Tomohiro Yasuwa was awake in bed.
There are only me and Ceras in the room right now.
I'm hiding my face in the Tsubaki King costume.
Meanwhile, Cyrus is dressed as usual.
She had a bare face and a sword.
I had the Centaurs who were taking care of me removed.
With a voice distorted by stones, I speak politely.
“I'd like to talk to you a little bit now. But with that restraint in place, conversation is difficult... so I'm going to take it off, but I want you to promise that you won't harm us."
Ann is not restrained by her limbs.
As soon as the restraint is removed, the skill will be available for use.
"I'm sorry." We must be vigilant. In this battle...... there was one incident in which the opponent who came into contact with me in a friendly atmosphere was caught up in a conspiracy and put into crisis. That's why I'm being cowardly... if you'll excuse me, could you give me a nod? "
Kokuri, nodding cheaply.
I didn't see anything lost.
Incidentally, since it is not a word, the authenticity of the cerus cannot be judged.
But as far as I'm concerned, I wanted to see the reaction to the question.
"Thank you. Now, let's remove the restraint."
Cyrus removes the restraint.
I'm always ready to use my abnormal skills.
Cerus puts the restraint on the side of the table.
Meanwhile, Yasu was quiet.
... you really look like someone else.
I told you.
"I know exactly how you were like that. I heard from the Sixth Cavalry."
* Giggle, giggle *.
Yan's shoulder jumped up for a moment.
He responded to the name of the Sixth Cavalry.
"Rest assured, the Sixth Cavalry has been destroyed by us."
Cheap eyes widen wide.
It was a face that was pierced with voidness.
An raised his head,
"Huh? That Sixth Cavalry... is that Jondu...?"
His voice was terribly low and crackling.
Probably because he hadn't spoken for a while.
"It was a tough opponent, but that man is no longer in the world." The Sixth Cavalry... all those who were on this battlefield have been dealt with. "
An once again lowered her gaze and said powerlessly.
"... I see."
The Sixth Cavalry had left her in such a state.
Normally, there's something you should think about.
However, the reaction of Yasuo was a good one.
"I'm glad you're dead, damn it."
I don't think that's the kind of emotion you can get.
I just feel like I'm accepting the facts as facts.
“You hate them, don't you?”
An asked herself how she was doing,
"... I may have been betrayed for a while." But... there's too much time to think. Um... this is embarrassing, but by the time I got to this battlefield, "I deserved this"... so I was starting to think, "
An continues to do so with self-consideration and self-punishment.
"Before I was captured by the Sixth Cavalry, I was... a pile of arrogance." Even though it's the power of a loan from the goddess, it's like I've become a special and amazing person... that's how I feel. I'm soaring like an idiot... Only my mind grew bigger... and when I realized it, I couldn't see anything. Now I've even lost sight of myself... noo... "
With a thin, slim face, Ann stares at her hand with a broken tendon.
"Before I came to this world, I must have... seen nothing." Ever since I've been here... I've only been a kid who's been so prestigious with borrowed money. I think we've gotten worse... and worse. "
…………
It has changed.
It's so strange that you can't see it.
As I said earlier, after all...
Because I had too much time to think on my own.
"Of course, I was surprised that the captain was defeated... but I was surprised that the Sixth Cavalry had been eliminated..." "Oh yeah, that's right..." I didn't get any more emotions than that... "
You know, face me from your own hand.
"What am I going to do now?" Are you going to be put on trial... and executed? "
I'll put a beat on it.
If so, is it acceptable?
"... I have to accept it..." It's just that-- "
I'll wait for the cheap words.
"... if it were to come true, there would be myself who just wanted to live a little longer..."
Are you willing to live?
"Is there a reason you want to live?"
"... there are people I want to apologize to,"
…………
"Other worldly heroes... classmates... especially Aya... No, Tenkawa-san." That person... that person, that person... "
With hands shaped like a prayer, Yasuo stuck his forehead.
