fter Lucy-chan slept forever we went to bury her in the backyard of Erselica's mansion.

We didn't bury her in the front garden because we didn't want to step on her grave by mistake, but instead we buried her in the courtyard next to some flowers to remember her by.

I and everyone else grew fond of her. Erselica seemed to want to hold my hand as she too remembered when we buried the last pet we had.

But it would be rare for her to do that so it remained in that feeling.

I stood in the yard for a while as the others came in.

The feeling of losing something you love is really excruciating.

The last time I felt it was in my past life. In my new life I haven't experienced something like that until this moment.

Fortunately I didn't lose anyone I cared about during the war against the commonwealth, but others did lose their families and loved ones.

If... I had lost my father, or Lyle, or Bram. And even if Alisa or Airi had something happen to them, I don't think I know how I would

    Today it was my turn to meet with the six great nobles. I was thinking about the kind of attitude I would take before them. Erselica approached me with a cup of tea while I was reviewing various documents to give me a head start. Ixion who was next to me noticed something by one name. "Oh, isn't this the record of transactions with those merchants?" "He would keep the record of illegal transactions like these around?" "Maybe they didn't completely trust Derrick? He must have kept it as his ace up his sleeve when the time came that he needed it." "Hmm~." Apparently, that merchant even handed out the "orb" that was forbidden to be taken outside the country. Based on the supreme kingdom's law, this was undoubtedly a crime worthy for applying capital punishment. "This increased our blackmail materials." "Master, you are making a perverse expression." "My face has been like this since I was born, so people often don't understand me. That really makes me sad." When I laughed, Ers

    A new day had arrived. Classes would soon resume after the trouble Derrick caused. I was shopping with Lucy as Erselica and the idiots were busy cleaning, Ixion was helping them as he doesn't like dirty things. Lucy was showing me around the market the best places to buy meat, vegetables and fish. Quiet days like these are the best. "This seafood tastes delicious when you spread it with-." "Lucy, there you are!" Suddenly we heard a voice, Lucy flinched and the catfish-like seafood fell from her hands. Turning to see whose voice it was, she grabbed my shoulder. I squeezed my shirt as I could watch her as she trembled. "I found you finally, I had a lot of trouble at home after Derrick! But when I finally find you, you're with that foreigner." The person with the annoying tone was Jude who came running over. He probably had some spy watching us. Jude was looking at me with intensity. "You, foreigner, this is none of your business, stay away from my wife. Unlike Derrick I wil

    In Altfode Kingdom, many foreign officials, diplomats and wealthy merchants were in the capital doing various things. One of them, his name was Laurt; he was an important diplomat who had come to settle in his country's embassy in the kingdom. He was in an elegant carriage with the mark of his country on the doors. His appearance was that of a short, plump man with almost no hair on his head. He wore large glasses for a big nose. He was browsing the streets looking for something to eat. "No, that one's no good to me." By eating, he obviously meant laying hands on some poor girl. In his country it was normal to do this, so he figured if they tell him something he could get by cheaply. His eyes searched for perfect prey. "That one is too small." "She's too simple-minded." "Bah, that one is definitely useless." He was rejecting all the girls until he found his best prey. "Oh, that's the one!" Who at the same time was his worst choice. "Short hair, blonde, I can see from my pos

    This is just after the fight between Rudel and Derrick was over. It was the home of a young man named Warren. His parents' house was a court aristocrats, a Count family with no territory. Warren's parents... were holding their heads. "That stupid son has ruined it!" Warren's father, the count, shouted as he read the letter. "What happened?" His wife asked the way he was clutching his head while denying something. The count tousles his hair and looks at his wife with a pale face. "That boy... He has declared that he is abandoning the family for a woman!" His family had sent him to Aster to befriend Rudel. After the war, he had become an important figure. It was normal to want to relate to him. His parents expected their son to send them good news. What they received was a well-explained letter that read. "I am sorry. I found love where I least expected it. I know you will object, so I am cutting my ties with you." The parents were stunned at such idiocy they read. "PS: Clo

    "Lucy, if you have nowhere to go, and if you want to, you can stay here living as long as you want." "... Huh?" I was trembling as I heard something unexpected. After Jude threatened me with the necklace, I went to my younger sister, Diana, for help, but she refused. I had nowhere else to go so I went to Rudel-kun's house for some reason. After listening to him say crazy things, he said something strange. "Don't worry. I won't do anything strange to you. I'm harmless. You can't go home can you?" "... Y-Yes." A girl and a guy living together only means one thing. I've barely known him for two months and in that time he's seemed like a normal guy in part and really weird in the other part. "Good. You can take any unoccupied room. Do you have any clothes to change into?" "... No. I didn't bring anything." "Umm... I guess tomorrow you could go shopping for clothes." "But I don't have any money since I left my wallet at home." "No problem, I can lend you if you want." My back

    This month was a crazy one. Rudel defeated a group of mysterious guys, then took on Derrick without an armed unit, won him over. Then he went to demand compensation from the six great nobles for what happened. My heart beat as if I had run a marathon for hours. Today I was happy, as since I now live in Erselica-chan's mansion, every day is fun. Rudel and the boys get to fool around together. Yesterday they went fishing and the day before yesterday they went to a bar and got into a fight with the customers. But my reason for being happy is only one. There's a festival in town today! Something like this is rare since usually events like this are planned by the great nobles, but it seems like it's an event after learning that Derrick is imprisoned. But. "What do you mean you can't go?" Erselica-chan and her boyfriends... it's still weird to me to know that these guys, not counting Rudel and the servant Allen, are her love interests. It's amazing the free expression of love in

    Short Story ─ Night of the Vampires

    "This really sucks." My name is Rudel. A simple, generic high school student. One day upon returning home, my parents said to me. "Rudel! You've been selected to study at the prestigious Altfode Royal Academy!" "Are you excited? Mom is, she always thought you'd end up being a good-for-nothing like your older brothers." (Hey, you shouldn't tell your kids that.) (By the way, what the hell is the Altfode Royal Academy?) That's what I wondered before I went to sleep. When I woke up, I read the pamphlet my dad gave me. It said there that the Altfode academy is a very special private institution which only a certain number of the world's elite can enter. "Damn, that's impressive!" But that's not what's truly impressive. How the hell did I get selected? It says in the pamphlet that they give you a special exam to get in. But I never took one. How could I have gotten in? My parents don't question this. My older brother Lyle looked at me with a jealous expression on his face.

