Preparing to change the future.
In the morning, I immediately returned to Christia's house and wanted to talk with Rinka...but Rinka's face was kind of pale.
“Rin Neechan… Rosarin-chan is fourteen, right?”
“Yes.”
“Yesterday… was full moon, right?”
“Yep.”
“I… was I summoned by the Kin… by Judas-sama?”
“That’s right.”
“............ Was I summoned in the ‘Wonderful Love ☆ Heart-throbbing ☆ Passionate Magic Academy ☆ The Beneficiary that makes your wish come true ☆’ Heroine position?”
“Bingo.”
“Migyaaaah!? I obviously have no boobies nor charm…… I am lacking in many ways!! Please switch me out with Yue-chan!!”
“Ahhahha. I asked the Gods the same, but I was refused.”
“Nyooo~!!”
Rinka was maddened. I know… I also wouldn’t like to be in the Heroine’s position.
“... Good morning, Rosarin. Rinka-san is… she okay?”
Why do people only ask if you are okay when you obviously aren’t? Is what I would like to ask.
However, when Rinka saw Dirk, she straightened her posture and bowed her head.
“Good moring, Dirk-sama! Please take care of Rin Neechan… Rosalin-chan for many years to come! Please make her happy! I think she will be happy just by having you by her side, though!”
“... Yeah. I swear I will make her happy with everything I have.”
“Alrighty.”
I was somewhat embarrassed. And happy.
“... What a good girl.”
“That’s how you raised me, Rin Neechan!”
“So that’s why you are so amusing, Rinka.”
“‘Morning, Cu-tan. You don’t have to praise me!”
Rinka laughed as Curtis ruffled her hair.
“............... Aren’t they getting strangely along?”
“... They are on the same wavelength.”
“... I see.”
In the lounge of our house, myself, Dirk, my parents, my brother, the capture targets except for Judas-sama, Kanata-san, Shushu-san, Yukihime, Yuro-san, Cidar-kun, and Milfi gathered.
“So, about the true route, right? Have you explained about the Passionate☆Magic Academy?”
“Well, just a little.”
“So that’s where we start, huh.”
“Well, the Rune Earth series was probably created by that very white guy you talked to just before you came over here. And that guy is a God named Shiva.”
“...... I request timeout for little information exchange!”
So, we exchanged information about the game… or rather, I gave her our information.
“......... I’m going to sort out the info for a lil. I made a map. I want to confirm something about the ruins I have marked.”
“OK~”
“... You understand most…… Rin Nee… Rosarin-chan, do you know what is in this place?”
“Here?”
“There is an extra dungeon that opens after you clear all the routes. There are things you'll need for the truth route.”
“Seriously!?”
“Seriously. The entrance cannot be opened without the blessings of all the Spirit Kings.”
“... What is this true route?”
In response to Alphage-sama’s question, Rinka explained that there are stories created by a God based on this world, and that some of them are set in the future. One of those stories is the true route, and she said that if things continue as they are, the world will be driven to the brink of extinction.
“... The reason for this?”
Even the quintessential Alphage-sama looked pale. Rinka said that I have changed the future quite a bit, but she also said that it was not enough because the fundamentals had not changed.
“In four years, the Seal of Evil will be broken. The reason the Evil appeared in the first place is because the seal started to deteriorate. It doesn't matter if Judas-sama is a mixed race or not. So we have to reseal it or think of another way. The extra dungeon is the key to the seal. I remember the whole map, so I'll write it down.”
“By the way, how many floors does the dungeon have?”
“300 underground floors.”
“Too many!!”
“The way back is very short, because there is a teleportation circle.”
“What else can we do?”
“Right now, we need to get the things in the dungeon, but… it's all about timing. The deepest part of the dungeon is the sealed body of an Evil, so if the Evil find out, we will be in big trouble.”
“Shall we make a magic tool to seal our presences from the Evil, so that it will not be aware of us?”
Ernst seemed to have an idea.
“To begin with, is there anyone who has a contract with all the Spirit Kings?”
“You.”
“......... Hah?”
“Rinka, you will contract them.”
“............ Eh? What about you?”
“I have contracts with other spirits, so I will have you contract them.”
“...... I can't get strong enough to go through the ordeal now! I’m 4 years too late!”
“It will be fine. What else do we need?”
“We will need a technical skill or a Revelation to disarm traps. Also, it would be good to have someone with Super Intuition.”
“Super Intuition aside, trap disarming, huh…”
“I can do it a little, but it's not my main focus..."
Hugh muttered. Adeil nodded in agreement.
“If so, I'll get the Revelation of the Trap Master myself. By the way, what are your Revelations, Rosalin-chan?”
“Shiva's Favor, Weapon Master, Magic Visualization, Parallel Thinking, and Parallel Sync.”
“Whoah… Except for Mystia's, all of them are combat oriented. Taking balance into consideration, I should be your support.”
“Ah, Milfi has the Kiss of Awakening.”
“Roger that. I will think about it more.”
“Rinka, you will go with us on tour to contract the Spirit Kings tomorrow.”
“I will die! Impossible! What are you thinking? It’s no different from asking a villager to fight the Demon King with a bamboo spear… no a pencil, ya know!?”
“Don’t worry about it, everything will be fine.”
“Usually, a sentence like that is followed by ‘probably’ or ‘I think’, ya know!!”
Rinka was babbling for a while. However,
“Sorry, give up.”
“Human, knowing when to give up is important.”
“Umm, err, do your best!”
“... I'll help you in any way I can.”
“Why is it that no one says it's impossible, but they're all telling me to give up instead!? Ahh geez, do whatever you want!”
After everyone's persuasion, she finally accepted the situation, even though she was upset. Our Rinka is a can-do girl. I think.
What do you think about this chapter?
