Part 2
(Side Story)
Episode 20
The next day.
I climbed to the attic of the Cabin and fired Flares out the Window without pause, one after another.
Surely Enoch Aster Klaus Langrid would see them and come find me.
“System window, can you tell me if Enoch Aster Klaus Langrid has confirmed the Flares?”
[Target: Enoch Aster Klaus Langrid]
[Location detected by target.]
[Target’s approach speed increasing]
[Estimated time until collision: 01:30:29]
See? I told you.
The system window won’t reveal others’ locations, but it happily provides information like this.
“Sister, what are you doing?”
Just then, Jenas climbed up to the Cabin’s attic.
He smiled at me with a grin that somehow felt unsettling.
“Oh, I was just testing this thing because I didn’t know what it was. Looks like magical fireworks. Pretty interesting, right?”
“You use far more interesting things than that, and this is what fascinates you?”
“It could be.”
“It looks like something from Korea.”
“…Huh? Korea? Where is that?”
I’d already shown him everything from the Camping Trailer anyway, but I decided to feign ignorance about Korea just to be safe.
Jenas simply smiled without saying anything.
How could an eleven-year-old boy’s face smile so terrifyingly?
“I was joking.”
“I’m not in the mood for jokes.”
The smile vanished from Jenas’s face.
He held out his empty hand and waved it.
“The toy you gave me as a Gift has disappeared.”
“You should have taken better care of it. Where did you lose it? Don’t apologize so much. I’m generous, so I’ll forgive you.”
Jenas stared at me with a bewildered expression.
What? What is it?
When I shrugged shamelessly, he sighed. And truthfully, I already knew why Jenas had lost the Key Ring.
The Key Ring was registered to me as its user, so anyone other than me couldn’t use it.
And because it had the property of returning to its registered user even if someone else stole it, it came back to me.
In other words, my pocket feeling heavy right now meant the Key Ring had returned to me.
“You knew, didn’t you?”
“Knew what?”
“That the Key Ring would disappear. Where is it? Stop feigning ignorance. I witnessed it vanish from my hands.”
“How would I know that? I gave you the Key Ring, and I’ve been here the whole time.”
“So you’re going to act like this?”
Jenas sighed.
.
.
.
And just like that, I was confined to the Basement beneath Jenas’s Cabin by Jenas himself.
Wait. But I didn’t even know this Cabin had a Basement? I thought the Basement only existed in Jenas’s Cabin.
Anyway, I was dragged along by Magic Power, so I couldn’t refuse.
Of course, I could handle him if I activated Battle Mode, but it didn’t seem like the right time to use it yet.
I had a time limit, so I needed to conserve it.
“Think carefully about this here, sister.”
Jenas answered with a smirk and closed the Door.
Just before the Door shut, I rolled an acorn I’d brought along slightly across the Floor, and fortunately, Jenas didn’t seem to notice.
I sat quietly in the Basement with no Window, then pulled out my Key Ring.
Should I go inside the Camping Trailer and take a nap while waiting for Enoch Aster Klaus Langrid to arrive?
By the way, where did the Prince of Asdal go?
But I’d already fired all my Flares into the sky, and Enoch Aster Klaus Langrid had already pinpointed my location.
So all I had to do was wait here for Enoch Aster Klaus Langrid to come.
From the start, I’d actually anticipated that Jenas would act like this. His affection might increase a little when he sees me pitied after being confined by Jenas. At least stealing a Kiss wouldn’t be that difficult.
Since affection increased by a certain percentage each time I attempted a Kiss, I had to Kiss him whenever the opportunity arose.
After all, physical affection naturally leads to emotional connection. The System clearly had this in mind.
For a System to understand such things.
Every so often, I felt an intense curiosity about this System like some mad scientist.
How did this System, which even Kaiden doesn’t know about, come to exist?
No matter how much I racked my brain over it every day, I didn’t have the Material of a mad scientist like Kaiden or Jenas, and my mind had its limits in what I could figure out.
Anyway, returning to Kisses with Enoch Aster Klaus Langrid.
Once I start a Kiss, the next stage might become very easy.
I pulled out a sleeping bag from the Camping Trailer, spread it on the Floor, and turned on an LED Lantern beside it. Then I took out a lithium-ion Battery and an electric Kettle.
I pulled out a Water bottle from the backpack I’d been carrying since the Cabin’s attic. Just in case, I always carried Water that I’d purified.
Anyway, I put Water in the electric Kettle and boiled it. In the meantime, I took out a cup and the tea leaves I’d been collecting.
I ground the tea leaves into powder, then put them in a strainer. Then I poured the boiling Water and steeped the tea leaves.
A warm and fragrant aroma spread throughout.
Ah. This is nice.
I got into the sleeping bag and sat there, sipping the warm tea and lounging around.
The Camping Trailer had everything except what it didn’t have, so it was wonderful.
My Will to have a magic pocket like that of a certain famous character was reflected so perfectly.
Ah. Good. So good.
After finishing the tea, I felt drowsy and crawled into the sleeping bag, zipped it up, and closed my eyes.
I should get a little rest.
.
.
.
I couldn’t fall asleep.
I opened my eyes again and turned on the Lantern.
I wished I had a book at least.
Even instant noodles would do.
“System. When I move to the next dimension, put some food in the Camping Trailer. Even instant noodles!”
At my cry, a blue holographic window materialized in the dark Basement.
[Your request has been acknowledged.]
“Does that mean you’ll do it?”
[Your request has been acknowledged.]
Sigh. What’s the point of talking to you?
I gave up and lay back down in my sleeping bag. As I lay there blankly, I noticed a strange marking on the inside of my Forearm.
“Huh? A tattoo?”
There was something like a tattoo on the inside of my Forearm.
Looking closer, it didn’t seem to be a tattoo but rather a mark of some kind, though it was peculiar. It was shaped like a crescent moon.
In that moment, a hologram appeared.
[Memory Key of Parallel Dimension #01 confirmed]
[Sealed Memory synchronization available]
[Proceed with synchronization?
yes/no]
What? This marking was the Key to Margaret Rose Flone’s Memory?
I examined the crescent moon marking again. It seemed Margaret Rose Flone had some special episode connected to this crescent moon.
[Proceed with synchronization?
yes/no]
The System window requested synchronization once more.
Yes! Yes! Synchronize it for me!
[Sealed Memory synchronization in progress…]
[…12%]
[…36%]
[…89%]
[100%]
[Synchronization complete]
[User, Memory fragment influx beginning-]
Beep-
A sharp ringing pierced my ears.
It was a familiar sensation.
I had experienced this phenomenon before when I returned to my body from Korea and opened my eyes on the Uninhabited Island.
Ugh.
At that dizzying sensation as if my eardrums would rupture, I covered my ears with both hands and hunched over.
The memories of Margaret Rose Flone from Parallel Dimension #01 came flooding in.
Just as the system had said, those memories were synchronizing with me.
