The day after tomorrow.

It's about the day we leave Sardis here and travel to the Great Sea Plains.

In other words, tomorrow is the only time I can be free, and then there may be an inside story and a way of saying things, but if I were to have a secret meeting, I would only have a chance this night.

Before returning to the inn, I took a trip to another inn that I had set my sights on beforehand and set up my steps.

"Oh, welcome back. How was the discussion?

"I'm home. Once the meeting's over, isn't it about time we're entering World War II in the name of a get-together?

"Um, does Mr. Kai not have to attend?

"I think you'll be fine. The scene where I need to be is over. After that, it's everyone's problem living on this continent, and it's not going to get any closer to each other."

"Hmm, that's what it is. Then Shun hasn't come back yet, either. What do you say, Julia?"

"What shall we do? If Mr. Shun and the others aren't coming back, why don't we go out again?"

Back at the inn, Rhue and Reyce, and Julia, who had left the voicemail to greet us.

Julia wasn't irrelevant in this case, but she's a complete victim from the standpoint. Therefore, it was Shun's idea to avoid putting it in public and attracting everyone's attention any more, and both me and Falnir agreed on the form.

It should be noted that Shun himself, like Amami, is in the security of the meeting.

"If you're going out, I'm going out with you. I want to refill the ingredients. And I want to tell you both about the ship that Dahlia arranged."

"Oh, you've already arrived?

"We're leaving the day after tomorrow, so that's our time limit."

"Oh well... I thought I could play more with Julia because of you..."

"Right, I also wanted to go out more everywhere with Mr. Leue"

Lue cuddles happily to Julia's words. It looks like a sister who loves her completely.

but Reis, my main sister, is not... subtly jealous... I was looking at you two kind of smiling.

"Really, you're very similar, aren't you?

"Right. Her parents... I mean, they're like Rue and Rais to Shun, but I think the mother looked a little like Rue."

... or he should have created an elf woman character too, inspired by me making Rue. I guess there were some references.

"Well, if we haven't had lunch yet, we'll have lunch somewhere."

Things were going on in the city, but this meeting was widely passed on to the residents, and it also seemed that the number of people and the number of stores opened had increased significantly more than before, due to the relationship of many people coming from other territories.

Sounds like a little festive situation, this is it.

"I think it would be more interactive if we had these festivals around every year and held them in each territory..."

"Actually, I think it's a good idea, though there's some security and security issues."

"That's right... as far as I'm concerned, I'd love to have a festival where you can taste delicious things from all over the world at once."

"Ha ha, that might be good too"

As we spoke, Julia began to be interested in what place we had been and what kind of city we had seen.

She said she had only visited Brightness Arch and this city where she had been sealed.

From the freshness of it in the den, they saw a lot of places every day and walked.

"Right... at the beginning of the journey, was it a city called Salt Dish on the continent of Endoresia?

"Speaking of which, you never heard the details either. What kind of city was it?

"I care too. The legendary continent of Endoresia… the most powerful land where all demons have mighty power and where warriors are said to have a benign soul… how true is it?"

"... that's my first ear? Well, it's true... there have been cases of massive magicians and monster flooding."

Such a relaxing look around this guy's increased boulevard as he tells his old story.

Salt dish. I think you were still floating around a lot back then, me too.

Everything you see is fresh, culture and people are somewhere different from common sense you know, and every day is something you could not help but enjoy, something you spent your days thinking about.

The first time I took the inn. That I proposed to compete to make money.

That Lue had signed an exclusive agreement and that was why he fought as a big spectacle.

Talk about such a nostalgic episode.

"It was a turbulent start for you... Lue, were you in shape to attract trouble from then on...?

"Mmm? I was wondering if that would be my fault?

"Hehe, but that sounds like fun. So Mr. Caivon was admired by the Demons for a while."

"You will. Now I think that city had a lot more demons than any other city, but I guess it had something to do with having demon settlements on the north end of the continent."

