Re:Zero Kara Hajimeru Isekai Seikatsu (WN)

Chapter 7: 10 "The People of Shdrak"

A relentless and arrogant smile - directed over the mask, Subaru breathes quietly.

This miserable man must have shown Subaru the way and given up that knife when he broke off with the meadow and Rem.I couldn't tell because of the mask, but I remembered the voice and attitude.The fact that they know Subaru's name is proof of that.

――――

In the wooden cage, the dirt was laid on the peeled ground, and instead of limbs, it seems that the fate of the subaru in a state of total rupture continues uninterrupted.

Todd and the Imperial Soldiers went into the woods to lure the beasts into his own mischief and try to escape by closing the gap that would allow them to be attacked -

"Then, I...."

"I heard you trapped me wandering through the woods.There was a human trap to catch the beast, and the settlers were making noise. "

"A trap, a settlement...?"

The masked man explains, and Subaru waves his painful head and turns his consciousness outside the cage.

The wooden cage holding Subaru was a much worse alternative to the iron one seen at the Imperial soldier's position.Simple or looks like it was made with penetration.

Outside the cage, what is visible is a flock of tall trees and the land that was cut open - is the impression of Subaru that the "Sanctuary" settlement is close?

The Sanctuary was also a settlement built in a deep forest called the Cremaldi Forest.However, unlike the Sanctuary, where houses and churches were built even in the woods, this settlement is a log house in a good way and a primitive dwelling in a bad way.

It seemed lucky to leave tea cloudy in such a way as to call it a natural school.

What is even more important to Subaru is not the poverty of the settlement, but who lives in it.

I mean...

"--The People of Shdrak?"

"Oh, did you know?Well, seeing your ugly presence, you must have borne the hardship in just one day.Have you found the stray woman? "

"... ah, thanks to you."

Subaru breathed deeply into the masked man who heard Subaru murmuring and asked.

A masked man who can't afford to break his attitude, but he's also in a cage like Subaru.Unless he is a key figure in the settlement and has a peculiar hobby of going into cages with his captive opponent, his position will be the same as that of Subaru.

It has just become an Empire position, but Subaru has also been taken prisoner here.

However, that was not the only point.

"--Are you taking care of your shoulders and back wounds?"

You can see that it has stopped bleeding from touching your shoulders and back and tightening tightly.The irritating smell that touched my nose was similar to that of the chemical liquid such as disinfectant liquid.

The masked man snorted to the question of Subaru.

"If I hadn't taken care of him, I wouldn't have died.They must have been in trouble with you.Like me, I wonder what's the right answer. "

"Where can you afford that..."

"Forcefully, from the soul.How long are you going to expose yourself to this ugliness, Natsuki Subaru? "

"Extra..."

When I tried to say thank you, I chewed my back teeth into the pain of the wound.

At a minimum, care is meant to keep Subaru from dying, not to close wounds rapidly or relieve pain.The environment is worse than what we received in the Empire's position.

Yes, Subaru is aware of the Empire's position.

There was a reason for the Empire's position to return as soon as possible.

"Shit... how long has it been since I was brought here!?"

"- Yeah, like, two hours.I'll tell you what, I'll give you plenty of warmth.If you don't think so, wake me up sooner... "

"Why didn't you wake me up earlier!"

――――

The masked man narrowed his eyes to Subaru, who complained about the trembling knees on the ground.

It's a lie from him.The wounded and dying Subaru was transported to bed for two hours, probably because he decided it was necessary to rest.

Afterwards, if the crime of stepping on Subaru's head is unbearable, he can also be said to have a volatile humanity. But then...

"I wish you'd reached the limit of patience sooner."

"This is strange.Do you know what you're talking about?That's what you're saying, you should've let me step on your head sooner. "

"Oh, yeah! What else... cum, cum...?"

With irrational reasoning, Subaru's vision flashes red.

Though it hurts all over the body, it hurts particularly hard with a newly born stab wound on the back and around the scapula - and finally with Todd's knife shot at the escaping Subaru.

In retrospect, the stabbed knife was given to the masked man in front of him, and it is all causal to reunite with him with his wound.

Anyway...

"I left Lem at the Imperial position... and Lem told me not to come back before the Imperial soldiers who hit the Beast in the woods returned to their position..."

We don't have time for Todd and his men to clear the woods, return to their positions, and finish their reports.

When the serpents broke the line, Jamal and the others naturally prioritized dealing with the Beast.But only Todd gave priority to killing Subaru.

