Let's Manage The Tower

(5) Changes in Lirica

It wasn't just because I had a feeling of spirituality that Kaiseki cared about Lirica.

There's another big reason.

"Mr. Lirica, has anything changed since you came to this temple?

The examiner asked Lirica carefully.

I understood that if I made a mistake here, everything would be wiped off.

Meanwhile, Lirica, who wondered who the examiner was, leaned to the sudden question.

"Something unusual? Especially..."

I couldn't think of any aggression, so I replied, but Lirica remembered to say so.

"That makes it easier (...) to find unusual materials when you're adventuring with your friends. If it's your fault, that's all."

It may not be extremely increasing, but it may be more likely to encounter unusual materials than before.

I remembered talking to my friends laughing and telling them that Lirica had started going to the temple.

"That's..."

After listening to Lirica, Kaosuke stopped looking at Sylvia who was trying to say something.

Sylvia felt it and stopped talking.

"? Anything wrong?

Lirica was also not a dull person, so I naturally noticed it.

"Oh, no. Nothing... nothing, but there's something else I'd like to check out, okay?

"? Hah..."

Lirica was confused by something sudden.

Looking around, everyone, including Alec, seemed curious.

No one is trying to stop the study aid.

Lirica is supposed to be the first person I've met, but even if I'm confused, there's no distrust.

It was strange, but I thought it would be because of the amazing members around me.

"When did you start feeling the sensation?

"You may have felt it before, but did you become aware of it about a month ago? No, I didn't think it was crazy."

"Oh, that's fine. As long as you can feel this atmosphere.... and the increase in the rate of discovery of materials comes from around here?

"Hmm, I feel a little different when I say it specifically."

"Well, how long has that been going on?

"Could it have been two or three weeks?"

Lirica answered the questions of the examiner briefly.

I don't know what this question means, but I answer it one after the other without being particularly suspicious.

Later on, I realized that I had been guided from the beginning, but I don't know at this time.

That's why I was allowed to get close.

I see.... so? Don't you feel anything now?

As she approached Lirica, she touched her forehead with her right index finger.

"... ah"

Lirica stood up and dazzled for a moment, but as she knew from the beginning, she was supported by the study.

Sonia, who had been watching the previous exchanges, tried to raise her voice of protest, but Floria, her real son, blocked it.

Specifically, Sonia's mouth, which had already been removed from the mask, was blocked by her hand and her neck was shaken to the left and right.

Sonia, who saw it, reconsidered that it meant something and decided to keep quiet.

By the way, Alec has remained silent from the beginning.

Of course, I know that this is because the examiner is doing something with intent.

He was supported by Lirica, but his eyes were still closed.

The examiner began talking in that state.

"Just keep your eyes closed. Do you feel anything?

Lirica, who is completely induced to study, has no doubt about it.

"... warm..."

Hmm?

Something warm...

When I heard that, Kaiseki smiled unexpectedly, but Lirica closed her eyes and didn't see the expression.

"Where does that feel?

"Around my chest..."

Well then, try touching it.

I'm not asking you to physically touch it.

Lirica, who was already in full charge of the study, managed to touch the warmth as she was told.

Specifically, I couldn't answer why, but I felt that I did touch it at this time.

"Touched?

"... Hi."

"Now, you can slowly open your eyes."

As asked by the examiner, Lirica opened her eyes.

As soon as I opened my eyes, there was, of course, a study aid in front of me.

And as soon as I saw the examiner, I understood who the examiner was.

No, they made me understand.

Fu tried to do this unintentionally, but I was stopped by the examiner immediately.

No, you don't have to do that.

"But...!!

"It's okay."

To further shake his head, Lirica saw Sylvia asking for help.

Sylvia looked at her and smiled bitterly.

"It's okay. This is how Kouske-sama works."

"Ha ha..."

I somehow didn't release him, but Lirica had to convince me.

Sonia looked at the series of interactions in a daze, but she managed to understand the situation with the last interaction.

"What is this, that? That guy?) Are you saying you could understand Mr. Kowske?

I whispered to Floria, who was right next to me.

Sounds like it.

"... how?

"Come on, I don't know if I'm around."

It is entirely Sylvia's domain to speak of God, so we have no idea what has now been done to Floria.

Peach, who was listening to the two conversations, followed them.

"Simply put, did you enlarge Kouske's divinity, which was originally felt in Lirica?"

"The gods? But didn't you keep it down completely?

Now that we can completely suppress the divine power, we should be able to enjoy the festival this time.

"Yes, that's why I said (...) in Lirica."

"Inside..."

I finally found out what I wanted to say to Floria.

But I also understood that it was too early to say it.

Anyway, I haven't told Lirica yet.

I understand that I can't say it myself.

Sonia, who was completely outside the mosquito net, was staring at the two.

With still confused Lirica on his ass, Kaiseki turned to Sylvia.

Understanding the meaning of his gaze, Sylvia started following Lirica.

In these times, you should leave it to Sylvia, who knows best about clergy.

"Lirica-san, are you okay?

Sylvia asked Lirica about the power in her.

"Ah, yes. I don't know if I've caught up with you yet..."

"Don't even think about it. You should accept it as you feel it."

What Lirica is feeling right now is the power of study aid and one end of it.

Lirica is trained as a witch, so it is done as it is now, but if those who are not, it will be difficult to maintain consciousness even so clearly.

Of course, those who have not been trained will not accept the power of God.

Lilika, who had been advised by Sylvia, closed the door for the second time.

Closing your eyes and accepting your strength is a common part of your training.

Gradually, Kaiseki felt that the divine power of Kaiseki in Lirica was well accepted.

Regarding these matters, I once again thought it would be better to leave it to Sylvia.
