72 Because Of My Parents.
A few days after fighting Teatania and talking to Mizuki. Shuiming was out of town to gather information about the tall shadows.
Whether most of them have cooled down now, or are they not going to make contact from the beginning, the gendarmerie has also been able to show up since then, and both Shuiming and Fermenia are now walking freely out of the city.
The immediate goal was to catch the tall shadows, regardless of the mastermind, and for once, I had a clue about those who wanted to, but I wanted to grab as much material as I could to hunt them down.
We split up with Fermenia to gather information, and now we were on our way home with Trinity, who rendezvous on our way back to base.
Mizuming walks carelessly and today tells Trinity II, dressed in an unbalanced outfit called a sword on her uniform, as impressed.
"I think I'll remember the geography of Imperial Capital."
"Really? I think if we walk around normally, we'll remember it naturally."
Trinity says yes, there's nothing to it. He was walking alone in the city today to learn how to make an Imperial City.
"Really? You honorable student."
When he poked lightly with his urine and fist, Trinity grinned. And he turns, he gets a serious look,
"Speaking of which, Shuiming. You did say you were looking for a way back into our world, didn't you?
"Yeah, I want to go home anyway. Oh, sure, I'll call you guys when they find you."
"Are you okay? Can you find it?"
"Don't you lick it? Who do you think I am?"
Yes, when he slaps his chest reliably, Trinity suddenly laughs out at what's funny.
"Mizumi, that's kind of weird, though."
"What is it?
"You said you didn't want danger, but you're jumping into danger from yourself."
"I heard that sermon before.... you have to risk it, you don't get what you want."
"You want to go home that far?
"What, are you crazy?
"No, this world has no clue like the other one, so I thought it might be easier for you."
As Trinity looked up into the sky, Shuiming set aside,
"It's easier over there, huh? It's full of delicious monkeys."
"Are you struggling right now to have fun?
"Human. That's what it is. That's why we have the development of modern civilization."
"Right. It sure is."
"As far as I'm concerned, it would be awesome if it developed a little slower and you wouldn't stick your neck in anywhere - that would help... anyway"
Shuiming tells her to mock herself so. And now I exhale a sigh that looks serious, like I have feelings.
"Plus, I've got a lot left over."
"Right..."
Trinity lays her eyes down on the words of Shuiming. After all, his head would be heavy, considering who he has also left behind. Shuiming is above the heavenly solitude and somewhat easier than Trinity II, but with his family in the other world, he has probably had many thoughts. The fact that he is worried about it, rather than not being able to see him anymore, is who made him quiet now.
"I will contact you first when I can find that help and come and go, so stay tuned."
"hehe, thanks"
In the air mixed with loneliness, at the entrance to the alley to get to the house when I was walking, there was someone I knew. Wandering around looking around is a luxurious body with blonde hair and blue eyes. And the brilliant man...
"That's unusual, are you with a man today"
It was Elliot Austin, the brave man of the Holy See, who noticed and spoke sarcastically to the Mizumings.
Triju, who meets him for the first time, perceives that he apparently knows him and asks Shuiming for an introduction.
"Shuiming, what about him?
"You don't know. He doesn't even know what this looks like."
"No. I hope you're not lying plainly."
That's what I said, Elliot, with a pulled smile. That's what Trinity asks him.
"I knew you knew him?
"... very unwillingly."
"That's my dialogue. You're a rude man. Really."
At such a rate that Elliot is suppressing his anger, he turns his blamed gaze.
Even as he is exposed to complaints and gaze, Shuiming introduces Elliot to Trinity.
"I hear this colored man is a brave man called in the Holy Service El Maiden."
"Then he..."
and Trinity out in front of Elliot, also briefly surprised by the encounter.
"My name is Reggie Shanna. Nice to meet you."
"- Reggie? Could you be the brave one called in Astel..."
If the name sounds familiar, or if Elliot speaks as he asks, Trinity agrees.
Elliot then bows her head politely, greeting her first and sprinkling.
"I'm Elliot Austin. I've heard rumors about you, you've defeated the Demon General of everything, right?
"No, I didn't actually do that..."
To the bewildered Elliot, Trinity explains that time with a troubled sigh.
