505 # 505 Launch and children's talks.








So, congratulations on your success on the national stage.
"Campery!

 At the call of Mr. Ciatro, all of the circus performers raised their glasses in their hands.
 The circus troupe that had just finished their week-long performance, and the Complet troupe, were invited to our castle's playroom for the launch. Of course, food and drink are included.
 The three gods who came down to the ground, the god of theater, the god of stiffness, the god of dance, Ciatro, the old man of power, Prima, and all the members including the leader of the troupe had gathered in the hall.
 I'm not sure if it's a good idea to have a drink in the middle of the day, but since there is a sense of consolation, I brought in a variety of things for them.

I'm very grateful to His Majesty the King for giving us this opportunity.
'Don't worry about it. I'm just thanking you for entertaining the people. I hope you will come back next time.

 The old man of power calls out to the Commander who bows to me deeply.

It's the other side that says it's okay. You don't need to be shy. Drink and eat your fill, Commander. It's free, so if you don't eat it, you're missing out.
Hey, you don't have to be so rude...!

 The leader of the group showed signs of impatience at the old man's statement of power, which could be taken as a sideline, but then Ciatro-san came in, who had finished his toast.

''Don't worry about it~. Fuyao-chan and Attachi are like relatives. Isn't that right?''
Well, it's going to happen, isn't it?

 Relatives, huh? If they're not my brother or sister, that's fine, but.... It's not too far from the mark.
 The leader of the group was momentarily absent-minded when Ciatro-san called him "Fuyu-chan", but eventually he managed to accept the situation, bowed to me once more and went out for a drink like the group members.
 It's a very good idea to have a good time with them. It's a good idea to bring them to a place where they are drinking.
 The sake god dressed as a child has been drinking at the counter over there since earlier, though.

''Nyahahahaha! Hey, hey, hey! Let's see which one I want to drink next!

 You can't help yourself. This isn't a party for you, okay?
 Beside Drunken Flower, Prima-san, the dancing god, was quietly tipping her wine glass.
 Seeing them, Ciatro-san smiled and opened his mouth.

''It looks like everyone else is enjoying it too. I didn't expect to see you like this on earth.''
How's it feel to be on the ground?
It's great! I'm making the most of my first vacation in tens of thousands of years. I'm so proud of myself when I return to the God Realm!

 It's been tens of thousands of years. Isn't that too much work? No, maybe these gods don't have the awareness that they are working. They don't get paid. The existence of the company itself is part of its role.

The only thing that matters is that you should have brought Fuyao-chan's children along with you. I've missed them~''
'I don't know if it's just a family party, but I might get in trouble at a place like this. I'll let you meet them when I see them off.

 I heard that they will be dismantling the tents and other equipment all day tomorrow, and then leaving for the next show the day after tomorrow.
 I heard that the next performance will be in the royal capital of Belfast. I hope that Prince Yamato, Yumina's younger brother, will be able to see the show. He's only about a year old, don't you think?

But you're in a tough spot. You're a new god and now you're in charge of the world.
''I don't really understand it myself........ Hanakoi's sisters are supporting me, so I can manage.

 I don't really know what to do for this world, in fact, I don't really know what to do for this world. I used to think that defeating the attacking flames would be good for the world.

I'm sure you'll be able to find a way to make the most of it. I'm sure you'll do your best.
I'll keep in mind...

 Ugh. Don't put too much pressure on it.

There's some weird stuff creeping around again. Watch out for that, okay?
Is that weird?
It's the remnants of the evil spirits. They are planning something bad, but.... But we don't have anything to do with that.

 An apostle of the evil gods, huh? It's true that this has nothing to do with Mr. Ciatro and the others, even though they are the god race. We'll have to take care of this. As the World God said, it's just like cleaning up a mess.

Well, I'll let you know if anything else is bothering me on the journey, so do your best in that area too.

 With a fluttering wave, Ciatro-san returned to the circle of everyone.
 The Ark robbery and the half-fish man who attacked Arosa Island...the Apostle of the Evil One is working behind the scenes in both cases. What are they up to?
 Is the goal still the resurrection of an evil god or the birth of a new evil god?
 After all the peace we've achieved, there's no way we're going to let them tear the world apart again. I'm going to crush you for sure.
 ........However, there's not much I can do at the moment.

"Winter Night
Mr. Winter's Night.

 As I stared into the void and was lost in thought, Else and Linse, who had been in the crunch, came over to me.

''Good night. Are you guys okay?''
It's easier than having to deal with queens and princesses. I wish it were always this way.

