Chapter III 52: From scratch

- I lost my bet.

It was the weakness that defeated the battle that was supposed to have given it all away that took up the look of the crying Rem and the heart of Subaru beaten by his former words.

If she has a strong dependence on Subaru. Or, Subaru believed. No, I wish.

For once, I was wondering if you would throw away anything and choose yourself.

It was a dreamy dream. It was an idea that occurred to me. And you should have known.

I can't find any value in myself, so I should have come to the choice to escape, but what did I expect?

"Now... it may not be funny, but... you see, if I tried to move it to execution, it must be funny... yeah, it is. So, um..."

The next thing that leaked out of Subaru's mouth, even though it had already been concluded, was a badly given up feminine take.

I can't think of any effective objections to Rem's words. But I don't have to keep saying what I want. Maybe he'll still change his mind.

If you keep talking - I'm sure that's a convenient way to think about it, too.

"... Lem, too, I've thought about it"

And as he stared at Subaru, Rem meditated and murmured so.

She tilted that tidy surface slightly upwards,

"We will arrive in Carraraghi and rent the quarters first. I just want a house to create a foundation for my life, but I can't force myself to think about the money in hand either. Start by finding a way to earn a steady income."

Stand one finger up, she says, to add to the future forecast map of Subaru earlier.

"Fortunately, Rem is educated at about Roswar's rate, so I think it's easy to find some work in Kararagi as well. Subaru-kun could be looking for manual labor or looking after Rem around him."

Laughing small, Rem makes Subaru so tear up what he can't do.

The education of this world is shallow, and it can be said to be the right appreciation for Subaru, who is roundly incompetent when it comes to skill.

"Once your income has stabilized, you should find somewhere a little more decent to live. Subaru has me studying so that I can get another job in the meantime... a year or so until I can actually work. Let Subaru-kun do his best and be independent there sooner"

Surprisingly, her education policy is Spartan.

Occasionally, she sees me studying on Ram's behalf. The way she teaches is kind, but there was no forgiveness for the assignments and the way the problems were raised. I guess it's because of the harshness on me, and it's also the part where I complained and preferred it.

"If you two work together and save some money... maybe you can buy a house. Maybe you can do something at the store. Kararagi is a thriving place in the capital, so I'm sure Subaru-kun's flighty ideas will bring it to life."

A lem that slaps his hand and paints an overly optimistic picture of the future in the sky.

Subaru also seemed to see clearly the sight of her visions.

There, as always, there must be a look of Subaru sweating diligently while he is spoiled and still somewhat responsible for the rem.

I really hope so.

How happy I would be if I worked so hard for her, just for her.

"When the job is on track... well, I'm embarrassed... children, etc. It will be a ghost and a half of a person, so you will surely have an arm white child. Whether you're a boy, a girl, a twin, or a triplet, you'll be a cutie."

Dye your cheeks and shake your head small to the imagination that ran just a little too far ahead.

fingerfold. When she counts the numbers and stops counting where that number has horribly crossed ten,

"I'm sure it's not all fun, and I don't think it's all going to work out so well as I imagined. There may be times when you don't have a boy and all the girls go on and Subaru gets narrow shoulders in the home."

"... rem"

"But even when the kids grow up and treat Subaru-kun like he's in the wrong, Rem is on Subaru-kun's side. In the neighborhood they say famous couple, take your time, spend the same time, grow old..."

"... Rummy"

"I'm sorry about Subaru, but if possible, let Rem pass away first. On the bed, Svalbard held my hand, surrounded by the children and their children, quietly said, 'Rem was happy', so I was dropped off..."

My face, I can't keep it up.

Rem's talked about future prediction map quietly, gently, and hurts Subaru's heart.

"Happily, happily… I can finish my life"

"That's it......"

Lem concludes such a sad, happy future that you want to scratch the depths of your chest, like bouncing, listening and itching.

What remained in Subaru's chest after hearing it was a pitiful passion of sorts that words could not.

My throat trembles. Something heavy sinks in the back of my stomach. My head hurts. Something hot crept up behind my eyes, and I shook my head trying to mislead it,

"Stay there, so... if you think...!

