As I was running down the aisle towards the basement, my sister went in to collapse.

"Ha ha... but already..."

"Stand up. Firm."

Reaching out, but also judging herself to be impotent.

My sister was unable to reach her feet until last month. He lacks physical strength and walking experience. But that's why I don't have time to be long.

"Hih! to, brother!?

"Complaints will be accepted later"

I lifted that luxurious body with or without it and started moving again.

She didn't complain, she just lay her face down and shut up. The feeling of being pulled at the collar of your chest. The little hand of the trembling girl was anxiously grasping the edge of her clothes.

"I'm fine.... because it's okay"

That word I spoke to her, or it could have been something I would say to myself.

"... hey brother. I wonder how this happened. Peace all the way, happiness... I wish I'd lived there."

"... the end has come. That's all."

I'm sure that's really just it. Talk about just saying that one day the end will come, more than there was a beginning long ago.

"... but I haven't given up"

"What?"

"Promise me we'll make the world together. Don't give up, I'm not here."

"Yes,"

Yes, I took an oath.

Whatever happens.

"..."

Keep leaning on her.

"...!

Keep supporting this bloody unconnected sister until she dies.

"Ku,"

"Customers!

When I opened my eyes, the driver was calling.

"We're here, sir. Sasakuru Park, right?"

"............... Oh, thank you"

In a quiet shake and engine noise, the old man looks back at this one.

I gave him a bill saying that fishing was unnecessary, and appropriately said he was confused and got out of the cab.

A tail lamp with a red tail pull bends the corner and disappears into the shadow of the wall. Cold, clear night air. See the quiet spot without the popular Hitoshi, lit by neglected exterior lights. A large park, surrounded by long promenades and planted trees.

"Well..."

It's time. Will they be here?

Sharpen and concentrate your senses.

(... there are... four of us in the park.... of which two are they...?

Surprised, because two other people besides Lifeguard and Belgrette weren't just passers-by, they had unexpected facial rashes.

(... Sure... to Ryozo Kirihata, was it Lotus Castle Colorful Flowers? Both of them are related to Shiatsu)

The odd thing is that each of them is somewhere else. Lifeguard and Belgrette seem to be together in the back of the park, but Good Buildings and Colorflowers travel in different positions by themselves separately.

I don't even know what the shield did to them. Stupid. I wouldn't even be able to tell you everything honestly.

Either way, it's irrelevant if you say it the way you pushed it away.

(Naturally...... you guys don't invite)

Focus your consciousness as you step inside the park.

(I'm sorry... if you need a goodbye greeting, just get it done by now. Don't regret it...)

It's the only thing I can say since I became this person, I worked on that preparation that required 'chanting'.

In the darkness of the night, I turn my eyes to the bow and the glowing electric clock.

"... time"

"Yes."

He nodded with Belgrette, who held one hand together as he was aligned with his back, and the drift guard looked around.

The time finally received nine o'clock the night designated by the mysterious figure.

Surrounded by darkness, a quiet corner of the park. There are no light sources other than dotted exterior lights or lights that leak from distant houses. There is no noise but the groaning of the trees shaken by the faint wind.

There is no appearance of someone or a sudden ambush.

At least for now.

……

Strain your nerves.

Swallow gokuri and spit out of the tension that increases in response.

(What happens...? What happens...?

Does the person in the example show up? Like six months ago, do you make abrupt 'metastases'? Of course, there is still no chance that anything will ever happen.

Grasp Belgrette's hand, which is connected, all the way back to back. As I responded, I also felt a grip back from her.

(... no... even when you fell into that big hole in the castle, you were holding hands like this...)

And that was the moment I thought about it.

There is one shadow coming this way, illuminated by distant exterior lights.

"Are you here......!?

"Huh!"

Belgrette also lines up next door and looks at its shadows.

... but it's weird.

The person seemed to come running desperately, like he was exhausted - breathing constantly. I'm looking around with Kyoro Kyoro, and I'm very restless.

I didn't know that was an example messenger.

――――――――――――――――――――

And the drift shield ceased. Totally rigid.

Yes. That could never have been the mysterious person or anything like that who sent me the e-mail.

Glossy brunette with stretched hips. Small, neat, adorable face. A uniform that is familiar to driftshields.

Round your neck looking for someone. He's coming this way even as he's about to fall in, the person. I haven't noticed this one yet. But the girl approached you two so that you could be drawn to something.

