The time will be in the evening.

The two tired and wave soldiers sat side by side in a lateral hole with a view of the outside, behind a hall with the Emperor of the Beast, looking at the sunset and the view of the mountains coloured with oranges.

"You've had your day without a thing."

A wave soldier says as he tosses his feet out onto a steep mountain slope almost close to the cliff, hanging out and rocking.

"Even today at the operations conference... I guess I was. If you were to come, it would be tomorrow morning... noon."

Tired said, pouring tea into the water only.

"Is there no chance you're coming tonight?

"The demon is stronger at night..."

Tired answered as he handed the wave soldiers who asked him a cup of tea poured hot water.

"I see. So it's a direction to avoid the night"

That's when the wave soldiers rinse the tea, I feel signs behind my back.

"Ugh..."

With the usual ringing voice, the Beast Emperor appeared.

"Oh, here comes the big kid. No, I should say a nostalgic cat standing on two legs."

Joking, the wave soldiers stick their fingers up the nose tip of the Beast Emperor. Then the Beast Emperor, like a cat, sticks his nose tip to the finger of the wave soldier, and he himself pokes his finger towards the nose tip of the wave soldier.

"What kind of structure…"

Tired smiles when he sees two people crossing arms and sticking their fingers at each other's nose tips.

"Kuhhh."

Watch the setting sunset and narrow your eyes, and the Beast Emperor rings small.

"That's a comforting time. I'm gonna stain it."

A wave soldier with a gloomy look on his face somewhere, staring at the sunset alongside the Beast Emperor. When I see it, my tiredness turns into a strange face.

"Shizuno said he likes to fight, but he doesn't like this peaceful time right now either?

Wave soldiers who turn to tired and ask.

"I really like the time I spend relaxing like this. It might be a big deal, but I'm happy. They're on their side. But, hey, thanks to the guys fighting over it for a reason, it's gonna be broken soon, too, right?

"The battle is a battle... it's an interesting thing"

Tired answers the enquiring wave soldier.

"I know that. But you're not afraid to fight for your life and think about yourself dying? Don't you hate that you might lose someone close to you?

"I certainly don't like that...... I'm also honest, scared to death. But there's also the aspect that it's fun because it's scary...... You may not understand..."

Thank you. I was tired of seeing the wave soldiers returning to their normal sensibilities and falling into such a mood that my mind was moving away from me.

"Are the wave soldiers... scared?

When tired asked, the wave soldiers took their gaze off tiredness and saw the sunset again.

"It's like I'm scared, I'm not scared... You can die otherwise. There are two things at the same time: the feeling of doing it, and the feeling of not wanting to die. But I was wondering if it would be a good time to stay relaxed. Can't all humans and monsters, all over the world, just relax? I don't know if I should be."

To the enquiry of the wave soldiers, Tired pushes silence. At this point, I felt like I had become completely, impossible to know who I was.

"If you want to fight, you just have to fight between those who like to fight. I come to the guy who wants to relax, and I don't force him into battle."

"I was fighting... and those who wanted peace... took away the fight."

Tired says dissatisfied.

"Oh well. Did I make you feel bad? I'm sorry. But, you know, the relaxing good times right now must be over tomorrow or the day after, right? Someone among the three of us here could be dead. I don't know..."

Hearing the words of the wave soldiers, Tired ashames himself of his childhood, who bent his knob lightly.

"I, too, mourned my fate and the world resented me. I met Shizuno, who was similar to me, and I felt safe because he was similar, and then... the loose ends and sprouts in me disappeared somewhere."

Wave soldiers also noticed the big difference between tiredness and themselves.

"Shizuno and I, it was supposed to be the same, but only I changed. Then I wonder if I'm qualified as a friend of Shizuno's anymore."

"Huh."

Unexpectedly, the Beast Emperor starts to brutally stroke the heads of the wave soldiers as they tinkle.

"Ouch. Ouch. Come on, you're bald. If you're going to stroke me and comfort me, be a little nicer."

"Kuuuuu"

The Beast Emperor also spills a laugh at the wave soldiers who put the hand of the Beast Emperor in laughter.

