However, you won't get caught in the middle of the boundary.
I said, "What is it, a fire?You'll be safe in the juncture, "he says, and goes back to sleep again.The radicals shake it hard.
"Dear Alisa, No matter how safe it is inside the boundary, it's best if the floor gets out of the fire, right?
Ah... that's true.
Speaking of which, yes.If the floor comes off, you can't do that.
I hit the wall of this room with the magic of a strong wind.A large whirlpool in the room eats the wall and punctures the hole.Apply floating magic to our bodies and escape the inn.
"Wow..."
Escape the inn and overlook the whole town.All the buildings in the town are burning with momentum.It's the sea of fire. It's a big fire.
"Eh, why, why?Oh yes, we need to help the people in the square!
That's how I rushed over the square, but the square is also a sea of fire.Wherever the festivities go, you can see the remnants of the tools used for the barbecue, as well as the corpses and thoughtful things.
Hih...
"Alisa, just get me somewhere safe!It's dangerous when the magic runs out when you're on fire, I'm scared. "
"... yeah, that's right."
As May told us, we'll move gently through the air and descend to the side of the mountain surrounding the basin.
Amazing view...
The sea of fire surrounding the town illuminates the entire mountain surrounding the basin red.
Ah, I wonder if it's a wild boarding house today.
Eh, I'm scared of the boarding house.
Alisa's boundaries will be safe.
May is responding to the blurriness of the radica.
"For now, we have to put out the fire."
May asks when I ring my fist.
"What about extinguishing the fire?
"Yes, climate control and rain here.Hmm?
Well, I noticed a shadow in the immediate vicinity.
"I'm sorry, are you all right?
Standing there was a man who was old enough that his hair had begun to grow gray.I was sitting on a big rock on the side of the mountain.
"Ah, you don't look like you're here.You're traveling. "
"Yes, it's a huge fire.I'll turn it off now, so it's okay. "
"No, you don't have to turn it off.If it's erased, it's annoying. "
What?
With that word, I release all the magic I had in my hands.
"What do you mean?
"Oh, this is suicide."
"Suicide?"
The man sits back on the rock.
"Did you know that a palace was built in King's Landing a few years ago?
"Yes"
"That's not all.Do you know how many theatres and shrines have been built in King's Landing?
"Yes"
In my reply, the man sighs and then talks roughly.
"Everything is wrong with the King!The King will destroy this cuckoo!
Someday next to me was May and Radica.We sit between the men.
According to the story, the man is the mayor of the town of Ikuhino.Kurch III had imposed labor and heavy taxes on various towns to build several luxurious buildings in the King's City.Ikuhino is also one of the towns that was damaged.
Originally, the town was not able to harvest as much farmland and vegetables as it used to, and earned a living.And all the young men were cast out, and brought unto the king's city.Moreover, not only were all salaries cut off, but many died in harsh labor.All that remained was a woman and an old man.This is not enough to satisfactorily earn money, but the heavy taxes imposed to build luxurious buildings drove them down.People in the town grew up in poverty and thought that they could not escape the tax and would have to die anymore.
"So, what was that festival?
When I ask, the mayor swallows the chestnuts.
"... the last supper.I collected all the property in town and spent it overnight.It was a horrible festival, but that's all there is to it.There's nothing left in this town anymore.Everyone in town is breathing in the house now, praying to God.Hahaha... "
The mayor starts laughing with tears and covers his face with his hands.
"I swore to defend this town with my life, but this is the worst outcome."I can't apologize to everyone in town.I want to see this sight through and die. "
"Ehhh, it's not good to die!
"Please. Please, you have to leave."
"No, you're dead. What's the matter, Rajika?
Radhika slaps me on the shoulder in a hurry.May also grabs my hand.
"It's too late. Let's leave this man alone and go."
"That's right. Suppose you saved the mayor, what would you do after that?
Eh, but...
Radica tied a rope to my arm and pulled it.May also pulls my other arm.
"Wait, we both need to help the mayor." Hey, both of you?
I was dragged away by the two of you.
◆ ◆ ◆
The time is still unknown.
In the woods, we gathered large leaves and stood on the ground.Instead of a futon.
Hey...
I go into the leaves and ask the radicals lying next to me.
"Isn't there a way to save that town?
"I didn't die because there was no other way."
"Hey, Rajika, how can you say something so cold?
"I don't know. Sleep.Good night. "
That's how Radica turns her back on me.I look at its back and think something out of silence for a while, and then say, "Good night," and I lie down.
◆ ◆ ◆
Early in the morning, I get up earlier than the two of you, and I just float up.
This forest is on a mountain surrounding Ikuhino.When you rise high, you can also see the town of Ikuhino.The town was completely gray.Smoke is still coming in.Is the mayor dead too?
Couldn't I save this town?I'm a traveler who just arrived yesterday.
I have a lot of money.But it may not be enough to save one of these towns.
The people in the town really wanted to be alive.
But because of the king's tyranny, he chose death.
Yesterday, the word "Savior", spoken to the priest of the town of Hornim, strikes his head.
When I meet another Savior, this country will perish and a new world will be opened to save all peoples.
Is that really possible?
If I were to be the Messiah, as the Divine God said, could I save the people of this city?
Can anyone live happily without dying?
But am I stuck with the Saviors?
Can I accomplish the great business of saving a town?
No, we have a bigger business.To destroy this country.
Is it possible for me to do something like that that that can't save one town?
I wasn't originally interested in politics, but seeing this kind of scene in front of me gives rise to nature and remorse.
When I realized it, I was crying.
Disappointment with the King, an irreplaceable sense of helplessness, a maze with no right answers.
Everything carves my body in pieces.
Let us offer silent prayer.
I close my eyes and put my hands together.
If only the people of that town could die happy.
I kept hoping that such a happy day would come.
