Luxion and Creare were discussing this one.

　Creare's concern is still about Ideal.

''In the end, that guy put his promise to the past master first.

　I analyzed the data I got from Ideal and found out some things.

　One is that the holy tree is a plant that absorbs the magic element created by the old humans.

　This was responsible for regenerating the earth that had been devastated by the magic element.

　Unfortunately, it was unfinished and would have had many problems.

　It was good to take in the magic element and purify the air, but it also had the danger of going out of control.

　And he was too strong as an individual.

　That's also why he was preventing the next generation from growing up.

　Another thing - Ideal had lost his own master and crew in the war against the newcomers.

　He had been repaired at the base for maintenance and was under orders to stand by.

　Later, the Old Humans were defeated.

　The base was abandoned, and Ideal spent a long time at the base under standby orders.

　He used Serge who appeared there and cancelled the standby order - but he seemed to be in a hurry to do something.

''An important part of the recorded data is missing. After all, we still don't know what the threat is.''

'I can't help it, that one was working on a handful of things. But I'm sure he had good reason to push himself.

　Luxion didn't understand why Ideal was in such a hurry, either.

''If you needed a case to grow a sapling, you could have prepared as many as you wanted if you told me.''

　They could have helped each other, but they didn't.

　Why?

'He gave up on you because he thought you wouldn't betray the master, didn't he?　Or you've put your master in danger.

　Luxion predicted why he considered Rion to be dangerous.

'Did he think that the Master's character would get in their way?'

''It's possible that the master will. I'm sure it's the master who will stop Serge from becoming the puppet of Ideal at some point. He's decided that they'll definitely clash in the future.''

　Ideal wanted to fight Rion and Luxion in the Republic where he could give his all.

''--I was pulling energy from the Holy Tree, you know. I was making quite an impossible modification, and it's abnormal to abandon my original form.''

　It had abandoned its original performance as a supply ship.

　It had been forcibly loaded with weapons and was out of balance as a ship.

''If we can beat you, then they were going to use your main body, weren't they?''

''I suppose. I'm wondering what he wanted to protect the Holy Tree from, even if he made himself part of the defense device.''

　In exchange for performance, Ideal became restricted when operating outside the Republic.

　It was the price of modifying himself in order to protect the Republic - the base and the Holy Tree.

　From such an Ideal's point of view, he would have wanted to strike Luxion, who could move freely, as soon as possible.

　And he would have wanted to take down Rion, who was in his way - a dangerous one in the future, as soon as possible.

''After all, you couldn't get along from the beginning, could you?''

'It's not surprising, since Ideal didn't intend to,'

"It's sad. We're both in the same old camp.

I'm not sure I agree with you that they're going to see me the same way as Clairvoyant.

Horrible!

　As he checked the records that Ideal had left behind, Clairé changed the subject.

''I wonder what's going to happen to the Republic now?''

'There should be dissatisfaction with the current top brass, so a revolt could happen at any time. Some aristocrats are also disgruntled and have fled to exile. It was likely to flow to the kingdom as well, so I took steps to deal with it.''

'Oh, you're right, you should be careful about being outsmarted twice.

''-- That happened because Serge didn't know he was that ignorant. It's because he didn't properly understand what it means to fight a master.''

　When Cleare says 'yes, yes' and listens away, Luxion talks about the future of the Republic.

''There's a high probability of rebellion and civil war. The Raoult family has too much of a grudge against Serge, you see. Those who know what's going on will resent Serge. --and they can't bear the pressure in Lelia.'

But he's a miko, so he has to carry them around, right?

''That's right. ''It's hard work for a sapling priestess and others who don't have much power.''

　Claire seems to have something on her mind.

''--But you got the saplings, right?　Can we leave it alone?

　The holy tree sapling that Lelia had been entrusted with by Emile.

　Rion had also heard about it from Noel.

　After hearing that story, Rion had said, "That was Emile's curse.

　He missed Lelia, saying that if Emile was taking revenge, he didn't have to deal with it himself.

　In fact, Luxion thinks so too.

'With the saplings, Lelia will be trapped by Emile for the rest of her life. That will be her punishment.''

You had everything you ever wanted, and now you can't have it again.

　Lelia, and judging from what I've heard from Noel and Clément, I'm judging.

'In fact, they seem to love Emile more now than they did before.

'You don't find out until you lose it. Poor thing.

"Besides, the Republic cannot be a threat to us in the future. We have problems at home alone, and now how the rest of the world operates - the future of the Republic is going to be tough.

Strange that the new masters of the company are all boys to be attacked. I feel like we're doomed.

　Luxion said about the targets of the second film--.

'All of them were problematic - they were all men with problems. Of all of them, Emile seemed to be the most mature, and he did the toughest thing.''

　It must have been a mental interference from the Holy Tree.

　Luxion believed that the Holy Tree was the main reason for their arrogance.

　Besides the mental interference, the powerful force called the Holy Tree was driving them crazy.

　Clairvoyant--.

''They were all sick, weren't they? That makes me wonder about the targets of the third one's attack. In fact, due to some kind of influence, they are already far removed from the original work that Marie-chan is talking about, aren't they?　Don't worry about the original story or anything like that, you should get the information first and look into it thoroughly. There are reincarnated people out there, and we don't know what's going on. Things are going to happen that we couldn't have predicted. If we were to guess, it could be something as outlandish as a change in gender. I want the master to be prepared to accept this with a more open mind.

　What is he talking about, this guy?　Like that, Luxion was looking at Clairvoyant.

''-- Well, I'll leave the information gathering to you. I'll accompany the master, so in the meantime, I'll ask you to escort the holy tree and maintain the partner. Don't do anything strange.''

You don't trust me.

　Luxion thinks about the future.

''Mylene is making a move. She's strong enough to give up her own daughter in order to bring the master under her control. We need to gather information on that area as well.''

'I've got it. So tell the Master to be nice to Clairele because she's doing her best. Okay?

"You're acting strangely today.

'No, it's not!　You care too much about it!'

　Leaving Creare spinning around in a circle, Luxion analyzed Ideal's data.
