Going Around
The moon is shining high in the sky.
"Sedona, here!"
I hear a familiar voice
"Sylvie! Long time no see"
Next to Sylvie are Quies and Druknen.
"Haa… Sedona hasn’t changed at all, has it?"
"It can't be helped. She's a dragon."
The conversation between Quies and Druknen is funny and makes me smile
"Why are you smiling?"
"I can't help it. The way you guys speak is the same as when you were a child."
Druknen looks just like a strong knight.
And I can't help but smile, because he's the same as he was when he was a child.
"It's all right, since we're the only four here."
"Where are the three?"
"They're on their way. They're busy, too."
While I was gone.
Gudurihan becomes a teacher
Hibarieri becomes a director of an orphanage
Ittenhardt became the guild governor.
"Hibari is doing a great job with the children. He looks so happy."
"Everyone is doing their best"
"Sedona and the others worked hard, didn't they?"
I'm just following Father's lead.
"What about sensei?"
"He's sleeping soundly. I think he's tired after all."
"You're the reason for that, aren't you?"
"I've only done it four times, you know?"
"It's more than enough"
Is that so?
If Father felt like it, I could easily pass out
"Sorry I made you wait"
"Sedona!"
"It's so exciting to see the seven of us together again."
All three of them are now taller than I am.
And I'm not saying it out loud, but there are more wrinkles on them, too.
----------
We all watched the moon and drank for a while.
It's a weak, undistilled liquor.
Even so, I'm glad, it's been a while since I've had a drink.
"Now, then... Sedona."
Quies' expression changed
He was drunk, but he was still acting like a king.
"Can you call Ginkei-dono for me?"
"It's fine. Can you hear me, Ginkei?"
As soon as I did that, Ginkei appeared next to me
"I'm here"
Everyone seemed to wonder when they saw Ginkei
"Was this in the report?"
Quies responds to Druknen's words
"Yes, I'm sorry, but I'd like to introduce you to our guest."
With those words, someone appeared from the corner of the room.
"Illusion magic?"
"A very rare kind of magic. You've never seen it before, have you?"
It was a woman we knew well.
"Queen Tenrei! Huh? Where's Father?"
"He's still sleeping. He's very tired. Well, I did tire him out."
Saying this, Queen Tenrei licked her lips, which was a little scary.
Then Queen Tenrei looked at Ginkei.
"You are Ginkei, right?"
"Yes"
"What do you exist for?"
"To fulfill Master Sedona's wishes."
"Hmm... Then what if Sedona wants Wince dead because she wants to monopolize Shiro?"
"I will kill her without hesitation."
"What are you talking about!"
That's not gonna happen.
I love Mother
"It's an example. Don't be so angry, Sedona Edgeworth."
"But you shouldn't..."
She ignores my words and keeps talking
"You would turn against everything for Sedona?"
"That's right"
"You would even turn against Sedona?"
"If it's for Master's sake."
"Hmm... Then you should talk here."
"Talk, what?"
"You're hiding something, aren't you? And hiding it from Sedona."
Something I don't know, Queen Tenrei said.
"………"
"Silence is the same as admitting it, right?"
"Ginkei. Speak."
"I understand."
Ginkei easily told me what he was hiding at my command.
That is the original function of type C
"Absolute command authority over elves?"
"Brainwashing, you might say."
Type C is a counter to dragons.
It's not just about performance.
It is a function that makes them the secret weapon to dragons
It was also a hostage to protect the people of Elfriade from the dragon's attacks.
"I am convinced that you are all descendants of elves."
"We are? And Sedona?"
"Master is also a life created by the synthetic dragon Edgeworth. She is undoubtedly of Elvish blood."
"Is that what you've been hiding?"
"If it were known, it could be used in any way. Does Master want Shiro to become a political tool?"
"No"
"So I have kept it a secret. Shiro himself would not know about it."
According to Ginkei
If he undergoes proper maintenance, all of Father's functions will be restored.
In that case, his memory will be initialized.
"What is initialization?"
"He'll forget everything."
"Denied"
"I understand."
Quies sighs
"It's a relief that the content wasn't that serious."
"Yeah, we can keep it to ourselves."
Everyone was smiling again.
Then Sylvie made a suggestion.
"Hey, why don't we let sensei rest for a while?"
They've managed somehow without Father for 10 years
They'll have to manage without him from now on.
They should try not to depend on him.
"Of course."
"I don't want to push him too hard in the first place."
"I think it's Sensei Wince who's forcing him the most."
I mean, in a night hustle kind of way.
"Isn't there a nice place to go to?"
"Isn't it fine in the Edgeworth territory?"
"It looks like he'll be busy over there."
"……It's possible."
Quies seems to have come up with it
"It’s rich in nature and there are no bandits. Locomotives are also used for transportation. Or rather, it's on the road."
"Where?"
"Kadaza"
It was a place I had never heard of.
