"Just loosen the thread a little! I'll take this fish off the pillar!

"Wow, I get it!

Observe Dahlia diving underwater again from the transparent floor.

The body length of Akamambo is estimated to be 90 centimeters even if it is small. It seems difficult to move this in Dahlia's body even when adding that it is underwater.

Well... in fact, I can use magic and everything, so I finish the work easily.

I was watching, and I give instructions to Reyce instead of Dahlia in the water.

"Reis, start rolling. Though I think it's heavy because it's a pretty big fish."

"Okay!... Is this really off? I can't wrap it up at all......"

"Just slow down, slow down. I'll have the net ready by now."

"Lace Lace, I'm probably surprised. It's like a monster fish."

"Demons...... that's kinda scary......"

As such, the reel gradually winds up and its giant emerges from under the terrace.

Exactly Race also screams at the creepy giant that abruptly manifests itself in a completely black stained ocean.

"Reis, we're almost there. We're almost there."

"... Kai-kun, I don't think I'm going into that net"

"... Indeed. Then I'll hook you up, just try harder."

After a bad fight, he finally succeeds in hanging a big hook in the mouth of the fish.

Rayce pulled it off so hard that he put the giant on the terrace.

... That's big. Ninety or a hundred overs, and quite a few fish species in height.

This impact, wouldn't it be more than a kaziki if I did poorly?

"Phew, that's a strange shape of fish... spotted patterns and red muscles... it's really like a demon"

"Hey Kaivon, is this Mambo or what?

"Well, his name is Akamambo, and he's not exactly one of the Mambo guys."

"... weird face. Are you sure you want to eat this?

"Huh!? Can you eat this!?

"Of course. And... maybe Leis would be happy."

Mr. Akamambo with a bitchy twat. You didn't expect me to eat it, or Reis was secretly trying to give it back to the ocean, but I wait for it and punch him in the head again with a gut.

Oh, it's not Lace's, is it? Akamambo's head.

"Come on! That weighs a lot. This guy. I need you to clear the slab."

"Aye. Seriously, can you eat that? I don't know, fish like that."

"Well, look. You'll be absolutely amazed."

Quickly put the knife in a giant that spreads over a docin and a large slab.

I love this moment when you put a knife in your big body first. Five slices of T-shape are placed in the body to be lowered like leeches and calais first, and the body on the back side is removed first.

"Look at this body, Rayce. Don't you recognize me?

"This is...! Are you kidding me? It's tuna!?

"Yeah, it actually looks just like it. They taste alike and they're delicious."

Its peeling body is a reddish flesh color that at first glance only looks tuna.

Then remove the belly, cheeks, part of the head and the edible area one after the other and stack them up.

This fish, which is more varied in flesh and taste than real tuna when poorly done, was preceded at one time by bad images like 'tuna fake' and 'substitute fish', but was now beginning to be reviewed as an ingredient, so much so that some stores treat it as a luxury fish on the contrary.

Especially since I can get a lot of parts that look like big trolls, I can't stop grilling this guy.

"Look, there's only so many places you can eat, and you can take a lot of big trout, rare parts called tuna. It looks so delicious in the back, doesn't it?

"Ha, yes... I can't believe you caught such a nice fish..."

"Sounds delicious... broil this white spot for me..."

"Hey, this is good. It would be nice if you could catch and distribute more."

The three of them share their thoughts in front of the slab as they let their faces melt inadvertently.

I wanted to see this face. I wouldn't have guessed from that look that I could take a ton of these treats.

Thus, at a time when everyone's hungry stomach had reached its peak, he made dinner using this acamambo and rasp.

For breakfast the next morning, I served a skewer grill made with a large Akamambo trout and a sandwich sandwiched with Picata as well, but it was still very popular with everyone, among them Reyce was about to start removing the fishing rod again as soon as she finished eating.

but today I have to ask a favor from my lord, Mr Cowen.

I mean, we're headed to the research facility where Amami and the others were born.

"Did that happen... I can't believe the seal was already broken..."

"... but it's crazy. I knew it. I know better myself because I'm the man who was entrusted with the seal. Even if it was split and sealed, it wouldn't be easy to unseal it. Not to mention, those liberators must have been hit by Cotempan by Kai-kun..."

