Magic Gems Gourmet

As soon as Lil disappeared, Ein said, "Let's go." Ein gently gazed at Giddo and Riordo.

The two of them rushed after him, who had just begun to walk.

A little further away, Marco was walking with their emotions in mind.

Your Highness!

Although he was surprised by the scene just now, Giddo still called out to Ein.

"Lil, what happened to Lil?! Why are you suddenly disappearing?"

Giddo then took a breath when he saw Ain's side.

I wonder if he is really the same person as the prince who met in the capital.

It was overwhelming to see Ein floating on her face and impregnating her with the aura she had wrapped around her. However, Ein noticed that Giddo was dancing under that pressure, and he bitterly smiled.

"I'm sorry, I seemed a little upset."

He continues with a simple apology.

"... I think Lil is dead."

Although he was no longer an ally, Gido was stunned.

Like Lil, he grabbed his hands hard and gnawed at his claws.

I just can't tell Ein this much.

Lil turned it into particles and disappeared, but I wasn't even sure what kind of magic it was and how it was going to work.

Maybe he's alive somewhere...

(No, I don't think so.)

Earlier, Lil's magic powers and signs were completely wiped out.

It was similar to how Ein felt when she sucked the magic stone, and it was suddenly erased as if it hadn't been from the beginning.

That's why Ein didn't think Lil was alive.

In the first place, I can't think of any advantage in keeping that girl alive.

Will a man who was clever and visionary and even abandoned Bayolf find value in Lil? I wonder if that girl was worth that much.

"... Your Highness"

Riordo's voice reaches Ein's ears, which is drowning in thoughts.

Oh, what's wrong?

Ein returned a voice pretending to be calm, but before he even realized it, his voice was loud.

"There are a lot of things that bother me, such as how you knew the queen..."

“I'm sorry, I heard you two the other day. ― ― ― Also, I heard a lot of stories that bothered me from you, so it was enough to reach the conclusion I just reached.

"Oh, me or something!?"

"Riordo!? How long have you been seeing His Highness!?"

"I didn't see you! I didn't even see you!" Your Highness! When did you talk to me?! "

Their doubts did not bother Ein.

It doesn't mean anything to me at all, and it doesn't make any important mistakes.

Anyway, now is the time to do your best for the country of iron, so it is better to keep it short. Especially since the underground space of Kakko has been shaking since time immemorial.

"I'm the general who was there the other day." I was hiding my identity with a magic tool. "

Replying lightly, Riordo and Giddo were stunned again.

But Ein didn't shut his mouth.

"As for us, the movement of the iron country was too suicidal and I felt uncomfortable. So I thought it would be in our best interest to find out."

"I don't know... I'm the one who went to King's Landing, but for Ishtarika, our iron country won't be worth much." After all, even my and Riordo's crude plans were all in vain, depending on what you thought. ”

"----maybe."

The overwhelming difference in national power makes it possible.

However, Ishtarika was unwilling to solve it from the beginning with her strength skills.

"But I followed that man to this country." That's all there is to it. "

I avoided any further explanation, but all of Ishtarika's appearances in this way were made by the former counselor on the Golden Route.

Ishtarika wanted whatever information she could find about the silver-haired man.

All this was exhausted, and the long and troublesome journey to this day required a lot of expense.

Ein-sama.

And, Marco.

"As you all know, the wobble is getting bigger.... look around the Iron King's hammer. It's sucking up the magic around it and shaking the space.”

"I know, so I'm going to ask Marco to head for the gavel just in case."

"What about me, Ein-sama?"

"I will protect the lives of my people." The hammer itself may be broken, or it may be rampaged. "

Hearing the words, Riordo and Giddo became desperate.

It's a sad and convenient story, but I thought this man named Ain would definitely give me a hand, so the current words shook my heart strongly.

But the two of them are made to understand by their continued words that it was a mistake.

"--- I'm here for that. If you run away, no one will be killed."

◇◇◇◇

Ein had something to worry about.

If the swimming Lil had returned to the Iron Nation, the Queen would be somewhere too. It was also suspected that the place was the Iron King's Hammer.

Yet Ain gave priority to the lives of his people.

Of course, I wasn't worried about the Queen's safety or whether she would escape. He told Marco that he was willing to turn and push things forward at his discretion.

In addition, even in the unlikely event of an Iron King's hammer, there is no guard against wielding power at that moment.

