Chapter 213 Friggin’
Been out town the entire week. Managed to finish a chapter with phone though. It's hard translating on phone since well I use dictionary a lot. Just got home today and edit some stuff and upload.
Anyway the laptop problem that it can't charge solved itself somehow. The condition was it always has the battery image to be full, it can't be charged when displayed as full it seems. So when the battery got reduced for some reason, that's when it could actually charge. So, maybe you shouldn't charge the battery till full with old and low quality battery when you don't plan on using it soon.
Chapter 213 Friggin’
No one realized it happened. Could it be she’s playing hide and seek somewhere over there?
“Cosmos...... Cosmos, what’s wrong? Where are you? Come to papa and mama!” (Eljela)
“Cosmos! Where are you!” (Ura)
“UGAAAAAAAAAAAAH, shit heads, search carefully! Where is she, where is she!” (Chirotan)
Despite there’s some shadow from the rocks, our surroundings are desert. There’s no place to hide.
Then, where? Where is Cosmos who was still here just a moment ago?
How did this happen without us noticing......
“Could it be, that machine monsters just now......”
Lagaia’s words made us remembered something.
Yes, at that time, when something like that appeared before us Cosmos’ voice wasn’t heard.
We told Eljela to hide because it’s dangerous but what about Cosmos?
At that time, all of us spontaneously turned our attention to the machine monsters.
“Was it Mannie?” (Rumba)
If Mannie’s warp was used? Certainly she can appear instantly, take Cosmos and escape right after.
But it wasn’t Mannie. Mannie is always facing Roa and the Holy Knights.
There’s also no condition that allowed her to snatch Cosmos.
Then what?
“Wait everyone, look at this!” (Barnando)
At that moment, Barnando who searched at the surroundings seemed to have discovered something and pointed to the ground.
Over there, while it looked as if has already been covered by sand, something bulged looking as if has been already dug up.
He pushed away the bulge slowly, revealing a hole that around two humans could pass in.
“A hole........”
“Could it be, she fell into this hole?”
Fell? No, wrong..........!
“It’s those guys!”
At the same time we remembered about those guys.
Those bastards with drills......
“Kuh...... I will look inside! ............., this is........” (Lagaia)
“What’s in there, Lagaia-kun! Is the hole keeps continuing?” (Arusha)
“Not good, the path is closed midway.” (Lagaia)
We’re blocked in all directions.......... shit!
“But, what’s the meaning of this? Why are they aiming for Cosmos-chan?” (Barnando)
“Yes. This is unnatural. It’s as if, they made the machine monsters as baits to lure our attention away, and at that moment they went and kidnapped Cosmos...... aren’t their objective is to crush the World Alliance and the Demon Alliance?” (Arusha)
“That’s right-zou. With this it’s as if they’re planning to abduct Cosmos right from the beginning-dazou.” (Kaizer)
Why did they aim for Cosmos?
However, it’s something that could be understood if one were to think about it slightly.
By kidnapping Cosmos, they will turn her into a negotiation card against the sky people and the Great Human Alliance Army?
No......
“The Crest Eyes...........”
With the words Kishin muttered, the answer to all questions descended upon us.
“Wait a minute, Kishin-shi. Do you mean Velt-shi’s daughter has Crest Eyes?” (Lucifer)
“Yes. The cute girl has awakened the Crest Eyes of Creation.” (Kishin)
“Crest Eyes of Creation? Just like the Sublime Magic Sky Emperor Ligantina?” (Jarenga)
Since it was something that didn’t need to be said to someone we just met, we stayed silent at the previous meeting but as expected that truth is something that dealt damage to Lucifer and Jarenga.
“But you see, the timing when Cosmos used those eyes was right before coming to this place, wasn’t it! How did they figure it out despite it went like that?” (Althea)
“No, Althea-san. The moment Cosmos awakened them, there were many people there. There’re also...... Love and Peace people there.” (Barnando)
“I see. So, from that information they got to know the information about the li’l Princess-chan.” (Jackpot)
This is so unimaginable. I didn’t attach that much importance to it but the world managed to perceive that.
