2nd Rank Has Returned

Speeding-4

There are many kinds of torture in the world.

From physical torture to mental torture.

Perhaps, as far as how to torture and how to be subjected to torture, he is probably the number one person who surpasses even Arya.

The most difficult part of the physical torture was the method of maximizing pain by removing oxygen only enough to maintain sensation in a hot room where the floor temperature was maintained to a degree of burns.

The most difficult of the psychological tortures was to starve as much as possible in a room with no windows or even a single light coming in, and use dreams and drugs every time he slept to create abnormal symptoms or to have nightmares.

But now it needed to be corrected.

“So… what’s your name?”

“It’s Ain. Gladio.”

“…uh… um… that’s right.”

It was more painful than burning her throat every hour for Gladio to constantly scan herself with a bewildered look every time she spoke.

“…who is your father?”

Chris, who was so fast and sleepy enough to pretend that he had no usual appearance, filled the car with sugar and drank it, it felt like he was scratching the epidermis of his stomach with sandpaper.

“This is Leonardo. Darkness Chris.”

“… on the mother’s side.”

“The person who does not exist in the relationship and family register, but is biologically close to the position of the mother is Ariaspil Reinhardt. Commander of the Executive Knights, Marken-sama.”

When Arya blushed with a belated shame, it felt like her intestines were red from internal bleeding.

Every time Marken pressed his finger to his eyes and took a deep breath, he felt like he wanted to poke his eyes with a nail and bleed.

“…uh… Mr. Ain…?”

“You can omit the title. Mrs. Silica.”

Fortunately, Ain was the driest and coldest person to draw the line.

“…Rios.”

Similarly, Silica, with a rotten look on her head, put down her teacup and said. I’ve only seen Silica make that kind of expression a couple of times in her previous life.

“Yes! mother!”

“Did you know?”

And he was the only non-military person who could control those two immature children.

“…uh… didn’t you know that Aria was coming? I never imagined that I would receive a revelation right away…”

In other words, he kept his mouth shut even though he knew what kind of existence Ain was and was coming.

Perhaps, if Leo had not had a little patience, only the ending of Rios’ pure love novels would have been modified into a tragedy or the loss of a lover, just as Rios changed the name of her magic. It’s as if you changed your own unique magic and registered it.

“I apologize. Leo-kun.”

At Silica’s words, Rios opened her eyes slightly, bowed her head with an apologetic expression, and pulled out an apple from her mouth. Considering his usual behavior, it was an extremely unusual act.

“…that’s… I’m sorry. Aww… I didn’t take it out at all… No, it’s an excuse. sorry. cadet…”

I didn’t expect much from Rios anyway, so I wasn’t too disappointed. Rather, it was fortunate that he didn’t openly say, ‘Leo and Arya have a child.’

“…First of all, the situation is as outlined.”

Ain’s explanation was only briefly finished after he had finished. It would be impossible for even a sage to sum up in a few sentences an unusual speeding offense, let alone a relationship.

[To be honest, if I summarize too much, there is no more credibility.]

＜Thanks to someone.＞

[…Did you think I would be like that?]

According to the sage’s explanation, the Ein at the time of creation, no, the type diat was close to a higher machine that was difficult to call a living being.

However, the physical information entered by the sage was lost, whether there was an error in the storage state or whether a new trait had been developed for a long period of time. As a result, the cognitive system has also changed.

＜That makes more sense. This bastard.＞

In the end, it was the same thing as conscience was a piece of shit that was ground into feed.

{The crime of trespassing is a grave law.}

[I did not destroy my life.]

With a very serious expression, the sage opened his mouth. Even if it looks like that, there may be some philosophy as a magician…

[It’s deceptive.]

This was garbage, not garbage.

Buang, swish, boong

When Leo gave a signal with his thoughts, Ain threw a fist at the wise man. To others, it looked like they were just shoveling in the air.

“…why are you doing this all of a sudden?”

“Oh, it’s okay. There are small and ugly bugs that are very petty, so Ain catches them herself. You won’t be able to see it because you’ve already caught it.”

It wasn’t a lie, as Leo couldn’t even see it with his own eyes. Even though Ain worked hard, isn’t it polite to dry her or force her to restrain herself?

“…I see, so what happened to Ain in the tower and the temple?”

“First of all, the voting ended by leaving it to the opinions of the temple side, and the temple side…”

Leonardo took out the judgment containing the decision of the temple side.

“…it’s a similar spirit…”

“Perhaps it was certified based on the papers on ‘Goblin of the East’ and ‘Ego Weapon’, which were used as a discussion material in the mana tower. There was no reaction at all.”

This is the content of help from a junior of Matoap from the East. If an old relic gains physical form or intelligence by having its own self in mana, this is the same as the formation of a spirit body, so it should be called a pseudo-spirit body. .

Thanks to this, both the tower and the temple were able to understand and lead opinions in a moderate direction.

