My mother's love song

Several years have passed since Aozaki Aoko said this and destroyed the Seal Designated Execution Department.

I thought I would never see her again, but she came back to the Clock Tower and came to visit me like this!

Could it be that Miss Aozaki has changed her mind?

Lionel looked at himself in the mirror, his face filled with excitement and joy.

To avoid misunderstanding, I would like to emphasize that Lionel does not have any romantic feelings.

He simply had male desires for the woman Aozaki Aoko.

Anyway, what about the man traveling with Aozaki? Never mind!

He tidied it up hurriedly and then rushed to the director's office.

"Hey! It's been a few years since we last met, but you're still as rock as ever, Ms. Aozaki! I can tell without even looking that you've definitely become even more rock than before! Anyway, welcome to Rockslot!"

Lionel opened the door of the director's office without knocking and shouted excitedly.

"Since you've come to me, can I revel in this as my last chance?!"

In the director's office, which was cleaned every day but never used, a man and a woman who looked to be in their twenties stood in a stern posture.

Needless to say, one of them is Professor Lenore's dream lover (sexual desire only) Aozaki Aoko.

Although I had a bad feeling the moment I opened the door that the person coming to visit was the elder sister of the Aozaki family, I was glad that it was the younger sister who came.

I'm so sorry, Levrenol, who loves his sister, made a condescending and victorious statement to the other personality in his body.

Aoko's signature beautiful long hair and exquisite oriental beauty. Lenore has known her for almost 10 years, but her appearance has not changed at all, as if she had used magic to keep her youth at the age of 20.

However, today's Aozaki Aoko is a little different from what Lionel knows her to be. She is not dressed in the simple and practical style of solid color T-shirt + jeans as usual.

The white lace shirt paired with a leather skirt shows off her perfect figure without any hesitation.

Did she dress up specially to see me?!

Professor Lenore thought happily.

However, this man's delusion was shattered in the next moment by the woman he loved.

"Hi~ Sorry to bother you, Mr. Curator."

Aozaki Aoko pointed at Rhodes beside him and said, "This guy wants me to take him to see you no matter what."

Unfortunately, Qingzi didn't come here specifically to see him.

"Nice to meet you, Dr. Flauros. I have heard a lot about you."

The young man traveling with him politely took off his hat and placed it on his chest and greeted him.

It was only then that Lenore finally shifted his attention from Qingzi to Rod beside her.

The young man who appeared in the director's office had a handsome face and emerald eyes.

Her bright blonde hair was of moderate length, her limbs were long, and her physique looked very strong.

Just like a model... No.

A prince from a fairy tale? A knight from a legend?

A young man who is so handsome that he gives people a surreal feeling.

""

Lenore stared at Rod's face, standing there for a long time without being able to speak, and just kept looking back and forth between Rod and Aoko's faces.

"Um...Dr. Floros?"

Rhodes glanced at Qingzi out of the corner of his eye and said with a wink: What's wrong with this guy?

Qingzi shrugged: I don’t know.

“…Uh, uh.”

Sweat broke out on Lenore's forehead, and he involuntarily took a half step back as he stared at Rhodes.

The reason why he showed such an expression was not because he recognized Rhode's true identity or anything, but simply

From a scholar's perspective, he felt that Rhodes and Aoko were a perfect match.

It's not just their looks, both of them have such beauty that people can't help but look at them when they walk on the street...but what's more important is the confidence and composure that can be seen in their eyes.

This is what is called noble temperament.

Compared to the rulers of this magic academy city [Clock Tower], the guys who call themselves monarchs [Lords], these two outsiders are more like the king and princess walking in the world of magic.

Just by seeing Rhodes and Aoko standing side by side, Lionel felt a huge sense of inferiority overflowing from his chest.

He couldn't help but wonder, is this guy actually a magician like himself?

"…Tsk, what's wrong with you today, Flauros."

Looking at the professor of archaeology standing there in a daze, Aozaki Aoko scratched her hair and decided to break this inexplicable situation herself.

She spread her palms in front of Rhodes and said, "Let me introduce myself. Listen carefully, don't be intimidated.

This is the well-known Ya in the magic world."

"and many more!"

Lenore interrupted her and asked abruptly: "...What is your relationship?"

Rather than the name of the young magician in front of him, Lenore cared more about the relationship between him and Aoko.

“Huh…? Hmm~”

Qingzi thought for only a moment before answering, "Fuck buddy... No, a fixed sex partner and the object of my affection, that's more appropriate.

