Dakara, Anata o Koko de Koroshimasu

A small inn built on the corner of 'Saul'.

So I woke up.

Right next to me is warm body temperature and a pleasant touch, along with a slightly scented sweet smell and exhalation that tickles my neck muscles...... Rico slept easily.

Wake up your body and gently stroke Rico's hair.

The beautiful blue hair was completely discolored black. - No, it actually stays blue hair. That's just what I look like.

That's the same in this room itself. White, black and gray wherever you look. Every color had vanished from my world.

- And I don't have the emotions to mourn it now either.

Sadness, grief, pessimism...... I cannot recall those 'grief' emotions.

Of course, I know you have such feelings. Instead, until recently I was saddened that Hazel had become immortal, and I should have been greatly saddened at the time even when my parents died.

... but I can't remember 'it' right now. I don't know. I can't even imagine how I was in the mood, even though I can't remember the way I was in my memory.

As such, will I lose all my emotions if I continue to fight?

".................. mmm"

Moves his head just a little as Rico groans.

The neck muscles become prominent.

Neck.

…………

Slipping his hands from the hair he was stroking to the noodle.

Comfortable body temperature and the girl's characteristic smooth touch.

- Now, if I strangle this, will I die?

…………

Second, an idea that came to mind.

Think of it, I've only killed with stabbing and shooting with a knife. This is my favorite weapon because it gives me the feeling that the knife took my life the most.

But directly. Yes, a means of strangulation that would take life directly with this hand. Blasphemous acts that pollute lives with their own hands. The forbidden thought of trying that with a loving lover.

I hold Rico's neck with all my strength...

"- Serra?"

"Huh!?

Keep your hands off me.

- What was I thinking now?

More sweat erupts. But it draws blood from my face in inverse proportion. Almost every part of my body cools down, as if I had been sprayed with cold water.

Rico opened his eyes and stared at this one.

"Oh, I'm sorry! I didn't mean to..."

"... what's wrong?

"Huh?"

Even trying desperately to fix it and apologize makes a dumb voice out of Rico's words.

When I saw it, Rico was rubbing his sleeping eyes. Speaking of which, she was weak in the morning.

If you hadn't noticed the earlier act, you'd be lucky.

But I tried to get out of bed driven by anxiety and fear that if I stayed with her, I would kill her.

"Wait."

Rico's still voice hangs from behind, and my left arm is grabbed.

Looking back, Rico was grabbing my hand with both arms. Although my left hand was wrapped in a bandage and I could only accompany it.

"... Selah. I don't ask what happened. So stay with me."

"But..."

"I'm scared."

Gyu.

Grab my sleeve and Rico nods his face.

"Wow, I was scared. I really thought you were dead."

…………

"Please, Serra. Just ask me one thing about my selfishness. I want you to stay with me."

"Rico......"

Rico's body temperature felt from his back.

The hand holding my sleeve was slightly trembling.

... What the hell is bothering you?

My lover is in danger of life and I am afraid of that memory. What a real fool we are to run away from her until we ignore that.

Look back and hug Rico from the front. I gently reach for my hair and gently stroke it to appease you.

"Sorry......"

"Yeah, sorry about this one"

Rico said before, no matter what happens, he's on my side. Follow me everywhere.

Then if you want to walk along a dangerous path with me. Whatever happens to me, I must keep Rico safe.

Yes, once again, with strong determination.

In my chest, Rico groaned pompously.

"... you boobies"

I slapped Rico on the head.

And I came to downtown Saul.

"No, why did you say that?"

One hour after I woke up.

Jillian said, "Let's go outside for a minute, seniors!" He pulled his arm hard, and then Rico and Mr. Olivia both came this far in a way that somehow followed him.

"What about Mr. Karen and Mr. Iris?

"Looks like you two have something to do. In the meantime, we can stretch our wings."

"It's very relaxing to say that the country could be blinded to the undead on top of a great deal of it."

Olivia's opinion is the best.

As far as the city is still thriving, there doesn't seem to be any confusion spread outside of 'Warden' yet, but it's all just a matter of time. Besides, I can't figure out when I'm going to be raided by Sakura and the others.

Honestly, I don't think it's a long time.

"Well, don't say that. Even Senior Sella hasn't been on a date with Rico lately, has she? This is not a good opportunity!

"Ha!? What do you suddenly say!?

"What!? That's the relationship between you two......!?

Me and Mr. Olivia are surprised at Jillian for dropping the bomb abruptly.

... I mean, I'm watching so much. I'm looking at you so much, Mr. Olivia!

Rico grabbed my arm as I blushed at that gaze.

