Chapter 2450: Requested Item
This chapter is updated by JustRead.pl
Since Kaori-san said she also had something she wanted to consult me about, after putting away the matsutake Id brought, I decided to listen in detail while drinking the tea she served.
[Errr, you see. Im not sure how to put this, and if Im just being full of myself you can laugh, but lately my skin, or rather my whole body just feels like its gotten prettier somehow younger, maybe? Dont you feel like theres something like that going on?]
[Kaori-san has always looked young and beautiful, but it does feel like youve been even more polished lately Before, you already gave off an impression of looking like you were in your early 20s, but now, if someone told me you were a teenager, I might actually believe it. Youve always had this youthful vibe while still feeling properly adult because youre overflowing with vitality, but now that you mention it, your skin really does feel rejuvenated to a degree that cant be explained by just that.]
[Its because youre like this, seriously, this exact thing! Because you always give answers that are a perfect 100 points every single time, you end up inviting weird misunderstandings! Im seriously going to start shifting toward making you take responsibility for that already]
When I honestly answered what she asked, Kaori-sans cheeks twitched, looking ard to tell whether she was happy or angry.
However, after taking a deep breath, she quickly composed herself and reset her expression.
[No, if I keep throwing tsukkomis at Kaito-kuns womanizing tendencies, well never get anywhere. I mean, it really does feel like Im strangely getting younger Its a level of change that cant be explained just by trying harder with skincare or paying attention to my diet. My height and everything else feel the same, but its like only my skin is reverting to a younger state.]
[Hmmm Does it feel similar to Life-sans Blessing? If I remember right, Life-sans Blessing is supposed to bring a persons age or physique closer to the ideal state they themselves envision.]
Well, even if its an ideal physique, it seems to be limited to something the person actually was in the past, or could realistically reach through effort. Otherwise, my height shouldve grown too
So its like you can return to a past state, but you cant arrive at a future one. Fate-sans Critical Point of Fate, which uses her Authority of Fate at full power, is apparently something that lets one temporarily reach a future endpoint, but Life-sans Blessing doesnt go that far.
More than that, the Blessing itself doesnt possess power on the level of a Gods own Authority, so what it can do is inherently limited. Of course, from the perspective of Humans like Kaori-san and me, its effects are still far beyond common sense
[Indeed, I guess its close to that? Actually, I did think of something along those lines.]
[You got something in mind?]
[Unn. You remember when Olivia-sama, you, and I went out together before? Olivia-sama spoke to me via telepathy then, right? You seemed to hear it too, so maybe you remember, but at that time, Olivia-sama said she had given me something like the Gods Blessing.]
[Ah, now that you mention it, she did casually say something like that. Olivia-san is technically outside the Gods hierarchy, but shes essentially a being close to the Gods, so it wouldnt be strange for her to be able to grant a Blessing. In that case, Kaori-sans changes might be due to Olivia-sans Blessing?]
[Thats what I thought was most likely, and seeing Kaito-kuns reaction, it really does seem like thats the strongest possibility.]
[Yeah. I dont know how much the recipient can adjust it themselves, but the Supreme Gods Blessings tend to share effects like eternal youth, and Olivia-sans abilities are said to rival those of a Supreme God. In that case, it feels like she could easily make Kaori-san ageless or rejuvenate your youth.]
In Olivia-sans case, the abilities that correspond to her Authority are the kind that can be exercised within the Friendship City but those are really just her original powers with usage restrictions applied outside Friendship City. That doesnt mean Olivia-sans inherent strength changes.
Even at my birthday party, her restrictions were temporarily lifted and she was able to use her full abilities in another world. Since those limitations are imposed on Olivia-san herself, not on her Authority, it doesnt feel like the effects of her Blessing would disappear outside Friendship City.
[So, moving on to what I wanted to consult you about I want to ask Olivia-sama about this in more detail, but going to the Central Cathedral by myself makes me hesitate a bit Would you come with me, Kaito-kun?]
[I dont mind at all, but wouldnt it be possible to ask her via telepathy?]
If it were possible to talk with Olivia-san through telepathy, that would probably be the quickest way to ask or so I thought.
[Well, you see. Errr, how should I explain this It might be easiest if you imagine it like a phone call? Olivia-sama calls me, and if I pick up, we can freely talk until the call ends but I dont know Olivia-samas phone number, so I cant call her from my side.]
[Ahh, I see. So unless Olivia-san connects the line from her side, you cant telepathically talk to her. In that case, yeah, going to see her directly really would be faster.]
Communicating through hummingbird takes time, and apparently, Olivia-san usually doesnt check hummingbird while shes in the middle of prayer, so if shes praying, theres a chance the reply would be delayed.
When I send messages, she always replies at lightning speed, but considering Olivia-sans personality, thats probably because its me, she prioritizes responding to me over prayer.
Given that, if Kaori-san wants to ask about the Blessing, going to see her in person really does seem like the best option
Serious-senpai : [There is a potential stomachache flag, but its rather weak? Shes already on good terms with Olivia to begin with, and Kaori herself has always yearned for eternal youth and having her youth restored, so if shes given a proper explanation, shell probably accept it without much trouble And if thats the case, what awaits after that is a Friendship City date with Kaori, who has a day off and plenty of time on her hands]
