When the delphinium reached the first floor, it was even darker.

Only a dim yellow, old-fashioned light bulb with an unsettling shimmer...... It's a clean environment.

There are two doors leading to the outside, one closed and made of vague frosted glass; The other, though open, was still hung low with a black leather curtain in front of the outside light.

The glimmer of the morning leaked in from under the curtain. In the dim yellow light, it showed a cool and clean light blue.

As the delphinium approached the door, her ears moved slightly———— she heard Russell's voice.

She immediately put away her steps, tiptoed over, curiously pressed her head to the door, pressed her ear tightly against the door curtain, and shook it from time to time to make her ears stick tighter with the door curtain.

「…… Don't smash it, let's go! 「

"Wait a minute, wait until I'm done smashing this car before I leave......

She heard Russell's voice talking to a strange man.

For some reason, she was slightly relieved after confirming that the "boss" was a man.

But then the delphinium came back to her senses and wondered a little about herself: what are you nervous about here?

The next moment, she lifted the heavy curtain and walked out with her head bowed slightly.

Looking at the messy tables, the dim lighting, the various instruments and stages reserved for the band, and the wooden shelves filled with all kinds of liquor she didn't recognize.

There were also four huge, lying barrels, and next to them were a row of seven or eight smaller barrels, each with a faucet-like device. The delphinium was stunned for a few seconds before realizing ———— could this be the legendary bar

Immediately afterward, she saw what Russell was doing———

At half past five in the morning, there were hardly many customers left.

The men in the two corners were still patting each other's shoulders and drinking beer of different colors, while discussing something in a low voice; A man who seemed to have cried slept on a couch, covered with a leather coat of unknown men; A woman in high heels sits in a corner, drinking a sullen drink while her fingers flutter in the void at high speed like a piano.

The place that was supposed to be where the bartender was stayed, but it was empty.

Russell was sitting in another corner of the room with a strong man.

The strong man's physique is comparable to that of strangulation, and he will give people the feeling of "wronged him" when he sits in front of this machine———— he has to curl up and sit on a very low stone bench to fully see the screen in front of him.

In front of them was a huge machine with a joystick and a few buttons, and two synchronized pixel art graphics.

The delphinium barely managed to tell the difference, only to realize that this might be an older game.

The low refresh rate screen flashed and her eyes hurt a little, and she hurriedly reached out to cover her eyes.

"You're finally awake."

Russell's ears could easily hear the curtain being lifted, so he didn't even look back and casually called out, "You're sleeping, Flody."

"Then why did you knock me unconscious?"

Delphinium was a little dissatisfied: "I already feel that I have touched that wall."

It was only then that she suddenly remembered what had happened before she fell asleep.

She felt her psionic energy begin to expand, and the walls of Leviathan began to dissolve. Delphinium was pretty sure that she would be able to advance to level 9 redshift completely and safely.

————That's a ninth-level red shift!

Half a level higher than her titular uncle "Bad Day", the same level as Russell, the highest level psyker in this world!

Delphinium had been annoyed and frustrated that she was unable to help Russell. Now that she has a rare opportunity to improve her psionic level, she can be said to be quite looking forward to it.

"Because you're not ready."

Russell said, looking back.

He stretched out the index and middle fingers of his left hand, pointed to his eyes, and then put them together and pointed at the delphinium.

The corners of his mouth rose slightly, and a confident smile appeared: "I can see it clearly——— believe me.

"I guess you must have thought of 'them'. And use them as pedals for your understanding...... to understand your own psionic powers."

"-Hey, don't look back!"

The man next to Russell said dissatisfiedly, "You can talk to your wife if you like, but don't look back when you talk about yours - I can't stand your eldest brother!"

"Alright, alright, you shit......

Russell reluctantly turned around, and his nimble fingers jumped rapidly, rescuing the man's surrounded character.

The delphinium walked over, enduring the irritation of the eyes from the low refresh rate screen, walked up behind Russell and asked softly, "Am I not right?"

It's not right, because you're ignoring one thing......

Russell slouched backwards and arched his head back, resting his head on the delphinium's lower abdomen as usual.

In normal times, the delphinium would grab his ears and touch his chin and cheeks. Russell plays his game every day, and Delphinium plays Russell every day, and there is no conflict between each playing its own game.

「…… Ah, sorry. 「

But soon, he realized something, and sat up straight again and removed his head from the delphinium.

Then Russell coughed lightly and replied, "Because you only understand their 'high and right love,'

"But you have forgotten that in the coldness of correctness...... Inevitably, mixed with some kind of hatred. If you awaken in this way, your spiritual energy will grow crooked."

「…… Hate?"

