A Chronicle of Life in a Different World

Zilba called out to Reurus, and suddenly he was alert.

You've been looking all over for me? What the hell is Jilba-san talking about...? Is there only one thing I can do?)

Reurus thinks there's only one thing we can do, such as Zilba calling at this time.

Probably because Sarah's information was leaked from the Spirits - rather, I'm worried about what happened if I had to do something else.

Gilba walked out thinking about it because it wasn't like talking about it in a crowded place. Reurus follows Zilba and chases her back.

Zilba then walked down the alley off the main street. Though houses are lined up around you, there is no fear that others will hear you whisper.

"I think we can talk without anyone asking us... no sign of anyone from any of the homes around us."

(I'm sure you're out on a farm trip, but I'm scared to hear that from Jilba-san....)

Hearing Zilba's remarks, Reurus heightened his vigilance a little. Of course, there's no need for vigilance.

"I asked you at home earlier, but I heard you had a face at Calvin's... I'm glad you didn't make a mistake."

That's what Jilba said before we talked. Apparently, they headed to Reurus' house at first.

"... about Sarah, right?

"Hmm...."

When Reurus asked for confirmation, Gilba nodded heavily. And when I took the necklace engraved with the relief of the Great Spirit Comona, which was always hanging from my neck, I lowered my head to regret it from the bottom.

"Natalia told me that if I wanted to apologize, I would have to wait because I would have talked to her“ beforehand ".... I heard you talk to me last night, so it's up to me to apologize in the morning."

"Apologize... please raise your head. Didn't Gilba tell you anything? Besides, Sarah and Neddy are going to be more troublesome than me....."

As for Reurus, there is no earliest sense of repudiation when it comes to spiritualism. Gilba took care of him, and his doctrine wasn't as messy as Gregorianism.

When I first learned of the existence of spiritualism, I wanted to refrain from engaging in religion. As residents of the abandoned city of Laval, I didn't want to be a part of the “outside forces.”

But I can't stay as early as I can. Natalia has also told me that it is in danger without the help of Spiritualism, regardless of the will of Reurus.

Or maybe it would be better to end the "contract" with Sarah and stay away from Neddy, but Reurus didn't have the hair to choose such an option.

"I met Sarah and Neddy first to apologize, but if Mr. Reurus doesn't care, they don't care either...."

Gilba raised her head and raised her eyebrows in trouble, but she was troubled to react as a revulsion.

There is no way that Gilba will act against Sarah and Neddy's Spirit.

I'm dating enough to be able to say that, and if that happens, I'll “drop it” on my own.

"Then there's nothing I can tell you. Besides, I heard from you, you will accompany me to King's Landing, right?

"Yeah... I don't know how much I can help you, but I'll do my best."

"... it's good enough.

To Gilba, who seemed clearly motivated, Reurus prompted restraint. However, it is unclear how effective Gilba is on the opponent.

"If only Estelle could accompany me... you shouldn't have left the children behind, and I hope you'll be patient with me."

Gilba says so, but there is no dissatisfaction with Reurus. There is a difference between the positions of spiritual teachers and spirituals, but given the richness and visibility of Zilba's experience, there seems to be no dissatisfaction.

"I'm counting on you... well, just in time. I wanted to ask Gilba something."

Gilba looks depressed compared to normal just because the Spirit is entangled, but Reus changes the subject so as to distract his consciousness.

"Anything you want to ask me... yes, I'll answer anything I can."

"Then sweeten your words... Spiritualism is all about spirituality, right?

As far as the subject of faith is concerned, I wonder if you are familiar with the "contract" that was discussed last night. That's what Reurus thinks.

"I've heard from you, but I was wondering if Neddy and I could make a" contract "... if we made a" contract "with multiple spirits, would it have any negative impact?

"A 'contract' with multiple spirits..."

In response to Reurus's query, Gilba narrowed her eyes to explore her memory. And when I thought I'd been silent for nearly ten seconds, I shook my head with regret.