"Me and Dahlia have the same idea about that. I feel like I'm making fun of something."

For example, if the lord is deceiving the time of his liberation.

It was the border town of Cinderella that Masato and the others met us. From that place, I say we can go directly to this territory without going through the Mass Rabbit.

So they've already released the seal here and then headed to Cinderella?

I tried to convey the idea to Daria, but it was also already denied.

"There's no way Kouren wouldn't notice. We're all connected, via a surgical ceremony. There's no way that Kouren can feel the sway of another seal."

"Really...? I thought it was a pretty good line."

He's ready to cross the island, and even bothers me about this issue until that reception arrives.

… sealed. That's two seven-stars too. Though it is true that Lue is divided as he says, sealing every single operation should be a robust object.

It is an absolute code that cannot be lifted without the liberator, and it should be certain that Masato reached this territory before us at that time...

"... are Fennel's men that strong? I don't know much about the strength of Missato's squire, but is it stronger than that?

"Oh, strong. Right...... some of the people who raided the hideout before would have been the elites of the Knights of Liberty? You can think of me as that strong."

"So... is that who you were dealing with when Amami and I were struggling? At that time, thanks to Kai's rush, I got nothing..."

Four humans should have been dealing with each other then, against Lace and Amami.

Then... if we did poorly, there were more than one person of mutual strength with Reis.

That's certainly a struggle imperative, to be honest, I'm starting to feel like I can't stand my teeth in a row of misats.

"... not to mention the liberator. That's how strong he is..."

That's when Lue, who was thinking of something, groaned pompously.

I wonder if you have any idea, and I urge her to continue.

"... if it's just strength, that kid... Chi could win..."

To the name, the heart pulses a little harder.

It's just a coincidence, but I'm still thrilled to hear that name. True.

But was he such a strong opponent by then?

"For a moment, it was just a moment, but that kid did take the back of me for real. Okay? I'm usually like this, but I'm not nice enough to get out of hand in a fight, let alone a situation where my life might be at stake. Take my back in that situation. That's heterogeneous."

"Hmm... can I help Lue and say that much? It was pretty early."

Just before Dahlia finished saying it. Lue shouts out loud.

And at the same time... he spoke out in a terrible, depressing way.

"... I'm sorry, I forgot something... Chi said when I left..." There could be a big incident in the capital soon "..."

"Huh!? That it could have been about the destruction of the seal?

"... I don't know. But maybe... I don't like it, that kid is a favorite of Hamu, and he's not very good for a bad kid, but I didn't think so. He just wants to go home."

The unpleasant feeling, the disturbing feeling, the vague contour, makes the path to the right answer come to life one by one.

"I want to go home"? "There's a big case coming up soon"? Why didn't you ask me more about the right person?

"Lue. Can you tell me all you can about what kind of words you exchanged with that person that night?

"Ugh, yeah... let's remember Reis together. Maybe...... that kid is an associate"

That's how the fragmented information they conveyed reinforced this reasoning perfectly as if they knew it.

The person can use the item box.

The person, while human, has a strength not commensurate with his youth.

The person had some knowledge of the Japanese culture that was being passed on to the Mass Rabbit.

The person just wanted to go home.

And more importantly - this is what I asked Lue and Reyes.

"Would that face have looked somewhere like Nao or Ren? '.

"... although my hair was brown, I think my eyebrows were black"

"You may have looked a little, similar..."

"... not sure, but the possibilities are much stronger..."

The swordsman girl who named herself "Chi Chi" is likely to... be a liberator.

Ask Dahlia. If there are two sealed seven stars, can we summon two liberators? and.

"... That summons, so to speak, calls man from the outside of reason. The Seven Stars are similarly distributed from outside reason, and the magic that leaks out of the seal is similarly of a nature that reaches beyond reason. I reconvert the spilling magic and arrange the procedure to circulate between the two seven stars... but if I can break somewhere... naturally I can get two magic pieces."

"I mean, it's possible to call two people, too?

"... in theory, enough magic is needed"

I mean... there were two liberators... and.

"... then there are people who have reorganized the procedure without me noticing. So that I wouldn't notice, you were changing it slightly for the dormant period..."

Dahlia looking terribly tired. Perhaps it has come to the fact that the distortions in this country have been dull under the water for a long time than I had assumed.

