A vast narrow street, which were made of by sparse building blocks were made out of stone, reminiscent of a tremendously big hallway.

It was surrounded by some old buildings which commonly had pre modern architecture.

At least it had three or four floors.

It was rather so called an alley.

The temperature there was hot, even so it wasn’t as searing as noontime at the open field.

Beside those dozens of meters wall height, stood a man--more like he was slightly leaning his body on it.

A man, which his hair was longish and white as old man does.

Even then, his face was the sheer opposite of his hair.

It was glowing, dazzling beautiful as if someone would assume he was actually a she.

Thus said he should to be young man.

By the high-temperature flew around him, as if it was a river stream.

He didn’t seem to be affected by the air, but he seemed a bit drowsy.

Therefore, he lent his body on the wall.

His hand stretched out, that one hand was holding a fiery matchstick and then another hand emerged from his old, black coat, on it layed a cigarette that squeezed by fingers.

That cigarette, which squeezed by his fingers was slowly directed to his lips.

When it entered his mouth, even a merely little part of it, the air in his mouth sucked part so at once.

Thereafter, some grey clouds unfolded onto the air, its impertinent smell then made him more drowsy

Furthermore, those called narrow winds or so, made him even more drowsy, as his consciousness was gradually dropping.

Falling.

His body were also gradually falling.

As if contents of an egg when the egg itself was splatted onto the sheer stone wall.

His eyes, it was now nothing but a dead crimson moon as those eyelids took an act as some closing curtains.

Suddenly, some presence was about to bump on him.

He can sense it.

Even if it didn’t change the fact that he was drowsy

But that mere presence became quickly stronger, as though the time itself was outwitted by it.

Now, it had already bumped before him.

It does make him startled.

“—?“

Abruptly, his eyelids were opened, but he wasn’t shocked.

Because before that moment he had awared of that presence and so he discerned its image, even so it was so blurred and hazy back then.

That image was a girl.

A girl with golden hair which was none other than Rea.

She was actually called his name or so back then, but it apparently didn’t even reach his ears.

"...Excuse me please...Excuse me..."

Back at the man while he suddenly regained his composure, now he stood perpendicularly as if his nerves told him to do so.

Now, they began to speak.

"...My, Lord Dandelion. Hi."

“Yo. Rea-san right?”

“...Yes. Good then if you still remember.”

She said as she smiled brightly.

“Ahaha...Such a whim...Wow. You’re now bigger right?”

“Ehe...Don’t say such things. That’s embarassing y’know?”

Rea said as her face was blushing red. She made a cranky expression on it, so her eyes weren’t gazing to him.

She contradict things from what she said before.

By now, if in case people saw her they would think she was a cute little girl.

Even her tone sounded to be more high-pitched then usual as though a five-year old girl.

So said she was frivolously angry. In fact her respects of him was still as highly as ever, even she thought Dandelion as if her family elders. Thus she stopped act so, but...

--Silence.

Suddenly, both of them had no idea what to talk next. They seemed to be lazy for such greetings.

After all, a basic greeting was better than needless, which was an exaggeration.

Dandelion was delighted after he met Rea. It was as if his mood were back, those bothersome drowsiness had ceased to exist at the first place.

Despite so, he didn’t want to be as open as ever, he apparently wanted to talk about something more crucial; something more important as he would even know...

He also had some thoughts if a basic and simple greeting was better than needless, which was nothing but a long exaggerated greeting. After all, they were too lazy to do so.

So, both of them suddenly had no idea what to talk next.

Silence overwhelmed them for a minute.

Thereupon, as those minutes had passed, those ideas were gradually emerging from their mind.

And Rea realized that she was after something.

“...Um, recently you know about The Blue Wizard’s whereabouts, don’t you?” Asked her

“The Blue Wizard? Hmmmm” his tone sounded as he was deep in thought for a mere second.

“Wait. Seriously? You know him?”

He was a bit dumbfounded by now, upon he heard her told him so.

It wasn’t a very surprise.

To him, he was sort of precious family, the one who was used to live with him.

Flashed him back to the beautiful old times, which made him dumbfounded.

But he was seemingly happy.

That so-called blue wizard did reminisced him of his old kin.

“That supreme, old blue wizard?” Asked him more as he rephrased the statement.

“Yes, I do know him—no—actually it was more.”

“Don’t tell me—“ his thoughts was speaking to himself as his eyes were glared.

But his mind didn’t show any clear matches for it.

He tried to think more and more.

“...I was taught, raised, cherished by him since I was a merely a problematic little girl, along with my sister.“

“...Ah...Aah yes, I remember that he has a very something to do with you.”

His tone sounded surprisingly joyful after he recollected some fragments of his past memories.

“He upbrought me with all of this so confusing things, even it may be comperhensible to none. Now, I shall ask about these things to him again. In order to do so, I need to know about his whereabouts...” Her tone was sounded neither sad nor happy, but a little bit melancholy could be sensed in the end of her tongue.

Dandelion gulped a bit, seemed as though he was frightened upon hearing those. Although so, the fact told that he wasn’t frightened at all, instead he knew what did she mean about that confusing things...

“...I see.” He stared straight at her.

Her body now was thoroughly stared from its’ upperside until below as if he was scanning her.

“...Eh? What are you doing?—“ Her tone sounded as she was unpleasant.

However, she didn’t complain more about it because at the same time she thought if Dandelion’s act had something to do with that confusing things that she said before.

It looked like there was something inside her body.

Something strange and occult.

Sort of incomprehensible.

On Dandelion’s visions, he discerned some flow of greenish energy, which forming a path as river did.

It was tremendously massive, as if those energy was never reached its end.

Or simply, it added up massively.

It was a magic circuit.