"I really don't remember hearing that... it's important just to say that I can actually meet the Spirit Master. Besides, like Mr. Reurus, we always spend time together by" signing a contract "... what happens when it becomes a" contract "with multiple spirits..."

That said, Zilba lowered her head small. Apparently, you can't answer something you can't even predict.

"No, don't worry. I understand that spirits are rare."

The presence of two spirits beside Sarah and Neddy is a miracle in itself.

However, if Natalia hadn't pointed it out last night, I doubt Reurus would have been aware of the area.

"In that case, you might want to ask the spirituals at the church in King's City.” If you're talking about Reurus, who has a contract with Sarah, they'll be happy to hear about it. "

"I see... by the way, is it impossible to ask Esther to summon Komona-sama?

The Great Spirit Comona might know something. When Reurus asked, Gilba shook her head sideways.

"Esther's power is very difficult to use actively... and you used it once in the house of the Vicomte de Velg, right? If you're in imminent danger, you may be able to help, but in the present situation, magic is..."

That's how Zilba clouds her expression. Apparently, there are conditions to borrow Commona's help.

(I mean, I can't help asking the Spirit himself... if he's not as long as Vanille.)

Even Sarah and Neddy are divided on whether or not to enter into a "contract." If you don't know whether there have been "contracts" with multiple spirits in the past, and if you were there, you can't use it as a reference if you don't know what happened.

"Really... for now, I've received Zilba's apology, so don't worry about it anymore. Sarah and Neddy didn't blame Gilba, did they? Then I can't say anything."

"... thank you."

No information was available on "contracts" with multiple spirits, but it turns out that “even Jilba doesn't know.” This is also one piece of information.

(I don't suppose any other spirituals know that even Jilba doesn't know... is there someone familiar with the Church of King's City, as Jilba says?

There must be some basis for Zilba to recommend it. Reurus, who thinks so, peeks into his interest.

"By the way, what kind of people are there in the church in King's Landing? If you had a church in King's Landing, would you still have a spiritual teacher?

In words, Gilba seems to be angry, but if it is a Gregorian analogy, is there such a thing as an archbishop?

In that case, he may not be a spiritual teacher who received the "protection" of the spirits like Esther, but he may be influential like Gilba, and he may also be a person who has the political strength to maintain and operate the church in King's City.

It was a Reurus that I asked because I thought so, but for some reason I couldn't hear Gilba's expression.

"Indeed, there are spiritual teachers in King's Landing. For spirituals living in this country, the church in King's Landing is like a“ hub. "

"... that's the way you say it, right? Maybe you're drowning in a power struggle...."

And Zilba said unto him, Hear ye in the church of the kingdom, and behind-the-scenes is the number of conspiracies swirling?

Spiritualism divides religion from Gregorianism in the continent of Caldivia. Spiritualism permeates perfectly in Mataroi, where Reurus lives, but it seems unlikely that a church will be established in the king's capital of Mataroi.

No matter how much Spiritualism has pastoral doctrines, it is not strange that one or two, or ten or twenty, of the dark places are behind it when it comes to running a huge religion.

"It's not like that...."

Gilba denies any doubts about Reurus. However, as always, my teeth were cut badly, and it seemed like I was saying something.

"If you have something, it would be helpful if you could tell me..."

The anxiety swells up just because “um” Zilba is starving. Natalia and Gilba accompanied him on a leisurely side of the Reurus, but perhaps the King's Capital is a kind of demon.

"No, it's really not dangerous. However, this time, I will accompany you to King's Landing on my own, but the situation surrounding the children is not enough... it would have been better if Esther, a spiritual teacher, had accompanied you..."

"... you don't think Estelle is convenient?

It really doesn't look like Jilba.

Gilba, whose heart felt that way about Reurus, eventually sighed a little.

"Because it involves Esther's“ personal circumstances ”, I can't answer. However, I think if I go to King's Landing and actually meet him, I'll soon know one thing..."

After that, Gilba makes a serious face.

"The spiritual teacher who attends the church in King's Landing will be Esther's sister."

--New challenges piled up.

There was no basis, but it was a revulsion that I somehow thought so.