“…Right. Did that happen?”

Marken stroked his chin and clicked his tongue. My tongue was sore and bitter, and I couldn’t eat it without wearing it.

“…there are countless things I want to ask you. From why I have my granddaughter’s hair, to why I pruned all the important facts about the tower and sent out regular letters.”

At Marken’s words, Leo had no choice but to agree with his head bowed. There was a feeling similar to when I was in the Senate, but the situation and the outcome itself were different, so it may be inevitable.

“…but there is only one thing that upsets me the most incomprehensible.”

Dry saliva flows naturally at those words. Here, it could be said that the most important turning point was Marken.

The first thing that comes to mind is seeing.

Considering the nuisance caused by not reporting, the commander of the Executioner’s Knights had sufficient justification for punishment.

The second thing that comes to mind is Aria’s relationship.

As for the hair, now the relationship between himself and Ariaspil was twisted. The relationship between the knight and the young lady could not be explained at all…

“Why didn’t you ask for help?”

“…Yes?”

Marken sighed and looked at Leonardo.

“There were many opportunities to ask the family for help, so why did you just keep your mouth shut?”

But now, it wasn’t just hate, it was his eyes that were full of hate.

“…that is…”

It was a very unexpected question, and Leo was rather speechless, so he couldn’t answer properly and trembled.

“I wonder who wouldn’t belong to the Reinhardt family…”

“who? Who do you think Reinhardt will do to you alone?”

It was a similar word to when I entered the arsenal with Marken several years later. If there is only a difference, is it that it has changed from ‘sun chick’ to ‘you’?

“You idiot, whether you like it or not, you are also a member of the family. Be aware of your position now.”

No matter how insensitive Leonardo was, he wasn’t stupid enough to know the hidden meaning of those words.

“…really… are you okay?”

“Hey, I can’t say it’s okay, now it’s even an honor. If another family could have a magic swordsman like you, it would probably not be enough to pay all of my fortune.”

Even Chris of Darkness agreed to that without any objection. No, looking at his actions and tone of voice so far, it could be seen that Marken agreed with Chris’s opinion.

“And if you look at it, Ain is also a fountain mixed with Reinhardt’s blood. Aren’t we all unrelated?”

Although he was grateful for the comfort, it was Rios who would have been better if he had said it sooner. When he looked at Rios like that, he said ‘…sorry…’ at least a little and avoided Leo’s gaze with a narrow eye.

“…And seeing Ain’s face without doing anything like this is really embarrassing, isn’t it embarrassing even as a head of state? Leonardo-kun.”

Gaju Gladio immediately smiled and looked at Ain. Ain was expressionless, but judging from the vitality in his eyes, it seemed that he had no objection to the Reinhardt family’s reaction.

“…Raising a child alone is not an easy task, but it would be good to share your worries together.”

Silica, as a parent who raised children, understood and touched Leonardo’s heart, even if it was only partly.

In response to the unexpected reaction, Leonardo continued to close his eyes and rechecked his hearing over and over again.

Although Leonardo himself was not aware of it, all the family members and servants in Reinhardt were already in debt to him in various ways.

Starting from the lowest level, getting to this position and position only through effort without being drunk with talent was no longer something to be ignored, but rather an achievement to be proud of.

And by the time Rios arrived at the family earlier than Leonardo, Leonardo raised his status even more by showing what he did for the family, the morality and loyalty he kept, and the achievements and efforts currently seen in the tower through words and practical data.

From Reinhardt’s point of view and from the point of view of direct blood, he welcomed Leonardo’s existence, but had no intention of rejecting it.

furthermore

“So, oh, what are you going to do with your relationship in the future?”

“…brother…! Talking like that…”

Arya turned her slightly red face and glanced at Leo. Most of the people present had already noticed Arya’s feelings for a long time.

“…it’s a little burdensome…”

‘Cause I’m so pissed

‘…it’s embarrassing. Honeysuckle is already falling from my eyes.’

‘…If I told you to remove the picture of Knight Leo from the pillow, I’d pretend I didn’t know…’

‘…Kang-ho is connected to Kang-ho. Leonardo is the only strong player that fits Aria.’

‘…My granddaughter’s favorite guy is that kind of guy… Ha… Should I say it’s fortunate…’

‘…As expected…I guess it wasn’t a mistake to have Leonardo by my side…I’m so glad that my daughter has become more human.’

‘…I have to teach Arya how to handle men well… Especially the night technique…’

{‘…It’s a different ending from Reuben… The sage… That’s what you were hoping for… leaving is a little forgiving…’}

[‘Ha…Finally, this asshole-like taunting is over. A head-to-head who doesn’t know this…’]

Leonardo said with a soft smile.

“Of course, I will do my best not to feel burdened. Don’t be ashamed of Ain either.”

damn

Suddenly, everyone slapped their foreheads in unison. Among them, there was even Ain.
