The Weakness of Beatrice the Level Cap Holy Swordswoman

Volume 7, Epilogue: Welcome to the Open World

There was a small hill partway up the mountain.

That was Boo Boo’s favorite spot and it gave him a view of the inn town the humans used as a base. But he was not there at the moment.

Holy Swordswoman Beatrice stood silently on the hill in her red armor and white miniskirt.

Next to her, bespectacled White Witch Philinnion asked a question with a smile in her voice.

“Hee hee. Are you feeling lonely, Beatrice?”

“…”

“Philinnion, you dumbass! Have you forgotten Beatrice is the obsessive stalker type who can’t take a joke about these things!?”

Fighter Priest Hermelina frantically spoke up, but the utter moron probably had no idea she had detonated several nuclear landmines in her attempt to avoid a single anti-personnel mine.

Boo Boo was currently walking to the inn town visible below. He said he was going to bow down along with Sky to get everyone to accept her.

Had he thought about the fact that it was not that long ago that he had been curled up all alone on this hill to watch the festivals from afar?

Everyone grew with time.

As long as they wanted to grow, they would not stay in one place for long.

“Yes.” And Beatrice took a step forward with her tattered gray cloak swaying behind her. “I am lonely. But I’m even more pissed. What, am I so strong he doesn’t feel the need to protect me? I went to all that trouble to get this strong and now it’s working against me?”

He had admitted to his weakness.

And he had wanted to move past it.

“But why is it I can’t even imagine Boo Boo smiling happily with everyone if we had given up on Sky?”

It all came down to this: The guy she loved was not that cheap a person.

The island was small enough to walk the perimeter in three days.

This was an alternate world with a variety of lifeforms, ranging from the palm-sized Fairies to a Dragon that seemed to reach the sky.

A lot had happened on that island.

So very, very much had happened.

But in the very end, everyone had smiled and forgiven each other. And they had continued forward, even if only a step at a time. Ground’s Nir had seemed so attractive to the humans from Earth, but that may not have been limited to the Labyrinth sprawling out below the island. They may have been drawn to the land and the air and they may have dreamed of great possibilities there.

Of course, those possibilities would never come true if they simply sat around dreaming. A great many people had clashed and worn down their own bodies to protect this easy-going world. Profit, biases, status, and justice. They had weighed many things on the scales while protecting this place.

So this would turn out just fine.

Ground’s Nir would not be broken by something as simple as inviting in a new friend.

“My name is Sky.”

The human inn town had accepted Boo Boo, but they would not stop there. After he gave a supportive push on the back of a lonely girl who reminded him of his old self, a miracle was completed.

An ordinary girl spoke in front of so many people.

“I caused a lot of trouble for so many people. I will not argue if you call me the root cause of it all. But if you can find it within you to accept me, I will ask for nothing else. So please!!!!!!”
