It was a dark space.
It was a place where there was nothing.
There is not even a sound.
Half a day alone will drive you into a state of mind.
……
Floating sensation.
There is no feeling of up, down, left and right.
Yui and Two move. It's like you're being sucked in, but you can see that you're moving on your own because you're looking ahead with a solid eye.
There was Zed a while ago.
She closed her eyes and seemed to be asleep.
Yui touches Zide's cheek.
"Wake up."
Zid shuddered.
That was unexpected from Zeid.
In a supposedly empty space, a warm hand touched and a gentle voice was heard.
"...... Yui? Why are you here?"
"I was looking for it. Why is Zed here?”
"To keep the other me down." I think I'll be able to get back out in a minute. Because it's automatic, I can't grasp the timing. "
I see. We're all waiting for you.
Zide frowns.
"I wonder if you've lost your mind." Yui, it's not a hallucination, is it? "
"It's not a hallucination."
"... isn't that too much to say?"
This is what Zeid felt uncomfortable about.
It's too different from the usual Yui. Whether in tone or character, I had a bold impression.
“Maybe it's because I feel safe in this space, just me and Zed.”
Oh, and then.
And Yui continues.
Sheila admitted to our relationship.
Relationship?
”Even if I go out with you... you can marry me”
"Eh!? Why are you so...?!"
Zeed gets upset by something unexpected.
Yui's cheeks are loose. Although it was close to expressionlessness, it was clearly moving compared to the usual Yui.
"But I'd like to hear from Zed." Does Zed hate me? "
"I don't hate it..."
You don't like it, do you?
"It's not like that..."
Yui is cute and attractive with her body.
But Zeid liked Queena and Sheila because we were together. Because it suits my personality and I want to stay with you.
"- Zed, let me stay with you."
Yui's arm tangled around her neck. They crossed their faces and hugged each other.
Zeed's impure feelings are driven by the fleshy breasts that pass over his uniform.
I wonder if you're so happy.
Zido reveals his anxiety.
"If everyone is happy, I think that's good."
Yui whispers gently.
That alone gave Zed no reason to deny it.
Zide's hand turns to Yui's back and hugs her.
It was very warm.
Yui's hand loosened and her face moved slightly away.
My gaze fits.
I'm sure he thought the same thing.
My lips are getting closer.
Gently touching each other...
(Ah)
Your vision becomes brighter.
There were four people around.
"N-No, no, what are you doing!"
Phil's rage resounded first.
In a hurry, Zide leaves Yui's face.
"Nh..."
Yui gets close to the desire, but Phil squeezes his feathers from behind.
You, too!
Hmmm...
Yui turns her hands under Zeed, just like a baby without a heart. The desire for asylum increases and Zeid's reasoning breaks down.
"Ah, ah, it's... good to do something like this majestically from daylight on...!"
Tholia covered her crimson face with her hands.
But next to that, Sheila called out.
"That's why Yui took the lead!" Look at my example! "
"Hey, stop it."
Quena also strangled Sheila with her wings.
Nostalgic and lively surroundings. Zide's cheeks are loose.
Haha
Zed laughs.
"It's been a while, guys. Did you come looking for me?"
“Of course. How long have you been missing?”
"A week or something?"
One month, one month!
"Seriously... it looks like you're hoarding a lot of requests."
"You're worried about me!?"
Quena said in a dumbfounded voice.
"Well, well, that's fine!" We've found Zido, let's go home! ”
Sheila says no one denies it.
But it wasn't just Zed.
I looked around and then cast a shadow over my face.
"I just want to be alone for a while. I can go home with the transfer. Will you go home first?"
"Oh, you don't have to be worried...!"
Phil called and Thoria stopped him.
Then the wind quena, who understood everything, nodded.
“Okay, I'll be waiting.”
Yeah.
Everyone leaves.
Then Zed looked around and muttered.
"Here... that big city... it was there, wasn't it?"
