Simply after Louise left the room… Saito, mendacity alone on the mattress, organized his ideas. Not daring to shut his eyes, he thought of what he ought to do sooner or later.

The reality of the “Holy Land” revealed, the opposition between “Magi” and “Varyag”.

If the Pope’s phrases have been true, it meant that the “Magi” have been the ancestors of Louise and the opposite nobles of Halkeginia, and that the individuals of Earth, like himself, are the descendants of the “Varyag”.

Nonetheless, Saito thought that this was suspicious as a substitute.

It must be stated that the “Varyag” military, seen within the dream of six thousand years in the past, was sporting armor that resembled the heavy infantry of Historic Greece. Nonetheless, the Earth 6,000 years in the past would nonetheless be in one thing just like the Stone Ages… They wouldn’t possess that type of navy tools.

Had been the “Varyag”, just like the “Magi”, an historic civilized nation that used to exist on Earth….

Nonetheless, these issues weren’t vital. Whether or not or not the present individuals of Earth have been the direct descendants of the “Varyag” didn’t matter to the Pope in any respect.

Though Louise was very resolute, Saito didn’t suppose that she may persuade the Pope. The Pope would undoubtedly use any means essential to drive Louise to solid Void magic on Earth.

“Say, is there a method to inform the Earth about this disaster?”

This was the primary thought that got here to Saito’s thoughts. Beforehand, a sign received via to his laptop computer as soon as, and it obtained emails from Earth. If the “Door” to the Holy Land was opened, it might be doable to ship a message to the Earth from this facet. However that a military from one other world was about to invade the Earth… Who would consider that type of absurd story?

“I may merely take Louise and fly away.”

No, even when they actually did this, may they shake off pursuit by Romalia, not realizing how lengthy his physique would final at current?

“No, that gained’t do… I can’t consider any good technique.”

Saito sprawled on the mattress and held his aching head. Even when he wished to debate it with Derflinger, his associate was nonetheless asleep and never responding.

Simply then, somebody knocked on the door.

“Saito, I heard Ms. Vallière say that you simply’re already awake.”

It was Siesta and Tiffania holding alternative sheets. When Tiffania noticed Saito, her deep blue eyes out of the blue burst into tears and he or she hugged Saito.

“God, Saito… that’s nice….”

“Ti-Tiffa…wow!”

On the physique of the half-elf woman, miraculous objects holding the mass of melons, but in addition with a marshmallow-like “squish~”, squeezed towards Saito’s physique.

Seeing the blushing Saito, Siesta smiled sweetly

“Oh, Saito has fully recovered his vigor. I’ll report this to Ms. Vallière.”

“Don’t do this!”

Listening to Saito’s cry, Tiffania out of the blue got here again to herself, and launched Saito.

“I’m sorry. I used to be so comfortable to listen to the excellent news about you, Saito, I couldn’t assist it….”

“Oh, uh, it’s okay….”

After Saito coughed, Tiffania stated with a depressed look.

“Saito, I’m really sorry….”

“It doesn’t matter. Apart from, I completely loved it….”

Saying that, Siesta instantly glared at him. Saito promptly coated his mouth.

“No, it’s not… It’s all my fault that Saito fainted.”

Tiffania’s lengthy ears sadly hung down limp, and with this Saito figured it out. Tiffania nonetheless believed that it was her fault that Saito turned the “Lífþrasir”.

“It’s not your fault Tiffa. And because of Tiffa making me her acquainted, I can defend Tiffa and Louise.”

“Saito….”

Giant tears overflowed from Tiffania’s deep blue eyes.

At the moment.

“Hey, Saito, you awake? Individuals are nervous about you.”

“As quickly as your eyes open, you’re already busy flirting, fortunate you.”

Guiche and Malicorne leaned their heads via the opened door. Behind them was additionally Colbert, Kirche, and Tabitha.

“Wait, all people shouldn’t rush in right here all of sudden. Saito simply awoke!”

Siesta reminded everybody along with her arms on her waist.

“Sorry, there are some issues I’d wish to ask Saito.”

Colbert stated.

“I don’t thoughts, I can already rise up.”

