A Wish to Grab Happiness

- You're lying. Tell me you're lying!You want me to believe that!?

The Great Tent of the New Royal Army.Lyshaw and his colleagues, who were the main faces, including firing alarms and Eldis sitting in the tent, looked stunned when they saw a fierce moaning resemblance to Lugis's.

Normally, he was very calm in terms of appearance only a little.Whether he was mourning death in his chest or suffering, he knew his duty as a commander.

But today is different.

"... Grandpa Richard is dead.... sucks, today's the worst day ever.I will never celebrate this day again. "

Rugis says with the pain of being robbed of something comparable to a heart.It seemed to calm down slightly, but it was obvious that it was nothing but a deception.

With everyone feeling upset and hesitating to even say a word, only Caria jumped up her lips.The silver eyes are shining brightly.

"... Marshal. Fort Medraut fell.Then their next march target is King's Landing.We should return to King's Landing as soon as possible.I want to prepare for that. "

That was because Caria was less astonished than her surroundings.

Carlia saw Rugis still talking to Richard from the adventurers' days on several occasions.I understood that it was a matter for both the teacher and father, and I also knew that he was so obsessed with his family that he sighed.

That's why Caria had to say it.

If Fort Medraut is burned down and supplies are lost, as the Herald says, the legs of the old Royal Army will be slowed.Still, there is absolutely no respite for the time I am stepping on here.

We must hurry and prepare ourselves as soon as possible as the shield of the King's City.Even if the opponent were a superior army of more than 60,000.

"... my grandfather sent an advance party to King's Landing."

Heavy words pierce the message.The message stuttered unexpectedly for a moment and nodded after a few seconds.

"Okay. --Let's go back to King's Landing.Send word to Matthia and Phyllos first.Take the wounded to the wagon first. "

With more than 20,000 troops and commanders, including the wounded, Rugis starts moving in one word.He looked terribly sad, but it seemed to Caria that he had angry eyes.

Perhaps Lugis would not have returned to King's Landing in the past.Definitely led a small group of soldiers to Fort Medraut to kill Valerie.He will never forgive those who take away his family.

Richard made the decision to return to King's Landing first.Each of Richard's deeds and words stick to Lugis's brain, and the last word disciplines him.

As the whole tent moved toward returning to King's Landing, Lugis said without hiding his gloomy and gloomy expression.

"--Karia, hang out with me for a second.It's about Grandpa. "

It wasn't an order, it was close to a plea.The silver eyes blinked and nodded at it.There was air there that no one else could break into.

Remember - Lyshaw, the recorder who was here, wrote down this situation in his notebook, and some kind of theory remained.

He is the one who likes heroic colors without exception and has a lot of rumors and records about female relationships.

--The theory is that the person I loved most was Carrie Birdnick, who accompanied him for the longest time.

◇ ◆ ◇ ◆

The first thing I thought about it was that he almost looked like he was suffocating.

Lugis' personal tent wasn't rough, but it's probably because of his character, who doesn't want to put anything extra in it.All the luxurious decorations and emblems were removed, the simple bedding and alcohol were removed, and only the magic sword was placed in his hand.

It was strange that the treasure sword, which was considered a family treasure of the House of Birdnick, was now turned into a magic sword.

"You look like you're suffocating or dying."

"... I'm trying to keep this down."

I saw Rugis sitting on the bedding, groaning, tilting a glass of wine, and I thought this was no good.Hiding his expression in the social world is a natural technique, but he doesn't seem to have that kind of aptitude.

"Well, do you regret it?

He asked if he regretted having sent Richard to Fort Medraut.Rugis reacted quickly.

"No way!... no, I'm sorry. "

For a moment, Lugis handed the glass to Caria.Caria sat beside her in the wind that she had no choice.

"... my grandfather told me to protect the fort by his own will and in his own words.My regret would mean insulting my grandfather's will.I wish I'd done it sooner and better. "

But it didn't work.Rugis also knows that killing Zebrellis sooner or better is just a dream.

Still, the feeling that you killed Richard doesn't disappear from your hands.

"I don't suppose you have any choice but to say that it is the duty or the right of the commander."