Probably Todd thinks it was Subaru who attracted the Beast.And on that spot, Todd tried to make sure Subaru didn't call for a second one.That moment of judgment and execution cannot be diminished, and must not be diminished.

I would like to emphasize the thinness of our relationship with the lemurs and impress that we cannot get information about Subaru -

"If we can't prove it, we can torture him for now."

That kind of fear exists in the Volachian Empire, including Todd.

Subaru must return to salvation in order not to do so.

And yet...

"In this place....!"

"- I see. I guess that's the woman you were looking for, Lem.After you broke up with me, I heard you had a lot of trouble.An Imperial soldier outside the woods? "

"Oh, yeah! I was caught!Then I hit a play to escape... but Lem couldn't bring me. So..... "

"You're desperate. It makes sense. I thought it was a familiar look for prisoners."

Who's the prisoner of war?

Isn't it the same with masked men who are caught?

Though he is a valued opponent, Subaru is likely to raise his anger because he can't afford it.However, some notices hindered the subaru's light lifting.

――――

Focusing on selling words, buying words, and talking to masked men, Subaru felt a different kind of gaze piercing his side.

Turning around, I saw two lights peeking inside from outside the cage through the gap in the lattice.Slowly tie the statue and you'll see it's green eyes.

And the LORD of his eyes twinkled his eyes as the sight of Subaru turned toward him.

"Ah, I noticed Wu."

"Nah...."

Tell me, Kat.

That's how the Lord of the Binoculars leaves the lattice.Subaru panicked and said, "Wait!I tried to stop it, but I couldn't make it.

By the time Subaru jumped into the lattice, the opponent left the scene and ran away without leaving us alone.

"That was....."

"Daughter of the 'People of Shdrak'.You must be curious.Even when I was alone, I came several times and looked inside.Show me your face, take off your mask and keep quiet.... "

――――

He seemed dissatisfied with the peeker's attitude, and the masked man blurred while putting his arms together.

Subaru couldn't afford to beat him with hate and the stupidity.Subaru's consciousness was taken away from him by the young girl.

She was a teenage, brown-skinned girl.

Wrapped in white clothes and dressed in exposed clothing that is easy to move, it is a costume adapted to these subtropical atmospheres.

Perhaps it is because of the dyeing of the special color of the hair that became peachy just beyond the tip of the hair close to the breast.The base of the hair is black, which coincides with Todd's explanation that the "people of Shdrak" are black.

But more than that, the girl's appearance shocked Subaru, not because of the specificity of her figure, but because it was not the first time she saw it.

"--Me."

The memory of Subaru claims to be the girl she killed.

That girl was the one who shot Subaru in the back with a poison arrow and killed him.

The girl was staring at Subaru with her hateful wet eyes, fleeing the burning land of the dense forest because of Subaru's inaction.

Points and dots were connected in Subaru.

There was no other girl watching Subaru with a hateful expression.--That was revenge for burning and killing my land and my people.

"What's the matter, you've grown up like you were bathed in water?"

"A-ah"

There is a man's voice on the back of Subaru, who was chewing on his lips, pressing his forehead against the wooden lattice.

The masked man is sitting in the first position and staring at Subaru, whose emotional disturbance is intense.The eyes were terrible and uncomfortable, and Subaru strayed from him.

"He's an elusive man. Either way, don't scream.It's a lot of trouble to keep quiet here.Waste of health and energy. I don't have to scream... "

"Don't you have to shout...?"

"--I 'm coming from the other side to talk to you."

So following the man who snapped his jaw, Subaru looked back and opened his eyes.

Slowly, it was the flame - the light of the pine - that illuminated the dim vision.Multiple shadows of Matsuaki appeared, and they came towards the cage where the Subaru were.

Standing at the forefront is a full-length woman with a strong body that has been trained.Originally, a woman with her hair dyed black and red had a white pattern painted on her brown face and body, and had very powerful green eyes.

Behind her is the girl who hides behind.It was a crowd of about a dozen, all of them women.

――――

However, Subaru is unexpectedly pressured by the feeling of pressure.

Unlike the Knights of the Kingdom of Lugnica and the soldiers of the Volachian Empire I saw earlier, the wild atmosphere of the group was as beautiful as a group of beasts that were instinctively led.

It's not logic, it's an impression of a group created with instincts at its core.

Subaru, who had such an impression of their walk, stood in front of the cage containing Subaru, and the women, the people of Shdrak, looked at the two men in the cage.

And then...

"Looks like you're awake. --Who the hell are you?"

