Reincarnation Monarch

Episode One Hundred and Thirteen: Harm

"... me? ……

"Yes, Carla did."

Carla frowned, squeezing thinly enough to meditate on her right eye or not to stare at Gaius.

"... you're not kidding, are you?

Gaius shrugged his shoulders gently.

"It's not like that. At first, I thought I just felt rejuvenated because I changed the way I spoke, but I knew I was."

"... I'm not sure myself..."

"Maybe. It took me quite a while until I realized my mental age was a lot stranger."

"Hmm... isn't it just a matter of mood? Honestly, I feel good about my flesh being young, too. Isn't that the only thing that's creating that kind of atmosphere?

"Uh-huh, maybe when they say that. But I don't know, I don't think that's all."

"Well... well, there's an empirical example of you. Maybe you're right."

"Yeah. It's just, that's why we're talking about everything. Actually, it's not like that's inconvenient."

"Well, you sure do. Assuming it's true that the spirit has been rejuvenated, that doesn't mean it's harmful. I lost my memory and forgot a few spells. It's a problem, but I don't think so."

"Oh, so well... that's not all we're talking about"

"But if Lucifer really erases the memories around here, maybe it's actually harmful just because you don't realize it."

Gaius was surprised by Carla's allegations.

"... indeed... is there any real harm... when you say something like that, you wonder if it is..."

Then Carla laughed niggly.

"But, well, it's not like we can verify the area. Let's leave this matter alone for now."

Gaius also nodded at Carla's suggestion.

"Right. Don't know how much you've thought about it, just don't think about it."

"That's the thing. Then let's hurry ahead again. You got a lot ahead of you, don't you?

"Oh, it's gonna be a long, winding road all the way up to a great end."

"Then you won't have a choice but to talk forever in this place. Let's get out of here."

That's what Carla said and encouraged Gaius.

Gaius also nodded loudly and looked at the cave.

"Right. If we don't leave early, we'll never get to hell. Okay, so do you want to go quickly"

When Gaius said so, he exhaled one sigh lightly and then slowly rose.

And then I peered into the cave again. No, I slowly went down.

When Carla dropped off her back, she sighed just as lightly, shaking her neck lightly once or quietly after Gaius.