With Subaru, he said he ran away everywhere and everywhere...

But the plea,

"If Subaru laughs and wants that future...... I seriously think Lem could have died that way"

After more grief than Subaru, it still didn't reach her smiling.

Stunned, Svalbard finally understands, staring at the smile until its painful.

No matter how much you take away, you can't overrule Rem's will.

He said he lost the bet so clearly that there was nothing he could do anymore.

――――

Slightly, fatigue struck me like something heavy on my shoulder was pressing me.

Subaru despairs while covering his face with his palms, struggling with the weakness that seems to collapse on the spot as it is, barely the only thing that makes it so.

Rem refused to accompany me.

And that means the means to save her have been interrupted. If we stay aside to protect her, what awaits us is the brutal fate that strikes her on her way to the mansion - and the tragedy that cannot be changed and the trail of brutal fate.

Or so you're just gonna leave Rem and run away on his own?

That would leave me with an invisible anxiety to go ahead, but still only escape the despair that I had no intention of avoiding looming in front of me. Of course, the outcome with respect to the events that occur, whether Subaru is present or not, remains unchanged. It's just a degree of benefit that Subaru doesn't have to look at that fact - if you block your eyes and ears and pretend you don't know it, you don't have to look directly at that reality.

Even at that level of salvation, there is so much to be desired in Subaru today. But I wonder what salvation there is in accepting it alone.

Whether you challenge a battle, sink into a sea of madness, throw it all out and escape, fate will never forgive you.

Then what the hell is Subaru...

"If you can live with Subaru... I'm glad from the bottom of my heart now that Subaru wanted to take Rem to that place where I wanted to escape. I'm glad. - But I can't."

With his hands on his chest, Rem breaks and throws away the ticket to the escape offered by Subaru and still leans down dyeing his cheeks with a sense of purpose.

She knows for herself, not elsewhere, that she will be that accomplishment of the dream story she told just now, running away, running away.

happiness, so affirm that story, but still she denies that the

"'Cause I'm sure right now, if we run away together... I feel like Lem's leaving my favorite Subaru"

――――

What are you saying, Rem?

Relax and lift your face, Subaru looks at her with her dazed eyes.

Rem remained pointing a sad smile at Subaru, still shooting this one through with resolute eyes. She continues to be overwhelmed by the subaru.

"Subaru kun. Tell Rem what happened."

Shake your head. I can't. If I do that, Rem dies.

"If you can't talk, trust me. I'm sure Lem will do something about it."

Shake your head. I can't. If you let me do that, Rem dies.

"... but let's at least go back now? Take your time and think calmly, and you might come up with some ideas."

Shake your head. I can't. If you wait for it, everyone dies.

"I've already worried... I've thought about it. I suffered... so I gave up"

Nobody believes Subaru.

Nobody expects Subaru.

Everyone threw a warning to its shallow stupidity not to do anything to Subaru.

I continued to ignore it, slipped away, looked at the scattered fools, and arrived at the present realm.

That time, the wear of its heart, for Subaru -.

"- It's easy to give up. But"

To the lid, the objection to Subaru's weak words spoken by Rem.

- Akira Mernoha, Canton.

The moment I put it in my ear, there was an unknown shock running all over Subaru's body.

Its overwhelming impact, unspoken as struck by lightning from brain weather, exploded in Subaru's chest, and the burning sensation of pores opening up in his body dominated his entire body.

"Giving up is... easy...?

"Subaru?

"Bullshit, don't do it...... duh!

Subaru's resentful voice, eating and tying his teeth, leaked to Rem, who dwells in his eyes with confusion.

I'm not kidding. Is it easy to give up? Lightly, throw out your purpose, show your back, and run out empty-handed. That's easy, right?

Is there such a stupid story?

"It's so easy to give up!!

Unstoppable depressing emotions burst, and it was spit out on his tongue as it was.

Rem shrugged as he was surprised at the furious Subaru, and the people crossing the streets of the main gate of the king's capital also turned their attention to something about the exasperated appearance of that Subaru.