... Marco, who knew such determination and strength, broke up with Ain and reached the castle.

It was also in the center of the turmoil, and there was a queen, as Ein predicted.

"Oh, you..."

One of the dwarves was surprised by Marco's visit and panicked.

The dwarves who stood to block the path to the underground refused to allow Marco to go into its depths.

"Get out of the way. We're here."

"Yeah. You need to get out there and help me evacuate the people."

For them, absolute existence, what the guardsman and deputy guardsman have said will settle the scene.

What are you doing at a time like this? The dwarves who were blocking the way immediately headed out at the voices of the two who had been directed at him.

"I'm sorry."

"No, I don't think it's about Giddo apologizing." They were left in spite of this to protect the Queen. ”

Therefore, they are also good loyalists.

Gido apologized to Marco for saying "I'm sorry," and stepped underground to take Marco to the Iron King's Hammer.

... and soon thereafter.

The castle, the underground space, was struck by an unprecedented shake.

Marco calmly looked out of the window, and his eyes glowed with an artificial sky, a brightly colored aurora.

The sight had been seen many times to this day, but the light and the momentum had increased.

“I'm so surprised.”

The sincerity of his murmuring... "

All of the sights in my sight are the main stream of magic power that keeps coming.

It was a tremendous amount to create Marco's admiration.

Still, there was no sadness.

I had no other master, so I had nothing to think about.

― ― ― Eventually, the three of them headed for the tube path ahead.

At the end of the long road, in front of the control panel next to the center of the hammer.

Queen!

Giddo looked at the girl in front of him.

"You're home after all...!"

And Riordo rushed his legs even further.

The two stood in front of the control panel and rushed to the queen who could not stop crying.

But the queen won't turn a blind eye to the two of them.

I moved my hand in a confused manner and whispered hard to move the control panel.

"I can't..." You won't listen to me anymore... "

The control board is the power of the iron king's hammer inherited by the king from generation to generation.

Of course, even the queen came to this place at a young age and followed the prescribed course to register herself.

At a glance, the control panel is like a stone slab, with glowing characters floating on it.

When the Queen arrived as a young child, the ancient way she had manipulated it by herself and saw the stone slab instantly.

... but that was all.

The queen thought that was how she inherited the iron hammer.

Giddo, who came here, thought so, and gnawed his teeth at what words he should send to the queen.

But the queen murmured against her will.

"Ah... I knew I was just a dwarf...?"

Suddenly, while touching the control panel with one heart.

Giddo and Riordo were happy to hear the murmur. The two thought that the queen should not know where she came from, so they were already greatly surprised.

I wondered if Lil had said anything at the last minute, but there was no sign of it.

Giddo, who stretched out his hand without strength, said in a squeaky voice.

"Queen, you..."

"I've been thinking about it for a long time...!" My father didn't tell me... but I didn't feel like this Iron King Mallet was listening to me... so... "

It is conveyed by her words, as I have always imagined.

Furthermore, the queen who keeps moving her fingertips and tries hard to manage the hammer will never turn to Gido and Riordo.

Marco, who was watching the situation, didn't change his expression, but he was heartbroken.

─ ─ While doing so, everything in the pipe that led to the center of the Hammer of the Iron King blinked pale.

The magic power accumulated in the accumulation showed that intention, and the surrounding earth was shaking.

At this rate, the Iron King's Hammer would be a complete rampage.

Marco reached for his sword and stood up to protect everyone around here at all times---that's when it happened. There was a deep glowing crack in the huge pitch-black cube that settled high in the sky.

It's really over.

The Iron Nation will be saved by Ain, but it will no longer be able to live.

That's what I thought.

Ga, ga ga ga ga ga...

An unusual sound resounded from one of the tubes that spread across the area in a complicated manner.

It was when everyone was ready, including Marco.

Gu, ghh... ahhhhhhhhh!!

There was a hole in the pipe, and a good dwarf from Gatai fell from it.

Marco then unexpectedly turned his eyes to the point. The queen, who had touched the control board with all her heart, stood still and turned to herself.

Damn it! The dwarf falls with power beside Marko.

The dwarf stood up after touching his heavily struck ass, and said with a strangely powerful smile, "You made me wait."

"Huh? It's not Marco's husband." What are you doing here?

"That's our dialogue." Master Shearton, why did you come down with a hole in the tube? I think that inside was full of dense magic power..... "

"You know very well! That's why I've worked so hard to neutralize the magic!"

