Re:Zero Kara Hajimeru Isekai Seikatsu (WN)

- Natsuki Subaru's life burned out in the midst of a collapsing tower, slaughtered by Reid.

Literally, it was the right time to assume that it burned out.

In the first place, I want to say a lot about how I was securing scaffolding in a collapsing tower, how I was countering the impending density of shadows, and what I was going to do afterwards, but all of that makes sense.

It's just certain that Reid's last flash swallowed Subaru and evaporated him.

Probably didn't hurt, I think.

Of course, I don't think it was Reid's mercy, etc., but the fact that the 'death' moment was free of pain and fear was unusual for Subaru, who died many times in a short period of time.

Yes, there was no pain, no fear. - There was just 'anger'.

- I am.

How many times, I wonder, will we continue to overlap the senseless' death '?

Subaru's 'death' is not pointless as long as there are hints that can be brought back to open it, and 'death' that keeps overlapping is not in vain.

It was a total deception.

That's just an excuse not to want to look at your powerlessness.

I just don't want to think he's dead, pointless, helpless, random, ruthless, unwanted. So I crave a reason for my 'death' that I'm not just dead.

If you weren't weak, good.

If you were smarter, good.

If you weren't this yourself, you were strong, smart, and tired, good.

"But..."

Because the only weak, stupid, pathetic Natsuki Subaru is here.

Because no one, always, ever tried to leave Subaru like that alone.

That's what's holding me back from my current, scratchy readiness.

"So, I..."

So Natsuki Subaru...

"- You, if I told you to die, would you die?

The moment I said it off, it wasn't like I didn't have any hesitation.

That's because the moment I got this inquiry, I couldn't predict how they would react. - No, I could have just predicted it.

I could imagine some patterns, and I wasn't sure it would be any of them.

What, then, was the hesitation you had at the moment of releasing the question?

Either way...

If your teacher wants to die, he's gonna die.

My chest hurt when I put my finger up on my cheek and answered openly Shaura.

It's like being stabbed, cracking, painful, screaming in the back of your chest.

――――

Screwing, he grabs his damaged illusory chest and Subaru exhales deeply.

You went scratched from me, and I felt terribly funny about myself hurting a dozen years ago. Seeing how Subaru looks like that, Shaura is strangely round her eyes.

Without offense, Shaura's attitude like, answered when asked about her dedication to dinner today.

That her reaction is the worst to second of the patterns Subaru had predicted.

Without any hesitation, Shaura accepts the choice to order the renunciation of her life.

That's not a lie or a joke, it's the undisputed truth about her, and if you look at those straight eyes, you'll see it at a glance.

First, it would have been better to catch a glimpse of black intentions and thoughts, Subaru's heart might have been saved.

But reality did not prepare such an escape route for Subaru. Whether that's mercy or merciless, I can't even tell the difference at this stage -

"... yeah, right"

"Master, do you want me to die? Um, I'd like to ask you anything you want, so, uh, as a matter of fact, it's totally coy, but again, at a lot of weird times, you're out of your mind, huh? Now the inside of the tower is softening..."

"I know. I know."

Hearing the reply of the plundered Subaru, Shaura twists her neck with her finger on her cheek. As its neck moves, her long threesome - the scorpion tail is shaking.

Scorpiontail. Think about it, this was an ironic naming too.

Similar to "Chaura," which means Sakura, her name represents her body in the earth. That must be a grand manifestation not only of the name, but also of the various parts.

I'm sure that's because I have no intention of hiding it from her.

So...

"- Shaura, you, can you turn it into a big sasori?

Without rhetoric, Subaru cut into the opponent's nostalgia with a straight ball.

Five obstacles that strike the Preades Surveillance Tower - the presence of one of them, the Great Sasori of the Black. Subaru is half-confirmed that it is Shaura.

But that is only the sensory answer solved in "Cor Leonis," a power that is also inexplicable for Subaru.

If you try to tie that sensory answer together with certainty, the quickest way to ask directly is to ask.

Regardless, I might have chosen a different method if I had the time, and if their answers were not credible, I should still have explored another means.

But to that Subaru question, Shaura kept her neck twisted.

"It's a little nuanced, but I can do it." Uh, but I don't like it when you lack prettiness. I think Kashi and the master designed it for me. "

Even though it was a contextless question, Shaura answered this without hesitation.

――――

She has no intention of hiding anything.

