"and many more--!"

Qingzi picked up the kitten.

She ran to her grandfather who lived separately from her family in the mountains.

Is it shaken by regret, or is it confused by sadness?

To be honest, she didn't know until now.

Grandpa is a magician who can do anything.

Although she has never seen any [magic] herself, and understands that this is fantasy in fairy tales, she also knows that her grandfather is the kind of person who cannot be measured by common sense.

So... Grandfather must be able to save it.

"You mean you want me to change the fate of this kitten."

The magic who lived in the cave said in a cold tone.

Grandfather once fulfilled many innocent wishes of Qingzi.

He has lived for too long, as a magician who has already blurred the concept of "self", as long as the request is within the scope of his ability, he will be fulfilled.

On that day, all the conditions were met too far.

"Yes, Grandpa. Save it!"

Qingzi begged his grandfather to save it.

The magician neither said it was a small matter, nor said it was a major event that would change the world, and she fulfilled her willful wish with ease like a machine.

"…………what."

When he came back to his senses, Qingzi was holding a fresh life in his arms.

The fur is extremely soft, conveying the warmth of life to Qingzi's hands that were red from the cold.

The girl embraced the baby cat in her arms ecstatically, and kept saying "That's great, thank you Grandpa".

She didn't notice the ominous red figure that appeared in the cave when her grandfather used magic.

"Aozaki."

The red shadow quietly watching the scene made a sound.

The girl looked up.

Only then did Qingzi discover the boy who was about the same size as himself and wrapped in a red cloak.

"who are you--?"

However, the red shadow didn't pay attention to the girl at first.

The "Cang Qi" he called was obviously not Aoko, but Aoko's grandfather who lived in the cave.

Hong Ying said to the old magician.

"How about choosing her as your successor?"

That was a story that happened 13 years ago.

That was their first encounter, which neither he nor she knew yet.

……

……

……

The moment Rhodes entered the cave, a strange but familiar feeling came over him.

Like a sea breeze from the other side, inherited from the ancient past.

In the center of the cave, there is a hazy silhouette of an old man made of smoke.

That spiritual body that dazzles like steam is none other than Aozaki Aoko's grandfather, the fifth magician of the previous generation.

No one knows how much crime he has borne to become such a form.

Somewhat hoarse, but full of spirit, the old man's voice echoed in the cave.

"Granddaughters are giving you trouble. You're just..."

The voice of the ancient magician stopped abruptly, and a deadly silence suddenly ushered in the cave.

The dead silence was mixed with vibrations, as if expressing the old man's intense emotions at the moment.

"what……?"

Rhodes was stunned.

What, what, this old man found out about me having sex with Qingzi! ?

"...Unbelievable."

When Rhodes panicked, the old man seemed to have adjusted his mood, and spoke in a peaceful tone again.

"I want to know your current name."

Now?

He truthfully replied, "Rod."

The smoke in the cave flickered like it was shaking its head.

"Really, so that's what happened." Ao Qi's grandfather sighed.

"Do you know me?" Rhodes asked alertly.

"No, I don't know you... Only the living are reflected in my eyes."

Rhode stared at the spirit body in front of him with wide eyes.

Qingzi, does your grandfather have dementia? What have you been talking about since just now?

"...what a surprise."

The grandfather of the Aozaki family said slowly: "I thought you came to me to investigate this struggle between the granddaughters."

"...Ah, yes."

Rhodes blinked, it seems that the old man confused me with someone he knew before.

He suddenly gained confidence, borrowed the donkey to go downhill and put his hands on his hips: "That's right, I'm here to ask you for an explanation!

Old man, why did you allow Qingzi and Chengzi to fight?Your words should be able to stop them, right? "

To the juvenile's righteous questioning, the old man just replied calmly.

"I think you should also understand that their struggle is entirely their own problem.

The two sisters are endowed with incompatible talents, so once they get along, it will become like this.

Even without the participation of my consciousness, friction cannot be avoided when they live together... However, it is not impossible to avoid conflict.

Although they only have ordinary willpower, if they are given something extraordinary, they can pass most of the trials.But the granddaughters did not choose this path. "

Rhodes was tired of his shirk responsibility and waved his hand.

"Enough, it's over anyway.

In this way, it shouldn't be a problem if the fifth magician is Qingzi, right? "

"........."

Ao Qi's grandfather was silent for a while and did not answer this question.

"I thought you wouldn't interfere with it, you told me so once.

Forget it, this is also your right, I have given up my ego and have no reason to ask.

But what exactly did you use to bribe her over at Orange?Is it one of his own heads? "

After saying these words, the smoke in the cave began to thin out.

"Waste of time for no reason - thought I saw an old friend, turned out to be just a brat.

Once a person lives too long, even if he doesn't want to, he will encounter all kinds of rare time and space encounters.

Although I really want to record your funny expressions and ridiculous remarks today for future jokes, but I don't think I will have the chance to see you again.

It's really... very regrettable. "

The scenery gradually dissipated, and the smoke drifted away with the voice of the old man.

The conversation just now became blurred like a dream, and only Rhodes was left alone in the cave.

The biting air reminded him that this was reality, not a dream.

"...What, I'm not a vagrant in the future, so I'm really working hard."

Rhode walked out of the cave with a wry smile.

……

……

……

"Yo, ladies. I kept you waiting for a long time."

Rhodes waved his hands at Qingzi and Youzhu who were frowning at the door.

"------"

Qingzi opened his mouth wide.

Youzhu with a demented expression.

"What's the matter, staring at my face so hard, could it be that my handsomeness has improved to a higher level?"

Looking at the smiling Rhodes, the girls couldn't believe their eyes.

Even for that old man, it would take at least a whole day to adjust one's memory.

They stood there in a daze for a moment, and then they quickly recovered and rushed towards Rhodes, each of them stretched out a hand and grabbed his arm.

The eyes of the two of them watching Rhodes were full of signals of disbelief and disapproval, and Rhodes could only shrug his shoulders.
