"Destroyed in a struggle?

"I don't even know the details.By that time, I knew the difference between man and woman.I've just heard rumors of wind that something like that has happened. "

"Really...."

What the hell happened to Monica's house?

What do you think, what do you think....

Why did you choose to be on the Devil's side?

I don't know, but maybe she has something to sympathize with.

Like England, there may be only one reason to do so.

Except unlike England, she and I will never cross paths.

Even if Monica's actions are justified, as in England....

Or no matter what the cause is.....

She tried to hurt her friends.

You can't miss that.

No matter what Monica's actions mean.

I'll pull out the blade too, as long as she's pointing it at me.

Whatever the reason, whatever the cause, to protect our most important companions, I'll... slay Monica.

"What are you going to do?

"If there's anything I can do, look into the situation, and if there's a good reason, I hope I can convince you."

"Do you think it'll work?

"Probably not.From her, I felt something like unwavering faith. "

"So what do we do?

"Do what you can, and if you still can't, I'll slash you."

Hmm.

The captain stared straight at me.

I feel a little nervous as if I'm peeking into our hearts.

"Hmm... since then, it seems to be growing a little bit."

Is that a compliment?

I can't say anything because the feelings of the chief are difficult to understand.

"Is that the end of the story?

"Ah, yes. For the time being."

Well then, is it about time we finished?There are other things I have to do because of the length of my life. "

"I see. Thank you for your time."

Thank you and leave the captain's house later.....

"... if anything happens, I hope you come back again"

"Thank you!

Again, with my head down, I left the captain's house behind.

――――――――――

"Whoa, Rain's back!

"Are you okay, Rain?Didn't the chief tell you something terrible?

When I left, Luna, Sola and England appeared.

They were worried about me, and the twins just rushed in.

"It's okay. They didn't say anything terrible."

"Hmm, you're not lying, are you?

"Though he's face-to-face, he's still tough on humans, so Sora's worried."

In contrast to the two worried people,

"Fufu, I'm so annoyed, Rain-san.Did you get anything?

England is plain.

Perhaps you trust me to be okay.

I'm both happy that you're worried and that you trust me.

I'm happy to have such a wonderful companion.

And... Monica tried to hurt her friends.

I don't know if that's true for now.....

If you keep pointing the blade, we'll just intercept it with the appropriate response.

Hmm?

"Rain, you look scared...?

"Oh, no. I'm sorry, I was just thinking."

"After all, is it because you talked to the chief?My sister. Let the chief have a bit of my sister's homemade food. "

"Ok... so why is Sora's cooking treated like a weapon?

Hyuhhhh

Staring at Sola, Luna whistled and deceived her.

Pretty wild.

So, Miss Rain?

"Ah... I got permission to use my crimson tears.Come on. "

Red tears were removed from the pockets.

"Fufu, it's beautiful... but"

"What's going on?

The face of England seeing crimson tears is difficult.

"You tried to keep me here, right?

"Ah, yes, but...."

"In that case, there is still a lot of magic, or is it slightly exceeding the power of Orihalcon... why?

"Is there such a thing?

"It's not normal.That's why I'm confused. "

If you don't know anything, you look at Sola and Luna.

However, they shook their necks sideways.

"I don't know anything?

"I don't even know Sola."

"Are there any stories of strengthening magic or alchemists training?

"No, I didn't do that.I just carry it with me and I don't do anything. "

"Oh, I see... that's right."

"Which one?

"There are only the strongest species near Rain.This gem must have grown naturally while exposed to its magic.Not Oriharkon... but Rare Oriharkon, if you want to name it. "

"I can't believe it was like that...."

Does it mean that I forgot to give it back, and the result is good?

"With Rare Oliharkon, Rain's weapons will be powered up in stages.Fufu, you're becoming an out-of-standard person. "

"I don't mean to surprise you like a human being... but I'd be happy to have more power than I have ever had."

"Oh, what a surprise.I thought I'd be more humble about Rain. "

"I can't even say that. It's starting to happen."

Discover the darkness hidden behind the world.....

They're thinking unexpectedly, leaping in every day.

I don't know when they will strip my teeth and attack me.

"There's one case of Lean, and it needs to be stronger.So we have to protect them. "

Rain, that's not true.

Huh?

"Rain is not the only one who protects Sola and the others, but everyone works together to protect them."

"Rain, you don't have to carry everything."

"I see... I see."

I almost ran off by myself again.

I'm not done yet.

But... my friends will make up for what's missing.

If you're wrong, you'll tell me it's not.

I am very happy with their kindness.

"I hate to say this again, but I'm happy to continue."

Hmm!

Yes!

Say hello to England.

"Fufu, I'll dedicate everything to Rain-san.Ah... I'm sorry, I'm leaving my seat for a moment. "

Iris says that and goes a little further.

Al was there.

――――――――――

"Good evening."

Um, it's been a long time.

When I said hello, Al showed me a pleasant smile.

They once killed each other, but they don't seem to care at all.

No... I guess I was the only one who was killing each other.

Al didn't mean to kill me from the beginning.....

Like Rain, you decided to seal it and let it live.

"I heard about you from my daughters... Hmm, what a surprise.I didn't know you were at Rain's party. "

"Oh, no wonder.I like Rain-san. "

"Hmm. A powerful rival for my daughters."

Fufu

"So... what happened today?I don't think you'd come to the Spirit Nation for a reason. "

"Well, that's what I was going to do... but I still wanted to talk to you properly."

"To concubine?

"Yeah."

I smile.....

Gently lowered his head.

"Thank you for not killing me back then."

"Hmm...."

"Thank you very much for daring to seal it."

"Because my concubine knew about your situation... I can't judge everything as bad.I just felt sorry for you. "

"I taught you that sympathy is very important."

I'm not saying cheaper sympathy is cheaper when it comes to pride.....

Rain doesn't say that.

They feel the same way and feel the same way.

What's wrong with that?

Such a person.....

And now I feel the same way.

Thank you very much.

"Really... hmm.My concubine is very happy to hear that from you. "

Shake hands, if you don't mind.

Um, it's not a settlement.

While we laughed, we gently shook hands.

Now I finally know that the warmth in my hand is Al's kindness.

It's very late.....

But it shouldn't be too late.

Yes, from now on.