"Yeah. The forest I was in was surrounded by mountains, and the only way out was the path leading to Salt Dish, but there were actually mountain paths in the mountains at the northern end, if not for the junction of the forest. If we go through there, there's a demon colony."

"Heh... now I want to go over there too"

She said it was a story of a demonic tribe that abandoned its engagement with other races in the war with the Dragon God, Genesis, but such people gradually traveled outside after many years.

Some of them sailed to the ocean and built a nation on the semi-final continent….

"True, there's been a lot..."

"Right..."

"Yeah, really. Even after you met me, there was a lot going on."

"Mr. Reyes wasn't with you from the beginning, was he?"

"Yes, I met Kai and Ryue on the semi-final continent."

If you were to name the most significant events in your journey, you would still have met Rais, as she said.

The moment I first met her, my heart pulsed hard and I took an interest in her with feelings totally close to being alone.

Now I think that might have been something like synchronization or resonance between characters.

But still, she thinks she's special.

Whatever it is, it's what I originally created as my ideal image. There's no way I'm unattracted.

"I'm sure I never would have gone with you on my own. But... because Kai noticed, because he pushed me on the back, because he took my hand, I was able to take a step forward."

"You can light it up when they say that again. Besides, I was able to take the last step, too, because Lue spoke to me."

"Huh? Did I say something?

Then, at some point, Lue, who was scooping the apple he had bought somewhere, was staring at this one.

No, no, no... I couldn't have fully understood Rayce's chest.

"Reis is waiting for someone. You're the one who made me realize that."

"Uh... yeah. Right, some kind of curse. I know exactly what it's like to be trapped in thoughts."

"Were you..."

Words once spoken by Lew.

'I'm waiting for someone. I'm sure I don't know who I am, but someone who might change me.'

With those words, I was able to take the courage to step into Lace.

And she chose the path to walk with us.

Even then there were the problems that tormented her and the tragedies that struck her, which were never a smooth sailing journey, but still she and we got over it and came to this continent.

"... really, after only six months, my life has changed dramatically. Every day is like a dream, so much fun..."

"Yeah, yeah. I feel the same way. I met a lot of people and made a lot of friends. You met Julia, didn't you?

"Hehe, right. Besides, I'm also, in a way, like Mr. Caivon was able to step into a new life thanks to his presence here. I really appreciate it."

"Ha, though that's also because Shun hasn't given up for hundreds of years. Truth is, he's a big guy. Julia, please stay with him."

"Yes, of course!

The laughter spreads naturally to Julia, who seems happy and cheerful to return.

... Shun, good for you. Things you once lost are still on your side after changing shape.

So don't imitate the unscrupulous again… don't imitate them away from your people.

Then, in response to Julia's request to try it out, we bought something called "Cream Dafu" from the stall that was coming from Mass Rabbit, and all four of us decided to go back to the inn after having repeatedly filled up our buying and eating while we were grateful for its high quality.

Then, just as Shun came back there, Julia quickly rushed over happy.

"You both look happy."

"Oh, really"

"Hehe, is that how we look from the side, too?

Then Shun, who came this way, told me what happened after that meeting.

Apparently, they never had that much conversation at the get-together, and they all stayed to report to each other on what was going on here in the realm these days.

So, you think Lee was quickly catching and talking to Noxheim's lord, Mr. Cowen?

Well, I also feel like most of the negotiations will work out for her.

"So, you said you pulled out early because it was time for you to open up."

"I've been working early in the morning. Well, this time I have a rash on my face. The raid was well anticipated."

"So, did you end up making any suspicious moves?

"There it is. There was a conspiracy between the extremists of Eldain and the Mass Rabbit, and some of the people here in Selyu."

"Whoa... that's not calm. What happened?"

Perhaps a party of Vio's brother-in-law, or some of my totally heartbroken hippo men, conspired with the people who were smoking here.

Seems like a lot of trouble, but why is this guy back here?