Liancheng colorful flowers.

Make it a childhood friend of drift protection, precious girl.

And I decided to leave without telling you anything, that opponent...

The throat of the drift shield dried up completely.

(Dude.............................................................................................................................................................................................................................................

Why are you here?

Just as confused, the drifting guard gazed at the colorful flowers approaching this way. I could only do that.

The place is a park at night with sparse lighting. Noticed. If she comes this way any further, she will notice. In a few seconds or so. To your own existence.

Follow her behavior, like circling her neck and searching for 'someone', and her long, black hair shakes saggily.

At the same time, the mind of drift protection.

I don't see colorful flowers. I won't let you know.

I just decided that by disciplining myself, I wasn't able to erase my emotions. I didn't face to face with her, so I just made up my mind because I decided unilaterally without actually exchanging words.

If we go through this phase, we can't help but shake it.

Don't come./Come.

Don't notice./Notice.

(- I... I want you -)

I have to shake it off./I don't want to shake it off.

"... a... ya,... ca?

It was that voice heard right from the side that drew the drift protection back from the fierce grid and agitation.

――――

The boy faces next to him like he was bounced.

Belko, now...... what did you say?

with such questions.

Belgrette opened her eyes and stared at the girl in uniform coming this way - Lotus Castle Colorful Flowers.

That's good. If there were a human approaching in this scene, no would turn a blind eye to it. But.

Zo, and the spine of the drift protection shook up.

Instantly, I even forgot that colorful flowers were coming just around the corner.

The problem is the color of Belgrette's eyes.

Because the colour was stained deeper in pitch black than in the dark night.

There was no sign of a man in Sacrament Park at night.

"Holy crap, ha,......!

I can't breathe anymore. My knees are giggling cranky, too.

Lotus Castle Colorful Flowers circles her neck as she nearly coughs up half the time. Already, even such casual behavior was a hundred million hijackings.

Speaking of which, I wonder what the person who was sitting on that promenade was. Given that you were in a trainer, were you even taking a break in the middle of a jog?

"Ha... Ha, ha, ha,"

Colorful flowers still move to the back of the park, almost falling in, even though everything that has been done so far has snuck away with no thought of pacing.

Step by step, also revamping the section with the square and playthings.

Thus came the narrow road near the public toilet.

".................. ah"

Unexpected, exhalation was leaking out of her throat.

About fifteen meters away. Nestled there, see what it looks like.

Shorter dark hair. Feminine and adult face. I wear clothes thick because of the seasonal pattern, but I know the colorful flowers. Underneath, he said that his forged body was hidden.

That face, which seemed to be six-monthly, seemed slightly more rigorous.

"Stream, protect..."

There he is. Finally.

but he hasn't seen this one. He faces the person standing right next to him.

(... who...?

It was an incredibly beautiful woman. Long hair, Japanese detached model-like shape, small face. The outfit itself is as casual as her generation wears, and strangely holds a large amount of luggage, but that doesn't compromise her beauty.

It's like, an ideal image.

I didn't seem like someone with a very good connection to getting to know him.

"... Huh!?

What was unusual was the girl's eyes.

Black.

Even at a distance, I can clearly recognize why.

Miscellaneously beta-painted monochrome.

Those two darknesses are staring at us. Remains completely faceless.

- Le, na

"Huh!"

Reflectively uncomfortable, the colorful flowers turn to the drifting shelter right next to the woman.

My childhood friend Boy hasn't noticed this one yet.

I just had a fiercely unpleasant feeling. Intuitive.

We need to get the shield off this woman.

If we don't, something absurd will happen... and we won't be able to take it back.

- K, Luna.

My heart jumps. I heard something. The woman with those dark eyes hasn't made it faint. I didn't even move my mouth, but I did hear something like a voice.

"Ri..."

- Come on, Luna. Homecoming.

Unexpectedly stop the almost raised voice.

That's an obvious word of rejection. A low, groaning voice emanating from a woman who doesn't make it faint... so for some reason it sounds familiar.

Is that instinct? Somewhere in my mind, colorful flowers seemed like other personnel. He said it was like a final notice.

(What is it...! Sounds stupid......!

Laughing off my thoughts like that,

"Streak!

That's how the colorful flowers I decided to scream and

- Nara,

Cocode death, sir.

"Primary killer" me.

It was at the exact same time that the darkness overflowed from the woman.

