Finally, it was the designated day for Maeza and Derris.

The day that Theon returns to Japan.

The night was the most magical, so it was decided to gather at Mr. Derris's house after dinner.

Fried went to work in the morning, as usual, but I was restless and uneasy.

Theon seemed to have done a goodbye, and it was pathetic to see that Lena was depressed. I just said, "It's okay," with a face that doesn't have the strength to speak up.

Do you know that I can't hold on to it? It seemed like I was putting the lid on my feelings very hard.

After Theon returns, if she doesn't recover, we should ask her to return to the island. To my mind, her condition was so depressing and painful.

My brother seemed to be doing as usual, but as Fried says, he's pretty down. When I heard that it was hard to see in the air, I felt like I had confirmed how much my brother liked Theon.

I know his desire is to return to Japan, so I will do my utmost to support him in that direction, but I think it would be a bit, no, quite a shame.

I don't want to tell you, but I know an old friend. I was glad to see that figure, and I was relieved to be in the same country as Wilhelm.

I'm sure Theon will stay in Wilhelm.

When did you realize that you were thinking that way? Hopeful observation is only hope.

Theon returned to Japan today exactly as he wanted.

It is only natural that I want to return to my native land. Especially if you tell me that you've been jumped into another world, I can see how you don't want to miss your chance to go home.

For him, this is another world. It's not my world.

Liddy, it's time to go.

He said after spending the evening in a restless state and finishing dinner with his husband who had finished his work.

The seasons are summer and autumn is deepening. The time when the sun sets is faster and faster, and it is already dark outside. In it, the red full moon shines brightly.

The red moon on Tuesday.

I was surprised that the colour of the moon was completely different from that of Japan - no, it was only when I first recovered my memories of my previous life that I was surprised, and now it seems natural that this is the night of Wilhelm.

The red moon.

The bright red full moon, which would be terrible in Japan, is a matter of course for the people of this world.

I looked away from the moon and looked towards Freed, who called out to me. Both Freed and I were dressed as if we were going out of town. There was a golden sword on his waist, as Maeza had told him.

Cain is the first person to ask you not to come out today.

We're going to Derris, and we're going with Freed.

Although he was a little reluctant, Cain was relatively honest about how he understood the situation.

Today's outing is a secret for everyone. I get angry that I'm going out at night, and I don't want to worry about it. Besides, I wasn't sure what I was going to do.

I want to spend a relaxing evening with you two, so stay away from the room after dinner.

That's what Freed commanded everyone to do.

Are you ready?

Freed spoke to me again and nodded in a small voice. When it comes to preparation, there's nothing I can prepare. I knew that he was talking about preparedness and preparation.

Finally, right?

I didn't ask if it would work.

After all, it was the witches who used magic. Besides, there were all three of them. I knew I couldn't and shouldn't suspect them of being able to do it.

“Yeah, I didn't think I was going to get involved, so I'm a little nervous.”

Friedo?

I was surprised to hear the word "nervousness" come out of him, who was always standing up.

"You're kidding."

"It's true. After all, as the witches say, my power seems to be the key." That would be the end of me if I failed. As expected, there's a lot of tension. "

"You said you needed divine power..."

I remembered Maeza's words and nodded.

Maeza-san's power alone can cross the otherworld, but it's a crooked way, not a straight shot. I had to use the Honor Law to get Theon back. And it's my husband who holds the key.

If that were me... yeah, I might just be nervous.

I said to Friedo with great satisfaction.

"It feels like a heavy responsibility and it's tough..."

"It's not like I've been thinking about it that much." I've decided to help. I just hope you can let him go home safely. "

"Yeah, I think so too."

nods to Fried's words.

Ever since he decided to cooperate, he stopped making strange jealous remarks.

Rather, I feel driven by a sense of mission that I must return at all costs.

I'm a good switcher.

"Liddy, hold my hand."

Yeah.

Grasp the hand offered by Freed. From now on, with his returning magic, he will jump close to Mr. Derris' house at once. The place is hard to spot, and I think it's the best way to get around in a way that no one can find.

Here we go.

The magic circle appeared. At the next moment, he was moving to the intended location. There was a place and a time designated in advance for Theon.

Dressed in his usual black colour, Theon seemed to be lost in the dark.

You kept me waiting.

No.

Freed called out to Theon.

Theon was leaving the castle in the morning. Say goodbye to everyone and be gentle.

And I waited alone until nightfall.

I'm sorry for the trouble you've put in.

Fried said negative words to Theon as he lowered his head.

“That's what we decided for ourselves. There's no need for you to apologize."

Yeah. That's right.

I wholeheartedly agreed with his words.

It was our will that brought Theon back. So there is no need for you to apologize.

Let's go.

I thought I'd be in trouble if I got more apologies, so I pulled Freed's hand. Theon didn't say anything more, he followed us.
