Chapter 293.1: Treasure Chest

Chapter 293.1: Treasure Chest

Welcome back, Cry-san. How was the church? (Eva)

So-So, I guess. It had been a while since I went there and it seems that Anthem is fitting well to the place (Cry)

Clan House. On my way up the stairs to the Clan Master's Office, I ran into Eva and we had a chitchat.

Even though everyone is giving me strange rumors that hurt my reputation, Eva never changes, which is really healing. I hope everyone will learn from her.

So-So So-so? Cry-san, do you think I know nothing about what happened, do you? (Eva)

As usual, Eva gives a small sigh of exasperation at my attempts to appease her.

But Anthem is truly amazing. Aside from being a Hunter, it must be really hard to fit in as a member of the church due to his sizeDoes it mean that his personality outweighs his appearance?

In addition, according to AnthemThere were a number of people besides us who noticed that the black knight appeared from the pendant. It seems that Priest-san told him that when he went to tell Priest-san about the black knight coming out of the pendant. In other words, all the witnesses kept their mouths shut instead of blaming him. He wasn't even blamed for breaking the pillar, how much virtue did he have to accumulate in his previous life to be treated that way As someone who is always being accused of things I didn't do, I really do envy him. But naturally, I don't envy him when he has to be caught up in Lucia's advanced offensive magic.

Let's learn from Anthem and live an honest life I am living an honest life, tho'! I really don't know anything about what's happening, you know!

And then Eva looked at me *niconico* smiling, not understanding why.

Cry-san Aren't you in a strange mood right now? (Eva)

Aaaah Does it show? (Cry)

Why would you be like this even though such a big incident happened in the "Light Spirit (Korei)" Church (Eva)

It is not like I am in a good mood because an incident happenedIt is because I got a souvenir at the very end. What you should have is an excellent childhood friend. Someday, I want to return something to him too, since I keep being on the receiving end.

I heard that Starlight (Hoshi no Seirai) will somehow take care of the mess at the church. There has been a lot of fuss lately about the prophecy, but I think everything is finally coming together. (Cry)

(Eva)

Too many things happened one after another, so I am tired. It is not because I played an active role, but I am exhausted just by watching it from afar as I lack physical strength.

And that is when I noticed Eva *jii* staring at my face. She frowns while having a prudent look. She looks as if there was something on my face, so I involuntarily take a step back.

Wh-What is it? (Cry)

No It is nothing. It is just that I am trying to see if I should buy it or not by reading Cry-san's expression Because recently, it has been a mess due to repeated curse disturbances. A lot of people ran away from the Imperial Capital, you know. So if it is really going to come together Chances are (Eva)

Uuuuun I guess I shouldn't touch it too deeply. As she is completely doing her role as Vice-Clan Master, it is easy to forget that she is a former merchant of the Great Chamber of Commerce. The Imperial Capital has been noisy recently. After the Akasha turmoil, the Dragon attack, and now this prophecy, anyone would be tempted to flee if trouble were to occur in such a short period of time.

It is fine if you run away too, you know, Eva? (Cry)

Because I will run away with you. Hearing what I say half-seriously, Eva stares in wonder and quickly shows me her right palm up. A familiar ring is on her ring finger.

Compared to the past, the recent sturdiness of my Kouhai is dangerous. Physically and mentally, her state is starting to go to a dangerous level. As her Master~, should I be happy about it Or should I be ashamed of not being able to stop Liz. What do I do if Tino specializes in sturdiness and grows as big as Anthem?

Liz takes Tino's arm, who just got up, and pushes it toward me.

It's almost my turn to escort you, riiight? It's a little bit early, but I couldn't wait, so here I am! I'll do my best, okay? You can use Ti as well! Well, there hasn't been any unusual activity since the attack in the Lounge tho' (Liz)

Aaaah, something like that happened, right? (Cry)

Master~, that was just a few days ago, you know!? (Tino)

I see Switching escorts on a daily basis was a countermeasure against surprise attacks, huh.

No, so much has happened since then that It is normal that it became a little bit hazy! I mean, Gark-san, who was blown up by the explosion, was still alive and well! What is going on with that guy?

W-Well, let's leave the details aside. It has been a while since I have been this brilliant. I solemnly say to Liz, who has a twinkle in her eyes and is *sowasowa* fidgeting like a dog that has been told to wait.

*Kohon*, actually, I have something I want to give it to you, Liz. (Cry)

!! (Liz)

I thought it was unfair to only give it to Luke and the others and not to you, Liz. (Cry)

*Kyaaaa*! Cry-chan, I love you! (Liz)

O-Onee-sama You are being improper, desu. (Tino)

Liz *pyon* jumps up, hugs me from behind and *surisuri* rubs me. Just by touching her hot limb, I feel like I am sweating. I had somehow expected this kind of reaction and I am happy that she is pleased like that but how should I say I don't know what is inside the treasure chest I thought she would be delighted even if it was empty, but now that she is pleased like this, I am a little nervous about it.

And I forgot about Tino, but Tino doesn't seem to have any complaints. Rather than that, she is more concerned about Liz, who keeps pressing her nose against my neck.

I am having it carried to the Lounge right now, so (Cry)

*Kyaaaa*! I'm so looking forward to it, let's go! Neeeh? Let's gooo~! (Liz)

Liz goes in front of me in an instant like magic and pulls my arm. Her smile is so dazzling that it warms my heart.

You You wouldn't cry if it turns out to be empty, right?

Contrary to my brilliant mode from earlier, I was about to be crushed by anxiety, when Tino looked at me and said.

The Lounge But I think it hasn't been repaired yet (Tino)

Ah, that's right. I wanted to show everyone the perfect treasure chest, so I specified the lounge But I completely forgot that it was half-destroyed.

Thanks for reading! It's okay Cry, you gonna destroy it again with a new curse so it is good that it isn't repaired yet
