"I'm never going."
I made myself clear. I don't know if everyone here can help where I've been. Besides, they were saying things that would get them out of here. I guess there's some kind of tease, like a door that leads anywhere in an anime. If you say I'm going, they'll take you to that empire. And I guess the kids here will be taken too. That means war.
There is nothing good about war, and children must always be returned to their parents. I'm just a kid.
There are many things I would like to hear in front of you.
But no.
"I knew it.... Oh man, I didn't really want to use these hands..."
Joshua looked at this one with a deliberate sorry face.
"What are you going to do?
Out front so the Count can hide me behind him. How handsome.
"... Keith"
"Yes, sir."
A doll who was totally thorough with bystanders moves his hand. We stood still, but the dolls around us didn't move at all.
"Hey, princess. Do you like theatre?
"I've never seen it before."
I have a bad feeling.
"Yes. Then you should take a look next time"
"The lead role doesn't matter in theater. It's not funny without flowers in the lead. But the stage just for the lead isn't funny either.
It's also important that the stars shine.
"The lead is a cute princess, and a cool prince..."
As if singing on stage, he spins words.
Soon his hand was held by a silver glowing sword.
I was annoyed.
Don't, don't come.
This is a dream, a continuation.
Um, abominable.
"You shouldn't... You mustn't come!!! Aihi!!!
I screamed. I could see a bloody wet Eich in my sight.
"Princess?... who the hell is Eich..."
Look at me the Earl yelled at me with a strange face. I didn't know what to say. It's just a fact that something outrageous happens.
But why would Eich come here?
It was then.
No, there was a door opening.
"Joshua, are you sure you want Luche to be here?
Eich's voice was heard. More than that, what does Joshua mean? I stare at the modoki in front of me. He said this was a real Joshua. Maybe that's not a lie.
"Why, Master Eich... Those idiots, what the hell are you doing with two of them!!
Apparently the Count has figured things out too, he's being evil toward someone. Two idiots can't be... No, not quite.
"What the hell is going on with you!?
Joshua Modki looks like he's having fun. Really frustrating.
"This is the undisputed real Joshua."
I don't think it's a lie, but what's with Joshua and Eich?
"If you think I'm lying, you can kill me."
"... or the money for the doll tricks there..."
The Count said abominably.
"It's because of you."
"You mean you called Joshua using a pseudo-puppet?
Oh, my God. What happened to the guards on Master Aihi in the first place!!!
"That's right. From now on, you'll see something interesting..."
"Rouche?... are you there?
It looks like Eich noticed us because we screamed.
"Eich!! Don't come over here...!!
I screamed but staying by that doll doesn't change anything dangerous. How can I...
"What are you talking about!? I was worried that it would be gone."
Looks like Eich saw Joshua right in front of us, too. Words stop.
"What's the joke? Were you also the twins of the parting?
He also noticed Eich in this unusual space, his voice is starting to tremble.
"These kids... Joshua..., what did you...?
"Dear Eich!! Talk to you later! Come on over here!! Neither is YOUR Joshua!!
The hostage is Eich, the first princess of this country. It is the worst diagram.
"... what do you mean... Answer me! You did it all!!?
Eich is questioning Joshua, the doll in front of him. I know how you feel, but now I want you to come over here.
"Eich!! Listen to me! That's not Joshua either!!
"Haha, it's hard to be betrayed by a squire you believed in"
"Are you willing to take Master Eich hostage...?
"Hostage. Hey. It's not such a raw thing.... Princess, this is your fault."
"Huh?"
"I wish you had taken my hand honestly then"
And besides, he threw a silver sword into the air. Yeah, I just threw it away.
It's just...
"Kofu..."
The sword penetrated Eich's chest deeply.