... Eventually, when Trinity finished talking about the revealing of one thing, Elliot even gave a depressing look and sighed.
"... I see. He said he got caught up in politics. You're a disaster, too."
"So it's not true what they're saying right now."
All told, Trinity's expression reveals the color of the sinking. After all, the fact that it was celebrated with unintentional rumors seems to be giving him considerable hard work. The roots are just serious, and I can't help it. Bright brown glowing eyes are now shaking somewhere dark.
Did Elliot also see his mood like that? Use less harsh voices to advise him.
"I'd advise you old-fashioned, but you better not let those people like you. The powerful are people who want to use the powerful."
"Are you familiar with that?
"Well, there you go."
Elliot sighs like a pioneer, slightly puking. The way it is, he may have gone through those hardships in the world where he was.
"That's amazing. I was a student who had no power in the world I was in, so I'm late to deal with it."
When Trinity said so, Elliot looked surprised and
"... Really? You look like you're doing a good job."
"Really? That would have been nice."
With that said, when Trinity made a natural grin, as usual, Elliot suddenly wandered when she saw it.
"What's going on?
Regardless of Trinity's inquiry, Elliot turns to Mizumi. And you create a partition on your mouth with your hands as you whisper,
"This is kind of devastating."
"Don't turn red..."
Look at Elliot's expression, sighing watery. I was stunned by his attitude, but in fact I can't laugh because I mean it Trinity's smile works for a guy too. Even Trinity, which uses it unconsciously, is Trinity.
"Mr. Austin. Whatever, thanks."
"Hehe, I'm in a situation where I can't even tell you about people right now. And don't worry about me, Elliot."
Elliot flaunts her shoulders to show a friendly attitude. Seeing them like that, Shuiming exhaled, "Ho," as she was somewhere impressed.
"... you guys are going to like it."
"Much more so than you."
To Elliot, who turns a disgusting gaze, Shuiming returns a "false alarm". Then Elliot either realizes something or alternates between Shuiming and Trinity's face.
Speaking of which, do you guys know each other? Thank you. I can't read the connection. "
"I'm a little tied to this guy."
"On edge... isn't that a good idea to call this brave guy anyway?
"... is that it? He told you to go away and call him respectful about yourself?
"Will you stop? I'll have to spend the rest of my life standing goosebumps when you say that to me."
"Ho. Then cross the line. - This is Elliot. Please stay scared for the rest of your life."
"Wow..."
Elliot with a shoulder for this lookout, in response to Shuiming's hateful salutation. Surprisingly, Nori is a good man.
"... I want to ask you something too, why are you here?
"No, because I heard you were around here. I came to see what kind of place you live."
"You're my favorite."
Shuiming remembers to say so when she was in a bad mood.
"No, I hear you were active before this"
"You don't like that?
"No, I don't think so."
Trinity eats a bastard because she told a story that only the two of us can understand. He immediately asks Elliot.
"Is something wrong?
"Confront the culprit of the coma that is making a scene in the Imperial City right now. But unfortunately, they ran away again."
"Hmm? Didn't it happen?
"No, we didn't engage. He was just running around like he used to."
Elliot seeps remorse into his sigh. In today's intelligence gathering, Shuiming had heard Elliot had hunted down a tall shadow. The inhabitants of Imperial Capital had honored it, but in fact, they didn't.
"There was also His Royal Highness this time. It wasn't that easy."
"I see. I guess that means a fair amount of users..."
Secondly, Shuiming realizes Elliot is turning a blind eye. It also seems to be somewhere corrective,
"What's up?
"... nothing. Do you think you can take him down?
"I don't know what that line means... but I can't say anything because I don't know what he's capable of."
When Shuiming can't make that speculation, he deliberately takes the impression of making a move. Tall shadows. If you can't catch Elliot or Graziella, you can't be alarmed.
I inadvertently notice signs of someone while we talk like that. When Shui Ming narrowed his eyes and stared in the direction of the unawares, the two men who had belatedly perceived the signs turned in the same direction. With faint signs, someone approaches. Yes. When the three were sure, the person quietly came out of the shadows.
