the report isn’t false?” (Arnold)

It was understandable for Arnold to think that However, Rarashi+k just shaked her head

“No, I asked this child to monitor the fate of the war I also ordered hi withdrew from the battlefield” (Rarashi+k)

While explaining thus, Rarashi+k pointed to a red button installed in the wall Certainly, a red button did exist there

“Then…it’s really true?” (Arnold)

“That seems to be the case If you want the details, this child can saw it all so if we listen then maybe we can understand what happened” (Rarashi+k)

“Is the King’s army already in the country?” (Arnold)

“No, they haven’t arrived yet However, we’re talking about that person so co back shouldn’t really be…” (Rarashi+k)

As the two of theht about the current situation, Hiiro, as listening silently, opened his mouth

“Oi, more importantly, what’s a <spirit>>?” (Hiiro)

No matter the circumstances, he was really the same, self-paced Hiiro

“Y-you’re unbelievable! The war just ended, you know, the war has! Instead of saying ‘more importantly’, be surprised a little, huh?” (Arnold)

Anyone would have shared Arnold’s sentiments However, Hiiro sullenly wrinkled his forehead and looked at him with displeasure

“I don’t give a damn about the war Frankly, I’m more interested about the Jelly-like fellow” (Hiiro)

(E: Punipuni is an expression that describes so to pudding or people with chubby cheeks Or at least, that’s the best explanation I can come up with)

Hiiro has met the [Pheom] before He even directly spoke with the Fairy Queen It’s precisely because of this that Hiiro held considerable interest in the existence known as SpiritsThat is why he was interested in the small existence of the <spirit>> Furthermore, he felt some sort of affinity with its shape

“Y-you really are…” (Arnold)

Although Arnold, as amazed Hiiro’s nonchalant attitude, stared at him with a half-open eyes, Rarashi+k could only look at hian to relax…

“Nahaha! You’re definitely an interesting person, boya~!” (Rarashi+k)

…she let loose a boisterous voice as she laughed
