Sis-Con With Dimensional Chat Group-Chapter 2099: Discussion 2

After what had happened before, they started their serious discussion. Probably.

"So, Shiroyasha, who am I going to be fighting tomorrow?" Yuu asked.

"Sorry, but I can only tell you the name of the community. There are two other communities participating in the finals other than the "no-name" and the Salamandra," Shiroyasha said as she snapped her finger, summoning a Geass Roll on the table so everyone could see about the Gift Game that was about to be held tomorrow.

Everyone leaned their bodies forward to read the Geass Roll, reading the name of the participant of the Gift Game tomorrow.

Unlike everyone else, Asuka's reaction was surprising. "Will-O-Wisp and Rattenfanger?!"

"Rattenfanger? A german, huh?" Izayoi murmured. "So that means tomorrow's opponent will be the Piper of Hamelin, huh?"

No one said much, but Kuro Usagi reacted exaggeratedly. "The Piper of Hamelin?!"

"What are you talking about, kid?" Shiroyasha asked with a stern expression, and her aura changed from playful to serious.

"Huh?" Izayoi was unfazed, but he was confused.

"...Sorry." Shiroyasha sighed. "There's no way for you to know this, but the Piper of Hamelin was the name of the community that served a certain Demon Lord."

"Demon Lord?"

"This Demon Lord summoned demons from over 200 different grimoires and led the community, Grim Grimoire."

"But they should have died after being defeated in the Gift Game with a certain community."

Hearing this, Haru somehow understood why someone might decide to summon this Demon Lord. After all, if someone could defeat this Demon Lord in the past, then it should be possible to defeat this Demon Lord again, right?

With those words, Haru had confirmed who had summoned the Demon Lord, but he also understood why Shiroyasha had decided not to tell anyone who had summoned this Demon Lord since once it was announced, it would cause unstoppable chaos on the North Side.

"After the Demon Lord died, the Piper of Hamelin should have lost its power, as well. Actually, how do the Rattenfanger and the Piper of Hamelin have anything to do with each other, boy?" Shiroyasha asked.

Izayoi looked at Haru and gave him a smile.

Haru looked at Izayoi for a moment, then looked at Asagi, who was sitting on his lap.

"Let me explain this," Asagi said and gathered everyone's attention on her. Even though she didn't seem to do anything during their stay in the Little Garden, with Haru's help, even though there wasn't any internet, she was able to use her power to hack into the Little Garden Network. By hacking the Little Garden Network, she could get various information easily.

After all, unlike Kuro Usagi, Asagi was smarter, so she could understand what could be done with Little Garden Network, and it was so useful for information gathering, especially for this kind of situation.

Still, the only people who knew about this matter was only Haru and Asagi since it was better to keep this matter a secret since no one knew what would happen if someone knew about this matter, including the members of the "no-name" community, especially when they were about to return to their world. After all, if someone knew about this matter, then it would attract trouble to the "no-name" community.

"You're all aware that the story of "Piper of the Hamelin" is included in Grimm' Fairy Tales, right?" Asagi asked.

They nodded.

"Hamelin is the name of a city where the story is said to have taken place. The following is engraved on a stone monument in the city. In the year 1284, the day of Saints John and Paul, on the 26th of June, 130 children born in Hamelin were seduced by a piper, dressed in all kinds of colors, and lost at the place of execution near the Koppen. The Piper of Hamelin mentioned in Grimm's Fairy Tales is the Rattenfanger. He is known as the rat-catcher, the man who controls rats," Asagi said.

"Control rats?"

Haru, Jin, and Izayoi nodded at the same time, and they thought that the Demon Lord should be related to the Piper of Hamelin.

However, Asuka was dumbfounded and looked at the fairy who was sleeping on her lap with a complicated expression.

"Well, whether or not he's the Demon Lord of the prophecy, it's quite likely that there are remnants of Grim Grimoire living in hiding. I'll put people on the watch to make sure Sandora doesn't lose face, but if the worst is coming, all of you must do your part," Shiroyasha said.

The majority of them nodded, but Haru looked at Asuka, who still showed a complicated expression.

They didn't stay any longer and decided to take a rest since tomorrow they would watch Yuu's Gift Game that would be held quite early.

Haru walked out quite late and looked at Asuka for a moment, and called her name softly. "Asuka."

"Ah, yes?" Asuka was startled and quickly looked at Haru.

"Are you alright?" Haru asked.

Asuka opened her mouth before she closed it again. She then looked at the fairy on her lap then asked, "Haru."

"Hmm?"

"Do you think this fairy is a subordinate of the Demon Lord?" Asuka asked.

"What do you think?" Haru asked.

Asuka was dumbfounded and asked back, "What do I think?"

"It doesn't really matter whether this fairy is a member of the Demon Lord's community or not. What's important or not is whether you believe that this fairy is a member of the Demon Lord's community or not?" Haru asked.

"What do I believe?" Asuka looked at the fairy on her lap, and she could see that it was still sleeping peacefully, which somehow made her smile. "No, I don't think that she's a member of the Demon Lord's community."

"Well, that's it. You don't need to worry about it," Haru said with a smile.

Asuka smiled, but then she asked, "But what if the Demon Lord appears and takes her?"

"Our purpose in coming to this place is to defeat the Demon Lord so that things can also be said of our loot too, if she's really a member of the Demon Lord's community. If you like her, then just take care of her." Haru patted Asuka's head gently and said, "Don't think too much."

"Don't pat my head!" Asuka swept Haru's hand away with a blush.

"Well, I'll take a bath again. You should rest." Haru didn't care about Asuka's reaction and waved his hand as he left.

Looking at Haru's back, Asuka couldn't help but smile and think that this guy really knew what she wanted to hear.

'Unfortunately...'

Asuka sighed and thought that all the best guys had been taken, which somehow made her slightly sad.

Still, as Haru walked into the bath again, he noticed someone had followed him, but he didn't think too much since he didn't mind someone accompanying him.
