Chapter 267
CHAPTER 267 – BACKWARD COMPATIBILITY
In a world where magic exists, miracles seem to be within arm’s reach .
Because magic exists, “ordinary” supernatural phenonon can be explained just by rely saying it’s done with magic .
Most of the people in this world can tell that . Even commoners can use magic, so whether it is magic or not is easy for the crowd to understand .
That’s why things that not done through magic,
Things that not done through using magic powers, they are seen as miracles .
lissa’s deeds are an exampleーーand so as what Caroline did right now .
People who are weaker than Eleanor cannot sense her powers, so what they could see is only the results .
As such, they would recognize it as God’s miracle .
☆
In the town of Ainon, in Caroline’s room .
A small space deep within the church is her room .
There are barely any furnishings, most of it was a table, a chair, a bed, and the pillows and beddings on top of it .
Although it’s not in tatters, it’s old .
All of the items clearly looked like they’re worn out .
After being led to that room, I removed my camouflage aura and showed my appearance along with Hikari .
「Oh God!」
「Enough of the God stuff . I’m Yuuki Kakeru」
「Yuuki……Kakeru?」
「Yeah, you can call whichever one you want」
「……I can’t call you, God?」
Caroline stared at with an upward gaze .
Her eyes were that of pleading .
『She completely recognized you as her God . What are you going to do?』
I flicked Eleanor’s blade with my finger seeing her grinning in my head .
「Alright, that’s fine too」
「Thank you God!」
「Good for you, Onee-chan〜」
Hikari told her with a smile, but Caroline only tilted her head .
「You can’t really understand Hikari’s words huh」
「I’m sorry」
「No, it’s not your fault……hmm」
I thought for a second . I wondered if she really understands only my words .
I wanted to check that, so I took out my Warp Feather from my Different Dinsion Warehouse .
「Grab onto , Caroline . Hikari, you too」
「Eh? Ah, yes」
「Un!」
I warped with the two who had different reactions .
The place I warped to was a lavish and wide room, completely different to Caroline’s room .
It’s a room inside rcouri’s palace . In there was Helene who is wearing her princess dress .
Caroline’s eyes popped out in amazent because of the warp that shouldn’t exist in this world .
「Kakeru-sama? What’s the matter?」
On the other hand, Helene noticed us and didn’t move an eyebrow even after we suddenly appeared because she already knows this ability of mine .
As usual, she is enveloped by her royal aura .
There are also maids helping Helene change her attire .
I thought that maybe she’s about to go to a eting .
「I want you to help with sothing for a bit . I won’t trouble you」
「Please do as you wish」
Helene nodded without showing any hesitations .
The surrounding maids read the atmosphere and took a step back .
「Caroline . Can you understand what she’s saying?」
「Uhm……」
「It is an honor to et you . You are the “Child of God” Caroline-sama, right? I am Helene Teresia rcouri」
As expected of Helene . It looks like she already knew about Caroline .
「Uhm……sorry, God……」
「It’s fine . Sorry to trouble you, Helene」
「It is nothing……as expected of Kakeru-sama」
I said goodbye to Helene who seed to have noticed sothing, and this ti, I warped to Rica’s place .
In Calamba’s palace, Rica’s harem, the Rose Garden .
Rica was there combing the hair of a lovely girl .
The girl’s beautiful and glossy long golden hair was being combed, making even more beautiful .
「Kakeru!」
Rica noticed and stopped her hand . She stood up and ran to .
「Did sothing happen? You didn’t tell you’re coming today」
「My bad, I just wanted you to help with sothing」
「Is it about this girl?」
Rica looked at Caroline .
「She’s called Caroline . Do you know her?」
「”That” Caroline?」
「Uhm……」
「It’s Rica Calamba . Nice to et you」
Rica reached out her hand for a handshake . Caroline shook her hand, but .
「I’m sorry, God……」
「I see . Don’t mind it」
「Oh! Kakeru can talk to her?」
「Is it really that famous of a story?」
「Well, quite so」
「I see」
Recalling Helene call her “Child of God”, I sohow understood that Caroline’s quite famous .
「My bad, I’ll co again」
「Yes, I’ll be waiting for you」
Rica sent us off with a smile, while the girl with a golden hair showed a sowhat disappointing look .
I said goodbye to them and warped to the next place .
Aura, Fiona, and Selene who wields Demon Sword Xiphos .
I warped to many places, letting her et all kinds of people, but Caroline didn’t understand any of their words .
She could only hear , she could only understand my words .
After going around, we returned to Caroline’s room .
「I’m sorry, Oh God……」
Caroline knew my intention, and she also knew what I was doing, but she only looks like she could not answer to my expectations .
She drooped her shoulders so pitifully, making her smaller than her already petite stature .
「Don’t mind it . It’s not your fault」
「Un……」
I thought once again while comforting Caroline .
It is almost confird that she can’t understand other people’s words except for . Well, that is fine too .
Her alias “Child of God” that I heard many tis .
She can hear God’s voice, she can only understand God’s voice, so Child of God .
I thought that having that Caroline only understand my words makes things easier instead .
To make her the Pope, to make her lissa’s substitute, there are many things I would need to do .
I guess I should put them together first . Also, I want soone else’s advice .
Probably from Althea, Delfina, and Helene .
I thought of asking them for advice .
「Uhm……God」
「Un?」
「I, I’m happy just being able to talk with God」
「……」
Naturally, I didn’t take Caroline’s words as it was .
When she said that, she looked awfully sad .
Described briefly, she’s pushing herself .
I could easily understand that she’s telling “I’m okay” while pushing herself .
「After all, this is a power granted to by God?」
「Granted to you?」
「Un . The God before told , this power will soday save this world, that it’s a power that makes people happy」
She was told that, huh .
And……power .
「……」
「What’s the matter, God?」
「You don’t want to talk with other people?」
「I-I’m fine even if I don’tーー」
「I’m not asking whether you’re alright with it . You want or you don’t want? Which is it?」
「……eh?」
Caroline was caught off guard . She imdiately replied .
「I want, but……」
She said softly .
『She’s not used to talking so she probably didn’t even thought of hiding it』
I also think so .
I an, Caroline’s emotions are basically showing all the ti .
If I throw her a ball, she would simply throw it back .
Because she’s not used to talking, her reactions and replies are usually straightforward .
And she told she wants to .
「If so, then I’ll let you」
「Eh? T-Through writing?」
「No」
I shook my head . I reached out my hand and opened my Different Dinsion Warehouse .
From there, I took out a prize I won from the lottery .
The skill “Backward Compatibility” .
I used that on Caroline .
The light enveloped Caroline and lted into her body .
「W-What happened, God」
「Focus . Focus while thinking you wish to understand」
「Eh?」
「Hikari」
「Un!」
Hikari who was behaved as she followed us all the ti and watched the events happening nodded .
「I’m Yuuki Hikari」
「……?」
「Focus, tell yourself you want to understand what she said」
I told her once again . After seeing Caroline furrow her eyebrows, I tapped Hikari’s back .
「I’m Yuuki Hikari」
「Ah……!」
Caroline’s eyes widened .
「I-I understand!」
「Really?! You can understand Hikari?」
「Un! Oh God, I understand!」
It looks like it was super effective .