"Because it's the same... because it's not the same... You know, for that reason, it's not something you can or can't hang out with, is it?

"How do you feel about Shizuno? I've turned your thoughts, your feelings, everything into a denial. Am I not neglected?

"If you don't push or blame me, you won't be neglected."

The answer tired said was a lie.

I don't like the sound of Ayane in my tired brain, but I think of it. Ayane grew up to be a good man exactly the opposite of herself. Therefore tiredness neglected the sound of Ayanami, and became a pattern that did not go away.

(As Ayane does, even if I don't blame her for anything in her mouth, she becomes aware of it on my own... and become neglected)

But I can also speak the truth in front of the current wave soldiers.

"Wavemen, you are... anxious, aren't you? Friendships and bonds are not deliberately confirmed in words... are they? But you can't help but check... you're anxious."

Tired of pointing out, the wave soldier makes a stiff face.

"Uh-huh?

The Beast Emperor peeks into the face of its wave soldiers and raises an astonishing voice.

"Even if you and I made a mistake... this time of year... wouldn't have happened, would it? It was definitely time."

"Ha ha, you're a grandpa with hundreds of years of living in boulder mediums. It sounds good or bad. Ah."

Laughing lightly, the wave soldiers look back and try to head back towards the cave.

"Beast Emperor, your girl, can I hold you too?

He stops on the way, looks back to the Beast Emperor, and the wave soldiers ask.

"Khu ~..."

The Beast Emperor has a flashing look and shakes his neck beside him.

"Eh, that's a kick. You've got so many surroundings."

"For once... do you understand the words"

"Looks like it'll get through somewhat. Not all of them. Or maybe it's just like me, with a weak other heart."

"Uh-huh."

As the Beast Emperor looks at the wave soldiers, with a flashing expression, pointing to the cave, and ringing to complain about something, he waves his hips on the spot to try to imitate intercourse.

"You think I can do it? No, you're not... don't take it personally and push it. Okay, I get it. You're a real asshole."

"Kuh."

Let the Beast Emperor turn toward the tired and shake his cover. Tired smiled as if pointing to the wave soldiers and saying he had no choice.

Eventually the wave soldiers pull into the back of the hall. I take it that you distracted me.

"Really... you're the reincarnation of your head... I've always... missed you."

Where we are alone, Tired approaches the Beast Emperor and speaks.

"Somewhere in my heart I gave up. If it isn't after reincarnation... I wonder if it won't be drawn from the rim of the circle. Unless you die...... I thought I'd never see you again. Yet..., without any foretaste, all of a sudden, I could see you..."

"Ku ~..."

The Beast Emperor strokes his tired head that makes him cry from the middle of nowhere.

When he looked up tired, the Beast Emperor looked down with a gentle smile.

"Over and over again...... I dreamed of it. Over and over again for hundreds of years...... All this time, when I remember your head, I was crying, soaking, angry, resentful, grudging, cursing... Life without a head, destiny, the world..."

Uncomfortable, Tired was crying and hugging him to the Beast Emperor.

A feeling of skin that is so supple and soft that you don't think of it as a man. But its body is soft and hard. Behind the skin and fat, there are tough muscles that are not people's are transmitted with body temperature.

"Kuuuuuu..."

Ringing with a gentle voice, the Beast Emperor also holds back his tired body and strokes his head again.

(Your head is... not so gentle... Even the same soul, another person......)

Seeing the reaction of the Beast Emperor, Tired realizes so.

Whoever he was in love with, whether he was the same soul who had gone through a roundabout reincarnation, was already dead. I will never go around with that head again.

On the other hand, it is an indisputable fact that it is a reunion. Tired bites the joy all over his body.

(This isn't an illusion... is it? Too unrealistic...... It's too abrupt for a reunion... not in a dream... isn't it?

On the other hand, Tired was perplexed by the feeling of his mind floating. This feeling is not only brought from joy. At the same time that I was filled with so much happiness that I wanted to rejoice, there was some ominous feeling in my tired chest.