When I was told, there was no sign of that magic overflowing from the tube with the hole in it.

What did you do... the queens and gidos, who were supposed to be skilled, lost their words and couldn't take their eyes off the rising shearling.

What happened when the shearling wiped the sweat off her forehead and took the tool she was carrying on her waist?

By the way, Mister, can you afford to do me a favor?

"As you know, I am Lord Ein's knight." However, if Lord Mutton says that he will do anything for Lord Ein, then my life is at stake. "

Mutton smiles and says, "Break the pipes in my order."

As I said, we are already ready to go down.

"But it can only buy you time." That doesn't stop the rampage of the Iron King's Hammer. "

But if we destroy the pipe, we can shut down the magic power supply. Mouton affirmed that the rampage cannot be stopped anymore, but that the power of the upcoming rampage should be weakened.

Can I ask you something?

"I understand." Looks like it'll help Ein-sama. "

Marco then suddenly disappeared. He left the area in an instant and went to destroy the pipes in the area based on information he had received from Mutton.

Looking at it, the Queen she was listening to looks at Mutton.

Mutton's expression remained the same from before...... his face, which did not make him feel any pessimism, approached the control board where the queen was.

"Lady, get out of there."

"...... it's no good. This can only be ordered by royalty."

So I was pessimistic.

The queen's cheeks were wet with tears, and the saliva that reached her chin dripped.

Sheaton could not help but laughed at it and stroked her head slightly violently as she walked past the queen.

"You didn't give up, did you? That's why I came here, even though I didn't think it was possible."

"Ugh... but it didn't work!" That's why everyone has to run away. "-" Don't be a fool. Don't come this far and give up. "" --- "

She still stands hard with her tiny body, shaking her shoulders as she approaches Mutton's.

Standing next to the Mutton that she had touched before, the queen finally collapsed from her lap and covered her cheeks with her hands.

"Don't give up on anyone, there are people who always risk their lives." I mean, look at us, they're giving up---what kind of face do you want me to meet them?! "

Shearling had never touched the iron hammer's control board.

This is because they are usually surrounded by heavy security and multiple defenses.

Istarica's researchers were unable to see it. Because it is not an exaggeration to say that revealing this works against the hammer of the iron king.

In other words, under the circumstance that I wanted to avoid stimulating the Iron King's mallet that I wanted to calm down, I shouldn't have touched it.

However, as Mutton touched his body like a stone slab, a number of glowing letters began to appear.

Giddo and Riordo let out a surprise as the queen raised her face.

"What... do you mean...?"

"Mu, you said Mutton-sama!" How can you manipulate it!? "

"Ahh! I tried Giddo and I didn't even say yes!?"

Mutton, who had listened to the voice of surprise, did not answer.

No way. Are you kidding me? Without being able to conceal his surprise, he desperately touched the control panel in the guise of calmness.

But he suddenly scratched his cheek.

"I don't know. What does it say?"

The characters on the control panel did not correspond to any of the characters used by the dwarves.

But it's a letter that Giddo and the others don't understand.

Instead, the queen patted her cheeks! and beat it hard to read it out.

"Ugh... this is the output, continuous magic power change!"

"Lady, can you read it?"

"Hah---haha!" This is a letter that is only passed down to the royal family! ”

"That's convenient." Then, lass, read it out like that! "

There is nothing difficult to operate from then on.

Mutton carefully performed each operation according to the letters read out by the queen.

However, while I was doing so, the rift in the Iron King's hammer spread.

Where's next!?

"This way!" The Iron King's mallet fever --- and the chain of command was renewed --- with exclusive authority next--- "

Mutton's fingertips moved without hesitation, and the queen read them aloud as well.

Before the rampage of the Iron King's hammer, the two continued to work so as not to feel impatient, and not to look at the main body of the Iron King's hammer, where the crack continued to spread.

A glowing crack continues to surround the pitch-black cube.

If it spreads a few more centimeters, the cracks around it will form.

The sway is correspondingly large, and the brightly coloured Aurora that surrounds the castle is swirling with the stormy clouds.

Eventually, the vortex imitated a very colourful ray of light that wore the sky.

A huge shake swept through the iron kingdom, and the dirt swept down the castle gradually.

"... this!"

Mutton rushed his hand further.

