Reincarnation Monarch

"... what is some purpose? You know that?

To Elba's frank question, Chester grinned inside.

(She's an honest kid. I'm not a bad kid. I'm just curious. So to this point, I guess I've come myself. Of course, there will be no lies in her words of spare time. It really surrounds boredom. I would know that if I watched her. Whatever you say, you seem to enjoy confronting me... If so, you shouldn't hide this one in your hand and reveal it honestly...)

Shester thought inside out and quickly decided on his future policy.

"... no, I don't know it's clear. It just feels that way."

"... purpose... purpose of the man... what else is there besides money?... I don't think so..."

"No, there is."

Elba is confused by Chester's assertiveness.

"You assured me? Then there's got to be some basis for this, right? Say it."

Shester nodded greatly at Elba's urging.

"It's a tattoo put in your backs. What does this point to… When I thought about it, some purpose came to mind for former Archbishop Fran."

"... you got tattoos?... What the hell does that mean? I have no idea."

Shester answered even more naturally the question of Elba.

"Tattoos are put on the backs of four children. And collecting these four tattoos supposedly brings up a map of where the treasure was hidden. That's good, huh?

Elba nodded at Shester's inquiry.

"That's right. At least that's what I hear."

"Fine. Then think about why you put the tattoos on the kids' backs in the first place."

Then Elba frowned and looked difficult.

"... that's... not to be easily robbed of an important treasure, is it?

Then Shester shook his head sideways on this.

"Isn't that too hard to collect treasures? All the kids, including you, live in a bunch of pieces, right? And without any interaction. If so, isn't it inconvenient to try to dig up treasures when you need them? When a pressing challenge emerges, you're going to write to the four of us from there and have them gather together, collect tattoos, and then go out looking for treasure? Moreover, those four children are likely to have a uniform resentment of former Archbishop Fran, though perhaps. At least you... you resent me, don't you?

"... naturally. That guy is...... okay. Keep talking..."

"... oh, that would be good. This means that if the children fail to respond to the convocation, they will no longer be able to take out the treasure. When that happens, can we say that this is too problematic a way to hide treasures?

That's what Shester said, peeking into Elba's face as he peered.
