A few days had passed since the political sect decided to leave.
But there was still a statue in the Demon King's Castle in Wolzwola, the demon kingdom.
"If you're going on another adventure, where are you going next?
"Uh-huh... right, like a country of play?
Toa was picking flowers in the garden.
The political sect stays with her here and accompanies her to talk to Toa.
"Playing country?
"Yeah. I already said I'd walk the continent in order, but this place is basically under Yaki's control everywhere, depressing, and I'm a nitwit where I've been"
"You don't like being called a hero anymore?
"I don't care about heroes from the start. But Razhausen is cozy, not like before anymore.... I want to go somewhere no one knows anything about me. If you're a playcountry, you're leaving the continent, and Hachi has nothing to do with it, right?
"... right. Sure, I might."
"You can go back through the dungeon if you want to go back to the Devil Nation otherwise. It's just that I can only go where I've been once."
"So what do you mean, you're just going to see Masamune play country first?
"We all want to see the New World. Even Toa hasn't been there yet, has he?
"I don't. Or is there really such a country? I hear there is, but I've never met anyone I've actually seen."
"You're not even in the Demon Clan?
"I don't think so. If you were there, you'd know, because that's the only thing that's going to make you famous."
Once an adventure into a playland was the first dragon's heart dream.
But now it is the goal of the political sect.
"How are you going to do that?
"You got a boat or something, we're gonna cross the ocean"
"A ship?... a ship is a small ship across that river? Are you gonna cross in the ocean with that stuff?
"No, it's a bigger one. Look, here's the thing..."
The political sect used the shadow of existence to manifest the image of a ship in the universe.
"And you make it out of iron, not wood. It's gonna be a light, sturdy ore in this world or whatever, right?
"No, I don't."
"Huh?"
"How do you make such a big thing?
"You have craftsmen, I don't know, but Dwarves and all... no way, you're not there?
"I've never heard of it. Besides, I've never seen anything like it. Was there such a big thing in the world where Masamune was?
"Oh. Only once, but I've seen it straight."
"Heh... Sounds like a fun world."
……
As I admired it, the political sect felt complicated wondering if Toa would have an admiration for a world she didn't even know about.
Because the world used to be a dark place for a political sect.
"This world is so much more fun, there's magic."
"Really?
"Yeah. The world I was in isn't fun. I'm not going to that world anymore, I don't know how to get there."
Return, return - the fact that the word does not appear unconsciously represents the heart of the political sect.
"Hey Toa, is Sufilia caged in the library again?
"I don't know... maybe"
"Have you talked to him lately?
"Sometimes it's normal to make a difference in the house when you eat, so I'll tell you when that happens..."
"... something's been bothering me. You're not gonna tell me, so if you notice, you can talk to me or anything, just listen to me, okay?
"Nothing, but you're always looking good, aren't you?
"How are you?
"Yeah. It didn't look particularly like that, you know, sometimes you laugh, sometimes you joke."
"Sufilia joking? Is that some kind of dark joke?"
"Feeling dark? … No, it feels normal."
"It feels normal..."
But Sufilia is few, and I guess it's normal in front of Toa.
Then the political ministry wondered why she looked dark against herself.
But I can't find the answer.
"I can't help thinking..."
"Masamune?......"
"... nothing. Toa, you're bored to be here forever, why don't you go out?
"Fine, but where to?
The conversation between the political sects is outrageous to Suphilia.
Sufilia also felt that the distance between the two was shrinking and that they were becoming more intimate.
But the closer the two hearts get, the more unexpected her gaze becomes.
He has a lonely look at the political sect and a cold look at Toa.
"Is that how you always stare at him"
Sufilia's heartbeat goes off.
Turning around, Lucius appeared at one point in the library.
……
Sufilia silently returned her gaze from Lucius to the other side of the window, disguised as calm.
"For you who are keen to study, this is a treasure trove, isn't it?
Lucius followed the table on the ground floor.
……
"But that knowledge should be used for your own good"
……
"Even by his side, you have no future"
"Please don't"
Sufilia told me not to peek into her heart.
"... you are a clever woman. You'll have as much control as you have over your own emotions. Stop fantasizing about him now. He won't respond to your heart, you know that?
"... it was Masamune who destroyed my father."
"... I wouldn't even intend to avenge it"
"Of course it is. I thank you for freeing me from that prison... for keeping me alive. I guess Toa feels the same way, I know how she feels"
……
"Emotional perception is a universal ability, isn't it? If you know my heart, you know. Master Masamune can't be happy to fantasize about her."
……
"Of course she will respond. But she can't lead Master Masamune to a better path. Even if it's a base. Even if I don't have the ability, I can see the future ahead."
"I can imagine the same thing as you. But that's up to you, isn't it?
……
"There's only ruin ahead of that cloudy emotion of yours."
"What do you say of me that is cloudy!
"Stop pointing the kill at me. It will destroy you."
"... are you going to kill me?
