When I woke up, a once familiar ceiling jumped into my eyes.

I can't go wrong here. This is my room in Lyell's mansion.

"Why, here..."

I'm 600 layers of the world tree, and I should have been helping the God of Discipline.

At the end of the day, the world tree unleashed the power it takes in, burning its eyes and passing out by its flashes.

To move from there to Lyell's mansion, you should need to spend nearly a month traveling.

"Did you wake up?

From beside me like that, I heard a tired voice.

This also sounds familiar. Maxwell's voice.

"Oh, Maxwell? Oh my goodness - oh my goodness!?

What I saw with my gaze at you was Maxwell's face, swelling his cheeks to the bread.

"What happened to that face, the raid!?

"To Maria..."

"Oh, oh... because you found out"

Maxwell conspired with me and had been cheating on my people for about eight years.

It's not hard to imagine him being the oldest accomplice to be pursued more than I have passed out.

"Nevertheless, you've been hit so hard"

"Well, I don't have a choice. If Retina could have stopped crying, she could have died."

"Is Retina here?"

"I flew to Verito to pick her up. Then that God of Discipline shows up in front of you. I left them and disappeared."

"That... took a lot of work"

You mean you pushed us into Maxwell when we passed out? Either way, if you went to Berito, you must have seen that tragedy.

"How was Berito?

"When I arrived, I barely moved in a calming direction. Lord Ashera took the lead, so the confusion was minimal."

"Well, good for you. What about the breaking gods? What happened to the world tree?

"The figure of Yuri, the God of Discipline, soon disappeared. And the world tree, but the dragon god Bahamut has assimilated and supported the world tree."

"Is that okay!?

"Ast, who came to explain later... Lord Hastar told me that if the world tree could become independent, it would come crawling out on its own. Shiitashi comes with origami."

"Then it's okay...... is it?

Anyway, I guess the world tree means it's safe. So our efforts weren't in vain.

"What about Cortina and Finia?

"I woke up before you did, and now I'm having lunch in the dining room. Both are fine."

"Oh, that's good. Really good."

It was safe in that flash, so that the breaking divine kingdom fulfilled its role perfectly.

You have to thank those gods for that.

If it weren't for her over there, Berito would have perished.

No, it would have taken a lot of damage to this world itself.

After all, God's name is not Dada, because he did it while protecting us.

That's when I heard knocking on the door.

"Go ahead -"

"You're awake."

Maria was the one who came into the room saying that.

Speaking of which, why was Maxwell in my room and Maria not there?

Does it still affect who I am? Thinking about it, do I still have to make the choice to leave the mansion?

"Ah, Maria's out of magic. It's not like a well-timed visitor healed you."

You read my thoughts like that, and Maxwell struck me as if to take them in.

If you ask me, when we rushed to this village, Maria was on the verge of depleting her magic.

Even though there was a brief rest after that, if Kufal went on to attack, fly Lyell by the magic of the transfer (teleport), and rescue the villagers, there's no way he couldn't get around to me.

If Maxwell brought me back at that time, that's also why I'm convinced he left healing magic to him.

"Uh, my mother. - Uh, Maria?

"I don't care either way. Easy to call."

"Well, I'm sorry I kept my mouth shut. I can't tell you."

"I know that, too. I'm not convinced, but I know how you feel."

So peculiar, slap me on the cheek with weak force.

There was her confusion and tenderness to care for me.

"That's it. You're Reid, and you're my daughter Nicole at the same time. We won't be comfortable with each other any time soon."

"Yeah, me... I don't know how to talk either"

Until now, in front of them, I had taken care of it and spoken in a woman's tone.

But now that I'm known as Reid, I also feel I have to talk to him in a man's tone rather.

"You're a woman now, so you can talk in a woman's tone? Whatever, even a cuter tone and trick."

"No, that's trouble"

I guess on purpose, with tea glare, Maria says that.

I shook my head with a troubled face and rejected the proposal.

Maria then gently looks back and points beyond the door.

There was a figure of Lyell roaming around, like a bear captured and caged.

"Look, you come in too"

"Lyell."

"That, Reid...... no, Nicole?

"... Nicole is fine. Because I'm definitely your daughter."

"Really? So, Nicole, is your body okay?

"Yeah, no problem. I just couldn't do it in Berito for a second."

"You wouldn't say that's okay, would you?

Lyell talks to me in an unscrupulous manner, but definitely in a worrying father's manner.

There was no rejection or separation that I feared.

"Lyell, can I be my daughter?

"Oh, I accepted. So would Maria, right?

"Yes."

"Then we're your parents, and this is your house. Don't hesitate."

"Oh, yeah... Oh, yeah..."

Lyell tells me 'My House' and I have tears in my eyes with a jitter.

That couldn't have been held in a previous life, it's a family home. I recognize myself without having to lose it and relieve myself from the bottom of my heart.

Yeah, I'm definitely Lyle and Maria's daughter. I could now accept that in a real sense.

"There you are. Tina and Finia will be waiting for you in the dining room."

"And Retina, too. And Michelle and Cloud are calling."

"And don't forget Gaddles."

Maxwell firmly supplements the words of the Lyells.

Yes, there's a whole bunch of buddies here from previous lives and from this world. Then you'll have to explain it through my mouth.
