Different worlds of the last heaven and knights of the fist.
7. Girl's troubles and boy's thoughts
It was not until nightfall that I arrived at Midir College.
We were supposed to get there in the bright light if we were supposed to, but I asked the soldier who came to collect the draughtrow, "How did you disable all three draughtrows? He asked me," I couldn't even say, "Liquid protection defeated me bare hands," and I made up a painful excuse to say, "I managed to defeat the last remaining one because the three of them were arguing with each other," and even took down the Silver Leprechaun Squad "Silvalios," which I kept asking for, and as a result I ate more time than I expected.
The truth is I should have just talked to Bergrette when she communicated with her sister, but things just happened, and she didn't seem to mind that much either.
For this reason, I was specially sent out to the carriage because I ran out of time, and it finally arrived.
"Ugh... wow..."
Liquid protection had leaked a sigh of admiration, as I had also forgotten the fatigue caused by such haste and unfamiliar journeys in carriages.
A huge moon floating far above. Little visible lights from the interior of a huge building sitting in front of you.
It also looks illuminated by them and floats in the dark night - Midir College.
Its appearance soars on a hill far from the city, like a giant stone castle. Surrounded by walls, blue flags can be seen shaking on the roof.
"Welcome to Midir College. The old castle has been renovated and used, so it doesn't look the same as a typical school building."
Flip the hem of the long skirt and explain as Belgrette looks back.
A castle-like building - not a fact, a castle.
Schools that keep large numbers of students, etc. may be as robust a facility as this, beyond the menace of resentful demons.
"... uh? What am I doing here...?
I'm overwhelmed by a giant castle. I don't know much about drift protection anymore.
"... I've come to examine your qualities. Because it could be a clue to getting my memory back. Let's go. Follow me."
After Belgrette, enter the College premises.
The first thing that greeted them was a tidy lawn spread out on one side. On top of it were benches, well-maintained trees, and exterior lights illuminating them. It conveys a dim but somewhat small-sprickly atmosphere.
"I'm walking right now. This is the courtyard. The largest building in the front is the school building. The building next to it is the student building. It's where students sleep. So, what we're going to is the building behind it."
Look around. Is it because it's night, I don't see any other students.
Lose as much and reach in front of that smallest building.
"Right here. The research building."
It was a building that even had a creepy atmosphere because it was in the corner and dark among the walls.
"... Dear Belle"
"What. Suddenly," Sama "again."
"I'm not gonna get autopsied, am I?
…………
"Why Shut Up"
"I'm not the one who decides that..."
"Oh, thank you for your help."
He raised his voice upside down, and the drift shield tried to turn back with a beautiful turn right.
"Huh. Haha, just kidding. Well, the Doctor here is a very unusual person. All the girls are bad at it.... Ya, I'm a little bad at it too. But don't worry, it's a place to properly and publicly inspect the Divine Chant" Oracle ". Because it also explains the situation properly. Hehe hehe."
Did you get into a bump, Belgrette, holding your mouth by your hand and continuing to laugh elegantly? But that smile was so adorable, I didn't feel rather bad.
"Hey, what... so you can come in?
"Hehe. Go ahead. What? Surprisingly cautious?
"No, I didn't."
- Right. You're so strong.
"Hmm? Did I say something?
"... yeah. Nothing. Let's go in."
The building was dim and messy. There are also a bunch of paper, cluttered desks and chairs, and scattered things that I'm not sure what it is.
Following Belgrette, we go up the spiral staircase.
"Good evening, Dr. Locke. We've just arrived."
"Oh. You're here. You're here."
The man in white, who was in the messy room when he did it, looked back in response to Belgrette's voice.
Her hair is crisp and bright white. Around the mix of dirty gray, I guess it's the grey hair "Shiragi" instead of the color it was born in. You look close to the Japanese, but you can't read at all how old you are.
He wears small glasses, produces a barren mustache, and cigarettes on his unhealthy colored mouth. Of course, I'm not familiar with drift protection because I don't smoke or anything, but it seemed a little thick and close to a cigar.
A man of impression such as the typical 'Doctor of the Weird'.
"I'm listening. Sea currents protection cum"
"Oh."
"Hmm? What's wrong with you?
Lifeguard threatened to say "the pronunciation of the name was perfect," recalling his' amnesia setting '.
"Yes, no. Anything."
"Are you nervous? But the reality is brutal, you don't want to be nervous, but the moment" When "goes on ruthlessly... Oh..."
Wow, yeah. I knew he was a weird person.
The Doctor goes on to talk about drifting protection that seriously worries me about jumping out the window and running away.
"Oh. You didn't introduce yourself. I'll call you Dr. Locke. Rockwave Terre the Great. Nice to meet you, boy."
Do you have such a name? I thought so, but there's no reason to speak up.
"Well, it's quick, but shall we get down to business? You were talking about amnesia and maybe getting a hint to connect to your identity by taking the Divine Chant" Oracle "test..."
"Yes."
It was Belgrette who answered.
"Shall we do it quickly? Stream cum, take off all your jackets and stand there."
Lifeguard, as he was told, took off all his jacket and got naked. Only the upper body, of course.
