Chapter 389.2

I instantly understand what shes talking about, but remain silent.

Puyuyu? Puyu

Shuuya! Look, look! An odd fuzzball is opening and closing the cat door! Eva excitedly points at the door.

Huh? I cant see anything from down here, replies Rebecca while looking up to the ceiling.

Its Puyuyu aka the small bear cub Taro. Its probably looking for Rollos Squad? That or its simply interested in the cute beauty Eva-san?

Ah, you mentioned it in the blood messages. Its that Sea of Tree beastman with the whirly fur, right?

Yep. I think you might like it, Rebecca.

After all, Rebecca also likes Buu-tan.

Yeah, I love cute things.

By the waythe shelves and the other simple furniture give the whole house some kind of ambiance, commented Dee-san while pointing at the old-fas.h.i.+oned sofa and low, wooden table.

Well, I do sometimes take a liking to shelves and such.

I like this here. The decoration on the wallare those coins?

Just when Im about to brag about the wooden boxes lined up on the shelf, Lily asks me about the wall decoration.

You noticed? Youre right, its made out of copper coins.

Hee, Shuuya-san, you sure are wealthy!

Hmm, the interior design is stylish. Somehowoh well, whatever. Evaaa, leave Puyuyu alone and come down here. Were here for the apples, arent we? Though its the sweets in my case.

I guess Ill respond to Rebeccas sweets sensorI take out the apple pies made by Riedel and Gramps Ton, and give them to Rebecca.

Whooaaaa! What sweet fragrance! Time to dig in!

The pies are s.n.a.t.c.hed out of my hands before I can actually pa.s.s them to her. Holding a pie in each hand, Rebecca alternately takes bites of each.

Nn, womanly scent from the bed.

Eva has descended on my bed, just to casually check it out.

!

Rebecca glares at mewith her cheeks stuffed with apple pie.

Focus on eating your pies, seriously. Lets go downstairs, I rebuke her with a laugh while guiding them to the living room on the first floor.

Down there waited the causes for the womanly scents, Helme and Kisara. And the orcs.

The one speaking up first is Helme, Everyone, Im happy to see all of you in good health.

Thank you, Spirit-sama.

Nn, the mansions servants have been very sad ever since you, Spirit-sama, Balmint, and Onion-sensei left. Also, the number of weird statues has increased.

Statues? Hehe, I want to meet Millennium-chan, too.

Shuuyas family

Just as Higlia mutters so, Im introducing the Four Heavenly Witch Kisara to everyone.

This is your esteemed family, correct Shuuya-sama? It is a pleasure to meet all of you. Just as you might have heard from Shuuya-sama, I am one of the Four Heavenly Witches affiliated to the Black Witch Church. My name is Kisara.

Hearing Kisaras august greeting, Rebecca becomes fl.u.s.tered with her eyebrows twitching. Or rather, after comparing her small b.o.o.bs with Kisaras big cleavageshes revealing a rather sad expression.

On the other hand, Eva looks very calm, not being perturbed in the least. After casting a fleeting glance at Kisaras chest, she smiles and answers, Nn, Im Eva. Nice to meet you, Kisara-san. Your eye color is as pretty as Rebeccas. Your b.o.o.bs are big, too.

Next to her, Rebecca reacts to Evas confident statement with her body jerking. Once Eva s.h.i.+fts her eyes towards Rebecca, Rebeccas golden eyebrows twitch once more.

Eva has apparently recalled that Rebecca is worried about her bust size.

Nn, sorry, she apologizes.

N-No problem at all! Kisara-san, nice to meetcha! Im Rebecca Ibhin, Shuuyas

Hearing Rebeccas name, Kisaras expression changes so much that its actually visible through her mask. Shes also checking out Rebeccas ears.

A faint trace of hesitation reveals itself on her face. I wonder whats going on?

After taking a short moment to confirm, Kisara speaks up, It is nothing of urgent direness, but I will also become a family member sooner or later

Nn, well welcome you then. But, Shuuya is a careful man. Its not like we became his bloodkin right after getting to know him either.

Shes got a point there, I agree in my mind while recalling the first time I met her. Back then she was called Death G.o.ddess Eva or Death Wheel Eva, was it? Which reminds me, Rebecca was hated as well. Veronica is a death G.o.ddess of blood, too. Yui is an apostle of Baycala, or rather possesses eyes with Baycalas divine blessing.

True that. It took a bit of timeafter we formed a party for the first time.

I am well aware of that, says Kisara while looking at me, I think all of my live, including my meeting with the great

and superb magic spearmaster Shuuya-sama, who is as magnanimous as the heavens, is divine providence.

Divine providence, huh? I can agree to that. After all, she encountered me at the end of a long chain of coincidences.

