As soon as I knocked, she welcomed me.
Her room is a different quality than a room, just a work desk, a stationery, and a simple bed.
In doing so, she recommended to this side of the bed and herself sat down to the bed.
"Well, what shall we talk from"
"First of all, let's hide that you're a demon."
"Actually, that's not a big reason. Actually, I'm a Genesis person."
"I had a thin feeling about that. And you're hiding from someone, too."
When I answer that, she's not particularly surprised by the wind, she just closes her eyes.
"That's just great. Sure, I'm hiding from people who know me back in the day. My former lord is looking for me."
"That's also involved in recent incidents in this city, isn't it?
"Yeah. Probably blackmail me for not listening. It also seems to be working for some of the leading players."
"Mr. Takiya, right? Mr. Reyes noticed that, too."
"Yes."
But you probably haven't noticed they're after you from the outside.
If that's the case, this guy wouldn't have used me as an escort.
"I know my daughters, and hence the city, are being bothered because of my presence. But to put the kids away and run away somewhere..."
"They're strong. Especially the elf woman, whose name is certain -"
"" Spelling, "right? That kid did tell me to lump everyone up instead in case anything happened to me. But minus that, I..."
"You can't just run away somewhere. Because if you run away, you won't find yourself."
Poke clearly so as to block the words.
Now it's time for her to distort her expression in amazement and lay her eyes down somewhere sad.
"You're looking forward to everything... yes, I'm waiting for someone to know me"
"Can't we hear more about that story?
"... right. I may have had limits somewhere, too. 'Cause this is how they finally stepped in."
Her face, laughing in mockery, is so smug that I don't think she's the same person who said she would protect her daughters that day, and she gives me guilt.
"I remember before Genesis. I don't remember clearly, but I was taken care of by someone."
"Remember, no?
"Someone gave me clothes. Someone gave me something to do for me one day. I remember the people around me praising me for wearing it, and I was happy."
Oh... oh... did I?
"Someone gave me a nice accessory. I can't use it anymore, but I have something like a warehouse where things arrive."
It's about shared storage.
I was putting in the items I got.
Though I created "Lace," I didn't even raise her to Locke, I was just playing like a dressing doll.
Inevitably, then, less time was spent manipulating her, and consequently her memories, which took over the memory of the game age, become rare objects.
I guess Rhue kept his memory because he ran long as a second and had a lot of time connecting with people.
And she, on the contrary, has had extremely short playing times and therefore few memories, without knowing who she is, either.
That's why I asked for a connection.
"I can't take things out of that warehouse anymore. And when I realized I was on this continent."
"If I were that waiter, would you ever come with me?
If you still can make it.
"Heh heh, I'll be here, no matter who comes. Thank you, Mr. Caivon."
"Huh!"
The moment she told him so, a flirtatious expression lurked the ringing, and she hid the bottom of her heart again.
I couldn't know what I meant.
Even if I try my glasses on as a last resort, it's only the status that will be reflected.
It's just that she's the only thing that makes me look familiar.
Purple blue hair and wine red eyes, and small feathers that grow through the hair.
I don't have something to know her true intentions.
I don't have the means to prove that I'm the other guy.
I can't 'take' her.
I am the Swordsman. There must be no such thing as cannot be taken away.
Anything? Something...
"Well, today's business begins. How are you this evening? If you don't mind, I'll take care of you."
That appearance, which was already frivolous and likely to collapse from her, disappeared and the breakthrough was hidden.
The usual sales smile, like covering up that breakthrough.
Did I miss the perfect opportunity?
"Mr. Reyes, I..."
It was then.
A familiar, but nostalgic sound rings in the back of my brain.
That's an e-mail ringtone that's not supposed to arrive.
The Receive Email button that touched the play this morning was still in motion to update all the time.
It's like a cell phone looking for radio waves all the time.
The number of emails received exceeds 1000.
Was it because the sender was on your side that you received it?
All the senders' names were 'Reis'.
"What's wrong?
She turns a strange face at me for being abruptly silent.
