477 # 477 Fairy mother and daughter, and young talent.








I'm just dumbfounded.
Oh, really? I thought it was a pretty interesting idea. Don't you think your mother would have liked this kind of thing?
Well, there's no denying it.

 Hey. Deny it.
 Lean and Coon are talking to each other. They're sisters, no matter how you look at them. Paula, at her feet, is comparing the two of them with crickets. Yeah, that's freaked out.

'I didn't expect Leanne's boy to be the first to arrive...'
Well, you look just like him...
''Ugh......... Where is my child, that is........

 Beside Yumina and Roux discussing while looking at Kuhn, only Yae was somehow depressed. I know the feeling.

''Even so, I didn't think I was the best, though. I wonder if you guys haven't come to the past 《here》 yet?''
No, Alice and Yakumo are here. However, Yakumo has been touring the world and training before coming, so we don't know what happened to him...
''It's just like your sister Yakumo. Then I'll go say hi to Alice later.

 Yakumo-sama......... It's kind of weird, but both Yae's and Lean's children are sisters through me, aren't they? Ah, that's right. I forgot to ask.

''How old is Koon? What's my number?
'I'm ten years old, father. I will be the third child from the top.
"Three daughters..... The eldest is Yakumo, and the second daughter is named Frey by any chance?
Oh, you know my sister Frey too? .........haha, it's Alice. She's so soft spoken...

 I'm not a light-tongued person, but I'm more of a careless person. A valuable source of information for us.

'Who is Frey ... who?'

 As if she had doubts about our conversation, Sakura asked me, tilting her head. 'By 'who' do you mean 'who is it' or 'whose child is it'?

'Sister Freygard is your father's second child. She is your mother's daughter, Hilda.
Me?

 Hilda lets out a sultry voice and moves closer to Kuhn.
 So that means the eldest daughter Yakumo, the second daughter Frey and the third daughter Kuhn?

I'm a great knight in shining armor, Ms. Kuhn!

 Coon is a bit taken aback by Hilda coming at him excitedly. What do you think? What do you think?

It's hard to judge whether or not he's an honorable man because he's one of my family members, but he's certainly a serious knight. He's a bit of an odd knight, though.
"...is it different? How?
That's ... no, let's not do that. I think it would be more interesting to meet him first.

 Ehh..... That again? You guys spend too much weird effort just to surprise us.
 Seeing our disappointed faces, Kuhn chuckles again. She must have some sort of s*x appeal, right?

''Speaking of which, Coon. You can use 【Mirage】.
'Yes, yes, Mother. I can use three other types of non-attribute magic.

 Four. The same number as Lean, that's amazing. It seems that the fairy race and non-attribute magic are very compatible with each other.

''I mean, all of us sisters and brothers [siblings] have at least one attributeless magic.
'What? Really!

 They all have the aptitude for non-attribute magic...! Yae's daughter Yakumo is said to have a [Gate], but I didn't think it was the other children.

''I wonder if this is because of my darling's bloodline?''
'Ummm..... I don't know........

 According to the World God, my children are 'demigods' in a manner of speaking. However, they can't manipulate divine power, and their bodies are said to be earthly humans only. Their lifespans are a bit long, but I haven't heard that they have any special abilities.......
 It's just that......... Since birth, Hanakoi and Morohana have been surrounded by gods and goddesses, and if they loved you while you were growing up, you must have received half a dozen or so blessings from them.
 Even if they didn't become a family member like Yumina and the others, wouldn't they still have the same level of ability as their mothers?
 'Mmmm,' says Kuhn, coming up to me in distress.

'More importantly, father. I would like to go upstairs.
Up?
'It's "Babylon". I can't jump from the castle's transition room, because in this day and age I can't jump without permission yet.

 You know "Babylon"? Well, we're family, so it's not surprising that you know about it.
 There is a transition room in the castle that leads to "Babylon". Anyone can use this room to transfer to "Babylon". Of course, only those with permission can use it, though.
 Naturally, newcomers to Kuhn cannot use it.
 But how did you get to Babylon?

