Chapter 8 - Progress Report and the Princess’ heart

Translator: TheDoru

「Emarsh, please report.」 (Pattile)

Patille said to the female healer on the left of the two officers standing in front of the desk in the office.

「Yes, Your Highness. The training of the heroes is progressing well. I believe they are fully capable of challenging the labyrinth of trials.」 (Emarsh)

「Is that so?」 (Patille)

「Yes, Hinata-sama, Takashina-sama, Hazuki-sama, and Hozumi-sama’s followers have already gained that much strength.」 (Emarsh)

Emarsh looked at Lester, who was standing next to him.

He nodded slowly and loudly in agreement.

The two men here, Lester for martial arts and Emmersh for magic, are each responsible for training the heroes.

In addition, Emmersh was in charge of history and general knowledge.

「Um, how is…… Aomi-sama doing……?」 (Patille)

Patille asked in a slightly frustrated voice, since Ryou’s did not appear in their report.

「Aomi-dono is…」 (Lester)

Crossing his arms, Lester slowly opens his mouth, as if to say to himself.

「In my opinion, he is more suited for command and general staff than for actual combat.」 (Lester)

「What…… do you mean?」 (Patille)

Patille, who had watched Ryou’s blood-soaked efforts night after night, stared sharply at Lester with an unconvinced look on her face.

「…He can accurately view the battle, and has the ability to judge what to do based on the situation accurately」 (Lester)

「…I see…」 (Patille)

Patille put her hand on her chest and gave a faint smile.

Lester twisted his head at the gesture.

「Um, Your Highness?」 (Lester)

「Ah, y, yes. So, is there anything else…?」 (Patille)

Patille returned to the topic in a panic.

Lester didn’t even notice, but when Emarsh saw Patille, his mouth relaxed meaningfully.

「…There is one thing that is bothering me.」 (Lester)

Lester put his hand on his chin and said as if remembering.

「What’s bothering you?」 (Patille)

「Yes. No one, including Hyuga-dono, seems to be able to see their status yet.」 (Lester)

Only summoned people from other worlds, including the brave, can have their status displayed so that the same contents as the Sage’s tablet appear in front of them.

However, you can’t see other people’s status, and people in this world have no concept of status or skills.

In other words, even if you use the Philosopher’s Stone Tablet, it will only show you two things: your magic power and the amount of magic power you have.

「After a couple of more battles, he should be able to open the status viewer of his own volition…….」 (Lester)

Patille reminded herself in her mind and brought up the status.

“Patille Emerada Elrain”

Title: Princess of the Kingdom of Elrain, Sage

Age: 18 years old

Magic power: 160

Amount of magic power: 680

Skills:

Magic: Water, Wind, Holy

Physical Ability Correction

Abilities: Magic Power

The status is applied not only to otherworlders, but also to those who inherit their blood.

The royal family of Elrain which Patille came from was also one of the three royal families that inherited the blood of the heroes of the past.

「Mine is showing up, so it’s not a total anomaly. I’ll have to look into it.」 (Patille)

「May I ask His Highness to take care of this?」 (Lester)

Lester looked apologetically into Patille’s face.

「Yes, I’ll take care of it. Don’t worry, you don’t have to look like that.」 (Patille)

Lester was relieved.

For Lester and Emarsh, who had no concept of status, the problem was beyond their comprehension.

「Then we will postpone the challenge to the labyrinth of trials until we know the cause, is there a problem?」 (Patille)

「No.」 (Lester & Emarsh)

Lester and Emarsh answered together.

「Because it is our duty to eliminate unnecessary dangers…….」 (Patille)

It sounded to Lester as if the emphasis was on righteousness and duty.

「…If there’s nothing else, then we’re done.」 (Patille)

「Yes!」

Lester and Emarsh greeted each other in the kingdom style with their right hands on their chests and left the office.

In the middle of the corridor of the palace that led to the stairs to the first floor, Lester suddenly stopped and looked back at Emarsh who was walking behind him.

「What can I do for you?」(Emarsh)

Emarsh quizzically asked.

