After the defeat of the Sentinels Dreadnought, we were led by Snow to a fort near the port city of Cork. Then, as we fled to what we thought was her own room, Snow glanced at Titi.

　She's a little disgruntled.
　Apparently, she considers Titi next to me to be a distraction.
　I quickly explain that Titi is an important person.

"......, this is Titi, the Guardian of the Fifty Layers.
Hmm. I'm Titi. It's a pleasure to meet you. As you heard, the monsters of the maze have no respect for one another.

　Titi stepped forward in a friendly manner and introduced herself.

'Hi. I'm Snow. Nice to meet you. ...... I remember we've done this exchange before.

　Fearfully, Snow bows her head. Then, with his eyebrows raised, I said what I had been thinking too.
　A year ago, the meeting between the Guardian of the Thirty Layers (Guardian) Rowen and Snow - I remember having the same conversation then as I do now.

'Yeah, right. This guy wasn't a bad guy either, so I brought him out of the labyrinth.

　So I had no choice but to return the same words as I did then.

　However, Snow's words that I was waiting for next were slightly different.
　Instead of blaming me for my indiscretion, rather the opposite - she sounded relieved.

'So you're with Rowen, too?'

　Those words would be the true proof of the difference between Snow then and Snow now.
　Unlike before, this time Snow bowed and shook hands with the guardian.

You are right. You may not be the same as him, but you want the same end. If you can, I hope you'll help me too.

　To which Titi responds with a smile.
　And after that handshake, Snow asks me the most important thing.

'The Guardian of the Fifty Layers means that Kanami has been in the labyrinth for the past year?'
Yeah, I know. Snow, listen to me. What has happened to me since then, what I'm going to do now--

　Soon I will tell you what I have been up to today, albeit roughly.
　First, that I fell into the labyrinth a year ago after the battle with Palinkron. There, he met his guardians (guardians), Titi and Nosfi, and escaped with Ryner. And that he heard on the ground that Rastiara hadn't moved from the Hoosiers and came to see Snow first. The main points were withheld because it would be a long story, but I explained the sequence of events.

　In response, Snow also tells me about the year in general.
　After he left me, he tried to get everyone together instead of me. Challenging the Aide and the Apostle Sith, and losing a lot of fights. And for desperately trying to hold Maria and Rustyala together after they fought, and continuing to stand between a party that was split in two. Basically, it seems that he was assisting Maria's journey and fulfilling the country's request in order to raise Rustyala's position.

''--I did my best too. After that, everyone started fighting ...... and as Kanami told me, I had to do my best ....... That's why I worked so hard until today. I believed that Kanami would come back .......

　Snow smiled, her eyes moistening slightly.
　Her figure was fragile - and beautiful. For an absent-minded moment, I was mesmerized by her.

　If he observed closely, there were many differences from a year ago.
　Before, the only features of a dragon person would have been his tail and horns, but a change had appeared on his right arm. Although it's well hidden with clothes, but I, who can use the 《Dimension》, can see it clearly. Due to the hardening of the skin, the area around her right shoulder is no longer human. It's probably an after-effect of using her trump card, 'Dragonization'.
　If this was the case in one year, it was easy to imagine what would have happened if she had been left alone for a few years. If it was ten years before she returned, then Snow would be completely--

'Yeah, good job ....... Really .......

　I ruffled a hand through Snow's hair, which looked even more damaged than it did a year ago.
　Her beautiful cherry-red eyes showed a dark tiredness, and her cheeks were slightly sunken.
　Still, I thought she was beautiful.
　Without a doubt, more than any other Snow I've ever known--

Ehehe. ......

　The grown-up Snow smiled shyly.
　And I smiled back.
　There are few words and no magical 'connection', but I thought that we certainly have a heart to heart.

　And Titi, who was watching behind us, smiles even better than we do.

