Irony-2

Irony-2

Type Diat

Originally, it was a familiar with the sage’s biological magic created to increase the understanding of all living things and respond to various tactics and tactics.

Diart, which has been endowed with various adaptability as a single individual by studying the principles and origins of various lives,

“…Was worth digging out.”

It could also be classified as a chimera.

“…That’s… What…”

Even the party members looked shocked. At least, the only ones that kept their expressions were Ain and Orb.

“…Ahin’s data is the base… Leo’s mother…”

“Yes, my mother passed away… She has been missing for several years.”

That was before Leonardo himself joined Reinhardt. Before Leonardo became a mercenary, he did this by recovering the bodies of his parents who had disappeared.

“…The causal relationship is strange.”

At first, I thought he used the corpse of his parent, Ren, to disrupt his mind.

Playing with people like that was a characteristic of Necromancers, and it was also Mary Lamia’s specialty.

“…But if that’s the case, it’s common to go out with the intention of disrupting it from the start.”

But Mary Lamia didn’t. She was rather the opposite. As she deliberately put on her mask, she sought to cover the faces of the beings.

“…Does that mean that the vampires didn’t know about your relationship with the corpse?”

“…This is still speculation. We need more clues.”

Leonardo also lacked information about Ren. She might have been hidden by the vampires for some reason…

“…I can’t rule out the possibility that my mother is in the dark.”

At that one word, the atmosphere froze. Nobody else, but Leonardo, the son himself, was directly suspicious of his parents, so it was difficult for everyone to bring up the words.

“Anyway, it would be impossible to go early. As a result of Ain’s scent tracking, the same corpse was found in this area…”

At that moment, Leonardo’s words stopped slowly. Thinking was dulled for a moment by the sight before his eyes.

It wasn’t unbelievable, but Leo couldn’t react to the sudden phenomenon in the current situation.

“Ain…?”

“…Yes…Yes?”

Ain was crying.

Ain, who would normally not show any emotion on his face, was crying.

Tears flowed from my eyes like beads, falling down like raindrops on the window. It was repeated over and over again, and Ahin was crying silently.

As if she wasn’t used to crying, she kept her mouth open and shed tears incessantly.

“Ah…Ina…!”

“…Sorry…Sorry…Ah…! Why are you doing this… I don’t know…!”

Ain quickly wiped his eyes. But the more she wiped her tears, the more they came out.

“…Cough… It’s okay…! I will stop this act immediately…!”

“…It’s okay…! Ahh…! Therefore…!”

Leonardo and Ariaspil hurriedly ran to Ain. So did others. Ain tried to stop the tears somehow, but the emotions that had just leaked out were uncontrollable.

Soon, the situation spread out of control.

“…Ugh…”

Leonardo also began to have Ajin’s thoughts. Ordinary familiars have low intelligence, so they cannot send high-level thoughts or emotions, but they are not subhumans.

As Leo’s emotions flowed to Ain at the time of the runaway, Ain’s emotions flowed back to Leo this time.

“Leo!”

“It’s okay…”

Still, there was no big crowd. Although Leonardo’s own mental strength was strong, Ajin’s feelings became acceptable to Leonardo as well.

“…Ah…Burge…! Sorry…!!”

Ain’s cries grew stronger. It wasn’t intentional, but this caused a runaway of emotions.

“…Ainah!! Don’t turn the power off…!”

“…Ugh…”

Leo’s words were too late. Eventually, Ain turned off his power. Like a bird whose wings had been cut off, Ain picked and fell to the ground.

“…There doesn’t seem to be any external problems.”

Eileen said as she finished examining Jin Ain, who was lying on the bed in her hospital room.

Eileen was well versed in medical magic, and at the same time, she was well versed in ministry magic, so she was able to perform a certain amount of examinations.

In the current situation, I was worried that information about Ain would leak out, so I couldn’t call a healer or professional magician hastily.

“…The problem is probably that I suddenly felt strong feelings…”

Unlike other times, Rios was pointing out the current problem with a serious expression.

In the past, there was a time when I had a problem with Ain because I felt a sudden strong emotion.

At the time, I was just nervous before the defense, but I had never seen anyone cry so passionately.

“…How did you solve it then?”

“…Rather than solving it, it came naturally after talking with Leo.”

Like a child with nothing else.

“…Then I…”

“No. That doesn’t sound good. Senior.”

The moment Leo was about to step out, Orb stopped his senior. It was because there was a possibility that the situation would get worse if I left now.

“…I think what the senior said earlier had a big impact.”

“…No way… Because of what you said earlier…”

[A replica of Ren was created with Ain’s data.]

That story was the factor that triggered Ain’s emotions.

“…But that’s…”

Leonardo thought it would be all right.

“It’s not Ain’s fault…”

It was because I said it on the premise that it wasn’t Ain’s fault. The cause of this situation was the black magician and the vampire who abused the data.

I didn’t mean to say it with the intention of rebuking you.

I thought Ain would know that too.

“…That’s true, but it’s been about a year since Ain-nim woke up.”

And the period of understanding emotions will be shorter.

“…I think it would be best to leave Ain alone for now.”

Unfortunately, this was a problem that couldn’t be helped because it was Leonardo. Now

“…Anyway, it’s late now, so I have to go back. All the important main points have been delivered, and time will solve it.”

Eileen stood up and said in a dry tone. In fact, the information about the snitch mentioned earlier was a shocking issue to Eileen as well.

As for the data on Ain, Temperius was also inside, because there were doubts and concerns that Temperius might have an infiltrator inside.

“…But…”

“The longer you are here, the more likely you are to be suspicious of outsiders. Ain’s problem is important, but isn’t it the biggest problem that snitches notice?”