Ignoring the indifferent gaze of its crowd, Subaru only glanced at the lem standing in front of him,

"Don't think about it, don't think about it, just cut it all off, throw away everything lightly, and that's why you're giving up, 'cause you think so!?

It was a bitter decision. It was the decision that led to tears of blood and the thought that my throat would dry up with screams and still not reach me.

Give it all up, that's the only conclusion if you put it into words, but it's absolutely unacceptable just to take it lightly as to how much sacrifice you've made to get to that conclusion.

"It wasn't easy to give up...! It was much easier to think so, trying to fight, trying to do something about it...! But there's nothing I can do... there's nowhere to go! It's only on the road to giving up...!

The trail of destiny mocks Subaru by blocking all the paths presented.

Whether you're trying or challenging me, standing up to me, working out a plan, trying to entrust it to others, and even trying to escape.

It's no longer possible to pick up everything.

Even those who wanted to help me can tell me how they refused to reach out and still do their best, etc. Who can tell Subaru that it's too soon to give up?

You mean you can go through just the same experience as Subaru, taste just the same pain and predicament as Subaru, see just the same hell as Subaru, and then throw up the same words?

"If you can manage... me, because... me too...!

I really want to do something about it.

He wants to help, he wants to rescue, he seriously thinks he doesn't like being taken away.

But it doesn't arrive. They won't let me. All this too, the daily pile of Subaru so far, is the result of all of that time stripping his fangs.

So Subaru...

"Subaru-kun"

Squeeze out your voice, squeeze out your emotions, and Rem speaks to the nagging Subaru.

Her tinnitus was terrible, and she was bitter about exposing the utter truth, and Subaru can't even look up at her face.

Such a pitiful, unsaveable, defeated loser who couldn't help himself.

"It's easy to give up"

――――

"But"

Rem to repeat the words that made Subaru so exaggerated earlier.

Feeling incredible in her words, Subaru shivers her lips and raises her face.

Why, you don't understand.

Can't she understand Subaru's misery by doing all this?

Such inner depression, dissatisfaction, sentiments like the eight hits,

"- Subaru doesn't look good."

I stared straight into Subaru's black eyes and misted before her, I assure you.

Rem speaks clearly as if he believes so, that it is absolutely right.

"Rem doesn't know how hard Subaru felt or what he's been through so much knowing. I know, I know it's not something I can say lightly."

――――

"But still, even Lem knows something."

――――

"Subaru is someone who can't give up something along the way."

In mourning before his eyes, he throws it all out, and against the man who has just now spoken of giving up, Rem spins his words without shame, without fear, without shaking.

"Rem knows"

――――

"Subaru knows that when you want the future, you can laugh and talk about it."

――――

Rem spins his words with no mockery, no disappointment, no straight eyes to the man who spoke with a guilt and regret squeaky face of the world that must have been calm and full of relief, ahead of Rem and escaped.

"Rem knows"

――――

"Even if Subaru can't give up the future, I know."

That's what Rem says to subdued Subaru so he can bite it off.

There is only a sincere glow in her eyes, and only a color floats there that truly believes in Subaru.

Subaru is overwhelmed by its fierce and strong glow.

Because that's just her mistake. It's just a funny mistake, an overbought statement about a human being named Subaru.

I don't know how noble and proud the Subaru is in Rem's eyes.

But the real Subaru can't be such a big person.

He makes weak noises, frustrates adversity, realizes how small he is when he sees it, paints it on defeat and tries to escape - that's Natsuki Subaru.

"I... I'm not that person... I am"

"It must be. Subaru-kun gave up on everyone... Emilia, her sister, Roswar and the others."

Denied in a strong tone. But it's a mistake. Subaru threw them out.

"I gave up, I gave up. It was more and more impossible to pick it all up...... my palms are small, it all spills off and nothing stays......"

"No, that's not true. For Subaru..."

Everywhere, everywhere, she made me deny Subaru giving up.

How come, so far, you don't try to admit that Subaru's nonsense about Subaru, who has so far exposed himself to ugliness? How does she see Subaru?

That's too unpleasant, unbearable,

- Whatever you say.

"- To you! My what!! What do you know about me?