Well, let’s just say he’s the only man I love in this world.”

At the end of her speech, Aoko's voice became softer and softer, and she scratched her cheek like a shy girl.

""

Professor Lenore's eyes widened and then he screamed.

"Aaaaaaaaaaa!"

The forty-year-old man didn't care about his age and just knelt on the ground.

The last chance that Lionel Gussing had imagined was gone before nightfall.

same.

Rhode's visit obviously failed to reverse the trajectory of human nature.

Frustrated, Leif Lenore Flauros joined Chaldea the following year.

……

……

……

"That man, Professor Leif, will become the Magic King's chief pawn in a year."

After they left Lenore's research building, Rod got straight to the point.

“…H-Hah!?”

Rhode's topic was so exaggerated that Qingzi was incoherent and didn't know how to respond.

Aoko is one of the women in the world that Rhodes trusts the most.

She learned everything about the burning of human nature from him, but the only thing he never told her was Leif's story.

"Wait, wait! Rod, are you kidding me?!"

"I told you not to call me by that name today."

Rhodes calmly walked and waved his cane: "Miss Cangqi, please call me..."

"How could Mr. Floros become an accomplice in destroying the world?"

"It is what it is."

Rhodes turned his head and stared at Qingzi and said, "Trust me."

After looking into his eyes for a moment, Aoko realized that he was not joking.

"…Yeah, yeah, I get it, but why? Why would he want to destroy the world?"

"Who knows? Maybe he turned evil because his dream girl was taken away by a man who came from nowhere?"

"What are you talking about?"

Aoko tilted her head, looking confused.

Until the end, he was unable to successfully convey his ideas to Aozaki Aoko, and even Rod felt a little sympathetic towards Lionel.

Then Rhodes explained to her.

Leif will enter Chaldea next year.

There, he witnessed an inhumane experiment being carried out on a young girl, and became completely desperate about the world. He eventually became a minion of the Magic King who intended to destroy human history.

"To think that such a thing would happen..."

"Flauros is a very rare magician with imaginary attributes. The Magic King may have noticed this."

The imaginary space is like a dimensional pocket. Anything that falls into it will become something that is not bound by space or time.

Professor Rafe used this property as a time capsule.

It is determined that there will be an imaginary number user like oneself in the future, and things that have been lost in the future and things that will be considered necessary in the future will continue to be preserved.

Through this method, he sent out the Holy Grail at various nodes in human history. Except for the last Mesopotamian singularity, all other Holy Grails were sent out by him.

"He actually triggered six singularities. He's really outstanding." Aoko said with a complicated expression.

"No, wait! If Flauros is the root of all evil, wouldn't it be bad to leave him alone? Should we go back and imprison him?"

thump.

Rhodes tapped Qingzi's head gently with his staff.

"Idiot, do you think that guy who has completed the incineration of human nature is not on guard? If we show hostility towards Flauros, the Magic King will descend from the sky.

Human Burning is something that has already happened. What do you think would happen if we tried to eliminate its source at this time?

The grandfather paradox will not happen. The fundamentals of human nature... the spirit particle recorder will make the outcome of the battle develop towards the "facts that have already happened".

In other words, in order to prevent a paradox from occurring in what has already happened, human nature will try every possible means to make us lose.”

Aoko covered her head and nodded thoughtfully: "I see...it makes sense."

"Well... the most important thing is that my ultimate goal is not to [stop the Incineration of Humanity] or [defeat Goetia]. What happens to human history is none of my business."

"…You're saying that again."

Aoko pursed her thin lips, and Rhodes looked at her and smiled.

"By the way, I'm very weak now, maybe even weaker than when I was [Lord]... I'm just a third-rate modern magician, so don't expect me to be able to fight."

"Then there is a new question. Since you know that you can't stop Flauros from turning evil, what are you doing here today?"

Looking at Qingzi who tilted her head in deep thought, Rhodes reached out and put his arms around her waist, then bit her ear and said.

"The main reason I came here today was to tell that guy that Aozaki Aoko is mine."

"Woo!"

Aoko's fair face instantly turned red.

"You are such an idiot...you are beyond help."

While she was moaning, she leaned her head on Rhodes' shoulder.

"Let's go back."

"No, actually we have something else to do today. We have to go see Sister Youzhu later."

"Youzhu!? Eh... is she in London now?"

"No, that guy heard that I was with you, so he dropped out of his job in Japan and flew over here on a private plane."

“…Haha.”