"Such a me... even though you cared so much about me...!" And yet, I was... relying on me... about my classmates... and I just... giggled... and... whenever Tenkawa-san was in that state... think about everyone... even me like that... "
It's cheap to spit out your regrets in a monologue.
Anne was... crying.
Both me and Cyrus silently waited for the next word.
By the time she calmed down a little, Yasuo spoke again.
"... the deaths of Sakuma-kun and Hirooka-kun might have been saved if I had been more attentive." In that sense, it's like I killed you... ghh... so I can't apologize to those two anymore... "
Sakuma.
Hirooka.
Was he dead?
After defeating Eingrantz, I spoke to Ten Rivers.
At that time, I heard about the death of Kiriya Kumi of the Kirihara Group.
But I didn't know the two were dead.
Well, there is no reason for the Ten Rivers to tell the "King of the Tsubaki" about the two deaths.
... I wonder if anyone else is dead.
"Mimori-"
Take great care not to react to the (...) name (...) of the (...).
I told Cyrus beforehand, so it would be fine.
There is a chance that Ann will name me.
"Mimori-kun, yes... I can't apologize anymore"
After drooping and slightly silent, An,
"That Mimori-kun classmate... used to reach out to me when I was in the previous world. But at that time, my pride was high... I mean... back then, I... I... I..."
Gyuuu, it's cheap to close your eyes like you have courage.
"I wanted to be on the side of reaching out to someone... not on the side of reaching out... but all the time, all the time... even after I came to this world... but somewhere, I went crazy... and I got more and more drunk with an almighty feeling that I could not compare to when I was in the original world..."
I see.
In the matter of the Sixth Cavalry,
"I'm sober."
That's why.
... so.
You remember me, too.
You said you wanted to apologize, didn't you?
"... yes, yes"
"In other words, if you are forgiven and freed, you will return to the brave - to the Alion?"
"--What do you think?"
I turned my eyes away.
It would not be easy to say.
"It seems that the goddess was going to finish me off... I'm actually still alive, and even if I go back to this... I don't feel like it would be a very good result"
“I think you're right. But the other Heroes of the Otherworld---" Kurasemei "would like to rendezvous with them again if possible?"
"... yes, but that..."
There's still something there.
Wait for the next word.
To tell you the truth, I still feel messy
Is that it?
"I don't know what kind of face to meet... I still say that I've lost my sight of...... and......"
Yan An lowered his gaze and continued in a calm tone.
"If I could just take a little look around this world... how could I?" I was thinking about that... "
I'm going to take a look around, right?
Somewhat,
"Before I was embarrassed... I thought that people in this world were only mobbing -- that is, a large number of them. He admired himself, the chosen hero, and affirmed everything... I thought people in this world were just that kind of people. In the true sense, I probably didn't properly recognize that I was" alive "....."
You're the one--you 're the only one who's chosen.
A world for yourself.
A world where only you want to be.
Is that how it looked to Yasuhiro?
"So, um... what kind of faces do people in this world have, how do they feel... how do they feel living... I want to know others as well as I do myself right now... but it might sound like a weird story."
…………
I see.
The point is that I want to meet the Ten Rivers after doing the so-called "search for myself".
"Find Yourself"
It seems that it was popular a long time ago and is now completely obsolete.
It was an unknown word, so I looked up the transition on the Internet when it happened.
"Looking for the real you doesn't exist."
"I'm just drunk on myself."
"I don't like people looking for themselves."
I'm just running away from a hard reality.
"If you have time to look for something that doesn't mean anything to you, study or work."
I was bewildered with words like that, and it seems that no one but the spoiler has spoken.
It's just -- this is another world.
So if you can convince me and get my feelings sorted out.
If you want to move on.
Well, maybe it's okay.
"I... want to make it up to everyone if I can apologize properly." I don't think it would be easy to bury Mimori-kun, Sakuma-kun, and Hirooka-kun's life... considering what they've done to themselves. "
"Do you feel responsible for the death of the person named Mimori?"
