Come to think of it.
With the communication now finished and things settling down, I decided to ask something I was curious about. Somehow, Kurarin was still here.
"Come to think of it, is Christia's barrier okay even without you, Kurarin?"
"It's not okay."
"Oof..."
"So, I want you to give this to Edmonmon."
Kurarin handed me a notebook. There were many detailed notes written inside. But this...
"Kurarin, this is written in Japanese. The former headmaster probably can't read it, right?"
"Is that so?"
Since there was no other choice, I attempted to translate it. However...
"Kurarin."
"What's up?"
"Isn't this something we shouldn't give to the former headmaster?"
I didn't want to know. That something like that would be in Christia Castle... If there's time, I should neutralize it... For now, what I should do is...
"Alphage-sama! Alphage-samaaaaa!! Oh, and also Aldin-samaaaa!!"
"Yes, yes, what is it?"
"Just 'also'..."
Aldin-sama had tears in his eyes. I'm sorry.
"I'm sorry. My true feelings just slipped out☆"
Aldin-sama looked like he was about to cry. My attempt at consolation fell flat. Before digging a deeper hole, I decided to talk to Aldin-sama.
"I'm sorry. Some troubling facts have come to light, so I thought I should inform you."
"I have a bad feeling about this."
"Christia Castle can fly."
“”Huh?””
“Christia Castle can fly. In the air, I mean.”
“”Eh??””
I didn't want to know. But it's the truth. Christia Castle was a mobile fortress. If the former headmaster finds out, it's definitely going to be activated! That guy will cause chaos!!
And there are outrageous weapons too... The world might be destroyed by Christia Castle!!
"................ Your solution?!"
"I'll find time to destroy or dismantle it!"
I raised my hand and answered.
"Actually, I'd like to repurpose the power from Christia's underground for the airship we proposed the other day."
"I'll permit it. Rather, I'd prefer you to remove it. It feels ominous."
"Understood!"
After confirming with Kurarin, I decided to translate only the necessary parts of Kurarin's notebook and hand it to the former headmaster.
"Kurarin made it, right? Is it okay to destroy it?"
"We have no plans to fight anymore, so as long as the barrier remains, it's fine."
"I see."
It seems Kurarin has no attachment to it. Suddenly, I had a question, so I asked.
"Does Kurarin have any children?"
"Kurarin used to be the King of Christia."
“””Ehh?”””
The king of Kristia... in other words...
"... So when Aldin-sama and Alphage-sama get older, they'll become like Kurarin?"
"”We won’t!””
However, upon closer inspection of Kurarin's face, there was no resemblance at all.
"The old man couldn't age anymore due to some magical item, so he must have been the parent of the king from many generations ago."
The former headmaster came over with a grin. Seriously?
"Well, it seems like the Christia rRoyal family forgot about it. How long has that old man been alive?"
It seems Kurarin passed the baton to Kuronosuke-san. Godless has completely taken Kuronosuke-san as its master and has transformed into a proper sword to match Kuronosuke-san.
"I cannot die... I became immortal during the era of the Salvation Saintess. To think I would meet the niece of my former master, one does live quite long."
"Eh!? Kuronosuke-san, you knew Koto Neechan!?"
"Aye. Did I not mention it?"
"I didn't hear anything!!"
"... My apologies. I thought I had mentioned it."
Kuronosuke-san shared stories about Koto Neechan. At first... the impact of meeting her while wearing the initial expressionless mask was memorable.
A high school girl who constantly wears a mask... what's up with that?
And then, the revelation of the Salvation Saintess’ unusual antics. What were you doing, Koto Neechan!!
Stop it!! My life points are zero!!
"As expected of Rosarin’s aunt."
"Indeed. She's truly a relative of Miss Rosarin."
"It can't be helped if she's Rosarin’s relative!"
"What do you mean by that!!?"
My outcry echoed around.
