Kwak Kwah Kwah Kwah Kwah!
The sky was covered with explosions of countless stars. When I looked up, it was so full of dazzling light that I couldn’t even open my eyes properly.
Simon, who ran away with Gafen through the rings one after another, laughed.
‘Can I do that?’
Directly below is an island in the sky, and the airspace is becoming a mess.
It may seem a bit excessive, but it was definitely caused by Dana’s preemptive attack on Lethe’s investigator. Even Simon didn’t expect that Dana, who had to take care of herself due to recent work, came out like that.
In the end, that battle would be stopped by the intervention of someone higher, and Dana would give Lethe a chance to be attacked. In addition to this incident, Lethe will relentlessly bite Dana by tying up a demon subjugation battle.
“Investigator, you are really, how to say… … .”
Gafendo said while looking up at the sky with a slightly bewildered face.
“You seem to have a lot of connections with the saints.”
Hearing that, Simon averted his gaze.
“Yeah, I will.”
It wasn’t that there were many ties, but that he was born inside the belly of a saint in the first place. When she learns that Simon’s mother is the miraculous Saint Anna Cross, she will be surprised and upset.
And a being that did not yet exist on the continent, a ‘saint’.
Ironically, Simon was also the person closest to that being.
Ugh! Ugh! Ugh!
As I moved through the rings in succession with Gafen, I saw a train moving on the ground in the distance.
Gafen said.
“You are right on time. Let’s go inside.”
Gafen spread the loop over the moving train, and the two went inside at the same time.
Courage!
The sight that comes out as soon as you pass through the ring is the inside of the train.
Gafen landed lightly, but Simon, who was not familiar with this technique, sat down on the floor and made a loud noise.
The eyes of the people on the train were focused at once.
“Who are you!”
The train workers who were smoking nearby stood up in surprise.
Gafen gave them an insignificant glance and held out his hand to Simon.
“Are you okay?”
“Oh, thank you. professor.”
Afterwards, several more train workers entered this compartment. one of them hastily said.
“Chi, intruder! I need to call the Heretic Questioner… … !”
“You work hard. Professor Ephnell is Andoria.”
Gafen held out his ID and showed it to the train staff. Their eyes went wide.
“Go, go go? you?”
“The boarding was noisy because of various circumstances. Here are the tickets too.”
After checking the ID and ticket, the train staff immediately took a bow and greeted. Gafen issued a command not to disclose their coming and going because it was a matter related to Ephnell’s work, and then went into the room with Simon.
The ticket Gafen had was a first-class room pass. The temperature was also maintained comfortably, and the inside of the train was made like a private room.
good.
The moment he put his buttocks on such a soft and comfortable seat, Simon immediately felt the tension in his whole body release and he became listless.
‘Sah, lived.’
This trip to Sky Island was dynamic until the last minute. Gafen, who was sitting across from me, said with a benevolent smile.
“I suffered. I will accompany you to the next station.”
He handed over a new train ticket.
“Investigator, please transfer to the next train. It is a clean ticket that cannot be traced. Even if Saint Dana’s influence is great, it won’t reach that far.”
“Thank you professor.”
Simon was a little tired.
I wanted to close my eyes a little like this.
“Human greed knows no bounds.”
Gafen didn’t seem to think so.
His eyes twinkled.
“I was grateful and content to the Goddess just to know that the child was alive, but now I wonder how the child is doing. Until she gets to the next station, may I ask her to speak?”
There was also a reason why Gafen personally came forward to help.
Simon laughed bitterly.
“I also heard the story across a bridge, so I don’t know the details. Can I just tell you what I know?”
Gafen immediately grabbed Simon’s hands.
“please!”
So Simon told Gafen about Serene.
Of course, the background of her ivory tower, position, family, school, etc., which can be presumed, was omitted and thoroughly limited to her personal story.
Stories like personality, disposition, hobbies.
That alone made Gafen extremely happy. In particular, when the dramatized story of Serne’s sacrifice for her friend was told, tears welled up in her eyes.
“I’m glad I grew up as a good kid who wasn’t crooked.”
Simon didn’t say anything and looked out the window at the distant mountains.
good ira I don’t think Cerne is evil, but he seemed far from that word.
“More than that, investigator. Do you still have that item?”
“ah! of course.”
An artifact that Gafen asked Serene to deliver.
It was well kept.
“If the child gets lost and hesitates, I want to tell you this.”

Gafen said with a slightly solemn expression.
“I don’t even have to think about other possibilities that would have been like this then. You are the most precious and most like you the way you are right now. I say.”
“ah.”
Simon nodded his head with a slightly moved expression.
I also thought that he was Serene’s grandfather.
“I will make sure that the message can be delivered along with the object.”
Gafen took out a handkerchief for a moment and rubbed his eyes, then lowered his head.
“i look forward to.”
***
What followed was one-of-a-kind.
At the next station, Simon, who parted with Gafen, transferred to another train, and spent two days resting without doing anything.
