Chapter 154 (1/2)

Chapter 154

The rain that had fallen continuously until dawn rises like smoke

The reflection of light against the droplets that accumulated on the lawn’s trees sparkle and dazzle the eyes

The birds that had taken shelter froood feelingafter these many days

「Haa――」

I blow out a sharp breath, as if passing a thread through a needle

I release a palh the trunk of a tree

The soundless ih the forest, the tree’s leaves cried vigorously

I’m soaked from my head down

「……It’s the bath after this I suppose」

Daily training is indispensable

It’s not the case that I was being negligent but, it seems best to think that dimensional movement isn’t my exclusive hidden technique

Having my own hand cut off for example, I almost fainted didn’t I

Even thinking back to it now makes me shudder

「……」

I shake my left hand

Un, no problem

Maa as a countermeasure, it’d be better to always be in aIona

Just when I ood if I don’t materialize so, I have to be cautious of counters there

However, I can’t rule out the possibility that that person will co

If it becomes as such, it will be a test of patience at that point

The one who’s feelings don’t bend until the end in

「Fuu」

I do a roundhouse kick with ertips and cut apart the falling raindrops

I blow offmy body

「Seiyaa!」

I course lightning through

Learned directly froic powerversion!

My ad so I have quite an interest in what the ice h don’t I

That’s right, I’ll be sure to have Silvi-chan ic

「――Those are good ician, aren’t they」

I’d noticed it a bit ago but, there’s a gallery

「Will oneechan also, move your body? Wapuu」

My head was covered by a towel

Take a breather is it

「You should stop for nowYou don’t want to hinder the e training would be better」

「Is it that sort of thing?」

My head is rubbed dry

By the way it’s a rubbing style that would ry if she saw it

I don’t want to lose, this wildness

「I’, that sensation」

Apparently oneechan somehow arrived at the pinnacle of swordsmanshi+p, on the battlefield

She can’t quite recall it but, I suppose that’s up to the person in question’s sense now

「……Does, your eye not hurt?」

「Aah, there’s no pain you knowFufu, I wonder if there’s a side benefit because Alice is being meek?」

「You intend to trauilt do you」

I’m troubled even if you push your chest out at me with a proud face

「Setting that aside, have you heard anything, about Sitra’s matter?」

Given that shi+on-san directly showedlike she’ll be put to death as a result

「No, not at this pointTo be sure a council of princes should have gathered a few days ago so, the topic should have been brought up though」

Because we have had no contact from Kran so far

Mystery

「Is that so, it’d be good if the ith the coh」

「It would wouldn’t it……」

Since the issue with the beast

「Iona is……I believe she isn’t cooperating with the co at this point but」

「Fuーn? I only heard froerous doesn’t she? That child」

That oes to chat with shi+on-san in places that I don’t know doesn’t he

……I’m extremely worried

「Nn? On that note, Solt-san is?」

Lately, I haven’t seen his figure here at all?

「Solt has returned to his country you knowHe said, he wanted to offer flowers in front of a grave you see」

「Ah――」

I, see……Libra was defeated

That was a critical juncture to him,

「……If he’d told me, then I also could do that much」

Unfriendly bastard

But even if Libra was defeated, e

Perhaps I should go see the logic of the world

I suppose that’s the exact thing that’s the truth Libra was trying to bring to light though

I don’t feel anything like trying to destroy that

Rather I even feel that no one should touch that

I suppose it’s that sort of thing

As such, I feel I should confirm it before Iona

「――Ojousama」

This ti over

「Ilya, what is the matter?」

「The trees are in the way so it can’t be seen from here, if you would come this way!」

I exchange glances with shi+on-san

I wonder what it is?

Urged on, I and shi+on-san went out to the mansion’s plaza with a flower bed around it

It’s the place with the greatest sense of liberation on the grounds so, Rin-chan and Kyuu are often running around here

The mansion itself is elevated so, this is also the ideal place to look into the distance

I lost my words, at the northern sky as seen from there

「…………What, is that」

The northern sky is――being consumed by darkness

It’s not a normal situation

That’s the direction of the town of Rinal

「Oneechan!」

「Calm down Alice, that’s further away than the town of RinalProbably……it’s on the other side of the deep green forest where the fairy village is believed to be」

「It is as stated, and so that’s close to the dragon’s villageIt is also the location of my hometown」

Perhaps she no longer had any intention like hiding anything, Ilya readily spoke of the reality

「What could be happening……do you know?」

「……If it accords with prophecy, that dark sky is……Proof of the resurrection of Progenitor Dragon Diadorsama」

「――That’s a name I’ve heard isn’t it」

Closing one eye, the one walking over with her shoulders slumped as if to say yare yare is Eclair

Everyone of theup at the sky

Nay, I suppose it’s becohout the country

「Therevived in Sacrareat many lives」

Eclair forcibly, shut her mouth

「……Could it be, that this is also so?」

「Thinking back to her behavior up until now, that conclusion can be reached」

Just what did she want to do?

Is this what you wanted, Libra?

The revival of the progenitor dragon?

The birth of the Iona who you entrusted the slaying of the Gods?

「……Surely the answer, isn’t anywhere except in that place is it」

「Let’s go then」

Going of on a short walk or such, shi+on-san gave her confirhtheartedness

「I as well, as ojousama’s shi+eld」

Ilya agreed like alhile lowering her eyes

「Eclair is, ihtIt really would be pitiable for Luht」

Because Eclair is a mother-san isn’t she!

「Eclair, I’m sorry I can’t be at your side for youLuminchan’s matter, and Silvi’s matter, please handle them for me」

With this Eclair will give that which is Silvi lots of affection, like an adoring parent

Leave whose child it is aside on this occasion leave it aside

「Please leave it to yFor this child as well, please give us world peace okay? World first ician-sama」

Fufu, I end up laughing as such

「That’s right, the strongest desires peace」

It’s a tradition since the first generation

Doing as such, is this ti to be 3 people?

Overcoreen forest with 3 people and, confront the most evil God-sama like existence is it

I have to keep it together don’t I

It’s scary for souardian, to take the helm within darkness without emotional support

「――Ojousae came in just nowIt states that, it is desired that you co imprisoned as soon as you can」

「? Sitrsan’s?」

Ilya is apparently receiving reports from the maid-sans

「Hai, according to Krancescsama, there is an important conversation and――」

◇■◇■◇

The surroundings are encircled by a river, that s back recollections of Wilton

Even when i the saintess a prison for criminals isn’t used

While calling it an enee of the commonwealth

Paying meticulous care to the treatment of prisoners of war under international law is standard across all countries

「Alice, it is good of you to come」

「Welcome, ufufu」

I’ with the mountain of documents that had piled up on her desk