 Else doesn't like to party much. No, it's not that she doesn't like parties, it's just that she doesn't like formal occasions.
 You can't help but respond as a queen carrying the signboard of "Brunhild" on your back at occasions such as the World Congress, where the leaders of countries gather. It's probably not easy to feel that tension.
 I feel that Lindsay is much more used to it. She has always been a shy person, but I feel that she plays a different role in such situations. She is the "Queen Brunhild".
 Well, that doesn't change the fact that it's part of her.

'I wish I could have brought my children with me.
'No, not in a place with so many drunks, even at noon.... It's bad for education.

 I replied to Linse as I looked at the corner that had already been created by drinking and bathing in alcohol.
 In this world, drinking is usually allowed at the age of fifteen or so. What if I brought my kids here and they were interested in drinking? I'm not going to turn my daughters into drinkers, I'm not.
 Fortunately, my wives don't show much interest in drinking. Leanne and Lou are the only ones. Leanne only enjoys wine, and Lou only tastes it when she finds a drink to go with her food.

'I wonder if they're being quiet.
You'll be fine. I've got Amber and the others watching over me.

 Amber, the other divine beasts, and Albus are taking care of the children. If they need anything else, they'll be in touch with you via telekinesis.

Where did you say you were going?
To 'Parente.' I gave him some money to go eat cake or something, though.

 Mr. Ael's coffee shop "Parente"? Well, there's no problem with just the kids there.
 ...I hope they don't make too much noise and cause problems for the other customers.
 I'm still a bit worried about the situation. I feel bad for Ciatro and the others, but I'll have to leave early and go pick them up.


          ◇ ◇ ◇ ◇


Big sister Yakumo and Hisato, but Stef is slow, too.

 Lynne murmured as she zipped through the remaining low juice water with a straw.

'Where was Stef when it happened?'
'Hmm, I think he was next to Kuon. I'm not sure.

 Yoshino replies to Kuhn's words as he picks at his fries. Stef is their youngest sister. Just five.

It's not surprising, then, that both of them are already here in this era. You could have at least contacted them.
Maybe he dropped his phone. We dropped it in the river too so...

 Erna replied to follow up on Arthia's blurbs. When we arrived in this era, Erna and Lynne dropped their phones into the great river of Gau. Without that thing, there was no way to contact Brunhild and her sister-brothers and siblings.
 If you can use transfer magic like Yakumo and Yoshino, then there's no problem.

''Don't worry about big sister Yakumo, but the problem is Kuon and Stef........''
'Isn't Kuon okay? She's a very stylish girl, and she has a good exterior, don't you think?

 Arthia throws harsh words at her own brother. The fact that none of the sisters or siblings refused to speak out against it is typical of this younger sibling.

''It's sweet. It's not just a matter of time before you find yourself in the middle of the night. It's what your father calls a 'troublemaker'. It's a good idea to be able to have a good time with your friends. Like a fish that was lured by a fishing bait.
Oh sure,

 Aasia nodded at Kuhn's point. The younger brother seems to be completely harmless, but in fact, the probability of such trouble is high even among the sister-brothers or siblings. It's not just once or twice that he was almost kidnapped, and it's not just once or twice that he went too far.

''Well, I don't think that's why they'll do anything about Kuon, though.
''With those 'Seven Magic Eyes', we can make it. If we're lucky, they'll be here by now. If that's the case, I'll have to go with Steph. I'm worried about that boy, he's restless.

 Everyone else gives Linneh a warm look at her sisterly ways. As the seventh sister, she is the younger sibling to Linne, but to the other sisters, it doesn't seem to make much difference. The same is true for you if you're restless,'' she said.

By the way..... I'm sure you'll be able to find out more about this. And Alice.
Go?
"Huh?

 Kuhn turns jit eyes on Frey and Alice, who were trying the "Parento" special, a jumbo parfait, beside her. Both of them are covered in whipped cream all over their faces and are chewing on their parfaits.

'It's okay, it's okay. Hisato and Stef are both safe. It takes a god to do something about my family.
I'm worried about those with divine powers.

 The Messenger of the Evil One. Those who have inherited the power of the evil gods that their fathers defeated are planning something in this era.
 Tokie, the God of Time and Space, says that the flow of time is essentially several tributaries, each with a different future.
 However, it seems that the flow of time in this world we are in, with the help of the spirits of time, is firmly fixed. Regardless of what they do in this era, the time spirits' power alters it so that it will not affect their original future.
 If this is the case, we should be able to return to the future normally, and return to our original era, our original world.
 However, when the uncertainty of the evil god's messenger is added to this, the flow of time is unknowable. The power of the spirit of time is no match for the power of the gods. If the flow of time changes in any way, they may not be able to reach the future they were in. Or worse, they might not even be able to exist.