I'm a student of Magical Engineering. Babylon is well-equipped for that, isn't it? It would be a great help to me if I could use that equipment.
What?

 I was surprised. I thought he was in the magical field like Lean, but I didn't know he was in the area of magic engineering.
 For someone who is in the position to create magic tools "artifacts" and golems, "Babylon" would certainly be a dream environment. Could it be that this was the reason why I came straight to Brunhild?

''Other than the [Mirage] I have, the other non-attribute magic I have is [Modeling], [Enchantment], and [Programming]. Don't you think there's no better aptitude for magic engineering than this?

 What's the deal? I'm not sure I'm going to be able to find out what they are. I'm sure that if you can use that kind of magic, I can understand why you want to create all kinds of things.

The only thing that's left is the fact that you can't get away with it. I'll have to show you my work.

 Kuhn takes out a card from his princess sleeve. Is that a 'storage card'?
 When Kuhn swung the card, something large fell from inside, with a crunch.

''Activation [Awaken]
Wha.........?

 With Kuhn's words, it stood up with a munchkin, and its size was about fifty centimeters. Its metal body was rounded and shining. Golem........is it? But that's not what surprised me.
 The round face, the round ears, the tiny limbs, the dull eyes, and the ribbon around her neck.
 I couldn't help but look back at the stuffed bear at Leanne's feet. He, too, hiee! I'm frozen in a pose that says, "I'm surprised," and how surprised I am.
 Yes. That golem looked exactly like Paula.

''Meh, mechapola........''
"'Parla'. Here, say hello.

 The Paula look-alike golem called Parla is oyss! He raised one hand high in the air, as if to say. There is a small operating noise, but it's a smooth, living motion.

'It's a golem, isn't it?'
Yes. I'm using the G-Cube and Q-Crystal from the broken ancient plane Legacy as my base. So I don't have any golem skills or anything, but I can at least provide a little help.

 Paula and Parla stood facing each other like a mirror match, and when Paula raised her left hand, Parla raised her right, and when she jumped, she did the same, and eventually they started moonwalking side by side. Hey, where did you learn that?

'Well? What do you think? Mother?
'It's amazing. It took me two hundred years to get Paula to this point. Even though she's a golem, I think it's a brilliant move.
.....

 When Lean complimented him, Kuhn smiled an age appropriate smile. What, I guess you can laugh like that.
 Lean also smiles and pats Coon's head with a huff. They look like sisters after all, but their appearance is very funny.
 Although the atmosphere is ruined by the two bodies that started a dance battle under their feet for some reason, though.

''Did you learn about Golem from Engineer Elka?
Yes. Dr. Babylon told me a lot of things. I had a job as an assistant over there. I'm only halfway there.

 I think it's great enough. I can do the same magic, but I can't make a golem like this.

You know what? So it's all right, Father. Can you take me to 'Babylon'?
'Ummm...'

 Coon takes my arm and begs me to take him. d*mn, he's cute.
 To be honest, I'm not sure if I'm going to be able to throw her into that pair of engineers. There's nothing worse than a bad thing for education.
 But if you're already studying under them in the future world, it's too late for that.... What are you doing, future me?

Well, okay. I'll go with you. I'll take you to your place.
Thank you, Father!

 Coon smiles and hugs me. Oh no, Musumekawaii.
 d*mn, I know how Ende feels with all my heart. Oh no, this isn't good. I can't resist. It's unconditional surrender.
 Even I can see my cheeks are loose. When I lifted my gaze from Kuhn, I saw Leanne's miffed figure jump into view. Yaba.

''........Hey darling. You're being too delirious.
Oh, Mother, are you jealous?
Don't be silly, now, go away. You don't want to be sent to Babylon, do you?
Yes, sir.

 With a small stick of her tongue, Coon pulls away from me. Somehow I thought I understood the relationship between this mother and daughter.
 It's strange. We haven't even gotten to know each other properly yet, but I feel like it's always been this way.