You can assume that such Shaura's own nature, and the proof of it, has now been exchanged. At the same time, I was still convinced that the great sasori that appeared in the tower - that identity - was her.

When the effect of "Cor Leonis" perceived the position of the fellow in the tower, it was still that kind of karaki that one of its perceptions showed that great sasori.

"Master? It's okay, is it, uh... is it, uh, is it, uh, is it, uh, is it, uh, is it, uh, is it, uh, is it, uh, is it, uh, is it, uh, is it, uh, is it, uh, is it, uh, is it, uh, is it, is it, uh, is it, is it, is it, is it, is it, uh, is it, is, is it, uh, is it, is, is it, is, is it, You don't look well, do you? Uh, shin knee pillows, arm pillows, chest pillows, pillows, refreshing squirrels around there?

"... don't say anything out of your mind. You said you couldn't afford that."

"It's true that the tower is freaking out, but, uh, the master is a lot higher priority, so everything else is behind us. So, if your teacher is confused and, uh, relieved of the crumbs, you're welcome to do so. Burning Sz."

"It doesn't burn. Put some water on it."

"You shouldn't be a teacher."

Chaura with pointy lips and a stubborn windy face.

If we cut off only the interaction with her and that look, we're going to mistake the situation in which the Subaru's are now placed as if they were peaceful.

――――

But reality is not at all subaru friendly. It is also far from peace.

Thus, even as Subaru and Shaura speak for a long time, Emilia and Lamb run to stop the 'bulimia' and Beatrice joins the reinforcements there. Julius collided with Reid-Roy on two levels, and Echidna should be joining Patrash and evacuating us to 'Tygeta' with Rem. And then Mary stops the herd of warcraft - the best hand of the status quo is being struck against the five obstacles.

Even that, however, is only a deception for discussion with Shaura.

Because this time around, Natsuki Subaru...

"Oh, Master? Is this some kind of real weird shit? If I can stare at you with such a frivolous eye, I will not have patience for 400 years...?

Shaura arms her thin body into Subaru's gaze staring at herself. That's nowhere, I try to pretend to be what I usually am, but it's not.

She looks, in fact, anxious about Subaru's attitude. It doesn't seem - no, it's not. Perhaps that's her sincerity.

She won't be upset when Subaru tells her to die, but the more subaru modulates, the more brittle and shaky her heart will be. - It's like a chick who admires her parents innocently.

――――

There were several possibilities in Subaru when he released his first question to Shaura.

The worst possibility of this was that as soon as he was thrown a heartless word from Subaru, Shaura transformed and manifested her nature, killing Subaru as she had that urge. - If all Shaura's attitudes so far were acting and everything was false.

It wasn't a possibility.

I wasn't sure before the question, but she has a proven track record of transforming into the figure of the Great Sasori and killing Subaru, Echidna and Beatrice. Alternatively, it is likely that Svalbard was also involved in the tragedy surrounding her failure to find the living.

So the first inquiry was also a bet for Subaru.

Say, the next moment Shaura swallowed that inquiry, it's not strange that Subaru's head is evaporating, such a bet - I won that bet, I can say.

But the bet doesn't end in one go.

To regain Subaru's unconscious accumulation of liabilities, the stakes prepared by 'bulimia' and the Preades watchtower, and the loss so far, it is not enough to overlap a small victory.

To win big, you have to bet big.

Hence...

"Shaura, I'm sorry for all the questions, but I need to ask you something. From what I've heard, there's got to be some rules for this Preades watchtower 'exam', right?

"Ah Shi is on fire. Is this the right time to ask?!?... That's some suss, huh? Even before your teacher hit you in the head with a potty, we talked about it..."

Let me hear it.

Without concealing Subaru's obstinate attitude, Shaura was gently poking her fingers in front of her chest. but she immediately put up that poking finger and squealed, "er,"

"I. It is forbidden to leave without completing the 'exam'. II. It is forbidden to go against the 'exam' decision. III. No disrespect for the library. IV. No acts of sabotage to the tower itself. - Shh."

Explain with a slightly fluent voice as Shaura folds her fingers.

Of course, I'm not uncomfortable giving you such a starchy explanation because she's a master of mouth if you limit yourself to diminishing mouth. No, but I got hooked.

That's true that it was a serious tone she didn't seem to have, and so was her hand on the last, last finger of the finger counting trick, where she stopped.

"- And the fifth?

