Lombardo listened to Shester and said he was exhaling deeply.
Then Chester, sitting in the front of Lombardo, explained quietly with a wrinkle between his eyebrows.
"Yes, I was wondering if it might be that magical identity that erased you from the example of El or Gaius..."
"... is that it... that true sphere space... the scholar named Glenn said that the identity of that strange sight is its ultimate magic, right?
"Yes, there are actually very few Ultimate Magic materials, but he seems convinced"
"What does Shester think?
"Like Glenn, I am convinced, too. That doesn't mean there's any certainty whatsoever. But there's something in me that probably speaks for sure."
"... right... ok. Its ultimate magic and hexagonal underground tunnels are of real concern, but I agree with you that we should go back to Audine first. Whatever it is, we have to fix it and keep them safe."
Then Shester leaned slightly towards his ankle.
"... to hide? Instead of sending it to their houses, you're telling them to hide in Odine's den?
"Oh yeah. Think about it, Shester. It would be nice to send them to their houses, but not to be kidnapped again, neither an ex nor a child. I guess each of them was kidnapped near their hometown in the first place? Then it's natural to assume that Calvin's men, who heard about their beauty, systematically kidnapped them? Then wouldn't Calvin let his men keep an eye on their houses when he realized they had disappeared? We just sent them to that place, and they're the ones who get kidnapped, aren't they? Didn't I?"
Chester wrapped her tongue around Lombardo's long and wide tongue.
"... certainly... I didn't have that much thought. Shame on my unknown......"
When Shester said so, he slowly dropped his shoulder and nodded.
Then I said as Azio, who was sitting next to Shester, was badly impressed.
"Hey - that's just Mr. Shester's boss, right? I can't believe I just listened to you talk and thought about it that far...... no, you're right indeed. I almost endangered them if I gave it back to them. I must be ashamed of my own uncertainty. [M] I didn't realize it at all until you actually told me... but you're a brilliant person nonetheless. That's Valentine's key position."
Then Lombardo said in a slight light.
"No, come on. It's not that praiseworthy. Hey, Chester, don't be so distracted. I'm going back to Odine after a little rest... I'm going to go to the bathroom for a bit..."
Lombardo said no. He immediately stood up and headed to the bathroom.
"... are you blindfolded? ……
Ask Chester if Azio dropped him off with his backed face.
"Oh, you're not very good at being complimented."
Shester smiled as he raised his mouth.
But it wasn't the usual cynical grin, it was full of respect and love for Lombardo.
