Chapter 3: The VIPs

It didn’t take long before Adel’s group learned to coordinate with Chloe. Additionally, Claire and the Saints stationed at Wendill Palace were also dispatched to further bolster security. There was no way of telling if that had been the cause, but no further incidents occurred, and the G4 Summit was now just around the corner. The VIPs from other countries were arriving.

The Torastan delegation arrived first. Upon laying eyes on the welcoming party at the city gate, the man on the horse in the lead burst into a smile.

“Saint Adel! It has been too long!” cried Tristan, the crown prince of Torust, as he leaped out of his saddle and rushed over. “Oh, seeing you brings back memories! I trust you have been well?”

Adel felt like they hadn’t been apart long enough for it to have been “too long.” In fact, the incident at Sidel had been merely two months ago.

“Prince Tristan. I have been well. Thank you for asking.”

“I-I am glad. You are as b-beautiful as ever.”

It looked like Tristan was having trouble speaking clearly, but there was something else far more important that Adel wanted to ask.

“Your Highness, may I inquire why you are accompanying your delegation? We have not been informed.”

There was no doubt that Tristan was a good fighter, but Wendill couldn’t very well assign him to security duty. Instead, he was going to be a drain on resources, being an extra person that had to be protected at all costs. Security was already stretched thin, and Wendill most certainly did not want to deal with any unforeseen complications.

“That’s because...well...I-I wanted to see you again.”

“Huh? That’s the only reason?”

“I-It’s an important reason!” Tristan protested, looking both in a fluster and a little sad. “I’m quite sure I informed you in my letter. Have you perhaps not read it yet?”

“What? Ah, now that you mention it, I might have received something. I think.”

After finding Seiryuu, Adel had become even busier. She’d had no time at all for reading letters.

“I am deeply sorry, Your Highness. In any case, please remain wary. We’re keeping this under wraps, but there is a possibility that Elciel is lurking around.”

“Whaaaaat?! Saint Elciel is?! Didn’t she pass away?!”

“That’s what we thought, but apparently she survived somehow. We found Seiryuu, one of her Four Guardians, hiding in Erule River the other day. She might be planning an assault on the G4 Summit.”

In the previous timeline, Tristan had been Mad Emperor Tristan, the culprit responsible for starting the Great War. However, Adel now knew that he was originally a righteous and good-natured person. His transformation should have been circumvented, as the expedition to profane land with Elciel—where it presumably would have happened—had been called off. That said, there was no guarantee that he wouldn’t still end up the same if he came into contact with Elciel at the G4 Summit.

The Watcher had told Adel that a certain force worked upon the fate of humans, making it hard to change their futures in any significant way.