“No, I don’t thoughts in the event you proceed to put down, it’s alright to loosen up.”

Reaching out to cease Saito from getting away from bed, Colbert sat on a chair beside the mattress.

“Saito, what occurred within the “Holy Land”, are you able to inform us?”

Saito simply realized this. He linked eye with Tiffania, and noticed her shake her head. It didn’t seem that they’d been knowledgeable concerning the particulars.

“I do know. Though it could be a bit unbelievable for everyone….”

Then, Saito informed the reality that the Pope revealed within the “Holy Land”.

Together with that there was no “Magic System” there to cease the wind stones from going uncontrolled. The true face of the “Holy Land” was truly Saito’s homeland. Additionally concerning the “Magi” and the “Varyag”, and the truth that the Founder Brimir and Saito have been the identical, each of them from a distinct world….

“……”

After Saito completed talking, the room was shrouded in a heavy silence.

Colbert, Kirche, Tabitha, Siesta, Tiffania and others already knew that Saito was an individual from a distinct world. However this was truly the primary time that Guiche and Malicorne had heard, and their mouths stupidly hung open.

“Wa-wait, you imply that you simply’re an individual from a distinct world!”

“Ah, yeah….”

After Guiche spoke, Saito awkwardly nodded his head.

“So earlier than, you stated you got here from Rub’ al-Khali….

“Sorry, as a result of I believed it will be an excessive amount of bother to clarify… sorry.”

Saito introduced his arms collectively, and apologized to Guiche and Malicorne.

Though the 2 have been surprised for some time,

“Nicely, I initially thought there was a whole lot of variations between you and the individuals of this world… Oh, I actually can’t consider you as an individual from a distinct world.”

When Saito requested, “Are you offended with me?”

“No, even in the event you’re from a distinct world, Saito remains to be Saito.”, Guiche shrugged as he responded.

“Oh, you’re only a regular pervert, who’s turn into nothing greater than a pervert from one other world.”

Malicorne additionally cheerfully patted Saito’s shoulder.

“You guys… thanks.”

Seeing the traditional perspective of the 2 in the direction of him, warmed Saito’s coronary heart.

“Say, are there cute women in your world?”

“Oi, you.”

Confronted with Guiche’s severe query, Saito answered, astonished.

“Hey, you all the time take note of that.”

“A-are there women that like brief, fats guys?”

“Oi, you guys, this ain’t a spot to speak about these sorts of carefree issues. Saito’s world and Halkeginia are presently going through the potential of battle breaking out.”

With Kirche’s glare, the 2 instantly shrank again politely.

After listening to Saito’s story, Colbert continued to ponder with a considerate expression.

Saito had by no means seen him present such a pointy expression at school.

“Mr. Colbert?”

When Saito requested, Colbert lastly cleared his throat and murmured.

“There’s no likelihood of successful.”

“What?”

“If battle breaks out with Saito’s world, Halkeginia will undoubtedly lose.”

“…!”

Saito was shocked to listen to how rapidly Colbert reached that conclusion. He deserved to be referred to as a scholar who had totally studied the weapons and instruments of Saito’s world, and his understanding on this level was quicker than anybody else.

“Ri-right! It must be stated that it’s completely unattainable to win. On Earth at current, there are way more superior weapons than the Zero fighter and the Tiger Tank.”

“Hey, what you stated, it’s an exaggeration, proper?”

Guiche responded.

“In spite of everything, that tank’s predominant cannon may even handed via the Elf’s ’Reflection’, and the ’Dragon’s Raiment’ that you simply pilot can fly quicker than any Wind Dragon. How can these legendary weapons be in all places?”

Saito held his head in fear, in the long run what was one of the simplest ways to clarify it…?

“This, what in the event you examine the “Tiger Tank” together with your damaged golem?”

“Hey, that was impolite.”

“That is simply an instance, so hearken to me. If that ’Tiger Tank’ is your golem, the tanks presently on Earth are just like the ’Knight Doll’ operated by Mjöðvitnir. Roughly talking, the hole in efficiency is that huge.”

“Wh-what did you say!”

This made Guiche shout.