"... no ss. Master, were you not listening to me? Uh, and I thought you only said up to four, sss. Master, can't you count the numbers anymore? That's Dames. Uh, I'm not good at numbers, but that's how much I can count..."

"Chaura."

――――

Jiri, making a noise, Subaru took a step, packing the distance from Shaura.

Originally, the two were facing each other straight from the front, but if that distance reaches out, we approach the distance we can grab each other. - This act was also a bet for Subaru.

Of course, because the distance of one step was open, because it was blocked, so I can do something about it, but my difference in power is not shallow.

"Master... Could it be that you're bluffing my heart? Uh, but anyway, if you want to get this close to me from your teacher, and let me crack your mouth, that's it. Keep up the momentum and give me a hug or something..."

"So if you're really going to crack my mouth, I will. I'd say it's useful.... but I don't think so."

――――

"Shaura, I'll ask you again. What's the fifth rule of the tower?

Subaru asks again, in the wake of Shaura's gentle rejection.

It was not a physical distance, but an act of stepping into her heart. Even if the reward was painful, I had to ask.

With such readiness, in front of Subaru, who consolidated his fist, Shaura breathed small,

"- NGs"

"... NG?

Shake your neck sideways, cross your arms in front of your own chest full of chaura, and make a bat mark.

The trick itself is childish, but her eyes weren't a serious story.

――――

Still, staring at Subaru standing in a dangerous place, the passion fills Shaura's eyes.

Its quiet, but deep passion everywhere, was brittle and daunting, to be called a petition.

reluctantly, she shook her neck sideways again,

"NGs. Shit, I don't want to talk to you, sss. The fifth rule? That doesn't matter, does it, sss? Ah Shi and your teacher's honeymoon has nothing to do with..."

"Why doesn't it matter? Me and everyone else are trying to 'test' this tower. I can't be optimistic that I don't know the rules of the 'exam' and it's okay. So, Shaura."

"... nasty"

"Chaura!"

Like a deafening child, Shaura turns away with her ears blocked. Subaru uttered in a strong tone to Shaura's attitude.

"You are you, and you must have a role in this tower. Tower star number......? You've been doing that for a long time. I don't know if it's true, but four hundred years! Then..."

"Four days, suss."

"... ah?

A voice spilled like a whisper briefly stopped Subaru from thinking.

Subaru's questioned years and an incomparably short time. Now, her rhetoric is a lie, and the time Shaura spent in the watchtower is much shorter - I can't believe it.

Shaura shudders her lips and continues with her petition in her eyes.

"Still, the masters came to the tower, just day four sss. In time, the first two days your teacher was asleep, so, uh, the teacher saw you, talked to you, stuck around for two days... I've waited 400 years! It's only been two days..."

"Chaura......"

"In a flash, I thought it was okay at first sight, ss"

He lay his eyes down and Shaura immediately stopped dropping her gaze downward. It's like saying it's a shame to take Subaru out of your sight even for a moment. - No, I thought so.

As far as Subaru thought, whenever Shaura was in the same place as Subaru and in the same space, she always looked at Subaru. That's not for what a thirsty purpose, monitoring Subaru's every step of the way, I'm sure -.

"Four hundred years, all the way in the tower, I've been waiting for your master, ss. At first sight, I thought that would satisfy me, ss. - But it was such a lie, sss."

――――

"Because your master is everything. With all of your teachers, you can do everything you think of. I can't tell my teacher that I've used all four hundred years. That's in just two days...... I don't like that."

"... so you can't tell me the fifth rule?

Painful thoughts surround Shaura's entire body, shaping her presence.

Four hundred years - I feel that the weight of that word, which I have captured only literally, has finally become a definite reality for Subaru.

Because to talk about four hundred years, her attitude was too light.

Maybe she doesn't have an organ to hold such emotions, like it's hard or painful or sad.

To the heart, to the spirit, I thought it might be as inorganic as that razor.

"Ah, and I don't want to talk about the rules, sss. NGs. Because if we talk about this..."

――――

"When we talk about this, the teacher realizes how to complete the 'exam'. So if we talk about this, if we talk about it... uh, your time will be over."

True, Shaura holds her body and exposes her mood to Subaru.

Blood-soaking - no, her whimpering voice pierced Subaru's heart.

It was an unexpected, unexpected response.

As with the first inquiry, Subaru was also contemplating several patterns of answers to this inquiry.