Hello, Stopp. I know what you're thinking, Koon, but it's a waste of time to think about it.
But...
'There's your father and your mother, you know? It's okay, it's okay. Don't worry about that, just eat the parfait. Here, ahhh.

 Kuhn was somewhat surprised at the spoon offered to him, but he took a bite of it just as his sister told him to. The sweetness of the thick cream spreads in your mouth.

''Huh........ Talking with sister Frey makes me feel like a fool for thinking about this and that........
'You're just thinking too much, Koon. The bottom line is that we can destroy the Messenger of the Evil One. It's easy.
Well, yes.

 It's strange because when this sister, who seems to be out of the loop, says that to me, it seems like an easy thing to do.

''At the very least, it would have been better if Crom Ranches' 'Ark, Ark' hadn't been taken away and was in our hands.

 Kuhn glances at the 'white' crown, Illuminati Albus, who is sitting at the table next to them.
 While Amber, Ruri, and Coral, sitting together with Kuroshio and Benidama, are crunching on the sweets they ordered, Albus, who has no eating function, is simply sitting on a chair without a location.
 Kuhn speaks to Albus, "Albus.

'Albus. I'm going to ask you again, can we assume that the other side is getting the 'crown'?
'Affirmation. Osorak "gold" ka "silver
Does this 'gold' and 'silver' have the same special crowning ability as you guys?
"Unknown. Gold and silver are not yet complete. There's no possibility of them having any abilities.

 Unfinished. If it's just a golem from the Crown series, it's only the key to moving the Ark. That's fine then. But what if that golem had the Crown Ability 《Crown Skill》?
 In exchange for forcing the contractor "Master" to pay a "price", the "Crown" gives him immense power.
 Even if it's not yet completed, the engineer who created the four-armed cloven-legged golem should be on the other side. There's no guarantee that the golem engineer won't regenerate (restore) the 'gold' and 'silver'.

''I need more information........ I need more information from all over the world......... In the future, we can collect information on social networking sites, yikes!

 Kuhn holds his head in place as Frey suddenly releases a chop.

'Duh! They don't think so hard! We just need to relax and wait for them now. I want everyone to get together.
No, but...
Hmm?
Okay, I understand.

 Kuhn pulled back to his sister, who was holding her sword in her mouth with a smiling smile on her face as she held the spoon in her mouth. I understand that this sister is the most fearful when she is angry.
 My sisters, who also understand the same thing, were concentrating on the sweets in front of them so that they wouldn't get clobbered.
 In an attempt to change such an atmosphere, Erna decided to wave a different topic.

'Hey, what shall we do after this?'
Oh, I want to go to the Adventurer's Guild!
Oh, me too!

 Alice agrees with Linne's words. In contrast, Arthia and Yoshino made a face that was not very enthusiastic.
 The non-attribute magic these two possessed was not very suitable for combat. Arthia has 【Apports】 and 【Search】, while Yoshino has 【Teleport】, 【Absorb】 and 【Reflection】, a line of magic that is mainly defensive. Also, they don't like fighting itself that much.
 Nevertheless, if it's as a foodstuff, Arcia also hunts demonic beasts, and Yoshino can use the fire and wind attributes of magic. He's considerably stronger than those adventurers.

The first thing to do is to go to the adventurer's guild. You can't register at our age, you know?

 Kuhn states why Lynne would understand. There is no age limit to register for the Adventurer's Guild, for one thing. However, if you are too low, you will be rejected at the point of registration. The guild doesn't do anything that would cause the death of a child.
 Still, well, if you show your ability, you can get registered.

"It's not a registration, it's a purchase, sister Coon. During the hunt the other day, don't you have a lot of demonic beasts that you defeated in big sister Frey's [Storage]?
'Oh! I forgot about it. I see, you don't have to be an adventurer to redeem it.

 Frey clapped his hands as he remembered.
 Basically, there isn't a lot of money free for children. Even if they are small, they are still a princess of a country, they can make a living and are given what they really need, but they are not given equal amounts of money.
 The Mochizuki family's policy is to be self-sufficient, so if you want money, you have to earn it yourself. That could be pocket money that they receive from helping out family members and relatives, but the biggest of these is the income from the Adventurer's Guild.
 As for how the money was used, Frey would spend it on collecting rare weapons and other items, Kuhn would spend it on developing his own magic tools (artifacts), and Arthia would purchase high-grade foodstuffs, but all of them had their own personal assets in their own right.
 However, at their father's insistence, they had all been forced to save up in the guild, so they had brought very little with them in this era.

''Then when you're done eating, you'll go to the Adventurer's Guild.
Well, it's your treat, Frey.
Ugh..... Well, it's okay. I'm buying it, I'm the biggest sister right now.