And I asked Subaru and the masked man together.

△▼△▼△▼△

- Who are you?

It's a story I hear a lot about, but it's a kind of question that I don't really ask.

This is not what happens in real life when you are questioned about who you are.Both the listener and the listener may say something other than a profession where they have to ask questions like that, or a word that has nothing to do with life.

In that sense, it is not a familiar question for Subaru.

However, I can still remember clearly when I first heard it in my life.

Who Subaru is and what he wants.

For the first time in my life, I asked Subaru about it because it was nothing more than a question from Lem, who questioned the identity of Subaru in the Mansion.

"Not you, you guys...?"

With such memories in mind, Subaru puts a question mark on the question.

Though placed in the same cell, the relationship between Subaru and the masked man is weak.So it's convenient to put him in the same cell, and Subaru's involvement is equal to zero.

Isn't it a rough idea to treat people in the same position?

"Don't get caught in a boring place.I told them that you and I knew each other.Asking is just the reason. "

"Pussy... huh! That's not all I know!?"

"I'm not lying.You and I both know each other when we look at each other.What more do you need to call someone you know? "

"Me, a fucked up argument....."

It was too intense a talk, but Subaru remembered that intense argument.

That's one of the people I know, someone who can swing this logic to Subaru and others.

I wondered if there were many of these great people, but the head of Subaru was so thin.

"Hey, what are you talking about there, Le. Answer the question b"

"Uh, uh, my name is Natsuki Subaru.As you can see, pathetic, miserable, run-down lost!And the guy in the back... eh? "

"Abel."

"Yes, Abel! A masked, masked, hidden face, and an arrogant disgusting character, but there are places where you can give a knife to a lost opponent. Playboy who has made many girls cry because of the gap brought about by his unexpected nature, please introduce yourself there!"

"Ooh...? I'm Miserda..."

The momentum of the folding Subaru swallows Miserda, the leading woman.

If they could afford to see each other well, they would find very precise words that would describe the atmosphere of Mizelda and other women. ― ― Amazones .

There are many women, they have a strong body that has been forged, and some paint the body that matches the image of tribes and minorities, some carry bows, and so on.

The 'people of Shdrak' is no different from the Amazones that Subaru recognizes.

"Whatever, it's a surprising fact that the masked man's name turned out to be Abel...."

――――

"Now it's behind us!Listen, Mizelda, and Shdrak! "

Masked Man - Abel's mention was left behind, and Subaru shouted to the gathered women.

Looks like they're not going to kill Subaru without asking.I can tell from the fact that you are taking care of me, and from the fact that you showed me your attitude to listen to me.

Then you may understand if you discuss it sincerely and sincerely.

"As you may know, an Imperial soldier is building a position outside this forest.There's my precious girl in there, and it's dangerous if we don't get back now!So let me go! "

――――

"Then the soldiers are aiming for the 'people of Shdrak'.I said we should talk about it, but worst of all, we're ready to fight.If that's the case, I'll.... "

Subaru shut his mouth as he said that he could create a place for discussion.

Sure enough, there may not be a fight between the Imperial Soldiers and the people of Shdrak, but it will no longer be possible for Subaru to guide it.

By Todd's knowledge, Subaru trapped them in a beast trap.You can't be trusted, and it's too good to expect it.

Subaru clearly weighed Lem and Todd.

And he chose to do them harm to help Lem.You cannot escape responsibility for that choice.

"Sorry, I will correct what I just said.It is true that the soldiers are targeting everyone in Shdrak.There are quite a few people standing up, so even if you fight.... "

"--Are we losing?"

"Ah...."

There is no denying the disadvantage in terms of quantity and maneuverability.

Intercepted Subaru who tried to convey this, Mizelda shouted quietly.Having heard the reaction, Subaru understands that he chose the wrong word.

The 'people of Shdrak' are probably a hunting nation.

For those who brush their arms and constantly improve their abilities, the way to persuade them to lose if they fight was the theory that mines should not be used.

"I know the Volakian soldiers are coming.But there's an old deal between them and us.Let's not have a fight. "

"--No, wait! I don't know about that promise, but they're serious about you...."

Fuck you!

─!

Subaru, who was trying to congest, was struck by a wooden lattice and turned over.Mizelda punched her fist in the lattice and was angry with her eyes.

This is also a mistake in Subaru's choice of words.

Just as pride in battle, old promises and things are important substitutes for them.

Subaru stepped on it unconsciously and recklessly.

