Part 2, Chapter 17

 

* * *

 

[Idiot sibling.]

 

The man’s footsteps paused for a moment.

 

But his hesitation was brief.

 

His steps that had been crossing the corridor continued from end to end again.

 

[Idiot sibling.]

 

[Idiot.]

 

[Idiot.]

 

Just as he was thinking he should pluck out all the feathers to make it quiet, an elegant shadow silently flew over his head.

 

The owner of the shadow folded its wings and stopped on a man’s arm. Only after a chunk of raw meat was placed in the annoying beak that had been repeating ‘idiot sibling’ and ‘idiot’ did welcome peace return.

 

“Using it in actual practice right away. What a clever fellow indeed. Don’t you think so, Garrosh?”

 

Was he really asking such a thing as a question now?

 

The man who had been proudly watching the hawk, Verdandi, approached Garrosh. Meanwhile, the grey hawk that had gulped down its snack was staring at Garrosh with sharp golden eyes.

 

The hawk with the unpleasant name of Ash.

 

He had thought it was already sufficiently massive last year, but in less than a year it had grown to a size larger than an adult man’s torso. The size was one thing, but the fact that it had been growing non-stop for years was even more absurd.

 

But what was even more absurd was.

 

“Don’t tell me this beast has even learned human language?”

 

“Language? Ah… to be precise, it’s become capable of slightly more delicate communication. Through this translator.”

 

Walking side by side, Verdandi gestured toward a sphere the size of a thumbnail hanging around Ash’s neck.

 

“It’s a legacy left by Lord Dian Ket. It took a long time to repair. The magi output, the size of the gears, restoring the dozens of half-erased magic circles inside – I literally went through hell.”

 

To think Dian Ket had left behind a translator for communicating with beasts. It seemed even a figure of demigod status had nothing better to do.

 

“So nonsense like ‘idiot sibling’ is also part of Dian Ket’s legacy?”

 

Verdandi glanced back at him and let out an amused laugh.

 

“Are you getting worked up? That was purely your sister’s educational directive, so don’t blame me.”

 

Garrosh’s expression instantly hardened.

 

“…Has she awakened?”

 

“No.”

 

At the firm denial, his briefly hardened brow twisted roughly.

 

“Then why did you call me here?”

 

“You seemed to be expecting a reunion with your sister, sorry about that. It’s not for any grand reason – I just belatedly found a letter with your name on it among Daisy’s belongings.”

 

Crossing the long corridor, the two men entered a vast space where the sky was visible and naturally headed toward the innermost area.

 

Garrosh glanced at the abnormally huge bed that could easily fit five adults lying down, then approached Verdandi who stood before a table.

 

[Idiot sibling.]

 

Ash flew up into the air and settled beside the bed.

 

“Here. She probably prepared it before falling asleep. I haven’t opened it, so I don’t know the contents.”

 

Garrosh’s eyes were full of suspicion and distrust as he looked down at the crumpled letter.

 

‘A letter?’

 

She wasn’t the type to send something like this. He opened the letter without hesitation.

 

Could she have anticipated the current situation…

 

【To Andert.</p】

What are you doing?>

 

Garrosh’s gaze as he stared at the paper turned cold.

 

He was called all the way here for this piece of trash?

 

Verdandi, who had been secretly peeking from the side, looked at the letter with disbelieving eyes, then quickly turned his head away pretending not to know.

 

“Haha. Must be an unfinished letter. Well, that can happen. Haha.”

 

[Idiot sibling.]

 

“Well… want to look at some other things? These are items Daisy had when she stayed in the Banahel Kingdom.”

 

Garrosh was about to tear up and throw away the letter but stopped and turned his gaze to the table.

 

Various miscellaneous items were piled in an old-looking box. A sphere similar in form to Ash’s translator, old and worn books…

 

Among them, he opened what appeared to be the newest notebook.

 

【Hungry.</p】

Body hurts.

 

Sleepy.

 

Happy.

 

Bored.

 

Lu came.

 

Daisy is the best.

 

Idiot sibling.

 

…>

 

Idiot sibling.

 

“Ah… that’s your sister’s educational directive. It seemed like she left words to teach Ash, so I educated him in advance. That guy is ridiculously smart, so it was fun to teach him.”

 

Garrosh threw down the notebook and walked to the bed.

 

In the center of the pure white bedding, he could see a face sleeping unchanged as always. They said she had reached a great level – despite lying in the same position for years, not even a single bedsore had formed.

 

Looking at her clear and youthful face as if she had just fallen asleep, his mood began to sour.

 

Garrosh had learned of Daisy’s condition two years after her whereabouts became mysterious.

 

One day, Malicops suddenly came to find him and said:

 

“A message from Lord Urdr. He’s curious about your achievements and asks you to come to the holy land Kalerpa. In a week, an airship departing for Astrosia will arrive at the airport. If you have time, go meet Kalerpa and return.”

 

It was a time of turmoil.

 

Before the massive wounds Mephistopheles had left on this land could even heal, ominous winds blew once again.

 

The world formed a new alliance comparable to the magic alliance. The Pen Rota Empire and Contaninos Republic, which stood at its center, were minimizing damage through close communication with each other.

 

In that gap, Garrosh’s role was by no means small.

 

“Garrosh, this war will be the final testing ground to evaluate your leadership.”

 

“…”

 

“If no unexpected troubles arise, Berkleygraytown will be yours within five years. So show the world all the abilities you possess, but don’t close your eyes meaninglessly.”

 

Meeting the eyes of the man who was his master and practically his adoptive father, the Weatherwax Baroness, Garrosh swallowed dryly.

 

“…Isn’t it too early?”

 

“With Jin as the last, all competitors worthy of your level should have been defeated. What do you mean too early?”

 

“When Your Excellency is so vigorous, how could I dare become the Emperor’s sword? I’m not ready yet. Please give me more time.”

 

“You’re acting uncharacteristically spoiled.”

 

“…It’s not being spoiled.”

 

The Weatherwax Baroness looked down at him with eyes that were young, strong, and calm as always.

 

“Garrosh. Originally, all preparation ends with death. Something like ‘preparation to become the Emperor’s sword’ – I can say with certainty it can never be successfully completed. Can you deny my words?”

 

“…”

 

“True preparation begins the moment you become the Emperor’s sword. It’s from experience, so you can trust it. Let’s end this conversation here.”

 

Choosing to go to Kalerpa even while pushing himself during such an important time was… yes, he admits it.

 

It was because of Daisy. Though he never expected to receive such trashy memos.

 

Did his appearance quietly reminiscing about the past cause a misunderstanding? Verdandi, who had been watching from the side, patted Garrosh’s shoulder.

 

“Don’t worry, sibling. Your sister’s current condition is excellent. She’ll probably open her eyes soon.”

 

[Idiot.]

 

“Don’t talk nonsense. I’m not worried or anything.”

 

“Oh, really? What great trust. Yes, siblings should believe in each other. You really know what’s important. Just like that insufferable Urdr’s disciple.”

 

[Idiot sibling.]

 

“Shut up. Who’s that bastard’s disciple?”

 

“Truly excellent. I’ll pass those words to Urdr too. I can clearly picture his displeased face.”

 

[Idiot Daisy.]

 

At that moment.

 

The idiot’s closed eyes snapped open.
