□ [Armored Pilot] Hugo Receps

With the beads in Mr. Manigold's hands, the escort began in earnest.

From now on, tomorrow at noon...... we need to be careful until we get to Dragnomad.

"Hugo. I need you and Cuco to patrol the ship. But Cuco can sense the [Murder Princess]."

"Yeah. That crazy freakin '(...) kake-yes, I'll know soon enough"

Cuco nods at Mr. Manigold's words.

Cuco's "Hell Gate" refers to the target's number of fellow crusaders, a skill with the result of [freezing].

In that relationship, Cuco can sensibly know the large number of fellow crusaders of others in the range of effects.

And Emily records the number of fellow crusaders who seem to have overlapped the digits with the digits. If we get within range, Cuco will know right away.

They used to feel more blurred, but to Emily in Cortana... they've become more acute than before since they met the most fellow crusaders ever.

"Then if you look around each room block, deck, or in-store facility, you are likely to get hooked. I had it looked around yesterday, but it's also possible that I got on board in the city I parked in earlier. I want you to look around every moor in the future."

"Okay. Is Mr. Manigold okay?

"The Lord... no, rest assured that I am packing around the Lord"

Mr. Isala tried to say something and smiled so in rephrasing.

"Oh. I'll keep the beads and the comms in Isala while I log out. If the timing isn't right, ask Isara for directions."

"Yes, then I'll go around"

"Bye. Crazy Fat"

"... Cuco."

We left the room and went on patrol, although Cuco vomited his poisonous tongue, without the wind that Mr. Manigold was particularly concerned about.

Unpopular passage...... walk around the passage where there are few people to avoid people, with Cuco and I looking around.

I cut out what I've been concerned about since yesterday, with no one else alone.

"Cuco. Ever since yesterday, but it's too spicy for Mr. Manigold for anything... It's too straightforward to say and do, but I'm not a bad person, so be more polite... right?

…………

When I was embarrassed, Cuco silenced with a slightly mushy face.

"... because that fat guy is a bun (...)"

I leaned my neck to that word that Potsuri and Cuco uttered.

"Second?

"That fat bastard."

That's what Cuco told me when he asked me to parrot back.

And with some frustrating face, keep the word going.

"- My count, after Emily, he hey (...)"

Cuco's count. Needless to say, that's about the number of fellow crusaders.

There is no doubt that Emily is the largest in history.

But the next thing... that Mr. Manigold?

"... that's a master or Gideon duel ranker... even compared to that [Destroyer King]?

"Fat guy, yeah."

Considering the meaning of the word, I guessed, 'Killing just < master >, or just a duel, would not be such a number'.

Some of the spiciness of Cuco, even if that's why.

"Probably that fat guy is such a dick (...). He's got everything on him."

"But Mr. Manigold doesn't look like such an easy loser to human life, though..."

"The nasty one, and the one with a lot of corn, is the basketless one. The one with the annoying (...) also said something like"

"Luke's..."

- If I understood, do you think I wouldn't do that (...)?

What I recall is what Luke once said in Gideon.

At that time, when he said to me, 'My sister understands that Tian is life,' he ran out of words, 'Even if she understands, she will slaughter you'.

And in fact, my sister was trying to move Plan C, which she kept secret from me too, and slaughter Gideon's people with over 50,000 monsters.

Proof left that even those who don't think I'm a bad guy will step through Tian's massacre.

... Speaking of which, Cuco was spicy on his sister as well.

Anyway, that's what Cuco hates (...).

"Probably that fat guy too. In order to come, the hiccups are the type that hiccups."

"It's out of the question to take it by force," Mr. Manigold said.

I guess that's for real.

But it's not about not fighting or killing... not using force and equals.

"And I'm sure..."

Cuco is rare, I say.

In that reaction, I immediately realized who I was trying to mention.

"... the same for my master," he said?

"Yeah. I'm sure, < Sephiroto > is one of those, ah I mean.... Yeah, no. This is how (...) itself is."

expel those who should be expelled for the purpose.

If you think about it, the recovery of the beads was the first hermione, and the next Cortana also had rough events.

Even with the prerequisite of negotiation, that seems to me to have been premised on being half-baked.

"I'm not too fond of this."

That's what Cuco said with a view of the desert landscape.

I've been complaining about the climate for a long time, but not this time.

"For this, and how (...). More than monsters, humans become human textures. I'm sure that's the usual. What I want is too much."

Cardina is in the centre of the continent, the country where the most wealth and goods are gathered.

Many move to this country for what they seek.

- A guy called Happiness hurdles up enough to taste lavish.

- It tastes better, it's more fun, it feels better, it's better...

- There is no limit to a person's desire.

- It costs (...) just that much.

Mr. Manigold's words must be… not limited to money.

"I don't know what to do."

…………

With the word 'breathless'...... understood.

Cuco can guess the number of fellow crusaders.

It's a feeling we don't understand, it's just Cuco's.

If you look from Cuco, maybe Cardina's humans are a lot harder to accept for her.

I guess Mr. Manigold and his master will be among them.

Cuco has been in Cardina ever since... maybe he had that thought.

Just a little poisonous tongue, cover it up for me, too.

That's what she's disclosing now.

"Cuco......"

"But that's the only thing. This skill… because I am good with me (...)"

"Cuco......"