"The Volakian soldiers should train to move their troops outside the forest.What I've done over and over. "

"Training to move a squad... military exercises?"

Mizelda frowned on Subaru's words as if they were unfamiliar words.However, Subaru gradually saw the full extent of the trap set by the Volakia side.

It is common for Volakian soldiers to set up positions around this dense forest in the name of military manoeuvres.The people of Shdrak are no longer accustomed to it.

In the name of their familiarity, the Volakian army surrounds the dense forest of Badheim and is ready to attack the people of Shdrak at once.

If you're worried...

"Why do we have to target these people so far?"

Of course, there is no doubt that the people of Shdrak are a powerful tribe, starting with Mizelda, who is standing in front of us.I can hear it from a full sense of hegemony.

But Subaru has no idea why we have to go out of our way to send an army and surround the woods to attack them.

As it still is, they did not seem willing to leave the forest.They live and live here.

And yet...

"Neither Natsuki Subaru nor Abel is telling the truth.Then it won't resonate with us. "

"Ah, that's not true."

――――

Mizelda shakes her head loosely and announces the end of the discussion.

No other Shdrak people dispute her ruthless decision.Apparently, the leading Mizelda is here or the head of the settlement.

Following her decision, the people of Shdrak turn their backs on Subaru's appeal and decide to dismiss it.

Stay on the back of a crowd that is far away with a pine light.

"Wait! I'm not lying, I'm not lying!Guys, look out! Promises are... promises are broken!Everyone and Lem are in danger! "

Desperate, Subaru complains.

But the legs of the people of Shdrak, who have already obtained the decision of their chief, will not stop.The only thing that bothered Subaru was the little girl, but it wasn't enough to stop her.

Nobody listened to Subaru whispering his voice and spitting out bloody sputum.

"Huh... chick, come on. Why is this always happening...?!"

On the spot, Subaru smashes his forehead against the lattice and mourns so.

My right hand has a shoulder and my left hand has a finger, both of which are broken, so I can't hit the cell eight times.It was a time when I couldn't use my cheeks because it didn't help me to create a full body.

Then what value does Natsuki Subaru have left?

"... only the bad thing about giving up and being smart."

Tasting the feeling of despair that darkens in front of her, Subaru resolutely refuses to give up and decides to fight with his teeth tied somehow.

Subaru would have decided his limits on his own.

However, looking back at my past, it wasn't easy for me to walk, and now Subaru is just a little different.

I gave up a little worse than before.It is a sure light that illuminates the dark night path.

"It's been a long, long time since we had this conversation."

――――

And to Subaru, who began to plot how to create a gap by clinging to the branch that became the lattice of the prison, Abel's mockery and deliberate insult arrived.

I'm not angry, but I can't say it back.In fact, Subaru stumbled through his opponent's mines and failed the negotiations.I don't think so. I'm in the middle of nowhere.

But...

"If I were different, you would have been different.I told you in the first place, right?Don't go into the woods because there's a dangerous guy. "

That's right. That opinion served as a guide.Thank you. "

"Even if I tell you, you're caught.I'm full of helplessness.... shit, is it loose somewhere? "

I try to hit my whole body, but I don't see any holes in the immediate wooden jail.Each one of the log-like lattices penetrated deeply into the ground, and the construction was so robust that it was thought that heavy machinery had been used.

Of course, more than there is no heavy equipment in this world, it is human hands who made it.Was it done by a crowd, or was it as powerful as Emilia or Garfield?

"How dare you do this in a village full of women...."

"Don't underestimate the people of Shdrak.These are the descendants of the warring gods who have lived in this forest for hundreds of years as female descendants.I don't need it except when I have more children, such as a man.It's customary for the man to come from the rest of the world. "

"You're such an amazon...Hey, we're not getting caught. "

Used as a tool to catch men and make them spit out their children.

Such ideas and ideas have existed in mountainous cold villages since ancient times.Not to mention, this was an exotic, possible story in a different world where the common sense of Subaru was not common.

But Abel laughed with his nose at the words of Subaru.

"Rest assured, they will choose their children.--Only filth is born from the children of those who lied and lied and tried to plot against themselves.Such a seed would be a wish. "

"... lies and lies"

Following Abel's words, Subaru cursed the awkwardness of his explanation.

The people of Mizelda and other Shdraks could not believe that, although they were in a hurry, the poor assembly of Subaru's explanation was manifested.

Persuasion with sincerity and desperation is nothing different from rude outrage if you do not understand the other person's manners and place of pride.It didn't change.