Eileen’s words were harsh, but Eileen’s words were justified. The longer the hospital visit, the more doubts about Leonardo’s condition will grow, and if so, the reason for faking illness will be revealed.

“…Looks like someone who won’t bleed even if stabbed.”

Rios looked at Eileen and sold it. But she had no room to argue. It was because Rios was also constantly conscious of the snitch.

So, the party had no choice but to go to their respective seats first.

***

The information of the time the wise man created me only emerges as a record.

Should I say the difference between memory and experience?

At the time, I was me, but I didn’t have the sense that I was me.

As usual, people dream by sleeping.

To me, the time stored in an iron barrel feels like an instant.

Of course, the time was 301 years 40 days 5 hours 31 minutes 22 seconds, so I definitely measured it.

People always ask.

Aren’t you angry at that situation?

But I am not angry with the wise man.

Thanks to a simple reason without considering multiple causes and effects.

I don’t know how to get angry.

I know what the black of anger is, but I don’t know how to feel it.

I heard that that’s why it was able to last 300 years.

But for some reason now.

You seem angry.

Not anyone else…

For me.

“…Uh…Um…”

When Ain opened his eyes, what he saw was the familiar moonlight coming down through an unfamiliar window.

Ain grabbed the blanket and looked around. This was in the room that Leonardo used as his hospital room after pretending to have collapsed.

‘…Just before I…’

Eventually, in Ain’s mind, the rudeness he had been committing a few hours ago came to mind.

Normally, even when Leonardo told me to feel the emotion, I couldn’t show a single smile, but at that time he was busy bursting into tears and lost his mind in excitement.

‘…Such a nuisance…’

Ain’s expression grew darker. She always thought that she was being taken care of by Leo, but now she has caused more irrational damage than that.

Her head is heavy and her emotions continue to rise.

A familiar like this isn’t worth it at all…

“Are you awake? Ahh?”

Ain was surprised and quickly turned her head to look at her sideways. She had reactions and facial expressions that she would not normally do, but now that her emotions have become sensitive, she has no choice but to be sensitive to even one such action.

“…Oh…Are you okay? Are you really surprised?”

It was Aria.

Others waited in their respective rooms for Ain to wake up, but Ariasviel begged to take care of Ain herself and remained in this hospital room until dawn.

Sitting in her chair, she didn’t sleep until her son woke up.

“…Ah…Sorry.”

“No. It’s nothing to apologize for.”

Arya looked at Ain and touched her hand. Her child’s hand was the same temperature as usual, but her body temperature felt cold that day.

“…But… Just before… I…”

Ain remembers. She couldn’t objectively hear and judge her faults, so she got excited.

Because of that, she continued to shed tears.

“…That’s nothing to apologize for either.”

“No… That was… Obviously my mistake.”

Ain kept her head down and couldn’t meet her aria’s eyes. Aria felt the illusion that she was seeing herself with her little Leo.

“…Everyone is bound to cry. Both me and Leo are crybabies more than I thought.”

Arya said as she stroked the little girl.

But Ain shook her head and shook her Aria’s hand away.

“…That’s not a problem.”

And what came out was a grim conclusion.

“… My… Existence, Ren-sama, who was originally her father’s mother, came to use it as a vampire’s main tool. Originally… There was no future like this…”

Aria finally found out.

“My father did everything he could for me… but I became a factor in creating a chimera, just as the people who spoke against me said.”

How did Ain feel when he was by Leo’s side?

“…If I hadn’t been unsealed… This would… I’m sure…”

She is Ain, she is unaware of how much she has suffered her wounds.

And

“…As expected.”

How alike these fathers and daughters are.

“…Yes…?”

“Leo and Ahin look alike. Maybe it’s because we are a family.”

Ain shook her head at those words.

“…That’s not true. Unlike her former father, she is not competent…”

“No, Ahin is competent enough.”

At last, Aria was a warm objection.

“Even though Ain knew Leo’s secret, he kept it well. And when it was appropriate, she confided in Lumine Saint-sama.”

Aria remembers. When she was drowning in guilt, Ain’s efforts lifted her up.

“…But that’s… I told my own secret… It was the saint who revealed the secret…”

“Thanks to that, however, when the vampire crisis broke out with Leonardo, she was able to react quickly.”

She might not have been quick to agree with Leo’s judgment if she hadn’t known her secret.

“And if she hadn’t had Ain, she wouldn’t have been able to fly fast and catch the bad guys. Thanks to her, she might have been able to find clues about Leo’s mother.”

“…Maybe so…But that’s the result…”

“Isn’t Ahin blaming himself because it’s a result theory?”

Before long, Arya lightly blew honey chestnuts on her child’s head.

She wasn’t particularly ill, but thanks to her shock, she was able to see her aria’s face.

When we met each other’s eyes, there were no more tears coming out of our eyes. I don’t even know why.

“To me, both Ain and Leo seem mean to themselves. He chews on his mistakes every day, but he takes the good things for granted.”

“…But I did a lot of things wrong… And the things I did right…”

Eventually, Ain stopped talking.

“Did you see it?”

Because what I’m doing now is as Arya said.

“…Yes…”

“I think it is a wonderful and good thing that Ain tries to do well every time. But I don’t want you to think that you’re the wrong person just because things are wrong.”

“…I… A person… No…”

Aria hugged Ain tightly. The touch of her skin and the warmth of her body came and went to her mother and daughter.

“Even so, she is my daughter. Even if I didn’t give birth to them myself, they are my precious family.”

At the same time as a warm feeling spread, the sun rose over the night sky.

But even the warmth of the sunlight would not exceed the warmth of those two mothers and daughters.

“…Thank you…”

Seeing her mother, Ain expressed her gratitude.
