"So, where the hell are we, and which way are we going to have one?

Setuna asked Azmaria aloud, who would be in the rear, after a frequent shout.

Tears should have run out. The reservoir of tears must have dried up. That's how much I cried and cried out. I screamed and called. By doing so, I intended to fulfill my distinction from the original world. He decided that he would no longer imitate crying thinking of his hometown. Not all the time, if you're drawing on the past.

In front of us, the reality of a different world is spreading. I just cried out and wasted time, and nothing makes a difference. If you can't go home, you have to move on. She's right.

Previous.

We just have to take a step forward.

Setuna was slowly breathing air as she waited for Azmaria to respond. Under a clear sky, the flowing air is light. There's so much openness I couldn't think of in the depressed woods. My heart also feels light, perhaps because I shed the burden of tears.

……

Setuna, uh, noticed a slow response from Azmaria and looked back behind what she was supposed to be. And stunned.

"What!?

In front of me, there was no appearance of a beautiful woman who was supposed to have been there until just now, only the claw marks of the destruction caused by the explosion were spread. Nowhere in the giant crater-shaped explosion trail can we find a crimson woman. She's a prominent woman. You should know that even if you're far away. But I couldn't find it.

Setsuna was distracted, but immediately recalled. Abandoned, that doesn't mean. She must have her own idea. That's not necessarily going to help Setuna, or maybe I really abandoned her.

"Really, you're a selfish woman."

It's not something I know what a summons is for, such as subpoenaing and leaving it alone.

I knew I had no choice but to blur, but I would have to be foolish about this trick. Along with his self-defense, he sighed.

Let's just say it's still good to be summoned into a woodland unknown anywhere in the other world. That's not good either, but it sucks, but I think it's okay. I also admit that, as Azmaria put it, it must be the will of Mizumi to respond to the summons. I opened the door with my hands. I just have to be convinced of that.

The problem is that Azmaria does not give as much information about this world as it does, and throws even the Imperial Devil into the woods. There won't be any of this, no matter how much. At least, it will be information about the area around this forest and you can accompany me through the forest.

No, if you're a summoner, isn't it normal to order a summons?

But she said Setuna was free. You have the right to choose your path, and Azmaria can't even stop it, he said.

(I mean, what does that mean?

Hold your head.

Anything but Setuna telling me to make up my mind. Where to go, what to do, how to live, how to die. I guess you're asking me to decide that. I just get a headache thinking about it. I never even thought about that in my life before. I've just lived hoping for my mother's happiness.

And yet, he tells me to figure out how to live my life.

Besides, this is a different world. If I don't know anyone, I don't even know what the situation is. I only know that monsters live there, but I can't help but know that.

Setuna sighed. I can't even think about it. As it is, it is only visible to repeat the grand tour.

Anyway, I decided to move out of the spot. Nothing is more foolish than to keep waiting for something that's gone without telling you anything. You wouldn't mind yelling around, but that just consumes time and strength again for nothing. Whatever the time, your health is limited.

Together with an overwhelming sense of defeat rather than giving up, Setsuna looked around. In the woods shattered by the battle against the Imperial Devil - among the giant craters, he is the only one. The appearance of the bird beast is foolish and I can't even feel the sign of the Imperial Devil.

Naturally. Even though the silence returned, there was enough explosion to change the terrain. Setuna knows that many animals have been involved. There is nothing like liking and approaching the heart of such destruction.

Setuna sighed once again, looking over the woods as they encircled the circumference of the crater.

"Where am I supposed to go?

Forests, forests, forests, forests - everywhere I looked, it was the same view. I don't know how big this forest is, and we all couldn't figure out where to go through it. It should be, too, in a strange forest in a strange world. Naturally I didn't know.

Still, he headed outside the crater. I don't know how far the forest extends outside the explosion, but if it doesn't fall out, it won't talk. It doesn't go to the back of the woods.

"Well, which is the right answer"

Setsuna moved forward without a scratch.

Leaving the heartland and stepping into the woods in the true sense.

The darkness of the forest was dominated by gloomy silence. Animals and insects who have escaped the difficulties have the oddity that is forcing them to remain silent. The heavy silence is viscous as it sticks all over Setuna's body. I don't know what in this forest will make me do that, though I couldn't tell Setuna if some kind of force is working or if this is what the forest is originally about.

An area covered in depressed trees. There is no road-like path. It was hard enough to see what looked like a beast trail, but I guess I was lucky enough to do just that. The beast path may lead to the outside world. There was no certainty, but there was nothing else to rely on.

There is no sign of the Imperial Demon that attacked us earlier. Maybe it's the effect of the battle ahead. Has the storm of destruction created by the black spear kept the monsters away? It would be appreciated if you recognized that even if you attacked me, it would only be payback. I don't want to drain my strength in vain until I get through the woods.

It was unclear how far out of the woods it was, or what would happen. Keep your health warm only.

The spear had disappeared at some point. Azmaria never took it somewhere. I was squeezing all the time while Setuna was screaming. But after he stopped crying, he disappeared when he realized.

The shadows and shapes were gone.

Maybe he went back to his original world.

Azmaria said the black spear was a weapon she had summoned from another world. A weapon just for Setuna. Summon armed.

After what I summoned from different worlds served, it seemed natural to return to the world where it should be. It could be game thinking. A painting floated behind my brain as the summons attacked the enemy and left. The black spear appeared in response to Setuna's summons and returned in service.

"Hmm...?

Setsuna stopped. In the woods. Countless branches and leaves are intricately folded to build a green roof. The slightest leaking day was pouring rain of light into the darkness of the forest.

(I...?

If the spear returns to the original world with the will of Mizuna, how about Setsuna?

Azmaria said her "Gate" was a one-way street and it was difficult to identify the world where Setuna was from a number of different worlds, making it nearly impossible to return.

But the spear Summoned by Setuna returned without difficulty. They returned to their original world with no obstacles, no restrictions whatsoever.

So, what about Setuna?

(Can you go home...?

Is it possible that there is nothing at all?

The spear probably went back to the world it was supposed to be. Somehow we got to the world from scratch. Setsuna, too, may be able to return to the original world somehow.

(How...?

How did the spear identify the original world location and even accomplish world-to-world travel? In the first place, I don't know whether or not I returned at the will of the spear itself.

Maybe...

(The world called you back?

It is also inconceivable that the world to which the spear belongs recalled the spear which served as a summons. If there is a will in the world and the power to undo what belongs to one's world is working, it is a conjecture that is built on the process of

In that way of thinking, unlike the black spear, it was also natural that Setsuna could not return. If you haven't served as a summoner, you can't possibly return. There's no reason for the world to call back.

"What's my role... what is it?"

Setsuna snapped.
