174 – Lawsuit (9)

There were no clues. It’s just a feeling.

For some reason, Iva looked so pitiful for Rumia who was treating her. Somewhere. She has an attitude like a puppy that hasn’t seen her owner in a long time. Standing in front of Eva, she always had a mischievous smile. There was a peculiar bitterness beneath her.

Aura that lingers on a person who is no longer childish and bright, who has gone beyond being a girl and has become a woman.

It was pathetic.

“Rumia.”

“Yes? Why…?”

When Iva called out to Lumia, she lowered her gaze and tilted her head. It sounded like a dog playing with charms. Her soft-looking ears swayed in the wind.

“How are you going to open the rift?”

Rumia’s movements stiffened. I could feel the cold and lonely moonlight in her gaze toward Eva. But that’s for a while. Rumia raised the corner of her mouth vigorously again.

“Oh, since when did you know?”

“I saw it, was it real?”

“…You’re messing around.”

“hahahaha, you’ve always had this kind of personality.”

From the first meeting with her, she always teased and joked around. Eva smiled as she recalled that time. Rumia started walking again. Eva took her hand and followed it.

Rumia read compassion from his touch. Between her affectionate fingers, she felt worried that she might fall. At the same time as supporting her so that she would not fall, she gestured for her not to fall.

“Iva-sama… You don’t want to go back, do you?”

“It can’t be. There’s still a lot to do there.”

“The trial… You mean?”

“Yes, there is that too. The elves I slaughtered… As well.”

Iva calmly chewed on the name of the race.

How should she apologize? Is an apology a possible issue?

“All will be well.”

Iva thought that Rumia’s words were a hopeless affirmation. Her warm smile turned into a sneer in an instant.

“You can do that because you know the future.”

“No. It’s because I know you.”

There was confidence in Rumia’s words. Was it because she knew the future or because she believed in herself no matter what she said. She couldn’t tell from this. Still, these are the words of a man of the future who knows the future. Might be worth believing

Iva felt at ease with that infinite positivity.

“Since we know Lady Leeva’s heart and know the actions she takes in that heart, the merit that even Lady Leeba herself did not know will eventually return to Lady Leeba. So everything will be fine for Lady Leeba. Lady Leeba’s future is good. It will. I know.”

It also sounded like a kind of prayer.

“Iva will be fine.”

Eva led her with her smile. Light footsteps piled up on the metal fence bathed in moonlight.

Rumia smiled like the moon and did not stop her steps, as if she was on the verge of going around the garden. Eva also followed suit.

“I’m sure you’ll be happy.”

Her affirmation was repeated endlessly. She was to the point where Eva felt burdened.

“I have nothing to give you, just stop.”

“You don’t have to give me anything. I’ve already received a lot.”

Rumia grinned and begged Eva.

“Iva-sama, why don’t you try talking to me?”

“What?”

“It can be good. It can be happy.”

Eva frowned in embarrassment. She was awkward

“Do I have to say that?”

“Why are you like that when you usually say one more thing?”

She felt strange hearing that from a real dog. Iva smiled and parted her lips.

“Yes, all will be well and all will be happy. I bet.”

“That’s a self-help tone. Again.”

Iva slightly glared at Rumia in protest. However, there was no withdrawal. Only the unchanging smile returned.

“Be sure. I mean it. Someone who knows both you and the future here vouches for it?”

The end of the fence was visible before I knew it. If I took even one more step, it was a fall. Below was an enchanting and distant night sky. With her eyes on the end, Iba finally realized that this place was an island in the sky.

A place isolated from the mainland that is difficult to reach. A place that is difficult to re-enter once you enter. Why did you need a place like this? There was no way to know about this.

Why is Rumia here? Why did he insist on doing the work of a slave-like servant and stay here? Is she to greet her or see her off?

From noble mtl dot com

Or is it just to meet her?

I had no way of knowing this.

