Chapter 1741: Intermission: Stomachache from a Different Timeline

With the end of the date between Kaito and Shallow Vernal, the world that had temporarily diverged as a separate timeline returned to its original timeline, and the memories and history of the world are adapted from how it was in the original timeline.

The memories of the diverged timeline are generally not inherited by the original timeline, but there are some exceptions. This is the case for the people that Shallow Vernal has decided to have their memories taken over.

First of all, although its a matter of course, Kaito has memories of both timelines. In the first place, the use of a divergent timeline only on this day is a measure to avoid schedule conflicts for multiple lovers in seasonal events, so Kaito inherited his memories.

Other than him, theres Shallow Vernal, Kuromueina, Makina, Alice and although just barely counted, Fate Those on Quasi-Omnipotent Level or Omnipotent Level can share their memories between different timelines through their inherent abilities, allowing them to inherit the divergent timelines memories.

And other than them, there are also those who Shallow Vernal intentionally allowed to receive the memories of the time in the divergent timeline. In this case, Marine, who Kaito exchanged greetings with for the first time, and Lilia are the targets of memory transfer.

Theres no problem with Marine. The only substantial memory she had received was having met Kaito, and there was no major problem with it. If someone had a problem, it would be Lilia, who somehow always finds herself drawing the short end of the stick.

On the morning two days after the Founding Festival ended, Lilia was in the office organizing letters and other doc.u.ments. She was doing this in relation to some of the n.o.bles and other people with whom she had made new connections after partic.i.p.ating in Hydra Kingdoms Founding Festival.

Lilias maid, Lunamaria, also a.s.sisted her, and while they were working as usual Lilia suddenly stopped moving.

[Unnn? Whats the matter, Lili? Something on your mind?]

[]

[You look rather pale. I find it hard to believe that Lili could be ill, but are you alright?]

Calling her by her pet name as theyre currently alone, Lunamaria looked at her worriedly. The reason for this is that Lilias face is getting paler and paler, and she even started sweating profusely.

The reason for this is simple: at this moment, a timeline merger has taken place and Lilia is receiving the memories of the other timeline. Yes, those stomach-churning memories of her days in Hydra Kingdom

[My stomach it hurts]

[Like, do you mean mentally?]

[Yes.]

[Why all of a sudden? It doesnt seem like Miyama-sama has done anything in particular today though?]

Lilia saying her stomach hurt made Lunamaria tilt her head. First of all, Lilia possesses power on par with Count-rank Demons, and furthermore, she has received a True Blessing from Chronois, a Supreme G.o.d. Thus, shes immune to illnesses and has overwhelming resistance to all kinds of abnormalities.

And so, the fact that Lilia is experiencing stomach ache would primarily be a mental issue, and the first thing that comes to Lunamarias mind is Kaito. However, Kaito hadnt done anything in particular today, so Lunamaria couldnt comprehend what was going on.

[No, not today, but at the Founding Festival.]

[Hmm? Founding Festival? Didnt things pa.s.s through peacefully on that day? There was no big trouble that day, and there shouldnt have been anything related to Miyama-sama that occurred, right?]

[Thats certainly the case, but thats also not the case AHH, I CANT CLEARLY CONVEY THIS FRUSTRATION IM FEELING!!!]

Lilia has inherited her memories, but Lunamaria has not. Therefore, Lunamaria is completely unaware of the stomach-churning day Lilia has experienced in that divergent timeline.

For Lilia, what shes experiencing at the moment is no different from suddenly being hit with stomachache from a different timeline, but explaining it in a way she could gain Lunamarias empathy is difficult, so she could only hold her head with an indescribable expression on her face.

Makina : [Ah, so last chapters the end of the date with Shallow Vernal?]

? ? ? : [Well, theyve already promised a separate onsen trip. Arent they gonna do it for real at that time?]

Makina : [I see~~]