"But I'm not lying.Empire soldiers are targeting the people of Shdrak. And.... "

Besides?

"They're the last resort... no, they're not.As a first step, set fire. "

For the first time, Abel sighed slightly at Subaru's remarks.

Fire in the woods, an event that Todd learned about the existence of beasts lurking in the woods.Last time, just hearing about Subaru, the Imperial Army chose to burn out the Badheim jungle.

If we had actually confirmed its existence, it would be inevitable that the dense forest would burn this time.

"... unless Todd and the others are all destroyed."

At the time of choosing to defeat the beast, the possibility has also been fully considered.

A manoeuvre to bring in a potentially dead enemy is no different than indirect murder.Subaru knew about it, he ran a maneuver, and there might actually be a dead man out there.

With that in mind, a heavy mass occurs in the back of your chest and your heart hurts like a clog.

But it's a lifetime of challenging and guilty feelings about the murder, and there's something else to focus on - Todd and the others will not be wiped out.

――――

About twenty people and lack of experience in Warcraft combat.

However, when combined with Todd's judgment and Jamal's unexpected aggressiveness, it is impossible to expect that one of the serpents has destroyed Todd's men.

Naturally, Todd should survive, retreat from the woods, and return to his position.

Returning to their positions, Todd reports Subaru's betrayal and the presence of the Beast.In some cases, it was possible to conclude that the Shdrak people had acted hostly, while still believing that Subaru was a Shdrak people.

Naturally, the Imperial soldiers did not hesitate to set fire to the woods to minimize military damage, as they did last time.The people of Shdrak will be burned.

"I see, your eyes..."

"No...."

Abel mentions Subaru's gaze as he thinks so.Though it was Subaru who quickly lost sight, it was Abel's end that came to mind.

Perhaps this is how Abel was captured by the people of Shdrak last time, but if he burned the forest, he would have burned it with him.

It is hard to believe that the people of Shdrak did everything in their power to survive that fire.In the worst case scenario, he could escape and burn himself to death.

If so...

"The people of Shdrak and Abel are like I killed them."

I do not want my life, nor Lem, nor the people of Abel or Shdrak to die.

That's why Subaru has to stand up and find a way out.

"Don't you realize it's useless?Not so dumb as to leave room for a wounded body to escape with your help.Why do you go so far for the sake of women? "

Still biting the tree, Abel said to Subaru, who continued to resist diligently.

But the words set Subaru on fire.

"It's not a word for me that she's a girl.Where can I get a replacement?Rem is the only rem. "

――――

"You're the only one who's getting pissed off about what I do.I don't know why I'm here, but I just got caught and it's over? "

When I first saw him, Abel was wearing a cloak of "Hidden" and looked as if he had come into the woods for some purpose.Otherwise, according to Todd, he gives away a fine dagger from the Emperor to others.

It doesn't make any sense, it's hard to think about being here, and I can't believe it.

"What are you doing sitting here in the cold dirt?"

I was just waiting for the plane.

Abel answered Subaru's question with a terribly quiet voice.

It also sounds like something provocative up until now, or something spilling out of Abel's heart that mocked Subaru and changed his mind.

"Waiting for the plane? Opportunity? Opportunity?What chance..... "

"I don't know what your" Chansu "is, but I've been waiting for you to prepare the board.Until it was ready, I stood by and said that the extra color would mix if I put my hand in it.If it's true, I thought it would be true after people outside the woods moved.... "

――――

"If they're going to burn the woods, they won't be scratching their seats forever."

That said, Abel took off his arm and slowly stood up on the spot.

Subaru is stiff when he opens his eyes to his slender appearance and words.

"What's the matter, that stupid side?It would be disrespectful to point it at me. "

"Fu, I don't know if it's disrespectful... but do you believe me?Because the people of Shdrak..... "

"I didn't believe you. They defiled their pride and made useless old promises about their posterity.It's a failure to negotiate for future generations. "

"Ugh...."

Unfortunately, I am overwhelmed by Abel's assessment because I am conscious that I have no points to defend.

And Abel continued to say, "But."Then, looking up at Subaru, Abel looked over the mask -

"I am not a Shdrak people.Their pride, their precious promises, and so on.All you need is the facts you've brought, not the lies. "

"... what if I'm lying?"

"Let's decide. - Pay with your life."

The word had a weight that distinguished it from the one that tells the story of "death" in play.

Abel is serious and says that if Subaru's actions pass, he will make amends with "death."This is an occasion where real readiness is questioned, never play or play.

Feeling that, Subaru was naturally correct.

