Chapter 5: 41: Heroic Fantasy

"I got back a lot quicker, didn't I?

He welcomes the Subaru back to the city hall and says so with a subtle grin drawn by Anastasia.

It wasn't really the right time to face each other, to be honest, just to cut off the prestigious heap and leave the building, and Svalbard, who was the winged one to return.

However, the situation should not take either of those moods into account.

"Oh, I'm home. But I'll be back as soon as I've done my errands. There's something I need to do in the government building."

"What did you come up with again? I don't have a good feeling about that."

"Well.... In the meantime, the first shelter seemed awful. As I told you in the dialogue mirror. I think the influence of 'anger' is in many places."

"Emotional sharing, you did it, didn't you? Neither do we. For once, I don't mind sinking endlessly when my feelings sink. … there seems to be a slight personal difference."

To Anastasia's reasoning, Subaru also pulled his jaw to give his consent.

In fact, that's what Subaru was feeling on the road. The influence of Sirius' power is sparse because of their distance.

Perhaps it has something to do with whether or not you know the very existence of power can also mitigate the impact. Experience proves that Subaru was able to deceive Garfiel and Al.

"I don't know what's hanging up, though, like a shelter. If it's me, you'll be worried that this is where the main forces are gathering. I hope you don't mind coming back and getting caught up in a blood festival."

"Sora, don't worry about it. Fortunately, you won't be confused because you'll have all your rational faculties. As far as we're concerned, we'd rather be making statements that disrupt the sum."

Al, back with Subaru, says that as he looks around the first floor of the city hall. Anastasia sounded her nose when she heard it, silencing her mouthless Al with irony.

When Al shrugs his shoulders and shuts up, Anastasia turns back to Subaru.

"So, what are you gonna do? I've got an idea and I'm back."

"Oh.... by the way, what happened to Julius? Aren't you with me?

"I don't really like being able to overlap questions with questions.... Julius is looking a little weird, too. I don't think Joshua has found it yet, so I think I'm gonna say something about it."

"Things are weird... Speaking of which, was it a little weird?

It is true that Julius, who talks to awakened Subaru after a failed urban government building offense, had some badly toothed part noticeable. I was showing decisions and suggestions that I wouldn't normally make, bare gestures that I didn't feel confident about.

He's a very responsible man. Perhaps he thought it was something he regretted letting 'bulimia' get away with, or maybe it wasn't just that.

"Admiral, it's a wicked habit to hold anything in your arms. I don't know what Julius cares about, but he's got something to do."

"Oh, yeah, right. Well, he doesn't have to worry about it. You can handle it on your own. It's more about this way. Mr. Anastasia, the magic device on the top floor is in working order, right? without being broken or without instructions."

Garfiel begs Subaru to regain consciousness. Anastasia took it, puffing her round eyes,

"I'm fine because it's broken and I've dealt with the naughty stuff before... I have business with you. What are you up to?

Subaru scratches his own cheek at Anastasia with surprising eyes.

First of all, this is the only suggestion I can think of for Subaru that I think there will be opposition. Measures to maximize the impact in order to reduce damage.

"As we talked about in the dialogue mirror, there is a strong influence of 'anger' power in this town today. The shelter we went to... the cause of the smell of blood was the spread of frustration. A little negative emotion creates the worst damage. I'm scared there."

"Seya. I think so too. The more people you have, the greater your anxiety accelerates when you don't have a hand to hit. Saya, but shelter is more than how it works...... yeah, people lean in, even if there wasn't a shelter. Let him?"

To Anastasia's inquiry, Subaru shook his head silently and vertically.

The horror of Sirius' power is that the more people there are, the more effective they are. And if the broadcast makes known the threat of witchcraft, people can't help leaning out of anxiety. It's just the worst way to beat the minds of those who fight weakness.

I don't know if witchcraft aimed at that collaboration, but it is true that the vicious circle is resulting. And it's also threatening people at this moment.

"Fight it, what the means came up with?

"Maybe I can. It's a level. I think it's worth a shot. Just..."

Subaru's tail cleaves badly in the eyes of the anticipating Anastasia.

Subaru exhaled deeply as he felt Anastasia narrow her eyes and pierce her with her gaze as she tried to read its insides.

"If I start doing things, I'll have the same content in their witchcraft ears. So it means stimulating them, which could create another danger."

"Instead, the potential danger is likely to be kept away."

"Oh, that's the thing. I think it's a tough problem to put on the scale now that we've just reclaimed the city building and have not been served by shelter outside of Sirius' powers..."

I can't imagine how the witchcraft guys would react by taking big action from here. The danger of bringing a spark into the arsenal always accompanies witchcraft. The problem is the untouchable part where the powder bank explodes with or without a spark.

