When Tracy is summoned by Everis and enters the workshop, she finds the room in a strange state.

　It was a messy room, littered with junk-like artifacts.
　The whole place was illuminated by a vague, light green light.
　The light source was not hard to find. It's a huge artifact in the middle of the room.

　Inside a cylindrical, glass-like container.
　Rene was floating in the glowing light green liquid. Her eyes are closed, and she looks as if she has died peacefully.
　Rene's lustrous, fresh, white naked body, without a stitch of hair, is wrapped by her softly spreading silver hair. The silver hair shone like light itself in the liquid that was emitting.

"Hey, is this a situation where it's okay for me to enter the room?
"Well, I'm sure the princess won't mind. Just sit down.

　Everis seemed to suggest a chair to a quizzical Tracy, but Tracy, unsure of which chair was which because of the mess of strange objects, decided to stand.

"What's with the nice aquarium?
I heard that when you got stuck in the fight the other day, you hurt yourself instead of taking care of yourself.
Yeah, I saw that.
The body can be replaced, but the body was damaged as well. I'm recovering fast because I feel like I'm about to fight.
...... Isn't it possible to melt five healthy people in this liquid?
Nice try.　That's 10.
Ew. ......

　I don't know the details, but it's supposed to be a blasphemous recovery procedure.

　It's true, we're nearing the end of the war.
　Noachurio's army has no choice but to retreat.
　The Marquis of Edfelt will announce the crown prince in time before the Noacurio army retreats, impressing Noacurio's backing and gaining the cooperation of the lords. The Noachurian army would probably leave right after that, but if he could get the word of the lords before that, he could get the flow going.

　However, if Noachurio's army retreats, Rene will attack the Marquis of Edfelt.
　He will destroy Teiracaines and take out Lord Marks and Crown Prince (to be) Gislain.
　The only countermeasures the Marquis could take would be to recruit adventurers or ask friendly lords to contribute troops to fill the holes in the Noa Curio army.
　However, even if the army returns, there is a good chance that the Holy Beasts will still remain.

　As a side note, around the time of the withdrawal of the Noachurian army, the lords who were anti-Hilbert are planning to install another crown prince. It is said that the Second Knight Commander Bertil is involved in this move and has been connected with the Gilesh Hattar Federation.

However, as a researcher of ...... magic, it is really interesting. If you do mind-reading for divine magic, you probably see the god more clearly than the person who has the god in their mind. I didn't know that, either.
　I don't know how you could see such a thing and not have a mental breakdown.
"God's enemies, huh?

　Tracy thinks to herself.
　Tracy's faith is weak. It's so weak that it could defeat a mallard. She thinks that God can't conveniently help her when she's really in pain.
　Even so, Tracy thought that gods (excluding evil gods) were somehow good, benevolent, and worthy of reverence.
　But listening to René, he seems to be an incomprehensible monster.
　Maybe it's because Rene is an undead enemy of God, or maybe it's just that way.

By the way, Tracy, what is it that I called you here for?
"Oh, what is it?

　When Tracy changed her mind and decided to save her troublesome thoughts for later, Everith threw in an even more troublesome topic.

You know, you look like that at your age .......
　Didn't they give you a couple of bad pills when you were a kid?

　Everis smirked, his eyes shining with curiosity.
　It was a very private topic, and the fact that he had been able to find out about it was a shock. But Tracy didn't let it get to her, and at best, she responded in a relaxed manner.

Half of it is true. The other half of the reason I'm pretty is because of my efforts.
"Well, excuse me. Can I ask you something about your situation?
Well, it's nothing to hide.
　My father, ...... well, he's my father, but he's a sorcerer who lives in hiding in Ciel-Teira.

　A sorcerer. I'm not sure if this is a good idea or not, but it's a good idea.
　Women, in particular, are called witches.

I'm not sure what to make of it, but I'm sure it's a good idea.
　I'm one of those people. I'm sure you'll agree that this is a great idea.
There are gender-specific spells, right?
Yeah. I don't know who the buyer was, but... I don't know who the buyer was, but I guess being a thief was part of the order, and that's where I learned it.
　But my father was killed by the Moon Eaters while I was still a child. Congratulations!