"If you say that in that situation... everyone is having a hard time. That's why death is confirmed in despair - ah, but....."
Just a little bit.
An loosened her mouth.
"Mimori-kun, before you were sent to the abandoned ruins... I showed the goddess my middle finger." "Remember"... that situation... that was just as cool... as Tenkawa-san... "
An leaned down and dropped her shoulder.
"I think what was inside me was... jealousy of Mimori-kun and Tenkawa-san in the complex--no, not just those two." I don't want to admit myself to being short compared to many people... so I want someone to admit that I'm strong... I'm amazing... and still..... "
I gazed at my palms again.
"I'm letting my feelings out... and I'm trying to forgive myself. I really don't like myself like that. But that's why... I swallowed it myself..."
A cheap way to raise your face.
Staring straight at me,
"Just a little bit -- I want to like myself." I want to apologize to everyone when I get to like it. And--I want to help someone. "
…………
Who the hell is this?
I know - not Yasuhiro.
However, at the same time, I felt that I was able to match the answers.
A person named Yasushihiro who thought vaguely that this was the case.
That's true, I feel it too.
... in a sense, it's a typical type of character.
I don't know.
If you're not going to apologize... one of us is alive and well.
The skin is peeling off.
Previously on An Jihiro, the plating was poisonous.
It seemed like the Sixth Cavalry and the Sixth Cavalry had worked.
... a rough cure.
I see, I see how you feel.
Well, I know what I'm talking about.
I know how it feels.
I made a technique to think of.
"Yes, that's right... now, let's talk to the people of the most exhausted country from the side of Watashi." so that you can move things forward in the direction you want them to be. ”
"! I'm in a... trial..."
“Fortunately, some of you may be willing to take the battle, but it seems that Watashi is the most accomplished person who led this battle to victory. I wonder if we can avoid such disturbing directions by calling the people above this country."
In fact, there was no such thing as a trial or execution.
As it stands, I'm in charge.
So this is just a rush.
"Well, it's hard to say that you were in this battle... for the time being, I appreciate it." Are you willing to take on the most exhausting country in the future? "
"Ah, no... there's no way..."
The silent signal of Ceras.
Truth.
"Believe me."
and showed a gesture of hesitation.
But immediately, with a determined expression,
"Um, uh... actually, I 'll--"
An confessed.
Actually, Belzeggia... she was trying to kill me.
After the confession, An,
"That's what I heard from people in this country." You're the one who's been looking for me..... "
"I let them search because I knew they were heroes from other worlds." I also wanted to ask you a few questions - if you're grateful in the sense of kindness, then I want to thank you for finding you and the subordinates who took care of you. "
"Even so... I owe it to you to be alive." If it hadn't been for me, I might have been dead. Thank you so much... and I'm sorry. even though I completely lost sight of myself, I was trying to kill you..... "
"But... the goddess ordered me to kill you if I didn't accept the invitation." I hadn't even been solicited yet.... "
"No, it's not... I was trying to kill you... without soliciting... from the source... but now I can only say it's stupid..."
Anhui fell silent for a while.
Soon, I dropped my gaze on my hand.
"I think you were... envious of everything." I mean... I'm jealous. "
Don't pretend to be the truth within you.
I had the courage to admit it--that's how it looked.
"I appeared on the battlefield where I had tragically fled, covered my desperate state of battle, and the king of bamboo, who had lightly defeated his close relatives... moreover, Seras-san, considered to be the most beautiful person on the continent, was beside me..."
At that time, I raised my gaze.
Then, a happy expression appeared on his face.
Inexpensively, there was a glimpse of Cyrus in her eyes.
It's a strange story - it's like I just realized its existence.
Now I finally recognize the beauty.
... An didn't "properly recognize" Cyrus until now?
Cheeky, who raised his cheeks, shyly turned away from his gaze.
"I have such a partner who is powerful, prestigious, and everyone envies... I think I felt... cool in my heart."
Yasuke closed her eyes and raised the edge of her mouth.
"I probably wanted to be like you in this other world."