"- We know what Natsuki-kun wants to do."

"Is that true?

Anastasia, who was showing a bare gesture of contemplation, said so with a long sigh. Subaru raises his eyebrows in surprise at her reaction.

"Check the flow of the current story and the first magic machine for broadcasting. If that's what you don't know, you'll be more worried."

"As it were, well, you did. So, what do you think? I knew you'd disagree?

Probably would disagree, as I had thought beforehand.

So Subaru managed to fight his tongue, and I have to say a mighty wall called Anastasia...

"Ha, no, no."

"... eh, okay?

"If you think rationally, it's best to do so. I don't care how much we hold on to winning, if a pile of corpses stays after all the witchcraft, it's too bad aftertaste."

There are unexpected answers, and often Subaru is taken aback.

In the meantime, Anastasia had bitten her lips to worry about how to deal with the indigestible emotions in herself, but it was Garfiel who interrupted her there.

"Wow, Admiral and sister. I mean, we're talking about it."

"You ill-conceived child. We talked about it so much that we even noticed it on our recard."

Anastasia has no mercy for Garfiel, who has not been able to get on with the story. Garfiel fanned irritably at that anastasia, but it was Al who slapped that shoulder from behind. Al laughed at Garfiel looking back,

"That is. That's what my brothers think. It's quick to take it backwards when it comes to fighting the power of the Furious Wrath that spreads all over this town."

"Backwards, I mean..."

"Sirius' ability is to share emotions. I'm scared of anxiety. Now. So many people's emotions swell and a little thing leads to irritation and explosion. Then."

"Another sentiment for anxiety and fright... if you fill it with hope, the mind will be shared."

Al and Subaru, and finally Anastasia, unravel Garfield's doubts.

Hearing that, Garfiel leaked a convincing groan as he opened his eyes and

"That's what I mean! If that's true, then there won't be any killing. If we talk about it well, the people who have broken their temper to fight will feel like fighting."

"When you're swallowed up by the atmosphere around you, you're probably not going to be able to lift your hips even if you're used to fighting. I think if we free ourselves from that anxiety, we can also combat the lack of force in question."

"That's a good idea! Let's do it, Admiral! I have a magic device. Start right away. So..."

"Wait! It's not that simple. We didn't think about it."

Retaining a deviant garfiel, Anastasia slapped her hand.

Garfiel stripped his fangs of that anastasian bare gesture,

"Ah? Don't do that. That's all I agreed with you about earlier, but you didn't have to do it in the last minute."

"You can't pull your back. I'm not saying anything. I'm telling you I was thinking. There are other problems with this operation than the simple pros and cons."

"The pros and cons, that's what I just said, right?

"The advantage is the very purpose of this operation. Paying for the anxiety of those in the city to get rid of the worries of the hindsight. The disadvantage is that it will deliver a voice all over the city, so naturally it will also go into the ears of witchcraft. I can't read how they get out."

Biting Garfiel and calm Subaru, Anastasia responding to the two, carried on the word "but" with her arms together,

"I don't think I care much about this disadvantage. Yeah. When I stuck my demands in the first place, I forbade their broadcast to defy them. I don't know, I didn't mean to. To be disturbed, to be rebelled."

"... if I mention it, there's no penalty for us launching an attack on a city building, in the sense of punishing itself. It's just their hobby that people in the government building came across like that."

"Hobbies, huh? Yeah, words. I'll pass on their bad taste."

Anastasia sighs, and Subaru also recollects the face of the Bishop of the Great Crimes and vomits back.

However, it is our opinion that there is no danger to each other of broadcasting itself. If so, Anastasia is having a problem with -,

"We have nothing against broadcasting itself. But the problem is somewhere else... and that's who talks about what on the air."

"Who said what..."

I don't know what Anastasia has mentioned and Subaru frowns.

It stirs the hopes of those in the city on the air and drives away the anxiety that hangs around their hearts. To serve that purpose, who says what, etc. -.

"Well, this is Mr. Anastasia's turn. He's a king's candidate, and he's got visibility. If you show the temper to fight through Anastasia's mouth..."

"When I say this, I think it's hard to expect that effect from our words. I seem to acknowledge my lack of strength."

――――

Anastasia shakes her head and denies Subaru's early suggestion.

Subaru doesn't know what that means. Because Anastasia's position is a candidate for king. Naturally, the people who live in this Pristella also know the circumstances of the king's election, which was made public.

Her visibility should far outweigh the people there.

"How could I not have enough power? Because Mr. Anastasia..."

"Visibility, if that's all we talk about, it's definitely us. If that makes things better, we'd be happy to broadcast it. But it won't. Our name doesn't connect to the status quo, just the power to leave witchcraft. Someone famous is trying to fight witchcraft - I don't know if I can do something about it."

