 The second day of the boat trip.
 I find myself having a nightmare, and I jump out of bed.
 I don't remember the content of the dream, but the night sweat clinging to my body proves it wasn't a bad dream. But the night sweat clinging to my body proves that it wasn't a bad dream.
 I was chasing something, like I was being chased by something.
 Like I was talking to someone, and someone was accusing me of something. I feel like it was that kind of dream.

 I shake my head wide and shake off the unnecessary thoughts.
 It's only a dream. It has nothing to do with reality.

 I open the curtains of my room and let the morning sun wash over me.
 That's when I notice something unusual. The skill senses the danger and forces me to take the most appropriate action.
 I deploy Dimension to find the source of the danger.
 I find something I don't want to find and walk out of the room with a sigh.

 A few steps away, I see Snow, her face darkening, laughing.

'Heh, heh, heh, ......'

 The twitching laughter is painful.
 From the way he looks at me, I can see everything.

'Oh, uh, ......, did you hear that yesterday ......?'
'Yeah ....... I was just curious, and I used vibrating magic to talk to you: ......

 Apparently, he had been listening to my conversation with Rastiara.
 It seems that if you don't use your "Dimension" and keep your guard up, you won't be able to notice if Snow's magic is lurking in the vicinity, so I learned one thing.

'If you've been listening to the end, you'll understand. Don't get me wrong. That was just a blunder. ......

 As I squeeze out, I tell me and Snow.

'So, but at least Lady Rustyala is a step ahead of me ......?

 To be honest, it's not a step in the right direction, but I gently ogle and answer.

'...... not much different. We're the same people. Yesterday was just a bad situation, and I don't have any special feelings for Rustyala.

 If I could think of something special, I wouldn't be having such a hard time.
 I tell Snow my thoughts without pretense.

 Snow gives him a frustrated and sad look, then a slightly teased look.

'...... If Kanami likes Rastiara-sama, it won't change my feelings, will it? ...... I'm not giving up.

 With a slight pout, he replied like a child.
 It was a disproportionate gesture for the larger Snow.

 I'm bothered by the fact that Snow reacts in a more childish way than my younger members.
 But I can feel the growth in Snow's use of the phrase "I'm not going to give up". Finally, I feel like the time she had been stuck in is starting to move and she's starting to walk forward.

'Yes ......, thank you ......'

 With a double dose of gratitude, I popped my hand on Snow's head.
 Perhaps because of Snow's childishness, my body moved on its own.

 For a moment, Snow looks curious, and then her cheeks immediately break out in a smile. He doesn't quite understand what it means, but he seems simply happy to be being stroked.
 He thinks that un-twitching smile is cute - but at the same time, his guilt is accelerating.

 Yesterday's words from the Reaper, words like "coddling" and "not a good way to die" come to mind, and I quickly remove my hand.
 I bring up a different subject to get away from Snow's regretful face.

"...... Yeah. Well, Snow. You can't stop your vibrating magic from eavesdropping on me. Because I don't think it's a very good idea.
'What? Why?
The reason is that people don't always get asked: ...... Even me and the Reapers use dimensional magic at a minimum: ......
'Heh, heh ....... Well, I'll give it some positive consideration: ......?
Yeah, please. ......

 When I look away and see Snow smiling slyly, I'm sure of it.
 This guy will never stop .......

 I'm not going to be able to get away with it.
 Then Snow runs away in a panic.

"Well then, that's it!
Oh, wait! Now we have something to talk about on deck! If you can, call me when you find someone else!

 He calls out to Snow, who is moving away.

'Yeah, okay!'

 As he leaves, Snow replies back.
 He turns down the corridor and disappears.

 After watching it happen, I walk down the corridor to the deck.
 On the way there, I meet up with a sleeping Dia coming out of her room.

 Dia is a little surprised, but she rubs her eyes and greets me in a sunny way.

'Good morning, Kanami! It's a pleasant morning!
Good morning, Dear.

 It was an innocent smile, neither front nor back.
 There wasn't a single cloud on Dia's face after she went to bed regularly last night. Unlike me, who was covered in shadows due to lack of sleep, she seemed to be full of energy and vitality.

''A lot happened yesterday, so I'm incredibly hungry! Maria's guy said yesterday that he was going to make breakfast, so I'm kind of looking forward to it. I'll complain if it tastes even a little weird though! Haha!

 It's too bright and I close my eyes.

 There is not an ounce of malice or envy in the current Dia.
 She's the very same angelic Dear that she was when we first met.

