"If the Three Pillars become four, have you picked the new member? Will we call them the Four Pillars from now on?"
Although Lilith had a general idea of Sephiroth's plans, she wasn't too clear on the details, since he had moved things forward by two years.
"The representative for the Blue Sea People is tentatively Kuma. He can keep things under control. As for the name... we'll figure that out later."
-What should I call them now? The Four Court Pillars... sounds a little unlucky. The Four Heavenly Kings would be too cliché. (Any suggestions?)
"This is definitely going to cause some serious problems, isn't it?"
Aisa was already beginning to foresee the trouble that would follow.
Although, with a mighty figure like Sephiroth around, the vast majority would only grumble among themselves in private.
"Looks like it'll be time for our Peace of Mind Committee to shine again."
Leaning against Sephiroth, Lilith swallowed the apple pie in her mouth and struck a "Let's do this!" pose.
-Damn it, an older girl three years my senior is acting cute.
That said, Sephiroth still really liked those little gestures of hers.
"Speaking of which, I've been wondering for a while. Why is our department called the 'Happiness and Peace of Mind Committee'?"
Hearing Aisa ask that, Sephiroth could only offer a lofty-sounding explanation.
It was the same explanation he gave everyone else. After all, the name came from his own twisted sense of humor in his previous life...
At first, he had even entertained the idea of giving the department a theme song, but later abandoned it because it was far too absurd.
Something like-
Happiness is your obligation.
Are you happy? It's your obligation, you know?
Gross national happiness-99.9% "very happy"
We are the Happiness and Peace of Mind
