Munou To Yobareta Ore, Yottsu No Chikara Wo Eru
Episode 157: Chasing Wind
"Oh, and Asuna, after all?
The next morning.
While it's still dim, the two of us drag the carriage we were hiding in the woods to put it in front of Asuna's house.
I don't even need to hide it anymore.
"Yeah. But I said go... I'm worried because that happened, but still I can't lose... that's what your mother told me"
"Oh well... your mother is strong. Not at all hostile."
"Right... I wonder if we can be like that too..."
"I'm sure you can be. Because... I was born of those mothers."
"Phew... right"
We laugh at each other as we load our bags into the carriage.
I also thought about the cost of living in the future, and the carriage I bought is quite small.
The roof's on for once, but if I put my stuff on it, it's bread.
Well, I'm not going to move everything with this, and maybe it's okay if it's small.
I left the money for that.
I just finished loading my stuff with that in mind, and my mother came out of the house with Asna's mother.
"Take care...... Tia, Asna. Yes, this lunch box. That's all I can do... but I hope you're okay."
"Thank you!
"Tia, take Asna... nice to meet you"
"Ha! That's what I'm gonna do, Asna...... SENO!
"Huh!
When the two of us pull the carriage, the wheel slowly moves out and carves "Wadachi" on the ground.
As we looked back, your mothers were smiling and waving.
"" Come on!
"" I'm coming!!
Waving back at the two waving hands, we moved forward along the path covered with morning tears.
Every time I look back, I see the mothers waving at me.
Shit...... I'm going to cry again. When I looked to the side, Asuna's eyes were also moisturized.
But because the two of us decided not to cry.
Smile at your mothers.
Besides, we've already broken up.
"That's heavy......!
"Ugh......!
"Various...... you're stuck!
"Right! Don't just go see Lord... with Lord...!
"Ugh! Change the world! So that we can all live in peace!
Soon the sun will begin to illuminate the world, and the mornings will be shed in the wind. The downpouring light showed the way and gradually opened my sight.
When we get to the cobblestone path, the carriage goes better than just now.
The mothers were invisible and I felt my hands off the back hair that was being pulled away. The carriage is making a crisp noise to hold it back.
"" Ah... "
We raised our voice at the same time.
At the end of the illuminated road you can see the entrance to the town, where the members of the Knights of Heavy Wear, led by Mr. Gagan and Mr. Ellie and Mr. Farzort...... plus you can see a lot of people from the town.
Asna and I looked at each other and put our strength into pulling the carriage.
"Ha... Ha... Mi, y'all..."
Mr. Gagan comes up to us scratching his head when the words didn't quite come out.
"Sorry...... I fell apart. Sorry I couldn't keep my mouth shut."
"Yeah...... thank you, Mr. Gagan"
"Because thanks to you I was able to talk to your mother...... I'm glad you're not going to go silently. So...... thank you"
"Well... good for you"
"Pfft! I don't know... you remind me of that time"
"Uh... sure. This was also the case when Lord and Levy traveled. Even the weather."
That's what Mr. Gagan and Mr. Ellie laugh at each other for.
The morning sun was completely clear and the beautiful morning sun was coming out of the horizon.
"Mr. Lord's...?
"Oh. We all dropped them off then, too. Apologize and... thank you."
The people in the town who were around start saying that to each other.
Oh well... I'm so glad.
"Lord Tia, Lord Asuna... it's a horse of promise. They'll take it."
That's what Mr. Farzolt said and brought the horse before us.
Beautiful white fur, a very fine horse...
"Ko, is this child spare?
"Hehe...... well let's just make that up. Still a young but good horse. His first name is Atrion. I want you to take care of it. Don't worry about the ist. This fur zolt... I swear I will risk my life to protect it"
"... thank you. I'll take care of it!
"Thank you, Mr. Farzolt. Nice to meet you...... Atrion"
"Brrrrrr!"
While the crew were connecting the Atrion to the carriage, one voice after another was heard from the people of the town.
"Be careful, both of you!
"I'm gonna miss you..."
"Come back for dinner! Service… soda."
"Come back again. This is the home of two."
Everyone's words are delightful and I'm about to cry again.
Before I got here, I felt anxious, but that went somewhere the minute I got to town.
Because everyone accepted us right away... so me and your mother... all we can do is thank you.
"All right, that's it. Come on, get in. Let's teach you how to maneuver lightly. The Atrion is smart, so fine. You'll get used to it soon."
"Ha! Thank you!
I'll teach you how to do it and get out of the town entrance.
The meadows lit up in the morning sun glowed golden, and that lasted all the way ahead.
"Beautiful..."
"Really... Mr. Lord is way ahead of us..."
"Yeah......"
"" "" "" Asuna! Tia! Careful!!
Inspired by what we hear from behind, we ride ourselves out of the carriage and look back.
Everyone was smiling and waving at me.
So we smile and wave back.
"Thanks, guys! Thanks to all of us... we... have the pleasure of living... Gu Gu... please mother...!
I knew it wouldn't work......
Only today... only now...
"Next time I will...... I won't let you worry! So...... Ugh...... smiling back again too bad!
Asuna was crying too.
Tears come up every time I look back.
But it's not because I'm sad.
Everyone's feelings...... because I was happy.
"" "." "Come on!
"" If you come!!
We wipe our blurry vision with our sleeves and face straight ahead.
We got a chase from behind, and our journey just... started.