"Beeches fail. A man who was supposed to be the head slain in the middle of a decision rally. The people who feared were originally a group of gatherers. They're all tied up after aerial decomposition. There was no curtain for me."

"Was he... pre-sensing the information, Farnil?"

"No, this is the backdrop we were told later by the guards. Totally... I'm afraid not to her."

"She...?

"Perhaps there was a connection with the secret detectives in this country originally. Using that handout, he identified his home base in just half a day, stayed single and succeeded in the assassination, joining security with a few uneaten faces. I can't believe this kind of delicacy was in my country."

"Oh, come on, no way. That's..."

...... Amami. By the time you were having a conversation with me, was it after you came clean up one big job...

This is a souvenir for her. I have to show her the mood.

A little while later, Dahlia, one of the most important figures in this meeting, returned.

Dinner was supposed to be held, but I turned it down and came back.

Well, I originally promised to do that.

"Well... it's about time then"

The time is 6 pm. The sun is still high due to the seasons, but soon it will be around dusk.

Bring back Daria and Shun, and I'll do you a favor that's in Lue and Reyce and Julia.

"Only this evening, there's something the three of us need to talk about. I'm sorry, can I just be away tonight?

"Eh! Shouldn't I go with you? Even though Julia and Reis are here?

"Lue, I know how you feel, but we don't have much time left... and there are things we can't talk about without just the three of us, right?

"Mmm... is Julia okay? My favorite Shun will be taken away by Kai-kun, right?

"Well, if your favorite Mr. Shun has something important to talk about, I'll put up with it today because I can't help it. So let's put up with Mr. Rue, too."

"Shit... ok, I'll be patient then, I need a souvenir!

"Aye, leave it to me. I'm glad you said you loved it, Shun."

"... this is adorable. This emotion I've felt for a long time, I miss it, this is adorable..."

Oh, something's going on with my face back to you.

"I don't know your name. I never got all three of them inside. Just for tonight, I'll borrow it."

"Yes. Please be careful. There are a lot of people now."

"It's okay, Lace. Honestly... I don't think there's anything these three can do."

"Hehe, that's true"

Well, then perhaps the three of us won't be able to go out alone if we turn it up today, and let's say we get it all together in a while and roll it out to the city at night!

"In fact, when I walk like this, I feel nostalgic...... at the same time I feel sorry for you. I'm... I'm not a leech anymore"

"If you say that, it's like I threw away my original name, too. Caivon is my name now."

"As well to the right. People change things. I think I'm a lot different than I was before. You've even changed your gender, naturally, in a way?

"... that may be..."

"You're Dahlia. The Dahlia was born after enclosing the memory and experience of Hisashi. That's everything, and we're new friends. That's good, right?

Like that night.

Before we came to this world, we would wander around in this dusk, like a continuation of the night when the three of us got together.

I guess Dahlia feels the difference from that night more strongly than anyone else.

But it's good enough, it is. You are our friend and companion. That fact doesn't shake the dust either.

"... essentially nothing changes. It's going on that night. Remember that? We had a conversation after we had a drink together."

"... that's awesome. I think I told her I wanted another drink."

"Yeah, it sure is. He also wants to get together like this."

"Am I the only one who remembers exactly? Well, it's only two years or so in time, for me."

Soon, our beloved world will be served by Grandiaseed.

Talk about those memories, what to do with the destination, how to play on the last day, sloppily killing time with such a conversation of content that just hits the road, such a gathering.

In the end, we came to the conclusion that it was good as usual, and we cut the gathering up early and headed home to each other.

But then we...

"Will we get together again after the service?"

'Right. Now what are you going to eat? You don't know any good stores, you guys.'

'Don't expect that kind of gourmet information from us. Yoshiki, you're better at cooking than that, aren't you? Build something, you can use my room.'

'Oh, that's good. I've been eating your dinner for a long time. Then we'll have a drink at Shun's next time. "

Yes, that's what we said then: 'Now let's drink with my rice'.

