Do You Think You Can Run After Reincarnating, Nii-san?

"... Aaron,..."

Benny and Vinnie had lost their words in Aaron's appearance, transformed into an alien skeleton.

I've never had feelings for Aaron Bruit.

The Evil Spiritualist Guild was a less federated organization, and Aaron himself, a man who didn't know what he was thinking, who didn't feel humane.

Yet.

Even so.

- Not even human anymore, just skeleton.

- A corpse formerly known as Aaron Bruit, where everything that should exist as a person has been burned to the ground.

Its sad, lonely, pathetic.

As if it gave form to the word senseless, the appearance of...

- Terrible, terrible, poked them both in the chest.

◆◆◆―――――――◆◆◆―――――――◆◆◆

If you are a person, everyone will surely be frightened.

I couldn't exchange anything.

It didn't become anything.

After the answer was given that there was no point in being born (...), I was nevertheless forced to exist, as it were.

In front of Aaron, who became a monster of the skeleton, and now I am in his cowardice.

I don't want this to happen (...).

I just don't want to (...) be (...) on this.

There is no hope.

Aaron Bruit, who should hold it, is long dead, and he is nothing but that corpse.

Everything is over.

Yet for some reason, calling it despair or raw irrationality that I am continuing - I am sure I cannot bear it.

Philosophical zombies.

The last living corpse left by the evil spirit king Bifronce.

"Seven years ago, how many people suddenly returned to just corpses"

Aaron's voice sounds even though he doesn't have a tongue or a vocal cord.

"Thousands? Tens of thousands? That's an exact number. Nobody knows. Still, there's only one thing I can assure you - there's not a single reason I'm alive without them."

During the bundle I saw hallucinations.

Behind Aaron, who became a bone monster, countless chunks of grudging resentment.

Suddenly exposed seven years ago, tens of thousands of deaths.

In it, for a moment, I felt I had seen the face I had come to know.

Mr. Column.

Mr. Madeline.

...... Toula.

Oh, I also think somewhere in my heart.

I wish it wasn't Aaron who survived, but someone dear to me.

sin (...) that he has survived (...).

Survivors Gilt.

Only that number of resentments, he carries a sin.

An empty body with no blood or meat, just to crush itself.

"Come on, lady"

Gachari, and bone fingers grabbed the ground.

Bury me.

Vun, and the figure of the skeleton disappeared from the front.

Fast -!?

Even more so than just now!

I gave in almost instinctively.

Immediately after, something plunders my hair. If I twist myself and look back, there are several pieces of my hair tangled in the bones of my pointed fingers.

Now that Aaron has taken off the cover called meat, everything in his body is the murder weapon.

On the other hand, however, the muscles are also armor that protects the body. That means you took it off -!

I took the iron fan out of my nose.

[Song of Purity] - "Sky Earthquake"!

Bang! and spread the iron fan, while slamming the intense oscillating waves on the skeleton monster.

Bone conduction - the bone is completely defenseless against the attack of [the hymn of purity]......!

"Ha."

I heard a laugh with my nose.

Moments later, the skeleton that vibrated his whole body fell apart.

Like a building block - or, like, a plastic model.

"It's just a corpse in here"

A voice.

The fragmented skeleton remains in the universe as part!

You can't just kill a corpse.

From all directions, fragmented skeletons struck.

The ribs, the spine, the scapula, the femur, the skull, trying to eat my whole body.

"Ku......!

I just had to back off.

I just had to run away.

From the corpse seeking guidance, I...

My legs came together unexpectedly.

The reaction is delayed.

If I could fall apart, I could go back to normal - that possibility was out of my mind.

Strong kick to the abdomen.

[Nesting Penetrating Wings] made it, and although the damage could be absorbed, that's all.

I blow up like a soccer ball and punch my back against the wall of the building.

Shit, I thought it was totally at the same time.

And the arms of Bunn and the skeleton flew in, and held my neck against the wall.

I don't think I have any muscles, terrible powers.

My throat tightens tightly and I can't breathe......!

"Gu......! Ah...!

Grab the arm of the skeleton and secure the airway at all.

But it won't come off......! Strong......! I can't believe it's a corpse.

A skull came in front of me and looked at my face from up close.

"What's up, little lady? With your help, it should be easy to bury me."

"Me, yes...! I didn't come here to kill you...! Jack and I just came to talk...!

"Talk? Talk about what?

There is no expression on the skeleton.

"With this me. I can't even face this nothingness. What do you think you can talk to that kid about?

If it's about talking, it's as much as it takes.

Countless. I can't stand it.

So...!

"Bury me first. Let me know how barren I am and crawl miserably. Just like I did to the kids earlier!

Bikili, and a crack ran on the wall behind him, collapsing all at once.

Dust blocks sight.

Play the roar and the debris piles up.

I don't...

- On a pile of rubble, I fluttered down.

"... I can't admit it"

"... what?

From beneath the rubble mountain, Aaron Bruit, once again bound to the form of a monster, was looking up at me.

"It's a corpse, you say. barren, you say. If I admit it, it would have been... meaningless to spend my days with Mr. Column and Mr. Madeline in that Lieber house."

Those calm, but happy, days to reclaim above all else.

I won't let you denigrate me - because every day, there was.

"So I can't just admit that. For me...... for Jack!

[Scarce Dotted Hole]. And [the arming of thunderbolts].

Via the wormhole, dividing the lightning innumerably.