    My name is Rudel van Bradford and I am a reincarnate. Due to certain events in my life I went on a mission that my home, the Altfode Kingdom requested. I fought pirates and then one of them told me that there was a bounty on my head. So I immediately returned home to kick the ass of the idiot who played that tasteless joke on me. Although at this point I don't think it's a joke anymore, since... "Kill him!" "He who takes his head will be rewarded." "The Glaive Squad will be the one to kill him!" I am being attacked by knights from my own country. As soon as I reached one of the borders of the country, a fleet of seventy airships was waiting for me. I engaged them and the instant I did so, they fired their cannons at me. Battler is a bit damaged, it needs repairs. That's why I needed to go to my island so Bell could repair it.

    Author's Notes (Volume 7)

    Howdy my dear readers. Greetings once again from Siegburn. I am grateful to all of you for giving me your support and reading one of my works again. It makes me very happy. I'm sure many of you want to know what happened here, let's get to it. Starting with what most annoying questions ask. Why didn't Diana die? She deserved it! Certainly it is as you say, Diana should have died, indeed; she would die after being pierced in her stomach and upon meeting Lugh, the two would become one, thus achieving a new sacred tree. Why didn't I do it, you ask? The answer is even simpler. How I killed Diana, I would have had to kill Randolf as well. And nobody wants that! You see, at the time of drafting, Diana would die first, then Randolf instead of Romeo. His son would take over and Rudel would destroy the republic. Why did I change it? Because I thought of this. If there is no one to listen to the words of the tree, how will they collect the orbs? Who would take over Aster since n

    Today is a new day in my quiet life. Good morning world, my name is Rudel. I am a citizen of the Supreme Kingdom of Aster and this is my day to day life. ◇ To begin with, I am a reincarnate. I died and reincarnated in this world of fantasy and swords. My father came to this country years ago, he was in the care of the Rosenberg Household. He died years ago and asked them to take care of me. I was about to move to the city on my own when the head of the house, Randolf-san told me to stay. I was given my own room and also a baronet's title. Why so kind to a stranger? There are two answers. The first is unknown, perhaps my father and Randolf-san were great friends. The second is due to this boy. "Good morning Master Rudel. It's a beautiful morning, isn't it?" "Good morning Zero." Zero is an artificial intelligence I found in Aster's dungeon one day when I went to fetch a sapling as an offering to the sacred tree. I got lost and found this guy who is a giant airship. But d

The only thing that is known is that there is no trace of anyone involved. ◇◇◇ "Emm, testing. Testing." "Is this thing on?" A scientist turned on a video camera to record an experiment. A group of scientists were with him. "Professor, if you can't turn on a simple camera, you should leave it to someone else." "Silence insolent!" "It's just that I'm not used to using one." "Hahaha, the professor is an important scientist and can't turn on a camera." *Laughs* "Don't laugh at me! Old age is a cruel enemy to everyone."

    My name is Judah. I am an artificial intelligence created by humans to serve them. My main body is a large computer which can command from a secure location a state of the art warship. I was ordered to stay here waiting for orders. For that reason, I haven't moved in a long time. How long has it been? I do not know. I only know that the branches of the big tree that covers this territory have grown deep into here. It really is irritable to have to cut them off. ◇◇ The branches of this thing are really annoying. What's more, I'm surprised that it can grow vegetation. According to an analysis I did a while ago, there was a big toxic cloud surrounding the whole world. But after a while, little by little the toxins have started to disappear. As I was ordered to stay here waiting for orders, I can't do anything. I can only wait. They are really taking their time. Well, while I'm waiting. Should I order some things? Everything is so quiet. There's nothing weird on my rada

She changed into a business suit with pants included. She went downstairs for breakfast and there was Lutart. "Diana-sama, good morning." "Good morning, Lutart." Breakfast was served. She wanted to go back to the days where she had luxurious and exotic foods for breakfast. Now she could only find oatmeal, bread, juice and sometimes bacon with eggs. Lutart was the one who prepared it. Since there was no one else in this mansion. After being declared priestess, Diana avoided her execution, but with it Aster's hatred did not descend one bit.

    Interlude ─ Ixion Report (III)

    Night fell on the last day before Rudel and the others set sail for home. Ixion and Bell met on Aurora's deck to talk. "Were you able to find out anything?" "I'm afraid not. As we thought, Zero's systems were so badly burned out that I can't recover anything." "I see. That's unfortunate." Not long ago, Zero died. In doing so, he took some information with him to the grave. Bell asked. "Is it really that important to know about this Rugel guy?" Ixion felt more interest in the name "Rugel" than any other information. Who was Rugel? Why did Zero know him? What did Aster have to do with any of this? These are questions that will never be answered, since the only one who could answer them is no longer in this world. Ixion answered Bell. "The royal ship that was lost in the war. It contained a strange device. From the information you gave me, it was created by that Rugel guy." "That means Rugel used technology from ancient humankind to create it." "Would Zero have helped him?