“No..... NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO! Cosmos! My Cosmos!” (Eljela)
“Imperial Princes s Eljela, please calm down. Cool your head! They shouldn’t have gone that far!” (Arusha)
“No, Cosmos! Cosmos! No! NO---------! Cosmos!” (Eljela)
The scarce nature of Cosmos’ Crest Eyes. And more than anything, rather than trying to capture Ligantina with their whole strength, it’d be way more easier for them to capture Cosmos to get those eyes instead.
“S, stop fucking around! This is the first time I’m feeling of wanting to kill someone so much, including the previous life.” (Velt)
I should still be able to make it.
I still haven’t fully healed? Like I care.
“Velt-sama!” (Eljela)
“No, Velt-kun! The injuries of your internal organs are still haven’t...... you were also bleeding so much.” (Arusha)
“Velt, calm down!”
“Velt-kun, we will definitely rescue Cosmos-chan! Endure it here!” (Barnando)
“I knew how painful it is-zou. That’s why, you need to calm down so that Cosmos-chan could certainly be saved-zou! From the legends, it is said that if the holder of Crest Eyes were to die it’s power will disappear, it will turn into normal eyes-zou. Cosmos-chan is absolutely fine-dazou.” (Kaizer)
Are you kidding me? Endure it?
“Blood? Internal Organs? Stop pulling my leg! I don’t put this life for the sake of the world or justice, if I don’t put it to use for Cosmos then where I the hell I’m gonna use it on!” (Velt)
Like hell I can endure it!
“We still can make it. Currently me don’t have the power for you to recover with, but me can run with you together.” (Kishin)
“Dat’s right. Aight, let’s go.” (Jackpot)
At that moment when everyone was trying to stop me, those two hold me by the arms and shoulders, supporting me to go forward.
“Kishin-kun! Jack-kun, what are you thinking! Stop doing stupid things! We’ll rescue Cosmos with just us!” (Arusha)
“Hey, stop there. Arusha. Stop doing stupid things? Me three are stupid so no problem.” (Kishin)
“I gonna do da same thin’ if I got ma self kids, It’s sumthin’ like dat.” (Jackpot)
Geez, it makes me so glad they understand me in this kind of situation.
But I won’t say thanks alright? If our position were reversed I’d also do the same thing.
No need to say thanks for things to be grateful for, that’s how we are.
That’s why, in exchange for that thanks, there’s only one thing that need to be said.
“Let’s go.” (Velt)
“Yes.” (Kishin)
“Ou.” (Jackpot)
With that one sentence, we broke into a run.
Even if from that hole blood were to spew out, or even innards were to be blasted out of it, it got nothing to do to us who are like insane people coming to die.
“Kishin! Jack! It must be Mannie. We’re gonna freaking kill that Mannie.........” (Velt)
I ran forward, with the help of those two.
“Tch...... Velt trash........”
At that moment, along with the sound of clicking tongue, someone appeared and came running to right beside us, it’s Yuzuriha.
“Don’t run. Get on.” (Yuzuriha)
“Yuzuriha......” (Velt)
“I won’t forgive you if you die without returning the favor.” (Yuzuriha)
......Haha....... the dragon looked sideway with her tone still merciless........
“Nahahahaha, .......yer lookin’ shy, Velt.” (Jackpot)
“Big brother! What are you grinning for! Besides you can turn into a dragon yourself!” (Yuzuriha)
“Nah, well, I just fought Jarenga-han, it ain’t be good turnin’ into dragon now.” (Jackpot)
“Kuuuuuuuuuh, weakling brother.” (Yuzuriha)
I’ll pat you as much as you want later!
“I’ll go too, Velt-sama!” (Eljela)
“Naturally. Since she is Velt’s daughter then she’s also my step daughter. I’ll stick to my husband’s foolishness.” (Ura)
“Well, she’s also my niece.” (Lagaia)
“It is worthy of punishment for laying their hands on such a small girl. I will lend you aid with this sword arm of mine.” (Barnando)
“Seriously? Seriously? Aah, geez, seriously now. I mean, I don’t wanna be on charge with sitting the house at a place like this, it’s better if everyone go together right?” (Althea)
“Good grief....... there’s no helping it-zou.” (Kaizer)
“GURAAA, bring this great me with you, I still can move my neck! I’ll bite to death incoming enemies!” (Chirotan)
They have taken refuge to a safe area but that option is no more.