 Frey flinched for a moment at Yoshino's words, but he showed some leeway in front of his sisters. The three people who went hunting were Frey, Lynne, and Alice. As expected of a family member, Alice, the youngest in the family, couldn't let Linne, the youngest in the family, buy a drink.
 After paying the bill, the pocket money I received from each of my mothers for eating at [Parent], all of them disappeared for Frey.
 However, her [Storage] has material that would be worth more than that amount lying around, so she hasn't suffered much damage.
 On the contrary, perhaps because she found a source of income, she's smiling and walking on the road to the Adventurer's Guild.

''It's been a long time since I've gotten a lot of money. I'm going to buy some unusual weapons!
You're absolutely right, Miss Frey. I think you should stop wasting your money, don't you?
Hey, it's not a waste of time! It's a necessary expense!

 What on earth is the expense? Arthia sighed in disgust. Seeing this, Kuhn also shrugged his shoulders.
 When the children eventually arrived at the Adventurer's Guild, they headed to the reception counter in a natural, self-conscious manner.
 On the contrary, the adventurers around them were more likely to ask, ''Why are there so many children?'' The question was expressed on his face.
 It was the same for the guild's receptionist.

''Uh, what can I do for you?''

 Misha, the receptionist's cat beastman, hides some agitation and smiles. Children rarely come to the guild, but it's not zero. There are adventurers with children, and sometimes an errand boy will bring in a request form instead.
 Misha decided that it was that way.

'I'd like to ask you to buy some materials.
'What? Buying out?

 Misha is amused by the unexpected words. It's true that they also buy materials, but none of them are brought in by children.
 However, the things that children can hunt, such as wild rabbits and wild birds, are at best. If that's the case, you'd be better off going to a butcher for a higher price. Could it be that they sold it at the wrong place?

You see, you can't buy this place unless you're a magical beast or something. If it's a rabbit or a bird, then...
'They're demonic beasts. There's the King Bear, the Bloody Goat, oh, just the tail, but there's also the Nees Hegg.
... what?

 Misha's eyebrows are raised. King Bear and Bloody Goat are both red-ranked targets to be defeated. Furthermore, isn't Nees Hegg and other demonic dragons. Bullshit is also good.

''You know what, girls? You'd better get out of here if you want to play.
Sister Frey, it would be quicker to show them.
That's okay. Well,

 Boom! and a huge goat with bright red body hair suddenly appears on top of the spread-out purchase counter. It's a Bloody Goat.
 The air in the guild freezes at the corpse of the demonic beast that suddenly appeared. It wasn't often in Brunhild that a red-ranked defeat target was brought in, and for that reason, everyone was surprised without a voice.
 Misha was Misha and was surprised by something else. Now that was definitely storage magic. The magic reminded her of one person.
 When Misha looked back from the Bloody Goat to the children, she saw a white baby tiger she'd seen at the children's feet, grooming them in her spare time.

''Well, no way........ His Majesty's relation...? Nope, just a minute!

 Misha ran up the stairs behind the counter with a pale face. Those present were pocussed and looked at the stairs Misha ran up and the Bloody Goat.

'Frey sister, blood. You're dripping blood.'
'Aya? Oh no, I shouldn't.

 To Erna's point, Frey stores the Bloody Goat in [Storage] again.
 Time stops for the ones put into 【Storage】. The Bloody Goat was still the same as when it was defeated, so it hadn't even been bled out yet and stained the receiving counter with blood.
 Just like when it appeared, the Bloody Goat suddenly disappeared, and the other receptionists were speechless as they opened their mouths with a pout. The adventurers who were present did the same.

''There's something strange in the air, isn't there?''
'Yeah. What's going on with everyone suddenly shutting up?

 Yoshino responds to Arthia's words. In the Adventurer's Guild of the future, children were known as that, and although they were surprised, it didn't go this far. That was a strange feeling.
 None of them were very aware that they were different from normal children. They don't really know what they are surprised about.

"Hey, what are these kids?

 In the meantime, a man comes through the entrance of the guild and emits a thunderous voice.
 He is a huge man, nearly two meters tall. You can find a lot of people who have a haircut that looks like a chicken tosser, a used battleaxe on their hips, a sleeveless leather jacket and shoulder armor, followed by men dressed in similar clothes who might say, 'Is this country's king's majesty a fin-de-siecle thug?
 You can find a lot of people who have been in the market for a long time, but you can't find a lot of people who have been in the market for a long time. Normal children would have run away or trembled with their gaze.
 But none of the children were moved by his gaze, instead they looked up at the End of the Century Army with curious eyes.

''Weird head.''

 The air in the place froze at Linne's casual mumbled words.
