"I'm sorry I'm late, Your Majesty. You don't have to wait for the password. But, Asuna, you really want to see me in person... here."

"Well... Eddie, give me a chair"

Asuna bows her head deeply before sitting in the chair prepared by Mr. Eddie.

I guess she took a bath, her face and hair were dirty and her clothes were new.

However, I am still very thin compared to those days.

Even though it had only been a month and a half, it seemed much smaller than Asuna I knew.

She bows her head deeply after breathing a little.

"Your Majesty, Mr. Eddie, and... lo, Lord... thank you... thank you...!

That's what she says, her head down shaking her voice and shoulders.

King Celtic lifted his hips and, as he approached Asuna, fell on one knee on the spot.

"Asuna... To be honest, I don't know how to apologize to you. All I have to do is bow this stupid head... sorry"

"Oh, please, Your Majesty! Wow, I... I was stupid...! So just living like this now...... even that to me......!

"That's the same thing with me. Both of us were destined to die today... and both of us were saved by Lord."

"was, yes...... what I did to Lord was not acceptable. It's the same thing for the family I attacked. Even if it was affected in any way, I can't forgive myself. Yet Lord... Ugh... wow, take me..."

How would it have been if I had been in the opposite position?

Would they have accepted death by doing so?

Would I have apologized like Asuna?

I... what words should I hang...

I walked under Asuna, just like King Celtic.

"Asuna... I'm alive now... thanks also to Asuna. Of course... that was... hard... but still because I had you... so that's enough."

"Lo, Lord...... uuuuuuuu! I'm sorry... I'm sorry...!

She put her hands on her face and was just crying.

As I once did in front of Mr. Crown.

So I put my hand on her shoulder...

After Asna calms down a little, we get down to business.

You have to know that why Asuna became known as incompetent.

"Asna, what happened... will you talk to me?

"Yeah... all of it... I'll tell you"

That's how she started talking.

She became known as incompetent...... about that day.

Whoa, whoa.

We can see Celtic towns surrounded by huge walls just ahead of us looking down the mountain.

The large and splendid towns were mostly made of stone bricks, with grey streets illuminated by the sunset.

"Wow... this is the king's capital of Celtic..."

'That's right, Asna. This high wall protects the King's capital. I need this permit to go in and out. "

With that said, the brave man showed me his permit.

'Sounds like you'll be able to get some sleep in a while, Roy. So, is Asna's welcome party tonight?

'That's right, Miriam. Lilith and Jean are going to do that. "

'Okay. Asuna, let's have fun today.'

Mr. Lilith hugged me and stroked my head.

Glad to hear that... you've been so nice already...

"I think I need to buy a lot of booze or something. Miriam drinks a lot for a woman."

"Jean, why don't you let a woman drink? Hmm? '

"Oh, scary. Asuna doesn't want this to happen. '

Everyone laughs at Mr. Jean's words at the same time.

Glad to be at the party...... I don't know if I can help, but let's do the best we can.

I'm going to town, guys.

After the brave, we descend the mountain, and we enter the king's capital of Celtic.

I immediately found the inn and went out to buy it out except for me and Mr. Lilith.

'And Mr. Jean's magic is amazing. I'm not tired at all, and I can't believe I'm faster than a carriage.'

'That's right - I'm usually confused, but it's easier with him. Miriam's magic is handy. "

"Mr. Lilith's magic is amazing too! I'm gonna find everything. '

'Well. Otherwise, you won't be able to stay at a brave party. Oh, for once, I'm saying detective magic for convenience, but it's not. Next time I get a chance to teach... I'll teach you.'

'Yes! So... Um, do I really help? I'm kind of anxious...'

"Are you still saying that? It's okay. Roy needs your magic. I found it, so stick your chest out!

Mr. Lilith bangs me on the back.

It hurt a little... but I was happy.

'Yes! I'll do my best!

Talking for a while, the brave men returned from the buyout and my welcoming party began immediately.

The first time I drank alcohol tasted kind of weird, but whatever because everyone seemed to enjoy it.

I seem to be surprisingly resistant to alcohol and didn't get sleepy enough to get a little confused.

The fun times passed quickly and when I realized it was around 2: 00 midnight.

'Oh, this is already such a time. It's not what we planned, but let's get started. "

'Right. Well, it won't be a problem'

"Oh, you want to start? Well, I can't help it. '

"Well, let's do it right."

That's what I say, everyone gets up and surrounds me.

What is it...?

'I put in quite a bit... physique.'

'Maybe. So long, Miriam. "

"Yes... brave man"

"Um... what... come on!? Ngu!?

Suddenly Mr. Miriam, who was behind me, strapped his wings, and Mr. Lilith blocked my mouth with a cloth.

All of a sudden, I don't know why, and I'm tied up without much resistance.

hey, why......!?

Do what!?

"Whoa. Ready - '

"Bye, Asna. I'll take your magic."

Huh...?

"Nguuuuu!?

The moment the brave man grabbed my face, something seemed to fall out of me... I felt that way.

I got scared. I tried to use magic aggressively...

'It's no use, Asna. It's too late.'

What the...? There is no magic......!

Keep it up, Master Brave keeps pulling something out of me.

I just... could only raise my roar.

How many minutes has it been?

The brave man took his hand off me, and finally my restraint was lifted.

I'm conscious... but my body doesn't move.

"Ah... but... to..."

"Oh, that's amazing. What about Asna? I'm still conscious. I don't know if I can remember, but I'll thank you. I just wanted magic like yours. I ran out in the meantime... and Lilith told me I found you."

What... it...

'Good for you, Asna. Now you are part of the brave'

Makes sense......

'Congratulations, and... thank you'

Oh no... I'm scared...

"Well, go to sleep..."

What...........................................................................................

'... right. ……… again…'

No... sleepy...

"……………………………………………………"

That's how my consciousness broke.

Whoa, whoa.

"I was in the middle of the square when I woke up. There was a crowd around and everyone was looking at me... with eyes like they were looking at garbage. Everywhere I was told I was incompetent and I tried to show magic. But my magic... wasn't mine anymore... later... anymore..."

"Asuna, that's enough..."

Shaking Asuna's hand.

After that... because I know more than anyone.

"Asna, thank you for talking to me. You should get some rest... Eddie, I'm sorry..."

"Oh, okay. Asuna, come here..."

Asna is taken by Mr. Eddie to leave the room behind.

It made me kind of sad to see that my footsteps didn't get bumpy and I left to bring them to Mr. Eddie.

"Roy...... that bastard......"

The expression conveys Mr. Byrne's anger even if he can't see it.

I feel the same way.

The braves... Roy... don't care about anyone else.

"I've seen Roy before... with Eddie. But Eddie didn't say anything in particular..."

"Dear Eddie's skill is the ability to recognize the negative aura of the" malicious eye... "It captures negative things in human emotions, such as hatred and guilt... maybe Roy doesn't originally have those things..."

"Alice has also seen Roy." Alice looked at Roy and said, "Scary." There's nothing in him. There was darkness. "

Nothing. Darkness...

Mr. Byrne said, "Roy's not who you guys think he is." That's what I meant...

"And I'm sorry... why did Roy leave Asuna alone?