Nn, I understand the reason for you calling it divine providence. Ive read in Shuuyas blood messages about your many past battles in the great deserts and you being sealed away after losing against Hoffmann. Also that Shuuya is the messiah the Black Witch Church has been eagerly awaiting.

Indeed.

magic spearmaster, was it? Its a bit strange, but I can agree with it. To be honest, I thought Id be a bit more jealous, butit was only like that at first. Also, is it just me who feels like knowing about Kisara-san for a long, long time?

Well, you heard a lot about her through my blood messages.

Nn, I dont really feel like that. Her eyes are as beautiful as Spirit-samas, though.

Thanks, Eva. Kisara-chans b.u.m is dreamy too, but I only met her just recently, too.

Listening to our conversation, Kisara nods once more. And then she directs her blue eyes directly at Rebecca. Once I turn my face towards her, Kisara genuflects.

Yes. Me too

Kisara, is there anything you want to tell us?

Would that be okay? It is a little something about Rebecca-san.

Eh? Me?

Yes. One of the masters in the Black Witch Church was called Alson Ibhin.

The same surname means

My Dad was called Heat Ibhin, but dont tell me

Blue flames blaze up in Rebeccas eyes. Those flames also spring forth on both her arms.

The color of your flames and your long ears resemble those of Alson.

Then he might be a high elf like me. Its also possible that hes a relative if he can use the blue flame. Where is that Alson right now?

If they share the same bloodline

Rebecca awoke her blue flame through her

which she obtained after becoming my bloodkin, but maybe Also has awoken the power of his unique bloodline during battle or training

He is missing.

I seeif hes still alive, Id love to meet him. Ah Rebecca has started to cry.

Thats right, isnt it? She has been living together with Betty-san whos been her family and mother for her, butnow shes heard that a truly blood-related family member might still be around. Shes probably thinking that shes not all alone Thatd make anyone cry.

Tears naturally well up in my eyes as well.

Hehe, sorry for dampening the mood with my crying.

Nn, no worries Eva hugs Rebecca.

After getting her fill of Evas soft chest, Rebecca separates from her, and says, Hehe, that was soothing. Thanks.

Nn.

So thats why I felt a connection with Kisara-san. That and the link of the Ancient White Star StoneNepuaHighcient; the meeting with Shuuya might have been fate after all.

That might be true, butas far as Im aware through Kazane, life is an acc.u.mulation of such fates, is what I want to believe.

Ancient White Star Stone.

Come to think of it, you had it equipped when you fought against me, right?

Yes. Alson Ibhin has entrusted me with the NepuaHighcient. (First appearance in Interlude Rebecca [136])

Eh?

Thats a surprise.

Eeehh!?

Nn, surprise.

Well

Helme has half-liquefied while floating in the air. Everyone else is looking surprised, too.

Why are you so surprised? Because of the NepuaHighcient?

However, Higlia isnt surprised, but then again, she doesnt understand it either. And the orcs react with nothing but silence.

Though thats inevitable as they dont understand our words.

And, I was told, Remember, the one melting this will be your desired partner

For real?

I got surprised once more. So thats the reason for Kisara adoring me to such an extent. Even as witch of DamoAnun shes got an unshakable reason, but it seems to not only be the effect of

which contains

.

It looks like Kisara-san is going to become the strongest among us, exceeding even Veronika whos been living for centuries, once she becomes a

Yui, Kaldo, and Viine are fairly strong as well, though.

Yep. But, Shuuya has been speaking lovingly of her, including a respect similar to the one he shows his martial arts master Its easy to estimate that shes a formidable fighter.

Nn, martial arts as witch of DamoAnun and unarmed martial arts?

Yep, including the unique magic breathing of a Four Heavenly Witchshe also possesses the demonoid martial arts handed down by Mephalla. That Hundred Ogre Path of hers seems to include paper dolls which can heal and train, projectiles, and daggersAlso, I wanna see Muu-chan!

Nn, me too! Im going to show her my juggling!

Dont get in the way of her training, okay?

I worry as the two frolic around. But, I can understand their feelings. Ive become completely engrossed with reporting each and every thing to Eva and Rebecca through blood messages.

Muu is on the training ground right now. Also, you can call me a witch spear, I guessso I do have some confidence in my combat abilities.

Yep. While that may be true, that doesnt mean that well give in. Were the bloodkin here. And, our

has been evolving! Ive also prepared this weapon for today!

Is Rebecca burning with a compet.i.tive spirit in regards to Kisara? She holds up her magic wand Guphon and the katar with its blade protruding out of her fist.

At that point, I also introduce Higlia whos been silently waiting while wagging her tail.