　It's not something to hide, but it's also not something to talk about. It's not something to hide, but it's not something to talk about. That's why I've only talked about this to a few people.

　My relationship with Everith and Rene is that of a servant and a servant. That's why I feel that I can talk about it like this without any hesitation.

I don't have any grudges against the Moon Eaters because we never had a father-son relationship, but they're only interested in killing evil sorcerers, so they won't help the remaining me.
　I've had no choice but to live my life on the sly. I've been trying to get into everyone's head with my charm and pretty face. I was trained to be a thief and became an adventurer.


I like it. I like it. It's nice to have a girl who is a bit of a bitter sweet with a hard upbringing when you think she's a spoiled sweetie brain. I like witches like that.
I like witches like that.

　The purple crystal eyes of Everis shine, and Tracy sags like a balloon rat stared at by a fire python.
　It's a good idea to have a good idea of what you're looking for. She can at least sense the difference in power just by her presence. If she wanted to, she could always make Tracy a basket case.

"Well, that's all right.
　You know you don't have long to live, don't you?　I've been thinking that you're not very sensitive to life threats.

　Tracy, as expected, was shocked by this.
　She was confronted with the fate of her life, which she had already been aware of.

I'm sure you can see that.
　...... Hey, how many more years do you think I'll live?
"I don't know exactly without a test, but I'd say ......5 years.
That's it. That's about right.

　I was well aware that my body was failing.
　I knew very well that my body was failing me. I had the appearance of a little girl, but my body never grew. I don't know what effect the potion I was given as a child is having on me, but there is no way this kind of recklessness is good for me.

"What if I told you I could prolong your life?

　Tracy gasped.
　...... It was always a mistake to express such a blatant reaction.

　Evelisse's mischievous grin deepened.
　A devil's grin, playing with people?　No, no, nothing like that. It's just a playful thing for Everis. That's why he's simply enjoying Tracy's reaction.

It would be cool to be able to say, "If I'm not going to be released and used to destroy the world, I'm going to die gracefully!
　It would be cool to be able to say ....... I'm the best, so if you can prolong my life, please do.

　I was trying to give up and accept my fate. But of course you don't want to die. Tracy wants to look in the mirror tomorrow.

"Preferably in a less evil way. You know, something that doesn't kill people.
Okay. I'll think of something.
But why extend your life? Did the witch like me?　Or does she think I'm too good to die?

　I'm sure you'll be able to figure it out.

"No. It's a request from the princess. The princess will pay for it, of course. I told her about your estimated life expectancy and she got curious.
　I should warn you, considering the price of the catalyst used in the spell, it's not a bargain to extend your life. You'll need regular maintenance, and you'll need to find someone to take over.
"What?
"This is your reward, in exchange for your salary.

　The answer was so unexpected it was almost funny.

"Reward?　Reward?　I don't need to be paid that, I'm being obeyed by this thing.

　With a thump, Tracy poked herself in the chest.
　In the event that you're not sure what you're looking for, you'll be able to find a lot more information on the web. It is implanted in Tracy's body.
　Tracy, bound by orders, cannot escape, disobey, or commit suicide, but is forced to serve faithfully.
　There's no need to give her money for her work.

That's the point. That's the point. The undead are automatically imprinted with loyalty, so that's fine, but me and Miaranse are serving the princess for our own purposes.
　But you're forced to.
　I think it's weird for her. I'm sure you're not the only one who has a problem with this.
"I don't get it!　What kind of world did you grow up in?
I don't know! What world did you grow up in?　I'm not kidding.

　I'm going to be used like this until the day I die, Tracy thought.
　She wasn't wrong. Just not in the way Tracy thought.

　This is what happens. I've looked for magic items that can prolong life or something like that.
　I've found a few ways to do it, but they're all rare and very expensive. They were beyond the reach of even the best adventurers. It was a matter of how many years' worth of income I had to invest to extend my life by one year, and in the end I had to give up. I thought I could do nothing but enjoy the rest of my life to the fullest.

