... live free!

Lena and I broke up properly. I was walking towards the orphanage. It's something I made a good promise to Lena, but when I think about talking to Lumia, I remember it was an orphanage and my legs are about to snap. But we have to work hard! With that in mind, I was walking to the orphanage.

That's good until I got to the front of the orphanage, but I was worried near the entrance to the orphanage because I didn't know what to say and see Lumia.

"Your-sister?

Then there was Lumia when she turned her gaze to those who heard her squeal like that from the entrance to the orphanage.

"Ugh, yeah."

All I could do was snort because I ran into Lumia on the arrow tip thinking about what to say to Lumia.

……

……

Then for a while there was an awkward air without exchanging words with each other. I was thinking of telling Lumia something, but I can't think of a word to hang it.

"And why don't we just go inside?

Then I nodded and went inside the orphanage because Lumia suggested going inside the orphanage with a little hesitation.

I wish I had walked into a room and sat there, but I had an awkward time without words for quite a while...

(Gacha)

In such awkward air, there was a sudden sound of someone coming in from the entrance. Then Lumia stood up as if she had noticed the sound as well.

"Hey, let's see how it goes."

That's what Lumia said and left the room.

"Ha... What are you really doing, me..."

I was a little disgusted with myself not being able to cut out the story with that in mind. And some time after Lumia left the room, I heard a doozy noise at the front door.

"? Lumia, what are you doing?

When I stood up thinking so, I heard a Lumia scream called 'Hip'. Could something have gone wrong!? That's what I thought and hurried to the front door.

That's how when I got to the position where I could see the front door, the man was about to tie Lumia up and take charge.

"What are you doing to Lumia!!

Saying so, I ran to the man, but the man was surprised to notice my presence, but immediately fled outside the building, so I chased after him.

That's how I chased the guy, but he left the orphanage, stopped on a wide road nearby, and turned to me. And the man pulled out his sword and laid it on me.

I wonder if that means fighting like this because I keep Lumia on my back...... With that in mind, when I pulled out my dagger and set it up, the man quickly approached me and swung down my sword, so I tried to distance myself, but the man packed an intermission with me and waved his sword. I was avoiding that or preventing it with a dagger, but the blow is so heavy that I can't prevent it well that I get more cuts on my body. No matter how hard I tried, there were too many differences in strength and physique to be on the defensive side.

(Like this, then one day I'm gonna lose! We have to do something!

Though I couldn't do anything, I did my best to avoid eating fatal injuries. That's when the guy got his distance once, so I was thinking about how I could help Lumia with a dagger on the guy and ask him how he was doing. Even though he's playing my opponent with one hand still in charge of Lumia in the middle of a fight, he doesn't look tired of the guy either. When I wanted to help Lumia but I felt like I could only prolong the fight and couldn't do it, I felt a pain in my back and out of sight even though I had enemies in front of me. Hurry up and try to see the man. Looking forward, the man was in a more remote position than he had been earlier for some reason.

Why? I thought I was trying to move my body a little bit and there was a severe pain running around my stomach and when I looked at my stomach, a red, dirty silver object was sticking out of my stomach.

"Huh?"

I didn't know what the object was sticking out of my stomach for a moment, but when I found out it was a sword, I was pulled out of my stomach. In that intense pain, I pressed my stomach in agitation, but fell to collapse on the spot without standing. Then whoever was behind it approached me and kicked the dagger I had and flew away somewhere.

I can't fight anymore...... I still can't believe we haven't even been able to discuss this with Lumia... Reaching out to those with Lumia with that in mind, the man who carried Lumia walked out with his back to me. At that time, I lost consciousness where I felt I had gaze with Lumia, who looked spicy.
