388 Episode 2: Explaining to Yume

…………

The bottom floor of Naraka.

In the room where Elles' brother was kept, I sat in my chair, staring at my brother, who had been stopped, and shut up.

My brother Els, who is my real brother, was turned into a monster by the hand of one of the demon kingdom docs. On the way to attack me, he returned to his sanity and died.

Now, in this morgue, Ellis is stopping his dead brother with the help of Ellie.

"It's not difficult to resuscitate simply..."

Even if I resurrected it like this, it would only become a monster again.

There's no way to get from monsters back to the status quo.

(Thanks to May's advice, I realized that Els might have an [Infinite Gacha] card that would return you to the race from the monster...When will that be....)

When I found time, I also started to draw cards at the bottom of the [Naraka].

Even my favor (gift) has drawn a card in the "UR Second Shadow (Double Shadow)", but the favor (gift) has deteriorated.

So it is more likely that I will draw a good card myself.

That said, I have other things to do, so I can't do that... "

One of the things I had to do was explain the current situation of Brother Els to my real sister, Yume, and I explained the current situation of my brother to Yume a little while ago.

Because as my brother, I needed to explain it from my own mouth.

I think back to my interaction with Yume while sitting next to Brother Els.

”...... Yume, I was able to find you and protect you.”

!? That's right, Chan! Amazing!

In order to explain to Yume, I asked her sidekick fairy maid to set up a tea ceremony for me.

I wasn't sure how to cut it out... but I chose to speak straight.

Yume made a smile with her big eyes glittering at my words.

Contrary to her expression, my mouth was very heavy. [M]

"... but Els-chan is very seriously injured, and she can't talk right now.""If it's true, I'd like to let you meet Yume and talk to her..."I won't be able to see you for a while for treatment.When you're feeling better, come with me to see Els-chan. "

…………

Yume didn't react to this word immediately.

I felt like I understood something from my expressions, words, and tricks.

I can feel the air because I am a brother and sister.

I'm not lying, but I'm not telling the truth.It may have conveyed something I can't talk about.

However, I was reluctant to speak honestly about the current situation.

"Els has been transformed into a monster, and it is difficult to return to the race."I can't say that I have to wait until I get a healing card from the infinite gacha. "

That said, I didn't mean to keep quiet about finding and protecting Els until I returned to my race.

Because it is not unlikely that Yume will have any information in her ear in any way.

At that time, "Why didn't you tell me about Els-chan!?"'I wanted to avoid being asked.

I didn't want to give Yume a strange sense of distrust.

That's why I told my brother Els about the current situation from my mouth.

After a few tens of seconds, Yume makes a smile and responds.

All right. Then let's go visit Els together when she's feeling better.

”... yes, of course, I promise.”

Even though Yume realized that there was some reason, she dared to accept it without saying anything.

"It was the result of Yume putting up with it in a certain way..."

It's much better than telling her the status quo, but it doesn't change when she is spoiled.

(If I had discovered Els-chan earlier, she wouldn't have been altered by a monster...No, if I could have escaped the [Naraka] earlier, I could have saved my family, the village and a lot of people.....)

Sitting next to Els-chan whose time had stopped, she looked back at her conversation with Yume, and she thought, "If only I had stood around better in the past."

The past cannot be changed anymore, and at that time, in order to get out of the bottom layer of [Naraka], we cooperated with all of Mae.It was difficult to escape at that rate.

It's really a much bigger story now.

"...... Nee-chan, I'll come and see your face again"

You can't sit down forever immersed in sentimentality.

When I get out of my seat, I leave you alone in the room in Els, where time has stopped.

As soon as she leaves the room, May shows her face.

Really from the end of the corridor, with the expression "I have something I want to tell Lydia", I'm approaching at a speed that is not rude.

After I gave permission to the guard's ice heat, I approached May and asked him for the requirements.

If this was an urgent requirement, you might have omitted the fairy maids' footsteps and told me straightforwardly.

At a time when they are not using those means, it is understandable that this is not some kind of urgent news.

I still ask her in a slightly sinking voice. [M]

Mae, what's going on?

Yes, I just heard back from Her Majesty Queen Lilith via Yume (fake), who serves as the royal castle of the Race Kingdom.

"From Yume, who made it with a double shadow?"

I make predictions about the contact details in my brain. [M]

After clearing up the demon kingdom problem, there was no need to hurry.

Is it a request for rescue, assistance, or manpower that occurs within the Race Kingdom, even in natural disasters?

But May's report misses my expectations.

"I would like to hold the [Race Kingdom Queen Inauguration Ceremony] soon due to Her Majesty Queen Lilith's plan."Master Wright, Ellie, the [Witch of the Great Tower], has asked about our plans. "

Race Kingdom Queen Inauguration Ceremony?

I didn't expect to hear anything unexpected, so I repeated Mae's words.

Often silent, I guessed Lilith's intentions.

"--Do you intend to hold a ceremony to completely break Lilith's brother's heart?"Certainly, the demon kingdom problem has been cleared up, and the race kingdom's internal control is almost complete. Isn't this a good time to thwart the consciousness of those who are in the way? "

May nods to my words. [M]

... once the ceremony is over, Lilith's status will surely be more certain.

I nodded to May and instructed her to check on me and Ellie's plans for her attendance.
