- Even now, the eagle can vividly remember that time.

"Hey, how did Sakura make the eagle?

In his memory, the young eagle asks Sakara that with a smile.

Innocent. Pure. Without knowing the fate to wait after this.

"... because that's what Sakura wants."

She returns it out of sight from the eagle so that it can illuminate.

Always do the trick of twin-tailing your hair around when lighting it up.

The trick was so cute, I loved the eagle.

"Wish?"

"Yeah. Maybe it's scientist sex. After all, I hope that the results of this study of Sakura will be disseminated around the world. Here, Do-doo!

"Doh?

Spread your hands wide open and Sakura laughs furiously.

"Sort of. Do-doo. I want to be appreciated for what this Sakura made. I want the world to know the name of this Sakura. I want to make a huge impact on the world with this study of Sakura. Such a universal desire."

Sakura, who answers with that said and illuminated, smiled uncontrollably as if she were a dream-talking child.

I remember the eagle well being attracted to her such a grin.

"I can't believe it's universal. If the eagle can be the one to fulfill Sakura's wishes, I'd be happy to help. Sakura is best for eagles!

"I'm glad, but that's an extra word for me"

Sakura blushes and scratches her cheeks at the words of the eagle.

And he nodded and hugged me on the back of the eagle silently.

Sakura has a habit of hugging eagles back that way when she has something embarrassing or delightful to do.

And the eagle also shares her temperature by draining her body's strength so that she leaves herself to her.

- This is the routine of eagles and blossoms.

Read a lot of books and research records in Sakura's room to learn knowledge, talk about no other love, eat and sleep together, and sometimes just pretend to be a girl and go shopping, overlapping her body at night.

A life full of happiness.

One day Sakura will make her wish come true, until such a day comes.

Spring passes, summer passes, autumn passes, winter passes.

Sakura is.

Sakura is.

Dead.

…………

It was an instant event.

Did they see the eagle use 'power'? Or did someone steal Sakura's research data?

As usual, Sakura asked me to grab you, and it was when I came back to my room with a paper bag.

A group of strange men were pushing him into the room.

To see him in military uniform. Probably from the El Melado National Army.

Ahead of their gaze.

Foot.

There was a look of Sakara falling down with blood from her head.

"He made two contraindications."

One of the men who noticed the eagle looks back and points the muzzle at the eagle.

"One is the manufacture of homunculus for personal use. And the other is the study of 'magic'. You are too dangerous to rock this country. Therefore, I quickly solemnly sanctified Sakura on this occasion"

――――

"And so are you. He is not the earliest human being, such as Homunculus, who freely manipulates' magic '. You're just a monster."

Kacha, and I can put a bullet in it.

Oh, well.

Weasels should not have existed?

Has Sakura been killed because of the birth of the eagle, and because of the thought of making the eagle?

Can't eagles and blossoms live together in this world?

"I'm kidding!!!!!!!!!!"

Moments later, the eagle raged.

The eagle exercises' power 'while still burning emotions.

And it was at the same time that a man fired.

The human body bursts from the inside of the first man to fire. Head, torso, limbs, and all without excess exploded from the inside at the same time, literally making the man's body a piece of wood dust. And the explosion is triggered in a chain, where all the soldiers who were indoors turn into meat chunks.

But the man's arm was certainly not excellent either.

"Sakura - -!"

The eagle tries to run over to Sakura, who falls and doesn't move.

The bullet penetrated brilliantly from the frontal lobe and the eagle lost consciousness.

In conclusion, Sakura died and the eagle survived.

I guess I instinctively exercised 'power'. The eagle's flesh has become capable of regeneration to the point of abnormality, making it nearly impossible to die physically.

I had an immortal body if I told the entity. Too cruel a curse for a eagle who lost Sakura and even lost the point of living with it.

But now this body was rather convenient. Because even the sleepless rest allows eagles to continue their 'research'.

Replicate and resurrect the soul of Sakura.

Sakura's body lying asleep in the incubator where the eagle was. Originally a machine for regulating the flesh of the eagles Homunculus, it now uses this as a life-extending device to preserve Sakura's body as it was in its lifetime.

"... wait, Sakura"

The eagle shrugs quietly staring at the body of Sakura, who does not move to sleep in the incubator.

- I'm sure the eagle was already starting to break somewhere.

- Then, about 200 years went by.

"............ ha"

In a dim chamber, the dry laughter of the eagle echoes.

Weird. I can't wait to freak you out.

Oh, I can't believe I didn't realize it was this easy.

"Ha ha ha ha ha ha!!

The essence of life is the 'soul', and the flesh is nothing more than a 'vessel' that forms it.

Didn't this study draw conclusions from the beginning?

"Soul" is everything in life. Even if you can create a body with 100% of the same genes, "soul" that defines each life is impossible to manufacture 100% of the same.

Now, Homncrus has proven it. Sakura apparently made many eagles in the past, but no eagle had the same thought and spirit as the current eagle.

In other words, 'souls' will perish in the future once they die.

That was the conclusion of the study after 200 years.

"Hahahahahahahahahaha!! Hi-hi, ha-ha!!!!"

It was the limit.

I heard something crushing in the eagle.

It was unacceptable to die in a world that lost Sakura and lost the meaning of living, and it was all pointless to try to resurrect Sakura in the last resistance.

There's no way I can keep it sane.

"- Meaning?"

Pompous.

The eagle I noticed squeaks small.

"Yes, if you die, your soul doesn't go to heaven, it doesn't reincarnate, it just disappears. Nothing goes away. It all makes no sense."

If so, what were your memories of Sakura?

What did you live for?

I'm sure the eagle isn't the only one who noticed this fact. Perhaps the fact that humans are instinctively blind while noticing.

So why would humans want to live while they're all doomed to disappear? Why are you acting like it makes sense to live?

In the first place.

In the first place, why does this world exist?

――――

I know it's a leap of thought.

But I'm pretty sure this is a targeted idea.

Live long, but if you die to finish a short life, we're all the same.

Then isn't all this life now living just a waste of time?

"... okay, Sakura"

Squeezing his trembling fist, the eagle raises his face and speaks to Sakura, who sleeps in the incubator.

"Let's make your wish come true. The eagle will let you know your name in this world. You make the greatest masterpiece that will end the world. It's clearer than ever."

The face of the eagle is reflected in the culture vessel.

The expression was frighteningly insane at the same time, and she had a very delightful grin.

"So starting today, the eagle will become Sakura. The eagle lives with Sakura's name on his back. That would make your memories and emotions meaningless, wouldn't it?

And.

At dawn when you fulfilled your wish.

The eagle will go to you too.

So tighten it in your heart.

The eagle.

No.

I turned my heels and walked away so that this Sakura could rebel against the world.
