Sayah, can I talk to you for a second?
What's up, Nia?

　After the "Sword Fiend Gurren Emergency Response Meeting" was over and everyone went back to preparing dinner, supervising and drawing.
　Finally, as I was about to leave too, I was stopped by Naiya.

'By story, I mean Glenn,'

　From the way he speaks, it can be inferred that he has something he wants to tell me about the "Sword Magician" Glenn that we were talking about earlier.

　It's probably a story that's 'still very thin on the ground', or it's a story they don't want anyone to hear.

Maybe it's my imagination. I thought I saw Timothy when Glenn was leaving.

Oh, did Nia think that?
So that means Seya felt it too, didn't it?

　What can I say about that one?

　When Glenn retreated because he didn't like the onlookers.

'As if to price Timothy out, or even to confirm it?　Well, I thought I saw that look for a second, and then I did too.

Hmm..... Then it might not be a misunderstanding on Atay's part.
From the way you say it, Niall has a guess as to Glenn's purpose?

'I'm not so sure I can guess, and I'm not so sure it's irrelevant. But it's possible that the timing could be for Timothy.

　Lowering his tone to hide his voice, Niall tells her with a serious look on his face.

　I mean, oh.
　So this was a story you didn't want Timothy to hear?

　It's a pity that I'm still in a stage of uncertainty, but I don't want to make you more anxious than necessary that you might be targeted, right?

And what are the chances of that?

Timothy, you know, is the future papal candidate of the Church of Mary-Celesian, which has 80 percent of the Empire's subjects and congregations across the continent.

''Well when I hear it again like that, it's really amazing.

　When you're the head of the Church of Maria-Selecia, which has congregations not only in the Empire, but all over the continent, you're no longer more than an emperor.......?

''It's really great, actually. And when the Demon King returns and the war between humans and demons begins, this is a no-brainer that the envious Pope will become a symbol of unity on the human side.

"--Really?　So you're riding in to make Timothy a dead man while you're at it!

　Oh, you've made a great connection!

　Signs of the Demon King's return → Raise a diversion → Glenn rides in → Assassinate Timothy

　It's like being a character in a mystery drama!

　Oh, yes!

"In the name of the God-Destroying High King!

　--I should have prepared a cool decisive line like that.
　d*mn, what a blunder to have overlooked such an important thing I did with me...!　

Of course we can't be sure of that yet, and we have no proof. But I just wanted you to keep that possibility in mind for Sayre--

....

　But this line is too cheap indeed.
　After all, I'm an overwhelming protagonist who was reincarnated in another world, and I'm an overwhelming protagonist with all the cheats fully equipped.

"--Seya?

....

　After all, this isn't a parody, but rather the perfect me, the perfect me, and I'd like to pursue the originality of my own unique line of decision-making, which is worthy of such a perfect me.

Seya?

"...what?　Oh, no, no, no, no, no. I heard that, right?　Yeah, I heard that!

　Not good.
　I guess I got a little too wrapped up in coming up with cool lines.