'Hmmm, it's a bit of a touching scene!　Snow seems to have been overworking himself until today, so from now on, you should indulge yourself in Kanamin. There's no such thing as impossibility or vanity. As you said before, the best thing to do is to stop being a hero. That's because you're no good at all!

　Apparently, Titi was able to guess Snow's hard work as well.
　She generously shares the lessons she has learned over the past thousand years with Snow. Sensing this heartfelt blessing, Snow happily thanks him.

'Thank you ....... Titi is a guardian, but unlike Rowen and Tida, she's kind. I'm not afraid of her at all.
"Mmm, of course. Don't mix it up with those three crazy knights.　The child is a kind and gentle sister, you know!
It's so warm, isn't it, Titty? I like people like that.
The boy loves Snow, too. I don't know why I'm so attached to him. I wouldn't say she's my daughter, but she's like a little sister like a boy.
'My sister ......?　Sister ......?
'Hahaha!　You can call it what you want!　You can spoil your children as much as you want, not only Kanamin, but also your children!
'Yes!　Titty is the perfect big sister!　What a perfect big sister!　I'm going to be Titi's sister from today!

　The chemistry was good, and they became friends at a tremendous rate.
　But, Snow ....... That statement is going to make Ms. Glenn cry. And he's crying pretty hard.

　Unaware of my concern, Snow dove into Titi's chest. And Titi pats her head.

'Mm-hmm!　This kind of sister is okay too!
'Ehehe, it was worth the effort!　I got a big sister to spoil me and my hubby came home too!　Oh, I'm so glad!

　There was a little bit of anxiety about having Snow meet Titi, the guardian (guardian). However, that worry seems to be unfounded. It was as if the two of them were playing together like two very close sisters.

　Once they were relieved, they went to solve another problem. I couldn't talk to you earlier, but now that we've settled down, we can talk about it in detail.

I apologize for the fun part, Snow. Can you refrain from that 'master' guy, if you can: ......?　I told you that before, didn't I?

　The word slowed the close sisters down a bit.
　It was Titi who responded first.

'That was on the mind of the child, too. Let's see, that means Snow is Kanamin's wife from this era. Or do you mean she's a concubine?

　And that was the worst answer I feared.

'Hey, it's bad enough that people get it wrong like this!

　It's very hard to leave this room when I think that Chloe might have thought the same thing about Titty as she did about me earlier.

''Hmm, I don't mind, okay?　I gave up before because of Lastiara-sama, Dia-sama, and then Maria, but now I'm fine with it and ....... Ah. Is it possible that Titi's sister is also thinking about Kanami--

　Snow doesn't seem to be interested in the impressions of Chloe and her colleagues at the fort. He's more interested in the relationship between Titi and me. To which Titi quickly replies, so that there is no misunderstanding.

What, you're a child?　Hmmm... I don't think so. Can't you see Kanami as a big sister, or can't you see her as a love interest?　Maybe it's because I'm younger than you?

　For some reason, I don't know why I'm getting turned down by Titi from above.
　I mean, the entire human race is younger than you.

I'm not sure if it's because I haven't thought about it too much. I don't know if it's because I haven't thought about it too much. I'm not sure if it's because I've never thought of it as a political marriage.
Political Marriage: ......
The boy used to be a king. That's the way I thought he was going to be married. But don't let it bother you. After all, he didn't marry until the end of his life.
As a king, be prepared: ......
And anyway, it's Snow!　To a child, what is a Kanamean--!

　Titi quickly sensed Snow's face clouding over at the mention of a political marriage and forced the conversation back.

"First an enemy, a companion, an accomplice, a benefactor, and now a brother ...... Kanamiin is the second brother of the child!　My youngest brother is Reiner!

　I'm sure he's not obsessed with that anymore, but still, Titi wants to pretend that I'm his brother. Hearing that, Snow is relieved and asks back with a bit of a joke.