Why Cuco was born as Cuco.

That, I'm sure...

"Hugo."

"... something"

Cuco stops, looks up at my face... and looks me straight in the eyes.

And......

"I did well with this one because I'm sure - Hugo's old man was cursed (...)"

In an unpopular passage, Cuco's words were heard only by me.

I… it was at twilight last year that Yuri's father died.

At the Lorraine College of Women at a time when I made Christmas and New Year's homecoming my father's obituary.

Even after my parents divorced, I think my relationship with my father was good.

"Let's have dinner together for Christmas," my father said on the phone, as he did every year.

"My mother... it was Yuri's grandmother's dream," said my father, who admitted me to the Lorraine College of Women with all the tuition.

"Was this a good gift for you this year?," said my father, who gave presents somewhere anxiously every birthday.

Only against me, from beginning to end...... kind Father.

Hearing that father's obituary...... I remember falling in shock.

But what really shocked me was not the very fact that I was dead...... the reason.

The cause of my father's death was his death.

Home...... now it was my biological home where only my father lived and someone shot me to death.

The killer could be a robber. It could be resentment.

I was talking about no wonder even in the latter because he was the one who bought a lot of grudges in the course of commerce.

The case is still unsolved, and the police are looking for the killer.

I just couldn't believe it.

I couldn't believe that my sweet father was killed by someone.

At the end of the funeral, when I buried my father, there were few participants.

I visited a few people from my father's general counsel or from the company.

My family was... just me.

My paternal grandparents were already dead, and my father has no brothers.

My mother didn't attend because she said 'I don't feel like going,' and my sister was missing.

In the rain that descended, I dropped off my father's coffin, which was buried in the earth.

Then a man from my father's general counsel told me about the inheritance.

My father's company is going to be bought by others, but the estate, including that, was to be divided and inherited by me and my sister.

Unless there is a will in France, all estates are given to children.

And the Father did not think that he would die soon, because he had not prepared a will for "what if", and his immense legacy was distributed to us according to the law.

At this time, my father gave me his last gift.

That's not a legacy.

It was a reunion with my sister.

Someone from the General Counsel found me a sister in every detective and investigative agency in every country for the purpose of property sharing.

That's how my sister and I met again for the first time in years.

My sister invited me to < Infinite Dendrogram > so I could stay in touch, and I'm here now.

Until the end... I think my father helped me in my life until the end.

That's why I wasn't convinced they killed my father.

My mother was convinced, and my sister seemed just a little sad saying "yes......" but she didn't look greatly shocked.

But I wasn't the only one convinced... I don't think I could have done it.

My mother or sister may have had another... negative emotion strongly on my father.

But my father... was a kind father to me to the end.

I was not convinced that my father had been killed by someone, and I could not forgive him...

Let that feeling always smoke somewhere in your heart.

Let part of your heart cool off.

I guess that's why Cuco came from me - Coquitos (Ice Hell).

"I was good from Hugo's occasional (...) Go ahead, give it to Gibakuro (...)."

…………

It was the first time I heard why I was born out of Cuco's mouth.

But since Cuco was born... I've felt that way.

When was that, what your sister was saying?

As I add to the story of personality diagnosis by category:

- In the first place, < Embrio > only comes from the person.

That's what he said.

Personality, skills, aspirations, life and essence of the person.

Or, trauma or complex.

Because it reads personal, its appearance and power becomes a mirror that photographs < master >.

That's why Ray's nemesis was a force to mask the tragedy in front of him.

That is why my sister's pandemonium was a power to create with unlimited freedom.

That's why Cuco was born as an Embrio to try a murderer (a fellow killer).

"... the breathlessness of Cuco now also causes me to produce Cuco that way..."

"Yeah."

To my words, Cuco nodded.

There was no comfort, no deception, and I affirmed that I was the reason of my own nature.

My heart, which could not tolerate the murder of my father, spawned her as a sinner.

The discomfort she first exposed stems from me.

To that, I feel heavier...

"But I don't care about that (...). I can't even do one thing about it"

"Huh?"

"The bully is because of the basics (...)"

That's what I said to kick the grudge I started to hold, and Cuco strained his chest with Hunce.

"Another thing... what?

…………

However, when I inquired, I put my arms together and began to worry.

The way it looks is not the "I don't know what else is" wind.

"Should I talk about it now?"

"I don't want it now."

And that's what Cuco said.

"Cuco......"

"One day I'll have a hard time with it, and I'll have a good time with Hugo. But that's not right now. So stay with me until then. Now, get your hands on me."

With words, Cuco stares straight at me.

The expression is as usual faceless, but her own strong will dwells in its eyes.

It seemed to me that there was a line that I couldn't give away as her to not answer my question here and now...

"... ok"

So now I couldn't ask more than that either.

"But I can't ignore the discomfort Cuco would have right now. If you feel unbearable, I want you to go in the crest and rest."

"Mmm."

Cuco nodded small, poking a ton of my chest.

I wasn't sure if that meant "tattoo" or "let it go then". Or did it contain both meanings?

In any case, let me change my mind too, as Cuco said.

Because what we need to do now is contain the damage caused by Emily, who may come after the beads.

Be the two dances of Cortana, don't be.

"... let's go"

"Yeah."

That's how we started walking again to a block with a general cabin.