You can only stop fighting the cage and Subaru faces Abel directly in front of you.Looking at the black eyes of Subaru, Abel's eyes became more intimidating.

"Answer with all your heart, Natsuki Subaru.Are you prepared to sacrifice everything for what you want to save? "

――――

Ask questions straight, and don't hesitate or lie.

There is no life if you interweave falsehoods here and answer.Yes, the power to convince Subaru was in the voice of a man named Abel.

Subaru accepts Abel's inquiry with his heart.

I wonder if you're prepared to sacrifice anything else to save everything you want.

If you answer that question,

"- I'm not ready for that."

――――

"I'm the only one who can offer it.--That's all I can bet on. "

Instead of stabbing her right arm, she put her left hand with a broken finger on her chest, and Subaru answers.

This is Subaru's answer to Abel's question, which is true and false.

I was told to sacrifice everything, and I can't accept it.

To do so, there are too many dazzling things in this world that are important to Subaru.

So...

"I'll give you an honest answer. You mischievous clown."

――――

"But you didn't lie.Then I won't burn it. "

When I heard the answer, I realized that Subaru had saved his life when Abel said so.

Suddenly, a cold sweat overflowed his body, and Subaru understood that Abel was in control of his life.

Abel is by no means an extraordinarily powerful man, as previously assessed when encountered in the meadows.

Compared to the strongmen that Subaru has seen or dealt with, he has the power not to leave the realm of ordinary people.But still, I felt Subaru had picked up his life.

The power is different from the power of the arm and sword, but Abel has it.

"Well, then, the story is quick. - That's my daughter."

"Ukyahhh!?"

And Abel called someone by surprise, leaving Subaru sweating at the cost of his life.As soon as he reacts to the sound, a small scream rises from the shadow.

As Subaru turned to surprise, there was a girl staring at us from the shade of the tree, some distance from the cage, ahead of Abel's gaze.

The girl who dyed her hair peachy tried to run away in haste with the eyes of the Subaru people.

"Running away will hurt the plane, daughter.I don't think that's your intention. "

"Uhh...."

In Abel's words, the girl moans small.Then she walked up to me with a horrible look on her face.

And "Wu, Wu, Wu...", trembled his lips hesitantly,

"I don't listen to men anymore, Te.But Wu doesn't care.Don't worry about you, Le. "

"... me?"

That's what the girl who calls herself Wu pointed at Subaru.The girl nodded to Subaru, whose eyes were rounded, when she noticed the unexpected allegations.

"Earlier, you worked hard. Wu, come on.But I won't listen. "

"Ah...."

"Te, what have you worked so hard for?You have nothing to do with us. "

I don't care why you interfere.

Subaru was stunned for a moment as if he had pointed out the intermediary.However, the girl's words did not aim for such a thing.She is purely questionable.

Why was Subaru desperate for the people of Shdrak besides Subaru himself?

Subaru himself doesn't know the answer.

"... I don't want you to look like that."

――

"I don't want you to feel like you have to stare at your enemies with such hate and turbidity."

A girl who was about to eject her opponent with poison arrows and watch her "death" with hateful eyes.

Subaru's eyes still bear the guilt of the girl's hatred and the intense events that led to that hatred.It's spinning. It's spinning and painful.

Such a thing should not overlap.It should not be repeated.

"Back to Death" has never crossed my mind.

Still, in a world where Subaru loses his life and starts over, if there's a way to get the people involved on a better path,

I think that's what it means for me to work hard.

"... woo, I don't know."

Listening to Subaru's answer doesn't tell the girl the truth.Of course. It just didn't make sense to talk to someone who didn't know 'Back to Death'.

And Subaru doesn't want you to understand that.Even that fact is unnecessary in the life of the girl in front of her.

"- Are you done? I'm sure you and I can't afford a long story."

"... ah, oh, sorry"

Abel scrapes the conversation between Subaru and the girl without much interest.

Then when Abel turned back to the girl, she also felt the same oppression as Subaru earlier, making her little body nervous and looking up at Abel.

"Daughter, I'm not going to talk to you in vain.Did you say Mizelda earlier?Bring that thing.That would be the chief. "

"Me? What are you and me talking about?"

"It's no big deal. I just want to suggest something."

"Suggestions?"

Abel nodded deeply as Subaru and the girl tilted her neck.

Then, even though you can't see through the mask, you make a smile.

"--Tell them that you will receive the" Ritual of Blood Life ".It's the quickest way to convince them. "

And that's what I told him.