The sincerity with which Shaura is hiding the rules of the Preades watchtower. - If you're complicit with the person who made this tower rule of bad character, I thought she had some thoughts, too.

Or independently of those black thoughts, it was just a distraction or so much forgetting that she didn't talk about the rules, and there might not be any point in this.

But the truth was neither.

Shaura had thoughts about not wanting to talk about the rules of the tower. And the thought was a more tangible wish, unrelated to the thought of the 'wise man' who built the tower.

- For four hundred years, Shaura spent her lonely time waiting to be reunited with the waiting party.

That came true, I'm happy, so I want that time to last a little longer.

If it's to fulfill such a whispering greed...

"Master, are you going to hate me for lying?

――――

"He hates it and doesn't even want to see his face... yes, I think so, ssss?

Why do you look harder than when you say 'Will you die'?

Why does it matter if they don't like you more than if you don't?

- Why, you've been waiting for 400 years, and there it is, it's all like a goal.

"... I'm not gonna hate you."

――――

"Sometimes I think it's because you kept your mouth shut, and maybe, you know, it's been awesome, and honestly, I don't think I've ever been cornered like this."

Turning to the silent chaura, Subaru speaks of his honest heart.

There are no lies here. I mean it. With Shaura intentionally hiding the information, I'm sure she couldn't give the necessary thought, couldn't get to the answer, and as a result, Subaru died miserably many times.

Subaru is not the only one. Other than Subaru, to Emilia and the Beatrices.

I can't forget the despair of that moment, the disappointment, the feeling of helplessness.

So if there was such a thing as the roots of all evil that brought about that moment, I was sure Subaru would not be able to forgive that other person.

So can you think of the same thing to Shaura right now in front of you like this?

"- No."

I don't see Shaura as the root of all evils or anything like that, having enjoyed her for four hundred years in solitude, just two days happy that she was fulfilled the meaning of her birth.

If there is a root of all evil, it is the irrationality of the world itself, someone who created a situation that had to be done so, in the "Master" who commanded Shaura for four hundred years -.

"-"

Unexpectedly, an exhale plundered from Shaura's lips leaked.

"Chaura?"

"Ah, ah... Oh, ah..."

In front of her eyes, she feels strange about how Shaura is doing, and Subaru calls her name. But Shaura did not respond to Subaru's call and covered her face with her palms.

From that throat, I can hear them leaking, painfully trembling.

"So, Meh... Dames... Master! Master, Master, Master...!

"Chaura!? Shaura, what's wrong!? So suddenly..."

- Somebody broke the rules.

――――

Running over, Subaru's arm is caught in reverse as he tries to shake his white shoulder. And Shaura grabbed Subaru's wrist so painfully with those thin arms, she said.

Subaru stares head-on at Shaura's eyes who said it and breathes.

- There has been an odd change in Shaura's, black-eyed eyes.

In her round eyes, the black-eyed part of the eyeball was splitting in three and she was starting to pulse red. A simultaneous transformation in the left and right eyeballs, which means that the black eye split into six.

- Three left and three right, six double eyed.

"Master......! Now, we can still make it..."

"In time?"

"Now, if your master commands me, uh... uh, I can kill you."

Chaura pulses the eye red, the white vapor slowly begins to rise from its entire body. The white skin gradually became reddish and an unusual increase in body temperature was felt until Subaru, who stood right beside him.

The principle is unknown. - But Shaura's body is feverish and making changes.

Perhaps in the early stages, to transform into the figure of the Great Sasori.

"If it changes, you can't make it, sss. Ah, Shih, be a killin 'machine with no blood or tears, and I'll kill your master. Because I want you so much... I can't wait to have you... so"

"Before it happens."

"Ah, and tell me to die, sss.... and then, uh, about your teacher"

Because you don't have to kill me, Shaura didn't go on.

It's just that instead of words, the eyes, the trembling voice, the soul of the whole body, said the same thing.

――――

Here we go, and the whole body of Subaru gets an unparalleled scare. It is a human instinctive reaction, preceded by fears that I'm sure are not of the world.

A 'human' named Natsuki Subaru fears a 'monster' named Shaura in front of him.

So Subaru is...

Shaura, let me hear the fifth rule.

"Master, in that case..."

"If I could hear that -!"

Subaru blocked out loud the words of the petitioning Shaura. Shawla's shoulder trembled on the sword screen. Grab that trembling shoulder. Hot. The more his palms seemed to burn, the higher Shaura's temperature was no longer like a flame.