Large amounts of lightning struck the skeleton as if a swarm of snakes were going to kill to prey.

If we can disable it with this -!

"Admit it. It was pointless."

With a thunderstorm, but flat, the skeletal monster took a step forward.

"I don't know how happy you guys were, how glorious that life was - but I can still assure you. That time was pointless. What the hell is it worth playing with puppets, huh?

Make this city - hold Dimkuld, and Aaron opens his arms.

"That boy admitted it! It was pointless. He said it was worthless! Find, find, find and find a way to put the curtain down on yourself like that - that's how I finally found a cool way!!

"Is that what kills all mankind!?

"Oh. Isn't that refreshing? He said to make it all meaningless anyway!

The skeleton clasped its shoulders with a human trick.

"Everyone in this country is more or less so. I can no longer see the future. Even the past was smeared. There's a bunch of people who can't go anywhere, and they're all here to end it. Not at all. But, hey, that's the only salvation."

Bone fingers point to me.

With a futureless, hopeless, and still powerful hold.

Or can you present it to me? The future and the past are gone, and to us who have become a mass of nothingness, a more deserving way to pull the curtain!

In an instant, Aaron fell apart.

A skeleton divided into countless parts approaches like a storm.

I don't...

"I can"

I didn't back down.

I didn't run away.

From the countless impending bones, I grabbed only the skull precisely with my right hand - leaving the rest to let my whole body slap.

"... na..."

The ribs, the spine, the scapula, the femur.

To the chest, to the stomach, to the shoulders, to the thighs, piercing.

I don't even use [nested permeable wings].

Though it hurt, it was hard, it seemed to cry - still.

"That past-- that memories, they're not lies. Even the future is right. It won't go away that easy......! I have come to teach it!!

Because I'm a master.

Because I'm familiar with childhood.

Look at that kid's, his, life all the time next door... because I thought of that future more than anyone else.

"... don't want it, it's easy...!

My skull snapped mistletoe.

"My parents were dead. My fiancée's gone! What the hell can I show that guy......!?

"Me."

I smile.

Permeate a gentle smile that should not float roughly during battle.

"I'm in love with Jack. Go show me."

Bikiri and a crack ran on his skull.

"So get out of the way, corpse temper. People like you call it old age......!!

The crack covered the whole thing as I saw it, quickly gushing and turning the skull into a fragment.

At the same time, other parts are simultaneously crushed and scattered.

The countless shattered white bones were blown by the wind before falling to the ground - gathered at the foot of the rubble mountain to form the figure of one man.

Aaron Bruit.

Breathe roughly on your shoulders, there is blood and flesh, one human being.

"What's a corpse. What's a Philosophical Zombie"

And I looked down upon him from the mountain of rubble, with my knees upon the ground.

"Then where the hell does the despair you screamed come from? What the hell do you call nothingness and doings?

"Huh... ha"

The man laughs sarcastically.

"You're going to tell me that I have a heart without a soul, too. Makes it all look like..."

"It's not what I found out. I don't know if you have a heart. You're the only one who can see that, aren't you?

The man mumbled.

"Whether you have a soul or not, it's hard to tell if someone else's actions are real or fake. In the end… it is only whether or not we can believe the man who sees it"

I look on the other side.

Stand across Bill Street and see the castle of the Demon King.

I'm sure I'll wait in there, see my precious boy.

"So I will - restore that child's, believing heart"

As a master.

As a childhood friend.

And as a woman...

- Whatever, absolutely.

"............ ha. Ha, ha, ha………"

There was an empty laugh.

Aaron leaked as he leaned over. That looked a lot like Jack's now.

"Who gets in the way of someone else's love path, huh... Well, haha, he's no enemy..."

Looking up at the sky covered by a dark dome, Aaron slowly sits down on the ground.

"Stop, stop. Did the horse kick your ass? Hey.... I'll leave it to the two young men."

transferring his gaze from the sky to me, Aaron said.

"... I wonder why. I've thought about things like what you said many times over the last seven years... That's more of an opinion. And yet... somehow, I can't ignore it."

Oh, well, the grunt dropped.

"- I've never been preached before."

That soliloquy that ascended into the sky was jammed with Aaron Bruit's past.

To the words of things that should only be corpses - but his life lived there.

I sigh small.

"... I'm not your master."

"I know. At this age, I'm not going to be sweet on Sensei.... think for yourself. You're an adult."

I wondered if I had taken anything out of my coat, and it was a cigarette roll.

Put it in your mouth and light the fire with a match...

A small smoke slowly disappears into the dark sky.

"Go."

Aaron said as he looked up at the purple smoke.

"He's a lot worse than me, isn't he?

"I know. I like it, including there."

I got a cynical grin on my smoking mouth.

"You're hot. Do it out of sight."

◆◆◆―――――――◆◆◆―――――――◆◆◆

When I realized, I stood in front of a large door.

Dim stone ceilings if you look up. Tapestry on a wall that looks sturdy if you look around. Fine carpet if you look down.

[Labyrinth of Trials] Metastatic function on clearance….

Currently, Dimkuld is just before the war with the Kingdom of Lowe. Even Aaron sent me so I wouldn't make a scene in the tingling castle.

I stared at the great door that was in front of me.

I pictured one boy who was supposed to be over there.

I don't get lost.

My heart has already made up its mind.

When I walked over to the main door, I slowly pushed it open.
