The Tale of the Teapot Hero’s Revenge

"Ha..., ha... Ya finally fell out..."

"I reviewed it, Toka. She can do it."

"That's a bad one, Mr. Toka, even though it's much tinier than Given's."

I grabbed Melo and Mr. Quina on both shoulders, each with a constant breath of toca.

I just walked through a rock like no normal person could walk, freeing the two of them to collapse.

By picking up Mr. Quina, one more kid has to be transported.

What a cluttered treatment to hold Beato with one hand. I'm sorry to die, but I pushed Mr. Quina's haul (nagging) to Toka, who was originally in charge of Melo with his right shoulder.

Yeah, to be honest, I'm so sorry.

Well, leave it to your sister you can count on, or the toca you slapped Dawn in the chest with is a toca, and don't worry about it.

"Ha-ha, ha-ha..., take a break..."

"Okay, good luck with that. Come on, I'll do it for you."

"Stop..., seriously..., I'm stuck, I'm stuck..."

Melo squirts the head of a toca that squirts in a dirt position.

That kid, you're not reluctant against Hontoka, are you?

Me and Beatto will be fine for treating me like I'm older.

I guess that means we're close.

... Now, during the short break, I have a question for Mr. Quina.

"Mr. Quina, you're from Paradise, aren't you? After I see the mountains, I'm going to send Mr. Quina home first. If you take a break at home, I'm sure you'll get your memories back one by one."

"Something's wrong with you. You all look like hasty travelers, but I can't believe you stopped by for Givens..."

"Never mind. I can't tell you the details, but I'm in the middle of a dangerous journey, and I have plans to have a smaller number of people to protect when I have to."

"Still, thank you, suss. Even though I'm a benefactor of my life, I'm so grateful to Mr. Killier."

"... if you're grateful, make him a Beat"

'Cause I would normally have abandoned Beat if he hadn't.

"Of course I appreciate it, sss. Thank you, Mr. Beat."

"... eh"

Grateful, Beato giggles as the princess snuggles at me.

Nevertheless, it was convenient that Mr. Quina's memory had disappeared.

A member of Paradise could have known Reacher's face, which was kept a secret.

"So, this is a familiar place where Mr. Quina lived..."

"It was the village of Rocca where Given was born and raised. From the village of Leno at the east foot of the mountain range, we went about a day north, sss."

"I see, is it the village of Lino first? You're close."

"It's close, sss. We crossed this mountain range from the end of the mountain road."

Then it would be convenient or I wouldn't make an extra stop.

"... All right. Toka, the break is over. Hurry up."

"Wow..., Rikai..."

After lunch the next day, we finally entered Paradise after finishing our crossing the mountain.

Until the destination Pireapolis, there's still a distance, though.

At the end of the mountain path, the village of Leno feels like an idyllic mountain village with wooden buildings.

It must be one of the entrances to the paradise, but the east route is too dangerous, so it's not a tiny mess.

I wonder if there are just a few more facilities for travellers than in other villages.

I just wonder if it's a unique sight in the Eternal Neutral Country of Paradise that subhumans and humans normally coexist with.

The day is already starting to tilt, Toka is glocky when she uses her strength, and I decided to stay in this village today.

When you open the doors of the proper lodgings on your eyes,

"Yes, there you are. That's unusual, traveler."

It was the demonic aunt who greeted me.

I can't think on this side of the mountain range, but it's normal in paradise, isn't it?

"I'd like two rooms for five, two and three, please, are you free?

"That's already ragged, it's a country inn. Steady, room for two. Hey... Mm-hmm. Do I have to get the sheets changed?

... I feel like I've been told something similar before.

I wonder if the aunt in the inn is like this regardless of race.

I wonder what Beato is blushing at, too.

"By the way, travelers, what are you doing in this country? There's really nothing but rarely used hiking trails, is there?

"Givens, the village of Rocca is my hometown. I'm on my way to get these people to send me. What?"

"Oh, really?... but, you know, you should stop going, right?

As soon as the name of the village of Rocca came out, a slight grin disappeared from your face.

"Stop it, is something wrong?

"I'm curious, it means so much..."

"No, it's not a lot of wacko, Auntie. I'm surprised."

No one would have heard me. I looked around, and then, for some reason, I invited him in and whispered.

"'Cause that village, it was destroyed three years ago, right? There's only ruins left, and it's dangerous. I'm not gonna say anything wrong, so stop."

"... ho, doomed... sss?

The information my aunt told me was too shocking for Mr. Quina.

"Dear Leeche, Mr. Beato has returned to Paradise."

"Yep. Beat is a really cute little sister to come back from."

In the private room of the Virgin Reache, the cleric Soma kneels before her.

Standing in lieu of Reacher is Noah the Side Server.

The Virgin, with her sister's name in her mouth, was grinning as if she were an angel.

"Now that girl is... the village of Lino, you're around. We know the approximate location because we're on this side of the mountain range."

"I'm surprised...... Is it a miracle that happens only to twins when you know where you are even far away?"

"It's a miracle that only happens to the Virgin. A miracle that can only be done to that girl and me, the two Virgins. In fact, this never happened until that girl woke up."

When Beat awakened to the power of the Virgin in his battle with Lou Golf.

At that moment, Leiche felt her sister awake and sifted in joy.

He was pleased that years of planning had advanced to the final stage and at the same time feared failure.

I no longer choose the means.

An angelic smile made the Virgin give her life to the priest Soma.

"Soma, you're bringing your sister here. With the power of [Gifts] I gave you."

"Yeah, yeah, of course. I was wondering if you could lend me about three people, including Ares? It's the number of limits I can carry (...) at this distance."

"Of course, we won't spare you the power of war. Whatever the means. I'm bringing my sister here alive anyway."

"With all due respect, Virgin..."

The cleric bows his head deeply and leaves the Virgin's private room.

Rieche, the Virgin who drops off that back, kept smiling as if she had pasted it.
