"Fair enough. I can't help but let you fight the war theory forever... move on"

Gaius turned to bitterness because he had some empathy for Carmis' argument.

Calmis either knew it or placed it for a beat before starting to talk again.

"... that was... brought by Master Lennon. I don't know exactly where it came from... well probably from the Gardan continent..."

"... I guess. The place of the dragon has always been Gardan. But the question is, how could you turn a thousand-year-old dragon into such a small child? If you make me look like such a little kid, I can see where I can take you, so I know that's why I changed you. But the big question remains, how? There, what do you think? Carmis."

"... I don't know the principle. But it depends on the dragon's tears..."

"It's still that ball...... hey, are dragon tears made by Signus? Of course it's not you, is it?

"... no matter, there is no way I can make something like that without knowing the principles. But... it's the same with Signus..."

"Isn't that a signal? … then… Menontius…"

"I don't know that. I don't know that monster named Menontius."

"... you mean you don't know who made it?

"Yes."

"Then let's change the question. Carmis, who brought that? It's not like Lennon had it originally, is it? Then someone must have given it to Lennon. Is that... is that a signal?

"... right. Signus gave it to Lennon."

"You're the one who connected them?

"That's right. I once trained as a magician under Master Signus. In other words, Master Signus is a master to me. Suddenly that Signus appeared before me already working for Lennon."

"For what?

"Come on... I don't know that. However, Master Signus asked me to meet Master Lennon. That's why I brought you both together. So it was me, as you say, who connected you two."

"You weren't present when you two met?

"I haven't. I was holding back in the other room."

"... wouldn't it be true?

Gaius turned his suspicious eyes to Carmis.

But Calmis took it straight without distracting herself.

"True. Though I am called Lennon's right-hand man by my surroundings, the truth is that I am not so heavily placed. No, I'm not making excuses, but I probably don't think Master Lennon trusts anyone in the truth or anything. That person... is not the kind of person who entrusts his own ambitions to others..."
