"-Rakel. You don't want to do anything, do you?

It would have been the first year since Tula had lost her memory to ask me that.

After beating me to pieces with routine training, Tula said - my only master said gracefully, drinking tea.

"Non is from hiding. Even tea looks good in this way. You're still young. - It doesn't matter what you want to do.

"What I want to do......"

'You may wish to raise your name. You may want to be extravagant. No matter, I want to be held by a good man, okay?

"...... eh"

When I was stuck in the answer, Tula laughed at me.

"If it's the amount of utensils you need, you'll get a lot of money. It's not something I could have told Non, who cares about single nobles."

Tula, who will later meet her lifelong companion at the College of Spiritual Arts, says in other HR conditions, wetting her lips with tea.

... man.

I remember that joke of Toula, stirring up the empty head, twitching.

At the same time, cravings, like the gushing runoff, burst into madness.

'What I want to do...... I do'

Or.

Something I have to do.

"But... I don't know what that is"

I still thought, at this time, that there would be an answer to that in my lost memory.

Although.

Even now that I have regained my memory from birth until I met Tula, I do not know the cause of that runaway desire.

I got my memory back.

I remembered what I was doing.

- But I don't see why I did that.

Out of the house where I was born and raised.

Wandering the world.

Find the old master of Agarez.

It's like I knew from birth that I was going to fight that girl X.

'... right. The Elf's life is long - find it slowly, okay?

However, Tula continued.

'If even a man in love could have done it, he wouldn't have time to blur. Elves are the only privilege to have a long life - life short, love, maiden. Well, in this case, is it a man's life that's shorter?

◆◆◆―――――――◆◆◆―――――――◆◆◆

I woke up on the bed.

……………………

I haven't dreamed of a hundred years ago in a long time because Samizina showed me Tula's moves...

Even now that I have my previous memories back, the ten years I spent with Tula are memorable.

But unfortunately, I didn't have time to be immersed in memories.

It was almost a week since Jack's public execution - and the head-to-head confrontation between the United Troika and the Demon King's Army.

I have been following the footsteps of Azerea who took Jack away ever since.

I almost crossed the Republika Sénri and even came to a land that could be called a periphery.

I also cared about Elvis and the Helminas, but the margin of concern for them did not exist to me.

More than spiritual...... in time.

More than a month has already passed since the last save point.

If you have a long sense of time elf, the old master said the savepoint interval should also be longer, but come on, the limit should be close.

Whenever a new savepoint comes along, it's not weird.

Or maybe he's already here.

In any case, there is a risk in the time-leap across savepoints.

It will reduce life expectancy - the old master said.

It will strain the soul, he said.

I could not ask you to explain what exactly that is, but I am sure that we should avoid it as much as possible.

... The savepoint comes while you sleep.

Maybe it's time to refrain from sleeping.

Or do you want to start over now?

……………………

Whenever something unforeseen has happened, I have considered its last resort.

Previously, I dismissed the idea that it made no sense to go back in time without any plan.

But now......

"………………"

Ruby's face flickers.

A grin that seems to be laughing and not laughing flickers.

- With this power, are you sure you want to get out of that girl?

Time leap - [leading cause and effect].

I thought with this spiritual technique, I could beat that girl X who doesn't know how to handle it.

But actually......

Last world.

She was, indeed, Azerea.

Yet this time it was ruby.

Unless I alter the past, the world shouldn't change.

And yet - one, how?

I don't know.

Absolutely, I don't know.

I just think that some transcendent force has worked, far outpacing even the time-leap.

For example, yes.

God like......

"... even if it's God"

As I inspired myself, I crushed one.

"I'm not going to let Jack push the tragedy."

If that were fate, I would deny it.

If that's fate, I reject it.

Yes, tell yourself - I swallowed fear.

◆◆◆―――――――◆◆◆―――――――◆◆◆

Azerea seemed to be hiding her footsteps well and the pursuit was not a glimmer.

But fortunately, I have nearly seventy different spiritual arts.

He pulled information out of listening using scam spirituality and followed Azelea and Jack's footsteps using spirituality and fully remembered spirituality that brightened the five senses.

Then we reach an empty house.