A fiery flame burning inwards in the chest bursts out of heat.

Raising his anger, Subaru slaps his fist right against the side wall. stiff sounds, blood red scattered on the walls from crushed fists, spreading it rampantly with palms,

"I'm this much of a man! You have no power, but your hopes are high, and you have no wisdom. You just dream, and you scratch for nothing even though there's nothing you can do...!

For everyone, there is something about it.

And stretch that one handle, and everyone goes where they belong.

- But Natsuki Subaru doesn't even have that. Not even that, but only the height of the desired place is disproportionately high.

"I... Huh! I hate me!!

The reality of laughing naggingly and deluding, standing aside and running away, not facing it seriously - in front of it, Subaru exposes himself for the first time.

Natsuki Subaru hated himself more than anyone else.

"Always with all my mouths! I don't know what you can do, but you look great! I don't care if it's me, it's only in public when I complain! What the hell are you doing? How dare you, well, live without shame! Hey!?"

Relatively demeaning others and trying to make yourself look higher because you can't elevate yourself. I don't want to admit that I'm inferior to the others, so the vility of trying to protect my thin pride by imitating it like taking fried feet.

"It's empty. My contents are faint. It's settled...... oh, of course. It's taken for granted! You know what I've been doing until I get here, until this is how I see you guys!?

Before it fell into another world.

What have you done in the original world, in mediocre, boring days where nothing changes...

"- Nothing, I didn't"

I have had days devouring laziness, sinking into inebriation, unrelated to effort and drilling.

I'm not giving up on myself, but it's convenient for me to give it some thought.

"I didn't do anything... What one thing, I didn't come! All that time! With all that freedom! I could have done anything, but nothing came of it! Here's the result! The result is me now!

With the extra time, Subaru could have been anything.

But the Subaru of reality wasted a great deal of time given, and if it didn't get anything as a result, it wouldn't even produce something.

So when I sincerely want to do something, I'm not equipped with the power, wisdom, or skill to accomplish it.

"My powerlessness, my incompetence, everything! My... rotten sexual roots are the reason... ugh! You didn't do anything, but there's a limit to how much I want to accomplish... the slacker I've been, the wasteful habits of my grand life kill me and you."

I can't save myself. I can't help myself.

Even if I could be reborn, I'm sure I would go the same way, waste the same amount of time, come to this place with the same heart, and get the same regrets.

The rotten sexual roots remain the same. A human being named Natsuki Subaru only has such a shallow humanity at its bottom. That fact is unshakeable.

"Yes, the sexual roots were nothing... and it didn't change anything to think so, that I was going to live in this place. That Wilhelm's grandfather could see right through me, too. Don't you?"

Remaining in the Wang capital, in the mansion of Krush, Subaru received a master of swords from Wilhelm.

Within being overthrown many times and many times, seeing Subaru still challenging as he wore it down, but that old man was discerning its sincerity.

'Cause I didn't think it would make much sense to preach mindsets to people who weren't going to be strong.'

During the days of training, he spoke of the mindset of what waved his sword to the defeated Subaru, and his old man shook his head so.

When I didn't know Subaru then, and I didn't know what he was talking about, I denied it so - but in all seriousness, I knew exactly what that meant.

"I was trying to be strong, I was trying to figure it out... I'm just not doing anything, 'cause I'm trying... that's how I was just posing in an easy way to understand and justifying myself..."

Abandoned by Emilia, she exposed herself to nothing more misery in the place of the king's election.

The surrounding eyes that could be directed at me like that couldn't stand the consciousness, so I tried to protect myself under the guise of a 'striving' wind so that I could see in its gaze.

- I'm doing it right. It's not like I didn't do anything. It's about to change.

That's how I just got to that act, looking for a reason to compromise.

Even though it was proof that the idea itself had not changed anything when it was about to change.

"I want to say I can't help it! I want to be told I have no choice! That's just it! Just for that matter, I was, oh, doing it and pretending like I was putting my body up! I was studying with you because you were posing to mislead that evil punishment! My roots are small, cowardly, thin, like I care all about people's eyes with my cuteness. My roots are nothing! Nothing, it doesn't change..."