So...... today is the continuation of that night. On the road so far, I prepared a meal at the camp, but that was only 'made by me' and not strictly 'my cooking'.

Uncondescending, elegant or nothing, just liquor dishes that I prefer and that we make to our liking.

I want to spend that night with you, pinching things like that.

"... yes, was it? You're losing a lot of memories."

"Not in your room, but I already have some cooking space this time. There we go, I'll make you anything."

"Hehe, I'm looking forward to that. I have so much to try."

"Let it go. Fortunately, this is a port town. I have most of my stuff. You can say what you like all over the Japanese Ocean."

The three of us go back and forth in an adorable way, showing the uplifting of appearance rather than being worthy of age......

Around, you can also see people walking floating like us here and there.

The three of us are creating another sight that we admired one day, with our memorabilia chest tightened.

That's what makes me so happy, so happy, so happy that my mouth is connected.

"... there was a lot going on, true"

My whining leading sucks into the dusk sky.

Keep going that night, again.

Perhaps one of the things I really wanted to accomplish was now fulfilled.

"Hey, do you even have an inn like this?"

"Oh. This place is more like a renter than an inn. Well, it means people with all sorts of circumstances can spend their time at ease, so it's better than any luxury inn."

"I see, it's certainly a great way to get together with patience. From what I've seen, the kitchen seems to be well equipped, and perhaps the guided aristocrats are holding secret meetings."

When it came to the lodging I had prepared, did the owner distract you, only the table and dishes had already been set up?

Well, I'm going to start cooking all the dishes, but the situation is that most dishes are easy to make thanks to the fact that the ingredients are stored after some down-treatment.

"So, what do you want to eat? You can make anything for yourself, in your current state."

"Don't get lost when you have to. You're leaving the day after tomorrow, aren't you? Then I'd like to eat something I can only eat right now."

"When that happens... is that the classic sushi? I'm not very good at it, but I can handle it."

"No, it's just sashimi and good. I mean, I rarely talk about sashimi myself. The current situation is that the amount of soy sauce distributed is low. Well, I'd like to strengthen my interaction with the semifinals so that this can be improved in time."

Head to the kitchen alone and get ready.

I see Shun is a sashimi. No hassle and great help.

And what, on the other hand, is Dahlia's request that she doesn't actually have the perception that she ate while having the memory of Hisashi?

I'm talking about this guy who's pretty relentlessly trying to come up with a bunch of orders, I kind of get up.

"I am... will you be drinking today? I want some delicious grilled fish."

"Well, that's surprising. What is grilled fish?"

"It's a delicious grilled fish, isn't it? Some of my memories showed that I was very impressed with just baked fish, and I'm sure some of them are awesome baked fish, right?

"I'm gonna hurdle you up...... well, wait a minute"

Really, there's no forgiveness.

But I want to drink something simple and delicious to the dishes, so I quickly took the head part out of the secret, Rayce's cherished pheasant.

"... because there are opposite sides of the camel, let's take a big look at one of them."

I'm sorry, Reis. Because I'll get tuna that's just as big later.

Quickly, I was going to finish the dish in a way that responded to my request.

"... delicious, what's this sashimi?

"That must have been a fish like a cuttlefish. Look, you messed up the ocean when you fought the seven-star Listeria, didn't you? I reclaimed it then, but it's summer and the fat's on it and it's good, huh?

"Sure this is...! Nice, this dark flavor...... nyamero? Was it"

"Let's get it over with, huh? It is a dish that is said to have originally been eaten by fishermen's humans. Sashimi is good, but I prefer this one."

"Sure this is in there too... I don't drink much but don't want this... it's been decades since I've had sake"

The three of us stir up the cup as we pinch the first dish.

Unfortunately, Oink's sake "bond" was already empty, but it was surprising that Dahlia had secured only one bottle.

After all, he was picking up sake.

"Oh...... I was watching something sweet called grilled fish. I can't believe you disappeared on my tongue..."