''Oh, you're my brother, King!　Does that mean there is no heteros*xual romantic thing going on!
Yes. He's more of a brother.
'Then you wouldn't mind if Kanami was my husband!
'Mmmmmm. It's still good for the child, but ...... there are a lot of problems, aren't there?　First of all, even though we've parted company, Kanamin still has Nosfies.
Who is Nosfy ......?
Hmm, don't you know?　She was married to a thousand-year-old Kanamin.
What's up, sweetheart?

　I had been watching, hoping that Titi would do a good job of calming Snow down, but I had to put a stop to this.

'Titi!　We don't have to be more timely about those things!

　The part I had been blurring well was exposed and I was impatient.
　It was the same for Snow.

'What?'

　She wavers away from the titty, baffled by the word "millennial wife" and moves closer to me. For some reason, she raises her hands up to her shoulders and turns both of her palms to my neck - and then.

Why did you put your hand around my neck?

　He takes a step back and manages to dodge it.
　But when Snow is dodged, she begins to tremble in tears. This time it's not with joy, but with an emotion of sorrow.

'Because, because ....... Somewhere in the past year, Kanami has made ...... a wife.　We've been worried about you every single time ...... and you're terrible .......
'No!　I didn't make you a wife!　Nosfi is different!　I don't even remember marrying her!　No country recognizes that anymore!　It's invalid because we both decided to pretend it didn't happen!　And he's a guardian to begin with!　We just killed each other a few days ago!

　I was a desperate excuse for Snow's misunderstanding, and for myself.

'Hmmm, that's a terrible excuse ....... I'm sure there's another excuse .......

　Titi will complain, but this one is a matter of life and death. I just want you to be quiet.
　Look at Snow's face right now.
　I bet it's been a month of eavesdropping on me.
　Well, I'm fine with that, because it doesn't bother me anymore. I'll tell you what's important, though, is a wiretap.
　Why did I bring up Nosfies at this point?

　And maybe it's because of my desperate excuses, but little by little the sanity (highlights) is coming back from Snow's eyes.

'You're a guardian (guardian) ......?　Na, then, is it okay ......?

　Apparently, it was significant that Nosfi was a being that would disappear one day.

'Yeah, he showed up as a guardian of the sixty layers. And unlike Titi, he became my enemy. Titi still considers Nosfi a friend, but I can't. He's too ...... malicious towards me.

　He vents his heartfelt feelings about Nosfi.
　Even now, I can clearly remember. The malicious sneer he gave me.
　I will never be in love with that man.

　Hearing my assessment of that nosphy, Snow regained his complete composure.

''...... Is that Nosfi guy an enemy of Kanami's and a friend of your sister's?''
'No, it's just that the child unilaterally considers Nosfi to be his friend. Nosfi has made it clear to me that they are no longer friends. ...... Well, that's all right. I'm sure that someday you'll be able to rescue Nosfie like you did as a child, I'm sure. I'm not too worried about Nosfi.

　Titi seems to really believe that I will save Nosefy. It's true that I'm definitely more qualified for the job than Titi, who I hear has been an enemy all along, but I honestly don't have the confidence to live up to that expectation.

　Seeing Titty's story and my expression, Snow returns to his usual expression.

''Yeah. I've got a pretty good idea about that Nosfi guy. ...... hey, sis. Would you be more supportive of me than that friend of yours, the Nosfi guy ......?　Do me a favor. I want to be Kanamin's wife. Ehehe. ......

　Then, for some reason, he looks up from below, as if flattered, and starts piling on the requests.

'Mmmm. Mmmm, even though I say support, there's still a problem ....... Just a few days ago, Kanamin's guy confessed his feelings to a beautiful woman named Rustyala. Therefore, I don't think it's so easy for you and Naminami to be in love: ......
'What ......?　Koku, haku ......?

　But that request is interrupted by more bombs from Titi.

'Titi!　Really, please, just take it easy on me!