"Still."

"Well, that doesn't make sense. What we need is hope. hope that the hearts of those who were ruled by anxiety would be thrust and moved at once"

To Anastasia's assertion, Subaru cannot carry on two sentences.

To be honest, I want to impeach her weak back and correct her thoughts. But nobody else. Anastasia herself feels remorse for the pity of her current opinion.

Anastasia and I are not saying this without thought. The other way around.

I decided that I lacked this role myself because I thought through it.

"There's nothing you can't do if you cheat and deceive me. Five out of ten would have fooled us. Yeah. But that's no hope. Talk about just a slight change of heart as a lifeline that could cut a thousand if the wind blows"

"So... what about Mr. Krusch? There's also a martial name, if you're Mr. Krusch of the Lugnica aristocracy."

"... well. If Mr. Krusch's words, he must have had power. But that's also the story of Mr. Krusch before. Mr. Krusch does not have that power right now. Not to mention that Mr. Krush is now Setouchi of Life. Previous Problems of Braving Someone"

"Is Setouchi of Life that bad!?

Subaru stuffs to Anastasia for worse than he was being asked.

Anastasia, with a difference in height, looked up at Subaru and tied her lips. Subaru looks back at Garfiel for a moment, but he shook his head sideways with a weak look,

"My cat-eared sister would never let me die. Just let me breathe life into you... but let me stand in front of the magic machine and talk to you. I disagree. I can't do that. Oh, it's in my voice, too."

"Shit! Then it's Julius. Julius would qualify..."

"Certainly Julius is an excellent knight of the Kingsguard or. The highest knight in the kingdom, also proud of us. But how far does Julius' own visibility help in the city? The success rate of the matter is inferior to ours. If you're good with your mouth, ours is up there."

They reject the proposal to take Krush out, and they can also bounce off making Julius stand.

Then is it the presence of Wilhelm or Ricard that is likely to inspire other hopes in terms of staying in the city hall? I don't have that much traction or visibility on my recard.

And to Wilhelm today, can we bring such a story? How far does the title of former Commander of the Kingsguard Knights serve as an advantage?

"Then what do I do? Who else..."

"That one."

Because of this, I thought effective measures against 'anger' had come to mind, but I was hampered by the fact that I could not find a suitable role in the execution phase.

To Subaru, who thus contemplates, Al raised his hand in a mild manner to the lid,

"Isn't that guy on the air supposed to be a brother?

"- What?"

Subaru reacted slowly, put in too normal a way.

Open your mouth pompously, consider what Al has mentioned, and don't even have to.

What are you thinking of jokes, jokes, and jokes that are not funny at this time?

"You know, Al. I'm in the middle of a serious discussion right now. There's no time for that kind of discussion. I can't even handle your mess."

"Whoa, wait. Sure, I'm the guy who took hiring from the princess because more than half of what she said was not serious, but I'm not kidding around right now."

"I'm not kidding, how come you got an idea to let me do it? I'm not kidding, I'm not asking if you're lost in blood or tochi crazy."

"What's so strange about it? Why don't you take a look around?

It's only an unserious piercing Al, but he drops the tone of his voice on the lid and squeezes his jaw. In response to that move, Subaru shifted his gaze to another two - Anastasia and Garfiel. I thought you two might be watching this exchange in disdain.

"... hey, both of you?

――――

Their gaze is serious, and they are never shuddered or mourned.

The two had sincere eyes and stared at Subaru.

It's like saying we're positive about Al's opinion, too.

"Are you kidding me? How can you be so convinced that I'm talking to you? How could I if Mr. Anastasia or Julius didn't arrive!

"Well, you were talking outside earlier, weren't you, brother? As a result of what my brothers have been piling up so far. You said Garf, too, right? Admiral, Admiral."

"How does that relate to this!

"I'm with you! My brothers have shown me that I just let Garf call me Admiral. You trust me with that, don't you? Um, my brothers apparently mistake their handles for not a big deal, but I'll tell you what. I can't believe you destroyed witchcraft's" laziness, "and now instead of this city, all you have in this world are brothers, right?

――――

Al stuffs his face close to Subaru, whose voice is absurd.

The forehead of the cold helmet hits Subaru's forehead, conveying a stiff feeling and cold cut heat. From right around the corner, invisible eyesight pierced and Subaru breathed.

"In a city occupied by witchcraft, there is a man who killed the great Sin Bishop of witchcraft. Is there anyone else in the terms just now who can stir up so much people's hopes and expectations? If he's here, it's just Kensei Reinhardt and his brothers. And there's only brothers here now."

"-"

Once, Subaru turns upside down when he gets hit hard on the forehead.

