Chapter 47 \n47th story   Let’s Wake up from the Dream\n
[Oi, that guy got done in at last.]
[I heard the moving dungeon [[The Huge Rockman of Kulikala] that was said to be nigh impregnable was captured.]
In every place one goes, this is the center of gossip in the town.
Ultra A-rank dungeon, [[The Huge Rockman of Kulikala]]. S ranked adventurershad  gathered together for the challenge, and they had all failed. And the enormous dungeon was naturally captured by just Kazane and me.
[Everyone, it looks like you are talking about us~] (Tiara)
[Fuun~, we don’t exactly do it for the fame, though, right?] (Kazane)
So proclaimed Kazane, but I was filled with a prideful feeling — the reason being that this wasnt some small fame. I, Tiara Tsurugu Tsuwara, am now being talked about as Kazane’s partner by everyone.] (Tiara)
[Zinray-san had some back pain, and Yumika is tending to him. I wonder if it was bad to not wait for them and accidentally capture this dungeon.] (Kazane)
[Both of them will surely be amazed and surprised.] (Tiara)
Such a situation comes to my mind. It’s unfortunate for the two of them, but only this time, let’s be a little boastful.
[Hmmm, I guess it alright.] (Kazane)
[Eeh~, Kazane. Right now, let’s rejoice at the complete capture of this Ultra A-rank dungeon~] (Tiara)
[You are right. It’s been 3 years together with Tiara by now. Compared to those early days, you really have become strong, having travelled to various places, ne.] (Kazane)
Thinking back on the several places on the continent and their continuous travelling, today is the day I return home to my own country, Tsuwara Kingdom.
It’s been 3 years since the kidnapping incident, and I had splendidly defeated Blair and embarked on a trip with Kazane.
So time went on. Surpassing all other adventurers, I finally obtained that feeling of being at Kazane’s side. And I have decided to inform my father of this feeling.
[Ne, Kazane….] (Tiara)
[What is?] (Kazane)
[I’m really glad to have met you!] (Tiara)
[Me as well.] Such replied Kazane, smiling brightly.
****
(IcedTea: mllhild has informed me that there is not line break here since it’s a series of different dream sequences flowing into one another. I will mark if off anyway.)
Father gave me such praise when I returned to the royal castle.
[You have done great, Tiara. I’m proud that my own daughter has become such an adult] (Alduin)\n
Mother also smiled. It seem that she reconciliated with Father. This is really wonderful. (IcedTea: Summarizing mllhild’s comment: where was the mom before………..)
[Um, Mother, Father. I’m truly–] (Tiara)
Just then, Grandfather came calling out to me.
[Happy, is it, dear Tiara?] (King Mefirs)
[Um, grandfather…] (Tiara)
I told grandfather my honest feelings (about Kazane).
[Is that so….] But grandfather made a sorrowful face as he looked at me.
I wonder what is wrong?
[Grandfather, did something sad happen?] (Tiara)
The me right here right now is different from me in the past. I can put an end to Grandfather’s sorrows. Right! Together with Kazane, anything certainly is possible.
[Ah, there is. My beloved granddaughter is always crying. She is always crying, always crying alone.] (King Mefirs)
That is such a sad thing. Maybe it is about prince Shelkin’s daugther Yui? I wonder if she is likely worrying about Grandfather?
[No, it’s not that. Having to part from something she cherished is sad. Therefore, she continues to cry.] (King Mefirs)
This is a awfully sad story, ne. Right, Kazane?
[It is, ne. If Tiara wasn’t here anymore, I would also be sad.] (Kazane)
Yeah, me too, Kazane.
[Kazane, Kazane it is. Then what is this thing outside the window, Tiara?] (King Mefirs)
Grandfather pointed outside the window.[Ara?]
There, covered in wounds, was the frenetically shouting figure of Kazane.
[Isn’t that your Kazane over there?] (King Mefirs)
No, Grandfather. My Kazane is smiling right besides me.
[Un, that is right, ne.] (Kazane)
To Kazane’s reply, Grandfather made an even more sorrowful face. I wonder what is wrong?\n[……The fact is that the demon killed me.]
Ara ara, what a odd thing to say. Grandfather is right there.
[And he had an eye on you. The fact that you were alone, crying, was probably convenient.] (King Mefirs)
Please cease, Grandfather. Everything that happened before then isn’t a happy story.
[You became half-crazed upon seeing my corpse. There is no easier place than a crack in the heart for a demon to settle. You were easily entranced.] (King Mefirs)
No, no, this is wrong.
[Can’t you hear her voice? I can hear it.] (King Mefirs)
Voice? No. From nowhere is there a voice calling me.
[This girl keeps on calling you. If you stay like this, you will end up dying, and she will weep.] (King Mefirs)
Kazane is not crying. She is at my side.
[This girl drove the demon away. It is thanks to her that my soul came here.] (King Mefirs)
Grandfather is right here. Father and Mother are also right here.
[It is fact is that you cried alone. My granddaughter, all alone, is stuck in a happy dream, all the while knowing that it is a lie. Only able to cling onto the dream, she failed to stop the deception of the demon.] (King Mefirs)
No, No.
[But is this alright? You are — This girl is struggling to rescue you. She is probably truly trying to save you from yourself.] (King Mefirs)
Yeah, after all, Kazane always comes to save me.
[However, is this all right with you? Is only being rescued enough for you?] (King Mefirs)
Kazane is my prince. Absolutely, she comes to save me. This is a exceedingly lovely thing.
 
[………And yet, why does this feel so unpleasant…..] (Tiara)
I became aware of this feeling while running together through the plains, after enjoying th warrmth of snuggling close at that inn.  
[….And because I wanted to be besides Kazane…….to be next to this girl became my only desire…..]  (Tiara)
 
{{I also want to be together! Traveling together with Tiara!!}} (Kazane)
I feel like the voice has reached me.\n\n 
(IcedTea: SO………mllhild asked me to remove his TLer comments, but I’ll sum it up…….he really hates most of this chapter, cause of how it portrays Tiara…sure it’s a dream sequence, but yeah……. There were ALOT of comments….here is just a taste: “mllhild: Oh, I hated this chapter the first time I read it. Was in part the reason why I almost dropped this some months ago”………I myself…….will withhold judgement….)

Post Chapter Chat:
Kazane: [This time, it was within Tiara’s inner world, so we had little presence.]
Yumika: [Well, this is alright, but hey, the indestructible futon is too mighty. Like defending against the flames of the Blaze…]
Kazane: [Yumika is an idiot. It is indestructible, so of course it can’t burn.]
Yumika: [Please have some doubts about this supposed indestructiveness…..]