It can be seen that Marco, who commissioned the job, is doing it because the pipe around him breaks down from time to time.

But the runaway was too short.

The pitch-black cube surrounded by the sky's high rays suddenly increased the speed to collapse, and the crack that was approaching a little further suddenly approached the paw.

The crack surrounding the area was already a dozen centimeters narrower.

But,

"--- Enough, stop cumming cumming!"

The last character displayed on the console.

Although he could not read the letter to Mutton, he thought it was two "yes/no", and he pressed it with his fist as the queen told him.

The royal sigil of the iron kingdom floats on the control board, which has been kept busy until now.

The royal emblem flashed a dazzling light in front of the Iron King's hammer.

The crack that was approaching a few millimetres away had subsided and somehow wiped out the rays that had penetrated the ground.

"... did it stop?"

The queen sat down.

She was relieved from her waist and a dry smile floated on her cheek.

When you notice it, the tears that you thought had withered pass through your cheeks.

I couldn't feel it if I noticed that it was shaking so frighteningly before, and the rampage of the Iron King's Hammer really stopped ---so I calmed down.

The tears passing through my cheeks quickly overflowed without stopping.

Having lived through what seemed to be a mischief of fate, she came here and started crying out loud at the unspoken emotions.

"W-What are you--?"

Shearling laughed as he showed his white teeth.

But it was when he continued to look up at the sky.

Katakana, Katakata.....

I thought I could hear such a creepy sound coming from the crack in the gavel, and the gavel was pathetically shattered.

While the shards of lacquer and black danced around, the magical crystal that was condensed in the center became a ball of light and soared into the sky.

Mutton's eyes widened and the queen's face, who was relieved, instantly despaired.

Moreover, Giddo and Riordo, who were beside them, hid their brows and approached to shelter the queen at the same time.

”Geez... we didn't have enough time?”

Steel magic that swells above the ground behind the sunlight that reaches it from the ground.

With intense roar and waves, it falls in accordance with gravity. In the blink of an eye, they pull toward the underground castle.

The hole that led to the ground was further spread, falling without weakening the momentum at all.

As the castle approached, the steel magic continued to expand.

... Exactly, the hammer.

It became a shameful and intense form of destruction in the name of the Iron King's Hammer.

That made Mutton laugh.

"Amazing substitute, isn't it?" Even though you've weakened by using your hand, you still have that kind of power? "

As soon as it reaches the castle, it will undoubtedly unleash violence across the continent.

If it was born in the past before the Demon King War a long time ago, it was not surprising that it controlled the continent at that time.

However, the current rampage was much weaker than its original power. Mutton's actions had weakened it.

The problem is, they still have the power to destroy this country in an instant.

But Mutton was still not pessimistic.

He stood beside the Iron King's Hammer in a very high place overlooking the Iron Kingdom and looked sorry.

I looked up at the impending mass of violence, and saw the roots of hundreds of trees that had grown out of the earth to support it.

I'm sorry, Your Highness.

Saying an apology, Ein stands beside me one day.

"Thanks to Mr. Mutton, I've bought you some time." The people have been evacuated, and the power of the rampage has been weakened, and we can afford it. "

"... oh, it would be great if you could say that."

Giddo, Riordo, and the Queen.

The three were surprised at how calm they were.

I would say that if such a force were to come down, there would be nothing left. Why are these two not scared at all?

"So from here on out, it's my job."

The rampant magic finally touched the roots of the trees.

The roots of the trees support all of them, and they do not scare.

However, the steel magic that continued to expand and destroy everything screamed. Ein raised his hand toward the sky as everyone listened to the sound of the golden cries.

The open fingertips, five fingers spread out.

While basking in the sunlight pouring down from the ground, the power of the Hammer of the Iron King was at the end of his hand ─ ─

"Sleep, Iron King Hammer."

As soon as Ein closed her palm, the power of steel was sucked through the roots of the trees.

◇◇◇◇

I had to disclose everything.

What happened to Ishtarika between the last month and the last two months? The existence of the iron kingdom in the west of the continent could not naturally be concealed from the people what had happened between them and Ishtarika.

The publicly disclosed information quickly spread across the continent and instilled many emotions in the people and the nobility.

― ― However, there were not many other people with strong hostility.

The absolute existence of Ishtarika and the kind words of the first king are widely known to everyone.