And they arrived at the village near the Neutral Zone, where Simon first came.
– Nephew!
Israfil met me at the train station.
Although she wore a robe, she stood out among the crowd because of her height. In particular, she was holding a sign in her hand that read ‘My Nephew’ and had a heart next to her. Embarrassed for nothing, Simon approached her while paying attention to the people around her, and she quickly covered the sign.
Afterwards, we went to the restaurant and enjoyed a grand dinner prepared by Israfil. There he recounted the events of the Sky Isles.
From the command to subdue the demons that fell to the sky island, to the appearance of a new saint, Lisara, and to the story of the arrested general secretary. Israfil knew everything, but wanted to hear it directly from Simon’s mouth.
Then, the moment Dana told the story of the attack on the train targeting Simon himself, Israfil’s eyes suddenly opened.
– A year to kill.
Simon then learned what extreme fear transcends the realm of cognition.
I was scared several times more than when I was being chased by Dana.
After belatedly seeing Simon’s expression, Israfil, who came to his senses with an ‘ah’, closed his eyes again and smiled innocently, covering his mouth, but Simon had already had that image firmly embedded in his head.
-Thanks for the longer trip! our nephew When are you going back?
– I’m thinking of going back tomorrow. Dana will be chasing me, so I thought it would be better to hurry back.
-I’m sorry, but I think that’s the right decision. Say hello to Anna!
With the help of Israfil, we rested for a day, and after saying goodbye to her, we set off.
All preparations for crossing the border had been completed by Israfil. Guided by the broker, whose face is now familiar, Simon hides in the wagon again and crosses the border.
From the Holy Commonwealth to the Neutral Zone, from the Neutral Zone to the Dark Union again.
Humans are animals of adaptation. At first, it was uncomfortable in the wagon, where it was difficult to breathe, so I kept changing positions and whimpering, but now I just fell asleep without knowing the world.
As a result, it is the Dark Union.
Several times Simon even tipped the broker who made his illegal trip a success. Soon, using the identity of the student council president of Keyzen, he rode the teleport magic circle and moved to Hob, a nearby territory.
He took a carriage from Hob and returned to Leshill, his hometown.
The moment the carriage crossed the hill, a picturesque view of the hometown unfolded. After Simon paid the driver, he said he would go on his own feet from here on out.
As if taking a light walk, I jumped over the mountain and ran to my house.
‘It’s a house.’
Simon smiled as he looked at the door in front of the friendly house.
I thought I had a really good time this vacation.
For the rest of the time, I planned to recuperate in Les Hill and return to Rock Island.
‘I’m looking forward to living in the third year.’
The moment Simon puts the back of his hand to the door to knock.
sniff sniff.
Sensing something out of the ordinary, Simon focused on his sense of smell.
The smell of food was strong.
‘Is Mama preparing the meal already? this time?’
Simon took a step back and examined the roof.
Smoke continues to come out.
It seems that they prepare a little more than the usual amount of meals the two couples eat.
in other words.
‘Looks like there are guests.’
Simon put that information into his head and knocked on the door again.
– Oh, Simon. have you come now come in
I heard the voice of my father, Richard, from beyond the door.
Simon opened the door and went inside.
Somehow, the house was busy. Richard, who was just walking out the front door, was giving a signal with his eyes while clearing his throat.
‘Is your father nervous? Who is the replacement guest? … .’
“Hello!”
A small hand shook and spread out from the kitchen.
Simon’s eyes widened as he wanted someone.
A small girl with flowing silver hair.
But its true identity is no different.
“Miss Nephthys!”
***
The families of Nephthys and Pollentiaga sat together.
Nephthys was sitting in the middle of the table, enjoying the pie, Richard and Anna were sitting side by side on the left side, and Simon was sitting on the right side with a tense face.
“Why are you so late Simon! It was so hard waiting for me!”
said Nephthys whining.
“… … ?”
As Simon put on a look of incomprehension, Richard explained everything.
A week ago, Nephthys came to Leshill to talk to Simon. Richard claimed that Simon had gone on a world tour during the vacation, and that he would send a letter to Roch Island to let him know when he arrived, but Nephthys said he would wait here until Simon returned and sat down in Les Hill.
the result.
‘That volleyball.’
After playing and eating for a week and eating all the lavish snacks Anna had prepared, Nephthys had a bulging stomach. she said, looking at her Anna.
“Anna! Today’s pie is so delicious!”
“Oh ho ho! You are exaggerating, Miss Nephthys.”
A combination of glutton and Anna.
Just looking at it draws a picture.
“Ah, more than that, what are you talking about?”
When Simon got to the point, Nephthys put the pie in his hand into his mouth, sucked the sugar off his hand, and looked at Simon.
“It is time to keep my promise to you. Simon.”
“yes?”
“One month from now.”
Nephthys spread her arms.
“I will announce to the world that you are a corps commander.”