"………………"
Belgrette breathed.
Speaking of which, I recall drift protection. Belgrette had the same reaction when she took it off to get her flank treated.
"Hey, what's up, Belle?"
"... anything, nothing"
"Belle's an old girl, too."
But the annoying look on Bergrette's face didn't seem to mean what Dr. Locke would say. Really, like turning away from something you don't want to see. I wonder if my physical fitness is being pulled...... and the flow protection makes me feel a little complicated.
"Even so, you look very well. Digos must be bright blue, too. This is"
Pep, and something cold was put on the body of the drift guard. More than one stethoscope is connected to the body of the fluid shield.
"Well, don't sit still."
Dr. Locke manipulates what looks like a do-it-yourself and analog-chick machine on his desk and stares at what looks like a monitor on the side. Less than a minute later, the Doctor gave a signal voice.
"Yes, I'm done. You can wear it."
"Oh, that's enough."
"Dr. Locke. How did it go?"
The first person I asked was Belgrette.
"Yeah. You don't."
"What? No?
Just because he doesn't know what it means, Belgrette listens back.
"Meaning as it is. There is no inner power… the soul heart power Pralna itself, which is needed to manipulate the Divine Chant" Oracle "in the driftshield kun. So naturally, you can't use the Divine Chant" Oracle. "
"Hmm...... there must be such a person......!
Belgrette speaks out in amazement.
Naturally, I wasn't surprised.
"Mmm. Well, maybe some people like that, huh? No, I'm here. Everyone loves the Geiselius of" The Dragon's Extinction Secretary, "because at the time, there seemed to be no such thing as the" Oracle "theory of Divine Chanting, but he said he never used the" Oracle "of Divine Chanting in his lifetime."
"Fairy tales and reality aren't the same. Great!
Belgrette's voice was absurd.
"Belle...?
Why there, Belgrette becomes fierce. I don't know about drift protection, I look at her like a jerk.
"That's right. Geisserius is ideal. Weak, the ideal of a creature called man." I want to be strong like Geiselius. I want to be like this' I give you that dream, you fairy tale brave man. But in reality, humans are weak. So he makes tools, produces the Divine Chant, Oracle, and lives close by. If Lugo doesn't have anything and can't use the Divine Chant "Oracle" that's so strong... it's not human anymore!
Belgrette screamed to squeeze.
"- You can't have that statement. You should apologize to him."
Pushing up the frame of glasses with his fingers, Dr. Locke says in a serious tone.
"Ah......"
When Belgrette looked at the drift protection reflexively, she popped out of the room with a frightened look.
"... hmm. No offense, either. Forgive me."
"No, well. I know, I know."
I've been told many times in alley fights that I'm not human. If you're strong and they say so, that's a compliment. As for drift protection, which is not actually human in this world in the first place, I'm not so shocked.
What bothers me more than that is why Belgrette messed up.
"- Hold on, I guess."
Dr. Locke guesses and answers.
"She is a proud knight. No, I guess it was an apprenticeship, not yet. Nevertheless, it does not change its soul, which was born in the household of a noble knight. As she said, humans are weak. At best, a medium-sized dog is the limit for someone who can win with his bare hands, right? Anyway...... the power she, such a weak person, learned the sword as a knight, completed the Divine Chant" Oracle "and wore desperately. Protect your weakness, your power as a knight. The fact that you lightly override that power without a sword or the divine chant Oracle. I guess I can't honestly accept that. My life itself has been denied... I guess I feel that way"
Dr. Locke looks up through the window at the moon called Ish Marni and spits out cigarette smoke.
"As a result of the examination, if you were a 'man who could use the powerful Divine Chant" Oracle "... then you must still be convinced. But all you had was strength. It's like she said... a fairy tale dweller."
The Doctor continues as he presses the shortened cigarette against the ashtray.
"She is also the sixth chanter, Magee, in this college, counting from above. Because the top five are a little wacky... in essence, I guess it's an exaggeration to call this college's most brilliant chanter, Maggie. I don't think you can pin this on me, but this is amazing. She's a bright, unproud, well-done daughter, but at the same age... and if a more skilled person appeared than herself without using the divine chant" Oracle, "I guess it would also make her feel complicated."
……
I felt similar.
Quite confident karate skill didn't make it through and lost sight of his goal.
Belgrette suddenly appeared in front of her when "The Not Sure Man of Amnesia" surpassed the power she polished as a knight.
"Liquid protection cum for now. Not really, you'd better keep your eyes peeled. There is no precedent, at least as far as I know, for a human being without a soul and mind" Prarna, "and then he is as skilled as slaughtering Drauthor with bare hands alone. It could be a troublesome spring. Let's just say I didn't even see the results of this test. Don't worry, Belle's not a mundane kid either."
"I see...... ok.... No."
So the shield turns to Dr. Locke.
"You're not surprised. Even if you know me."
"Hmm? No, I'm still surprised by this. I have confidence in the poker face. Better than that, Belle, why don't you go after him? No, you're a youth."
Belgrette was leaning against the wall outside, nagging.
"Hey."