'Oh, I'm sorry, Dia. There's something we all need to talk about before breakfast. I'm sorry, but would you mind gathering on deck?
Hmm? Okay, if Kanami says so, I will!

 Deer, who trusted me completely, nodded honestly without asking deeply.
 Then she cheerfully runs down the corridor to the deck. 

 Seeing her back, I almost feel tears flowing down my face.

 It was only a word or two of conversation - but it was uneventful.
 Instead of feeling sick to my stomach, it was as if my heart was cleansed.

 Why can't everyone do what Dia did? Including me, but everyone is too complicated.

 But that Dear also has the ferocity to return Mr. Rail's mansion to the clearing, if given the chance. ......
 Just for now, you can forget that fact and be moved by it.

 Then, after that, I called out to all my friends and I headed up to the deck as well.

 There were all six of my friends there. Maria, who works fast, had set up a large table in the center of the deck, so the six of us were sitting in a circle, close together.

 I sit down at an empty seat and start talking to them.
 I hope that we will never cross paths again.

'Well, there's something I want to talk to you about before breakfast. It's very important and I want everyone to hear it now: ......

 All of me--.


◆◆◆◆◆


 --I told them all.

 I didn't hide it, I revealed my abilities to all of them. 
 Of course, I told them in detail of my purpose and identity. I made it clear to them that I did not belong to this world.

''Oh, I see. ...... So Kanami was a 'gentile', in the street .......

 It was Dia who was most surprised.

'I knew, by the way. And your sister. Unlike Dear.'

 For some reason, Maria and Dia are sitting next to each other.
 Hearing Maria's statement, Dia's magic power swells. Maria's magic power swells in response. A frightening density of magic is intertwined between them and the space begins to visibly distort.

 I've grown accustomed to it, so I pretend I didn't see it and look at each person's reaction.
 Rastiara isn't really surprised at all.
 Snow isn't showing much interest.
 Reaper is as excited as a child.
 And--.

 --Sera-san, for some reason, was wearing a maid's uniform and glaring at me.

 I couldn't even look at her because her eyes were bleary like a Yankee in a comic book. As far as I could observe from the edge of my vision, he seemed unwilling to wear his current outfit.

 The reason why he was wearing it was predictable.
 Rastiara must have dressed him for fun. It seems that he had also stopped by a clothing store in between his busy hours yesterday. If you look closely, the ladies are dressed a little differently.

 I followed my intuition of the skill "sensitivity" and proceeded to talk to Sera without touching her.

 It's really, I've been helped by my "Inspiration" skill for a long time now.
 Thank you, Rowen: ....... And I'm sorry. You didn't tell me for this .......

'You all believe me so easily, but ....... Is another world so easy to accept?
'Eh ......, I suppose it could be if I used my magic: ......'

 Maria seems to think that as long as there is a convenient existence of magic, it's not impossible.
 It might seem so if she grew up in a world where magic was developed, rather than a world where science was developed.
 However, Rastiala was basing his opinion on something else.

''In my case, I see the word 'Gentile', so there's no doubt about it. Most of all, if you're familiar with Revanism, it could be because you have a thinly veiled knowledge of the existence of other worlds.
Is there a connection between Levantineism and other worlds?

 Dea and Rustyala, who are familiar with Revanism, answer.

'Yes, there is. There's a statement in the lore that alludes to the existence of other worlds: ......'
'Maybe Tiara, the founder of Revanism, had something to do with other worlds. Just like me and Kanami are now.

 I'd never heard of it before.
 It was information I hadn't been able to get in the Hoosiers' library. The two men are important figures in Revanism, which makes it highly credible.

'Oh, right: ......'

 Finally, I feel like I'm getting something close to a clue to another world. It's a faint hope that seems to be vanishing at any moment, but progress is being made.
 I ask two people familiar with Revan lore about the possibility of moving to another world.

'What do you two think it would take for me to return to my home world?'

 Rastiara replied lightly without much trouble.

''As for me, I think it's fine to keep the policy of aiming for the deepest part of the labyrinth. And there's no other way to go.

 Considering my own actual interests, I don't see any other option for this guy.
 Dia nodded as well. It seemed natural for the two of them to have a miraculous 'something' in the deepest part of the labyrinth.

 And then Maria comes up with an idea, even though it's an amateurish idea.

'The only other possibility would be to study Kanami-san's dimensional magic: ......

 I certainly see the potential for the power of my 'Dimensions' and 'Connections'.

 Currently, it might be best to believe in the lore, advance through the labyrinth, and train myself.
 Of course, I'll continue to gather information on other means in parallel. When I reach the continental mainland, I plan to visit the libraries and wise men of the great powers.

