Chapter 380: The world tossed abou

“Fuuh…this time around it is the Great Lily? Just what’s happening?”

“Was that a secret ceremony of the church? I thought for sure that was just gossip . ”

“It is a lost secret ceremony of the church . It is almost correct to say it is just gossip . ”

“The records remained in the olden Elysion, huh . The church that moved to Limia obviously—”

“It was a lost technique since before they moved . The current church doesn’t even have historical records of it . ”

“In the Academy Town of Rotsgard there’s the most prominent library of the world . Then it would be normal to think that there was an old record of it sleeping there . ”

“It is a tradition of a long time ago after all . It is not even certain whether the church treasured it and passed it down . It wouldn’t be strange that it has been reproduced by a completely different line…”

“Impossible . It must obviously be them, right?”

“The Kuzunoha, huh . I would like them to bring back the Demonic Amber Kudzu, Maris Amvine, as well if possible . ”

“It is true that if both poles of the demon killer techniques were to be brought together, the situation of the war would turn around . The demons who showed the ability to even fight back against the Blessing of the Goddess must be reminded of their long past nightmare . ”

“But that man should have gone to a port town called Koran with a close aide of his, right?”

“Raidou himself had been confirmed to have been in the Academy -not with his female close aide, but together with the long haired man teaching the students . ”

““……””

“Ha! We are being made fools of thoroughly . ”

“Not good at all . We are simply being tossed about, and not a single person is able to get close to the true abilities of the Kuzunoha Company . ”

“It seems like it is not only Aion but all four major powers who are being beaten up completely . ”

“It is because the idiots of Aion are only doing unnecessary stuff that it ended up like this . ”

“…This isn’t the time to be arguing about that, right?”

“Even so, we can’t just not gauge them . It wouldn’t be an exaggeration to say that they are a threat to the world right after the demons . ”

“The Anti-Goddess Cult was basically dealt with thanks to them though?”

“Those guys will be popping up again after 100 years . Also, they may have brought harm to the world, but they haven’t changed the world once . ”

“Well, the Goddess is in good health after all . ”

“But we can’t have everyone stay in Tsige . Once the demons get warmed up, they will be moving annoyingly again no doubt . ”

“…You will suffer if you underestimate the demons, you know?”

“I agree . ”

“The Kuzunoha Company, the Rembrandt Company, and Tsige; what a pain they all are . ”

“It has been proved that even if we were to make a hurried move, it won’t prove any good . It may be trite, but let’s have the Academy get information from the Kuzunoha Company about the Great Lily . That should be the safe move . ”

“We can’t leave this city be either . We will use all the four major powers to strip them naked . I have a bad feeling about what this place can turn into . ”

“Foreboding?”

“Yeah . We can’t let the framework that’s the major powers crumble . There’s the need to pull some moves in order to make sure the surrounding countries don’t eat onto the weakened Aion . ”

“Aah…my head hurts . ”

“This state is okay until the demons are annihilated . I don’t care what happens to Aion after that . ”

“But it is joyous to see that the resolve of everyone gathered here hasn’t wavered . At the very least don’t forget to extend a helping hand . ”

“It seems like we have one absent though . ”

“…The elves . The fact that the successor and the representative can’t be contacted sadly must mean that . ”

“Estranging? Putting their hopes on the demons?”

“Don’t think it is that . But there’s no doubt they don’t share our views . ”

“It is painful that we are missing the long living race, but…rather than filling up the deficit, it is better to keep stability . ”

“Yeah . ”

““……””

“Then, let’s close it here . The next time, let’s talk about the future of the world . ”

Influential people were gathered for the announcement of Tsige as a nation .

There was a time in Rotsgard when the demons aimed for that chance to cause an incident, but these kinds of moments are normally perfect for meetings .

People from other countries of different organizations are gathered, so they can take that to their advantage to meet up .

In one of the few places in Tsige that even the eyes of the Rembrandt Company don’t reach, a meeting that goes beyond the borders of countries has taken place .

It isn’t as old as the Anti-Goddess Cult, but it is a gathering of influential people that live in the world of politics and put great importance in the inheritance of knowledge .

By the way, the Hopelace household also participated in this, but they have already been removed .