　I'm not kidding, but it's time to get some real casualties. I see Snow's eyes sink another notch darker, and this time I'm in tears. But still, Titi didn't back down.

A boy doesn't hide things from people he considers his friends.
I think so too!　But you know when to cut it out and stuff!
If you start talking about timing, you won't be able to say anything about it forever, will you?　Of course, I'll tell you how it ends, as it should. --You may rest assured, Snow. The boy was soundly rejected before your eyes.

　Then I tell Snow that I've been balled up.

...... dumped you?　...... Why?

　Snow looked at me in deepest wonder.
　Apparently, she couldn't believe the outcome.
　I'm not going to be able to get a good idea of what to do with it.

I don't understand ...... that part either. When I returned to earth, I confessed to him right away and he rejected me coldly ......
............

　I'm like Titi, I don't hide anything. So I don't try to hide anything.

　Snow is silent when she hears that.
　He looked at my face to make sure I wasn't lying, then pondered it over and over, and finally let out a very calm voice.

'...... If you've been wiped out, fine. And I knew I was one step ahead of you originally, Lady Rustyala.

　Then he calmly takes stock of his position and turns back the brightness of his eyes. No, instead of returning, she turns her eyes to me with a powerful light that I've never seen before.

''Even if Kanami likes Rastiara-sama, my feelings won't change. Because I definitely don't want to give up until the end. That's why I'll do my best. I'll do my best to make Kanami like me, in my own way.

　Then he went on to say something that Snow would not have said. The way he reminded me of being the commander-in-chief of that army took my breath away, as did Titi's.

　For me, the tears are about to fall. She has grown so much better than when we were sailing together, when she escaped from even washing and cooking. Her growth has left me speechless and my eyes are burning.
　Titi is also impressed by her appearance and praises her.

''Oh ....... You look good - .......
So, sis ....... I hope you'll be on my side and support me in many ways?

　But Snow was flowing and indulging Titi. I felt my eyes rapidly cooling.

'Yes, that's the spirit of equality ....... You can't just put your shoulder to someone else or anything like that--
'Please, sister. A lifetime request from Snow: ......!
Oh, with your sister?　Sounds a bit nostalgic: ......!

　It's not just the strength of mind that Snow has grown into.
　I finally realize that he's also improving his pampering skills.

　Snow uses his keen eyes to read Titty's facial expressions and makes the most appropriate requests. As a result, Titi's weaknesses have been successfully exploited and she looks like an old lady with her grandson in front of her.

I'm not sure what to do. I don't have a choice.
'Really?　Thank you!
'Mmm!　Let's start rooting for Snow today!　The marriage of Kanamin and Snow, this boy will help you!
'Oh, sister, you're so generous!　Large vessel!　You really do look like a king!　Yeah, my king!　King, hooray, hooray!

　Snow went on to agitate Titi, but there was a bit of a problem with his words.

'Long live the king ......?　Ugh ......!

　Titi is provoked by the trauma and holds her head in her hands. Snow, unsure of the cause of the trauma, says, "King, you're okay! He shakes his shoulder.

　Seeing that, I know that Snow is growing fast, but the parts that don't change don't change.
　It's strange and nostalgic to see Snow like this, who seems to be doing well but is actually going in the wrong direction.

'Snow, please stop calling Titi the king. I'm traumatized by being called that.
Yeah, I'm sorry!

　Immediately Snow apologized, and Titi smiled, greasy sweat dripping down her forehead.

No, he'll be fine. You're in good company, little sister!　Let's get you back in the mood and talk about a lot more stuff!
Yeah. I'd like to talk to Titi too. But the thing I'm most interested in right now is that 'thousand years ago' story I mentioned earlier. I'd love to hear more about it.

　With a sharp look, Snow urged me to speak.

'You're talking about a thousand years ago: ....... It's a long story, and this story is honestly--'

　The battle of a thousand years ago is a matter for me and the 'stealers of reason'. I'm a little unsure if it's okay to involve someone who has no ties to the past. But that hesitation is cut off by Titi.