"... but, but, yeah? Kai-kun is here. Kai-kun has already defeated two Seven Stars, right? What if... I'm sorry to have to rely on you like this... right?

"... Caivon. You defeated all seven stars?

Lue suggests that we give him hope, but Dahlia argues against it.

I can convey hopeful observations, but I don't lie to this guy alone.

I'm not saying I can't take him down. I would never speak of not being able to. But... I tell you the truth.

"One killed an opponent in sealed condition by striking the biggest blow almost unintentionally. The other one was probably weak fighting my demon and temporarily taking it down at a time when he was moving on to the human body."

"... I mean, you weren't in perfect condition, were you?

"Oh. But - my attack, even though it was supposedly sealed, has the power to bury the strongest seven stars in one blow. And now... perhaps more attacks are possible."

It's not like we can create a situation that we can defeat for sure. But if you hit it, you have the power to kill for sure.

Just tell Dahlia that fact.

"... in that case, the only thing that's certain is that it's sealed and you could kill it."

"What the hell happens to you when you defeat the whole thing?

"Wake up. Definitely. Unfortunately, they're not sealed in the same place."

Dahlia says that one of the two is sealed in the territory of Selew, and the other on the other side of it, namely the centre of the land ruled by the elves, the Brightness Arch.

... Well, I was thinly aware of that area.

"Selew is probably black, in Caivon's prediction. Then the rest of the seal will be Eldain and... myself. You mean close to the king's hand..."

"And maybe someone who's sealed together in a sealed place..."

"Huh! Oh, yeah"

The indoors are surrounded by silence.

Things are more complicated than I thought. And there was nothing we could say about seeing the worst that could happen.

... Right, we need to change the air.

"Well, you'll figure it out. If we were to defeat the Seven Stars, Dahlia would help us, right? Ask Shun to help you with anything. Even that guy, if he can beat you, he should want to beat you, right? Right...... what do you say we ask Oink, who's in the semifinals, for help too?

"Oh, my God. Suddenly, that's easy."

"Oh, it won't be easy. But here's the power that I can take down, and there's two of my old friends on this continent, and there's another one for my neighbor. Plus, there's Lue and Reis here. With all the conditions... you could definitely take him down, right? 'Cause it's us, huh?

"That's right! We're all here, not like we used to be. If it wasn't when I was alone, it wouldn't be the same as when Dahlia and the others challenged the seven stars alone. It's impossible to lose, absolutely!

Anxiety must have faded somewhat to these words. 'Maybe so,' Dahlia zeroes with a somewhat distracted grin.

Maybe I can't be optimistic, in that position. But it's absolutely wrong that your future projections, which could end tragically, don't take our existence into account.

Then there was a little noise about the fish hanging when I tried to retrieve the fishing rod of the leith I had left behind, but around noon a man appeared who called himself Lord's use, and we were brought along the coast, near the lighthouse at the edge of the city.

It's a shallow sea around here, and it's possible to walk through the shallow waters during the day to submerged sites a little offshore.

To this day, the water was pulling so far that I could still walk as far away as I could.

"Uhm...... you're going to get octopus, shrimp and sawdust in this shallow water"

"When you take seafood outside of fishing, you need permission. Ask the innkeeper later."

"Oh, the big fish are getting lost! You're so busy."

"... oh my god"

That's how I looked out at the sea, and a man from the messenger called out to me.

Apparently, the ship arrived at the ruins ahead of us, walking across from here.

Dahlia said that the ships that were not originally so far shallow and that were directly on their way to the laboratory were also normally out of the port. But the environment still changed subtly year after year, resulting in terrain like this now, he said.

Even so, the ruins... boarded a boat from a small place like the old pier and headed to an island that looked far away.

"That sounds kind of like a green place. I can only see the woods from here."

"It's on the other side. The lab trail. Well, originally, we elves used nature in a lot of ways."

"Speaking of which, the castle at Brightness Arch blended with a big tree... hopefully one day we'll be able to go on a tour"

"Ryuesuke...... oh right. One day, I'll try to be a country where you can go anywhere without feeling any burden."

The ship circled to the back of the island and, as Dahlia said, there were lab tracks in the place.

As Dahlia said, I guess the institute was also originally a great tree.