……

It is not the darkness of the night. Not even a shadow.

"Something" that even swallows light spreads like fog from the woman's feet.

I saw an unlikely phenomenon and was unintentionally total furious.

"Refuge! Streak!............!?

I screamed desperately - I should have. but I haven't got a voice.

Of course, I haven't noticed the drift protection here.

"but hey -!"

And the feeling of something sticking around your throat. There's something black standing around.

"Ryu,"

The ground, the public toilets behind it, the implanted trees, the street lights and their light all swallow in pitch black.

narrow field of view. My ears are far away. The sensation of the body becomes uncertain….

"Stream,... protect...!

I stretched out my hand, and I looked like a driftshield. And even the voices that make it out, they get smeared.

Until the end of the day, the flower shield turned toward the colorful flower - something he never realized.

I didn't think of it as Belgrette.

Not the usual, gemstone-like light-ice "Ice Blue". Nor can I feel the tender emotions that dwell in love.

Just an inorganic gaze. Monochrome black like ink dropped.

"Be, Belle -?"

At the same time as the dreaded call, there was an anomaly.

As the thread was cut, Belgrette's body creased on the spot.

"! Belko, duh, what's up!?

We turned our gaze toward the colorful flowers approaching us as we supported her skinny -, it should have been.

".......................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................

There, there was no appearance of colorful flowers.

On the contrary, there were no more views of the park, such as outdoor lights and outdoor watches. It should have been right behind me, and the concrete walls were disappearing.

There are - even depressed and lush, forest landscapes. And a blue mist drifting between the trees without a thousand times.

".................. Ah,"

Only breath, its clear air flavour convinces me of drift protection.

I'm back.

To Grim Crows.

Besides, this is the first one.

"………, again……"

Sometimes I guess I was distracted by the fallen Belgrette - nor was I aware of the moment of metastasis.

And

(Colorful flowers...)

Why did she come to that place? With such a desperate look and a constant breath.

The reason for this is no longer known. Because this is how I metastasized before she found me.

(..., shit. Great, now...)

Horrible, unfortunate...... complicated thoughts filled my chest.

No more.

Now, seeing her... is gone again.

"..."

So Belgrette, who was holding him over, opens his eyes.

"Oh, have you noticed... Belle child"

"Wow, but...?

The color of the nagging open eyes is the usual beautiful light ice color Ice Blue. It's not black like that thinning cold. Calling gently, with relief.

"... I suddenly collapsed. Are you okay?"

"Mm......, it's okay...... Ah... oh, this is..."

"... oh. Looks like he's back. To Grim Crows."

The surroundings are dark woods where you can even feel the creeps. Nestled among them are modern Japanese outfits. Large luggage bracketed on shoulders and back.

"Back, here you are...?

Stand up slowly as Belgrette ascertains her own body.

At the same time, close your eyes and spread your hands -

"... Ha!

Shake your right arm sharply. In response, a stream of silver appeared hollow. Not a slightly dripping Shizuku. Powerful, swirling amount of running water.

"Oh! You're out right......!

The Divine Chant "Oracle" was activated properly. I don't even doubt it anymore. It's happening again. To Grim Crows.

"Hih!?

But there, the screams of Belgrette, which haunted the water flow, echo.

Seeing as it was, the casual clothes she was wearing were soaking wet.

"Hey, what's up? Couldn't control the surgery well?

"Yes, no, it's not. I also lost sight of this clothing Yuz gave me because it doesn't have the talisman Rune..."

"Oh, well. That's right. I guess so."

The people of Grimcrows sew up something like an amulet called the talisman Rune in order to protect their clothes and other things from the damage of their art. No such thing is worn on contemporary Japanese clothing given by grapefruit, of course. It was natural to get wet if you touched the water you aroused.

"... back... you are"

Belgrette murmured emotionally as she returned the technique to the void and dropped her gaze in her own palm. On its face, there is a heartfelt relief.

Of course I was finally able to come home, but the fact that the Divine Chant "Oracle" was activated properly must be one of the factors.

The fact that art was not expressed in modern Japan. Because the concern that the Divine Chant "Oracle" was no longer available - that is, abandoned by God - must have been constantly swirling in her.

... and so on where the drift protection was thinking,

"Khushu"

Belgrette sneezes like she's cute.

Although not as good as that modern Japan that celebrated December, this forest is also cold. It's not a good season to wear water by mistake.

