Even Posing as a Hero is Easy–Why? Cause I’m a God–

Kaika Beach in the port town of Dollar Earth.

A quiet cove surrounded by rocky skin in the shape of a C.

Under the starry sky at night, people were gathered on the beach.

Sitting on a laid sheet, drinking, eating, having a quiet conversation, waiting for the beginning.

Occasionally, the wind blew out of the sea and carried the scent of the tide.

A square stage made of trees floated near the arc-drawing sandy beach.

Our seats were led to the front of the stage the first time.

Sit on the seat and relax.

Meals made at the sea house behind the beach were carried.

Feed grilled like a half-fold of okonomiyaki, vegetable and mystery skewers, chicken teriyaki, fried shellfish butter skewers, and then liquor and juice.

Megna was bringing miso roasted rice balls from the house.

The sugar soy sauce is fragrant and the meat and shellfish are soft. Chewing it floods with gravy.

It was common with grilled rice balls.

Two shadows came in from the entrance to the cove some time later.

A mermaid who moves and swims the tail in a supple manner.

The sandy beach thrills with surprise and bewilderment.

When the two mermaids took to the stage, they proceeded to swim in the air.

The man's hoodie sits with an instrument in the chair behind the stage.

Aria walked into the center of the stage and bowed down. Luxurious limbs with only a breastplate and paleo skirt. Water droplets glow on white skin.

I said hello when I sat in the chair.

"Nice to meet you, gentlemen. Atashi is an aria of mermaids. I'm so glad you're gathered at the song party like this. Have fun today. Then I'll just sing. It's Parker who accompanies you."

To introduce Aria, hoodie with her head down.

And quietly, start playing strings similar to the guitar.

The sound sounds higher than the guitar. Is it close to Mandolin?

It engraves a strange rhythm.

Aria sings softly. Clear and transparent voice.

"Ru ~, la ~, la ~"

and emit meaningless sounds. I wonder if my voice volume has increased, and it gets thinner again.

I was a little worried that the rhythm would not be constant at first.

However, it was a reassuring sound and singing voice.

The song played by Aria and Parker resembled something.

It was like a wave.

When I thought so, I took a lot of breath.

It is in tune with the sound of a wave that returns when you come to the beach.

So can you be relieved that the rhythm is not constant?

It was said to be a unique way to play mermaids close to the water.

Zazza...... Aria's voice spreads to match the waves that strike at her.

And I'm going to retreat.

It was just a voice when I realized it, but it was a word.

A lover who traveled far away from the sea, keeps waiting for his return and wishes his lover well in the sea, an indefinite song.

I am drawn to beautiful singing with magic.

The other guests on the beach were also quiet. There are even customers who have stopped moving with their skewers in their mouths.

At the end, it disappeared quietly so that the ice could be broken.

The guests were drunk by the song. Not really, but I hadn't noticed it for a while.

Gradually, applause arose from the people who returned to me, and the cove became noisy all at once.

Aria gently introduced the current song and sang it out again.

Songs honoring the sea, songs honoring nature, songs about tasty fish, songs about the sadness of brave men and mermaids were performed.

People get enthusiastic about singing.

Nobody just opens their mouth while the performance goes on. He looks at Aria on stage like she eats in and leaves herself in a beautiful voice.

People weren't the only ones fascinated by the song.

After a while, phosphorescence began to gather around Aria.

"Is that the Spirit?

Spirits of blue water, spirits of red fire, spirits of green trees, etc.

Different spirits flew and colored the stage gorgeously.

Beautifully illuminated Aria's face with a smile and serious singing.

A groaning exclamation leaked out of people's mouths at the beauty of so mysterious.

Big applause after the song.

Aria talked for a while about the narrative of the song, the reality of the sea, and also about the real ecology of mermaids.

Also about immortality and cooking.

"You're all wrong, but eating mermaids won't keep you alive long. But, you know, traditional mermaid food is amazing. It's delicious, and I can live longer. I think that probably passed it on wrong. So don't eat mermaids. Huh? Because cooking is a secret of mermaids, you can't feed them if you get paid. - I'll only feed the people we get along with."

People who deliberately discuss it.

Aria laughed like a prankster, but immediately went back to her serious face and said:

"Then I'll go on and sing through five songs. It's a song that conveys memories of the sea that humans don't know."

Parker scratches the strings and plays a stormy melody.

Aria freely uses low to high voices to convey her image.

First of all, it was a ferocious silo bear song. Next up is a wise shellfish song.

And a stupid human de song. Terrible whale song. It went on with the honest squid song.

When the squid song was over, Luna, who was beside him, turned her eyes bright red, but was weeping.

I didn't realize it at first, but around Hitode, I realized it was a song honoring the former ruler of the ocean.

says Aria after singing.

