Munou To Yobareta Ore, Yottsu No Chikara Wo Eru
Episode 200: This Man
"I'm in this castle too, so if anything happens, call me. Well, I'll see you tomorrow."
"Yes, good night...... Dear Sieg"
"Mmm... see you later"
That's what Master Siege says, turning his back on us and leaving with his hands flickering across his back.
In my eyes...... that back looked terribly lonely.
If I were you, I'd want to fight.
The regret of having the power but not being able to do so... there is more to observe.
Eventually, when his back became invisible, Master Solomon exhaled one and opened his teat.
"Phew... I'll see you soon enough. Damn it. That guy."
"Yep. I lived a long time too, but I thought that one was something else... Ah"
That's right. I forgot.
Master Solomon might know something.
"Um, Master Solomon... this is it..."
"Hmm? Oh, our notebook? What's wrong with that?
"This… for some reason the page doesn't open"
"What? Hey, lend it to me"
Lady Solomon, who received it from me, seemed to have been tried a lot to roll the cover, but the notebook page was still tightly closed and was unlikely to open any way.
"Mm...... hmm!?
"I knew you couldn't, could I? I was able to open it before..."
"What is this... what do you mean...?
Don't you understand, Master Solomon?
Somehow, but there are a few things that come to mind.
I just wish I could figure out the exact thing...
"Hmmm... I guess it has something to do with my current husband's condition..."
"Yeah... I thought maybe that was for sure"
Yes. I can't think of any other reason.
The god "giver" … No, Master Mel could not "see" my magic either.
Like that Fenrill.
So I don't know the details...... think about it in good time and it won't have anything to do with Lord losing his memory.
"Hmm... Levy didn't hear anything from Crown? About this notebook."
"I've only heard a few things quite a while back. But that's just that this notebook… Merle is the one who" delivers the legendary weapon ", and nothing more…"
I didn't even know that God entrusted it to Master Crown until Merle told me.
Now I realize I don't know anything about Mel.
"Oh well... can't I even open this to my husband?
"I don't know...... maybe you should give it a try tomorrow for once. But perhaps..."
Likely not to open.
As I said, I was able to open a notebook before.
That means I can't... I guess that's what I mean.
"... right? And this notebook...... was it Mel? I heard you talk about this before, but you trusted your husband, didn't you? So you don't think she's doing this intentionally."
Indeed......
Instead, Master Mel would try to do something about it the other way around.
"We don't need to get this far in the first place. I can't get it out of my notebook unless we admit it, and most importantly, I can't react to anything other than my husband's voice."
"Really?
"Yeah. For example, I admit to Levy, but I can't get out of my notebook no matter how much Levy calls me. Now the owner of this notebook is determined to be my husband, and I can't respond to calls other than my husband's. I didn't ask anyone, but we all know that."
"I see..."
Sure doesn't seem like we need to go this far then......
No............... oh well.
"A little... If the owner, Lord, is in an unstable state, that's what happens when he loses his memory, like this one, or is manipulated by something, regardless of Mel's will... maybe there's something like a constraint on forcing the notebook to stop functioning. To protect the legendary armor."
"I see... constraint..."
"Yes. As Solomon said, Mel admired Lord. So even Merle himself can't do anything about it… I thought it would be natural for God to assume that the rules he has laid down make him do so"
Master Lord doesn't remember right now.
That means you're in a state where you can't tell who's right and who's wrong.
Assuming I'm a villain targeting the legendary armor, it's not that hard to tell Lord about the lies and make him get the armor out of his notebook.
Also, if you have magic that allows you to manipulate the subject as you wish, you will be able to get the legendary weapon more easily.
Whether they are being manipulated or not, the legendary weapons will be able to judge for themselves, but there may be so much magic in this world that they don't even know they are being manipulated.
In order to prevent such things, if it is determined that the owner's condition is not normal, the notebook will not even be able to be opened... I mean, are the musketeers in a situation where even if they want to lend a hand, including Merle?
Of course it is possible that Master Mel is doing so intentionally......
"Hmm... maybe it's a hit. For now, I'll see you tomorrow."
"Right. Not until Lord wakes up..."
"That's true, too, but Levi has to go to bed, too"
"Ah..."
Speaking of which, I forgot about myself.
"I'll take care of the watch. Resting anyway! Like?"
"... Yes. Thank you...... Dear Solomon"
I'm glad Lord Solomon is here.
If I were alone... things could have gone wrong.
"Mm-hmm. Goodnight then...... Levi."
"Yes...... good night. Dear Solomon."
I bow my head to Master Solomon and enter Lord's sleeping room again.
Master Lord seems to be well asleep.
I used to be pretty sensitive to the sound of things... but that would be better now.
I want you to get some rest.
Because I've been working too hard.
Or, in retrospect, because of me... all sorts of things...
"Ha..."
Oh, you shouldn't.
You shouldn't be sighing.
All right, let's get some sleep today.
As Lady Solomon told me, if I fall, there will be no ex or child.
I leave my body on the couch where Lord once slept, from which I see his face.
"Phew..."
That calm sleeping face cheered me up a little bit.
I'll talk to Lord all day tomorrow.
So that I can remember anything at all... about the days we spent together.
A lot happened...... fun and sad...... all of that.
"Good night...... Dear Lord"
――――――――――――――――――――――
"No, so do it yourself..."
"I'll take care of it. Think of me as your right arm."
Oh, I don't care if they say that...
"No, but... I have my left hand!
"Master Lord is right-handed. You can't do well with your left hand, can you?
That's right...... so shy......
"Besides, this is how you used to eat it, right?
"Yeah!?
Seriously......
What are you doing? I was before I lost my memory...
"Yes, uh"
".................. uh"
When I woke up in the morning, like I'd never smelled before...... I don't know because I don't remember, but it smelled delicious all over the room anyway.
Wake up and look at the room.
Then, on the desk placed in the middle of the room, there was a line of dishes that were too sumptuous for breakfast, beside that desk... there was a woman who named me Levi yesterday.
She laughs so gladly when she realizes I'm awake.
I'm thrilled with that smile.
That's how it is... to this day.
"Hmm...... ugh!?
What... what... this!?
The moment I put it in my mouth, the sweet gravy spreads through my mouth as if it were juicy and chasing. It highlights the aroma of wine. Demigrass sauce touches my tongue and falls through my nose. From among the more unraveled meat, finely chopped onions and shiitake mushrooms appear on my face and enhance each other to blend with it rather than beat the flavor of meat. No, that's not all. This troll tongue and moisture is cheese. Cheese is in it. Or cheese hamburger. I can't wait to get tangled in my mouth. This is God's dish. My mouth is sublime to heaven and now I taste the ultimate bliss... What am I saying?
"What do you think?
"Ha!?
How about that?
It was dying in the afterlife.
Hey, some tears on my own......
"Ugh, too delicious... I've never eaten anything so delicious... ah..."
Seeing Mr. Levy's face with that said, she was smiling somewhat sadly.
Right... you were eating... I'm sure...
"... I'm glad it fits your mouth. There's plenty of them... yes, um."
"... uh"
I don't know why.
But I knew I'd get this guy any more... no...
Only this guy... said I shouldn't let him grieve no matter what... I thought so.
