There was a lot of noise during the day, but after that, nothing particularly happened and it was a night.
After dinner, Sheena told me that she wanted to talk to me and decided to gather in the living room.
"I want to talk to you about the power of lodging with you two."
!
Reefa and Nia react to Sheena sitting down.
Does Sheena know about the power of Rifa and Nia...?
"It all started... right. From my great-grandmother's time."
"Our, uh, grandma?"
"Hi, Grandma. Reefa"
"That's what happens. Our lineage was a bit special... or strange, and I was curious about pursuing the unknown. My great-grandmother was not an exception, but a person who, like me, had solved the mysteries of many ruins and civilizations."
"Oh, wow."
"You were born in a wonderful house, us."
Historically, he was amazing, wasn't he?
But the reaction of the two sisters is pale.
"I heard about my great-grandmother through her. The monster nesting in the ruins, the cursed undersea ruins, the underground world buried in history, and the encounter with human beings exploring the god beast and monster who later became their grandfather - Ka, Kate? Why are you crying...?"
"Master Sensei...!"
"Let's, let's do it...?"
This is so amazing...!
Just listening doesn't stop excitement.
Do you have a biography...!? Then I'll brag to Chisato later...!
That's right, you should use magic tools at times like these.
"I'm sorry, I'm going to bring you some magic tools right now, so you can let my friends know about it -"
"Kite, I'm talking about something important right now, so please be quiet. Mother, please continue."
"Friend? Kate, is that a girl?"
"The story is getting out of line!? Mom, I'll talk about it later, so please continue!!"
Sheena restarted the conversation with a desperate leaf and a feeling of unfortunateness.
"Cohon... in a fairy tale, there was a strange story."
Strange story?
Was there anything more prominent in the story that was too intense?
"I'm talking about a ruin. Her great-grandmother - she arrived at the ruins after her adventure. It wasn't that difficult compared to other ruins, and she was able to get there lightly, but she didn't get inside the ruins."
"Why?"
"Because there was a door. I don't know what kind of material it's made of, the door."
The door... that's the entrance to the ruins.
But I don't think that's any more heterogeneous.
"When she stood in front of the door, something shining from it appeared. Two lumps of shining power, white and black, moved by themselves and entered her body."
"I said... what happened after that?"
"Nothing happened, and he spent the rest of his life on adventures."
"Hmm...."
Isn't it a lot stronger...?
Somehow, I feel like there's something going on between Rifa and Nia.
"And the power that has entered my great-grandmother's body over the years must have awakened on your behalf..."
"... what did your mother think? I had these ears when I was born."
Sheena smiles bitterly when Rifa touches an ear that resembles an animal.
"I've seen a lot of strange things, and I wasn't so surprised. Rather, I was most surprised that I was a twin."
"Yes, what..."
"Rather, I'm glad it wasn't a curse or a cursed treasure relationship. Honestly, before I realized you guys existed, I was with my husband in a cursed underground labyrinth....."
"Mom, I think you should have a little bit of a crisis!?"
"We almost got cursed...!?"
"Amazing, amazing, Sheena-san...!"
"The kite is breaking..."
It's a cursed underground labyrinth, isn't it? It's amazing.
"And before you were born, I had a strange dream."
"Dream?"
With Nia tilting her neck, Sheena speaks after drinking tea.
"The dream of a white and black lion defending the empty throne."
!?
"You still have an idea, don't you?"
Is that so?
She nods when she looks at the referee confused.
When did you encounter it... or did you come into contact in another way?
"I still remember what he told me."
"What did you say?"
"Sorry, son of a bitch. Forgive me for my powerful foolishness." It was just a word, but it is a memory so vivid that it cannot be truncated with dreams. "
——— Was there any doubt about the beast that gave power to Reefa and Nia?
No, at the time of apologizing to humans in the first place, it might be a friendly god beast.
Perhaps this should be looked into more closely.
"If you think about it now, that lion is the source of your power. And in the ruins lies the beast of God, the source of power."
"Where is the ruins, Sheena?"
"Over there."
Sheena points her finger diagonally to the left.
... hmm? I'd like you to give me a place name instead of a direction?
"My great-grandmother lived in a place with such a mysterious ruin. I've been to the ruins, and I'm actually looking at the door."
"I didn't know there was such a place...."
"Yeah, I thought I knew everything running around here...."
Sheena smiles bitterly at Rifa and Nia's words.
"You already know that, don't you?"
Eh?
"A rift in the forest. There's a cave beneath it where the ruins are. It's so high, it's so dangerous that I kept you away from me when I was a kid."
Er!?
I see. Was it true that Rifa and Nia were angry?
Then we have to look into it.
"It's time for you to know what your power is."
"Can I come in there?"
"Yeah, maybe you'll open those doors."
Indeed, the two of us with the power of the Beast might be able to open it.
... is it okay that we have decided on our future policy?
Then, after Sheena, who had corrected her residence, looked around at us, she said something.
"But it's dangerous to dive into the ruins without any knowledge, so you need to be prepared. So..."
"Best regards...!"
"I'm... huh?"
"You can teach me your exploration know-how...!"
Eh, eh?
It may be useful for future adventurer activities and as a servant.
Above all, I would definitely like to ask you to be a professor because I am interested in such a field...!
"Where are Rifa and Nia?"
When Sheena looked at them confused, Rifa and Nia looked disgusted.
"If Kite remembers, okay?"
"I'm sick, too."
"Why are you guys so...!"
"Ababba!?"
While Sheena is hanging a splendid iron claw between the two of us, I'll bring something from the room where the luggage is.
I put a little black magic tool on the table, palm-sized, and I talked to Sheena, who liberated Rifa and Nia.
"Oh, Kate, what is that?"
"It is a communication magic instrument. My friend has a friend who seems to like the story, so I wanted to let him know."
"Really? Who is this person?"
You can't just let strangers talk to you all of a sudden.
I'll tell you all about her here.
"She is the hero of the kingdom of Filgen and my other lord."
"Is it a girl?"
"Yes? My name is Chisato."
As she nodded with her neck tilted, Sheena's eyes became as sharp as an eagle for a moment.
"I don't mind. Will the magic of magic instruments be okay?"
"Yes, I'm not proud, but I'm a good magic battery."
"It's not bragging, it's bullying, Kate...."
I sat at the table listening to Schiff's sharp thunder, and I put magic in my magic tool.
Activate the magic tool with a familiar hand, and connect the communication to the terminal that is a single crack.
Then, after a few seconds of a lean driving sound, communication with the loose ends.
"Hey, kite-kun. Did you miss my voice? It's unusual for you to contact me. [M] Actually, I was wondering if I could contact you, but if I contact you too much, you seem to be a troublesome person, and I am worried that if I don't hear from you for a long time, I would like to have regular survival reports like this. But I'm so glad you called."
Yeah, that's right.
I didn't know what I was saying at first, but I'm glad you're doing well.
I've been busy the last few days, so I couldn't get in touch.
I feel like I haven't spoken to you in a while.
"I have someone I'd like to introduce you to. May I?"
"... uh, thru? Yes, but... who?"
After all, I turned the mic part of the magic tool toward Sheena, worrying about her who was upset.
She speaks to Mike with a smile on her face.
"Hello."
"Ah, hello.... eh, who?"
I'm Lifa's mother.
…… ... what do you mean!? Kite-kun!? "
I was surprised to introduce Sheena again to Chisato, who was confused.
