Chapter 1830: The Truth About the Lost Child ④

Thanks to Shiro-san's consideration, Cent-san and Cien-san now have items that can compensate for Tre-san's ability. This would theoretically prevent the two of them from losing sight of Tre-san.

In the first place, if what Tre-san was just a simple ability, Cent-san and Cien-san could have powered through searching for her, so there shouldn't be any problem unless it's something related to a power on the level of authority given by Shiro-san but there's no way to know without trying.

[So, if Tre-san gets lost, Cent-san and Cien-san will be able to quickly search for her?]

[Yes, I'm sure there's no mistaking that since Shallow Vernal-sama had given it to us, but I'm not completely sure how it's like without trying it out.]

[Just as Cent-san said, I'd also like to try it once Esteemed Sister Tre, would you mind getting lost for a moment?]

[As expected of my little sisters, you two just demand the most outrageous things.]

I don't think there's any problem with it since that's something created by Shiro-san, but still, I guess it's natural for a person to want to actually try it out.

And so, in order to test it out, she asked Tre-san to get lost Of course, Cien-san said that in a tone that clearly sounded like a joke, and Tre-san herself just chuckled with amusement. Then, after a moment of thought, she spoke.

[Hmmm. In essence, even if I'm not actually lost, it would just be fine if Cent and Cien could track me using Detection Magic, right? Then, I'll go out around the city with Kaito, and after Cent and Cien wait here for about 15 minutes, you can come after me with Detection Magic.]

[Ahh, I see, that would certainly work as an experiment to see if Tre-san can be located with Detection Magic.]

[ [ .. ] ]

Tre-san's suggestion seemed like a good idea to me, and I thought it would also be fun for the four of us to meet up and hang out in the city, but for some reason, Cent-san and Cien-san had this indescribably complicated expression on their faces.

What's going on? It's as if they were hesitating about something, looking uncomfortable like that

[Ahh, no need to worry. I already know about this beforehand, so I won't be jamming it.]

[Ah, yes.]

[Thank you for your concern.]

As I tilted my head in confusion, Alice showed herself, uttered a few words to Cent-san and Cien-san, and then disappeared again. Seeing the evident relief on their faces in response to her words, I can somewhat guess the situation.

I remember receiving a message from Alice when I first met the two of them in the Demon Realm, saying that Cent-san and Cien-san wanted to greet me properly at a later date. This is just a guess, but Cent-san and Cien-san probably tried to find me with Detection Magic, and Alice blocked what they were doing.

It didn't seem like they were tense or feeling afraid of Alice, and from her remark just now, it felt more like they just reacted impulsively at that moment. And so, since Alice knew in advance that the two of them would use Detection Magic, she probably showed herself to tell them that there was no problem with using it.

[Did something happen between the two of you and Shalltear-sama?]

[Ahh, no, we just used Detection Magic when we tried to locate Kaito-san and Sieglinde-san before but Phantasmal King-sama, who had been guarding Kaito-san, forcibly neutralized it.]

[I heard that Phantasmal King-sama wasn't particularly finding fault with us, but was instead simply reacting reflexively but still, that made me keenly feel the immense gap in power between us Looking back, what happened back then makes me feel a bit tense.]

Wryly smiling at Cent-san and Cien-san's explanation, Tre-san and I nodded in understanding. For the time being, it seemed that there was no issue regarding this matter, so Tre-san and I decided to go around the city together.

[Alright! Kaito, it's a date!!! Let's decide on our blazing hot 15-minute adventure!]

[I'm not deciding anything, and besides, I think there's not really much time]

[That's strange, I should have accumulated enough favorability by now~~]

[Maybe things would have been different if you stopped being unclear whether what you're saying is for real or just a joke.]

[No way, is my love not being transmitted Feelings sure are difficult.]

[Even if you say that with a cheerful look on your face]

Tre-san, who was speaking half-jokingly, seemed to be having fun, and while there was still a part of me unsure how serious she was, it didn't change the fact that talking with Tre-san was enjoyable.

While this outing would also serve as an experiment, I'm also looking forward to going out around the city with Tre-san and the others.

<Afterword>

Serious-senpai : [It's really reassuring that Tre doesn't seem to be leaning towards a sweet mood at the moment.]

? ? : [No, wouldn't someone of her type become extra sweet when they get all affectionate?]

Serious-senpai : [Stop with the disturbing things.]