Carlia swallows wine and tilts her silver hair with thin fingertips that don't seem to swing a giant sword.

Commanders are obliged to accept the consequences of their orders and therefore have the right to order their deaths.But Carlia knew that he was already disclosing something like that.I don't think there's any emotion in him anymore.

Instead, Caria held something ecstatic in her chest and made her exhale her emotions.

"I still know that the old general was special to you.But I don't know what you're asking me. How about that?Hmm? "

"Caria, you..."

For a moment, Rugis closed his lips after saying something.It seemed to have forcefully swallowed something that should not be said.

"... no, that's right.But Karia, for example, have you ever reached out to an orphan?Of course I have no money, no talent, a filthy orphan.Can you give your life for that orphan?

I can say with certainty.There are no two of them in this world.Only my grandfather did it.I wanted to give it back. "

Richard was a teacher and father to Lugis.And above all, the man who took the hand of Lugis, who had nothing.There are only three such rare people.The next two were Nines and Arieno.

If anyone out of the three was missing, I am certain that Rugis would have died somewhere.The fate of orphans can easily change.

"There's someone here who overestimates me.Some people call me a hero.But after all, it's not me, it's just what I did.But like my grandfathers, where is he who can reach out to me without holding anything?No, I won't. I killed a man like that!

It was a language where self-mockery and self-punishment were interwoven.

It wasn't looking for someone like that, it even included the idea of just chopping his neck and killing him.

Rugis had no such feelings when he met Richard at the Sanio Games.I thought it was a courtesy to Richard, and I knew it was the right thing to do in battle.

But once I was on my side, I thought of fighting with the same ambition.

--Now it's time to keep him alive.

This is the price of such mistakes.

Even though I killed Zebrelilith, this is only close to a defensive battle.Nothing was gained by the new Royal Army, which, on the other hand, destroyed Fort Medraut and held a spear to its throat.The sound of doom was approaching.

"--My ears hurt.I am a woman who once believed in power alone.The strong are righteous, and the weak do not strive.You don't have to listen to the weak.You're right, I can't be that brave. "

It must have been an idea that relied on Caria's swordsmanship until she acquired it.

Being abandoned by his father, he was given a contemptuous gaze from his surroundings, in which he gained swordsmanship and strength while biting blood.She was nothing but a weak person, and even lost her life and grabbed it.

That is why Caria could not accept a compromise that would remain weak.I couldn't bear to be cut off by a word of talent from the power I had acquired over so much humiliation and pain.

Even if it were close to arrogance.

Carlia said after pouring wine into the glass.

"I can't replace him.--But I won't abandon you anymore.That's all I can say. Then I can't. "

"... you're telling me that, Caria."

Carlia pointed her silver eye straight.Rugis takes it for mocking herself.I could see alcohol spinning more than ever.Constant frustration is holding him back.No, maybe it was angry.

"I'm doing this now, but I'm really a nasty adventurer and a pennant.The groove cleaning suits me.There have been times when I wanted to escape because I thought I had to be a hero.They want to give up. "

"Oh, so?

Carlia immediately returned the word and Rugis told him to chew with hesitation.

"... if I do, you will definitely abandon me.You don't like the weak, Carrie Birdnick.You're a much better hero than me. "

Spit it out, Rugis said.But the silver-haired swordsman had nothing to fear or grieve about.

No, I was rather delighted.

The requirement called here is probably to organize emotions.The opponent had been with Lugis for the oldest time, and had to be a person who knew the age of the Lugis Adventurer, to say the least.Those who believe him to be a hero cannot see the pitiful thing.

That's why Carlia melted her heart that this was his weakness that only she knew.I'm the only one who knows his depth.I can't bear to have a side of him I don't know.

"No, I won't abandon you."

"Ha, no matter what power I lose.When I met you - no, can I go back to being an orphan that I couldn't do anything about?

"Yes, it is."

Caria quickly approached her face.The breath of each other melted and the smell of wine was about to melt away.For a moment, Rugis opened his eyes, but he glanced back at the silver without fear.

Carlia realized that someone other than herself was in Lugis' eyes.I'm not another woman.But he sees someone who is not himself.

"--Did you see me before you met me?"