"Thank you, Jillian. That's why, Serra, you have a date."

"Ha, eh, eh, eh!?

To Rico's bold actions I raise my body temperature even more.

Olivia's face was blushing looking at us like that...... that, Olivia is actually quite pure!?

"Become, yeah...............?

The open mouth is stunningly blocked.

Jillian pulls on Mr. Olivia's arm, which has completely solidified, and disappears into the crowd, "Well, with this, the disturber -" he says. I feel like you've thrown a meaningful wink at me at the end of the day, but yeah, it's literally my fault.

"Hey, Serra. Let's go, too."

"Oh, yeah......"

I'm not going to say anything, but I'm going all over the city alongside Rico.

"... n," Rico has extended his right hand toward me.

Understanding its intentions, I shake Rico's hand, though I am ashamed.

Walking in public with a dignified hand is something to be ashamed of inside. But I feel poisoned to such an extent that I feel safe and think it's not bad.

... I don't think it's been a long time since I've walked like this with Rico holding hands.

"Ah, Selah. I finally laughed."

"Huh?"

I look back unexpectedly to Rico's words.

She turned her dazzling smile to me.

"After all, Serra looks best with a smile."

Say so.

On Rico's black eyes that make him shimmer.

Indeed, there was a reflection of me with a faint expression.

Army garrison opposite the Selah's.

Before that, Karen and Iris stood.

"Karen, how did you get so far"

"Well, that's the procurement of weapons. Mine's about to run out of ammo, and you don't even have a protective gun leading up to Serra and Rico."

"... right. The immortals, they're strong as monsters, and they don't know when they'll be attacked."

"Exactly."

The two of them go in quickly.

As Karen's outlook suggests, it still seems that the information on the assassination of the commander-in-chief is not so widespread in the country yet. Maybe Sakura and the others are killing them and going around before the information gets through.

Whatever it is, at least in this city, Karen's authority, which is Major General, still passes. I'll get a light guide to the arsenal and decide to look for a gun that Serra and Rico could handle as well.

Unexpectedly, Karen holds her temples as if she suffered from a headache.

"... ugh!?

"Karen?"

"... no, it's nothing. Iris, will you leave it to me in a moment? Reminded me of an emergency."

"What? Hey."

"Sorry, I'm out first."

"Oh, wait!

Without waiting for Iris' still voice, Karen leaves.

Suddenly, she receives the gun as she tells her, even as she distrusts Karen, who has gone crazy.

Iris noticed that he had forgotten something important and looked back and asked when he was about to leave.

"Excuse me, don't you have a medical kid?

... Must be sex as a health guard.

Walk around the monochrome-dyed city holding hands with Rico and having conversations without any other love.

I'm not particularly shopping, but that was getting too much happiness for me.

Foreword withdrawn. Thank you Karen for giving me this opportunity.

But walking to the boulder for half an hour seems to be getting tired and now Rico and the coffee shop are drinking coffee.

"With that said, what time should I be home?

"Hmm, Jillian did say he was fine until about 2: 00 p.m. So a little over an hour or so?

The bickering settles, sip on the bitter coffee.

I magically cut out to Rico.

"You know what? If I cannot contain my impulse, and the... What if I almost killed Rico..."

"... What does Selah want to do?

"Huh?"

The question returns me with a question, and I look up Rico's face unexpectedly.

The look on his face was not angry, nor sad.

He was just staring back at me seriously.

"Does Selah want to kill me?

"No way! Rico is an important lover... You can't kill him."

"Well, that's fine, then"

Rico smiles, breaking the serious look until then.

"Serra is not going to kill me. That's fine. That's enough. I can trust Serra and I won't hate her if I know that."

"Rico......"

"Besides, if Serra's about to go the wrong way, I'll make it right for you"

Rico said so with a confident smile.

I understand Rico's words after I am a little stunned, and I almost cry too much of joy.

At least Rico saw me and I bowed down.

"... taught much tinier than me..."

"Shit......!? Shut up, boobies!

"That doesn't matter!

Coming to Rico's words, he accidentally raises his face and argues.

"... Phew"

"... haha"

Then we stare at each other for a while, and at the same time we zero our grin.

After a smile, Rico stood up.

"Sorry, Serra. Can't you wait here for a while? I need to buy something."

…… Shall I take a look at it with you?

"Yeah, I'm fine. This is all a secret."

Then is it a gift for me?

Then let's just say this place is sweet for words and wait in anticipation of a little bit.

Drop off Rico as he shits off and drinks the coffee he was about to cool off.

That's the signal.

Unexpectedly happy times collapsed away.

"Hey."

Sakura was sitting in front of me.
