A Wish to Grab Happiness

Lesson 524: Let's Call It Love

"Agatos... what,?

The voice of Reu, who has lost his emotions. Turning her back on the spot where the light shines, she was looking at the jewels. She has never been seen while she was with me before.

Eyes that don't hide their height in their shiny, crimson hair. To the fingertips of her limbs, she is perfect. There's not a single thing missing. The incarnation of beauty is where it is.

But Agathos said, in the dark. Even though I'm right beside you, somehow I can feel her presence thin. It's like, from now on, you really think you can disappear.

"What a face, you. Look, go quickly. In a tiny, too short human life, there's enough room to look back? You guys should have to move on at any time. It is the privilege of our long time to immerse ourselves in the past. That's fantastic."

It was obvious that Agatos was trying to get out of the way. So much so that even Reu feels unfamiliar with the conversation.

Maybe she's the only one who can get out of here. You know what, she's trying to stay here.

A chill strikes me like I can rot Reu's spine. Impossible. What is it? That can't be possible.

"Agatos...... eh. No, it's not. If you're here. I have one too. I'm not going!

I no longer know if that's a scream or a plea. No matter what I knew it wouldn't solve, I couldn't help squeezing it out.

'Cause isn't it? There must be no such thing as a perfect girlfriend taking my place. Agatos lowered his eyes for a moment to the emotions that leaked out of the verses of Reu's words.

In contrast to Reu's acute expression, Agatos is as calm as a quiet snow.

Fix your voices one by one, Agatos said, as I say.

"No, you can't. You live. This is my fault, I will not tolerate disobedience. Besides, Leu, this was supposed to come any minute. Two souls in one body is such a delusion, it doesn't last forever. Sooner or later, you or I, we had to finish. Instead, it's been stretching all the way out here."

"Then I disappear. I did it for someone else.

Reu, and Agatos chewed up the word. I felt like I dared to say it strongly so I wouldn't let you say anything further.

Keep your mouth shut and each other's gaze intertwines. Reu pulls if this happens all the time, but it doesn't feel like that all day. No matter how many things I say, I just say I can't leave.

I knew I was a strongman, but so much so. Agatos said with a sigh. But somehow, there is a thin grin on my cheek.

"When we first met, you wished, didn't you? At least at the end of the day, I wanted to die to sleep."

But that's not true, Agatos said. Continue the words as you stroke Reu's cheek, which makes him feel as if he were stuck.

"You're mistaken - you want to die, you want to be happy. Always wanted to be happy."

"Aga, tos...... eh"

Reu couldn't stop tears from coming out of his own eyes. The reason is unclear. Did you feel that the supreme gem was about to be lost from itself, or was it distracted by her words?

But there's only one thing I think. Agatos and I don't want to leave.

"Yes, maybe. I wanted to be happy… The day I was with you has always been, always been fun. Agatos, please..."

Reu, listen to me.

To Agatos' words, Reu accidentally closed his lips. If I hadn't listened here, I would have had an instinct that I would never have heard that voice again.

Hearing the sound of his heart and blood about to burst, Reu waits for Agatos' lips to move. That's all, but I was going to be able to handle my head too much nervousness.

"I should have said this - let us promise you supreme self more than this Ba-Agatos receives body. Your body belongs to me. I'll give it back to you, or I'll give it back. Live, Reu. This is what I want."

Agatos grinned to show off to Reu. The eyes are glorious, the cheeks are distinguished by white and, above all, a beautiful pleasant grin.

Reu found out something was poured into him. Something hot, very hot. But I understand what it is in a flash. My eyes opened.

"Good things, from now on -"

This is the original of Agatos. The existential significance of the demon man, Agatos itself, is pouring into himself.

And the existence of the loss of the original can no longer be but extinguished.

There were a number of things I wanted to say and scream at, but Reu didn't say anything. I stare desperately in the face with a large tear to try not to miss hearing Agatos' voice.

Agatos says with his mouth wide open.

"- Live, live, live! Give him back this world that kept you unhappy! I'm absolutely happy for you!

That's what I said, Agatos thrust Reu away. I heard Reu scream, but I decided not to listen.

That's what I thought if I asked, I would always leave a hesitation. At the time when the last thing I saw was that kid's crying face, I feel pointless.

In the tranquil darkness, Agatos mocks himself.

I did something that didn't seem at all. The supreme jewel that lives just for himself not only gives his body away to someone, but also gives away the original.

If you once saw yourself, you'd be scolding him with a grudge. Tell me that's not possible for a supreme jewel.

But I can't help it, otherwise I won't have that body anymore. The body, in which the two souls continued to enter, is so worn that it can only live as a demon. That was the only way to keep Leu alive. Besides, this way some of myself will continue to live in her. Maybe we can keep an eye on him for a little while.

Agatos sighed loudly in his disappearing soul and self.

Lie if you say you have no regrets. If you ask me once now if I wanted to descend into the earth with my own legs, I will undoubtedly take the lead. The supreme jewel, that's all you should have wanted.

But Agatos thinks.

I've come to know other beauty than me. Just their short-lived beauty, her beauty that keeps coming.

Then there's no way you don't recognize and respect that beauty. This is my fault.

- I guess this is what you call love.

I love them, I respect them, I only want them to live more than me at times. I entrusted everything to her, saying it was crap to live for someone.

The jewel that found out about love wanted to be lost for it. This was her supreme self.

How weak is it to know that you love someone? Agatos unwittingly loosened his cheeks.

Will Reu hate me, or curse me?

This is the worst way to break up. I also forced myself into a demon. I'm sure it doesn't seem good.

But that's good. It's not good for a gem to do something for someone. I only moved for my love. After all, that's all.

"-But. I don't think it's much better than at death like you, Vrilligant. You will be robbed and die, and I will die for my love."

Shards, giggling like a girl, Agatos said. My own lost body is visible in its sight.

I am no longer lost from the world. She laughed at the fact that the feeling was coming up.

"Come on, let's travel with regret, Vrilligant. The age of mythology is over. Our turn is over. That's what their time and the world are saying next. Don't you think it's too ugly to keep staying in that place?

The world is arrogant at all times and keeps things moving as they please. As a result, I don't even care if there is anything to be lost.

But for now, I could just thank you a little. Zeroing the final microscopy, Agatos rippled his lips.

"- Goodbye, Reu. You are more beautiful than me, more beautiful than the world. It's a wonderful day to find out."

The demon who found out about love says so to mouth, and he doesn't talk about anything anymore. The supreme gem kept its brilliance until the end.