Its appearance as if it had been made by creeping through the contents of a tree, which is also likely to appear in a fairy tale.

But if you look closely, he looked very unlikely to appear in a picture book or something.

Silhouettes are the big trees. But it burns black everywhere, and the surface is falling apart.

The windows were also broken, the artificial parts were distorted and, in a sense, appeared to be returning to their original appearance, nature.

"You said there were raids in the past. A lot of the kids went missing in that case. Well... I got to take care of most of that myself..."

"... you shouldn't ask for details, should you?

"... because they were excellent children. I guess a lot of people wanted it. Or have you been solemnly sanctified by these people because you are conducting outrageous experiments"

On the road, when I heard only the touch of the incident from Dahlia and arrived in front of the building, Reyce, who had listened quietly to Dahlia from earlier, took a step forward.

"... here, you were born Ikes"

"... right. And... I'm the one who took it up. When I woke up, I was always the first to play the role of a pregnant woman. He woke up with me and thanked me for being alive in the world... and he believed it was a blessing, a ritual to wish mothers and children happiness."

"... I'm not going to blame Mr. Dahlia for that. Besides, so should the mothers at the time. Because the people who used it were the ones who used it."

"... but I'm also the one who didn't stop the fennel. I was also on his proposal," Let's give the good family a great deal of strength, protection, and education in the future. "

Dahlia speaks pale as if she had lost her emotions.

I felt like I knew just a little bit about how Dahlia felt.

Me and Dahlia both know something called a free society.

There are equal opportunities, and people are trying to grasp happiness while being driven by effort, talent, luck and circumstances. Such a world.

But on the other hand, I know as much as I don't like the brutal reality that ordinary people who want such happiness will suffer and crumble because of the evil deeds and outrages of the people who stand above them.

… did you think that avoiding such a tragedy in this world could educate and create the people who should stand on top as good rulers?

"Regrets around there won't do anything about it now. I'll do what I have to do now."

"Huh! Oh, right. In the meantime, let's go to the materials room at the time. Before we do, we'll have to look at the sealed base."

That's when he opens the doors to decay, all his feet stop at the odor that runs through his nose.

Obvious rotten odor, and the smell of blood.

The indoors were already devastated and filled with broken equipment and building debris, but by the way, there were traces of tragedy left in colour.

Perhaps only the body was cleaned up by a large mess. Blood and flesh pieces creeping everywhere, which is probably the cause of this odor.

"Shit... even if it's where the kids were born, I just can't stand it. Ljue, please."

"Yeah... I'll try to purify it"

It's been a long time since Rhue has been activated 'Dispel Earth'.

The highest healing demon, which cannot be activated unless the highest ranked sacred attribute is a granted sword.

The effect is to purify the surroundings and give intermittent healing effect. And in this world, it is also an object that normalizes in the true sense and washes away evil spirits, grudges, dirt and ideas.

But...

"... Dahlia, what are you doing here... I paid off the dirt on the surface and there's still something deep down... something strong, something very strong"

"... I knew it was so"

You have a verse in mind, Dahlia quietly looks back here.

The look looked familiar somewhere. Not as Dahlia, in Hisashi's face, there were times when he was given this look from time to time.

That 's--

"... you need to ask me something, Dahlia."

"The sealed site has become a kind of force field. Perhaps it's accumulating here, something that Rhue can't."

"... this is, in a way, obstetrics and gynaecology, right?

There was a point.

Perhaps the children born weren't the only ones who died here.

... some of them were unborn.

And... happiness or unhappiness, I used to talk about that as a miscellaneous matter.

Well, enough to invite Hisashi and Kazuki on a hobby for a spiritual spot tour.

"You, maybe you've tried everything since you came to this world? Witchcraft and Yin Yang Road, commonly known as Witchcraft, I thought this world would make it happen."

"Huh! Oh, yeah"

"Fennel wasn't the only one doing anything dangerous in this lab, was he?

"... I didn't just imitate my life as blasphemous"

"I know that guy. But you're swirling, right? Something. Fennel chose this place as a sealing base because it's convenient."

There is the term 'Spirit of the Water Son'.

It is a word that refers to the spirit of an unborn child or a child who died immediately after birth, and is sometimes spoken of as a terrible thing, a sneak thing.

So few places bother to establish a hacienda for the Spirit of the Mizuko.