''There's something of a warm family scene going on here...''
Hmm......... There's a strange sense of alienation........

 Oops, Lou and Sue's eyes hurt. Oh no, I must weigh myself.


          ◇ ◇ ◇ ◇.


I see. So you're Fuyao's and Leanne's daughter. And you're an apprentice of mine and Erca's.
I wasn't a formal apprentice, but I did take lessons from them. I also helped maintain the knight golems.
"The knight Golem?

 Leanne responds to a word she's never heard before. It's a golem I don't know. I know of a military machine soldier 《Soldart》 or a knight-type guard golem.

''They're golems deployed in the future Brunhild. They belong to a sub-organization of the knightly order, and they are led by your mother Yumina, Albus.

 Alves? The white 'crown', [Illuminati Arbus], of which Yumina is the temporary master. It seems that the captain leading that knight [knight] golem or something like that is Albus.

''Hmm. There are a lot of people on the street. I'm sure I've been thinking about that too, but. Regina and I were talking about whether we could build a new golem.
The fact that they're in use in the future means that many of our problems will eventually be solved. If that's the case, there's no reason not to go ahead with it. I think we can use that thing we saw the other day.
''Hmmm.... We'll start with a replica of the G-Cube, starting with the material.......

 The two of them are in a room in a lab in Babylon's "laboratory" and start discussing without us. I don't know what it is, but seeing the two of them grinning and talking to each other, I can't help but feel uneasy. It looks like you guys are just trying to conspire.

''It's business as usual even in the past, isn't it?''
"Hasn't the future changed...

 Well, I knew it couldn't possibly change.
 I wonder if they're still causing some kind of trouble in the future....

"Master, Master, Master! Can I hug that pretty girl with a giggle?
No, f*ck you, you f*cking idiot.
Do you want to be burned?

 Me and Lean answer at the same time.
 Beside us, a huffing and puffing Atlantica, the caretaker of the Institute, is ready to jump on Kuhn at any moment. Stop it, you pedophile. You're going to scare Kuhn.
 Coon, however, took one look at her and sighed, but wasn't too upset.

"Looks like it's good to see you, too.
'Oh yeah...'

 It looks like Kuhn has been in and out of Babylon in the future, so I guess he has some tolerance for it. As a parent, I don't want him to get too used to it, but.......
 As I frowned, hmmm, at the troubled future, Coon tugged at my coat sleeve.

''More importantly, father. I would like to go to the 'hangar'! You've got frame gear on the floor!
'What? Yeah, yeah. I have.

 Kuhn's eyes sparkled as if he was a different person from the mischievous eyes he had before. What's this, it's cute again.
 I mean, are you interested in frame gear as well? Indeed, just about everyone's aircraft are also undergoing maintenance and are housed in the 'hangar'. Rosetta and Monica should be maintaining them.
 With Kuhn hurrying up and urging me to hurry up, Lean and I went to the 'hangar'. I'm very excited.
 We crossed the Workshop from the Laboratory and headed for the Hangar. All the while, Kuhn was in a good mood throughout. This is a childish place to be, after all.

''Wow...!

 Kuhn, who had stepped into the 'hangar', looked at the frame gear that stood in line, with a twinkle in his eye. That much?
 I scanned the frame gear one by one, wandering around with my eyes wandering around. All of everyone's specialized machines, including my Regingrave, were lined up on the hanger. Of course, Lean's Grimgelde is there as well.

''Oyo? Master and Lord Lean. Oh? Is he the child from the future?
"Ooh, you look just like Leanne. Interesting.

 The elevation platform 《Crane》, which was attached to the frame gear, came down with Rosetta and Monica on it.
 The sisters of the Babylon Numbers have the ability to share information with each other. They must have learned about Kuhn from Tika in the "Institute".

'It's not the first time we've met, but it's nice to meet you. My name is Kuhn.

