"Guh......!

"Hey, don't stop. Move, move."

"Ha, yes!

The courtyard of Celtic Castle.

In that place, surrounded by stone exterior walls and with beautifully mowed lawns, Lord Lord had been taught by Sieg.

Whenever the great sword held by Siege and the ealis gripped by Lord collide, the fine metal noise echoes between the buildings and is sucked into the evening sky, which has become slightly reddish.

I once watched that sight in that village, now with Lord Solomon.

Special training over the past few days seems to have made Lord know how to balance one arm, and now he can unleash a slash without being swayed by a sword.

But it wasn't all good.

Martial arts in general did remain, but what Siege taught me in the past...... because it had been lost with memory.

"Heh...!

Ugh... Master Sieg's kick is on the flank...

That is tight......

"Look, don't forget you don't have a right arm. Always be aware of the right side. Instead, invite them to attack and have enough temper to use them."

"Gee ho...... yes!

Master Lord immediately stood up and waved vigorously at Ialis, who gripped him in his left hand.

No matter how many times they knock you down...... many times.

"Dear Lord! Good luck!

"... ugh! Oh!"

That's all I can do.

But I think Lord's movements have gotten better than just now.

That's all...... I'm a little happy.

"You're jealous."

"... Dear Solomon, I'm out of magic today"

"Hey, because it disappears......!

"Pfft... I'm just kidding"

"... my eyes were serious though?

"Ohh... ha...!

"Ah! Lord!

Lord's body blows with the awesome noise and rolls hard over the lawn.

I rushed right under Lord.

"Are you okay......?

"Oh, oh... it's okay, big length... Yikes...!

"Don't force yourself to move... Dear Sieg!

"Bad, bad... I overdid it right and hard. Well, let's get around here today. It takes time to undo the dull body, and there's nothing you can do in a hurry."

"Yes... again please"

"Ooh, I'll see you tomorrow. Levi, get the load, please. I'll see how the villagers are doing."

"Okay. Can you stand? Dear Lord."

"Yeah...... thanks Levi"

Four days after Master Friedrich was returned to Celtic.

The Greek coalition, which already includes Celtic troops, has the majority of them starting to move towards Olympus.

Dear Adid and the SSS ranks were also supposed to travel to Olympus tomorrow morning.

And... me too.

"... Levi?

"Oh, ha, yes?

"I was confused about something... are you okay?

"... it's okay. Because I was just thinking. Let's go back to your room. The sun will set soon."

So today......

――――――――――――――――――――――

"Phew... Ichi..."

The soap smudges on the newly made wound today.

I knew Mr. Sieg was a great guy.

I really tried it myself... but I couldn't hit one attack after all.

I'm talking about getting that guy to do an archery even before I lost my memory, and then Mr. Sieg recognized me... but I'm sure I worked pretty hard before I lost my memory.

... so I have to work hard too.

Still, it's inconvenient to have only one arm...

It takes time to wash your body, as well as your head.

But I need to get used to it.

The wound is already blocked, and I sometimes try to use my right arm because I have no pain at all.

You look a little sad when you do that in front of Levi......

So I have to show you that you don't have to have a right arm.

That way, it's a little easier to feel...

"Nahhhh!?

Something's on your back!?

Soft...... eh!?

"... sorry to surprise you"

"Les, Levi!? hey what... when!?

Damn, I didn't even notice.

No, more than that......!

"Ha, away... or out...!

Embrace me from my back...... mirror...... naked!

"I don't like it."

"I don't like it!?

"Yes, because I am Lord's right arm. Until now, I've put up with it, but I stopped doing it."

"I stopped!?

"Heh heh... I kind of miss it. It was like this back then."

"Even then!?

Do this even before I lose my memory!?

I knew I was a motherfucker......!

"Yep. That's how Lord panicked then too... he looks so embarrassed. And so am I. I'm a little embarrassed."

"Les, Levi......"

"But..."

Levy says so, touching my right arm with only two arms.

Her face I see over the mirror...... still had some sad look on her face.

"Instead of this right arm, my life is here. So let me take its place. If you say you really don't like it, I won't. But please..."

"... I don't like it"

That...... what is it?

I feel like this has happened before.

Not because I just asked Levi, but more certain... important not to forget...

"Dear Lord... then... forgive me"

"... Yu, forgive me or nothing... I'm glad"

"Ah..."

Levi's hand, which was touching my body, was powered and his eyes moistened.

That's right.

It happened before.

I can't remember... maybe there was.

"... thanks Levi. I owe it to you... to be me. I'm sure..."

"Dear Lord..."

"... but you're still embarrassed"

"... Phew"

"Was it still like this then?

"Yes... I knew Lord would... remain Lord"

"Oh well... good for you"

"Now put your back..."

"Ugh... yes..."

...... I have to take care of it.

Don't let me get mad at you before you lose your memory.

So... tomorrow...

――――――――――――――――――――――

"That's it... and... nice weather"

The next morning, the light of a beautiful day entering through the window was telling me that.

Pack your bags to a minimum and I will carry Master Balmunk on my back.

Mm, it's still heavy.

... naturally I can't talk about it.

"I'll borrow it... Dear Lord"

That's what I say to Lord, who sleeps in bed.

In the end, I couldn't talk.

Because...

"... I will definitely come home"

I'm not going to die.

I will surely return alive, as Lord did.

So this is not a goodbye.

I'm just gonna go out for a little while.

I left my thoughts in the letter.

Lord would surely......

"Levi......"

"Huh!"

Just before I left the room, Lord called me from behind, and my body stops moving regardless of my will.

Eventually I heard the sound of clothes folding, feet on the floor, footsteps approaching right behind me -

"Me too..."

"No!

... No.

Because I knew this would happen.

So... I couldn't tell you.

"Levi......"

"..................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................... But you can't. You always try too hard. I won't even look at my current condition and I'm sure I'll be impotent again. Indeed, you are strong in your present state. But that's only a general strength story. So I apologize for your disrespect. You will not survive this battle."

…………

Long silence.

I don't know what he looks like right now.

But I'm sure... you look so sad.

Just imagine my chest... hurts.

"... I'm sorry. Levi."

"Huh!"

Those words, which were torn apart from silence, jump my heartbeat.

"Why... oh, do you apologize...?

I desperately suppressed my trembling voice and said so at my best.

But this is the path I've decided for myself.

Now I'm the only one who can protect Lord's will... because I'm the only one.

So......!

"Me... I was aware. Levi said he was going to Greece."

"Huh...?

"... somehow. I don't think so."

"Really..."

I was going to try my best to hide it, but to Master Sieg and Lord......

"Yeah... I also kind of know how that feels about going. Maybe... no, I think I said I would definitely go to Greece before I lost my memory. So Levi... he's trying to replace me."