"Hmm. Disappointment with the degenerate. Despair about the future. Resentment against this fate. Feel the gap between the past and the present. If they can have the emotion of "love", why can't they have "hate"?

"Of course the pools can be hated - the pools do have that motive.

"The unspeakable enemy has nothing to do with them, but they shall also be imprisoned together in this little cell; Human beings are so fragile and incompetent, making the same mistakes over and over again, and yet they are bound by the precepts and unable to use their power to cross the line. Like the most stupid student, he repeats it five or six times, fifteen or sixteen times, but he still can't remember it. The teacher had already taught until his blood pressure was high, but he had to be patient and continue to teach.

Since people have temper tantrums...... Why wouldn't they?"

「…… Are you saying there's an element of revenge in that, too? 「

The delphinium seemed to understand something.

She finally understood what she had done wrong with her—she saw dragons as "gods of gentleness in their rightness," but they weren't so holy and great.

They do watch over humanity and protect the world. But that doesn't mean they'll never get angry...... Of course, they will hold grudges, they will be disappointed, and they will lose their temper.

"Two equally right futures, and one of them can make people suffer. This is a relief for them.

"It's like when you play a 4X strategy game, you find that there are some 'Diao people' who are never satisfied, or not educated enough, or always put forward all kinds of sick demands, or simply support themselves. But as a 'player', you can't directly destroy or drive away this part of the population————

"Well, what if you could starve them to death by raising the tax rate, or kill them by causing an accident, or simply send them to a distant galaxy or town, let the enemy take them, and send an army to destroy them...... And why not?

"Don't forget, they were able to leave from the very beginning——— and compared to their former "partners", humans are so mediocre and incompetent.

"From that point on, they left here to farm. Isn't it a kind of escape because the heart is tired

Why did they make up their minds to live or die and not want to be kings again? I guess I was tired and disappointed in that 1,000 years.

"What they hold is indeed a sublime and right love from a higher perspective.... This kind of group love is indeed lethal to the individual. But this lethality does not come entirely from "love", it is also mixed with selfishness.

Now, you understand why I knocked you unconscious."

「…… I get it. 「

Delphinium nodded, reaching for her chest and closing her eyes to sink her somewhat restless heart again.

Her reason told her that Russell was right.

"Thank you."

"What's the ...... be polite to me?"

Russell sighed helplessly.

The man on the side had been listening quietly before.

Until then, he suddenly interjected in surprise, "What are you talking about...... Dragons?"

Delphinium was taken aback, stunned that he could understand———— and also realized that Russell had not avoided him, but had he not told him these things?

"Don't worry, Flody. This is my former landlord, my eldest brother, and my friend. Not an outsider.

"By the way, the room you slept in before was where my mom and I used to live...... You slept in my bed."

Russell chuckled and casually introduced, "His code name is Wolf Voice. He is a well-known rocker...... Have you noticed? He's an elf."

"———— in our old jargon, this profession should be called a bard."

Wolf Yin smiled and replied casually.

It was only then that the delphinium realized it in hindsight...... This man actually has long ears. Because he had a sports headband tied around his head. Reminiscent of an artist's, shoulder-length naturally curly black hair is quite fluffy, and the delphinium didn't even notice his ears at first glance.

This was the first time Delphinium had seen such a sturdy elf.

But at the moment, the delphinium was attracted to another thing:

"You and Alice...... Have you always slept in the same bed before?"

There was something strange about her face.

Isn't there just a bed in that room?

Russell choked, coughed twice, and then quickly explained, "I've lived in the school since I went to school, didn't I tell you before?"

"yes......

Delphinium nodded slightly, thoughtfully.

She reached out and put Russell's head on her stomach, unconsciously touching his chin.

Russell struggled slightly, but didn't break away. The Delphinch's hands have always been as strong as steel, and Russell did not dare to push too hard for fear of hurting the Delphinium.

「…… Hey, won't it hurt the baby if you keep pressing it like this?"

"Even if I have a small baby, then I have to take care of my big baby."

Delphinium said leisurely, with a firm attitude.

"Then tonight, we'll sleep together. I passed out before, and I didn't feel it when I slept - this time I have to sleep with you in my arms."

What kind of vinegar are you eating......

Russell muttered inwardly, but was very eager to survive and didn't say it.

He just whispered, "There are still outsiders here......

"It's fine, it's not very outside."

Wolf Yin asked seriously; "Brother and sister are a few months now?"

"It's just been a month."

Feeling that Russell's cheeks were a little warm due to shyness, Delphinium chatted generously with Wolf Yin.

"Then you have to take it easy. Not for at least three months."

"yes, we know."

"Actually, if you want to talk about it, it's best to take the next four months at a leisurely pace. Of course, Big Brother is just a suggestion......