But I won't let go. Right now, I'm not letting go of something that burns her body and mind.

"If I can hear that, I command you. - Don't worry. Before you become a monster, I command you."

――――

Straight up, when I heard Subaru say that, Shaura opened her eyes.

Then she called "Master" Subaru,

"Master's, Feminine"

"I don't remember myself..."

"Then your master is a chaurata suss. A saucer specializing in..."

Smiling lightly, Shaura softly laid her hands on Subaru's hand grabbing her shoulders.

And -,

"- V. Do not forbid the destruction of the 'test', sss"

――――

"Look, the color of my eyes has changed, sss. - Ah Shino, to the master you like."

That's what I said, and Shaura poked Subaru in the chest.

More powerful than he thought, Subaru backs off without grabbing her shoulder. If you gently cough up and look at the front, Shaura will hold her body and squat on the spot -,

"Ah, ah... Oh, ah... Huh!

From all over, the red vapor rises like blood. Steam changes color and goes to dangerous signs. Shaura's eyes also lost their black eyes, and only when their eyes had turned into bright red objects.

"Oh, Master... Quickly. Ah, but before it's over..."

――――

"Say it, sss... say die! If your master told me, I would..."

With his mouth completing the 'exam' and petitioning that Svalbard didn't like leaving the tower, Shaura lets his life crush and shows Svalbard the way - no, he doesn't have to kill Svalbard.

When he heard such a desperate voice of Shaura, Subaru exhaled.

Then,

"Chaura."

"Master..."

"- Bad. That was a lie earlier."

"Huh?"

Shaura opens her eyes to the words of Subaru. Seeing that Shaura's reaction, Subaru held his breath and flew straight back wide.

I was fortunate in my misfortune to be thrust by Shaura. - If Shaura had kept grabbing my wrist, I would never have been able to imitate this.

- It's like Subaru's body jumps over the edge of the balcony and into space.

"Oh-"

Shaura's voice is overwhelmed by a fierce sandy breeze that makes her deaf in an instant. As it is, Subaru's body falls nonstop to a few hundred meters below, without any reliance.

――――

Falling, there's a way to help, it wasn't.

I don't have any helpful measures. What Subaru did was throw himself pure. I never wanted to do this, and I didn't want to tell you - but from the start, I meant this.

This time around, if this behavior was permissible, I was definitely going to.

Because now Subaru can believe his choice without hesitation.

Because...

"- Master!!

I jump out of the balcony the same way myself, and Shaura comes after Subaru.

He leaps in, looking open into his eyes, desperately reaching out, following Subaru, where Shaura falls, not trying to kill him with his own hands, but trying to save his life.

- The identity of the Great Sasori was Shaura.

- Shaura was intentionally, hiding the rules of the tower.

- Shaura kills Subaru and his people many times and stands as five obstacles.

But...

- I can help you.

――――

Until the end, I will not forget what she looked like when she petitioned me to make a dying order not to kill Subaru, with an ill-intentioned transformation.

Bad personality story, but I wanted to make sure of that one.

Who to help, who not to help, who to defeat, who to protect and who to love.

I had to be sure of that, because I didn't think Natsuki Subaru could go any further.

I don't know who to love anymore, I'm not lost.

"- Master Ahhhhhh!!

Chaura changes in the air trying to reach out and catch up to Subaru.

The stretched arm enlarges and transforms into a giant clam wrapped around a pitch-black crust. White skin has no shadow to see, this is again covered in a rough crust and the flesh expands so that it can bounce from the inside out.

For a moment, the painful transformation of the flesh as it explodes, it converges to reverse the tape, and finally a disastrous alienation - the great sasori is complete.

And the tail of the great sasori quickly set its sights on Subaru.

Perhaps that white light-like tail needle will be released from there and burn Subaru's life out in an instant. There is no way to flaunt Subaru in the air.

But...

- You're not gonna kill me because Shaura's gonna cry.

――――

The tail needle is released - sooner, the end of the fall comes.

Suddenly, both Subaru and the Great Sasori fall over the herd of warcraft that was about to push them to the sand tower. Subaru can't see the result.

The presence of Natsuki Subaru is intolerable for landings from hundreds of metres.

Blast, life is scattered.

But on the verge of life being scattered, just one word -,

- I'm gonna help you.

- There was only a small amount of time for sand winds to expose messages that were not conveyed to the Great Sasori.
