Re:Zero: Starting from the Great Transformation

Pergius shook his head.

This answer was also what Ron expected.

Ron sighed. It would be very strange if the Seven Stars could not be found at this point in time.

Because the Seven Stars clearly have a mission that can only be accomplished in this era, but they did not appear in this era.

What exactly is the so-called destiny?

Why did it become like this?

Ron didn't understand.

However, thinking of what Sallya said before she left, he still said:

"Lord Pergius, regarding the war provoked by the Ghostly Empire..."

"If you want me to help the Asura Kingdom repel the Demonic Empire, then there's no need to ask. You've known for a long time that my strength wouldn't be wasted on such a thing. Besides, I have a feeling Laplace will be resurrected soon..."

"...Yes, I understand."

The answer is as expected.

Ron didn't continue to persuade him, he knew that this was Perkius' principle.

Everything else was negotiable, but as long as Laplace was involved, there would be absolutely no compromise.

"You just said you wanted to go to the Kingdom of Asura, right? Although most of the teleportation magic circles there have been destroyed, there are still some relatively hidden ruins that can be used. Shivalir, send him there."

Perkius said.

"Yes."

Silvalir nodded slightly.

……

This trip to the sky fortress ended quickly.

Ron even wondered if he was kicked out.

Apparently, as the time for Laplace's resurrection progressed, Perkius had begun to focus all his energy on this matter. Even Ron couldn't say anything to Perkius at this critical juncture.

But he hadn't had much hope in the first place.

"Well, Mr. Ron, see you again if we have the chance."

"Well, see you later."

Ron said goodbye to Silvalier with a smile.

Having said that, Ron felt that there might be no chance of them meeting again.

……

……

After leaving the sky fortress, Ron was transferred to a ruin in the south of the Asura Kingdom.

Now the northern part of the Asura Kingdom has been plunged into war and has become the front line of the war between the Ghost Empire and the Asura Kingdom.

The South is not peaceful either.

The Dragon King Kingdom in the east has also been gathering strength, often clashing with the Asura Kingdom at the jaws of the Red Dragon. Perhaps they've sensed the war between the Ghost Empire and the Asura Kingdom and are looking to exploit it.

That being said.

Perhaps because they were intimidated by the Asura Kingdom's national strength and worried that the country would continue to fight, they never officially declared war, but only occasionally caused some minor frictions on the border.

Although there was no war, it looked like a precursor to war to anyone.

Maybe in five or ten years...

The entire Asura Kingdom will cease to exist.

And the demon god Laplace might also be resurrected at that point in time.

By then, will the human race, having experienced civil war, be able to deal with the threat from the demon god as they did back then?

Thinking about all this mess, Ron felt more and more that the world was only one step away from collapse. So he wanted to see the girl more and more, the girl who changed his fate and called him countless times.

He started from the ruins and headed north, passing through several towns.

Running around non-stop for several days in a row.

The flesh of the undead demon gave him unimaginable endurance. As long as his magic power was not completely exhausted, his physical strength and energy seemed endless.

Just like this, a few days passed.

Ron came to a small village on the western border of the Asura Kingdom.

There are not many households in this small village. It is more like a temporary settlement built by a few homeless people on the plains than a village. It doesn't even have a name.

Ron slowed down near the village entrance.

Someone noticed his arrival and came forward to greet him.

"Excuse me, is there a lady named Lilia in this village?"

"Lilia? Oh, you mean the daughter of the Kulais family? The courtyard on the far west is his home."

"Thank you so much."

Ron headed in the direction the villagers pointed.

The strange thing is that although Ron had been rushing here with great impatience, when the time came for them to meet, he was not so excited at all.

Looking back, I realize the various events I have experienced since coming into this world.

Fate has invisibly determined many things, but at least every decision you make comes from your heart.

Love what you love and hate what you hate.

I have never been a slave to fate.

Just when his mind was torn between thoughts.

He had arrived at the gate of the yard that the villagers had just mentioned.

The not very spacious yard was surrounded by a wooden fence. The fence was not too high. Looking over the top of the fence, you could see a low bungalow made of earthen bricks in the yard.

And in the middle of the yard, there is a chair.

A girl with long golden hair was sitting on a chair.

Her eyes were slightly closed and her body was relaxed, as if she was taking a nap. She looked quiet and peaceful.

The afternoon sun shone through the clouds onto her, giving her a golden outline. The climate of the Asura Kingdom was not as harsh as that of the northern continent, so she wouldn't catch a cold even if she took a nap outdoors.

Suddenly, the girl opened her eyes.

As if she had sensed something, she looked up at the fence. When she saw Ron, a smile appeared on her delicate, porcelain-doll-like face.

"Finally, I see you...

"My hero."

Heroes: 180, The Girl Who Calls for Miracles and the Hero from Another World

Seeing the smile on the girl's face.

Ron felt as if something in his heart had finally been released.

at last……

this day.

Both he and the girl in front of him had waited for too long.

The girl was not very old, and looked to be about ten years old. Her clothes were not particularly fancy, just a plain dress commonly seen in the countryside. Her calves looked a little thin under the skirt, and she was wearing white socks and plain cloth shoes.

She's just a common girl in the countryside.

However, the first time he saw the girl, Ron felt that she was different.

What are the specific differences?

The desire for life.

The hope for freedom.

Such a pure and simple desire is fully reflected in this girl who looks only ten years old. Her eyes are always emitting such light as if boiling water, which makes people unable to help but be moved.

The girl stood up and walked in front of Ron.

She lifted her skirt slightly and saluted Ron with a smile.

"We finally meet, my hero."

"Thank you for coming."

“…Is it really you?”

Ron couldn't help but ask the doubts in his heart.

"The girl who called out to me in my dreams, the girl who appeared in my consciousness after death, and the person who summoned me to this world... are they all you? You know all of this?"

The girl smiled and nodded.

"Yes, I know everything, because this is all I desire in my heart. I sincerely hope for this future, and so I changed the world's past."

"..."

Did the anticipation of such a future change the past?

It’s such a simple and easy to understand ability of the Son of God.

Ron knew that the girl in front of him was no ordinary person.

She looks like just an ordinary girl from the countryside, but she possesses the power to change the world.

She is the Son of God.

"I've been waiting for you for a long, long time."

The girl said with a smile.

"If you don't mind, could you please find a place for me to talk alone? I really want to talk to you."

"Of course... yes, but where?"

"The sun is shining brightly under the big tree on the hillside over there."

The girl rolled her eyes and pointed at the big tree in the distance.

Ron nodded.

However, even though he said this, he didn't see the girl take any action.

It seems like he is waiting for something.

"What's wrong? Aren't you going over?"

"Actually, I... am not used to long journeys."

Long journey?

Ron estimated that this distance was no more than two or three hundred meters. Could this be considered a long journey?

But looking at the girl's thin calves, it is definitely not the case that she has been exercising for a long time.

That makes sense.

"Um, could you please carry me over there?"

The girl crossed her arms over her chest and whispered softly.

Ron scratched his head.

"Yes, yes...Okay, please relax."

"what……"

Amid the girl's exclamation.

Ron put one hand around the girl's knees and the other around her back, gently lifting her up against his chest. Then he walked lightly and quickly towards the big tree on the hill not far away.
