What came before Alicia and the others were children who had not participated. On behalf of that, a child about the same age as Alicia, who seemed to be the oldest, advanced and looked up at Clovis.
"Mr. Crowe, I want to hear more about what you just said."
"Are you talking about me?
After nominating the children, Clovis opened the slit's eyes to his surprise. By the way, it was on the kids that Edmond called him "Cro” too.
Earlier, while Alicia and Edmond were running around the lawn, Clovis seemed to be doing it by telling them stories he knew and rare things he saw and heard in neighboring countries that he didn't take part in.
Nevertheless, I guess I didn't think the kids would connect to me. Alicia poked slightly at Clovis' back, bewildered.
"Come on in, brother. Look, we're all waiting."
"... right. Now, if you'll excuse me."
So rose Clovis, drawn by the children, was taken into a group sitting in a circle. If you look closely, it looks like some of the members who participated in the show have joined.
In the rare, pompous and warm sunshine of this country, the children surround Clovis with joy. In the middle of it, his side smiling at the children was so gentle that only a little bit of Alicia's chest hurt in loneliness.
Lonely?
Again, Alicia found herself confused by the emotions that floated. My own aides are breaking up with the kids in town. I know if you're happy, but what does it mean to be lonely?
"Alice. Alice."
Alicia, who had contemplated even her chest, returned to me the pseudonym which was called from next door. Apparently, Edmond had called on me several times.
"Sorry, Ed. What's the matter, man?
"Shit! You're gonna sound like Cro"
Alicia blinked her index finger at Edmond. But the look on Clovis's face is serious. After the nod, Alicia kept her ears close to Edmond so the aide wouldn't notice.
"Is this okay?
"Oh. From here on out, don't tell Crowe."
Pushing further precautions, Edmond dived his voice.
"You, you like Crowe?
"Ha ha!?!?!?"
"Oh man! Silly!!"
Edmond blocks Alicia's mouth in advance of the sudden bomb screaming.
Apparently, he also heard Alicia's oddity in Clovis' ear. That beautiful face turned toward the two of them, but the children surrounding him gave him a continuation of the story, and he never came back to the bench just looking at this one once.
Alicia and Edmond relieved themselves of their shoulders at the same time, then looked at each other and whispered.
"Silly, you! If I can't get my hands on it, I'll be fine."
"Because Ed suddenly says something weird!
"I don't know! So, what do you think of my brother?
(Asaki?
For the first time there, Alicia learned of her mistakes. What Edmond is asking is what he thinks of Clovis “as his brother”.
(Oh, I'm surprised...)
Edmond looks weird at Alicia, who sighs more tired. Nevertheless, even if the meaning of Edmond's words were the contents of Alicia's mistaken streets, there was no need for her to show that much agitation, but the young princess could not think there.
Well, how did you answer that? This is how we hang out together, so a fictional person named my sister Alice must be close to her brother. As she summed up her thoughts, Alicia stared at Clovis' back.
"I like it. It's settled."
Alicia laughed small as she found an aide surrounded by church children.
The other person connected by a strange fringe from a previous life, but so much so that he could not have predicted it at all on his own, that his presence is greater in Alicia.
Even today, I was so afraid of the people living under the castle that I could get to know so many wonderful people. It was all done because Clovis pulled Alicia's hand.
"Cro... Your brother says I saved my brother, but it's me who's being saved. So I want to tell him something to thank him for, but he says he doesn't need anything. Trouble."
Ask me if I have anything to wish for, and I can't believe I want to be on your side, and all I get is a deviant answer with the pin. He wants me to be there for him, even though it's the same as Alicia.
Relatively distressed Alicia, for some reason Edmond was the happiest looking face I've ever seen.
"Oh well. Right...... Good."
After many nods, Edmond stretched his body out and then threw his legs out to the far side of the bench. It was the old Clovis thing that Alicia didn't know that Edmond started talking about as he looked up at the sky so that it would take more than his arms.
