A Chronicle of Life in a Different World

"... not the best, but the best?

Asking about Aidan's intentions in speaking to Zilba during her return to King's Landing, Tina leaned her neck small.In front of the reels that hit the question, the fox face was somehow removed, and the fox ears on the head were twitching and the tail was shaking.

Tina was sitting in a carriage with what was commonly called a “girl's seat”, and next to Tina, Chris looked sharply at Reurus across the fox face.

"Ah, this case is obviously a failure from the Gregorians, isn't it?I wondered how that would lead to the next good. "

"... both Chris and Tina were in the tenth place as bishops, but from the other bishops, they were treated as half-persons.There's not a lot of information given... so I guess that's fine, right?

"Tina, leaking information..."

Though Chris blamed her, Tina shook her head sideways.

"When Chris was unconscious, I got help from 'Thunderbolt'.And even if it's information, Tina's guess. "

"Eh...."

Tina tried to keep talking even though Chris stopped.Having heard Tina's remarks, Chris stares at Reurus as he turns his eyes increasingly sharp.

(My sister, who hasn't seen me in a while, is talking friendly with her enemies... as a sister, I guess.)

Reurus, who guessed at Chris's mood, can only laugh bitterly when Chris turns a sharp eye.

"Maybe you guys... yeah, 'cause you won,' Tina thinks it's the next best thing."

"... because I won?

However, Tina's remarks turned Reurus into a real face with no bitter smile.Reurus leaned his neck as he thought something unexpected had appeared.

"Did I win... this fight?What the hell is that gonna be?

In this battle, Eliza, the bloodsucking species, Sarah and Neddy, the spirits, and Vanille the Firedragon, who would be the "great destiny” of the Gregorians, were among the targets, as was Reus, who slaughtered "God".If you were a Gregorian, it would be a retribution, but why would it be a second best?

"In Gregorianism, we see advanced monsters as' gods' and seek to shred the power of 'gods' by hunting them.By spreading the recognition that it is stronger than "God" and stronger than "God," we are relatively trying to put "God" down. "

Reurus nodded lightly to Tina, who repeated what she had heard before.

"Bishops are recognized as bishops by defeating advanced monsters.There were some exceptions like Rebecca, but by defeating advanced monsters seen as "gods," he tries to realize that “they are stronger than gods."Those bishops fought and lost..... "

"Ah... I see.I almost saw it. "

It was a revulsion that answered that way, but my cheeks pulled because I didn't even say I heard the trouble.

"I mean... what?I've already slaughtered God, but the Bishop's perception that they're stronger than God has defeated me... and I've become stronger against God?Is that what's good for them?

"Maybe..."

Tina nodded back when Reurus asked.

(Even if the Gregorians win, it leads to the weakening of the "God", and even if they lose, the means of confronting the "God"... will I become stronger?But there's no particular change in that....)

It may only be effective against "God," and its own strength will not change radically.

"... but guess what? Not all bishops are fighting consciously for that, right?

Regardless of Aidan, who said it was the second best, Reurus thinks Brain will be different.It's just a conjecture, but I don't think it was such a winning personality.

As far as Aidan is concerned, whether he wins or loses the battle, he thinks it will lead to “good results” as a bishop.Of course, there's no way to check with the dead.

And it was obvious that Tina was unconscious, beyond speculation.When I look at Chris, I see a pungent look back, but there is no pretense to deny it.

(There's also a pattern like Rebecca... Besides, Rebecca was just manipulating a monster comparable to an advanced one, and she didn't defeat it... I don't suppose she's drawing the blood of a leprechaun, so there's no way to treat an advanced monster?

I don't know, Reurus tilts his neck.At the same time, one question arises, and Reurus asks.

"And that reasoning tells me that Gilba is better at fighting God than I am.

The battle was won, but Reurus took it - only Rebecca can claim to have taken his life.

Winged dragons and renge were also dealt with, but not bishops.I might be treated as a monster comparable to an advanced one, but it didn't seem to be as effective as the second best.

Unlike such a revulsion, I hear Gilba has had two bishops in the past.We took Bishop Aidan and Archbishop Wyatt into custody in this fight.It was also possible that Ji-sun was referring to Gilba rather than Reurus.

"What do you think of Gilba?

"Well... judging by the signs of 'god' and sex I felt in the town of Lemona before, I can't be sure if I can win.But the bishop's story is also a conjecture, but it's also a convincing one... annoying people, whether they win or lose. "

When Reus waves to Zilba outside the carriage, Zilba returns the words as a matter of course.I was listening to the Reurus conversation without paying attention to the sound of the carriage going forward.

"Anything else come to mind?

Reurus asked while staring at Tina's eyes.I don't think Tina would dare say anything in the current situation, but I looked seriously so I could tell if she was lying.

"And then... uh... Tina..."

Tina shifts her gaze to the side to see how she takes such a realuse's gaze.The tail seemed to be moving a little faster, but Reurus didn't notice.

"I mean, Reurus, I was just listening to what I was saying... no matter how much Reurus has become stronger against God, I wonder if I have a chance to fight it again?

Eliza questions whether she was listening to Zilba as well.When he heard that, Reurus nodded.

"Tina, how's it going?Is "God" something you encounter so often?

If that's the case, it seems to be better known, but while thinking about it, Reus asks.Tina raised her eyebrows in trouble.

"I've never seen Tina in the town of Lemona.In the story I heard, "before the 'God' of that size comes out, it comes out as the 'nucleus' of the slime...."

"Ah, slime..."

It's not a self-purifying action, but it appears to emerge in another way before appearing as a 'god'.Then Reus thought Aidan and the others would die in vain.

Advanced monsters and "gods" are rarely encountered.

(... no, wait.I suppose you've encountered a few advanced monsters that you wouldn't normally encounter, and fought the "God" many times... I don't suppose they thought I'd fight them again?

From the frequency of encounters to date, the possibility came to mind, and Reurus suddenly wanted to hold his head.

"Hmm... well, I don't have enough information in return for hiding from Lord Bernard, but is this it?It's about time.... "

And when Gilba said something like that, Reurus actually held his head.

I'm afraid it's time to hear the words that follow.It was a reuse to think about whether Sarah, Eliza, or Radia would stop Gilba using the Call of Thought, but it was a delicate thing to ask if there was a reason to stop.

"I owe Tina for helping Eliza.I got the information, and I'm not going after you if you want to escape.... "

"I took refuge from Lord Bernard and healed the bishop in one crack.Isn't it a bit bigger to borrow?

"That's... that's what they say."

Indeed, Reurus nods unexpectedly.However, if you let go of the bishop's position, both Chris and Tina...

(If you're coming at me with this, I'll kill you... honestly, these two are just “children”...)

I wonder if you have the strength to be treated as a bishop, even if you are treated as a half man.Still, Chris and Tina can only be seen as children from Reurus.

Of course, if you attack me as an enemy, I will slay you without hesitation or mercy.But if they didn't attack, they didn't want to take the initiative.

"... well, that's what I thought Mr. Reurus would say.If you're going to miss it, let's take a moment to meditate. "

(Oops... I feel like Gilba-san is a little gentle...)

When Zilba's arm grabbed Chris and Tina by breaking through the carriage wall and was wary of dragging them out, Zilba's reaction was more moderate than expected.

Maybe she thought Chris and Tina were just kids, just like Reurus.

"Then, sweeten your words and let Chris and Tina leave."

"- Why don't you follow me?

He blocked Chris's words and Tina asked him to.
