369 – Side Story 2. In a Sea
[March 31, Year 100 of the Imperial Calendar, somewhere in the southern part of the Kingdom of Spain.]
Hwiiing.
The wind blows.
A wind mixed with the unique salty smell of the sea and a little bit of sand comes through the cracks in the glass window and brushes my face.
“…”
In front of you, you see a large plate of magic stones.
The same width as the Gibraltar family tree displayed in the study of the Earl of Gibraltar.
Or, a width similar to that of the continental map placed in the study of the Marquis de Caroline.
The magic stone plate, which is wide enough to encompass an entire room on the left and right, is divided into dozens of rectangles, and various scenes are being played there.
Gibraltar. Gorge. Lift. Barcelona. Seville. Sayrene. Toledo. Orosol. Morgania. Lember Gunther. Roland. And many other areas.
Even if you just look at the words written in imperial language in small letters below each magic stone, you can see that they are mostly familiar words.
And in the magic stone tablet where each word is attached, events happening in that area pass by scene by scene.
It looks like someone made it to monitor the entire Nostrum.
In an image that is like copying the view of a specific object, familiar faces are walking around, each taking steps to lead the new world.
Click.
Gibraltar – Rotate the image to Caroline Castle.
Crimson Gibraltar.
Spending time strolling around Castle Caroline with a white-haired, red-eyed maid who looks suspiciously similar to Charlotte Gibraltar.
Carmen Morgania.
She follows behind them, but soon Crimson Gibraltar reaches out with one of her hands behind her and walks in front of her, holding her hand and standing next to her.
Click.
Return the image to Gibraltar-Rift Territory.
Mente Lift.
They are shouting and giving instructions to those holding shovels and pickaxes, while at the same time doing their best to protect someone.
Naria Jabes Spain.
Wearing a white uniform like the one worn by kings rather than a dress, he is giving a speech to the Spanish people who came to the canyon, pointing to the previously developed canyon and saying, ‘We will develop the canyon and develop Spain.’
Hex Romana.
While talking with the staff behind her, she took out a vial containing Caroline and poured it into her mouth in one go, rubbing her dark circles with her hands.
Click.
The former County of Seirene, now widely known as the Autonomous Territory of Aperia, Kingdom of Spain.
Erwin Aiferia.
Dressed in cool attire, he is giving instructions to numerous imperial people moving towards the collapsed port. He then points to the airships flying in the sky and gives various instructions.
Platinum Sutra Aperia.
He was muttering something while looking at the elves who had infiltrated the Aiferian Dominion. The gaze he was momentarily directed ‘this way’.
It seems like they are saying, ‘Aren’t you curious about the history of the continent?’
Click.
Turn the screen.
At Orosol Academy, a man who could easily be considered a young man is kneeling in front of someone wearing a familiar suit.
Noir Gibraltar.
He is kneeling on one knee, holding out a ring that has been prepared for some time and bowing his head.
Wednesday.
I covered my mouth with both hands in front of Noir, not knowing what to do, and was aware of my surroundings. Is it because of the secretary uniform she is wearing, or because she was publicly proposed to in the Hall of the Sun, the main auditorium of Orosol Academy?
Click.
Turn the screen.
Likewise, it is Orosol Academy, but near the quiet dormitory building rather than the loud auditorium.
Lettar Gibraltar.
The 14-year-old girl, dressed in her academy uniform, is doing her best in her training, stabbing the air with her rapier. The way she struck the right spot against the scarecrow clearly seemed like someone who inherited Gibraltar’s blood in her.
Ethan Cesar.
She claps her hands next to Lettar, hands him her handkerchief, and bows politely. She was a model of a butler and a knight comparable to anyone else, but she shuddered when she saw the part where Lettar had intensively drilled a hole in the humanoid scarecrow’s body.
And the girls with colorful hair huddled together, looking at Letard’s water lilies through the window.
Daughter-
“What are you looking at like that?”
Before I can even turn the screen, white hair blocks my view, as if blocking my view.
All you see is a beautiful face, a playful expression, and a white shirt.
“I was looking at the world.”
“The world?”
“Yes.”
In front of me.
“Astacia, a world without you and me.”
Astasia von Tersian – Now I just have a woman named Astasia sit next to me and point to the wide screen.
“What Habsburg von Tersian was best at was none other than information warfare. He watched the world by installing such ‘real-time video relay magic tools’ on numerous mobile devices such as magic automatic ships, magic bikes, and trains. “
“Yes. Because of that, you had to act a lot in front of people.”
“I don’t think it had much meaning.”
Should I call him clairvoyant?
Or should we say it is a control device to monitor the world.
“The Habsburg Emperor tried to use this device to control the continent. So that no one who opposed his rule would appear anywhere. Even if they did appear, he would eliminate them in the most beneficial way at the most certain time he wanted. So that we can.”
“In the sky?”
“From a place where you can look down on everyone.”
This device was not in the flying imperial palace.
If it had been brought up to the flying imperial palace, it would probably have been destroyed along with Toledo.
It was in the imperial palace of the Thersian Empire.
Now, it has been looted, arson has occurred, and there is no one guarding it, so it is placed somewhere in the abandoned imperial palace of Thersian, where bandits are running around and aiming muskets at each other, trying to salvage every single jewel. . Left in the palace.
It’s as if a being like me had prepared this so that it could be easily found.
“Grey.”
Astasia is calling me.
“I think Sir Robert is looking for it.”
“…”
Click.
Turn the screen to Barcelona.
Manipulate the magic stone and listen carefully to what is being said.