'It is true that it is uncomfortable to involve modern humans in a feud from a thousand years ago. However, I think it would be best for you to tell your comrades who will be fighting against the Apostle Sith.
You do. Snow, listen to me. I need you to save my siblings and me--

　To the best of my knowledge, I started talking about a thousand years ago - and asking for help.

　The memories I remember are of the days I spent with Apostle Sith, Saint Tiara, and my sister Yotaki. After that, Yotaki became a monster due to a mistake made by Apostle Sis, and the story of how Saint Tiara saved me from continuing to fight in desperation. It was told slowly and carefully, with Titi supplementing it.

　The story is so ridiculous that anyone living today would probably laugh at it. After all, he denies the legends of the continent, and on top of that, he claims that he is the founder of the main characters. If you talk to a believer in the Levantine religion, you could be stabbed with a knife in a fit of rage.

　Snow, however, accepted it easily.
　The legend of a thousand years ago is like a fairy tale to Snow. It seems that whether I was there a thousand years ago or not, it doesn't really matter. When I told him that I was summoned from the world a thousand years ago, he replied, "Hmmm, is that so? It could be Kanami." That's all she said. It seems that the only thing that matters to her is me in front of her now.

　Perhaps the same reaction might be true around Maria.
　Only Dia and Rustyala have a connection to a thousand years ago. I'm sure you'll be able to find a way to make the most of it.

　--The story of that thousand years ago will continue into the night.

　I'm not so sure I've told you Titi's story in the meantime. Snow's reaction to my story was indifferent, but she was quite involved in Titty's story.
　The two of them continued to comfort and play with each other endlessly throughout the evening, even after dinner.

　Thus, the night went on as the party was united.

　The first day on the mainland passes.

　With the return of a companion named Snow, the anxiety in the party was gone.
　Happy that the trip is going well, I fall asleep in the corner of Snow's room with Snow and Titi's voice as a lullaby.


◆◆◆◆◆ ...


　--the next morning.
　He wakes Snow and Titi, who have been sleeping in one bed, and tells them he's leaving the cork soon. It's not a rushed trip, but that doesn't mean they should waste any time.
　He gets them both sleepy from being up late and gets them ready to leave right away.

　However, before I left Snow's room, I sensed that the 《Dimension》 had someone hanging around outside the door. While greeting that person, I exit Snow's room.

''Err, good morning.''

　Outside the room was Chloe, her brow wrinkled. From the way she looked, I could tell she had been waiting here for a long time.
　After glaring at me for a moment, Chloe-san comes over to me and starts to blend in.

"--What do you mean, 'Good morning'?　You ended up staying in Lady Snow's room!　Shady!　What in the world were you doing in Master Snow's room!　I heard voices late into the night!
...... I swear to God I didn't do anything. I was just telling an old story.
'If you just want to talk about the old days, you can do it elsewhere!　Why did you pay people off!

　I insist that I'm not guilty, but Chloe doesn't trust me at all.
　I realize early on that it's useless to make excuses for something I don't want to hear here, so I'm at a loss for an answer. Then Snow, who can't bear to see that, intervenes.

'Please, Chloe ....... Don't blame Kanami. It's all I asked for ....... Ehehe.

　Snow responded with a make-believe smile in an attempt to get him to calm down, but of course it added fuel to the fire.

''Isn't this the same as yesterday's Kounel-sama!　Heroic Kanami--this, you pervert!

　At last, I'm going to be called out for cursing.
　Indeed, from her point of view, it looks like a lot of women are changing rapidly because of me. It's also quite unnatural.

'I'm sorry. I didn't mean to do that. ......'
'You don't owe me an apology!　But more importantly, please get out of this cork right now!　You'll ruin Master Snow's life if you're around!
...... I will be gone again today. However, we will take Snow, who resigned as acting commander-in-chief, as it was written on yesterday's introductory paper, with us.
No, you can't do that!　Lady Snow is our Lady Snow!　You can't do that!　I don't believe it!　What an indefinite leave of absence!　Isn't that crazy?　Such a resignation!