[The King of Conflict] - I'll check inside with "King's Eye," but there's no sign of people.

Are you out... after you left already?

Either way, there's no reason not to step in.

I went inside, sneaking my footsteps, checking the room one by one.

It's like it's barely under control, it's like it's ruined.

The dust falls, the floor corrodes by the way and the hole is empty.

In the meantime I found a relatively beautiful room.

Looks like a bedroom with one bed.

I approached the bed and gently touched it.

... cold.

But there are definitely signs that someone was asleep.

Around the pillow, a few hairs had fallen.

There are two types, one with characteristic redhead - Azelea's hair.

Azelea and Jack revealed the night in this bed.

But it looks like he left a long time ago...

"... hmm?

Turning the hanging cloth, there was a puffy red stain on the sheet.

... I don't know, this.

Blood?

The moment I tried to touch it, I saw signs behind my back.

"Huh!?

I immediately use the 'King's Eye'.

Processing information pouring in as much as Rage Tao is a bone breaking task for me that I'm unfamiliar with, but I was barely able to detect where the signs were.

Jump out the window.

Just beneath, a girl jumped in escaping from the empty house.

The girl looks up at this one hah, but it's too late.

Assemble on the ground with the momentum of the fall.

"Who?"

I knew it wasn't Azerea.

I don't see any characteristic red hair, and Azelea would come close enough to intercept with a flame.

The girl looked up at my face and bent her lips as she was assembled from her back.

"Hi...... Long time no see. Do you remember me?

"... you..."

It looked familiar.

Shortly after the collapse of the college, I used to live with Jack in Reaver's mansion at a time when he was blocking in.

Binny.

I belonged to the Evil Spiritualist Guild, one crack of a twin magician......

"You... Sure, now to the Demon King's Army..."

"Really... you've come out now and done something extra, haven't you, Mr. Rackel?"

In Vinny's eyes, there was hatred.

He was staring at me like he was slapping it.

"You denied Mr. Jack... You denied that Mr. Jack, still desperate or hurt, still tried to move on! That mention is this zama......! Mr. Jack was exposed, stoned, and now he's missing! Are you satisfied!! Are you satisfied with this, you are!!

"... eh"

My family, my fiancée, all that remained beside Jack, who lost everything, was me and... them twins.

We desperately supported the blocked Jack... and at its end I denied Jack, who chose the way of the Demon King, and they supported him.

Indeed, I may not have succeeded in denying Jack what he would have done from the top.

But even if you affirm Jack as the Demon King, what you're waiting for is ruin.

"... tell me, Vinny"

So I dared to ignore her abominations.

Because I just had an argument with her and I know I don't have an answer.

"Is the Demon King Army grabbing Jack's place? How far are you coming?

"Ha! Why don't you force me to ask you more. Like I did to Mr. Jack......!

... I can't choose the means.

Somewhat, look at the painful eyes...

"- Huh!?

Having distracted myself from it (...), I immediately flew away from the viney.

Shortly afterwards, DOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!! A long gunshot is fired that creates bullet marks on the sideways wall.

Sniping......!!

Vinny stood up in that gap.

I wonder if she threw something on the ground, white smoke wraps around the area.

Smokescreen bullets...!

I tried to track down vinnies in "King's Eye".

But...

"Yikes......!!

The information coming in from "Wang Eye" was full of noise.

If you look up at the sky in the face, countless bats are flying in the daytime.

Come on, right...!

Nearly ten years ago, Jack used it on his Elvis opponent, 'King's Eye' jamming by ultrasound......!

Not as familiar with the handling of 'King's Eye' as Elvis, I could not determine the position of vinnie from among the noises of ultrasound.

When the smokescreen cleared up, the area began to bother.

I'm guessing the city residents heard the shooting earlier.

I give up on Vinny's pursuit and leave the spot.

... You shouldn't rely too much on 'Wang Eye'.

The "King's Eye" of a burning blade doesn't work for the Demon King's Army, which has been working on Elvis' countermeasures as a brave man.

- Are you satisfied with this, you are!!

Binny's stuffing echoes in my head.

... not satisfied, no.

I... I'm just...

I want Jack to be happy... just that.
