Flea Market Day Six, evening to night.
Just a short distance away from the troupe people who drank so well, Marielle was now caught in something resembling her homecoming.
At the launch, Jacopo said, "You troupers! Thanks to all of you for the success of our opera gig! Yes! We want to celebrate your efforts whispering here!... and even more! This time we are going to invite in a new trouper! Together with her welcome, cheer up! Now, ladies and gentlemen, let me borrow your glass! Cheers!" he said at length.
A banquet noise that starts there.
However, sometimes I was afraid of Marielle with a scratch on my face, and the banquet progressed with an exchange with the trouper that I was terrified of, not leaving.
(But it wasn't a bad idea because it conveyed the desire to get along... I'm sure you can crack it down over time)
I want to bite the emotion that I've been subjected to the troupe for a while now, that my dreams for years are going to come true.
So Marielle spent a little free time at the end of the banquet to immerse herself in sentiment in this way.
I wish I could pack like everyone else around me, but unfortunately Marielle had already done that. Unlike other troupers who had opera performances just before and hadn't been able to organize their costumes and such, Marielle had extra time for that because she hadn't appeared in the opera performances themselves yet.
I want to see the stars.
I want to see the desert at night.
In that way, there was a sentimental sentiment somewhere about wanting to burn the view of the new gatekeeper into your eyes in honor.
"Hey, are you alone?
"... Cayenne?
Marielle notices a voice hung from her back. A voice I've heard recently, I've heard a while back.
I was hit, Marielle thought.
It was Toshiki's suggestion in the first place to burn the scenery of the last commemoration to the eye, and even the place was designated "The group of light bugs visible from here at night is fantastic".
I thought something was coming, but I didn't expect this.
The other side blurted out, "No, I'm being set up too, because we're all going to celebrate the eviction," he said.
"Toshiki's husband said he was a little late. I can make it to the Lizard flight, but I'm busy cleaning up the store right now, so he said something like that.... eighty-nine lies."
"... you're a troubled man"
"Oh, he's going to be distracting me with that. No, it's crazy to be distracted..."
"Hehe."
Marielle, who suddenly laughed, had a frown with no cayenne.
"No, it's nothing. You look like that, too."
"Sort of."
Lizardman in front of me must be thinking maybe in his mind, how funny he thought he was, he was standing up all the time.
Marielle didn't want to say that. Um, Cayenne, who was roaring furiously, reaffirmed her expressive, that's all.
"Speaking of which,... the famous troupe, you took it."
"Oh, you knew."
"Fair enough. Congratulations."
"hehe, thanks"
"It's a dream, isn't it?"
Pompous and grunting, he felt somewhat proud.
"Yeah, but it hasn't come true yet."
"Hmm. Right."
"The dream is to be a singing princess and repaint the world with emotion."
Until that day when inspiration heals me. That dialogue is behind my chest.
"... you did, do you still have to work on it"
"Yeah, so"
So.
"Cayenne, I'll dance. Until you repaint the world with emotion, I'm sure you will."
"Wow, that's good."
"... goodbye to Cayenne"
"Sort of."
Cayenne also answers by raising her mouth angle.
"Me, too, became an exclusive guild adventurer. You'll be sent to various branches."
"Really, I'm not an elite"
"Come on, one way or the other, you're like the other.... well, I wouldn't settle that way for a while, I'd rather be a flunky adventurer"
"Oh, yeah."
"A lot of adventurers hate being sent to various branches after all. People like me are going to fly a lot of things. I don't have a family. I'm single, I'm reasonably young, I'm a rough breed, like."
"Hehe, we have to work hard."
"Oh."
To say with a distant eye.
"Old times. He said," Let's go on a journey. "
……
"He's an idiot. Next time I see you, you're gonna be absolutely pissed off if I don't bring you all the souvenir stories."
"... yes"
"I still think. Being an adventurer, looking around in all sorts of places, leaving my name behind,... that kind of makes me a little proud and excited. I knew I had to take an adventure."
Cayenne's eyes turned this way, calm.
"So, Marielle, I'm going on a journey. Two fang names and clad names. Just make them a little famous. Um. At least my condolences to Akane's partner."
"Heh."
"Because Lizardman has a long life expectancy, and I'm sure I'll be able to be an adventurer there."
Cayenne shrugging her shoulders.
I'm sure his partner is still clad. I'm sure he folds somewhere, but on top of that, his inseparable part keeps him alive.
I thought he was a fool.
"Hey."
That's when Cayenne pointed in front of me.
Light worm.
There was a small bush around the fountain of the oasis, from which numerous light worms were dancing beautifully.
"Beautiful"
"Oh."
With the fantastic view in front of her, Marielle fell in love for a while. There was such a spectacular view that the swinging light strips made by the light worms disappeared when they were born untouched and I wondered if there was such a beautiful sight.
- You're beautiful, too, save me one day.
I thought I heard those words from next door.
Go back to your true face and look next door.
Cayenne didn't say anything. I thought it was my fault.
"I see, this is a good view"
"... well, I know how you feel about designating a place like this on purpose. Something very beautiful."
And I saw the light bug again.
Mystical sight.
When I thought that each and every one of these was the life of life, I felt I was seeing something great, and I thought of the words in nature and Marielle's heart.
Inspiration is great.
Yes, I'm sure the emotion is great. Now Marielle insists that emotion is wonderful.
* * *
In the end, Toshiki and the others came late. Marielle accidentally laughed bitterly when she came in a hurry that the Lizard flight was really about to leave.
Anything because it took longer than I thought if I was looking at a different gift.
The gift I was given was an expensive accessory or a bit of a stylish scarf, as if it were just something the singing princess usually wore.
Suffice it to think that the total cost was maybe about one gold coin. It is suspicious that Toshiki said, "I made an eye-catching (appraisal) and set up a good deal, so it's not that far."
With the impending departure of the Lizard flight, Marielle finally said goodbye.
Those three little princesses were relieved by the familiar sight of a child named Nell crying and the two who could mock it.
The orc kid named Lutz, keep his head down, good luck. When I offered my hand to shake it, I was an oak. I was confused. But he shook my hand firmly.
Toshiki is a master, please come back again, for God's sake. Even though I was fifteen, I didn't feel like I was younger until the end. Though he thought it was strange, Marielle once again expressed her deep appreciation.
Cayenne and I exchanged hands, one word or two.
I'm sure this will keep us apart from each other. This man has nothing but gratitude.
It felt like a very long time. But time soon came.
When Lizard flights run in the desert.
Cayenne waved. Marielle waved back, imitating it.
"... what is it?"
After a while, Jacopo apparently noticed Marielle's anomaly in front of him, taking into account her complexion.
Marielle was surprised by her own voice, which was wetter than she thought, saying no, with the intention of making amends.
Apparently, he couldn't stand it.
"... the stars are beautiful. I'll see the sky for a while, yeah."
"... Yes"
Jacopo was pretending not to notice me.
Marielle decided to be sweet about it.
And for a while, I shook my shoulder.
Recall the last conversation you had with Cayenne.
- Thank you for living, Marielle. Bye.
- Yeah. You, too, stay alive. Cayenne.
That was a short conversation.
But there was a sense of purpose in it.
Thank God you're alive, I can't believe you seem so sweet.
- If you're touched even when you're dying, I'm going to live.
Second, those words crossed the back of my brain.
And Marielle thought that even if there must be something about to die ahead, she would surely be able to live.
- Thank you for living, Marielle. Bye.
"Thank you too, Cayenne. Bye."
In retrospect, Marielle wiped her tears quietly and swung to the sand by a Lizard flight.