It was hers, after all.

Upon saw those magic circuits that overflowed through her body, he wanted to do something about it.

But...

He seemed to know where lies the Blue Wizard.

“...Ah, I do know where did he go recently.”

“Where is he?”

.............................................................................................................................................

Five people were now on the rooftop.

As though a mad clown, Hiruko kept blabbering aimlessly as if the others was indignant upon hearing it.

But in fact, the others didn’t even show such exact reactions for him.

Mizuki, although she wasn’t smiling in fact she was still looked lively and happy, as if his aimless talking was nothing.

While Endou and the rest seemed to had a flat expression.

Apparently they were patiently heard him with no sort of anger at all.

Still ordinarily flat expression as ever, he asked Hiruko

“Stop it, Hiruko. Just go to the point.”

Hiruko at the moment stiffened his tongue and closed his mouth gradually. As he was already silent, now was Nami’s turn which came to stage.

Her mood seemed to be pleasant, no worries and anxiety existed within her. With a smile as bright as the sun, she said

“Finally, we can gather here. Although the sixth weren’t currently here, it’s still made all six of us. And actually, he was listening nearby.”

Others didn’t surprised at all upon hearing this, instead because they had awared the sixth was nearby from the start. They also knew the reason why he did not appear at the meeting.

“...Well, instead of worrying to much about him, lets just discuss this problem quickly.”

Her expression was gradually solemn. “...You guys know why does he order us to gather here, right?” Said her as her gaze turned upon Mizuki.

“...Ehehe, don’t ask me such things...” Said Mizuki as she smiled wryly.

She was seemingly ashamed, but it didn’t change her shape of her good mood at all.

Out of the blue, there came sort of helping hand from Endou.

He quickly answered that question with enthusiasm.

“...He told us to do so in order to resolve these strings of accident. And you know what? In truth this world now was in very mess; chaos and other ominous things even clouded these entire existence due those said almighty gods are currently in a great war. Their mere quarrel already brought troublesome things, such as countless factions rose. But, that was not the real problem, as he said so.”

Without letting them to concern about it, he added “...By this war does progress, some sorts of unfathomably mysterious things happened. It might be hard to explain further concerning these things, it was something that you ought not to hear. Even if I use the highest extent of my knowledge, I still couldn’t fathom it deeply...Nevermind. Seems I went too deep.”

“Therefore, to resolve that we must do as he said, and thats why we are here. He sets us as the main characters—jeez. For simplicity’s sake, we were ordered to resolve the truth behind those accidents.” He ended his explanation

Even though there were some influent phrases from his explanation, the others could still keep up themselves with it.

Most of them were apparently dumbfounded upon hearing that, except Hiruko.

He had knew the point, but it was just he couldn't get them to it.

However, they still appreciated it as the well-finest answer.

Because, after all he was talking in fact

...He had a point.

Most of them were apparently dumbfounded upon hearing that. Nevertheless, such things didn't work for Hiruko.

“Quite. As expected of you.” Said Nami as she nodded. Her eyes were glaring vigorously, but it went back normal though to her it was not a surprise.

She had some high expectations for him, because after all to her, he was smarter than ever.

But that didn't made Endou himself think very highly or supreme of him.

He wasn't an arrogant man, likewise simple, plain man.

His taught spoke if this said vast amount of knowledge and such were caused by his help.

Nothing came from him naturally.

He had no such desire as for an unfathomably deep knowledge, respects, high position or something ilk.

Even he did not worry or concern about his future and past; he just thoroughly underwent his present life.

Even he know very much things in this universe, as if said he know almost all things in all existence.

Or something beyond, near and close to the god.

It did not change the fact of his simplicity and his lighthearted attitude.

He had no such desire as for an unfathomably deep knowledge, respects, high position or something ilk.

Likewise he did not worry or concern about his future and past; he just thoroughly underwent his present life.

Thus, in response of Nami's reply, as he smiled with relief he said "...Ehehe..no. Just a whim, anyways I was accidentally leaked some information which you guys might not understand. But I see it does have a point, so "

"But you have the point. I do understand very much of what you say, though I was just grasp the meaning of it." said Nami in her response.

Afterwards, Myu still had her blank expression,

Her dark, dampened eyes seemingly had reflected nothing, as well as her eyelids, it were seemed to be half-opened.

But at both edges of her said lips, they were stretched a bit.

She nodded.

"Yeah. In his accordance we must resolve these puzzle and define those truths behind. After all, even said we have sorts of Nigh-Omniscience, our knowledge are still having its restrictions, especially right now, we know nothing about it but a deep mystery." She said as she rephrased after Endou.

Up until now, her tone was plain, it would made someone presume if she was talking drearily.

But, the truth said it was unspecified.

Thus said it was merely one of her habit.

Never showing her expression, unless if she was very urged to do so or something ilk.

"Splendid. Actually that's what I meant before." replied Hiruko, in response to Endou.

However, he wasn't surprised at all.

He already knew of this from the start.

He knew he will met the four--rather call five that it was an unavoidable fate, also he knew every possibillities and impossibilities from this so-called His Tale, as well.

But, as Myu said before,

Even he knew it all will happen from the start,

Even if he knew if this was inevitable,

Even he possessed ability said Nigh-Omniscience,

...In the end all he knew that those were a mere mystery.

No more specific information on it, and it was just directed him into one word.

Unfathomable.

And at last Mizuki.

She gulped upon heard those words from Endou.

She was sort of frightened, but she also thought that it was maybe a true.

She didn't seem to be understand what did he mean.

Even, she still didn't understand after Myu rephrased his words.

But she won't stop.

She won't quit and give in.

She will found these meaning, she will take every chance to know more about it.
