142 I regret that much.

Lauren was a little surprised at Ellen's sudden visit, but she took pleasure in accepting her request.

When Ellen, who had a souvenir, summoned the Goddess of Double, she immediately turned to the boundary of Double Goddess and was invited.

Ellen-chan ~

"Are you okay?

Vaud and Val waved their hands to welcome Ellen.

"... my father is sorry. Thank you for evacuating Gadier."

Vale laughed funny to Ellen as she thanked her.

"Oh, nothing to worry about. Rover is almost spiritualized. I can't help it."

"Eh...?

Ellen leaned her neck into a disconnected vein.

What does it mean to spiritualize Rover?

"That's right. Rover is a half-spirit, devoted to Origin, both physically and mentally. Use humans and spirits on the balance to get the spirits without hesitation. Whether it's you or Ellen, if she really decides it's harmful, she's not lost."

Like before, Val laughed.

"Wow, is that a laugh!?"

Ellen sneezed her face, and both goddesses couldn't hide their upset.

"It might have been a little extreme for Ellen...."

"Yes, I see. We were used to Rover doing it all the time... but do you remember what I asked Ellen about Helena?

"Do you remember...?

"Do you remember what Lovell said about avoiding the war? So you asked Ellen to go to Helgner, right?

"Ha, yes...."

Of course I remember that. And I knew the danger of Rover being there.

That's why Ellen went to help Lovell.

"There were two other futures there. A future in which Rover was angry with the royal family trying to reach Ellen, a future in which the two nations would wage war, and a future in which Rover was angry with the curse, a future in which humans and spirits would wage war all over the world."

"... eh?

"Both of them involve Rover. That's why I said I couldn't. Both humans and spirits could avoid war only with Ellen, who had no balance."

"Rover doesn't hesitate to kill humans anymore. By that time, I had been forced to hate everything since I was a kid. As I swore when I semi-spirited that I would give everything to the Origin who helped me. That's why the Templar royal family won't be merciful."

…………

"Your family was always bothering spirits, wasn't it? That's why I was so mad at Rover for trying to kill Ellen without questioning her."

Once again, Ellen's face was distorted.

As tears floated, the goddesses panicked even more.

"That's why I can't even do that from Rover...!

"Ah, Ellen! Don't cry! Thanks to Ellen, Lovell can be a little more on the side of humans!

"Still... nevertheless... don't try to kill people without concern..."

"Yes! I'm sure you are!

"Yes! Let's do it together next time!

Double goddesses tried very hard to comfort Ellen.

Ellen was happy, but sad at the same time.

Now, in retrospect, Van also said when Rafilia was kidnapped.

I am a spirit. Why should I help a human child?

He said it was a hose.

Don't be complacent, humans. You will only survive with the warmth of the queen and princess. "

Ellen was always looking at humans. Values in the first place are different between people and spirits.

(Still... my father, who was a human, hated humans...)

Sad. That's what I thought.

Ellen, guided to the place where Gadier was, panicked when she saw Gadier lying tightly on the sofa.

"Ga, Gadier!

"It's okay, Ellen. It's just like I woke up too soon."

"Yeah, my eyes aren't used to the color of the world yet."

"... the color of the world?

"The world we're looking at contains only spirits."

"Only spirits... can you see them?

"Basically, humans don't see spirits, do they? I'm tired of seeing what we look like at once."

"Ah...."

Is it the impression that the monochromatic world has suddenly become bright?

As Ellen approached Gadier lying on the sofa, Gadier raised her voice.

"... Ellen?

"Gadier, are you aware of this?

"Oh, I'm sorry. I haven't been able to open my eyes yet... and I've heard from the goddesses."

As she got up from the sofa, Gadier sat on the sofa as she searched.

The goddesses used their strength to prepare tables and chairs.

Ellen also told Double Goddess that it was a gift by placing a hand souvenir on the table, and the Double Goddess was delighted to notice the sweets inside.

"No! Nice treats!

"I'll get you some tea!

Ellen sat next to Gadier as she dropped off the two goddesses who were about to prepare.

"Ellen, thank you for your help."

"Yeah, I'm really sorry about my dad."

I couldn't stop crying when I remembered Rover's intention to kill Gadier in earnest.

Did you see that Ellen was crying because of the signs? Gadier opened her eyes and wiped her tears.

"Lovell once told Ellen directly that he was going to kill Buzz."

"Eh!?"

"That's why I was ready to do it... but it's not merciless, it's pure."

"Eh!?"

Gadier smiled bitterly at Ellen, whose eyes were black and white.

"Our royal family... had hunted down Lord Lovell so long ago. I'm really sorry."

"Ga, it's not like Gadier apologizes...! Your Majesty and Mr. Agile must be the cause.

"No, that's fine. Ellen, I'm sorry I got you into this, but I don't want to ruin Lord Rover's relationship with Ellen. I would like to talk to Lord Rover once my eyes are properly opened."

"Gadier....."

"Besides, I can't escape without seeing it properly. Ellen didn't just protect her, she had to deal with it herself."

Fufufu, Gadier laughed, and Ellen was gloomy.

Suddenly, Ellen's face became dull and distorted, and tears spilled.

Ellen was scared to meet Rover because she was surprised that she had stepped through an unexpected mine and had never had a big parent-child fight before.

Everyone was so close that once the relationship broke down, they didn't know how to fix it.

Gadier, who noticed that Ellen was worried, told Ellen the thread of the solution.

When she touched Gadier's kindness, the tears she had endured until now flooded like they had cut a weir.

Gadier, who noticed Ellen's swallowing, grabbed Ellen and gently rubbed her back.

"Ugh, uhh, uhh, uhh, ma'am, I'm so sorry..."

"... yeah"

"Uhhh... uhhh..."

As she rubbed Ellen's back, the returning goddesses shouted, "Oh dear."

"Ellen's still too early to leave her parents."

"Oh, I can't help it. But Ellen really looks just like Rover."

Giggled, the goddesses laughed as they looked at Ellen and Gadier with a smile.

"Does Ellen resemble Lord Lovell...?

Even though the hair color and hairstyle are similar, I don't think the answers to faces and things are similar.

Vaur laughed at Gadier as she leaned her neck.

"Shocked by the fight, it's like crying all the time."

"Origin-chan is shouting," Ellen hates me! "You look just like him, don't you?

Gadier also smiled bitterly at the words of the two goddesses giggling.

"Ellen, Lovell also seems to regret it. Let's go apologize together."

……………

Upon receiving Gadier's words, Ellen raised her face and said clearly, wiping away her tears with determination.

"I'm going to see my father, but... I'll never apologize. I'm still mad at you for trying to kill Gadier."

The two goddesses who heard it laughed loudly.