We ride on Yuzuriha’s back, flying into the inferno of the current world’s most severe battle.
“Don’t pay attention to those other junks! Our aim is Mannie......” (Velt)
Even with my consciousness as if about to be snuffed out, I bit into my lips to maintain it.
We must not let that woman escape.
We’ll capture her here!
“Me will be road making!” (Kishin)
“Get yer asses away! Velt whole family gonna pass!” (Jackpot)
The machine monsters are standing in our way.
Their chests are equipped with missiles, in exchange for their sharp claws, vulcan guns were installed.
They’ve noticed our presence, and the moment they confirmed us as enemies, those weapons were aimed at us and were fired.
“Hard Rock n’ Roll!” (Kishin)
“Ya aren’t Ya-san, like hell I’mma scared shitless with yer guns!” (Jackpot)
TL note: seems Ya-san here is Yakuza
The magic barrier that Kishin deployed cut off all the attacks that have substance to them unilaterally.
“........, Shit!” (Kishin)
“Kishin-kun!” (Arusha)
However, seemingly exhausted because of the fight against Lucifer, he got a bit dulled.
I need to use a bit of my strength too!
“Fuwa Fuwa......” (Velt)
At that moment, the blood inside my whole body took a reverse flow and vomited out of my mouth.
“Kuh....... sh.......... shit! Why now when I need to act the most!” (Velt)
Regardless of my will, I can’t put any strength. My whole body is collapsing.
Why the hell the thing I should have gotten on my hands is getting away from me now!
Moreover, why the hell at this kind of time!
No matter how many times I’ve fought against the Demon Kings and Heroes, I still ended up unable to move at this moment, so what the hell are fights those good for!
“Velt-sama! We can move while you’re being healed, rest for a bit more!” (Eljela)
“Yeah, leave the incoming enemies to us, Velt!” (Ura)
“With you just being here, the girls who love you will become the strongest after all!” (Arusha)
At this kind of time, the ones who keep the fire up for me who has turned so weakened that as if I my life was about to be extinguished are, to think that it’s them.
“Please. I don’t object you to put your life for her. But, if you..... if something were to happen to you Velt-sama...... me and Cosmos will.....” (Eljela)
“Eljela.......” (Velt)
“Why do you think you have several wives for. When the husband can’t move, the wives will cover his part too.” (Ura)
“Ura.....” (Velt)
“While she is born from different mother, she is still my daughter you know? Please don’t think that there’d be no one else around when you can’t move yourself, okay?” (Arusha)
“Arusha....” (Velt)
Well, this sure is a popular and envious guy. Though, it’s myself.
“Kyouzou Uzoumuzou!” (Kaizer)
TL note: 巨象有象無象(Gigantic Elephant Horde)
“Deep Darkness!” (Lagaia)
“Shooting Star!” (Rumba)
“Zankuu Dairessen!” (Barnando)
TL note: 斬空大烈閃 (Space/Air Cutting Great Intense Flash)
As if saying don’t forget about us, these dependable guys moved.
For the sake of rescuing my, our daughter.
However at that time, something strange happened in the sky above the battlefield.
“O, ooh! Those guys are amazing!”
“Those monsters that we can’t do anything against are........”
“Who are those guys!”
For us, this is for Cosmos’ sake.
However, for the Great Human Alliance Army who are being exterminated one sidedly......
“Princess Arusha...... and, that guy, the one Prince Roa defeated.”
“I can’t believe this, having fought so fiercely against Princess Forna, General Tyler, and even Prince Roa and now.......”
“Those guys...... those guys are!”
Amidst despair, a single......
“Hey......”
“.....Aah!”
“We’re......!”
Ray of light!
“These pieces of junk! Don’t point those scrap of lead to my husband! I will put you all into trash disposal!”
The dance of golden came upon view. So that woman also got revved up.
“All, ...............All troops! Follow them!”
At that moment, someone’s voice was heard to the whole army.
The voice that I used to hear when I was a child, nostalgic voice.
“Shout-sama!”
It was Shout.
Despite his unit has already got half destroyed he raised his sword into the sky, for the sake of encouraging the human race who are already scattered and about to be mowed down.