The distinction between the “Jörmungandr” made by Mjöðvitnir, and magically created golems was big. Jörmungandr nearly had the identical mobility as a human.

Though Saito was additionally uncertain, the efficiency of present state-of-the-art weapons undoubtedly far surpassed the antiques of the Second World Struggle.

Not solely tanks and fighter plane, but in addition fight helicopters, bombers, plane carriers, submarines, and destroyers [1]…. Even a lightweight machine gun can kill a whole bunch of individuals, whereas Halkeginian wizards chant their lengthy spells.

“Saito, is that this true?”

Guiche requested with the nook of his mouth barely twitching.

“Yeah.”

“Are there actually such horrible “Weapons” in your world?”

“Not solely that, however 1000’s and 1000’s of them. And there are weapons which are dozens of instances stronger than the “Jewel of Fireplace”… It wouldn’t be an issue to destroy a city, no, a rustic.”

Everybody fell into silence.

They have been in all probability remembering when Gallia’s amphibious fleet[2] was destroyed in a second, and the nightmarish energy of the “Jewel of Fireplace”. Weapons that have been dozens of instances stronger than the “Jewel of Fireplace”… the ability was so unbelievable that even Saito couldn’t think about it.

“But finally, His Holiness insisted on beginning a battle?”

This time Kirche spoke.

“Um, the Pope stated he had an opportunity to win….”

“Don’t inform me the prospect is Louise’s superb magic?”

“Just about.”

Saito nodded. But it surely didn’t matter how superb Louise’s “Void” was, it was unlikely to win towards the Earth relying solely on that.

At the moment, horrible ideas appeared in Saito’s thoughts.

What if after a rustic was attacked from an unknown location with “Void”, one other nation could be counterattacked with nuclear weapons? What if the nation that was attacked retaliates with nuclear weapons?

He heard that there are sufficient nuclear weapons on Earth to destroy it a number of hundred instances over. If this sort of factor actually occurred, wouldn’t it result in apocalyptic mutual self-destruction…?

“Don’t inform me the Pope has already thought that far?”

“Alas, this appears to be associated to the problem of Halkeginia’s survival.”

Colbert whispered with a extreme expression.

“However the ’Door’ is clearly on the backside of the ocean, so how do you ship the military?”

Kirche spoke the important thing query.

Saito undoubtedly had that query as properly. It was laborious to think about sending numerous troops and vessels to that place. They wouldn’t ship them separately… anyway, the Pope will need to have a technique.

Guiche raised his arms, and appeared up on the ceiling.

“Hey, Albion, Gallia, the Elves, and subsequent we’re going to battle with one other world… issues are getting increasingly more outrageous, aren’t they.”

—

On the identical time… Louise, who used an owl to seek out the Pope of Romalia, took a pegasus organized by the templars and boarded the “St. Mark”, the warship completely utilized by the Pope.

The go to request was instantly accepted. Beneath the steerage of a younger nun named Michaela, Louise went to the ready workplace of Vittorio. Certain sufficient, as an vital piece within the Pope’s plan, Louise wasn’t stopped.

Strolling via the quiet environment of the passageway, Louise chewed her lip.

To be sincere, she didn’t hesitate to board the Pope’s non-public vessel.

Contemplating the issues that Romalia had performed beforehand, she couldn’t preclude them grabbing her on the spot and utilizing the Elven drug to deprive her of her purpose.

“In the event that they dare to do it, I’ll use the “Void” to bomb the ship.”

In her coronary heart, Louise resolved herself.

She had been protected by Saito many instances earlier than. Desperately defending her willful, bitter, completely uncute self but actively expressing his love. No, it’s not solely that. He clearly had a chance to return to his authentic world, however he voluntarily stayed for himself.

So how did she repay Saito. Not solely did she solely consider herself each time, she was jealous of Tiffa, Siesta, and the princess, however she additionally acted childishly.

“This time, it’s my flip to guard Saito.”

I promise to let Saito return to his authentic world….

“Your Holiness, Ms. La Vallière has come.”

Arriving on the workplace’s door, Michaela calmly spoke.

