Outaishihi ni Nante Naritakunai!!

"--I 'm happy to say that, but I've made up my mind for it." I hope you'll listen to me. ”

Face to face with Freed. Looks like we have something important to tell you. Fried answered confusedly.

"... All right, if you want to do that, that's fine."

“Yes, thank you.”

Theon stretches his spine and exhales as if distracting tension. Then he pondered his eyes for the first time, and opened his mouth to wipe out his astray.

“Everything I'm going to tell you is true. I swear I'm not lying."

Theon?

"If you think it's a lie after listening to the story, you can always cut it off. First of all, you have to believe that I'm serious.”

It made me look weird in the disturbing way of cutting out. Friedo nodded with an eyebrow.

"Okay, let's hear it."

Thank you very much.

Zion, who thanked him, said with a distant glance.

"... honestly, I didn't mean to tell you this story. I still don't want to talk about it. I wanted to be a part of you guys who wanted to work in this country for as long as possible. And in order to do that, I didn't have to let you know, I just knew it was intrusive.”

"...... Theon?"

What are you going to talk about?

At least it's not a light story. 'Cause what you're saying is too disturbing.

In the tense air, Theon continued to talk quietly.

"-That's what I said earlier. A witch named Meissa appeared before me."

"Eh...!?"

Too unexpected a name jumped out of Zion's mouth, and a voice came out unexpectedly.

Maisa was one of the same witches as Mr. Derris and was commonly known as the Knotting Witch.

Me and Friedo are also acquainted, and we first met in our engagement to Friedo.

I met him as a fortune teller on a date with him in town, and recently had an accidental reunion at Derris's house after getting married.

Mei, is Mei Sa-san a witch of knots?

First, we need to make sure that Maeza is the girl I know.

Thinking so, I asked Theon. After hearing my words, Theon blinked his eyes and looked strange.

"Yes, that's right... perhaps your Majesty knows the witch Meisa?"

"Ah, uh..."

How should I respond? For a moment, I was troubled, but Freed answered.

"Before I got married, when we were out of town, I ran into each other. She looked like an astrologer."

Oh, that's right.

Shake your head vertically many times.

"I see, did you?" This is my second encounter. ”

Listening to him, Theon nodded convincedly. And you remind me of something.

“The first time I saw her was in Talim. The day she was taken to Talim's castle, she suddenly appeared just like today. And he told me," Go to Wilhelm. "Honestly, I didn't know what it meant. But I couldn't forget it.”

Theon talks about his encounter with Maeza. Freed sandwiched his mouth.

"Wait, Theon. You said you were taken to the Tarim Castle, right?"

"Yes, I'm not from that country." You know that, too, His Highness Friedrich? "

Yeah.

Freed nods with a stiff face.

And Zion's forehead had no scars worthy of a man of Tarim, nor did he say, He is not a man of Tarim. That said, no matter where he was asked where he came from, he laughed and praised.

Knowing that the answer was "I can't answer because I'm from another world", I felt complicated, but I think Theon was right to choose to keep his mouth shut.

I can't help thinking that you're from another world.

Even I am telling you that Freed is the only one who is born from another world.

And even when I talked to Friedo, I was quite nervous and anxious. I knew he would believe me, but I was afraid of what I would do if I didn't.

In the end, it was sad, and Friede believed my story without any doubt, but he also knew very well that ordinary people could not do it. So I couldn't believe Theon's next words.

"I'm not a human being in this world. I came from a place called the Otherworld. So I guess you're right to call yourself an alien.”

"Eh......"

That's not what you're saying.

Xiong, who told me that he was from another world, had sharp eyes.

Unlike me, who is too surprised to say anything, Fried deals with him in a calm manner.

He knows from my story that Theon is a transfer. So I guess I wasn't surprised... no, even if I usually knew, I think I'd be a little upset if I confessed.

I think that Freed, who can accept it as a matter of course, is a person with a deep sense of self-satisfaction, or in many ways, he is an amazing person. I'm still in chaos.

I stare at my husband thinking that this is the King's vessel. Freed narrowed his eyes gently when he noticed my gaze. But I quickly squeezed my expression and headed for Theon.

"Did you say alien?" Specifically, what do you mean by "alien"? "

"... I use it in the sense that I'm a Gentile from a different world than this one."

"I see. It's a different world." I can't imagine it, but I've been able to get here from such a place. How? "

Freed to repeat the question. It seemed that Zion could not hide his confusion from him.

"... um, don't you doubt it?"

Doubt?

Yes.

Freed's face was that he didn't know what he was being told. But as far as I'm concerned, I understand Theon's feelings better.

Because I don't usually think that people will suddenly say, "I'm from another world," and be convinced that it is. Moreover, Fried's attitude is not to make a fool of Theon, but clearly shows that he accepts what he says as the truth. I don't think I can think of anything from Theon.

But Friedo said it in a natural tone.

"I don't know, but you told me." I'm going to tell you the truth. "

"Oh, that's right, but I didn't think it would be so easy to accept. I was prepared to get out of here if I had to stand up for my stupid story, or if the worst man ever said anything..."

It tells me that I really thought that from the way I said it while I fell down on my face.

For my part, I'm only curious about what it means for Theon to go so far and tell us that he's an 'alien'.

Because a smart man like Theon can't say his secret without a reason.

Unexpressible anxiety strikes me.

Contrary to my silence, Freed responded earnestly to Theon's words.

“You can't possibly think that. No matter how sudden the story, if you're telling the truth, I believe it. I don't know how long I've known you, but I know I'm a trustworthy person."

"... thank you very much"

Zion thanked her with a surprise. He smiled as if to make a mockery of himself.

"By the way, I couldn't hear it in Tarim."

"In Tarim, he was an army master, wasn't he? I don't think I can trust the army if I don't trust them.”

"They were holding Lena hostage." I worked as a military teacher in that country on the condition that Lena was free of slavery. It's impossible to build trust in such a relationship. They were always looking out for me, the stranger. "