But - you're such a liar if you tell me. Though there is no way an innocent soul would be evil.

Though it would be the baby with the prettiest soul. Who sneaks?

But on the other hand, I think so. Innocence is sometimes imprisoned, deceived, and dyed.

As far as Dahlia and Lue's valves are concerned, at least I guess this wasn't a decent place.

And if even such an innocent soul had been sealed with the seal...

"... for once, I think I can provide for it. Only once did I wish for the soul of someone from the bottom of my heart and use magic."

"Ah......! What happened in Minds Valley... right?

"Yes. Oh, I see. It does look a little like that place, this place."

Maybe if we head to that sealed stronghold trail, we'll be trapped in another terrible illusion, thought.

With that concern, we headed to the deepest part of the lab.

On the road, Dahlia talks about this institute.

It was originally a place to find out about the human body during the divine slavery, such as Dahlia and Shun.

And it was also a place to develop techniques that applied the knowledge of the Earth that Dahlia and Shun bring.

And... the fact that Fennel showed a different kind of eating in the medical field.

"Healthcare on Earth is, to be honest, better than magic, magic and magic in this world."

"Really? The magic that heals in an instant is much better, isn't it?

"It's the same thing where you write answers to questions without writing a formula. It's more advanced to treat human power alone, knowing what works in the process, in the human body, and what cellular changes are going on."

I know what you're trying to say, but it still didn't seem like I was any match for healing magic that could save more.

"It's only natural to think so. But, Kayvon, what happens if we go further into genetics and cloning technology? So far, you think it's just better than magic?

"... that's true, though"

"Fennel then studied that all the time. Among other things, they were eating up mammoth restoration experiments, reasoning aimed at ancestral returns."

I've heard of it. Suppose an elephant was born from a fertilized egg incorporating a mammoth gene.

If there was a mammoth factor going on there, this time multiplying the ones with that factor with each other, giving birth to a child with a stronger mammoth factor, and combining it with the mammoth gene again - that's the guy.

Well, I remember seeing it somewhere when I was a kid that it didn't happen...

"... I think Fennel was trying to be us now."

"What about him - Dahlia, you can't be!

"... the children born here also have my cells embedded in them. Indirectly, my blood is flowing."

That was just a bloodthirsty story.

But the aim was to produce an excellent child, and yet... with Dahlia's knowledge and flesh there... it didn't come as a surprise that I actually did that, yes, I thought.

Then Rayce, who was listening to this one, stuck to Dahlia.

"What does that mean? Is Dahlia your mother, Ikes or Amami?

"Yes, no it isn't... before I was born, just a little bit of my gene... is it good when it comes to human blueprints... I was magically replacing him and engraving him as a blessing"

"... difficult. But there's not much to do with Mr. Dahlia, is there?

"... oh. So even after this raid, we've been working for the kids for almost a hundred years. And in the last generation, all the children who were born at the same time as Ikes and Amami and all of them,"

"... Why, did you die? No way Ikes either......?

"I guess she escaped the continent, huh? Then I think that even if Fennel did something, he was escaping under the influence. The kids I've seen... they were all reunited after or during their death from old age."

And Amami and Leila, unlike the other children, are still alive thanks to the dispersed burden in the form of twins.

If any of the surgical rituals on this continent are having a negative impact on the children.

After all, it would be better to destroy this surgical ceremony every seven stars.

"It's time for the bottom tier. It's just that Cowen asked me to do things that must have been a pain in the ass."

It was the arrow tip that Dahlia said that in front of the big iron door.

Zokri and chills rush. And that apparently wasn't just me, and Lue was looking a little pale again.

But - it was Rayce who was showing worse than that.

She squatts and weeps as she suppresses her mouth.

He kept saying 'I'm sorry, I'm sorry' as if it were a rumor.

"... Reis is probably easily fascinated. Before, when Kai-kun found the black monster, there was a time when Reis was cursed, right? That's what happened then."

"Huh! Lue, ask Reis to recover"

"Yeah, I'm not getting anything spelly. Just... Lace, don't look at that, and don't lend me your ears, look at me."

Rhue leans in front of Reis and gently tells him to look at himself firmly.

