Chapter 360: "Welcome Home"

Slowly, Kuro stepped towards Dr. Vier.Dr. Vier looked pale, and her shoulders jerked every time Kuro took a step closer.[……Ku….. romu-sama…… I- I’m……][……………….]Just as Kuro arrived in front of Dr. Vier, Kuro’s hand immediately swung out with a speed that made the air shake.……A slap? Did she just slap her? A slap holding Kuro’s power? Errr…… Dr. Vier, are you alive yet? Has your head blown off your body?Receiving a slap of unbelievable power…… A strike that would surely separate my head from my body if I were the one who received it, a red mark remained on Dr. Vier’s cheek. Or rather, that’s all the damage she received!?It sounded as if a missile had been shot, but the damage Dr. Vier received was just her cheek reddening…… Her body is too sturdy.While I was surprised because of a different reason, Kuro stared straight at the surprised Dr. Vier and spoke.[……Do you know why I’m mad?][……T- That is……. because I brought a great amount of trouble…… to Kuromu-sama……][You’re wrong!][……Eh?]Dr. Vier, frightened by Kuro who was clearly angry, replied with a pale expression on her face, but Kuro immediately refuted her.[…….The situation in the past was my fault because I didn’t explain my circumstances to Vier properly…… I end up regretting it. However, that’s not what I’m angry about!][Eh, u- ummm……] Follow current on novelenglish.net

[Why…… Why!? Why did you leave without discussing anything with me and didn’t come back for over a thousand years!!!?][ ! ? ][Just arbitrarily leaving…… Carrying all responsibility on your own…… Do you have any idea how worried I was about you? That kind of thing…… did you really think…… that it would be something that I would be happy about?][T- That is……]As tears dripped down from Kuro’s eyes, I could tell that she was really worried about Dr. Vier.That’s also why Dr. Vier was very shaken and couldn’t find any words to respond with.Wiping her tears away with her sleeves, Kuro then looked straight into Dr. Vier’s eyes, and told her slowly with a sad voice.[……I’ve sent you many, many letters, haven’t I? However, you never responded…… Hey, Vier? Did you hate me already? Did you hate me so much that you didn’t even want to talk to me anymore?][T- That’s not it! There’s no way that I would hate Kuromu-sama!!!]I see. Although Kuro didn’t see Dr. Vier in person, she did send her a number of letters and tried to repair their relationship……But Dr. Vier never responded to them. It’s just my guess but…… I think she was too scared to even read them, thinking that “What if they were letters where she was telling her that she’s breaking off connections with her”.[……Then, why wouldn’t you meet me before?][That’s…… because…… I didn’t think…… I was qualified to meet Kuromu-sama……][You don’t need any qualification to meet family!!!][……Kuromu…… -sama…… Eh?]When Dr. Vier spoke about not being qualified again, Kuro shouted at her.And then, Kuro pulled Dr. Vier’s hand and held her in front of her chest.

[……It’s really…… a relief…… to see you’re healthy.][A- Aahhh…… Kuromu-sama…… I- I- I’m……][Vier…… We finally met.][Aahhh…… Uwaahh…… Aaaahhhh!]Patting Dr. Vier’s head, Kuro softly spoke to her. Receiving her soothing, Dr. Vier trembled and large drops of tears began to flow from her eyes.With her trembling hands, she gripped onto Kuro’s clothes…… and as if she’s squeezing them out of her mouth, Dr. Vier spoke.[……Is it alright? I…… This foolish me…… Is it really…… alright for me…… to still be called Kuromu-sama’s family…….][Of course. Regardless of what Vier thinks, Vier will always be my “precious family”. That will never change, no matter what happens.][Uwaahhh…… Aaahhhh! Kuromu-sama! Kuromu-sama!!!][……Unnn. You’ve been suffering a lot, haven’t you? You’ve been persevering on your own, haven’t you?][Uwaaaahhhhh! I- I’m…… so…… sowwy! I was so scared…… that I was running away from meeting you…… I’m sorry……]I’m sure that Kuro’s gentle acceptance and welcome is what Dr. Vier has been wishing for within her mind.As if she was letting out all her pent up emotions, tears streamed down her face as Dr. Vier clung to Kuro, just like a spoiled child clinging to her mother.[I’m sorry, Vier…… If I’d had more courage, I could have gone to see you sooner…… I was also afraid that Vier might have hated me, so I wasn’t able to gather the courage to see you. I’m really sorry that we only met today.][That’z not it! It’z all…… Aaaahhh…… my fauld…… I was feeling too afraid…… Aaahhh…… to meet you! Even though I weally wanted to meet Kuromu-sama! I’m sorry, I’m sorry…… I should have just been honest with my feelings…… I’m sorry…… Kuromu-sama! Kuromu-sama!!!][Unnn, it’s alright…… “Welcome home”, Vier.][A- A- Aaaahhhh!] Follow current on storynovel.net

As if a dam had been broken…… Feelings that were pent up for over a thousand years began overflowing from Dr. Vier’s mouth, and Kuro continued to gently catch them.These two whose feelings for each other led them to drift apart…… At this moment, they were finally reunited.As I felt like tears were about to drip down my own eyes. As I was watching such a scene, I felt a light tap on my shoulder.[……Kaito-san.][……You’re right. Eden-san.][ ? ]When Neun-san called my name, I nodded, immediately realizing that she was hinting that we should leave them alone for now.After all, it’s been over a thousand years since they’ve met, and I’m sure they have lots of things they want to talk about.With that in mind, I called out to the other person here…… Eden-san.However, Eden-san just tilted her head in wonder, as if she didn’t understand the reason why I called out to her.It seems like all Gods who created worlds had turned off their ability to read the mood.Wryly smiling at her pure reaction, I managed to gesture that we were leaving the place. Eden-san seemed to have understood as she nodded her head, leaving together with Neun-san and I.[……Kuromu-sama, I…… I……][Unnn…… It’s alright, I’m here with you.]The words I heard just as we were leaving…… Even though Dr. Vier was trembling in tears as she said them…… They were certainly filled with joy. ~~ Extra: Today’s Mama Eden ~~(She’s not my child, so I’m not interested in her. I’m just here because of my child, and I’d like to end this already and bring my child home. With all the kerfuffle, I’m sure that my child would be hungry, and I’ll go prepare a special meal for him. Yes, that’s a good idea. For my child, let’s create the meal starting from the ingredients. Let’s prepare the best of the best, down to every cell. All the ingredients that my supreme child will eat must be the most ultimate ingredients there are. Mhmm, come to think of it, my child is lacking in vitamin A, isn’t he? Considering the proper amount my child should have in his body, he should take “25μg RAE” at this point…… This won’t do, I need to tweak the nutritional balance in my child’s body as soon as possible……)T/N: 71/240+26