Peeling and falling, a vanity. Falling apart, vanity.

The vanity of not wanting others to feel bad overflows the selfishness of wanting to go through the claim that I am not wrong.

"... the truth is, I knew. It's all my fault."

It would have been easier if I had blamed someone, for something, and attacked it loudly.

You don't have to see who you really are, you don't have to show who you really are, and if you don't just peel off the top side, you don't have to see what you're holding inside of it.

I want to be loved by you who are weak, selfish, and just call me.

Because you can't look at yourself that ugly and you don't have to look at yourself that ugly.

"I suck.... I hate me."

Spit out all the dim darkness that has accumulated all over your chest, Subaru takes a rough breath.

It was like cloudy turmoil, and after coming to another world - no, it was depressing since I was in the original world, and I punched it all over my head.

I think it's human like I'm going to throw up.

I spit it out. Note that emotions that make my chest worse never disappear. Doesn't it make sense to be a little lighter if you spit out what you accumulate?

Besides not making the shards easier, shame is covering me up so much that I want to die right now on my own stupidity that I finally realized it in words.

And I pummeled all that filth, and the weakness at that arrow tip thinking all about me was crap more than anything.

Now, in front of me, imitating dirty and smearing with black paint that all the brilliance you see is a bluff against Lem, who was a believing eye, Subaru prioritized his own cuteness before leading her.

Damn, that's what it is.

I realized what I don't like about myself, what's wrong, admitting what's missing, and that's not what equals immediate improvement. Instead, the noticeable hole may have been interminably deep and dark, taking away even the temper to do something about it.

A hollow, empty hole is a testament to the fact that there are not enough people named Natsuki Subaru as it is. The unwillingness to move it out in front of you would also be a passive depravity to back it up.

Subaru not even worth being pitied. I was so stuck at the bottom of his heart, I heard the end of my filthy self, even the blue-haired girl -,

"Rem knows"

――――

"No matter how far ahead Subaru is in the invisible darkness, he's the one who has the courage to reach out."

- Still, Rem, he couldn't tell me from Subaru.

To absolute dearness, to full confidence, Subaru had gained an unprecedented sense of impatience.

I cursed you so badly, and you exposed all that ugly genuineness, and you cut the front and confessed that everything was a lie, a scum that couldn't be saved.

- Why is she looking at Subaru with such a loving eye?

"To Subaru, I like to be stroked. I think it fits with Subaru through his hands and hair."

Quietly, quietly, to the silent Subaru she begins to spill like that on the pretend.

"I like Subaru's voice. Every time I hear a word, I feel my heart warm. I like Subaru's eyes. I'm usually sharp, but I like those eyes that soften when I'm trying to be nice to someone"

Rem continues, as he hits the unspeakable Subaru.

"I like Subaru's fingers. He's a boy, but he's got beautiful fingers, but when he grips, he makes me think he's still a boy, he's a strong, thin finger. I like the way Subaru walks. I like walking that way, when we walk next door together, it turns me around like every once in a while to make sure I'm following you properly"

My heart was screaming.

Whenever Rem connected the words that way, a scream was wooden in Subaru's chest.

"... don't"

"I like Subaru's sleeping face. He's defenseless like a baby, and his eyelashes are a little long. I feel calm when I touch my cheeks, I don't even notice when I touch my lips with pranks... my chest hurts so bad, I like it"

"Why..."

Do you keep saying those words?

How can you keep throwing such words at Subaru, who is so stupid and nothing?

"If Subaru doesn't like himself, if that's what you say, I want you to know that there's so much good about Subaru that Rem knows."

"Such a thing... is a bluff... ugh!

What Rem sees is a convenient illusion.

The real Subaru is not such a person. The real Subaru is dirtier. There is a more malevolent Subaru that is the opposite of what Rem would look at in such a favor.

"You just don't get it! I know who I am best!

"Subaru, you only know who you are! How much does Subaru know about Subaru that Rem is watching!?

Reflectively absurd his voice, Rem shouted so that he could cover it even further.