 Then a peculiar opinion is interrupted.

'Hey, Kanami. Can't we just continue to live in this world ......?

 Snow suggests with a half-hearted laugh.
 Everyone's eyes are focused on Snow. For a moment, we are consumed by silence. No one speaks up, but they were looking at me terribly favorably.

 But I'm the only one who shakes my head.

''No. I can't leave my sister Youtaki alone.''
'Uh, yeah, okay, ....... I'm just saying, so don't get mad at me ......?

 Drawing a half-hearted laugh, Snow asks me to look up.
 I smile, wondering why Snow has suddenly become frightened.

'No, I'm not angry at all,'
'No, Kanami-san. You have a great look on your face.

 Maria, who is sitting next to Snow, has a face as tightly drawn as Snow's.

''Really?''
I know firsthand, but once again, it's an awesome brother-sister relationship: ......
'Yeah, I think my siblings are the better for it. So I want to get back.
'No, I don't think that's the point: ....... No, I hope that's okay with you, Kanami, but ......

 Apparently, my love for my family is a rarity. Maybe Maria's family has become too close in the past.

 And when we've finished talking about the other world, we move on to the next topic.
 The 'gaze' ability to check your status.

Also, about Kanami's ability: ....... Kanami's 'eyes' are higher than my 'pseudo-god's eyes'. ......
Yeah, I was better than you. I thought it was the other way around.

 When I compared the abilities with Rath Tiara, the range I could grasp was drastically different.
 In my case, the status numbers are displayed to 0.00 and two decimal places. However, Rath Tiara's doesn't even show the decimal point. Furthermore, equipment and items are also unrecognizable. It seems that information on creatures such as monsters can be seen to a certain extent, but information on inorganic objects cannot be obtained.

''Analytical magic 'gazing' is great, but the 'possessions' of different space magic is even worse: ......
I knew it was magic: ......?
Maybe it's an application of dimensional magic and ancient magic. It's not impossible. ......

 I'm a little relieved by the story of Rastiala.
 Initially, I was terrified that they were playing with my brain and retinas. Now that I've seen a lot of unreasonable magic, the word "magic" alone is enough to convince me.
 That's a frightening thing in reverse, though.

''But this--''

 But for some reason, Rustyala's face is pale as he continues to talk. If you look closely, the same goes for Dia next to me.
 From the point of view of those involved in the Levantine Church, she has a thought.

''What's wrong. Is there something on your mind ......?
'...... Oi, no, it's not. It's a special kind of magic, I'm sure, but that's all. It's more the unique skills that concern me. A skill I don't understand, 'What? 'Hatena Hatena Hatena'? and the skill 'gentile'.

 I notice that he has blatantly changed his story.
 But I don't sense any malice there. It seems to be out of consideration for me. Since my skills aren't reacting either, I decide that it's not a big deal and don't say anything.

 Rastiara continues to explain.

'In case you're wondering, in Revan lore, the 'gentile' beings are said to be visitors who have strayed from 'reason' ....... As I recall, it said that it was easy to come to 'reason' or something like that.
"Out of 'reason' and leading to ......? Does that mean it's easier to be strong?
'That's all you need to know: ....... The lore is vague, so I don't know if I'll ever get the details: ......
Hm. ......

 It's too abstract to make much progress.
 If we had a complete set of Levantine literature, it would be a different story, but as it stands, we don't seem to know anything about it. But since the present human god of Revanism says this, I don't expect much more.

''So, the biggest problem is the actual harm skill '? 'Hatena Hatena Hatena'.
'Oh, skill 'what? (Hatena Hatena Hatena)' This one is the trickiest.
...... Hey, it's kind of uncool, so why don't you change the wording of that skill? It's hard to say!
'Yeah, oh. I don't mind. ......

 Rustyala roars as he finally can't take it anymore.
 To be honest, I was thinking the same thing. And it seemed to be so much a matter of policy for her.

'Hmmm, mmmm. ...... Unknown? No, it's a bit of a malevolent skill: ......, malice (ill-will)? Skill '? Shall we go with 'Il Will'?

 Rastiara declares, waving his hands around and looking confident.

 Snow applauds without pause - an embarrassed Rustyala. But everyone else has a bitter look on their faces.
 Rastiara's proposed Illwill. I feel like this is also a pretty hard category to say.

 That sense of trying to choose something that looks a little cool doesn't seem to be acceptable to Dia and Maria and the others. Even Sera, who is friendly to Rastiara, can't say she has a big smile on her face.
 Apparently, Rastiara and I are the only ones who care more about the sense of the word than the functional ease of calling it.