Carlia knew that her eyes were wide open.My teeth squeal.Oh, I see. Strange enough to fall into my heart.Not all questions were iced out, but there is still some sort of acceptance.

He had met me before I recognized him.I don't know how that works.

"I don't know what you saw.But I can imagine. Then yes. "

After putting a beat, Caria says.

"--Now you want to kill me?

Rugis' expression becomes stronger.I found that my blood was drawing down.The constant slumbering appearance disappeared now, and the spare space flew away.

Without giving her time, Caria took Lugis's finger.

"I love you.Definitely. Even if you lose your limbs, you can shatter your will.I will be with you.I don't know what to do.Humans are creatures that lie even to themselves. "

The faith of the girl, whose power was everything, crumbled brittly before love.Love that does not depend on righteousness, such as the reason for setting the right thing, does not have any meaning.

But if you can't believe it, you can't help it.Caria does not deny that she was such a human being, nor can she.

That's why I say it.

"Then try killing me.Whether you're a giant or not, can you kill him?If I do something and you will never forgive me, you can do everything you want.I don't mind. "

"... no, Karia.I'm sorry. That's what I mean-- "

"What's the difference?

Take Lugis's hands and put Caria on her neck.The thin neck was going to break even if I just put a little force in it.It's incredible that you're running around the battlefield.

"It's the same for me.How many people will take the little girl of the fallen aristocrats and take her out?How many people will go out with the little girl?You're the only one I know.I would have lost everything if I stayed that way.Will, dignity. "

So, Carlia and I go on.

"If it ends with your hands, it's not bad.This was my choice. "

Kalia spreads her silver hair over the sheets as she falls into bed and pulls Rugis in.It seemed like I no longer needed words.

◇ ◆ ◇ ◆

"Oh, yeah. Is that what this is about?"

Virgin Arieno - The Spirit Altia groaned at the tip of the cathedral.Seeing Zebrelilis decay in the temple ruled by silence and cleanliness.

As a result, the script that was supposed to kill Zebrelilis by the hands of the Catholic Church collapsed.

No, it's been the default since Vrigant died at his hands.That's why Altia pulled another line.In a sense, this is within known ranges.

However, even in Altia, only one strange question remained.

--How could Rugis have had enough of the original to kill the Great Devil?

Looking at all prejudices, Lugis is mediocre.There is no mastery of martial arts, only will and ego.Speaking of noteworthy things, there is only the possibility that its will will will blossom the evil talent.

But that's not enough to kill the Great Demon.It is impossible to say that it is inherently possible to kill the great demons and magicians who possess the original.

Even though Lugis is close to malignancy, he's not strong enough to bring us the original record of his murder.

--But... Zebrelilis the Spirit God looked at it at the end.Her eyes, looking at the panorama, looked forward to the reason.

Altia is convinced and blinks her lost golden eyes.

"I don't suppose you believed him so far.There's still something special about your love.I'm sure you're my family. "

It was easy.Destiny will call this thing.

- Altia. No, Arieno was responsible for his original.

Lugis could not bestow God's favor on him alone.For this he is deprived of everything and will not be rewarded for all his life.That's what Ultia wants from her family.

But then the world will think.

Why did he not receive the favor of God?

It is not included in the account because the family wanted it.It is the whole world that finds a stronger inevitability, and it is the habits of those who create this world that give what they need.

The world thought this way.

--He committed a sin without the favor of God.

God loves many sinners.Then what is the great sin that escapes the favor of God?

--That must be God killing.

Until then, there was no doubt that his nature and will were mixed up.The world's destiny is not so gentle as to be reached by just one reason.

But he was at the mercy of his fate.

Ultia is convinced.

There are many fates in this world, sometimes going through multiple branches.As a result, some fates are as thin as branches, while others are fated to become thick branches.

There is no doubt that fate has now arisen between Altia and Lugis.The root of history, the fate of mechanical schemes that can be described as giant trees themselves, lies here.

"Let's go. To crush fate.That's why I was born. "

I could hear the voice of destiny.

--- Whoever can kill God must be the only one who was not loved by God.

On this day, the Virgin and the Spirit began to face their destiny.