Subaru is surprised at her first time coming to this place and loud. I was surprised, breathtaking, and finally realized that a large amount of tears were accumulating in Rem's eyes trying to keep his expression faceless.

With Subaru's words, there's no way she couldn't have been scratched.

Hearing all about Subaru's masochism, there's no way her heartfelt kindness didn't hurt her chest.

Still, she believes in Subaru.

Knowing all that badly spoken insides, Rem believes Subaru.

"Why... so much, me... I'm weak, tiny... run... ugh. Same as before, run away and still how..."

- How can you believe me so pathetic, so unreliable, so much for losing my weakness? I can't believe it myself. How can you believe me?

"-Because Subaru is a Lem hero."

Subaru's heart trembled quietly at that word, unconditionally and with full confidence.

Whatever vicious conditions were overlaid, whatever shortcomings were revealed, that only one word contained a wish to just bounce back all those malicious intentions.

And Subaru lost it late and finally realized it.

I was making a mistake. I was making a mistake. I was only wrong.

She assumed that only Rem would tolerate Subaru's corruption everywhere. No matter how weak and pitiful he exposed himself to ugliness, he mistakenly thought he would forgive me.

That's a mistake. Wrong. Fatal stupidity.

- Only Rem will never forgive Subaru for his sweetness.

Everyone told Subaru not to do anything, to be adulterous, to do nothing for nothing.

Everyone didn't expect anything from Subaru and kept saying that the deed was for no reason.

- Only Rem doesn't tolerate such Subaru's weakness.

Stand up, tell her not to give up, save everything, only she keeps telling me.

Nobody expects Subaru. Only she will never abandon Subaru, who even abandoned Subaru herself, and she will not admit it.

It was a 'curse' put on her by Natsuki Subaru.

"That in that dim forest, in a world where even my self became obscure, I came to help Rem, who couldn't think of anything other than just rumbling around"

――――

"The fact that he woke up and couldn't move Lem, and used too much magic to make his tired sister face the Warcraft in order to escape"

――――

"There's no winning eye, even my life is really in danger, and I still survived... that you stayed warm and came back into Rem's arms"

――――

"Wake up, smile, what the person who wanted Rem to say the most when he wanted him to say the most"

Many of the 'curses' Subaru has put on her are spoken out of her mouth.

The 'curse' is deep and gentle, turning her heart into a goose cross in a chain named Trust, and still binds her in this way.

"All this time, Rem's time stopped. From that flaming night, when I lost everything but my sister, Rem's time stopped."

Mouth one scale of the spectacular past, Rem stares at Subaru.

There's dimensional insane faith in it,

"Subaru-kun melted the time I had stopped, my frozen heart, into sweetness, and moved me gently. In that moment, that morning, how much Lem was saved. I'm sure Subaru won't know how happy Lem was."

So, and Rem, who puts his hand on his chest, takes over the words,

"- Rem believes. No matter how hard and painful things are and Subaru is about to lose. Even if no one in the world believes in Subaru anymore and Subaru can't believe himself - Lem believes,"

Talk, step, lem pack the time.

He reached both hands at a distance within reach and turned his arms around Subaru's neck, where Rem could not move by leaning down. Even though the power to attract is not strong, the irresistible Subaru is embraced by her without the art of exchange.

Holding his head against Rem's chest with a height difference, he heard his voice descend directly from the top.

"Subaru saved Rem, but he's a real hero."

My lips were put against my forehead and I could see the warm feeling touching there.

The heat spreads from the feeling touched and the unknown emotions swell inside Subaru's chest.

The feeling of blood passing through my hands and feet that I couldn't move and the noise that was filling my skull cleared up.

"No matter how hard I tried, no one could save me"

"I have Rem. Subaru-kun saved me, and Lem is here now."

"I'm the empty one who didn't do anything. Nobody gives me ears."

"I have Rem. If it's Subaru's word, I'll hear what it is. I'd like to hear it."

"Nobody expects me to. Nobody believes me.... I hate me."

"Rem loves Subaru"

My hands touching my cheeks are hot and my eyes moisturizing staring Subaru up close.

