Reincarnation Monarch

Episode One Hundred Twenty-nine: Reunion in Hell

"... there he is! Dove! Long time no see!

Gaius shouted aloud as he captured Dove nestled beside the ground, more packed and torn than above, as he was flying at high speeds with Carla.

Then Dove, majestically nestled on a gothic rock skin, smiled and voiced against Gaius as he drew a slower curve than the sky.

"... um. I realize it's been a really long time. Haven't you grown a lot, Gaius?"

Dove stared at Gaius with a caged look of nostalgia.

Then Gaius landed firmly on the ground and said in a slight lighting as he slowly approached the dove.

"Sort of. You probably don't know that by looking at it, do you?

"... right. Suppose we ran into each other all of a sudden all over town, you wouldn't know."

"Right. And Dove hasn't changed."

Then Dove looked up and laughed.

"... that would be so. Because I am the devil. Nothing changes at all in just a few years after a long life."

"Right ~. Ah! Right. I have to introduce you."

When Gaius said so, he looked back and pointed to Carla with his left hand.

"Dove, this is Carla. He's my master's archdeacon. Carla, this is the dove we talked about earlier."

By Gaius' introduction, they shook hands smiling.

"... I've heard of it. Carla the Great Magic Instructor. Right, Gaius, your master."

"Oh, since I was a little girl. Most of the time it was old... no, nothing."

Gaius quickly clasped his mouth, perceiving that Carla's eyes glowed sharply at that moment, although he tried to portray the former Carla in an easy way.

But Dew and Dove, who knew nothing about Gaius's circumstances, asked in surprise.

"... yeah? Lowe... what is that?

"No, no, no, it's nothing. It's nothing, Dove. Hi. I'm getting tired here. I tend to talk about weird things. So never mind. It's really nothing. Really."

Gaius managed to round up the dove by arranging words like rapid-fire cannons.

"... Hmm. Right, you're feeling tired. All right, then let's try to get to Master Delkia's mansion as soon as possible. Get some rest there."

"Oh, right. I'd appreciate it if you would. I've been flying around a lot, so I'm really tired."

"... ok. Then let's say we leave."

"Let's do that. So, is the Delchia Mansion close to here?

Then Dove said with a laugh, pointing to the streets of hell peeking from the rift on the ground.

"... you'll see it over there. You should go first if you want. If you fly fast, you'll be there in seconds."
