Back in Ars, Jin was visiting No. 700672 with Reiko.

"Welcome, Jin-dono."

No. 700672 welcomed Jin as usual. Rouge and Neige are taking good care of No. 700672.

"It's been a while. You look well.

"Yes, thanks to Persica juice. That fruit is truly a miracle fruit.

Hearing these words, Jin remembered that Milowina had also gotten well thanks to Persica.

"I have a report to make today.

"Well, let's hear it."

The 700672 offered Jin a chair.

Jin told him that he had completed the spaceship < and that he had used it to investigate the moon ...... UNY.

As a result, he found that had visited UNY in the past.

He reported in detail what he had found out: that the people of the former Leonard Kingdom had evacuated for fear of disease, and that only one descendant remained.

"Hmmm, interesting story."

The 700672 listened to the whole story without interrupting.

"I have not told you this, Jin-dono, but there is a faction within my ."

The Masters of 700672, or the Originals, are from Hale, a planet opposite Ars on the other side of the sun Seran. They were from Hale, the planet opposite Ars on the other side of the sun Seran, and had the problems of a mature civilization, a declining vitality, and depleted resources.

In order to solve these problems, they built the <>, a starship capable of interplanetary travel, and came to Ars.

"There were factions, or groups with different principles. There were those who wanted to continue to live in Hale and slowly meet their demise, and those who wanted to seek a new land and make a new home.

Jin has no doubt about that.

"Of course, the only people who came to Ars were who wanted to seek a new land. But there were factions among them.

According to 700672, it is not so much a faction as a specific sub-group.

It seems that many of the originals were individualists who did not like to group together.

"Naturally, there was not just one ship, but many.

Each ship had a different number of passengers, ranging from 10 to 1,000.

"I didn't realize that the moon used to be an asteroid. Hale had a similar moon, so I did not think it strange."

< had created a similar moon on Hale.

It would have been unnatural for him not to have such a thing if he had seen it since his birth.

"In the first place, the ship in which my boarded was one of the later departures of many such ships. I remember that the moon was already where it is now when we arrived in Ars.

The did not care about such side matters at that time," said 700672.

"They were already losing their energy. ......"

He looked a little pained as he said this. His were not very active, it seemed.

"It's done, though, isn't it?"

The look of resignation on No. 700672's face was evident.

"And by the way..."

Trying to change the atmosphere that had become a little heavy, Jin began to talk about something else.

"I heard that some people went back into space on the <>."

"That's new news to me. As I said before, my were not very active, so they were not that active."

"I see. ......"

I was a little disappointed.

"But I remember that the possibility of interstellar travel by artificial hibernation was discussed, so I wouldn't be surprised if there were such people."

Having heard that such a procedure had been considered necessary for long-duration space travel on Earth, Jin found it a little surprising and interesting that science and magic technology had come to the same conclusion.

"But you know what?"

With a heavy tone, No. 700672 continues.

"One of the theories whispered among my is the <>, that a species that has reached the end of its life as a species will slowly decrease in number and begin to perish.

It is clear who he is talking about, but it is not clear from the mouth of the <>, 700672, that he is talking about >. "Perhaps the correct answer is that it is the .

"Perhaps the correct answer was to have blood with the natives, I think."

The < of 700672 chose that path, and their blood lives on today as a demon tribe.

"The people of the former Leonard Kingdom may also have the blood of the <>, though from a different lineage."

"Is that what you mean?"

Jin nodded.

The 600012 who lived underground in Mount Elrud must have served such <>.

Unfortunately, his or information had been corrupted due to the interference of the double with <.

Jin speculated that the natives of Arus might have had such differences in appearance depending on the region, just as the skin color differs in different regions of the earth.

If we could someday learn information about the hidden in other lands, we might be able to answer these questions of the past.

"Unn......"

Reiko called out to Jin as he pondered.

"Father, would it not be better for you to ask the questions you want to ask now and not later?"

"Oh, yes, yes. Reiko, thank you."

Jin decided to change his mind.

The technology that was in UNY.

"No, I didn't know."

"What?"

Whether it was a completely different group or because it was developed at UNY, the 700672 had never heard of the technology. or because it was developed at UNY, 700672 had never even heard of the technology.

"Yes, of course.

Jin smiled and agreed.

"Also, you mentioned something about cryopreservation of fertilized eggs.

Jin decided to take this opportunity to confirm his doubts.

"Oh, I heard that there was a group that was trying to do such a thing. It seems that my did not do so, but they preserved the seeds of plants and the genes of animals that were in Hale."

Jin was strangely convinced that there were people who thought that way.

Jin once again recalls the biota of this ars. The demons are also more powerful than those on Earth.

"Is the life force strong on this planet?"

"Yes, I think so. So it seems to me that we were right to share our blood with the natives.

I had never asked him before, but today Jin was in the mood to ask all the questions he had.

"Well, your skin is white. Their hair varied, but most of them had light golden hair. Some had brown hair. Most of them had light-colored eyes, from light blue to green to violet.

He concluded by saying that by the time the 700672 was created, all of them had the appearance that he had just described.

Erza, who has been cured of her hypermagic disorder, has increased her magical power dramatically and is now at the top level in the world.

I wondered if this might be due to her strong origin blood, but then I recalled that Erza is Erza.

"Thank you very much for all your valuable information.

As far as Jin is concerned, it is impossible for him to have that blood.

However, it is likely that all human beings in this world, to a greater or lesser extent, are descended from him.
