felt a little relieved.
However, thinking about it, the most suspicious person is not Sylphy.
"Then, me?"
"You are likely the same. A body that can harbor such a great amount of magic is usually not born."
"...I thought I managed to expand my amount of magic with my own efforts."
"Of course. It is only because your body has the characteristic to harbor such a great quantity of magic. If you did not train your magic since childhood, you would only have a little more than an ordinary person. Maybe about the same as Sylphiette. That tremendous quantity of magic is the crystallization of your effort. You can be proud of yourself."
Somehow I was praised.
I wonder if it was fine to be proud.
"Ehm, so I am not Laplace himself, right?"
"No. The time until Laplace will be reborn is a little farther ahead in the future."
I see.
I was a little bit relieved when I heard that I was not Laplace himself.
I'm also glad to know of the origin of my magic.
Though I did feel a little bad for Ruijerd because it was Laplace's power.
However, power is power.
It is up to oneself how to use the power.
But that is not what I was worried about.
"..."
Orsted was looking at me for a while, but let out a sigh and said.
"You can relax. Although you are also a reincarnated person...according to my memory the person known as Rudeus Greyrat does not exist."
"...That is?"
"The fact that you have the Laplace factor, means that before you were born you possessed an aptitude towards magic and a big magic quantity. It would not be strange if the soul could not handle harboring all that amount of magic in your body."
"Not being able to handle it means?"
"It means originally it was probably stillborn. Then you entered inside."
Stillborn.
I see.
Then it's good.
The fact that I did not kill Mr. Rudeus is good.[13]
I did not want to think that I robbed him of such a great, happy life.
It was good that it did not become a sad history, with Paul and Zenith's first child being dead.
Hence it's good.
All right.
Let's change it.
I am Paul's and Zenith's child, Rudeus.
The one and only Rudeus Greyrat.
With that mindset, let's move on to the next question.
