After the barbecue ended, I spent most of the time chatting, talking with Tiana-san again, just the two of us, and showing her around my room since she said she wanted to see it.Since Tiana-san had such a gentle personality and was easy to talk to, the conversation flowed naturally, and before I knew it, time had flown by.
As evening approached, she decided it was about time to head home, saying she didnt want to overstay. Though she could probably return from anywhere if she wanted, we somehow ended up moving to the terrace in the backyard where she had first arrived, and I saw her off from there.
[Kaito-kun, thank you so much for today. I really had a great time.]
[I should be the one thanking you. I had a lot of fun too, and it was really interesting hearing all those stories about other worlds. Ill let you know once we decide on a date for the tea party, but even aside from that, feel free to drop by anytime if you feel like it.]
[Unn. I didnt expect to get permission for free visits like this, so Ill definitely come by again. If possible, Id love to invite you to my world someday too though bringing you to another world might cause a lot of fuss, so I guess Ill have to sort things out first.]
[I can imagine getting permission would be a hassle but Im definitely interested. Id like to visit if I get the chance.]
From what Id heard, Tiana-sans world sounded more like something out of science fictionfar more advanced than the world I came from. It seemed like it would have a completely different kind of otherworld atmosphere compared to Trinia, so if the opportunity ever came, Id definitely want to go.
Hearing my response, Tiana-san smiled gently then after a brief pause, she quietly spoke again.
[Kaito-kun, thank you. Not just for today, Ive been wanting to properly thank you ever since we met.]
[Errr, is this about Nebula?]
[No. Well, its definitely related, of course but its also something more fundamental than that.]
[Unn?]
When I tilted my head in confusion, Tiana-san kept her gentle expression, though there was a slightly reflective look in her eyes as she continued.
[It all started with Nebula-san, thats true. Her revival prompted me no, not just me, but many World Creators to look into you. We saw how youve lived, what youve gained, and what kind of resolve you had when you faced Shallow Vernals trial.]
[Fumu well, I guess there are a lot of omniscient beings around, so its not surprising Id be known.]
[Unn. But unless something like that happens, we how should I put it? We almost never pay attention to a single life striving to gain something. Like you said, I possess omniscience and omnipotence. I can do anything and know everything but maybe because of that, I hadnt really done anything, and perhaps I didnt truly know anything either.]
[Uh Im not sure I follow?]
Was this some kind of philosophical discussion? As I tilted my head, unable to grasp the intent behind Tiana-sans curious phrasing, she let out a genuinely cheerful laugh.
[Fufufu, that was a rather roundabout way of putting it. Just like you said, among us World Creators, there are plenty who possess omniscience, and plenty who can see the future. But perhaps because of that we forgot something as obvious as the fact that the future can be changed. We never struggled to change it, and we couldnt even do something as simple as reaching out for what we desired.]
[..]
[Maybe thats why? Watching you, worrying, suffering, losing your way not advancing in the most efficient manner, but struggling as you reached out with everything you had for what you wanted and, pushed forward by so many feelings, finally grasping it, was unbearably dazzling. Even though I knew everything through omniscience, you made me realize that I hadnt truly understood anything In your back, as you walked toward the future, I saw hope.]
It was, in a way, the highest form of praise. Because she knew everything and could do anything, she had learned something she never truly understood Theyre words of gratitude from the bottom of her heart.
[Thats why, not just me, but many World Creators adore you, Kaito-kun. Of course, that includes the fact that you became the catalyst for Nebulas revival, and the great feat of defeating Shallow Vernal in your own way. But even without Nebula or Shallow Vernal, I can say with absolute confidence that were your fans though, I suppose Ive made it sound more complicated than it really is. In truth, its very simple Thanks to you, Im genuinely excited about the future ahead so, thank you. Thats all there is to it.]
As she said this, Tiana-san smiled warmly. Her hair swayed in the breeze, and a soft, clear chime rang out. How should I say this it felt a little embarrassing, but hearing those words spoken so sincerely honestly made me happy.
Serious-senpai : [Errr, so basically, that means the Tiana arc is wrapping up for now, right? Then next is?]
??? : [Lilia-san, Sieg-san, Anima-san, Illness-san an amusement park trip with four lovers plus the rest of the group.]
Serious-senpai : [I think Im gonna go lie down for a bit.]