It was a disgusting smile.
But that smile quickly turned into a self-inflicted one.
"That's why I thought I'd finish you off with this hand... and take away all your" all "that has everything." I didn't even know it. "
"Have all of them, all of them?"
"... at least that's what it looked like to me." Honestly, even now. "
It's not that good either.
I'll tell you what.
"The bad part is unexpected, invisible from the outside. There's a lot you don't know, even if it's a friend or neighbor you meet often. For example, even if you envy me, I have a lot of unpleasant and unpleasant feelings - I did. It's not always good to be noticed more than necessary. I also feel depressed. Even for Ceras, she has something to hold on to. In the first place, people have too high expectations of what they don't know. But once you get close to the expectation, you can see that most things were fantasies. Exceeding expectations is rare. And finally... fantasy falls into" reality "."
"... you're an adult, aren't you, Belzegia?"
"I'm just desperately stretching my back and growing up."
"Haha," said Anhui bitterly.
I think that's what you call an adult, right?
I'll put a beat on it.
"You wanted to be recognized by someone."
"... maybe"
"But you didn't admit it."
"...... Yes"
“Did you admit to someone?”
"...... I don't think I was there."
“If you want to be recognized, you might want to start by acknowledging someone. That way, you may be able to recognize it naturally.”
…………
"If you don't like it - if you don't admit it, if you want to be proud of yourself... you'll need a lot of energy and ability." And I'm sure it's a very lonely path... but there may still be something else you asked for. "
I'm going to beat a few more beats,
“It's up to that person to decide which one to choose.”
"... yes, that's right."
An honestly nodded.
; and
"... um?"
She raised her face and looked at me.
I 'm--I 'm putting my hand up.
I'm Belzegia, the leader of the Battle Knight Regiment.
Introducing yourself again - and asking for a handshake.
It seems that Yasuo understood immediately,
"... cheap ex-brave Tomohiro Yasu."
Yasu-san grabbed my hand with a gentle grip.
Preaching words like this to someone who has lost sight of the way -- dye (...) mi (...).
And this handshake is a sign of trust.
People still have a lighter mouth to their trusted counterparts.
There was no sign of an attack on Yasuhiro.
No hostility.
There is trust in those who understand themselves.
It's time to get to the bottom of this: information.
"--Oh, wow"
I take out my pocket watch in a slightly acting way.
"I'm supposed to ask a lot of questions, but it's been a long story... Actually, I have a few questions for Tomohiro-san." Are you sure you want to go back to the point? "
"Ah, yes... please ask me anything"
I asked some questions.
An honestly replied "Truth".
But to be honest, I couldn't say I had new information that far.
However, the information of 2-C was slightly updated.
They were steadily preparing for the Great Demon Emperor.
I didn't hear much movement - but the showdown over there was close.
"Thank you, Tomohiro-san... I wanted to get some information about the other side of the planet because I was hostile to the Aryon."
Chelsea gave a confident smile.
“I don't know if I can help you.”
No, that's enough.
Now, let's do it.
I don't know what to do after this, but--
▽
Leaving the cheap room, I walked out of the hallway alongside Therus.
"You said something, Cyrus."
"Ahh... yes"
Ceras looked behind him.
She made sure there was no sign of her surroundings.
"Are you sure?" That person, that-- "
"Are you curious that you didn't reveal your identity even though you knew the original world?"
The answer did not come back immediately.
But the expression says yes.
I stopped once,
"... I thought that if he knew the true identity of the King of Wu, he would be confused and feel superfluous." He thinks of me as "the one who doesn't know the old Yasujihiro", so I feel like I can be honest with him... "
That's right.
I feel glad that it was not the "Sanmori Lantern River" that saved An.
"Surprisingly, this kind of thing... is good because it's someone else."
"I want to apologize if I can."
That's what I said.
I don't think it's a good idea to know that the true identity of the Shinobi King is "I" - for him.
That's why.
The Mimori Lantern River in him is still good for the past.
Just stay dead, okay?
