There was so much I didn't know about Tula Cleese, my master, yet.

All I know is that Tula lived quietly in the back of the woods, and she was not revered by the Everlasting Spiritual King, Spiritualists throughout the Kingdom of Laes, who made her head of the College of Spiritual Arts as the Grand Master Ancestor.

And of course.

I knew so little about her as Clive Cleese's wife that I could say.

That... although it's just a glimpse - now that I think about it, it's really the last thing.

The night the Battle of the Spirit King approached.

The night I cried before her for the first time in a long time...

◇◇◇―――――――◇◇◇―――――――◇◇◇

The moonlight was quietly shining a glass of wine in Toula's hands.

Dim College Chief Executive Office.

I watched from the side Mr. Tula and Mr. Clive, sporadically bickering as they quarreled with wine.

... Why did you say you would quit the Spirit King?

That's just what I wanted to ask, so I was going to be free soon...... I don't know, I've been staying a long time.

'... what's up, Rachel? Look at you so much. Anything unusual?

Tula with a slightly uplifted face, loosely pointing this way.

- Nothing, it's not uncommon.

- I just kind of... wanted to watch you two.

"It's not even that funny, we are."

Mr Clive said with a bitter smile seeping in.

"Just old age. Look, it might be a little unusual. '

"Come on. Do you treat me like I'm old? Still don't mean to be picky, do you?

'For me. But I don't know about it for the others.'

"Even though you're young, Clive. At that age, I didn't know you still had a desire for exclusivity? Hihihihi...... '

I loosen my cheeks for playful exchanges.

With half a century, there must have been one or two things you wouldn't mind eating.

There must have been some fights.

Because I don't like it, I'm sure.

Still, now, the two of them are laughing loosely, drinking.

That's probably a very nice thing to find out from me too...

"- Am I jealous?

With a mischievous grin, Tula was looking at me.

'I hope I can do it sometime for you. All my life, there's someone beside me that I want to accompany.

... Ha. You ever talk about something similar back in the day?

I laugh.

Sure, I used to tell similar stories.

At that time, you said you were going to marry me... because now I'm totally obsessed with Mr. Clive.

Because of the life expectancy of the elves, the term 'lifetime' has no realism.

But I think...

Those who wanted to see the future were also with me.

As Tula was about to see through Mr. Clive's life...... I wanted to see through his whole life.

...... oh, why not.

When I think about the future (it) that will come one day, my chest is so stuck that I want to cry......