The opponent's name as a dwarf must have been affected too. The Dwarves have been a part of Ishtarika since the time of the Great War, and are an indispensable part of the adventurer town of Baltic.

Therefore the bewilderment spread before the anger of the people.

Meanwhile, among the nobles, we should hold all those in power in the Iron Kingdom accountable... some of them would say so.

The challenges that the King's City and the Castle were supposed to have ran out of ways to bring this one thing to an end.

"That's why I've come to the conclusion."

That's what Warren said.

More than a dozen days after the rampage of the Hammer, he came to the airship where Ein was riding, underneath Ein, which was still processing the scene.

It was still early in the morning, not long after dawn.

"This is the result of many discussions between my men and the Queen, especially with Lord Giddo and Lord Riordo."

Warren handed Ain an envelope to sit in his chair.

On the front is an autographed signature of Sylvard von Ishtarika, which can be seen by the king as a letter addressed to the prince.

As soon as she received it, Ein removed the wax seal with her fingertips.

I opened the envelope and took out the parchment contained in it.

"--- There will be no iron country, right?"

"Yeah... I have to."

But it's not without mercy.

Of course, the Queen will not execute Giddo or Riordo.

Sylvard wrote in his autograph that it would have been natural to commit a slaughter, but there were many reasons why he didn't.

First, the presence of a silver-haired man.

Honestly, I'd like to avoid executing people I've actually met in circumstances where I want a little clue.

Of course, it will be under strict control.

But I'm sure you'll have plenty of mercy.

Another reason is the possibility of buying disgust from the dwarves living in Ishtarika.

If you were a dwarf who knew the difference, you'd be a dwarf who didn't know the difference at first glance. Even if the opponent was to blame, there were nobles who questioned the severe execution.

That said, no one said anything about the iron country's precious technological ambitions.

By the way, did you talk about Mutton meeting Grandpa?

"Yes, it has become clear that Lord Mutton was the royal family of the Iron Kingdom, so I will only ask you a few ceremonial questions. However, we cannot disclose Lord Mutton's bloodline to the nobility."

I think Mutton wanted that.

In addition,

“In view of the fact that there is no one in the Iron Kingdom who will inherit the blood of the royal family, and that their blood is important to them. In other words, it is no exaggeration to say that Lord Mutton is in fact their king.”

But Ms. Mutton has no intention of doing that.

"That's right. The Queen, Giddo and Riordo were amazed by the layers, but Lord Mutton was not particularly concerned and said it was convenient."

Giddo and Riordo, who know his bloodline, also have strict control over the information.

Except for Ain and the others, there were only three of them.

So what's going to happen to the three of them?

I thought I'd leave it with Lord Mutton.

Huh? Is it okay to be so light?

"Actually, it's convenient." Under Lord Shearton, it is easy for us to monitor. Besides, I can see that the three of them, including the Queen, are respectful of Lord Mutton's bloodline. "

Warren says it lightly, but if he says it, it's true.

The secret forces, including Lili, are going to move... about Warren. There must be other solutions with no gaps. Ein nodded, remembering that Warren was still the first person named "I".

Giddo and Riordo will be the guards of the workshop.

However, if Warren's men are watching, we don't need them.

And you're going to be a disciple of Lord Mutton.

"... who?"

“This is rude. It's the Queen's name.”

"Ahh... no, I never heard of the Queen's name."

"Whatever happens, the royalty of the iron kingdom shall be seated on the throne, and their names shall be forsaken. Her Majesty the Queen was born with it, so she never heard of it.”

"Huh? Then how does Warren know that name?"

"It's because I heard it from her biological father."

Then, Tong...... and Ein were quiet.

Her real father. The Queen's biological father. I'm not a former king, really my father.

A dozen or so seconds went by in my head.

"--huh? You mean the queen's father?"

Warren nodded "Yes" with a gentle face.

"It's in Giddo-sama." The former king took the son of his subordinate, Lord Giddo, because he could not earn a child. "

The reason why the child could not be born was due to the former king's constitution, not to the queen whom he had married.

But that had nothing to do with Giddo. But Giddo was told to take both his wife and son hostage, and he nodded.

It seems that his wife preceded him a few years later, and it may be said that Gide's life was at its worst.

When I heard the story, Master Lalua cried, and His Majesty also had a painful look on his face.

"... I guess so."

So, how about letting Aoora escape from the iron kingdom from the beginning?

Ein thought it would be impossible immediately.

