Two hours after finishing the look.

Blade and Kukri had completed a minimum travel schedule.

When we heard there was a gift from the Empress, we took to the royal castle stables.

There are a selection of famous horses among the military horses.

It is said to be used by royalty and superior nobility.

▽*+*+:*+*+:*+*+:*+*+:▽

[◆ Rider No. 28]

'This is a famous horse.

I was just saying the G1 race paddock is also a jerk. '

[No name even if reincarnated]

"If you're going to break through the Demon King's army's sphere of power, you'd better run through it with a horse.

In the end, you might have been right to solve all the problems and get the Empress's help. "

△*+*+:*+*+:*+*+:*+*+:△

The Empress's servant brought us to the back of the stables, in front of a bare iron cage.

Inside the cage was a very huge horse with six legs.

"The Divine Horse Slape Neil was considered the ride of numerous heroes during the era of Hero Tan.

This horse is seen as its ancestral return.

Faster than any horse, boasts an endless stamina, but with a rough temper, no one can ride it. "

"Superior.

The animals need to have enough temperament to pick someone. "

Upbeat Blade seems to have fallen in love with the tough horse's body at first glance.

When the cage is unlocked, the horse tries to run all the way out here, but Blade can hold his neck.

"Good horsepower.

He's a rider. "

The horse trembles its giant trying to shake Blade off.

The leg to shoulder is nearly three meters tall and the neck and legs are more than twice the length of a normal horse.

"Ha ha! First of all, that's awesome!

That being said, Blade slapped his fist between the horse's eyes and his eyes.

Then the horse suddenly quieted down and urged him to sit back and get on Blade's back.

"Blade Niki is becoming more and more of an end-of-century champion"

[No name even if reincarnated]

But we don't forget.

When Lexie treated me like something crude and I was heartbroken. '

△*+*+:*+*+:*+*+:*+*+:△

"Well. Now it's really time to say goodbye.

I did what I had to do, and you guys got where you had to get to.

This journey has been a spectacular one. "

Blade said that in the face of me and Merliah.

"Approximately two months after I left Darris.

It's been a long time. "

Kukuri accompanies Blade as usual.

"Mr. Blade, Mr. Kukri...

Thank you so much.

And... I'm sorry.

That I've been fooling you all my life...

I think it's unacceptable. "

Meliá holds her fist so that she can reveal herself, and she is standing still.

"Really.

I tried to protect you with my life, but when I found out I was used, I left you.

That hurt. "

Blade approaches Merliah's ear and throws words at her.

"Ma, fine.

I used you to get here, too.

They're like each other there.

Sauen's man doesn't care what's past him. "

That's what Blade says, making Meliá's head an eagle.

"But. Except for Cruz.

He just wanted to protect Temeer. What a simple thought, he kept putting himself up.

Nevertheless, he betrayed the thought and ran away.

Even that fat man was relieved of Lord Farkas and washed away.

So Temeye is an asshole.

He's an incompetent asshole who understands nothing about the guy who thinks Temeer, or Temeer's own worth. "

Melia began to weep with potpourri.

Blade sighs and smiles.

"It's your life you live.

Learn and think and live for yourself, not give in to the thoughts of others. "

That's what I said, I let go of my hand, and I snapped my head off Pessili.

Kukuri approaches the painful Meliá next.

"Merliah...... no, Lord Almeria.

Congratulations on your return.

I enjoyed traveling with you.

Because this was the first time I had a girlfriend who was close to my age. "

"Mr. Kukri..."

Melia deposits her head on Kukri's chest.

"I'll see you again sometime.

Be the prime minister of the empire then. "

Kukuri is grinning and stroking Merliah's head.

Blade turned his back on me. [M]

"... bye"

"Oh."

The words you exchanged must have been in your head.

For me and for Blade.

But I don't think we need to put all that into words.

What Blade did to me, what he thought for me, what he was mad at me for replacing me.

Because I understand everything.

This journey has grown me as a homunculus equipped with thoughts and emotions that are infinitely closer to man.

If it was Melia who inspired me to do that, I think it was Blade who was most affected.

Live with emotions, stretch thoughts, and pierce the will to accomplish ends.

Blade was the most human to me.

And he recognized me and leaned on my emotions.

That shouldn't be an exaggeration to say you have a preference.

I'm glad.

