Chapter 241 – The Last Hurdle

I left a throwaway line for my father and mother, and with a sense of accomplishment that everything worked out so well, I was smiling.

“Hmph… thou art in an awfully good mood, Earth Lagann.”

“Maybe.”

“Well, I too feel somewhat content…”

My father and mother had unbelievable expressions.

Well, if we fought properly, we would have lost, but we were able to escape like this after toying with them as much as we wanted.

Most of all, I, the son of my father and mother, am riding behind Jamdi’el, who was also their sworn enemy.

No wonder they had that look on their faces.

Well, the one who is smiling the most is…

『Fufufufu, but those two were most uncouth. If they were humans, they would be at the peak of their prime at their current age. Right? Child. Am I not their better? Say? Child.』

Seeing that my parents had completely fallen to the strategy that he had come up with, Tre’ainar still couldn’t contain his cheerful laughter.

Thinking back, ever since we met, this guy has always said, “I would have won one-on-one! I’m better.”. He was always so stubborn, so maybe he’s just happy to get rid of some of that resentment.

“But… they were strong. The boy’s parents. One could tell just by standing before them. Truly, I… if things didn’t go as intended… I doubt we could win in a proper fight.”

“Prince?”

“That was… the hero who defeated the Jamdi’el… and the Great Demon King, whom she once served… those two… we, of the Heavenly World, were taken in Paripi’s honeyed words to go to war.”

On the other hand, the prince looked back on what just happened with a wry smile and muttered with deep emotion.

『By a cowardly hand~』

While knowing that the Prince can’t hear his murmur, Tre’ainar uttered a retort. He’s always persistent on this point…

“Hmph. God … would not have been defeated. Of course, he was brought down by a cowardly move.”

“…… Jamdi’el?”

“That’s why… a new God… a god for the next generation must be born as soon as possible…”

Jamdi’el muttered while being a little annoyed by the prince’s words, and I thought I saw something murky on her back.

I guess it’s meant to put pressure on me, who’s riding behind her…

“I’m glad I was able to say hello to Earth’s father and mother. But, I would like to greet them more slowly and formally someday. Right…… if I can get Earth to like me and become Earth’s bride… that would be♪”

“Ugh…”

“Oh, and then I will have to call those two ‘Father-in-law’ and ‘Mother-in-law’, right?”

“C, come now, that part is still a long way off, so there is no need to think about it right now…”

“But just thinking about it makes me happy. It makes me want to do my best. Because, to do that…I have to work hard and grow up to make Earth like me… isn’t that right?”

Right? I’d be embarrassed if you showed me such an innocent smile, but…

“Lady Kron… I am impressed that thou have planned thy future so well. Well, for my part, Lady Kron officially greeting those two leaves me conflicted, but…”

“Hmm, don’t say that, Jamdi’el. Besides, if Earth and I get married, Jamdi’el… as my mother, you’ll be related to Earth’s parents, right?”

“……………… Hah?”

“And if I give birth to Earth’s child, Jamdi’el will also be a grandmother! With Earth’s parents, who will become grandparents, everyone will get along well… Hmmm~, it’s a wonderful future just thinking about it.”

Hmmm, those eyes are blazing… what is that…… it’s different from Shinobu.

Shinobu makes me feel some insanity and a sense that she will never let me escape from her future plans.

But Kron is really pure, how can I say it, she’s really good-natured, or rather, a natural airhead, and I don’t know how serious she is, but she seems really serious about this…

In conclusion, Shinobu and Kron, I can’t help but feel embarrassed by them!

“L, Lady Kron, so you call me thy mother… how discourteous of me… or rather, me, a g, gra, grandmother… t, this me…”

And Jamdi’el was also very shaken at Kron’s “grandmother” remark.

Well, I don’t know how old she is, but she looks so young, so it’s probably a shock…

“Fufufufu, is this really Jamdi’el… If only I could have shown this appearance to the boy’s parents, they might have believed me normally.”

“Wh, what the heck, prince…”

“Well, or perhaps…… it’s the boy that’s changed… in any case, thy power is also sealed, and if it is the current Jamdi’el… I suppose I’ll have no problem… releasing thee, thou may go far away as thou please.”

This time, Jamdi’el was released at the prince’s discretion.

The prince was taking all the responsibility on behalf of the Heavenly World, but he smiled as if somewhat satisfied that his decision was the right one.

But……

“Uh~…… no….. too far… not going… no way.”

“Ah…”

“You’re going away… no way!”

At that moment, a single weak, sad murmur brought me back to reality.

That’s right…

“Amae…”

“No… won’t let you, I won’t!”

Between me and Jamdi’el, she wrapped her arms and legs around my body and tightly clung to me, burying her face in my chest and groaning without showing her face to anyone. It was Amae, who I had taken away from my parents.

She chased after us, crying, but even after coming into our arms, she still cried, got angry, sulked, and whined, not convinced of anything.

“High Priestess, Goddess, and Older brother, don’t go. I want us all to be together.

“Amae… don’t cry…”

“Mu, nuh…”

“Amae… please don’t cry…”

“A, Amae, you shouldn’t cry, Amae is cute when she’s smiling.”

To Amae’s wish, I, Jamdi’el, Kron, and even Hilua can only give troubled responses.

“Nooooo! We have to be together!”

Not only is it sad, but the strength in the arms and legs that clung to me makes me feel the will to “never leave”.

But……

“Just being away for a while doesn’t mean we’ll never come back… me, Kron, and Jamdi’el.”

“…… n…… Gusu…… no!”

“Elder Sis Tsukshi, Karui, Mr. Machio, the sisters of the church… also, Mortriage’s crew already think of you like a little sister by now… even the guys in the dojo. You have a lot of people who take good care of you and love you―――― “

“But… but, Older Brother … don’t want… no…”

I didn’t get a chance to say goodbye properly, and my original goal was to only say goodbye to Amae properly, and that’s what I worked hard with my parents for.

But, persuading this spoiled child might be a more challenging final hurdle than outwitting father and mother, so I couldn’t help but chuckle, and Jamdi’el, Kron, and then Hilua and the prince were all looking at me with complicated expressions.

I mean, even Jamdi’el didn’t know what to say to deal with Amae…

Author’s Note

In this way, I will continue to spin the story while feeling that I will continue to a new world.