「…Her Highness Patille, you seem to be very concerned about Aomi-dono」 (Lester)

「Is that what this is about?」 (Emarsh)

Emarsh put his hand over his mouth, looked down and pondered for a while.

「At first, you were worried that you might have involved Aomi-sama in the summoning of the brave…… but now you are…….」 (Emarsh)

「And now?」 (Lester)

Emersch’s meaningful attitude made Lester hurry to continue, wondering if there was something important.

But Emarsh slowly tilted his head and smiled gracefully.

「I think it’s a bit silly to ask, don’t you?」 (Emarsh)

Lester had no idea what he was talking about for a moment, but then he thought of Patille’s face and nodded his head several times.

「Emarsh, about Aomi-dono……」 (Lester)

Lester, who had been smiling, suddenly turned serious, and Emarsh frowned.

「What’s the matter with Aomi-dono?」 (Emarsh)

「It would be best to keep an eye on him for the time being.」 (Lester)

Lester closed his eyes and folded his arms.

「What do you mean?」 (Emarsh)

「I told His Highness that…..」 (Lester)

With that as a warning, Lester continued.

「The growth of Hinata-dono and the other squires has been remarkable. Moreover, I’m sure they will become even stronger in the future.」 (Lester)

Emarsh nodded.

「Yes, more than any of us could ever hope to be.」 (Emarsh)

「But Aomii-dono is already close to the limit, and there is no hope for him to grow any further……. It may sound cruel, but if he continues to push himself too hard, what awaits him is certain death.」 (Lester)

Lester took a deep breath and paused.

「I think it’s time to show him another way, sooner rather than later.」 (Lester)

「…Yes」 (Emarsh)

After saying that, they started walking in silence.

The only sound in the hallway was the sound of their shoes.

Sitting on the window sill in the corridor overlooking the courtyard, he held the rose quartz necklace he had given to Mia in his palm and contemplated the relationship between this world and theirs.

My world is dominated by science, and Patille’s world is dominated by magic.

And the transition between the two worlds by summoning.

For Ryou, who considers everything scientifically, it was hard to accept the current situation, which was like something out of a novel.

But this is not a dream, this is reality.

And if there was such a thing as transference in reality, he began to wonder if reincarnation was even possible.

「What’s wrong? Ryou.」 (Patille)

When he turned around, Pattile was tilting her head.

「Patty…」 (Ryou)

He secretly tucked the necklace in his hand into his pocket.

「Yes.」 (Patille)

Pattile noticed that, but she happily replied, not mentioning the necklance that he had put away.

He thought to himself.

“Pattile, who actually did the summoning, must know about…”

「Um, Ryou?」 (Patille)

Patille was a little puzzled by the silent, Ryou.

「Patty, there’s something I need you to tell me…」 (Ryou)

「Yes, what is it?」 (Patille)

「Have you ever heard of a reincarnator?」 (Ryou)

Reincarnation. A reincarnation across two worlds.

「A reincarnator is it….」 (Patille)

Patille folded her arms and thought for a while, then looked up and put her fingertips to her mouth.

「This is only a rumor, but……. It is said that some of the people who have brought dramatic technological innovation to this world are actually reincarnated from other worlds.」 (Patille)

「So you’re telling me there are some?」 (Ryou)

My colleague’s eyes were tinted with anticipation.

「I think there are a few references to that in old literature, like…… that reincarnated people are born into this world with no memory of their previous life…….」 (Patille)

Patille looked up at the sky through the window and chose her words one by one.

「Also, things that you had strong feelings about in your previous life, such as your interests and tastes, as well as your habits and gestures, can appear.」

「…Is it really too convenient to keep the memories of your previous life completely intact….」 (Ryou)

Ryou muttered to himself, cowered exaggeratedly and laughed.

「I’m sorry, Ryou…… I couldn’t be of much help.」 (Patille)

「No, I’m just glad to hear your story, thank you.」 (Ryou)

There is a possibility that reincarnated people exist……. Ryou vaguely thought so.