Svalbard lowered with his hands on the forehead of the meeting, and Al shrugged the shoulders of the ship's arms.

"We agreed to do it. If you want someone to do it, Natsuki-kun is the only one."

"Mr. Anastasia......"

Anastasia lay her eyes down on Subaru looking back with her hands on her forehead.

That's the look I just told you about leaving my lack of power dragging on, but it's also the look I feel responsible for having to entrust hope to someone.

After seeing the look on his face, Subaru finally realized the existence of great expectations on his back.

"Is Garfield the same? You think so?

"I don't know what the Admiral said about killing your" laziness. "But I thought about it. It's the same."

To Subaru, who asks in a low voice, Garfiel scratches the head of his short hair,

"If the voice of someone in this city is someone's hope... for me, that's the voice of the Admiral. If that's what the Admiral told me to do, I think I could do it. That's how I think."

――――

It was an unmistakably heavy trust.

Surprised, stuffed with breath, Subaru clearly thinks of the magnitude of the expectations placed on him.

I circled my neck and saw Anastasia. She snorts.

Keep it up. Now I see Al. He also shrugs his shoulders.

Garfiel looks at Subaru unchanged. If I looked back, I nodded.

――――

Subaru turns his neck upwards in response from those three.

He narrowed his eyes to the light of the weak crystalline lamp in the ground floor lobby and exhaled long and deep.

- Damn, it's overrated.

I've felt it in Wilhelm, in Julius, in Reinhardt.

They are too, misguided by the existence of Subaru. I'm mistaken.

Even though they are much more splendid, much harder, much more noble.

It has always tormented Subaru for them to praise Subaru, reach out and speak up in affection, as they naturally do, naturally.

It does not just evoke joy to be admitted that way to someone you respect, to someone you don't want to lose, to someone you never reach.

I was anxious. I'm sure I'll let them down one day when my true self is revealed.

When I realize that the real Subaru is pitiful, weak, and helpless, I am sure I will make them look sad and regret what they have said and done so far.

All this time, I keep thinking that. Yet,

Al, Garfiel and Anastasia expect that from Subaru.

I'm about to be crushed by the weight, and I keep putting heavy stones on Subaru from next to next, just because Subaru is desperate, but desperate isn't enough.

This is the way Natsuki Subaru walks.

- Once, I swore to just one girl, the path that was her only hero.

Either way, she can no longer be the only hero, and Subaru should carry -.

"- If you want to do it, brother. What brothers are going to carry is heroic fantasy."

To the silent Subaru, Al utters those words to the fuzz.

Subaru loosening his gaze, Al, with some powerless voice,

"You shouldn't lose. I have to win. You take hope, you carry expectations, you show the future and you fight. If we make a decision here, we have to."

"... you shouldn't lose, you always do"

"It weighs differently. Brothers lose more than brothers lose."

Al's, I'm not sure what the word means.

The Battle of Subaru always is. When Subaru loses, Subaru is not the only one to be lost. Everything Subaru wants to protect is lost in Subaru's defeat.

Always is. There's no such thing as when you're not.

Because if you don't have to lose and lose, I don't even want to fight.

Still, Subaru fights because there are things that you have to fight to protect.

And that, at this time today, is so big, so much.

"Oh, my God, then, you're not the same as usual"

――――

I exhaled and decided my mind.

My chest, which was all that bothered until just now, calms down and my vision clears up slowly.

I could see Al stuffing his breath in front of me, and I couldn't see his face flashing.

"I'll do it, Mr. Anastasia. If you can do something with my voice, I'll do it."

"... yeah? Once you choose to hope."

"It doesn't change what I do. Hero, isn't that nice? No, honestly, there's a lot to it, and I'm a little bit of an asshole to call it that."

On Anastasia's worried face, Subaru rubbed his nose head gently with his fingers,

"If it's just a hero thing to do, I've been deciding for another year. If you don't, you'll be ashamed of the child you're watching, and you won't be able to catch up with the child you're watching."

"-So? If you do, yeah. Boys, you know, just hang on."

Anastasia laughed like she had no choice, poking Subaru's chest lightly.

I'm just a little surprised by the reaction.

Undefensively, Anastasia gave me a genuine look, because it seemed like it was the first time that it was now.

The emotion also slipped right into his poked chest, and Subaru looked up.

"Thank you, Garfield. Al. Thanks to you guys, I'm ready."

That's what I say to the two of you behind me, followed by Anastasia walking out.

Stand in front of a magic machine for broadcasting and think in your head about what to say.

Still, I don't know what to say, I don't know what to say.

But I was wondering why there was no confusion or anxiety.

Is it because you think so, as usual?

- Like always, do you know you have to dress up?