　But I never thought I'd be saved in a place like this.

　Tracy looked at the transparent coffin-like tank in the middle of the room.
　Rene floated in the light green liquid and closed his eyes as if he was sleeping.


　"The Rose Princess of Hell". A horrible named monster who wants to destroy Ciel-Teira and eventually the world.
　Tracy is her prisoner and is forced to fight alongside her with a cursed item. In the midst of all this, she learns that Rene is more than just "evil".

　I'm not sure what to make of it, but I'm sure it'll be fine.

"...... have I fallen?
I'm not sure.　It's not like that,.......
You should come to this side. It'll be fun.
No, no, no, no, no!　No, no, no, no! I don't want to be a serious villain!　I'm a devilishly cute trickster adventurer who playfully cajoles everyone, but when the time comes, I'm capable of helping others on a whim.
"Hmm. So, I'm going to remove my servitude core when I have a good track record. I can see you obeying the princess of your own will while giving all kinds of reasons.
"......, don't they say you have a bad personality?
Hahahaha!　I'm sorry, cute boys make me want to pick on them. Well, I'm more into the aesthetic type than the cute type.
"Don't play with me!

　Shaking his fist, Tracy protests.
　I'm not ready to become an enemy of mankind or of God. Tracy is only cooperating with Rene because she is in the position of being subjugated by the "Slave Nucleus". She wanted to believe it herself.

Anyway, that's it. I'll be doing a thorough medical check later, so keep that in mind.
"Okay. ...... Take it easy on me.

　I'm sorry.

　In the event you're not sure what you're looking for, there are a few things you can do.

"Evelisse.
I'm not sure what to say, but I'd like to know what's going on. You're a bad person.
I'm not asleep. I wasn't asleep. I was just sitting there because the water was pouring in with my eyes and mouth open and I was stuck in a small space.

　You thought I was asleep, but I was just sitting still.
　In the event that you've got a lot of time, you'll be able to take a look at the best way to get the most out of your time. He can perceive his surroundings like a radar even when his eyes are closed and his ears are closed. This perceptual function is possible because a spirit body does not have an organ to process sight and hearing.

It's not a good idea to bullshit like this to gain favor with your subordinates.　It's an unconscious bruise.
I have a lot of questions about your knowledge.

　I'm sure you'll be happy to hear that. That was unacceptable.

"It's simple. If you've lived this long, you've met people who've reincarnated from Chikyu more than once.

　Everis replied lightly.
　I thought that Everis was also a reincarnation of another world, but it seems that he was not.

　I've heard that the Great God has brought in many reincarnated people and uses them as needed. So there are other reincarnated people besides Rene. Some of them may have fought against the demons in the past, and ended up as prisoners of the demon king's army.

It's a good idea to take a look at the website and see if you can find anything you like.
I'm not sure what to make of that.
　The time flow in Chicchu seems to be independent from our world. The path of the gods is connected to a time and place called 21 Seiki Nihon in Chikyu, and it seems that people from that area appear in the present, past and future of our world.
I don't know what you're talking about. ......
　And why did they think I was from another world?
In the event that you're not sure what to do, you'll be able to find out how to do it. I'm not sure what to make of it.

　I'm not sure what to make of that. In other words, the soul itself has a blessing (cheat).
　If this is a sign of a reincarnated person, it is only natural that people would notice it.

It's a good idea to have a good idea of what you're looking for.
"Great God. I'm not sure what to make of that.

　I'm not sure what to do.

I've got a feeling that's my kind of story. If you don't mind, I'd like to hear it to pass the time.
"Sure.
Okay, I'll bring out the wine and snacks.

　In a movie-like fashion, Everith pulls out a mystery jerky, a bottle of wine and a golden cup from a corner of the room.
　As she sank down on the sofa with a distressed gesture, the cup and wine bottle lifted into the air by themselves and poured out the blood-red wine.

By the way, is the princess formerly a man?
I'm not sure.

　Rene nearly drowned in the culture medium.