"Maybe Selew had lower water temperatures all year round due to the sealing. I don't think there were any residents who enjoyed a sea bath here or in the harbour town."

"I'm sorry to be serious, but this is a fish I caught on my way from the semifinals to this continent. Well, I think that might be a good idea."

"What! What, that's confusing... but delicious... tuna?

"No, he's one of Kaziki's people."

"Kaziki... Oh, you mean Gladys! The king of our country likes to catch that fish, he spends January every year out in the sea. I heard rumors about the wind that our fisherman caught the Lord of the Sea. A fish nose that's a testament to that? You know, giving away pointy areas like that."

"Oh, I know that story. You think they put it in the king's private room a while ago as a scrap? The merchant who gave it to me said it was more than three meters long."

Nah, I think I've heard that story somewhere.

Could this be about the rhinoceros that Reyes caught, or the fish we're eating right now?

Sure, it looks like the captain of the ship we boarded bought this rhinoceros kiss, a pointy-nosed part like a sword...

"Oh, it's gone. Caivon, can I order your next dish?

"Whoa, whatever."

"Next you can ask for grilled chicken, or if you can... with seven flavors and salt"

"I have a thing called Marbowdoff. Apparently it was my favorite."

"Daria...... how about suddenly asking for something of that different genre?

"No, we can do both right away. Shun, you don't have to shy away from one dish like that."

"Oh really... then I'm in China too... can you do Tianjin rice?

"Super spare. Then I'll make it."

It's fun, like this. I miss it, like this.

Only at this moment is the memory of when I was in Japan strongly and strongly remembered.

Many memories and bonds that had come to this world and severed it as truncated.

Trying to forget, unconsciously remembering something about my family.

All of them, vividly remembered, the illusions of the past repaint the sight now in this eye.

But - let's accept it. When you miss it, it's natural to remember it.

On this continent, I once threw it away, and it became a form of confrontation with what I thought I had thrown away.

It was something you shouldn't have thrown away. Get over it, it was something you should feed yourself.

Lue wasn't the only one. She was not the only one facing trials on this continent.

Again, it turned out to be a direct look at what I've been turning away from.

"... really, that was a journey you got a lot"

I whine about that as I wave the chinese pot.

At the end of his gaze, two friends drink while doing a little knob he took out of somewhere.

Really, I miss it. Nor did I honestly expect to see this sight.

"... our next goal is to have a big banquet with all of our teammates and Lues."

That's how we headed for the two of us with the finished dishes.

"Phew...... just full. No... haven't you ever been so satisfied, since you came to this world"

"Right...... I feel like I miss all of this and at the same time fresh...... thank you, Caivon"

"Oh, crude lady. No, it was a good night."

"... hey, you can live on this continent after your journey. You like that inside, don't you?

"Well, you're one of the candidates. Well, I can't even consider when the journey ends."

Sitting at the table, he leaves his sloppy head in his arms and speaks half-eyed.

I'm sleepy now. That's how much I shaved, talked, ate and drank.

Didn't I continue my journey so far just to have this relaxing moment? Enough time to think so.

I still can't imagine the end of my journey right now.

But I'm sure it's a lot of fun and I'm not going to get bored.

"... Me too, if Julia wanted to see the world, she might go on a journey"

"That's troublesome...... but that might be good too...... this country is now open. Even in the absence of the Virgin, this continent turns firmly. Heh, I'll be with you then."

"Ha, that's a good idea. Then you go for Endoresia. On the way to see Oink or to a hot spring town called Agidal..."

Dream stories that seem difficult to achieve also come out of my mouth when I think I can really do them.

Talk to each other with such a half-minded mind.

"... on the road, be careful, Caivon"

"Yeah, really. Your enemies... may be lurking at the root of the world."

"Oh...... right. But then I'm gonna need your help."

I've got company I can count on, here.

"Oh, I'm gonna go help you. Now I'm gonna save you..."

"Me too... must..."

I heard the words and let go of consciousness again.