Just one thing, he clearly realized that she believed in him.

Behind the infinite positivity that Rumia pours out, I felt a strange pathetic feeling. At the edge of her land, Rumia held her Iva’s hand tightly.

“Yes… Tomorrow will be better than today.”

She tried to trust herself by relying on the trust of others, now that she had lost her own trust in me.

“Because my stomach hurts when I see cubs who live better than me!! I have to live so damn well to make sure that doesn’t happen!!”

I felt relieved after shouting once. Eva laughed hahahaha.

The moon is bright and the night is dark. The wind was chilly, so Iva said her goodbyes to Rumia.

“See you tomorrow.”

“Yes! See you tomorrow!”

Compared to her mouth saying see you tomorrow, her body was different. Her body frankly waggled her tail, her arms wrapped around Eva’s neck and her legs wrapped around her waist. With the curves characteristic of a moderately-grown woman and the weight that came from them, Eva struggled to balance her.

“You said hello!”

“It’s disappointing to say hello with only words! Say hello with your body!”

“You bastard, have you really become so arrogant?!”

After spending a reasonable amount of time using her whole body to get rid of the approaching Lumia, Iva was able to return to her room.

She was tired. Even though I slept just yesterday.

‘Oh, originally, people sleep once a day.’

I just made that excuse yesterday and forgot about it. It’s scary what her lifestyle is like. Eva began unbuttoning her shirt and changing her clothes to get her dressed. However, in the meantime, a being in her bed caught her gaze.

“…Innis?”

Blonde hair radiated a secret glow even in the dark. She was clear Innis was lying in bed trying to sleep. This must be her own room. Eva watched her puzzled.

Looking closely, it was a very thin outfit. She was wearing a dress that showed off her figure and exposure, like something in the middle between her pajamas and her underwear. She radiated her charm without being able to properly cover her voluptuous body, which anyone would swallow dry saliva.

What is it?

Eva frowned at her. She clicked her tongue and dragged her chair, feeling dejected that someone had taken her bed. She sat there and opened her book.

Innis’s face looked relaxed. With that as a background, Eva devoured her book.

“Crack… What?”

Shortly after Lila is rescued from the woods.

She drank warm soup and warmed up by the campfire while listening to the story of the rescued teacher.

“Did I fall for that kind of place?”

She knew the term rift itself because she was Lyla, who had lived as a disciple under Minerva, who was studying this world.

Cracks, gaps in time and space.

A dimensional cliff where you can come and go to all kinds of different worlds without the limitations of time and space. Just as the sea can purify itself of its filth, it heals itself because it is an error in the world.

It was a term that existed only in theory.

To think he fell into such a crack. Laila was hard to believe.

“Well then, where are Lilia-senpai and Iba-san right now?”

Jerbug. Footsteps were heard behind the campfire. As I turned my gaze along it, I saw a prophet wearing a hood.

“Sister!”

Unlike before, it wasn’t a hood with a recognition impediment attached. The Prophet answered Layla’s question.

“It’s in the future.”

“…Yes?”

She let out a deep sigh.

“I saw it through prophecy. I kept dreaming and recording it for several nights. How much effort I put into getting to the very distant future… Lila. It’s the same case as you.”

Sitting next to Lila, the Prophet pulled a leather bottle from her bosom. She thought it was alcohol, judging by the smell she felt when she opened the lid.

“Gulp… Whoa! I fell into the future through a rift. I don’t know the location. I didn’t expect anything at all. But I was able to see it with my own eyes, so the scenery of this world must be correct.”

“The future… How much?”

Lyla asked with apprehension.

“I don’t know the details… Maybe, 10 years from now.”

She swallowed her breath. She answered casually, but the years melted inside her were not light. She was cramped

“How to get back on your own…”

“No. The only solution that exists right now is to wait.”

There was no answer. In her suffocation, Lila gulped down her elongated soup.

“Ah!”