I didn't know Lord Brave had both of them.
"Colonel Rogue?
As Elliot's voice showed, the person approaching was Rogue Zandaik, the man who all-backed his grey-mixed brunette - an imperial soldier.
As you can always see, he is dressed in a military uniform with a black tone and a sword on his lower back. I'm supposed to get the swordswallowing impression from that noisy outing, but for some reason, all I see is the stretched shadows he can take behind me. Is the impression of the person somewhat faint in that way because of the large number of evening influencers created by the West Day?
Are you putting your feet on the ground or not? Rogue walking by in strange footsteps. The tinted eyes were narrowly and sharply squeezed, and the grim looking finesse looked even tougher.
Trinity unexpectedly approaches and brings in a secret story.
(Shuiming, Rogue for sure...)
(Oh......)
Shuiming also told Trinity and the others about the situation around it. Rogue made a mild meeting toward Elliott as Trinity was largely distracted.
"Lord Elliot. Her Royal Highness Princess Graziella is here for you. Hurry up and come to the square."
Did you go this far to reward it? When I hear Graziella's name, Elliot exhales a grand sigh.
"Damn, she's a rough princess."
"I pity you there, too."
"If you feel sorry for me, I'd like you to take my place."
"Sissi, get out of the way."
Yes, even if Shuiming waves to get rid of him, Elliot doesn't look like he cared. I even saw some glossy trick to lift my hair as the sun lit up.
Trinity speaks to him as he tries to return.
"Bye Elliot, if you're on edge again"
"Right. Then do me a favor, Lord Brave Astel."
When Elliot returned such a refreshing goodbye greeting, he left the spot.
Rogue keeps dropping him off, pointing only his thinly open gaze at Mizumi.
"You were a swimey goatee."
"I'm out of time"
"I heard you met that kid before it took Liliana to arrange it, didn't you?
"... Yep"
With Elliot still dropped off, just like Rogue, Waterming doesn't gaze. Against him like that, Rogue turns again.
"When I ask you, do you know where Liliana is right now?
"You don't know me."
"Is that true?
"Yes."
Shuiming nods and turns around in the same way. And
"May I ask you something, too?
"What is it?
"You seem to be looking for her, but if you find her, what are you going to do?
What I used to ask was strictly willed eyes. Often the staggering of gaze continues, but the Rogue answers with a stiff expression.
"I don't think I need to tell you that?
"I'm after the coma killer, too. I'd like to ask you something."
"... it is decided. Let them take responsibility for what they have done. That's all."
"Even if the reason was to protect you?
"Whatever."
Rogue turns his back upside down. The words uttered, like his temperament itself, were rigid. Is that no different than when you cornered her? Then maybe I won't override that will anymore.
But still, Shuiming, I couldn't care less if I didn't say it.
"... may be an extra favor"
"Shuiming?"
Trinity and Rogue turn around. Besides, Shuiming,
"You're her father, aren't you? Then, even if there is no blood connection, if you decide to be the father of that child, you should be the father. At least until the end."
"Isn't that right? If you're her family, aren't you supposed to believe that's there?
Yes, Shuiming speaks out of the heart he held. But Rogue never broke that hard look.
Did your mouth make the heat cool? Shuiming slows her voice down more than she did earlier.
" I think it's odd for a person who hasn't even been a parent to talk about parental responsibility. But if it's a responsibility..."
"- No. Put on the bullshit of what you've done. That's my responsibility as that kid's boss."
That's what Rogue left without looking back. Get in there and say you have a firm resolve.
Still, even if his determination was firm, Mizuming wanted to convey her thoughts. In the end, all I could do was drop that off.
Trinity puts seriousness on her expression sometime and brings her face closer with her face still facing Rogue's back.
"... Shuiming. From what I've heard, I thought he was suspicious."
"You mean the killer? No, the mastermind is not him."
"Really?
"Oh. I'm sure of that. For once, the killer has a hit."
As Shuiming and Trinity exchanged such exchanges, from behind, I heard unrunnable footsteps. I'm late for that realization. Often, I hear a call.
"Lord Swimey! Lord Reggie! Oh, my God!
Turning around, Fermenia was running out of breath.
