Chapter 315.2. The Falling Floating Castle
“Go back to sleep!”
“I won’t get reincarnated in another world, so I’ll be fine!”
“Mama will be angry, you know?”
With a firm push, I was tucked back into her futon. An angry mama was scarier than any monster.
While comfortably tucked in her futon, I assessed my condition. The intense pain was gone; now I felt only a lingering soreness, like what you’d experience after strenuous exercise.
“I’m really okay, you know.”
“I can’t trust ‘okay’ when it comes to your health. Come on, stay warm, and go to sleep?”
Ranko-san gently adjusted the blanket, and I smiled as she snuggled in. I felt like she had forgotten something. But if I couldn’t remember, it probably wasn’t important.
“Is papa really that busy?”
I had thought he would come immediately and was feeling lonely.
Mama furrowed her brows with a troubled look.
“Yes, he is. There’s a duel between the families approaching, and he’s been quite occupied. But today, something unimaginable happened.”
“What happened?”
Mi-chan had no clue. What could it be?
“Well, the Floating Castle crashed. Unbelievably, it split into two.”
“The Floating Castle, the Emperor’s castle that flew in the sky?”
“Yes, there’s chaos now. The news is entirely focused on it, and the military and samurai groups are fervently searching for the culprits. It was the terrorist group ‘Nidhogg’ that attacked.”
“Wow. So, there’s a scary terrorist group like that? I think I’ve heard of them before.”
[This dog has a high survival instinct. It transforms into the optimal form of a dog that won’t be killed.]
Grandpa explained with a bitter expression. So, in mythology, the fierce wolf was tied to Gleipnir, but in reality, things were different! The Pomeranian was tied to a rope! That’s why even Odin couldn’t kill her. I see!
It was a bit more reasonable to keep Fenrir as a pet compared to tossing Jormungandr into the sea.
She was a pomeranian who climbed the cardboard box with determination., Then popped out, barking and wagging her tail. She acted like an innocent little puppy who neither spoke human language nor understood it.
It was understandable that no one saw this as a threat.
“Uhm... is the puppy a get-well gift?”
Mama looked puzzled, thinking a puppy as a get-well gift was quite unconventional.
“Yes, my disciple thought a puppy would be a good get-well gift.”
“Mii-chan?”
“I wanted a 3rd pet.”
Mii-chan stared at Mom, who was giving her an icy look, and quickly covered her face with the blanket, pretending to sleep. Well, she thinks she can have as many pets as she wants.
“I’m sorry if this has caused any inconvenience. Thank you, Great Arch Mage. So, is this a magic sword?”
“Yes, it is. The situation is quite chaotic. It’s intended for dueling, but you never know.”
Grandpa’s voice turned cautious, and his lone eye gleamed. Hmm, is there something odd going on?
“I hope it’s just my unnecessary concern. My disciple, it might be a good idea to awaken your parents’ mana here. It should be okay to use magic a few times, right?”
“Yes.”
It seemed that something troublesome had happened due to the Floating Castle being dropped by Nidhogg.
Curse you, Nidhogg. I won’t forgive you!
But first, let’s keep this puppy as a familiar.