The drift guard speaks in a casual manner.
"Ahhh......, that. Um. Sorry, Lugo."
The girl has been apologizing like she's really sorry. He looked like he was going to cry.
"I don't know. You look like a tundra, but you're honest."
"Tsum... then?
"I need to talk to you about something. Now, how far does Master Bell believe me?"
"Huh... what?
Lifeguard looks up at the big moon overhead - Ish Mani, and immediately returns his gaze to Belgrette.
Inhale and tell.
"I'm not from this world."
There was no change in the look on Belgrette's face. Perhaps you don't understand what it means.
"Amnesia is a lie. I was hiding it because it would be confusing to say," I'm not from this world. "
"... uh? Like I said right now."
Surprisingly calm, Belgrette reacts with a decent face.
"Don't you feel like believing it now? You saw my power."
…………
"There's no such thing as the Divine Chant" Oracle "in the world I was in, and there's no such thing as a bakemon as a grudge demon. Changingly, uh... science and all that, um..."
Belgrette was inclined to her little neck like, "I don't know what you're talking about". Even though it was the words that made sense, it still seemed difficult to explain to humans whose civilization levels and the world itself were different.
"Do you have any details? Maybe Bell doesn't understand. I... well, I hope you think I'm from a distant world where I can't walk away"
"Well, even if they say so..."
"Anyway, it is. So... it's me from the world, and you... you need to lose confidence. I was there, too. There's someone in the world who can't win. I know how you feel, wow. But when it comes to you, I'm not from this world. So don't worry about it."
Belgrette, who was pocan, smiled a little.
"... you know what? Are you consoling me?
"Yes, no, well. That's why I care."
"That's what makes it so hard. I'm a trained knight, too. Not that I'm proud of you, but I'm quite proud of you... and I know there's so much difference between you and Lugo that you can't compare... after all, it sucks"
I said that with a slightly sad face.
"But what does that mean? He said he's not from this world. There is no Divine Chant" Oracle "and no resentment demons, I can't believe it. In the first place, if you were born as a human being, you would definitely be enclosing your soul and mind, and if so, you should be able to use the Divine Chant" Oracle "in any way... I've never heard of an area without a grudge demon."
This is what this is all about.
What a conceptual fantasy world with magical powers, monster-like monsters, and being watched over by God. Humans living in such a world probably don't understand the very fact that their place is a planet, or that that planet is just one of the objects in space. Don't we believe that where we are is everything and that the ground continues everywhere? You wouldn't even think of going around and coming back to where you came from.
I don't know in detail what the level of civilization is in this world called Grimcrows, but I can imagine that academia hasn't developed that far.
"Bell. You know what gravity is?
"... Ju, Rikku?
It still is. I guess we don't even think that we exist by being drawn to the ground, etc. If so, it seemed difficult to explain to Belgrette the explosive power of drift protection - probably because of the weak gravity of this world.
"Hmm, maybe I'm not wrong to say 'not human' though. From the people of this world."
"Oh, I'm sorry..."
"No, I'm not, I don't care. I'm not from this world, so I hit about half the time. All right, this story is over!
"..., yeah"
I have a lot to ask, but it's hard to ask before I say something terrible.
That appearance has also been conveyed to the shield.
"Oh! He's better than I thought, and you're a girl! You, Belle... Belle boy. This Bell Child."
"Hmm, Belle... what's 'co'...?
"I often say 'child' to a girl's name in my country. Keep it up, girl's 'kid'. All right, you. Next time, Belle."
"Hey, what's that..."
"... ah"
Lifeguard leaked his voice as he remembered.
"Hey, what? What's the matter, man?
"Yes. I do come from a different world. But."
"But?
"You don't know how to get back to the original world..."
Liquid protection snorted at Gakuri.
"If your story was true... how did you get here in the first place?
"No, I would have noticed. I told Minette that I was confused... and I told Minette that I had amnesia..."
"... yeah, that's the only way..."
Belgrette looks up at the night sky silently. He was caught and looked up at the drift protection the same way.
Floating there, a giant circle. Stream protection is with the moon. Belgrette is with Ish Marni.
The true circle of white light, recognizing each one as different, even though the words used are the same.
"... All right. Let's do this."
Belgrette turns to the shield as she decides.
"Until I figure out how to get back to the original world, I just need to be here... in this college"
"No, that's... okay?
"You need to live in this world until you know how to get home, right? Your skill can actually exorcise a grudge demon, but it's too conspicuous to defeat a grudge demon without even using the divine chanting technique Oracle. Students can't take shape, but why don't you work at this college for a while, make some money, and find out how to get home sooner or later?
"Right..."
We need to live in this world undeniably until we know how to get home. I have no intention of going. I don't even have the money in this world. The only person I know is Belgrette. The choice doesn't seem to start from the beginning.
"... Okay, okay. I'll take care of you for a while. Nice to meet you, Belle."
"You really call me by that name...... uh, nice to meet you. Lugo."
If we did it, we were two people who would carefully bow their heads to each other.
The two of them in a slightly embarrassing air, they don't realize.
Sent from the shadow of the building, to that gaze.
