Chapter 1905: Intermission: At the End of a Long Journey
<Author's Notes>
I didn't have much time, so today's chapter is a bit short.
At the foot of the World Tree, which is located in the open space of a large garden in Symphonia Kingdom's Royal Capital...... Nebula was making something with her processed branches.Findd new stories at novelhall.com
Because she has a restriction that prevents her from being a certain distance away from her World Tree, she could not participate in the ship party, so instead, she can only stay at Kaito's home, where she is making woodwork to pass the time. But soon after, Nebula stopped her work and let out a sigh with a somewhat dismayed expression on her face.
[......Good grief, what a roundabout way to go about things.]
The air seemed to shake just slightly right after Nebula murmured that. Under normal circumstances, it wouldn't just be something that makes one feel discomfort about, but for the Absolute Nebula, it was easy for her to guess what had happened.
[Instead of visiting directly, you went out of your way to create a phase-shifted other space just to meet......]
[Ahh~~ No, umm...... I know your situation over here, so let's just say I was being a little cautious...... Umm...... You see...... errr......]
[ ! ? Nebu...... Nebula...... -sama......]
[ ! ? ! ? NEBULA-SAMAAAA!]
As Nebula lightly patted her head with a gentle smile, Canaris, unable to hold back any longer, clung to Nebula and started crying loudly.
Seeing this, Nebula smiled lightly while continuing to gently stroke her head.
[Good grief, I thought of serving you some tea since you came all the way here, but it seems that will have to wait a while longer...... But well, accepting such things is also the duty of this Absolute, so cry until you have let everything out.]
Her voice was gentle and warm...... that just hearing those words made Canaris feel as if all the long and painful days had paid off, and Canaris continued to cry like a little child in Nebula's chest.

Serious-senpai : [Hmm, I slept well. I'm sure the party isn't over yet, but it should have progressed quite a bit.]
? ? ? : [That's right. It just finished...... the serious development we've had after a long time, that is.]
Serious-senpai : [........................Eh?]
