Eternal Adventurer (WN): Chapter 664

 

A World Without Answers



A report came in that the repairs to Ain's ship were completed.


In short, we have exhausted all the data we want.


In that case, it would be best to have Ain and the others quickly return to space and ask the director of Elfriade to come down.


That's why 15 days have passed since we talked about the Northern Disaster Theory.



"Hurry up for the final check!"


"Final confirmation of checklist!"


"Don't overlook even one loose screw!"



Preparations are being made for the moment of parting


I'm an outsider, so I'm observing from a distance.



"Original"



Ain sits next to me while calling out to me.



"Are you sure you don't want to check it?"


"My sisters are checking it, because they all know better how to handle a ship."


"I see."



Since we don't have anything to talk about, we both drink instant tea.


It was Ain who brought it out.



"There are five main continents on the ground."


"Yeah…"



Speaking of details, there are islands and the deep world.


Well, I guess that's not what Ain wants to say.



"For people, their own good is good. Didn't you say that?"


"That’s what I said, although the nuances are a little different."


"Is it an absolute good if it benefits everyone?"


"There's no such thing. But I wish if it were."


"Individuals seek profit, and when their interests align, they join forces, and when it grows, it becomes an organization.''



Yes, that's what a country is.



"We and the originals fought because it wasn't in either of our interests. But I think it's different now."


"Then, will we get along and join hands?"



Ain shakes his head



"That's impossible. I think our interests are temporary. But there's no reason to fight right now, so I won't fight, and there's no need for it."



Someday we'll definitely kill each other


I don't know when it is



"Even if we return to our home planet and you fly far away, I have a feeling that someday we'll end up fighting each other."


"I wonder when it is..."



There is no answer


There's no way I'll know what's going on that far.



"But isn’t that common history?"



Enemy or ally


If history continues for a long time, we will help and kill each other.



"I don't have an answer, but I'll keep going."


"If the answer was that easy, there would be no conflict between us, the world, and even the universe."


"I agree…"



Siren sounds


Looks like the final check has been completed



"It's time."


"Yeah, I'll go. Ah..."


"What's up?"


"Does the original have children?"


"I'm not human, so I can't have children."


"I see. I have a wife too."


"At that age?"


"It doesn't matter how old you are. The child should have been born while I was on the ground."



I see


Ain and I have the same core but different bodies...


That's enviable



"If possible, could I come and show my child and wife the ground?"


"There is no problem."


"I see, then I'll bring them once the formalities are completed."



We have different ways of thinking, ages, and bodies, but


Well, there was one thing that was the same.



"I hope this peace lasts for as long as possible."



I wholeheartedly agree with Ain's words.