[Young master. I know you’re watching. If you know, if you are interested in handling world affairs-]
“It’s useless talking to yourself. It’s just complaining.”
I moved the magic control device and turned off the entire screen.
“I think Sir Robert is desperately looking for it?”
“You’ll take care of it. If it’s really an emergency, you won’t complain like that.”
Hwiiing.
Slowly, we are getting closer to our destination.
The warm spring breeze unique to the south, different from the scent of blood that spreads throughout the continent, stimulates the nose along with the scent of the sea.
“We just have to enjoy the happy ending we got.”
“Is it us?”
The coast is visible.
A little distance away from the continent, an island can be seen.
“Didn’t Gray work hard on his own?”
“In living for this happy ending, Astacia has contributed the most. That’s right, we are.”
“Me? What did I contribute?”
“That’s right.”
Wow.
The flying magic stone’s engine gradually lowers its power, and the airship slowly descends toward the island.
“You’ve always loved me.”
“Is that a ball?”
“You always made sure I didn’t waver, so that’s your credit.”
“Hmm, you’re wrong?”
Astasia clings to me.
Then, she quietly unbuttons her shirt and sticks out her tongue.
“You did it,” Is a complete sentence.”
“Really?”
“…Hehe.”
Astasia whispers in my ear.
“I still love you, and I will continue to love you in the future.”
“…Well, I see.”
I hugged Astasia.
“Because a happy ending should last happily ever after.”
The airship landed on the island.
* * *
Shoot.
The waves wash the sand off her, and Astasia, whiter than her her white sand her her her her, walks around the sandy beach with her bare feet, wearing only her white shirt her her her her.
“Gray, here! Come quickly!”
“You don’t have to rush me like that. There’s no one on this island.”
A place a bit far from the continent.
A place that cannot be reached by boat due to reefs, whirlpools, kraken, etc.
My own resort that I knew about before returning, which can only be flown using an airship.
“So, what do you have to say?”
“Gray. When was your birthday?”
“It’s March 31st.”
Hehe…”
Astasia grins her eyes and stretches out her her object her, which she was holding tightly behind her back her, to her in front of her.
“Here, a gift!”
“…What is this?”
“Do you not know, or are you just pretending not to know?”
“I know, but I didn’t know this would pop up here.”
Astasia handed over her leash.
Even though it was stored somewhere precious, it was a leash that still showed traces of time having passed.
“This is the thing I gave you as a gift on the day you broke up with me, at that festival.”
“…Yes. It’s the necklace you dragged me around like a slave you just bought.”
How could I forget?
“Gray Gibraltar began to deceive the Emperor by saying he would also play slave for his granddaughter Astasia.”
“It’s not necessarily because of that!”
Astasia opened her leash and stretched it out towards her neck.
“How do you feel?”
“Is that my birthday present?”
“Yes! Fortunately, it fits perfectly!”
Astasia smiled and tilted her head back.
Astasia lifted her tiptoes and blinked her eyes, as if telling her to put the leash on herself.
“How do you feel?”
“…I have to get a birthday present, there’s no rule like that.”
“Yes?”
“Of course I get you as a birthday present, but this is mine.”
I took her leash from Astasia and put it around my neck myself.
“It’s a symbol that I am yours.”
“…”
“And you don’t have to have a leash to become each other’s slaves, right?”
I held Astasia’s hand and kissed the back of her hand.
“I am ready to do anything for you at any time.”
“…Really?”
“Yes. Anything.”
Truly, anything.
“Ugh… What should I do? I tried to use this to do what Gray wanted so much. Of course, I got caught~”
“…”
“I was trying to use this to find out what Gray likes by doing everything he was told to do, but it seems like I have no choice but to find out on my own…”
“It’s the opposite.”
I faced Astasia’s forehead.
“I will do whatever you ask me to do, so you can do as you wish.”
“…”
“Literally, anything.”
“…Then.”
Sabak.
“I’m giving you my baby as a birthday present, so can you tell me how we can make our love more intimate?”
Astasia climbs on top of my feet, along with the grinding sand.
“The love you so long for.”
“Astasia, isn’t that what you wanted?”
“Ehehe…”
Astasia narrowed one of her eyes and forcibly covered her mouth.
“Are you trying to get me to say that to a woman?”
“Of course not. But…”
“Just?”
“The beginning is, of course, as Astasia wants.”
“Buu…”
Astasia puffed out her cheeks, and then she sat back down and began to look around her.
“Then I have no choice…Ah, here it is.”
Soon she was down on her knees in the sand, smiling at me and blinking her eyes.
“… Told me that this is what men like the most.”
“…”
Astacia knelt down on her knees like the beast she was, clutching the sand beneath her with her hands.
“Is that what you wish, Astasia?”
“Should we try something else?”
“…”
I quietly approached Astasia.
“If you really want to confirm my love, I have no choice but to do so.”
“…Uh, that thing, it seems like it’s getting bigger and bigger…?”
Astasia blushed and swallowed her saliva, but I just kept her mouth shut and walked towards her and stood in front of her.
“I’ve said this many times since I was little, I love you.”
“Ah, yes, I love you too…”
“And this is proof that I love you.”
“…Sir, does it seem like love will continue to grow and grow?”
Astasia looks up at me and swallows her saliva.
“Astacia.”
I stroked her head and opened her mouth.
“My first time with you, every day I was born, will be remembered forever.”
After meeting Astasia, I was able to be reborn as the person I am now.
“I will love only you, both back in time and in the next life.”

So.
“From now on, let’s share adult love.”