 Kuhn says hello to Rosetta and Monica. Yes, a child who can greet them properly is a good child, I couldn't help but think from a parent's perspective. Leanne next to me also gave a small nod, so maybe she felt the same way.

'I'm happy to see all this frame gear. I'm a little excited.
You know how they have frame gears in the future? Didn't they show you?

 Monica tilts her head at Kuhn's statement. 'If you've been in and out of Babylon's 'laboratories', you should have been in the 'hangar'.

I was born, some of the planes were refurbished after I was born. I never thought I'd see the day when I'd be able to see the Valkyria, an early type of specialized aircraft, with my own eyes. It's very impressive.
I see. I see.

 You understand, don't you? I don't understand, Dad. Wouldn't you like a new one?

'You don't understand, father. If you like something, you want to know all about it, don't you? I heard from your future father that your mother was quite excited and excited when she discovered the library.
What are you talking to my daughter about?
No. That wasn't me. Come on!

 Leaning with a scary smile on her face, she pulls my ear. No, it's me, but this is indeed unreasonable!

Oh, my goodness, you two get on so well together. Leave the two hotties alone, Miss Rosetta and Monica, may I have a look around?
Hey, no problem. Come on, let's go.

 Kuhn steps excitedly into the crane, accompanied by Parra. Um, Mr. Lean? My ears are hurting, so I'm gonna need you to let me go, okay?

What kind of education did I have to make fun of my parents? What kind of education did I have to make fun of my parents?

 Leanne, who let go of my ears, mumbles with a furrowed brow. Oh, ouch.
 I mean, we were probably the ones who educated them, though. It seems that other people may have influenced you in many ways as well.
 I think we are similar to Lean. The way you never compromise on your interests, and the way you tease people with your whims.
 Do you see any similarities to me?

Aren't we alike in our self-indulgence?
I wasn't expecting you to say that.

 You can't speak for other people. Does that mean that the child born to this couple is the most self-indulgent of all?
 I looked up at Rosetta and the others on the crane and at Kuhn, who was happily talking about the frame gear. He really looks like he's having fun.

''Well, the fairy race has a strong spirit of exploration to begin with, so scholars and researchers are suited to it, but... come to think of it, she's also a gold- and silver-ranked adventurer. Did he register as an adventurer in order to collect materials for his magic tools by any chance?

 Speaking of which. I completely forgot about that.
 So Kuhn has a lot of strength, huh? I'm not sure if that power is from magic or from magic tools. It's not a good idea to have an unattributed magic for battle.
 I'm not going to be able to say that I'm not going to be able to do anything about it.

''I didn't even get pregnant or give birth yet, and yet I'm going to meet my daughter. You can live for over six hundred years and never understand life.

  Lean and Sakura's children are of the fairy race and the Demon King race. They have a longer lifespan than the other sisters and brothers [siblings]. If you're not in a hurry to get married, then you might stay in Brunhild for a long time and support this country. No, I'm not asking for a death wish, okay?
 I plan to retire to Babylon in another 100 years, and after that I'll be transferred to the God Realm. Of course I will take my wife and children with me, but I will leave them on earth.
 I don't intend for them to become my family. I want each one of them to find someone they love, start a family and live a happy life.
 I'll see them after I'm gone when I come down to heaven. I may look younger than I am, though.

''Well what's the matter?''
No. I just want Leanne to be there for me, you know?
What's the point? I'll always be there for you, whether you're going to be a god or not. I'll never leave you, okay?
Thank you.

 I hugged Leanne, who was smiling reliably, and kissed her lightly on the lips. At that moment, poof! And with the sound of the shutter, the flash shone from above.

Oh dear, your mother is very bold. It's good to see you and your wife happy. It's a relief for my daughter.
I'm somewhat uneasy about being a mother. Darling, I'm sure you're educating that boy wrong.

 No, I feel like this is what happened because I was educated correctly. I'm just like someone else.
 Of course, I didn't even mention this to him, I just smiled fondly.
 Huh, I can't wait to see what happens next. I can't wait to see what happens next.
