Having decided to go to the Divine Son, we just keep moving forward on our feet.

Also, I lost about two lives. Although we all had hope that we could make it to the Divine Son safely, reality was still never that sweet.

One of the merchants who followed me died. [M] Still a young merchant who dreamed of the future and decided to follow me with hope. The rest of the deceased were beasts.

We're having less conversation than we were at first.

I don't know what else to do. We stepped out into a dangerous forest with the goal of going to the Divine Son. I am advancing such a pale desire to see you tomorrow. However, I can't find a clue that I can meet the presence of a divine son.

... Will I really be able to meet the Divine Son? Was this choice really the right one? Wouldn't they all die eventually, with hope?

Objectively, I think it's a good thing that only three people are still dead. Because there was a good chance that all of us would be dead by the time we got here. Given that, it's not that bad of a marching situation. Yes, I have told the others.

- But it can be said that no matter when it collapses from the inside, it is not strange that the situation continues.

It is certain that my heart is leaning in the wrong direction, too.

Wouldn't you die like this? Doesn't it work like this? Wasn't it futile to have come this far? Shouldn't we turn back? When I get distracted, those thoughts make up the majority of my mind.

I want to see Run. I just came to a place like this because of the thought, but I wonder if I can see Run. I think so, too. But I need to see Run. I meet Run for whatever it takes. With that in mind, I moved on. [M]

I'm here to see Run, and the Beasts are here to see the Divine Son.

We moved on without turning back and forward in that way.

That's how I saw something strange going on with my legs.

That was translucent and I couldn't see the proper shape. Besides that, they didn't look like anything else. At first, I wondered if I was tired and hallucinating. I was so tired, even despair floated that maybe it was the limit. [M]

But the further I advanced my legs, the more hallucinations began to appear in my eyes.

Is this my hallucination? [M] Such a strange thing that no one else sees. Is that all I am? [M] I felt the same way, but - I realized the presence of moving a little bit, and I came to the opposite idea.

Perhaps this strange sight - is not a sign that the presence of the Divine Son is approaching? I don't know why other than me, but, for example, if this wasn't a hallucination - if a translucent strange being really existed in front of me.

When it comes to being able to create such a strange status quo, isn't it the Divine Son? Or even if he was not a divine son, is there a being that can break the current state of all despair right now?

I had that hope.

Maybe I'm really hallucinating and the hope I have is just a mistake. But it's definitely better to have a little hope than nothing. I was driven by such thoughts.

That's why we move on with our legs.

I know you're worried about me. I also know you're worried that I might have twisted because I can't believe I saw something other people didn't see. I'm not crazy. [M] That will prove it if we get to the Divine Son.

Because I think so, I just pushed my legs together.

More and more, strange beings are showing up. I took the lead in the direction they were headed for. I hope they take me to Shinko. [M] This is a bet. I wish I had a godson ahead of me on my way, but it's also possible that the demon's nest and despair await me on my way.

... If all you're waiting for is despair ahead of you, let's get them out of here, risking my life but following me.

If you move on with that thought - I heard the voice you've always wanted to hear.

"Saddah!? Why are you here?

That was the voice of Run. If I turned my gaze towards you, there was Landono Stuffer, whom I had been chasing.

And the cat beasts who were beside Run rushed out here and saw him cuddling with the cat beasts who followed me.

Look at that, I, uh, won the bet.

I was right to chase that translucent existence as hope. I'm sure if you follow the run, you'll also meet the Divine Son.

At the same time I realized it, I was distracted from relief. And when I realized it, I was unconscious.

- Merchants and hope

(Translucent presence seen only by merchants. With that as his hope he went after him. chasing him with hope, he won the bet)
