Chapter 396

They’re having a performance . When Kuro announced this, the first person to move was Magnawell-san .

Pulling back his neck that has been leaning over towards the plaza, he slowly turned it towards the sky .

“Uwooooohhhh!”

Magnawell-san let out a tremendous roar that seemed to split the air, but there was no shockwave reached our location . Kuro and the others must have put up a barrier .

Even with the barrier though, I could still a tingling sensation as Magnawell-san’s roar seemed to shake not only the air, but the earth as well .

Then, some distance away from the city where the venue is located…… The earth rose up, forming a huge mountain range that surrounded the city .

Looking at the mountain range of rocks as huge as Magnawell-san, reaching thousands of meters high, even when I look at them from a distance…… The people gathered here were astonished by the power of Magnawell-san, who created this with just one shout .

However, as if it was obvious, it didn’t end there . Next, jet-black magic power gathered around Kuro, and like a conductor of an orchestra, Kuro raised her hands…… and the donut-shaped mountain range that had surrounded the city immediately floated up into the sky .

[……A- Amazing…… Without any chants or magic circles, for her to lift up such a large mass……]

I heard Lilia-san’s voice as she dumbfoundedly muttered, but I didn’t have the time to look in her direction .

After confirming that the mountain range had risen quite high, Megiddo-san thrust out his right arm, which was clad in crimson flames, towards the sky .

Thereupon, a tornado of flames that seemed to burn the heavens was released from his fist, shattering the floating mountain range with a huge explosion .

Just as I was admiring the tremendous amount of firepower Magnawell-san had, before I knew it, in the center of the explosion…… Isis-san appeared, pushing away the smoke from the explosion .

Then, as Isis-san’s body spun around as if she was a fairy dancing in the air, not only the shattered pieces of the mountain range…… but she also “froze the flames” blazing brightly, and a huge number of ice lumps appeared in the sky .

Looking at the ice lumps slowly fall down to the ground, the thought of the ground turning into a hellscape because of this rain of huge ice lumps popped into my mind…… but that didn’t happen .

As if to enclose the city, “three trees” appeared, and their branches extended out at a startling speed, catching the falling ice lumps as if these trees had a will of their own .

I’m sure that the one who did was Lillywood-san…… Those three huge trees which didn’t look any inferior compared to the World Tree, seemed to show how powerful Lillywood-san was .

Then, as a finishing touch, Alice, clad in her black robe, leaped high into the air .

And then, Alice’s body blurred out as if it was going through static…… before a tremendous number of clones appeared, filling my field of vision .

If the main body controls them, I heard that she could create 100,000 clones but…… actually seeing them was quite an amazing sight to behold .

Alice’s clones ran like meteors through the branches of the trees in all directions before they returned back to Kuro and the others’ side as one .

……Just a few seconds had passed . That’s all it took…… for the entire scenery to suddenly change .

The three trees surrounding the city were gorgeously and beautifully decorated with “multicolored ice” and the three trees were connected by “flames trapped in ice”, forming like a ring around it .

And carved on these three trees were the words “Human”, “Demon”, and “God”, the name of the respective Realms .

I see, the three trees are the three realms…… I guess that means that the ice ring that encloses fire, giving off a shimmering light, is showing that the three realms are connected huh……

It may have been simpler if they just said it . However, these decorations that surrounded the city…… To be able to create such a thing so easily, the Six Kings really were amazing .

As admiration and astonishment could be heard from everywhere, Kuro spoke again .

[……This year marks exactly a thousand years since the Treaty of Friendship was signed between the three realms . The three realms have carved out their history by standing close together and helping each other . We are proud that this Treaty has stood for a millenium, and we are proud that we were able to hold the first Six Kings Festival on this day . And in the future, I hope that another millenium…… No . I hope that the days where we walk hand-in-hand with our dear neighbors will continue forever…… . Leaving you with these words, I hereby declare that the Six Kings Festival to have begun!]

At that moment, the plaza was engulfed in a round of applause .

[Amazing, amazing!]

[……They even changed the terrain itself in an instant…… As expected of the Six Kings!]

[Ahh, for such amazing Six Kings to call us dear neighbors . We should act in a manner in which we wouldn’t be ashamed to call ourselves as such . ]

[Yes! We may not be able to compete with them in terms of power, but the Humans have their own strong points, just like the Demons and Gods do . Let’s do our best to help each other!]

[Ohh, of course!]

Here and there, words of praise for Kuro and the others, and words of pride for the Treaty of Friendship rang out . And then, as if it were a matter of course, we heard voices telling us not only to help others, but also to help each other out .

Ahh, this world really is…… a good world . Everyone is trying to look forward to a better future, doing what they can do without feeling spite against others .

This should have been a really difficult thing to do but…… the beautiful scene of Humans, Demons, and Gods smiling and cheering together everywhere is a sight that will show the many races living in this world that even though we may look different…… we would always be close neighbors .

Dear Mom, Dad————— I thought to myself once again, that I was glad to have come to this world . I could feel the warmth of the atmosphere around us, uniting our hearts . I could also feel that little by little, I’m also becoming part of everyone…… Somehow, just like the others———— I’m also feeling really proud .