Behind that look, what the hell do you feel and think?
I can finally get to know one end of it.
View the dates in her recent emails.
That's just from the day I came to this city to today.
I don't know why an unset email arrived at me.
Maybe it's just because I was nearby and my email inbox was being updated by chance.
I just wanted to believe the word 'destiny' because it's a cheap word, but not worthy of age.
The letters in the email didn't seem to have been typed in from the menu screen, like I did, but were written once materialized and then autographed.
"Today is another day for Mr. Book to visit"
'I think I wrote before, but he made this city for me'
"If you don't find me soon, I might be taken by a pretty boy who asks me to come for years, right?
"So please come and pick me up soon"
And to the newest, today was exactly what I was visiting.
"I've taken advantage of another man."
"And unforgivably, I became familiar with him for some reason."
"Will you forgive me like that?
"I'm going to reveal a little bit about me to that man today."
But I will always wait for you.
"Please come and pick me up when you read this letter"
'The man was a very attractive man, within which I could not shake...'
My mind has decided.
And I found out my heart.
Then we have to take action now.
"Mr. Reyes, you have a profession, don't you?"
I accidentally cut it out like this.
"What's wrong with you?
"I am what I call a swordsman. I specialize in taking it away."
"Well... there's one for me too -"
"'Demon Archer', right? I've got it ready to be equipped one day, but it's too capable to be equipped to demand it."
Thanks to my glasses I could remember.
I can clearly recall her now, as if it had been Kasumi.
I'm sure this is no coincidence.
"Huh?"
"'Demon Bow Bloody Rain' was the strongest bow I've ever found. I thought I'd have to train to use it someday."
Reyce has been waiting.
There must have been a chance to go outside and a few hands to reach out.
Still, I've just been waiting.
I'm sure one day I'll know who I am. I can be sure that I have the only connection, that the Lord of Gifts will come and pick me up.
"It seemed like a long time before the letter arrived. Complain to the delivery guy."
"... it's a lie, is it some kind of joke? 'Cause that's..."
Immediately open the menu and type in the reply to the email.
Just one word: 'I'm sorry I kept you waiting'.
The moment she pressed send, she shook her shoulder for a moment, surprised by the ringtone she would hear for the first time in her life.
And the next moment, she sits up to collapse from her knees.
Hey, it's not too late for that.
Me, I came here later than everyone else.
Still, can we 'take' you from this city now?
And will you forgive me? That I left you alone all the time.
I didn't even raise them, I just gave them items, and I almost left them alone.
"... really? Are you really my Uncle Foot Length?
"Your legs, they're long...? I'm not old enough to be an uncle... maybe not yet, but it's me."
"I wasn't forgotten... really"
"I always thought it might be you. That's why I stayed in this city to find out."
"... Really?"
Get down on your knees and talk to her gaze.
It wasn't the voice that raised it, but it was still spilling out of her eyes so much that she was likely to hear loud Shizuku mellow.
And he hugs me like a cuddle.
"I've been waiting for this day. It's just that I've been waiting for you, believing you'd pick me up one day."
Her status contained information I didn't know about.
She also had a last name, and that title.
[NAME] Rais Rest
[Race] Top Demon Race (Demon Road)
[Occupation] Demon Archer Regenerator
[Level] 97
[Title] Maiden of Promise (Promise Maiden)
Great Mother.
Empress
That was enough to speculate on how harsh the path she had taken was.
How much misery has there been in surviving even in this world and 'staying so' to this day with a woman?
"I ask again. Why don't you join me on the journey? Some buddies are a little crazy, but I'm sure we'll get along."
"Mr. Leue, right? If I don't follow you, please don't."
"If there's anything I can do to help you get out of this city, please tell me."
"It's okay, I'll clean it all up"
This time, she nodded at me.
You can't leave this city right now.
Still, she ran out of words to try and figure it out on her own.
Then I'll believe it and wait.
Besides, there's still one thing left for me.
Big job, talking to "A Little Weird Partner".