Because the way she was affirmed 'true' to the sincerity of the word,

"Me, something... okay...?

No matter how many times I tried, no matter how many times I tried again, I ruined everything each time.

They're all dead. I couldn't reach it. We all let them die. I didn't think enough.

Empty, helpless, retarded, even slow to act, even fluttering halves of wanting to protect someone.

Would it be okay for me to do that?

"Subaru, that's okay."

――――

"If it's not Subaru, I don't like it."

If you have someone who believes in you who can't believe you.

Can Natsuki Subaru fight?

- Don't you have to give up fighting fate?

"If you're empty, nothing, and you can't forgive yourself like that - let's start here now"

"What..."

"Like Subaru moved the time that Lem stopped, now he moves the time that Subaru thought he was stopped."

I was trying to turn the past, which I had done nothing, into regret, shame and giving up those hours I had spent by accident, the days that I had been unable to do anything.

Rem smiled at its subaru,

"Here, let's get started. From scratch...... no, from scratch!

――――

"If it's hard to walk alone, Rem will support you. Share your luggage and walk with each other in support. That's what you told me that morning, right?

Neighboring each other, Subaru said, trying to laugh and talk about the future.

Subaru said to lean over, support each other and walk away that way.

"Let me see what's cool. Subaru."

Because it's all about the cool stuff, and I kept showing it.

Because it was Subaru himself who put a 'curse' on her that never disappeared.

Subaru has a duty to live up to that responsibility.

"... rem"

"Yes."

To the call, she answers quietly.

Face up. Look forward. Staring into Rem's eyes. Calm, gentle, waiting for the answer to Subaru's mouth.

So Subaru, because I want to be Natsuki Subaru, whom she loved.

- I like Emilia.

"- Yes."

To Subaru's confession, Rem nods with a smile as if he knew everything.

to that smile, to her kindness, while Subaru knew he was cruel,

"I want to see Emilia smile. I want to help Emilia with her future. I don't care if they tell me to stay out of the way or not... I want to be next to her."

I reaffirm that feeling unchanged, now that I have received Rem's feelings.

But the way I feel about that solicitation is different from the way it was before.

"I like you, so I'm going to exonerate you of your feelings and make you understand whatever... you're arrogant"

…………

"I know, you don't have to have it. Now I want to help Emilia. I want to take Emilia to a future where we can all laugh."

So,

"Help me, will you?

Give me your hand and ask Rem, who is right beside you.

Because she loved herself, knowing she was cowardly, knowing she was using her thoughts while still not being able to give up her loved one's future, answering that she couldn't respond to the feelings she was offered.

"I can't do anything alone. I may not have enough of anything. I'm not sure I can walk straight. Weak, brittle, tiny. So, can you give me a hand so I can walk straight?

"Subaru is a terrible person. Do you ask the person you just shook to do that?

"It's hard for me to ask someone who's turned down a generation of proposals."

Subaru laughs powerlessly and erupts small to keep Rem from overcoming.

laughing at each other one by one, then Lem corrected his posture, picked his skirt gracefully and bowed down,

"Sincerely, I accept. So, Subaru, if Lem's hero can laugh and welcome the future,"

"Oh, look, in the privileged seat"

Subaru draws Lem, who took the hand she offered and exchanged her vows.

A small "ah," Lem's voice leaked, and her small body tucked into Subaru's chest. Thank God for the presence of that soft, hot, self-loving girl.

"- Where your in love guy is going to be the coolest hero ever!

In my chest, it's hot.

A hugged lem presses his face against Subaru's chest to hide his expression.

My breath is hot. I can rub my forehead on, my cheeks are hot. I'm sure the tears that are pouring out of her eyes are the hottest.

- Even now, Subaru can't like himself. I still hate it.

But because there's a kid who told me he likes Subaru like that.

Because even if it's such a Subaru, there are kids who want you to think they like it.

- Emilia, I'm watching you. Rem, you're watching. So I don't lean down.

――――

Because it's borrowing courage, but I can believe the thoughts on this chest are real.

Let's start here, from scratch.

The story of Natsuki Subaru.

- Start from scratch, living in different worlds.
