Chapter 8 Self-reliance

Aisha's research room, the headquarters of the Holy King's Church, is still working normally today, and Aisha herself is reading ancient books about the history of the Holy King, and her students next to her are trying to think of new songs for their teacher's side business because they have no instructions from their teacher. Originally, this was the usual scene of this laboratory, but today there was one more guest.

"That's why I'm always going to provide my own research room as a refuge for your emotional disputes, my noble Highness the Holy King. ”

"Ahaha, don't say that, I have a serious reason to visit you. ”

"If you mean the knife you just gave me, didn't I just refuse it after you said it was commissioned? Although archaeology is also part of my research, the analysis and identification of equipment is done by another department of our Church, and wouldn't it be more convenient to hand it over to the technical department at the Authority?"

I believe that Eiffel, who heard his teacher's series of conversations on the side, has already noticed that today's teacher does not seem to be in a very good mood. Especially after Eiffel excitedly told her teacher this morning that someone inside the Authority had brought two young girls of the age to spend the night together at a high-level wedding.

[I'm sorry, Your Highness, but I can only pray for you. 】

Eiffel was rare and silent, silently writing meaningless notes to maximize the gesture of "I don't know anything".

"The ...... Anyway, do you care about that rumor? It's obviously my dad's disgusting revenge for me, and those two are Naba and Fett, so I can't do anything to them at the same time. ”

"Oh, that's going to be the only one. ”

"No! I feel as if I'm explaining to my wife who mistakenly thinks I'm on track. ”

"Well, aren't you supposed to tell that vampire about that? In my opinion, that monologue ghost will find my lab soon. Please, don't make a mess in my lab when the time comes, and if you want to quarrel, remember to solve it outside. ”

"Look, you're angry!"

"So what does my mood have to do with you?"

For a while, the rain was crushed by Aisa's high-pressure vision and attitude, and he found that it might be a bit dangerous to continue the conversation, so he decided to change the subject a little.

"That'...... What are you looking up right now?"

"Is it even my job going to be a hindrance now?"

"No, am I concerned about you?"

"Well, I'm looking into your legacy. ”

"Hey, don't kill me all of a sudden. ”

"I'm referring to your other identity, rain you don't actually have the self-consciousness of being considered a holy king. ”

"Well, not at all, it's just a coincidence that I got very little blood. ”

Elsa had no intention of continuing to interpret it dictally, and she then sent a report to Rain.

"Hmm, this is an incident from the ancient legacy. ”

"This time, the ancient heritage is called the Holy Relic Crystal, and according to research, it seems to have a bit of a source with the Holy Kings of the past. The hedron itself is an extremely unstable hazard that can cause an explosion if provoked. In fact, this has happened several times, and the fire at the airport in the previous period was also related to it. ”

"The fire at the airport?"

The first thing that Rain thought about was Duck himself, and when he was wondering if the two would have something to do with each other, Elsa didn't stop and continued to make examples.

"In fact, your friends have been in contact with this thing, and have been sent to the scene of the hedron recovery several times, and even fought with some unknown working machines. ”

Aisha projects the pictures of the scene of the crime one by one in front of Rain, who can see Fett, Naha, and Tempest fighting with some of the round-shaped mechanical battles.

"And I think you're also quite interested in the situation here, in the midst of the fight, this group of machines that we call "puppet mechs" know how to spread the effects of AMF particles to the Magior. ”

"AMF particles also showed up at the airport. ”

"Looks like you've been hooked up, the AMF particle is a new weapon in this day and age, but the existence of this thing has been around for a long time. ”

"The last time I saw AMF particles was during that Gerst rescue operation, and the group of people at that time were indeed protected by Suzaku. Is it "Crow" that is competing with you for the hedron?"

"Who knows, I'm not in charge of this part of the investigation. My job is to figure out what this holy relic hedron is used for. ”

Aisha was out of the way, and she was helplessly angry at her performance. However, at this time, a new guest arrived in the laboratory.

"So that's when it's our turn to come out. ”

"Wind?"

Rain looked at the guest suspiciously, who suddenly interjected into the conversation, and she came to Rain and Aisha very skillfully across the table and research equipment.

"Ah, didn't you hear Naba and Fett talk that night, Rain?"

"Stop, can you stop talking about that. ”

[I feel like someone behind me has been stabbed with a knife, is it my mistake!?] 】

The rain broke out in a cold sweat to get the wind into the main point, and she continued to talk with a meaningful smile on her face with a look of seeing through everything.

"I thought after all this that we were going to work so disjointed, that the investigation was not going to be effective or to eliminate the incident before it happened, so I just raised my mind to Karim and Krono. ”

"Do you want to organize a unit on your own?"

"Wouldn't it be much easier to have our own operational troops, and I was thinking that if we had moved a little faster, maybe a lot of people would have been saved. ”

"Hey, it's not easy. You are not like us, we are a special operation team outside the management framework, so we have a lot of freedom from certain official regulations, and to some extent, we are a small team that does not have to follow the rules. But it's a different story if you build it yourself. ”

"yes...... I had just been told a lot of uninexplicable things by Crono, and for a while my brain couldn't take a turn, but luckily I didn't have to check Lynvers to help me remember and analyze it, otherwise I would have been pronounced dead on the spot. ”

"You......"

Rain looked helplessly at the "tanuki" in front of her, feeling like a mischievous child.

"But I think this unit will be built in the end, because Carly's predictions seem to have started to attract the attention of the higher-ups, and this operation force should have a good chance of being built. ”

Storm kept saying as if he was cheering himself up, and Rain didn't have much to say about her self-building troops, after all, he had heard Nayeha say that it was one of her dreams.

"Yes...... Then please take care of me. ”

"Won't you come with the rain?"

"Gale...... Did you make a mistake or something, did you want to form a team to manage the Invincible Force?"

"Ah, I don't think so. ”

"You can really make it. ”

Rain began to worry about the future of the gale, but fortunately in the process of organizing the troops afterwards, the hurricane was still going smoothly, and of course the rain did not join in.