"I'm persuading you not to. He chose Toa, Toa chose him too. I don't see Masamune-kun's emotions anymore, but you haven't seen more than me since the beginning. There will be something you can see even if you don't have the ability to. But people try to make up for the unclear in their imagination, adding convenient ideals. That distorted affection is incomprehensible to anyone but you, which is why he does not accept you. You should get away from him. He shouldn't be the only one in your life."
"... I believe in Master Masamune"
"Blind faith is not the will. But you can notice, there's still all that time. He can't afford it right now."
"... are you saying you can choose?
"That's the best part"
But Lucius doesn't see it until the purpose of Suphilia.
Because emotional perception is not omnipresent.
What Lucius sees is only emotion, not the words or video she brings to mind.
What looked like Lucius was also unclear.
"- Why shouldn't I be the only one happy!
A voice sounded in the library, arguably the cry of Sufilia's heart.
But Lucius wasn't there anymore.
Sufilia was shaking her expression and shoulders with anger and sadness.
Gradually she shows calm, but she still turns her gaze to the garden.
I want to escape that grief, but too, she tries to stare at Masamune.
But the statue of the political sect was no longer in the garden.
Because he and Toa have gone out to the city.
The emotions left over overshadowed Sufilia's mind and horizons.
Her vision narrowed and she can't get rid of that distorted affection.
"I..."
Lucius' words produced a boost.
Her heart, which was denied, reinforced her feelings for the political sect more.
"I'm the only one who understands that..."
Sufilia trembled in anger.
Toa removes the grief of losing Mr. Rosalia by letting Pixie through his mind.
They say they have the power to heal and shine.
I stare at the moonlight lit hand Toa and regain my heartless.
It's a calm time to never look back on the past.
Only Toa heals me.
I advise Ver is co-dependent, but I only have Toa.
"Toa, it's time to go back inside"
It's getting a little cold.
Night in the Devil's Country is a little cold.
"Masamune"
"... hmm?
Toa accidentally called his name and turned around.
"It's me, to Masamune... if I don't apologize, I have something to do"
Hard to say, Toa said with a broken tooth.
"Apologize?... What are you talking about?
"The..."
- Toa, Lisa was looking for you.
It was Nem's voice.
Nem's voice showing up in the garden, Toa's previous expression is discontinuous.
"... yeah, I'm coming"
"Toa, what are you talking about?"
"Maybe another time. Let's go inside."
Nem is having trouble with the shimmy atmosphere.
He gave me a look that I couldn't even look at.
"Next time..."
"Nem, let's go."
That's what Toa said, and he went back inside like he was halfway out.
"What are you talking about..."
When it leaked, I noticed Sufilia staring at me in low salt.
"Oh, don't freak out, Sufilia."
"What were you talking about?"
"... nothing, nothing"
"Really..."
Sufilia turned away and looked down.
"Are you going to be headed to the Underworld?
"Huh..."
"We're talking about war."
"War?... Why suddenly?
"Nothing..."
Something's wrong with Sufilia.
I knew you wouldn't like something about me.
Did Mr. Lucius say anything?
No, that guy doesn't do that in vain.
It just rubs pointlessly.
"Let's go back inside too."
"... right"
But Sufilia didn't try to keep her eyes peeled like she was hiding something.
Lucius, who was staring at the political sect and Suphilia as they hit the night breeze on his own balcony, leaks a sigh and returns to the room.
I sat down on the couch by the fireplace and "I see," he muttered.
"What's going on?
Likewise, there was an appearance of Electra in the room.
"I knew he wasn't clever. But I didn't think I should intervene, so I trusted him."
"But?"
But he doesn't seem to understand Suphilia's emotions.
"... even though you have emotional sensation?
"It's not working, for some reason."
"Why, why?
"I don't know. I can feel it, so I can't possibly use it on him... maybe."
Electra tilted her neck.
"What's going on?
"Have you ever been talking to him and felt any discomfort?
"With Masamune? Nothing in particular...... what do you mean?
"No, I thought so. I wonder if he has proper control of the Ruling."
"... doesn't look particularly rampant though"
"It looks that way to me, too. But he could have noticed Sufilia's heart."
"That's true. But isn't that love?
"... is that what it is"
"There's something you still don't understand."
Lucius was a serious face.
But to Elektra's gentle grin, she said she thought too much.
"... it seems so"
I smiled calmly.
Lucius reconsidered his idea that, after all, it should be left to the political clerics.
The next day...
At the quiet morning doorstep, Lucius stopped with a cup of tea in one hand.
It's Suphilia and the ministry.
The political sect has something like a cold sweat on his forehead.
"Where are you going?
"It's a city, I'm gonna go shopping"
"... your complexion is bright blue. Aren't you feeling better?
"No, nothing..."
"Masamune-kun, what's wrong?
Toa also showed up late.
Then the expression of the political sect becomes unnecessarily bad, with a bitter laugh.
Lucius raised a question.
Because it seemed like the political sect was about to sue me for something with his eyes.
"Hmm?"
So I frankly returned my doubts.
Wonderful faceted Sufilia.
A toa that raises questions about something.
Nem shows his face from the second floor columns.
And the political ministry told Lucius.
"Mr. Lucius."
"... hmm?
"Best regards to everyone until we get back"
The political sect disappeared into ashes.