“Inside this net of flames, it will be hard for us to secure a path outside! Then, we should go back to the starting point of this war! The one who is the mastermind of all that happened now, Mannie Mouse is right in front of us! Our means of survival is ahead of us!” (Shout)
For them now, thinking of me as ally or enemy is trivial.
Having forcefully instructed the theory of the enemy of one’s enemy is an ally, he made judgement as a commander that they should ride on this small wave.
“So......... Forward! ............with him......... With them........” (Shout)
Who are we? Heroes? The braves? Ally of justice? Wrong.
“They are.......!” (Shout)
So, who are we? Who are they to follow after?
Shout’s words were clogged up, as if trying to put into words of what we are.
However.....
“Eheheheheheheheheheehehehehe. A~ah, I knew you’d be getting in the way~, Velt-kun..........” (Mannie)
At that moment, the hair rising voice was transmitted to my whole body from the air.
She...... Mannie....... I untentionally bite my lips.
Bitch, you’ve done something on the top list of must not do things in this world.........
“What’s worst is that you have Kishin-kun and Kaizer-kun as your ally, it’s super unfair~........ now now........ I need to use the special unfair technique for this okay? Ufufu...... well~ then, how things go over there~?” (Mannie)
There! Mannie!
“Mannie!” (Velt)
I looked up and shouted to Mannie who is floating in the sky.
However, despite her noticing me Mannie doesn’t turn to look.
She put her finger on the head of her costume, seemingly muttering something.
“Ah, hello~, it’s Mannie♪Un, how’s over there? Hmh hmh, I see, heeeeeeh~” (Mannie)
What? Speaking to herself?
“Heeh~, so that’s how it is. So those two ended up crushing each other by some good coincidence. Then you got an easy victory there? Un un, yeah betcha♪It’s really surprising huh~, they do war above the sea, and when both of them were about to be exhausted a giant tsunami came along with an attack from the deep sea, followed by the raid of the machine monsters right? Did you able to deal with the other guys~? Hmh hmh, I see I see, ehehehehe” (Mannie)
No. It seems she’s talking to someone...... is it telepathy?
She also could do something like that?
Still, if that’s the case just who is she talking with?
“Eros-chan and Kiroro-chan’s whereabouts are unknown? The Six Great Ogre Demon Generals is half destroyed, so what about the cyclopes? Hm~m. Un, it’s alright. After all, [those two] are over there, though it’d be impossible to make it that perfect isn’t it♪Anyway, if those two were to fight which one would win? Eh, they will strike simultaneously against each other, ended in draw with both of them on the verge of dying? Iyaaa~n, so you mean you butted in when they were at that state~, so heartless~. But, I wanna see it really~, that battle of the Dreadnought Demon King VS the Wonder Beast.” (Mannie)
TL note: hmm kinda wanna say this again 狂獣怪人(kyoujuu kaijin) maybe could be translated as mysterious insane beast.
From what I can guess by their conversation, it’s something related to Jigoku and Makai?
Which means, could it be, that woman! She’s perpetrating something on the other battlefield too?
But over there, there are also Demon Kings of the strongest class and the Four Heavenly Beasts Demihumans including Maman right?
Even if they were to interrupt both of the troops when they’re pulverizing each other, wouldn’t they capable of going against those machine monsters instead?
“Well, setting that aside~, how about those two right now? Eeeeeh, kya--------h! Amazing amazing! Your evil magic is in – vin –cible? Eh, your limit is three people? Geez~, despite you can do anything as you pleased with those two, to think that you’d feel dissatisfied with the limitation, how stoic~. Maybe Love can learn a thing or two from you♪” (Mannie)
It was at that moment.
When Mannie was talking via telepathy, she changed her line of sight.
What laid at the end of that isn’t Roa, Tyler and others who are being surrounded by the machine monsters, neither with World Alliance.
“Then, it’s fine even with just one guy, bring whichever of them with teleport here. ..... with me~, Love~, and that one~, we could really mess up with you, you know~............................ I expect you to kill that annoying guy.” (Mannie)
This is the first time I heard it, Mannie’s voice was cold with no intonation in it, and along with that she turned her gaze towards us.
No, not us. That’s, she’s looking at me!
This is, she has a grudge towards me? Also, who did she talk with? Teleport?
What is she planning........
“Eh..................................................”