"Lue... I hear voices... from beyond this door... the crying of children"

"Yeah, that's right. Because Reyce was everyone's mother... because she was so sweet, I think they all turned their voices to Reyce."

"... Reis, you can wait here with Lue. 'Cause I'd be fine by myself."

I don't hear anything this time. But I guess it sounds like Lace.

Apparently, Dahlia is also affected by a lot of things, and she looks a lot pale.

But Rayce stood up like she had decided to.

"I'll see. If the children are suffering ahead of them... and I don't see the moment when it clears up, maybe this chest pain won't heal."

"... well. Okay, so shall I come with you? Daria, open the door."

That's how Dahlia opens up.

of its doors that lead to the underground where darkness lasts everywhere.

Every step, I have the illusion that my legs will be heavy.

It was as if something was on my leg, so much so that I even let such vague signs drift.

And at its end, the door that reappears.

And the moment I opened it there - it wasn't Rais, Lue or me, Dahlia screamed.

"Ohhhhhh!! What, what is this! What happened? What the hell is going on! You or you! It's you! Awwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwww! You, what do you think! Ahhh!!!

The room was like the body of a giant creature.

Meat. Bones. Something. They filled the walls, floors, ceilings, and somewhere full of raw warm air.

And around the altar of meat, which would have been the base of the seal, was embedded a dry head, which could be seen from a distance to be a man's.

"Dahlia, calm down! What's the matter, this misery is something you don't know!?

"I don't know! This, this blasphemy of the dead! Get the kids... Get the kids into this stuff!

Are you disturbed enough, that tone will belong to the Virgin?

Dahlia reaches out to each and every head embedded in the altar, covering them with light, and breaking them down into grains of light.

... obviously heterogeneous. The base of this seal, from my point of view, was unusual, not very much, but I didn't think it was sacred for sealing.

Then, Reis walked quietly, and placed his hand on Dahlia's shoulder.

"Mr. Dahlia...... we're all here. Don't cry, I'm reaching for my body desperately"

"What... are you seeing, you?"

When I noticed, both eyes of Leis had red light.

I guess her demonic eyes capture the spirit, which in a way is like magic.

Can't you hear me crying anymore, just quietly talking to Dahlia, Reis?

"Maybe somewhere we realized that Mr. Dahlia was like our own parents. The moment I walked into the room, the cry disappeared. I think I'm relieved."

"... Really? Oh...... you're here, guys"

"... Dahlia, I don't think we need any more purification. I think it's because I purified your body, and I can feel the signs getting a little thinner."

And it's been a long time since I've been ready for a magic guide, too.

I wish I could help, if I could be the way to heaven.

"Dahlia, the children are not going to rise from the bottom of the ground. I'll open the highway to heaven, so get out of the room a little bit."

"... Yes, please. Do it in full, magnificent,"

I felt strange. My best friend, Hisashi, who was a man, is here now as his mother.

But there were parts of me that were convinced somewhere. He said it was Dahlia, not Hisashi.

I live here as a Virgin, and I think of my children as a Mother, that I am one person.

People change. I know that. But Dahlia's changes are too big, and her face, which she always shows, remains too old for me to accept it somewhere.

But 'she' is' she '. It's a mistake to be caught in the past or in the future.

I was finally convinced that Dahlia, who is here now, was all of it, too, and I felt that.

"... take the children to his land." "Havenly Flame." "

A pitch-black flame engulfs the wretched room.

A flame that should not involve temperature returns everything to dust, and erases the ceiling of the room, creating a tunnel with soil and rocks, erasing all the buildings.

And that must have reached its peak. The falling afternoon sun plunged into the bottom of this darkness.

"... go ahead. I'll be there sometime."

"... right. So I hope to see you again."

When the magic guide was over, the room was just turning into a cavernous figure of dirt.

I asked him what would happen to the adjustment work at the sealed site, and he said he probably couldn't do anything about it right now because everything had been reset with the current blow.

But for this tsunami, it is also possible to deform the nearby seabed and suppress it later?

"Originally, it was like an excuse to come here. Well, let's go find some material that might be left here."

"I also found out that I didn't know a lot about you. Still, there might be something."

He goes up the stairs again, forgiving Reis and Rhue, who were crying for some reason.

However, this time the leg never got heavy, and I felt refreshed somewhere.

- Yes, until we get back to the ground.