I turned my hand around Blade's back and stuck my chest and chest together.

And

"Thanks"

and shrugged, clinging his lips to his cheek.

▽*+*+:*+*+:*+*+:*+*+:▽

[No name even if reincarnated]

"Endaaaaaaaaa!!

Blade or something!

[◆ Ozigi Sou]

"It's obvious ~"

△*+*+:*+*+:*+*+:*+*+:△

Is licking an act of confirmation of affection?

At least Blade hasn't hit me.

▽*+*+:*+*+:*+*+:*+*+:▽

[No name even if reincarnated]

"Ahh!"

[No name even if reincarnated]

"Blade Niki... Not even full?

[◆ Mario]

"Are you all right? Have you seen me with Kukuri's eyes that he's about to kill?

△*+*+:*+*+:*+*+:*+*+:△

It's okay...... I think so.

I'm laughing while I'm surprised.

With Melia.

"You really... you're just amazing at me"

Blade laughs bitterly.

And he's hugged my back full of strength.

"I am grateful that you told the Empress to hold me.

Now I can stay here. "

"You won.

I just ate. "

We let go and stared at each other.

There's something glowing in Blade's eyes, too.

"These are the times. But don't die.

I want to live until you and I are jittery. "

I replied, reluctantly. [M]

I'm sure Blade would be angry if he found out you lied.

But still, I can't tell you the truth.

Speaking of which, it destroys the future he draws.

I'm afraid of that, I am.

"I'll see you around. My friend."

Blade and Kukri rode a giant black horse, leaving Empire City behind.

I dropped them off. Me and Merliah were walking shoulder to shoulder along the aisle of the walls surrounding the city.

"You're all gone"

"Oh."

Farkas is back in Lyzerbesse, and the Iscarios are working quickly to prepare for the Eisenburg offensive.

Under the watchful eye of the Empress's Kingsguard, Lexie will take steps to cancel any information leading to the Empress or break her engagement with Iscarios.

And we are ordered to wait in the Imperial capital until the Empress summons us soon.

"Why did you stay?

Mr. Blade must have asked me to come home with you. "

I answer Merliah's question unstoppably.

"Because I wanted to be here."

Merliah is not convinced by my answer. [M]

▽*+*+:*+*+:*+*+:*+*+:▽

[No name even if reincarnated]

'Naturally. I don't have enough words.

[◆ Ozigi Sou]

'There are times when you don't need words and when you have to exhaust them.

A hundred par when you tell a girl what you think. "

◆ Works with

Good luck.

△*+*+:*+*+:*+*+:*+*+:△

Oh, okay.

"At first, I thought escorting you on your journey to the Imperial City would protect you.

But during his journey, he learned that there were dangers not only by the Demon King's Army, but also by various, forces that could not be solved alone.

Merliah will continue to fight it. "

There is no place in the world where you can enjoy living in peace.

If there are any people, the tears will wake up.

People are too weak to live where there are no people.

"You offered me a way of life.

The way of life of joining a single Falcus.

I'm sure it's a good thing, but I want to choose another way of life. "

A cloud that covered the sun poured into the wind, and the light fell like a waterfall on the walls of the castle.

Meliá's golden hair shines in light, and the outlines of her white skin flutter and blend into light.

We stopped and looked into each other's eyes.

"Merliah, I want you to protect me.

I want to be a shield for everything that hurts you.

If, when hurt, I want to be a place where I can escape.

That's what I want to live for. "

Tears seeped into Meliá's eyes.

He keeps tears from spilling by turning his face up or closing his eyelids repeatedly.

"No... it's not a good thing.

Mr. Cruz knows I'm like a fake personality I created for an undercover investigation...

The truth is that I have no love, no emotion, no apathy...

I'm not the kind of person you can stand up to and protect... "

"It doesn't matter. It's up to me to decide.

Besides, you're sure to change.

That's what humans are for. "

Lexie was changed by Falcus' fake love.

If so, it shouldn't be something we can't both do.

Even if it doesn't change, I'm sure I'm still with Merliah...

"Until then, when this life runs out.

I want to be by your side. "

If I were to describe the reason for this emotion in a language I know...

"Melia, I love you."

I cultivate this emotion, to convey this word… I guess I've lived to this day.

Sprinkling grains of sparkling tears, Meliá jumped into my chest.

The "now" ends and the "now" begins.