'No, it's not just malice, though sometimes it's saving me: ......

 When Snow sees that I disagree with him, he starts to dawdle. That's what happens when you don't have an opinion of your own and you flirt.

'No, you're being malicious. This is what's reducing Kanami's emotional ceiling, right? You've had your feelings for someone else erased, haven't you? That's absolutely unacceptable. It's definitely a bad skill.

 Rastiala was seriously angry.
 By the way, he blurted out the story only about the skill '??' I only blurted out the story about the ? I just explained that I've had my feelings erased a bit, as if it wasn't a big deal.
 I didn't say who I felt for. I know that if I said it, it would complicate the conversation yesterday.

 It's a hard decision to make, but it's a painful one. I've sworn to trust my friends, but I haven't been able to fully implement it.

 But still, Lastiara considers the intangible skills to be the enemy.
 Everyone else seems to agree with him. They don't say it, but from their expressions, they seem to feel quite angry.

''...... Right. Okay, I'll do that.

 I nodded. Originally, I hadn't been much of an opponent.
 However, Snow was breathing generously, happy and worried about my reaction.

 Leaving Snow alone, I ask Rustyala.
 That's the main question for today.

It's a good thing that you're not the only one. ?" (Ilwil) with Rastiara's magic. I'd like to erase it if I could.
'No, I don't think I've ever heard of turning off a skill in a quicksilver: ......
'Can't we do something about that? I'm willing to push myself a bit. I can put up with a little bit of a price.
'You're pretty desperate ....... You said you've been saved once or something. ......

 I haven't talked about my own skill '??' Rustyala wonders, since I haven't talked about my anger at ?

'Then ......, seal. How about sealing it? The one in Palinkron was able to seal it, okay?
'I wonder if we can even seal it. Perhaps what Palinclone did was not magic, but the application of 'spellcraft'. And since it would be with the help of the 'Dark Reason Stealer' Tida, no amount of us can imitate it. ......
'...... I see. If it's ......, we'll just have to make sure it's not triggered as much as possible.

 I don't seem to be so good at it.
 I chewed my teeth and said, "Skill '??' I give up on elimination for now.

In the meantime, if the disruption exceeds 8.00, Kanami's uncombatable.
What ......?

 Suddenly, Rustyala decides to limit it.
 I'm surprised, but everyone else is listening as if it's natural.

"Of course it's natural, you'll go crazy when it reaches 10.00. The truth is, you don't even want to go out unless it's 0.00, right?
'No, it's okay, I'll be careful not to trigger it if it looks like it's going to be 10.00.'
So what would you think if Kanami were in the opposite position?

 Rastiara was trying to break the argument. I realize the disadvantage of the situation and give up early.

'Yes, ....... I'd probably say the same thing. Okay, I'll defer to Rastiara's decision.
Yeah. Good for you to be honest.
'That's the end of my story. Next time, I'd like to hear more about everyone's abilities. I will use it as a reference for my future labyrinth exploration. There's a lot of things we don't understand from just 'gazing'.

 While I can see the status, I can't see the details. The most annoying thing is that I can't see the magic I'm learning, especially the magic I'm learning.
 I want to know who can use what magic at the moment. Especially Maria's magic.

''Yes, Stopp!
'Yes, please. Mr. Rastiara.

 I forgive the assertive Rustyala for his comments.
 It would be too loud if I left it alone, so I had no choice.

''Can't we change that 'gazing' thing too? Well, since we're here, let's give it a name.
Again: "......
Because it's so confusing! To begin with, my adventures will be sold in a book later on, so I need to make it easier to understand!
You can put whatever you want on .......

 I forgive Rastiara because I have no problem with his naming sense.

'Yay. It's kind of fun to be the godfather of something!

 The skill "? I guess I got a taste for it with the "? However, I agree with that idea.
 I happily begin discussing it with Dear and Snow next to me.
 Thus, the discussion is prolonged in vain.

If you're going to make a decision, get on with it: ......
'Kanami. I'm not interested in this sort of thing, so I'd like to prepare some breakfast for you: ......
Let's do it. I'll help you with that.

 Afterwards, Maria and I couldn't bear to discuss the name that was not being decided on, so Maria and I left to make breakfast.

 However, in the end, we hadn't decided on a name even after we had finished breakfast, so the name was decided on my own accord.

 The names were "Analyze" and "Dee Pouch".
 It was a game-like idea for a name, but Rastiara loved it. I don't see Snow's reaction anymore.

 Then, once breakfast was laid out on the table, we moved on to the party division of the labyrinth exploration.
