Arifureta Shokugyou de Sekai Saikyou (WN)

Saying that, the two turned around. They didn’t even loko back at the words asking them to stay and their figure turned small faraway just like fickle wind that drifted away.

「Geez……to not even let us express our thanks sufficiently……they are really selfish, whimsy, hics-……and kind demon god-sama and true dragon-sama.」

『Haha-ue……I will, do my best. I’ll become a true dragon Haha-ue can be proud of.』

Inside the world where the cheers of gratitude of the people were echoing, the whispers of the queen and monarch dragon resounded solemly, yet by no means they carried any unpleasant emotion inside.

The strongest butler who had been at her side since her childhood offered a handkerchief silently. And then, he asked with reservation as though giving consideration.

「……Roze-sama. Is this okay?」

‘Is it fine to not stop them from leaving?’ Roze who thought that she was asked that wiped her eyes that turned red from tears while she nodded with a bright smile even then.

「No matter what reason we have, surely no one will be able to stop those people to stay here. Then, let us wait instead. We will do what we ought to do, make this world even more beautiful, so that when they come here once again riding on the wind we will be able to give them satisfaction.」

‘A splendid determination. You have grown,’ Sabas wanted to say that.

However, he couldn’t say it. Because the meaning of his question was different.

「That, err, it’s not that……they are, taking away Avenst, is that okay?」

「Eh?」

Roze-chan stiffened with a snap, a smile still on her face. After her, Kuwaibel who was in her embrace and Bovid and others who were cheering behind them also stiffened in a snap.

Roze averted her gaze still with a smiling face thinking ‘Just what is gramps talking about I wonder?’. Her gaze moved toward the place where Avenst was parked.

Not there.

No matter how many times she looked, the nation on ship that had been together with them in joys and sorrows until now wasn’t there. Or rather, the goods and tools for living, the personal effects that should be placed in the resident district and production district, all of them were left into a huge mound at slight distance away before anyone noticed.

A wind blew pass the empty space. Ah, the adult underwear of a lady that was previously hanged on the tip of the main cannon to dry it was blown by the wind! It was lightly dancing in the sky!

Roze blinked.

As she thought, the figure of mother ship Avenst wasn’t there. If this was in anime, then surely there would be the ship’s silhouette blinking in the empty spot with sound effect *pikon pikon-*.

Sabas spoke with a really complicated expression toward Roze who was in the state of petrification still with a smiling face.

「If I may be so presumptuous to speak……」

「Wha, what is it, gramps?」

「……Perhaps, that person had taken our commitment?」

「Commitment?」

The conversation that showed Roze’s determination and resolve to Hajime was flowing inside Roze’s brain. The memory was filtered by the truth that was Sabas’s words.

Now, let’s try remembering it clearly!

『Yes, perhaps that is so. But, didn’t Hajime-sama say it yourself? What is starting from here on is the “rebirth” dragon kingdom Avenst. Even if that isn’t a monarch dragon core, even if it’s a dragon core energy that is already processed, we will never make use of dragon core as weapon until the end of the world.』

・Roze-chan’s true feeling

――We won’t use Avenst as weapon, so we don’t need the jewel for activating it.

・Hajime-san’s liberal translation

――We don’t need this kind of battleship anymore okay!

『……You really, won’t use it until the end the world?』

・Hajime-san’s liberal translation

――Eh, seriously? Seriously, not just the jewel, but you also don’t need Avenst?

『Yes. We won’t.』

・Roze-chan’s true feeling

――Yes, we don’t need the jewel

・Hajime-san’s liberal translation

――Totally seriously. I say that we seriously don’t need something like Avenst. Rather it’s just a baggage.

『……This is a power that can rule the world. The strongest battleship. You really don’t need it?』

・Hajime-san’s liberal translation

――Really? Even if later you say ‘as I thought we need it’ that won’t be my problem y’know? You rea~lly don’t need it then?

『Yes, we don’t need it.』

・Roze-chan’s true feeling

――For you to be that worried for us……. But, we really don’t need that jewel.

・Hajime-san’s liberal translation

――How persistent. We really don’t need this kind of battleship I told you. Rather, we are troubled of how to deal with it!