She was hot and burned her tongue. This little burn mixed with memories of being with someone once caused great pain.

Then should we wait like this for ten years? Are they wasting ten years of time? It was quite a long time in the human worldview, not the elves worldview. The time when rivers and mountains change once.

I have no choice but to believe and wait. So effortlessly?

The person he admired and the person he recognized went missing at the same time.

How should I explain to my family? Just wait? Irresponsible

All of the candidates for this generation of warriors have gone missing, so how will the church accept this?

At that time, was there really no way to stop Eva? Can you say for sure that you are not at all responsible for this?

An accident followed an accident.

Thoughts connect memories of accidents, and that leads to responsibility.

Lyla thought.

If you have patience, you can do it.

But she wasn’t willing to let it go.

I am proud of myself.

That person made it that way.

Do nobles shirk responsibility? Forgetting grace, forgetting love, and living while giving up?

No.

The behavior of a worthy person is not like that.

So you have to take responsibility and prove your dignity.

With none other than this hand.

Lila clenched her fists. Her heart burned like a flame in front of her eyes.

“… Over there.”

“So that’s what I’m saying~”

Minerva cut Layla off. There was an unusual weight and authority in his languid voice.

“We’re trying to devise a way to bring them back~ Exploring the rift~ How about it~?”

“…Us?”

“Yes~ The green witch also did it~ Wow! Applause!”

“Your sister does it?”

Lyla asked, startled. Because she seemed completely uninterested in her personality.

“That could be true! It’s not like I’m ungrateful. I burned down the world capital and cleaned up all the hateful elves, so I’m gracious!”

“Oh no, that’s not what it sounds like!”

“Even Lila thought of me that way…”

She must be a solemn prophet, but why is she in this position? The Prophet fell into melancholy. Minerva laughed and continued her proposal.

“To be honest~ I can’t say that it will be successful~ I don’t know how long it will take~ All the hypotheses I’ve thought of may be wrong~ Rather, it’s just a waste of time researching this and I don’t know if ten years will pass~”

Minerva’s eyes fell on Lyla.

“Layla, you’re still young~? Your future is bright~ You don’t have to match my inquisitive mind or her sister’s debt settlement~”

It was a cold and rational look typical of witches.

“Do you want to come with me?”

Lyla responded passionately to those eyes.

“Of course.”

“That’s bullsh*t.”

Lilia closed the book she had been reading without hesitation. She read all the books that seemed useful, but in the end she couldn’t find anything about the magic of going back in time.

On the contrary, there were only sounds that scratched the nerves. As it is Lilia’s villa, words for Lilia who will read this document.

-One day you will abandon Eba. Be prepared for that time.

It was a word close to a curse. Is your future self telling you that you have a grudge against your past self?

“I’m dumping Eva? Damn it, he’s going to leave me.”

Because of marriage… Such a dog thing.

The heat has spread. Lillia rose fiercely.

“Oh, that’s embarrassing… I have to go see that bastard.”

At times like this, you need to meet people. The person who is the cause of your anger right now and whose anger will disappear as soon as you meet him. Iba.

You dumped him? It’s nonsense. Of course it’s bullsh*t. That’s also true, because now Lilia is determined to give Eva her reward for the first time in a while.

“Marriage… Can’t be done. We need to tie him up.”

Make sure she remembers who helps her sleep. Lilia walked proudly through the night hallways and hummed her song.

“This bastard, the owner is here…”

Knocked up. She opened the door roughly and stepped into Eva’s room.

“… Everything?”

The first thing that caught my eye was the person on the bed. It wasn’t Eva. It was all too obvious from her clothes and her body shape that she was a woman. She repeated that the fat of her upper body, which had an overwhelming mass compared to herself, lifted and lowered as she breathed. She looked very attractive even though the exercise was not a big deal.

“Why is he here?”

“Sure.”

Eva, who was reading her book, answered calmly.

The night was still deepening.