“Please let her enter.”

After Michaela opened the door, she let Louise enter the workplace.

The decided Louise walked in. She was decided that till she modified the Pope’s thoughts, she would refuse to depart this room.

“I’m Louise Françoise Le Blanc de La Vallière, I thank your Holiness, the Pope, for permitting me to pay my respects, I really feel really honored.”

Utilizing all of Tristain’s aristocratic etiquette, Louise paid her respect.

“I made you wait, Ms. Vallière.”

Vittorio stood up, and urged Louise to take a seat in a chair.

“No, it’s okay if I stand. Immediately I’ve come right here to advise your Holiness, the Pope. I implore you to rethink launching a “Holy Struggle”. It’s troublesome for me to agree that utilizing the ability of the ’Void’ to beat Saito’s homeland is right.”

“I do know very properly that you simply care about your acquainted’s emotions.”

Vittorio answered with a gentle smile.

“However I can’t agree together with your request. That is definitely not an accurate transfer. Nonetheless, this battle isn’t a confrontation between good and evil, however merely a battle for survival. If we don’t acquire new land to reside on, eventually we’ll perish. So we are able to solely select, Ms. Vallière. Weigh religion and compassion on the scales and select to avoid wasting Halkeginia.”

The sunshine of sturdy willpower was contained in Vittorio’s eyes, and made Louise really feel a bit timid.

What the Pope stated was right, that Halkeginia would perish once more… that was a truth. Moreover, the ability of the “Void” that was handed all the way down to her by the Founder ought to actually be used to avoid wasting the world.

Nonetheless, Louise didn’t retreat.

There was an unbending perception in her personal coronary heart that resisted this right argument.

Louise stated as she glared at Vittorio with a provocative look.

“I don’t plan on serving to with the wild ambitions of your Holiness. In case your Holiness will use the ability of the Void it doesn’t matter what, then I’ll kill myself proper right here.”

“You don’t have any approach to try this.”

“I’m severe, please don’t underestimate my willpower.”

Louise answered resolutely.

“If this goes on, do you not care in the event you sacrifice the one that you love acquainted?”

“What?”

Louise’s eyes expanded when she heard the Pope’s phrases.

“Your Holiness, please, this… I don’t perceive what you imply.”

This made Louise’s voice tremble.

She out of the blue felt a tremendously horrible, detestable premonition flowing over her complete physique.

Vittorio continued to talk.

“You must know, the flexibility of the ultimate acquainted ’Lífþrasir’ is the ’Magic Energy Provide’ for individuals who possess the void. So long as ’Lífþrasir’ remains to be alive, he’ll proceed to provide his life to all who possess the Void.”

“Life…?”

Louise couldn’t assist however be struck dumb.

“It appears you didn’t hear this.”

“As a result of Saito didn’t say a factor….”

What the ultimate acquainted provided those that possess the Void wasn’t non secular energy, however his life.

There was no approach Saito didn’t understand this. No, it wasn’t doable. As a way to not fear me, he undoubtedly saved it to himself and didn’t reveal it.

“Ms. Vallière, even in the event you don’t use the ability of the ’Void’, his life will run dry in the future. That is the destiny that the acquainted ’Lífþrasir’ bears… and even in the event you and the opposite contractor, Miss Westwood, lose your lives, as soon as the acquainted runes have been engraved they gained’t disappear.”

Even the Pope’s phrases didn’t enter Louise’s head anymore.

Saito would die. Simply this thought prompted Louise’s thoughts to furiously spin.

It seems that at the moment, Saito fainted due to this!

“Even when Ms. Vallière doesn’t use the ’Void’, his life might be exhausted. At most it should assist him for a number of extra days, so would you like his demise to be pointless?”

Louise fell to the ground like a puppet with its strings lower.

If she have been to proceed to do nothing, Saito would die. Even when Louise, the grasp, died, it wouldn’t change his future.

Saito, would die?

For Louise, that was like the tip of the world.

At the moment, Vittorio, with eyes filled with compassion, spoke to Louise.

“However there is just one method to save him. And it’s the one method to save Halkeginia and cease the revival of the Void.”