In the first place, the queen thought she was royalty, and Giddo suddenly told her that she was her own child, so she couldn't be trusted. Besides, she had a strong sense of responsibility, so it's hard to get away with it.

Going above ground without knowing anything would only be dangerous for those who knew nothing but the underground.

"However, since the country was deceived, it is not on a scale that can reverse the sin in one word. There is no iron country that can be held accountable to the best of its ability.”

That's what crushes the country itself.

The techies will be secretly watching their daily lives, and you can say that returning to the homeland is no longer possible.

But many of the iron dwarfs welcomed it.

Basically, they were hungry, so I have no complaints about obedience to Ishtarika.

Some of them were so grateful that they cried out for a satisfying meal, that it was hard to imagine any traitorous show from here.

Therefore, there were no complaints about the provision of technology.

To put it mightily, the fierce warriors were leaking their grievances.

“So, Aurora is hearing that Gideon is his real father?”

"No, Master Giddo said he couldn't talk." From Lord Aurora's point of view, I'm the only father who abandoned my daughter..... "

"But that 's--"

“That's right, from our point of view it's not.”

However, it is not a good problem to say out loud.

Meanwhile, Gido only said that he might tell you when he had the courage to do so.

He said that he wanted the name Eora to be the name that Ishtarika had decided for a while.

"... okay. Then I won't say anything."

Ein said that and stretched his spine.

Now I can finally calm down a little. When I thought about it, I felt that the feeling that my shoulders had been strained recently had disappeared a little.

You should be able to return to King's Landing soon.

I want to meet a sick Krone soon... and that feeling starts to fill my head.

By the way, some people seem to think that grandpa's decision is too sweet.

In fact, no iron kingdom dignitaries will be executed.

Only the people were informed that it would be under the control of Ishtarika, and only a handful of aristocrats were actually at Mutton.

Whether it is sweet or not, it is not strange that there is a silver-haired man who is sweet.

But Warren laughed at Ein's face in disguise.

“It's about the past." You cannot execute those who fear the unknown "---that is why there is a king who welcomed the hostile werewolves (warwolves) to the people of Ishtarica. At that time, none of the werewolf chiefs and their clans were executed."

Ah, so there's nothing particularly wrong with that?

But there was a king who was surprisingly sweet like himself and his grandfather.

Giggling, Ein felt a little saved and stroked her chest.

By the way, how many generations ago was that king?

Warren loosened his cheeks after being asked to wait.

It was already smiling with pleasure.

"--If I'm sure of my memory, it was the story of the first emperor in the world."

... I see. I shouldn't have asked.

Ein gently looked away from Warren and poked his cheek stick as he looked out the window.

Was that a mistake?

"I worked very hard on information management, and I started to investigate strictly that Sylvia was not a traitor, so in particular,"

…………

"In the modern era, even more human resources are mature enough. The same goes for magic tools, so you won't have to worry too much about them.... hey? Ein-sama, you look a little wicked."

"I was born with it."

"Hmm. Are you on the left?"

Warren said in a plain voice, but his loose cheeks didn't tighten back.

"I'm foolishly asking if it's okay." By accepting werewolves in the past, fugitives like Lord Roland have emerged in modern times. It is important to strive to develop human resources in view of the future. ”

"... then, let's do it"

"Yes, and this is not all that the king will do. Our civil servants join forces and chew on some sweetness to connect us to the future."

Ain laughs with a wicked face, after being told the right thing.

If you look at Warren, he used to laugh happily.

"Executions are clearly condoned, but the lives lost cannot be recovered. As a king, you should do your best to avoid executions and find your way.”

Thank you. I guess there are times when you can't help yourself to a little sweetness.

"You're right, so don't worry too much." After you return to the King's City, please rest for a while. "

And Ein also said, "Is that okay?" and return the question.

"Of course. His Majesty also praised Ein-sama for his work." She said that there were no casualties among the people of the iron kingdom, and that she would never be able to do anything more in the future. "

The rest after returning to King's Landing.

After hearing the words of labor, Ein felt that her shoulders were really lowered.

(I wonder how everyone's doing.)

Thinking about the whole family, the figure of Krone, who was still not feeling well, was remembered behind her eyelids.

Speaking of which, Sylvia said there was nothing to worry about.

So that when she returned to the King's City she could understand what that meant --- Ain couldn't help but wish for it.