　Chloe had the example resignation letter in her hand. Then she clutched it, revealing her anger.

'But it's real. I don't mind having it checked.
'It was probably obtained by seducing the Hoozeyer's princess, anyway!　That's why I say it's disreputable!

　When I insisted that it was real, the accusations of character now flew in.
　No matter how calmly I spoke to him, he didn't seem to be convinced at all. I'm troubled by the thought that talking seriously like this will only delay my departure.

　I'm not sure if Titi senses this is a problem or not, but she takes my arm in hers and tries to push me forward.

It's a hassle. Kanamin, all you have to do is stick your hand in his chest and you'll get one shot.　Here, do it.
You mean Distance Mute?　You can't do this without consent, you idiot. Also, don't talk weird. You'll get it wrong: ......!

　He urges me to use magic to connect my mind, but with the events at Hoozeyer's Cathedral fresh in my mind, I refuse to do so.

'Do you plan to touch my breasts if I have your consent ......!　I knew it!

　Chloe covered her own breasts with her arms and stepped back.

'I knew it: ......'

　My image of myself in Chloe's mind is already in tatters.
　I may never get it back.

'No matter what you do to me, I will not recognize you!　Even as the second-in-command in charge of the city of Cork, I would never back down!　Once Master Snow is gone, it is certain that the 'Northern League' will use that as an opportunity to attack us!　Currently, most of the naval battles in The Boundary War are like the ones that Master Snow has in his power!　Lord Snow is exactly what we need here!　If I'm gone now, every balance will be thrown off!　For the sake of the country, but also for the sake of the world!　I will never let you through!

　Immediately, Chloe stepped forward and stood in front of me, taking a step back.
　There was a glimpse of pride as one of the military members defending our country.

　The first to react to that pride was Titi. I could tell by the look on her face that she was thinking about her words.

'I was weak when you told me that much ....... I said I didn't want to mess with it in this day and age, but it's no use. It's a good idea to make sure that you have a good time. Let me show you what Snow is doing now.
You're looking for Master Snow's work?　Even a wizard as good as you can't solve this problem. Master Snow's job is to protect this place and unite the people in case the 'North' attacks.
I see. I've got a pretty good idea. Then let's let the child go to the battlefield for a bit and disable this 'Northern League' thing. Then there will be no problem.
What?

　The outrageousness of the story surprised Chloe and left her speechless.

　Titty was about to go on a tour de force. From the way she looked at him, it was clear that she was going to take Snow out no matter what. Maybe she doesn't like the state of this fort's dependence on Snow.　

''Titi!''

　I stop myself from yelling. Because I know from Titi's time as king, I know she'll do what she says she's going to do.

"Don't worry about it, Kanamin. I'm just going to go and cripple the Commander-in-Chief over there for a bit. The point is that both generals should be eliminated on an equal footing. The war will automatically stop functioning for a little while. Isn't that simple enough?

　Titi speaks in great seriousness.
　Chloe can tell that he's serious about proposing that joke, and her voice shakes.

'That's such a stupid thing to do ....... No, even if you could do it, it would still be ......
Then if we disrupt their front line, will you be satisfied then?
That's not the point!　I just don't like the idea of Lady Snow leaving for the man's own reasons!　Master Snow's power cannot be used for the convenience of just one person!
"You really like Snow's power: ....... But if you don't agree with this, then the child will have no choice but to annihilate all of them and take Snow with him. ......
'There and there': ......!　Such a thing: ......

　Titi calmly gives a solution. But all of them are so outlandish that Chloe's thoughts are not able to keep up with them.
　At last Chloe lost her voice and nearly folded her knees, and Titty scratched her head.