"Whoa, you'd better get dressed for now"

"Oh, yeah."

Pinch a large tree instead of a divider, and each one of them dresses up in Grimcrows standard clothing.

……

From comfortable contemporary Japanese clothing to sturdy outfits suitable for travelling in different worlds. The armor of an evil dragon wrapped around his arm, I also miss the feel of it.

"Okay. How's that? Have you finished dressing?

"Yes."

For the first time in about ten days, they were dressed as travellers from different worlds, looking side-by-side at the surrounding scenery. Depressed and quiet forest. Blue mist drifts like sewing between turbulent trees.

"Steady... no foretaste, you're back all the time..."

"Did Lugo see the moment we moved here?

"No, I had no idea."

I am also certain that I was distracted by the colorful flowers that suddenly appeared and by the fallen Belgrette, but there was nothing 'noticed' that made me aware of the movement. Just like that night when I first got lost in Grim Crows.

"In the end... the guy who sent me an example e-mail is not sure..."

I thought you might find out more about this cross-world metastasis phenomenon, but unfortunately it's not fruitful.

"Tsukubako, are you seriously okay with your body?

"Yep. I don't know why I fell..."

"I hope so..."

That's how I've settled down, and the drift shelter decided to cut out my doubts.

"Hey, Belle. I need to ask you something."

"Yeah?"

"Belle... remember earlier, just before you fell?

"Mmm... with Lugo, make sure it's time...,... sorry. From there..."

Memories before and after loss of consciousness remain uncertain. It's not unusual.

If so, that is,

(Do you mean you don't remember that Colorful Flowers came and whined his name...)

Belgrette doesn't know the face of colorful flowers.

Then maybe that's just what it sounded like. He groaned like a faint exhale.

In any case, even the Girl Knight herself will not know exactly what she said, more than her memory is obscured.

The question that will remain when that happens is:

(Um, black eyes......)

Just before he fell, Belgrette's eyes stared at the colorful flowers that were coming. An overwhelming dark color, like beta painted with paint.

Turn it around. Now, the same beautiful light ice color Ice Blue as always. That sign is dust-free.

"Hey, what? Lugo."

She shyly turns away because she stares at her eyes.

"Oh, no. Nothing."

I wanted to ask him this, but he said that.

How many minutes of "nothing," in a dark night park? Plus, the situation was the one. He was also severely upset as a drift shield, and there could be a great deal of misperceptions, illusions, etc. after misheard.

I didn't want Belgrette, who had just fallen for it, to be a strange blame for asking questions, etc.

First, does the color of the eyes change, etc.? For example, I may have just misseen my pupils open or did something.

"But I wonder why I fell again..."

When the girl knight dropped his gaze on her own palm, a clammy noise rang from the nearby grass leaves.

Together, stand tall.

It was an organism resembling a small fox that peeked into his face from the servant. I thought I stared at this one, and I quickly jumped to the back of the woods.

"A grudge demon...... that's not it. Just an animal."

"Yeah, I think so."

Nevertheless, we need to get our minds together. This is no longer a Japanese park where you can walk while looking at your phone. It is a dangerous forest of different worlds, where monsters from outside may strike.

"Well... I wonder where it is, here"

Considering the unique blue mist, it's definitely the first one.

but where in it.

How far is it from that abandoned castle where a line of inquiry would be staying?

If you are being flown far away, you can be shipwrecked and drooling wild if you do poorly. Because I'm back again, I just want to avoid that ending......

"Let's just get moving"

"Ugh, yeah...... oh, show me the scratch before that, Lugo. It's time to treat him."

"Oh, wow."

There are a number of things to think about.

What is going on with everyone in the Second White Eagles? In that abandoned castle, are you encouraging the excavation of the solidified soul and heart power Prarna? Think about it in time, it shouldn't mean you've already withdrawn it.

Who was the person who sent the example email after all? By what means is this otherworldly metastasis possible?

Why did colorful flowers come to that place?

As a starting point in the first place, why did you fly from the Great Hole of Abandoned Castle to Modern Japan?

I am also concerned about the physical condition of Belgrette, who collapsed twice in modern Japan.

……

All I don't know is why.

Now anyway, it's a prerequisite to rendezvous with everyone and let them know we're safe.

I would also like to report this unusual event to Dr. Locke.

After finishing first aid, the two began walking carefully through the blue woods.