"Today has been a great day. Atashi is delighted that this will be the first commemorative day that the mermaids have been able to perform their songs in front of the humans, and that they will be able to pass on their newborn songs as they are today - so we will sing."

Parker used only one string and played a weak melody.

Aria sings softly. The spirits fly with brightness.

This is what the song was about.

A newborn little kid. Weak and unable to do anything, he still didn't give up and asked for love and truth.

Gradually, the sea stands up violently and roughly, making it very difficult to get what you want.

Still, I ate my teeth and tied them up and moved on.

It becomes a magnificent song.

It was a very brave jellyfish song.

A song honoring the ruler of the ocean born today.

Aria watched Luna smile all the time while she sang. Put your heartfelt praise on the singing.

'I know Mermaid Island. Your hard work, your courage and your health. The sea wraps it all up'

Luna was crying.

"I've always thought I'd be alone... but I'm just glad someone knows what I've been up to... I thought I should"

"Right. That's all you did. You can be better known. But Luna's story has just begun. We're going to continue."

"That's right. Good luck with that."

The song honoring Luna is over.

Aria bowed to Luna.

"Well, ladies and gentlemen. It came a lot deeper at night. I'd like to end today's show with the next song."

"" "Yeah!

How noisy were the guests who were fascinated by the song and had forgotten their time.

Aria said after laughing.

"I owe it all to the brave man to have a place like this today. - I'd like to answer your request for the last song."

No one disputed this.

You seem to have a proper heart to honor the brave, more importantly.

Aria looks at me and asks.

"- What kind of song would you like to hear? Shall we make a song to honor the work of the brave?"

I'll think about it for a second and then I'll say it.

"comfort those who died in the sea, ask for a soul song, like a Requiem"

"... I accept, brave man"

Luna pulled the sleeve of her Japanese clothes and whispered.

"Yusha...... thanks"

"Nothing. That's about it."

Aria looked back at Parker and spoke in a low voice, adding gestures for a light meeting.

And Parker started playing with a tannic, serious face.

Holy and harsh sound played from strings.

Singing is like a solemn hymn.

It purifies people's minds.

As the Spirit wraps Aria, Aria's singing voice shines more and more.

- If the undead hears about this, they have the magic to ascend.

With that in mind, I prayed for the peace of those scattered in the sea.

Luna prayed hand in hand in front of her chest.

"Thank you, Auntie. Sleep in peace. We don't have to worry about you anymore."

Then the sea shone.

Several lights rise from sea level to night sky.

One unfloated soul after another wandered into the river.

- A demon soul?

From the harbor a great glow rose. A big light of honesty and bravery.

Luna squeaks as she sees the rising glow.

"-Oh, I love you."

The whispering thoughts were carried in the wind to the night sky.

Even after the Requiem and the light went out, the aftertaste of Sazana continued to linger forever.

Looking at the side, Luna wasn't crying anymore.

The sunny sides were riddled and beautifully tightened.

Aria concluded her thanksgiving and closed the meeting.

Let yourself leap into the sea.

Chip, and the water sounded, ripples spreading across the sea surface.

There seems to be no habit of encore, and people go back on their way back to town with magical lights.

He praised the mermaid's singing and verbally honored the song because of the brave man.

As we walked out, Celica held hands quietly.

He was smiling but moisturizing his blue eyes when he saw it. He was impressed with a lot of things.

Shake that hand back vigorously.

I was comfortable on a fall night when my soft body temperature felt chilly.

◇ ◇ ◇

And it would have been a nice night if I'd finished here.

When he returned to Kaika House to use the fairy door, Aria approached him to twist his tail and swim in the air at the chandelier's falling glorious entrance.

"Look, look, Mr. Kaika! It's the first money I've ever made!

I've been showing you big gold coins because I'm shabby.

A different, girly attitude than before.

I was immersed in a mysterious aftertaste but with all the smashing, I accidentally laugh bitterly.

But I didn't like it. Heart warms.

And even the gold coins we were used to seeing were special money for her.

- No, it could be special for mermaids.

I said as I stroked her hair.

"Well done. Lovely bunch of songs, thanks"

"Huh. I had a lot of first-time customers, and I got nervous. But I had fun too!

Aria laughs in the light of soldering.

Luna gives thanks as she rocks her red tentacles.

"I was impressed, too. And for you, thank you."

"Yeah. All I can do is sing...... Congratulations Luna, Ocean Ruler. - It's a discretionary statement, but the mermaids didn't hate you guys. So come visit me on Mermaid Island."

"I know. It's the island you tried to protect. I got it."

Aria reached out. Luna hesitated for only a moment before grabbing that hand.

They stare at each other like friends and smile.

The hand I shook was hard to leave.