At that moment, amidst this chaotic battlefield, a shadow stands in the way of us who are heading straight to Mannie.
It wasn’t a machine monster nor the drill bastards, but a single demihuman.
“No way........................”
Moreover, it’s not any ordinary demihuman.
A demihuman that we, and the whole world knew.
“Why!” (Velt)
While using the exceedingly sexy clothing of net tights and black leotard, the body is like a giant.
Black skin, huge mouth, a skinhead baldy.
Small ears on the head.
With grotesque appearance, a demihuman of hippo tribe.
And then, that hippo, even with having confirmed our appearance, his eyes seemed blanked out and puzzled.......
“Lady Bouoi!”
TL note: レディ暴威 kinda a pun with ladyboy ig. The words could mean Lady Tyranny. Or Ready instead.
The wave of force that was unleashed at the same time as that fist was punched blew all of us away and stopping our advance.
We who ride on Yuzuriha’s back were thrown down simultaneously and tumbled down on the desert.
“............What?” (Kishin)
“....................... what a power-dazou.” (Kaizer)
“Who is dis guy now?” (Jackpot)
Even Kishin, Kaa-kun, and Jack weren’t exceptions.
This in it’s truest sense meaning that the one who stopped our advance is someone of real skill, and furthermore he is someone that’s so unexpected to us that even we doubted his existence with our eyes.
Amidst that, as we rouse up our battered and pained body, Althea shouted ahead of anyone else.
“Why...........................Maman!”
Maman. Yes, he’s Maman.
The parent who raised Althea, it’s been two years since I met him for me.
One of the Four Heavenly Beasts Demihumans, the strongest okama in the world.
Looking as if having gone through a harsh fight, his body is covered with great many injuries, blood oozing out from his many veins.
His eyes and expression empty looking aberrant for some reason, he isn’t in normal condition.
And he also didn’t react to Althea’s voice.
“----............exterminate.” (Maman)
“Eh.........Maman? What, are you doing! It’s me! Me! It – is – me!” (Althea)
“..............Exterminate!” (Maman)
“Ah.........”
At that moment, Yubamensch once again took a step forward and held aloft his fist.
Watch out!
He’s about to strike
“Hey, Althea! Stop!” (Kishin)
“Don’t do it-zou, Yubamensch!” (Kaizer)
By a hair’s breadth, Kishin and Kaizer were able to stop Maman’s fist.
However, both of their expressions are in anguish, their feet are digging in into the desert.
This is no joke. Are you fucking serious? Was Maman actually try to punch Althea ?
“Ma, Maman............” (Althea)
Althea collapsed to her knees and trembled because of the shock. Of course she would.
Because even I have already seen the relationship of those two who went beyond race and blood tie.
Seeing things like now, it felt like my chest was being punched.
And......
“What the hell’s happening with you! Oi Maman! Bastard, the hell are you doing! And more than anything, did you about to hit Althea!” (Velt)
But, my voice didn’t reach him.
Maman only breathed as if he’s suffering, looking unable to contain his incited state and could go on a rampage at a moment’s notice.
However, over there, there’s something that I can notice.
What is that? What is that tattoo like crest that extended across his entire body? It wasn’t there before right?
“Aha, ehe, ehehehehehehehe! It is an evil magic that even the holy magic doesn’t have counter for..............” (Mannie)
At that moment, Mannie descended next to Maman, appearing with a pleased looking smile.
“Mannie! What the hell is going on here!” (Velt)
“What did you do to Yubamensch? And what did you mean with evil magic?”
We spontaneously put ourselves on guard, my feeling of wanting to freaking kill her and take back Cosmos that I have up till a moment ago instantly went away from my head.
And then, Mannie giggled as she laughed, she put her hand on Maman’s shoulder who is trembling in excitement and said to us.
“Just like by gathering the six users of the holy magic, the memories of three people in the world could be erased, by cooperating together in the magic, an even more effective magic could be exhibited. By using the brainwashing magic of the evil magic....... in cooperation, we could control even the Demon Kings and the Four Heavenly Beasts Demihumans you know♪ Well, since he was in near death state because of the war it made it easier to control him though♪” (Mannie)
Brainwash!
“Wait, then, my Maman is!” (Althea)
“Ehehe, how unfortunate~, Althea-chan. Your Maman is now............has become Mannie and co’s Maman♪” (Mannie)
I’m..........