Zeid's memory was vivid.
With an unquestionable vivid reality.
◆
The world has changed a lot.
No one knows if it will produce good results.
But it doesn't change the fact that it's going to take a lot of victims.
(I knew it....)
Sufi fled Reuters with Tholia. But then they were separated.
Sufi was walking around.
To escape Reuters.
Or to escape from something else.
(I think my responsibilities are enormous......)
It is too heavy for a young child's shoulders.
Compared to Tholia, she was an idol, but since she was appointed a saint, her authority has been great.
That's the size of what that Reuters wants from Spi.
Spi knew.
The magnitude of the responsibility and how much people trusted me.
The Holy Republic has lost its capital and has temporarily lost its function.
The Weyra Empire and the surrounding nation had only a great deal of sacrifice and hatred.
In the city where Suffi streets were filled with tears and heavy air.
"Wayla, did the Empire win in the end?"
"If it's news, we're lifting the Waila Empire." I don't know. "
The men are laughing in the alley with the newspaper in one hand.
Sfi was resting in the corner with his robe deep in his eyes so that he didn't know who he was.
I don't like it, but I can still hear the men.
But, the brave Zeds and Soria-sama were on the side of the Weyra Empire, right?
"Didn't you turn around?" I don't know what you're thinking because Zed refuses to be a hero in the first place. "
The man has the momentum to spit in the newspaper.
But the other one is leaning over.
"I don't know if I can say that." I hear that you helped people. From the beginning, I thought Zed was a good guy. "
"Huh? You said before that Zed was a demon!"
It's a shameful conversation.
But this is the city of the Holy Republic.
Many believed in Astha, and many turned their backs on Zedek by turning down the mighty.
Still, I think it is because I am decorated as the hero of this war that I am talking about and praising Zeid in a dignified way throughout the city.
(I can't believe that Zido-san is a demonic race...... that person......)
Suffi smiled a little.
You feel tired and hungry.
But I was a little relieved to hear Zed's name.
"--Besides, you escaped from this war, didn't you, Saintess Spiffy?" I gave the orders and sent the soldiers. "
For the people, idols and wars were distant, and the closest.
It is mediocre, intermediate, ordinary, and majority, but it is therefore present.
And that's why I'm the biggest victim. Therefore, he has the right to criticize the entanglement.
Spi gets awkward, stands up and leaves quickly.
After walking for a while, Sufi headed to the place where the god capital was.
The footsteps are heavy.
I also feel nauseous because I smell the smell every time I get close to it.
Still, I can't stop walking.
(...... I'm ready to die)
As Spi walks, he feels sorry for himself.
Still, I didn't go to the Weira Empire or the guild because I felt remorse.
The desire to make amends drives my legs to various places.
Curiously, it is nothing more than proof that he is aware of sin at a young age.
It was Zed that Sufi met.
He was looking at the endless horizon in a triangle seat.
"Mr. Zide..."
Spi unexpectedly calls out his name.
It was a complicated feeling.
Like I didn't want to see you, or vice versa. Or will he punish me rightly?
Knowing or not knowing those thoughts, Zeid's face turned sad for a moment. However, it was also immediately a bright face when I saw Spi.
Ok, you're good to see me, aren't you?
"I'm sorry, I should have died sooner..."
Huh?
Huh?
Zeed spurts out as they look at each other.
"No, it's scary here. Come on, come on."
Zeed creates a space between his legs.
If it was true, I would have refused in advance because of my embarrassing feelings, but I didn't have that much energy in Sufi.
I believed that Zeid would not act maliciously. Or perhaps he gave up thinking that there was no reason to blame him if he acted maliciously.
Sfi sat down, sandwiched between Jeed's legs, as he was told.
”I-I-I haven't been in the bath much... so...”
"It smells good. And it's warm."
Haaa
Zid buries his face in Sufi's hair.
Spi suddenly noticed.