Anyways, the ‘pretty’ spell that Makoto used in Rotsgard had given them a new topic of discussion .

Makoto doesn’t know the meaning of the Great Lily spell .

It supplies magic power to others in a relatively easy manner which was something that one of a team of two, that managed to completely crush the army of demons in the past, used . They didn’t expect it to actually be a spell or skill .

These legendary two that are called the Two Pole Miracles were actually Ginebia and Haku Mokuren, but the people in the meeting don’t know that .

Great Lily is a spell that Ginebia created, and Maris Amvine is a Unique Skill of Haku . They basically managed to drive away the demons into the icy fields and were called the Two Polar Miracles, but that’s a story of a far past .

It has already gotten hazy whether it actually happened, and now only the name of the two special moves remain in a few who pride in their knowledge .

Also…there’s truly few who know about these people who watch over the world while maintaining it a secret, but there’s change showing within them as well .

“Now then…”

The executive that finished their meeting and returned to their surface social position went back to their living room in Tsige, and held a staff that was left in the room .

Then, she spoke the keywords and disappeared from that place in an instant together with that staff .

“How was it, the Meeting of the Nameless Ones?”

“It was the usual . They wished for the future of the whole world . ”

“Any penalties on me?”

“I moved the flow to defeating the demons first, so it should be safe until this war is over . ”

“Sorry, I owe you one . ”

“No, it is a joyous thing that we can have a friendly relationship with the elves . There’s no doubt that it will contribute to the development of Lorel as well . Don’t worry about it . This is apparently called give-and-take in Tsige . ”

“Tsige, huh . The core of the archery techniques that Louisa brought over were supposedly from there . Sairitz, how involved are you with the Kuzunoha Company?”

“I admire them to the point that I would be willing to tell them all about the organization . ” (Sairitz)

“! That’s quite the big betrayal there . Not like I am one to talk when I abandoned them though . ”

“A connection with them would have been of use in normal times, but in these times…what’s needed is power and resolve . Knowledge and prudence has the possibility of making it too late . ” (Sairitz)

“But the participants of the assembly need to clear the hurdle of the prided thought reading from the church before being able to join the meeting . If you go against it, they will obviously get suspected . I would like to know how you passed over that for future reference . ”

“Oh my, a long living elf would do something as boorish as shamelessly trying to sniff out the secret of a woman?” (Sairitz)

“I have never thought of you as a woman . But it is true that it was disrespectful to demand you to show your cards . You only lent us the elf treasure because you wanted my cooperation . ”

The secret meeting of the absent elf and Sairitz .

It is a suspicious to the extreme composition .

The organization that the woman that’s basically the one who manages Lorel was participating in gives out a dangerous and problematic scent to it, but she is defecting . If Makoto were to hear about this, he would say he is fine not hearing any further and would desperately want to leave .

She was currently at a deep and silent forest where the elf was waiting at a corner of it .

The elf is a man and there’s no way to tell how old he is from that young looking appearance of his .

He is the same as Sairitz who managed to hide her will of betrayal in some way and managed to participate in the assembly .

“Fufufu . ” (Sairitz)

“Hahaha . ”

Eventually both of them make smiles that have no emotion in them .

There’s no assurance that the enemy of their enemy is an ally .

The two knew that plenty well .

It could be seen as a place where they are showing their wills implicitly .

“…If possible, I pray that you are on the side of Tsige the next time we meet too . I don’t know the will of you guys in its entirety though . ”

“Yeah, let’s meet again one day . ”

Sairtz speaks out the keyword again and disappears from in front of the elf .

“Lorel’s witch…no, the ones who are clearly stirring around the world these few years is the Kuzunoha Company, huh . ”

The man had seen through the central part of this wildly changing world and muttered this .

On top of the information until now, it is true that Aion, which may have only existed for 200-300 years but managed to obtain the standing of major power, was easily shaken .

It is clear that they are outside the norm .

This is not the first time he witnesses the fall of a big country .

But this is the first time he witnesses a major power be tossed about without being able to do anything against it .

“I must make sure of it; the conclusion of the hyumans and demons, or maybe the conclusion of the Goddess’s era . ”

His words would simply be a monologue that would disappear into the forest .

But it was also foreseeing the maelstrom that would be shaking the world .