' ...... Mmm. ...... I was teasing you too much. I'm sorry, I think I got a little carried away.

　He may have wanted to tell her in a distant way not to rely on the mighty power of an individual because it's not a good thing, but Chloe's heart broke before she could come to that conclusion.
　Just being under the pressure of a guardian (guardian) would have made an ordinary person faint. Rather, it's the one who held on so well.

　Titty makes an apologetic face and tells the rest of the story.

'Oh, it's Chloe. You really needn't worry. After all, in a few days, the North will fall apart. The leader of the Northern Alliance, the 'Lord who rules', will be gone. And the manipulation of the id in the background will also disappear. By the hands of the children.

　And I had no choice but to reveal the purpose of our journey.

'The 'King of Governing' (Lord) of the 'Northern League' disappears ......?　S-, what does that mean ......?
The head of the Confederation, Rustyala Fuzzyaz, has instructed me to take Snow along with me on this assassination mission. The head of the Confederation, Rustyala Hoozeyars, the current god of humanity, has instructed that Snow should accompany the assassination plan. It's a strengthening of the war effort by adding "hero" to "hero". I don't think it's right for a member of the military to disagree with that decision, do you?
'That's not what I'm talking about ......, I haven't heard that ......'

　Titty tries to round it off with a suitable made-up story.
　Chloe's voice, which was getting a little weaker and weaker, was followed next by Snow.

'I'm sorry, Chloe. I'm going to go.
Mr. Snow: "Mr. Snow: ......
Yesterday I said some crazy shit, but I'm calm and collected.

　He held Chloe's sinking shoulders and tried to convince her to get on with the story Titi had just made up.

'I believe that going north with Kanami here is a winning path for the 'Confederacy'. Of course, I have a desire to stay with Kanami myself.

　Admonished by the esteemed Snow, Chloe bites her lip and comes to terms with reality.
　But not yet. Chloe is still grabbing the hem of Snow's clothes, trying to hold her back.
　Words are thrown from Snow to break it off.

'I know Chloe has high hopes for me. But I'm sorry. I can't live up to that. ...... I want to be with Kanami, just like Chloe wants to be with me ....... So let me go.
...... Yes, it's like .......

　Chloe couldn't deny those words.
　She turns her face down and slowly releases the hem and moves away from us.

　Titi and I watch it. --We see that 'one ideal'.

　And then Chloe stares at me again, just as she did at the beginning. But the next words are much different.

'Kanami-sama!　If you make Lady Snow cry, I will never forgive you!　Just remember that!
"...... um, yeah. Okay. I'll make sure I remember that.

　I promise you, Chloe.
　That means another member of the Snow fan club. I quickly made a cheap promise on the spur of the moment, thinking it would be the same as before.

　When Chloe sees that I've agreed, she lets out a deep sigh for once and goes to check our travel arrangements.

'...... There's no way around it. I'll get your carriages ready for you all now. The carriage is fine, right?

　For a while, I wondered what would happen, but thanks to Titi and Snow, it seems that my persuasion was successful. Having her from the 'Southern League' on our side, the journey ahead will definitely be easier.

''Thank you. I was just wondering what we should do about the overland route from here.''
We'll make all the arrangements for you so you don't have to deal with any problems along the way. I'll also give you the map we use here. As I recall, you're planning to head from 'Cork' to 'Daryl', right?
Yes, I'm thinking of going into the 'viasia' north of there.
'Then it's best to follow the mountain range to the north. As for directions--

　Chloe is a capable one, as long as she can shake off the snow.
　It all went very quickly, and within an hour, our carriage was ready outside the fort for us to use.

　Inside the carriage was everything we could possibly need for our journey. If you look closely, you can see that my personal belongings from the "Living Legend" are also inside.
　Then, before leaving, Snow and Chloe said their goodbyes.

　At the end of it all, I started the carriage out, a little curious about what Titi would tell Aide .......