“I’m gonna kill you bitch!” (Velt)
My injuries and shits don’t matter. I seriously will kill that bitch even a second faster.
I was so maddened that I’m willing to go over the borderline that I have never stepped on before.
However,
“OOOOO, Fuwa Fuwa Laser!” (Velt)
“Iyan♪” (Mannie)
The moment the laser was about to touch Mannie, it was erased.
“Ehehe, useless useless. As long as it came from magic power it can’t be used on Mannie you know? Does it even have any meaning when you’re already blood soaked like that? Don’t you think it’s better if you just keep quite like a good boy~?” (Mannie)
“.........Then I’m gonna make the inside of that costume into bloody mush! I’m gonna make you puke as you cry and freaking crush you into pulp!” (Velt)
“Geez, so scary~, Velt-kun. If you can say that.............. then go ahead and try.” (Mannie)
Yeah, I’m gonna do it. With my trembling hands I grasped onto my batons, there’s nothing else but Mannie that could enter my view now.
“Kishin, Kaa-kun, you two hold back Maman! The rest, let’s kill that bitch!” (Velt)
“Understood-zou.” (Kaizer)
“Fuuh. With this exhausted body, it will be very hard.” (Kishin)
“Rumba, you stay with Althea. We can’t let her join the fight now!” (Ura)
“Barnando, ya also stick with her. Us is already enough!” (Jackpot)
Be it World Alliance, Demon Alliance, or the machine monsters, there’re none of them that have problem with us beating up this bitch.
I won’t show any mercy to take back Cosmos.
No matter what happened after this we will.....
“Gravity Press!”
However, what we didn’t predict is........
“What...........”
Something put pressure on us who are about to rush forward, this is super gravity.
Towards this totally unexpected magic attack, we all were pressed down into the sand, unable to move our body at all.
“Wat, wait wait! What the hell’s with this magic!” (Jackpot)
“Th, that’s............ what’s the meaning of this? Who are messing around at a time like this!” (Velt)
“...........More than anything, For it has to be under this kind of situation........ this is nothing to scoff at.”
When we somehow moved up our neck, a shadow slowly descended in front of us.
We knew very well who that person is. However, while we knew him but this kind of action is out of our expectations.
What the hell is he thinking?
“Mackey! Bastard, where have you been! I mean, what are you doing! You’re not saying you got brainwashed too, right!” (Velt)
Did he got brainwashed? In response to that question, Mackey smiled miserably.
“I’m sorry, Velt-kun.......... everyone....... friggin’ sorry......” (Mackey)
It was an expression of Mackey that we have never seen before. It was so fleeting, full of apology, an answer that he came up at the end of bitterness.
However, that also means that Mackey wasn’t brainwashed like Maman.
“Mackey-kun........ what are you thinking........ at a time like this, what are you thinking Mackey-kun!” (Arusha)
“...........Mackey....... Yes, Arusha-chan, I’m....... Mackey........ but also, Love.” (MackeY0
“Haah? What do you mean with that, explain it properly!” (Arusha)
“Did you remember, everyone? In the Smokey Island we made a clear cut with our past lives, and decided that we’re going to continue living as a person born in this world and from this world.......... that’s right...... so........ I have to do this.” (Mackey)
“You have to do it like this you said......... hey, what are you...... I don’t understand what are you trying to say here!” (Arusha)
“.........I might didn’t care about this had I lived as Kagami but....... As Mackey, to live as Love.... I have a responsibility that I can’t put down no matter what...... everyone......” (Mackey)
I don’t understand what Mackey is saying and what he’s suffering in.
However, I could understand this.
Mackey has.......
“Mackey............ bastard!” (Velt)
“Friggn’ sorry, Velt-kun. I’m........ going with Mannie-chan.” (Mackey)
“! Mackey, bastard he betrayed us!” (Velt)
Mackey has separated from us, he will lead a life completely different from us and will confront us as an enemy.
Like hell we could accept that!
“What’s wrong with you, Mackey-kun!” (Barnando)
“Stop messin’ around, are ya ‘nderstand wat yer sayin’!” (Jackpot)
“Now......... really, what the hell with all of this! Maman turned like this and now Mackey too..... seriously what’s going on!” (Althea)
“Don’t joke now...... stop joking around, Mackey-kun! We......... haven’t we finally took step forward! But now, why!” (Arusha)
This isn’t any kind of acting.
