Takumi, the mastermind behind it all, was thoroughly satisfied. Otto's frustration only brought him more peace of mind. Seeing things progressing smoothly, Takumi decided not to disturb the reunion any further. He called a few people over and quietly left. His part was nearly done. Next up was handling Mei's mother's situation. Oh—and also Cecilia. Thinking of that, Takumi turned to look at Tesla. He hadn't noticed when she'd arrived. But she had witnessed him revive Kallen with her own eyes. She was still visibly shaken. This kind of thing was totally unscientific!! "Tesla, you can contact Siegfried, right?" "Tell him—his two daughters are with me." "Ask him to bring the Judgment of Shamash." If he wanted that Divine Key, he had to find Siegfried. Durandal and Kiana exchanged glances but said nothing. Tesla slowly came back to her senses. "Alright. But... could you tell me how you brought someone back to life?!" "None of this makes sense!" "What even is magic?!" Tesla was at her wit's end. She felt like tearing out her twin tails and stomping on them. Absolutely unscientific! Could someone please explain how this even worked? "While it may defy science, it's definitely magic." "In other worlds, magic can often be explained with science." "Some spells are even activated through scientific principles." Takumi smiled as he spoke, remembering things like particle annihilation and such. That was basically science. Wasn't quantum physics her forte? When in doubt, use quantum mechanics. If logic fails—blame time travel. Tesla twitched. She gave up trying to understand. If she went too deep, she might lose her mind. She pulled out her phone and sent a message. Moments later, she blinked in surprise. "Siegfried and Raiden Ryoma are already on their way." "They should arrive soon." "No need to look for them." Apparently, when Mei contacted Ryoma, Siegfried had been with him. They were now heading over together. After hearing that Mei's group could revive the dead— Raiden Ryoma had immediately packed up his wife's relics and set out. Siegfried, upon learning his real daughter was present— He couldn't stay still either. And so, the two old men traveled together. Takumi nodded as Tesla updated him. Both old men, huh? Then he'd just wait patiently. Meanwhile, he turned his gaze toward Otto and Kallen's little drama. Otto and Yae Sakura were arguing. Neither was willing to back down over Kallen, and tensions ran high. Kallen watched them both, helpless. These two were acting like children. But then memories began resurfacing. Her face darkened again. "Otto, we need to talk about everything you've done all these years." Her gaze was conflicted as she looked at him. Yae Sakura stopped talking too. She didn't know what Otto had done. But based on Kallen's tone—she was angry. Otto fell silent. They locked eyes. "I don't regret anything I did." "Welcome back, Kallen." He made no excuses. He didn't deny the sins he committed. But he didn't regret them either. As long as Kallen was alive again—it was all worth it. His original plan was to create a world with Kallen in it. Even if it meant his own death. That plan had failed. But this result was better. Even if Kallen never forgave him—so be it. He had already prepared for that. Kallen sighed deeply. "Then atone for everything you've done." "And I'll stay by your side." No matter how unforgivable Otto's actions were— She'd be there for him. Otto smiled. "Alright." To atone for his sins together with Kallen? That wasn't so bad. If only that damned fox wasn't around. Otto's face darkened again. Why did Takumi have to go that far? Just thinking about it made his chest ache. He started arguing with Yae Sakura all over again. Damn fox, you never should've been brought back! Everyone else watched, thoroughly entertained. Soon after, Raiden Ryoma and Siegfried arrived. "Mei!" "Kiana!" The moment they stepped in, both men called out for their daughters. Mei and Kiana immediately turned to them. Durandal also glanced over. When she saw Siegfried, her eyes filled with complicated emotions. The next moment, Kiana pulled Durandal along and ran forward. "Stupid old man—take this!" Kiana delivered a flying kick straight to Siegfried. She was fed up with this useless father. Durandal watched awkwardly, unsure what to do. After that glorious kick, Kiana grabbed Siegfried by the collar and started questioning him. To his surprise, the questions were all about Durandal. And about herself. Durandal... was Kiana? The revelation stunned Siegfried. So the real Kiana had been here all along? He looked at Durandal, overwhelmed. "Dad!" That one word jolted Siegfried to his core. He stood up with excitement and rushed forward. Takumi watched the reunion, then turned to Bronya. "Should I summon the homeland drama queen—Cocolia?" Bronya's face immediately darkened. "No!" "I don't even know this world's Cocolia." "And the other Bronya probably doesn't want to see her either." "If you're going to summon someone, bring Seele instead." Bronya couldn't help but complain. Did Takumi have some weird hobby? He was always pulling stunts like this. Totally exasperating! "Seele, huh... Maybe later." "If you stay, you'll definitely meet her." "If not, then you'll have to wait till next time." Bronya was leaving soon. So she wouldn't have much time to see Seele. Next time, then.
