Chapter 134 – Tetra’s Nightview
What crossed my mind afterward was us, the holder of Mortal Sin skill. If what she said is true, then he cannot possibly tolerate us who own skills that violate the world’s rule.
When I told Eris what I thought, she laughed at me.
But that’s all she told me. She didn’t tell of what happened between them in the past. Perhaps it’s something she doesn’t want to tell to another. At least I could understand that much.
For a while, we watched the nightview together atop the hill.
[Forgive me… Fate.]
[No need to apologize. By all means, even I have something that I can’t tell to others.]
[Ahahaha, you’re right. You are also keeping a secret from Roxy. Does she know about your condition?]
[Not yet… I haven’t told her. Thinking about it will eventually make me bald..]
But Roxy herself never asked me about it.
[That is so like her. You should be grateful that such a kind girl is willing to be with you despite all the odds.]
[I always feel that way, even without you telling me to.]
[In that case, you should start responding to her feelings. Since your time is limited, it becomes even more important now.]
[….that is]
[She even willingly abandoned her position as a Holy Knight to accompany you. Why? Do I have to make it more obvious to you?]
Eris then looked away from me. Her eyes were not focused on the sky, as if she was looking at something that is very far in the distance.
As I gazed at the night sky, my mind wandered, thinking about Roxy.
[I love her.]
Hearing that, Eris turned to me and smile.
[You finally said it. You should’ve told it to Roxy, not me though. Well, let’s just treat that as you doing a rehearsal with me!]
[Again with the unreasonableness…]
[Ahahaha! Why of course, I am a Queen after all. If by any chance you messed up when you confess to Roxy, then feel free to come to me. I will comfort you.]
[Oii, how could you use your power at such a time!]
[Eee, would you look at that. I have now confirmed that you have resolved yourself. If you were fascinated by me just now, then you’d be disqualified. My man has finally grown up]
[What… That’s messed up]
[Because I am a Queen. Behold, my selfish self]
[Good grief, what a troublesome Queen.]
[Let’s return to the inn]
[…..]
As I left Eris alone up on the hill, Greed talked to me via 《Mind Reading》.
『Are you sure with leaving her alone like that?』
[Even if I stayed there, I will only ended up feeling awkward.]
『Hahaha, have you finally decided to use that brain of yours? Since when you’ve grown up?』
[Stop acting so high and mighty like that!]
Greed who usually mock me, suddenly spoke quietly.
『You are really going to fight your dad, aren’t you?』
[Yeah… Dad appears to be a member of a certain organization called the Templar Knights. Did Greed know about this already?]
『Reason being?』
[I simply thought so. Greed has always been full of secrets.]
『So you realized? Fate still ended up here even when I didn’t tell you anything. You should be proud of yourself for that.』
Moreover, it’s a family problem between parent and the child.
Dad told me not to follow him. But I’m no longer a kid.
[I can decide for myself.]
『Well said. Then all you have to do is go to Hauzen. And don’t forget to train. If I mock you, you already know why.』
[That Absolute zero… I must think up something to contend against it.]
Because once I get hit by his attack, then I won’t be able to move my hands nor my legs.
[I’ll be in your care again today.]
『Aren’t you motivated! About that, you’d better talk to Luna. She’s always been more proficient in terms of power management.』
[Luna has been talking a lot more often recently.]
『She was originally a talkative girl. It’s good that she has somewhat recover.』
[But Greed rarely talk to her. I wonder why?]
『Ther, there are various reasons for that!』
[Fu~hnn…]
I’m curious!
[Hey, tell me about it then.]
『No idea. Just think whatever you like!』
[Why do you act so strange all of a sudden, Greed?]
『This me does not care anymore. Does not care!』
[In that case, I’ll just ask Luna]
『Oi! Waitaminute!』
[As you said, she often talks to me lately. I need to only ask her. I think she’ll surely give me an answer.]
[Yosh, it’s been decided then.]
『Yosh, no other choice but to shut Fate up right here, ey?』
[Oi!]
[Nn?]
What is this… Soft feeling in my hand? Certainly not the bed.
[Aaaahhh…]
[Where are you touching!]
[Why are you hiding yourself under the blanket?]
[Because I’ve waited and waited, but you didn’t come… Until I got sleepy.]
[You could’ve slept in your own room.]
[I know that, but I just have to do this!]
[Quickly….quickly… I can’t stand it anymore!]
[I understand, but calm down! It’s past midnight already]
[I’ve been waiting up until midnight! Well then, I’m digging in!]
[Please wait. Guha!]
[Oi, calm down there…]
[Leave the rest to me, please take some rest and relax.]