“So you’re serious........ bastard......” (Velt)
“Velt-kun....... everything...... has turned useless now...... but, I have to do this. .....I don’t mind if you resent and kill me.....” (Mackey)
I can see conviction in his true feelings, those were the words of parting from Mackey.
“Then, bye bye, guys. Tell Sensei to give up on me........” (Mackey)
Even as he understood all of our sentimental anger and persuasion, he still let his resolve and determination to separate from us to be felt from him.
“Ahahahahahahahahahhahahahahahahah! Ahahahahahahahaha, Velt-kun idiot stupid! It’s your fault that the order of things went out of hand~! But you see, I was surprised. Despite Mannie thought that Mackey will make a don’t care face when she explained the [situation], the current Mackey answered with so much serious look on his face! And this seemed to be thanks to Velt-kun! That’s why, I’m feeling thankies thankies to Velt-kun!” (Mannie
Mannie still laughed in a good mood. Her situation? So that’s the reason Mackey betrayed us?
And despite he previously able to ignore her, as the result of having spent time with me, he was distressed and ended up betraying us?
“Mackey. What is that..... choice that you won’t choose had you were still Kagami all about?” (Velt)
“Velt-kun. I’ll at least have sympathy........ and properly send back Cosmos-chan healthy, so don’t worry.” (Mackey)
“.........Like hell I can......... stop messing around........ why...... didn’t you speak your mind openly with us....... that day, when we got to know about Auriga, what was the meaning of you who speak weakly and lay bare your feelings all about?” (Velt)
“That was, the true feelings and whining of Kagami. And right now, I’m different. That’s all there is to it....... Velt-kun.........” (Kagami)
He’s serious. Not just separating himself from us, but taking steps further to fight us, and even resolved to kill us.
Furthermore, he has this expression of extreme sadness that’s unimaginable coming from this degenerate.
All while he doesn’t want to come clear with the reason for that happened......
“Haah...... Mackey............ don’t you have a final world to say?” (Velt)
“Friggin’.” (Mackey)
“I see........ understood. But you see, like hell we will stay silent and let you do something to Cosmos. .......You understand that right?” (Velt)
“.......Yeah.” (Mackey)
It’s as Althea said.
Just a moment ago I married Ura and then hardened our determination for the future, so why have things turned like this?
I don’t know the reason but, it’s so frustrating that water slightly spilled out of my eyes.

Hmm, been reading Mother of Learning from Royalroad these few days. I'd say the writing style kinda uh well, putting me off. The author put most of characters way of speaking to have this similar style to them, it extended to narratives and monologue too. Attributing it to a similarity of dialect since the part of story I read takes place in the same territory? If that's the case then the story narrative outside of characters conversation won't have the same way of writing too.
Thanks for the chapter!

For your review on Mother of Learning, I think thats pretty accurate. Not gonna lie, I think thats also what made me put down the series twice because its hard to click in my mind
Its until I am a bit further where all the elements begun to show individuality, connect that the world becomes complete and become 'alive'.
What chapter are you at now?
I'm at chapter 37 rn. Each chapters are quite long. Well the story seems focused on time loop, I'm recently read Soldier Can't Protect Dungeon , the story also about time loop, so well maybe gonna drop it myself too. I prefer wide unconfined adventure after all
DeleteHope you will pick it up again one day
Deleteand if you do, try starting from 20-ish chapter(?) and just carry on with the stories
Mother of Learning is also an unconstrained adventure, adventure around the world in search for hints and how to survive
:D
Hmm i get a different feeling from the story tbh. The time loop itself is a limitation for me, at first i thought it'd be just a part of the story but been very long now that i kinda guess it'd only end when the novel end
DeleteAs I am a bad writer and someone who's bad in conveying their thoughts(gets jumbled everywhere with no conclusion)
DeleteMother of Learning will explain the time loop in a very careful manner, readers with more thought would have thought of the possibility and guessed it. Author does scatter hints here and there naturally and guides the reader to its adventure and mystery
hmm, true that. but well, I'm not very good at reading those subtle hints
