It wasn’t the plump-breasted beauty high elf who was there. It was a shorty elf baby.
“Eh? What’s going on? I’m sure it was Meltera’s voice……”
“Yes, I am Meltera, Great Sage-sama.”
“No, no, no. How can someone with such a small breasts be Meltera!?”
I involuntarily screamed at the baby.
“…… Can you please not judge people by the size of their breasts?”
Then the elf glared at me with eyes that didn’t look that of a baby’s.
“Eyes that look like they’re looking at a trash…… Uh-, i-it’s definitely Meltera….…”
When I looked closely, I can see that the face of the baby looks exactly like Meltera. She very much younger, but her voice is still the same.
“But, what’s going on!? Don’t tell me, you succeeded in rejuvenation magic!? Kuu, no, if that was the case, why did you choose to become a baby? You should have appeared more grown up, you know!? It’s ridiculous to throw away those breasts!”
“Sigh…… Even if you are reincarnated, it seems that you are still the same, Great Sage-sama….…”
As I raised my voice, Meltera (the baby) sighed deeply.
『I’m sorry, Meltera-sama. Apparently, death couldn’t cure Master’s perversion.』
“It’s been a long time since I’ve seen you, Lindwurm…… Sigh. Yeah, its seems that’s the case. I’m sorry for the inconvenience you’re having.”
『No. This is the path I chose after all. Even so, congratulations. I’m surprised that you’ve managed to complete the rejuvenation magic that even your former master gave up on.』
Old friends, Meltera and Lindwurm, proceed with a conversation on their own.
Hey, please don’t ignore me~.
“Thank you very much, but there are still many flaws in it. It is hard to say that it is completed. After all, in order to rejuvenate the body, it takes a long time equivalent to the period required for aging, and during that time, it becomes impossible to do anything.”
“Does that mean you’ve been asleep somewhere for a long time?”
“That’s right. I had been alive for a certain amount of time to begin with, so I was also in a dormant state for a long time. I woke up just six months ago.”
『Dormant huh. Just like me then.』
So that is why she was considered to be dead. High elves have a long lifespan, so she must have a long time to go back.
“But there is no need to go back that far you know!”
“It would have been best for me to have grown a little more, but I wasn’t able to make adjustments that precisely. As a result, I woke up about a month old.”
“Gnununu……”
However, even if it has its flaws, creating a spell like that is impressive. In other words, Meltera is like having eternal life.
“I’m impressed that you, Great Sage-sama, have been able to truly succeed with reincarnation magic.”
“Unlike rejuvenation, there were times when I was in trouble because I couldn’t control where I could be reincarnated. But to be honest, it was quite a gamble.”
“Leaving my body defenseless for hundreds of years was quite a gamble as well. Of course, I took appropriate precautions.”
I now understand why Meltera has become a baby and is living in this era. However, there are some things that just don’t make sense.
“About that. I thought you weren’t interested in eternal life……”
“Yes, that’s true. But circumstances have arisen that made me no longer say that.”
“What do you mean?”
“That was after Great Sage-sama passed away…… It is a story that stems from what happened to the Tower of the Great Sage.”
“……to the Tower of the Great Sage?”
Eudemos had recreated the scene of that time, but the organization was long gone. Meltera then told me the truth about how the Tower of the Great Sage came to a collapse.
