Chapter 1497 - Seeking More Possibilities of Baby Castellas ②

Chapter 1497 - Seeking More Possibilities of Baby Castellas ②

After listening to the opinions at Lillywood-san’s place, we teleported to a place full of rocky mountains…… a place that looked familiar to me. If I’m not mistaken, this should be the mountainous area where Magnawell-san lives, in the Southern Demon Realm, around the place where I visited before.

That being the case, did we come here to talk to Magnawell-san next? No, but I have a feeling that Magnawell-san doesn’t eat either……

As I was thinking about this, I saw a familiar winged dragon standing upright with its arms crossed on top of a steep rocky mountain in front of me. It’s Frea-san…… Heck, aren’t you being a bit too cool!? A dragon standing with its arms crossed on top of a rocky mountain is usually cool, and even though Frea-san herself was concerned about her size, to be honest, I think that her 5m length is just the right size to look at the overall surroundings and feel large.

While I had such thoughts in mind, Frea-san noticed us and leapt from the top of the rocky mountain, and after landing in the midst of Humanization, she got down on one knee and gave a polite bow.

[If it isn’t Kuromueina-sama, welcome to our abode. My comrade too, I welcome your arrival.]

[Hello, Frea-san.]

[Sorry for the sudden visit, Nidzveld-chan.]

After giving a respectful greeting to Kuro, Frea-san stood up and lightly smiled at me. Frea-san has a serious personality, so she treats Kuro, one of the Six Kings, quite politely, but other than the respect she shows for someone of greater standing, I could somehow feel from the atmosphere around her that she respects Kuro.

[No, please don’t worry about it. What can we do for you today?]

[I thought of visiting Magnawell, but before we went there, I thought of visiting Nidzveld-chan. Since we’re at it, why don’t I accompany you for “the usual”?]

[……You have my heartfelt gratitude. Well then….. “Please lend me one hand for the moment”.]

[Alright, come, come. Ah, just in case, I’ll deploy Defensive Magic on you, Kaito-kun.]

[Eh? Ahh, wait, what in the world……]

Upon hearing the words Kuro said with a smile, Frea-san looked happy…… and yet, with a somewhat ferocious beast-like expression on her face, she transformed into her dragon form and flew up into the sky.

And when Frea-san spread her wings in the sky above, huge threefold crimson rings in the sky, and a tremendous amount of magic power converges and the sky shines red…… Doesn’t this feel dangerous? The smile on Kuro’s face looked like she was pretty relaxed, but doesn’t that completely look like Frea-san’s about to unleash a special move? She said she deployed Defensive Magic, but scary things are still scary……

As I was thinking that, the huge threefold rings converges and with a tremendous radiance, they moved to Frea-san’s mouth.

(————-Promediment.)

(T/N: Heavenly Flames of Ruination: Promediment. Yes, Author did write Promediment there, but I’m not sure if that really was what he intends to write. Prolly Prominence or something.)

And the moment Frea-san roared, the name of the technique spoken in magic wavelengths through my Sympathy Magic audible to my ears…… Light fell from the sky…… which then immediately disappeared.

I didn’t know what had happened, but when I looked at Kuro, I saw that her hand was clenched and she was gently smiling.

[Unnn, unnn. It was more powerful than before.]

[……As expected, it is still not possible to make Kuromueina-sama use both hands huh…… However, it’s a pleasure to know how high the wall is again. Thank you for accompanying me.]

It’s just a guess, but Kuro extinguished that dangerous flash of light that Frea-san unleashed just by lightly clenching her hand. When I saw Frea-san, who returned to her human form and deeply thanking her, it might be that Kuro sometimes lets her shoot her strongest attack at her like this. The magic power used for that thing felt as if if it hits the ground, the world would seriously disappear…… Well, even so, making it so that such an attack won’t reach the ground shows how awesome Kuro, one of the Six Kings, is huh……

[Ahh, that’s right. While we’re at it, I’ll also ask Nidzveld-chan.]

[Yes? What is it?]

Thereupon, Kuro explained the circumstances with a bright smile. After listening to her story, for some reason, Frea-san looked like she was overcome with emotion…… Eh? Why?

[……Never satisfied with the status quo, always seeking to go higher. I am always impressed by Kuromueina-sama, who held such fiery ambitions even though you already stand on such a high level.]

[Baby castellas have infinite possibilities after all.]

[I see, never stopping even before the infinite possibilities and always aiming higher, as expected of Kuromueina-sama.]

……Ah, I see, Frea-san is someone who loved improvement after all. Even if it’s just for baby castellas, seeing Kuro’s constant attempts to improve it must be worthy of respect for Frea-san. That’s why she looked at Kuro in a very respectful way huh……

[I don’t know if I can help you, but when I get stuck in my training, I find that reviewing the basics will help me find hints to move forward. It’s wonderful that Kuromueina-sama has created many innovative articles, but that may be why it’s good to think about it simply.]

[I see, it’s true that when I think about something new, I would tend to seek something that has never existed before, and the process tends to be complicated. I suppose thinking about it simply can be important too huh.]

For the time being, after we got some opinions from Frea-san, we now headed to Magnawell-san’s place.

<Afterword>

~ ~ Stomachache Warriors ~ ~

① Chronois

The Stomachache Warrior of the God Realm, whose stomachache mainly comes from Fate’s slacking off and Shiro’s unreasonableness. However, since the transition to the Afterstory, Fate has come to take her work more seriously to some extent, and Shiro has also grown mentally, so the chances of her stomachaches have decreased.

② Lillywood

The Stomachache Warrior of the Demon Realm, whose stomachache mainly comes from the other members of the Six Kings, being the person with common sense acting as the stopper for them. However, as Isis has grown mentally under the influence of Kaito, her stomachaches have lessened in the Afterstory.

③ Mizuhara Kaori

The Rising Supernova of the Stomachache Society, whose stomachache mainly comes from her kouhai, Kaito. Her standing in the society is still relatively unstable as she sometimes raises the Stomachache Flags and sometimes avoids them, but as a commoner-role in the novel, we can expect more stomachaches in the future.

④ Lilia

The Strongest Stomachache Warrior since the dawn of time. She draws all flags like a black hole, possessing overwhelming Stomachache Power that the other three Stomachache Warriors combined can’t even match. The number of stomach medicines she had consumed is on another dimension. Her stomachache is at a level that even Earth God, who is relentless with the inhabitants of the other world, pities her, and even though the other Stomachache Warriors from the main story are more or less relieved from their stomachaches, Lilia was still afflicted with stomachaches even in the Afterstory, and there’s no sign of it abating at all. Even after extensive Flag retrievals, it’s scary how there are still other Stomachache Flags that stand tall around her, such as those related to Nebula.
