Reincarnation Monarch

"... that was also unfortunate for all four of us..."

As Shester toured his thoughts at high speed, and put in words of comfort for now, the then Azio nodded deeply and returned the words.

"You didn't actually have so much luck that you didn't have any more... it was only two weeks after you incorporated it anyway, right? I didn't have time to get along with the rest of the crew..."

"... only two weeks after I incorporated him, he showed up..."

"Yeah, he... a thousand years of dragons appeared. Damn, you get hairy just remembering... speaking of which, you were there then too, weren't you? To Esta... Then you saw it, didn't you? Giant wings like that demon... and a red lotus flame reminiscent of Hellfire..."

"... oh, he was a genuine monster. I've never tasted that much fear before, and probably never will."

"I agree. I mean, you definitely don't want to taste any more fear than that. Honestly, I'm sorry again."

"Right. I'll never see him again... by the way..."

Shester separated the words once there and caught the magpie with a sharp eye.

"Did all four of those unlucky people join my team with the intent of something?

Then Azio shrugged his shoulder with an ironic grin.

"That's not true - it's just that the four of us just blew up teaming up for the newcomers. I told you earlier, didn't I? He said he got caught up in Esta before he got along with the rest of the crew."

"... oh, you did say that"

"Isn't that right? So it's a coincidence. Coincidence."

"Hmm. Coincidence. Maybe not, maybe not."

"No, no, no, no, there's no way you're not! It's a coincidence!

"Ok, ok. Let's just do that."

"... doesn't that mean you don't believe me..."

Asio grabbed Shester's verbal butt and complained about the bumps.

But Shester didn't care and changed the subject half forcefully.

"What's better than that? I think it's about time we arrived..."

I said by calculating the time and distance Shester walked this far.

Then Asio replied reluctantly, although he wondered if it might be a little forceful to change the subject of Shester, but he couldn't answer because the topic he changed was a story of purpose in the first place.

"... Yep, around here. I mean, I think it's probably that building, right?

Asio said so, pointing to a huge building that stood in majesty well ahead of him in the direction of progress.

"... that... that's pretty big..."

"Well, that's right. Anyway, it's Army headquarters."

Shester nodded deeply at Azio's words, staring at the Army headquarters far away.