There is no nausea or feeling of heartburn.
Surrounded by Zido, it is protected from the unpleasant atmosphere that makes this place unpleasant.
That's why Zied has designated a location for Suffi.
"This is the remnant of my magic power." Maybe Queena and the riffs were aware of it. I destroyed the city I was here in. "
Well, that's to defeat Reuters, isn't it?
"I don't know..."
Sfi couldn't penetrate deeply into Zeed's unexplained answers.
I knew I had no right to hear it.
I knew I didn't have to ask.
"If Lord Zido could easily take a life in a city, he wouldn't make such a sad voice."
……
There was no reply.
However, I had strength in my hand holding Spi.
Silence flows between the two of them.
Even the wind doesn't come to this place.
The next person to open his mouth was Zed.
"I wonder what will happen next." I wonder if I'll be punished. "
“I don't think so. Zido is a war worker, so Rif and Thoria will protect him. Reuters is also responsible for the disappearance of this city. That's true."
I see.
Zid nodded lightly.
Spiffy noticed again.
That's not the answer Zeid was looking for.
Zide-sama wants to make amends, right? Do you want to be punished by someone? "
"Maybe so." Memories are so painful that I can't wipe them down. My chest hurts. "
"I'm the same. So I can't find a word to multiply with."
A shadow falls on Spi's face.
"Is this how Sufi feels too?"... even though you're so young. "
"Age doesn't matter..."
Spi shakes his head.
I know that.
I'm not in a position to make excuses.
It is the responsibility of those who have their lives in their hands.
But Zide denies it.
"No. When I was a little girl, I made a series of choices." If I had made a mistake, I would have been dead. But you're different, aren't you? It's not just my life. He even carries the lives of others. "
Zide was not very good at words.
But I understand how it works.
Why did you lift a young boy like Sphe to an idol?
That's because I want to be irresponsible around me.
Because I want to put the blame on you without thinking.
I know we should share more, and I refuse even the necessary labor.
However, Sufi admitted that way.
"Because I chose to."
I wish I hadn't chosen you.
Otherwise, I'm sure.
But the way I said it was desperate.
Or Sufi thought it was a hopeful observation.
Why did you choose that?
"That's..."
Suddenly, Spi was troubled.
Why is that?
The first motive is to avenge my parents.
So he tried to expose the evil of the Astheians.
While that was happening, the aristocrats were in a position to override the aristocrats. Has power. I made a name for myself.
"I just realized it." A society that holds one person accountable is wrong. "
"... but that makes it easier to turn around." If someone is not in a position of clarity, the responsibility is overwhelmed. ”
"I know, my words are beautiful." But everybody makes mistakes. So I'm sure... I'm scared too. My powers are too strong. If the people around me are the ones who affirm everything like Ruina...... if they don't want anyone other than me to affirm..... "
Spi was feeling it with his back.
Zide's sad gaze was directed toward the Divine City.
He remembers the fear of repeating this tragedy.
"I'll support you."
"Sfi...?"
“I'll compliment you if you're right. I get angry if I'm wrong. That's how I'll always be there for you."
Words had a strong core.
Zido feels relieved and laughs powerlessly.
"It's pathetic, I..."
"No, Zido-san is also supporting me. I must pay for my sins now. We must take responsibility for the irresponsible way in which we have moved our people. I'm leaning on Zid to face that fear.”
Spi said that with a clear voice.
When I remembered my beginnings, there was a separation between my feelings.
It is also important that a new goal is created to support the mind.
But what the word means is...
"... are you going to die?"
“I don't know. I've said so much about supporting Zid, but the death penalty may be inevitable.”
"I told the riffs..."
“Please, I didn't rely on you in that way.”
"...... You've just gotten angry."
The two of them laugh as shown.
But the wounds in Zido's and Sufi's hearts had healed somewhat.
Just a fraction of the day.
That was all I had, but it was too much time for both of us.
