Seirei no Moribito

Blue blue horizon

"Lynn, let's go see the ocean!

"... what?

The appearance of Lynn, who blinds her eyes just because she suddenly can't understand the words said, was creating a defenseless, age-appropriate young man who only showed Emilia.

The season is early summer.

Emilia suddenly realizes that she wants coolness on such a day today, when the sunlight that shines brightens her heat, she walks out with the hands of Lin, who is now flashing if she doesn't move into immediate action.

"... Emilia?

"What, Lynn?

"... was there a sea somewhere you could take a day trip?

"No?

……

As she was drawn, Lynn walked slowly and noticed that Emilia was saying something strange. Let go of the hand that had been pulled away, and then flatter it in a whispering tone somewhere.

"... in this light outfit, and you won't have to go to the sea because you want to stay"

"I do, Lynn. Because you've never been away just exploring the neighborhood before, have you? Besides, it's getting hot again lately... and if you're going far, I thought the ocean would like to see it!

In contrast, Emilia stares at Lynn with glittering, glittering eyes that look good with those phonetic sounds.

Lynn sighed with an indescribably complex expression, as if she had seen something she should not have seen, as if she had encountered a natural mutation in the world,

"... we're going home"

"Uh, that's - that's terrible, Lynn! It's a wonderful day in the sea."

"... No way, were you going to swim?

"... that's not true...?

Emilia moves her gaze all over the place in such a way as suspicious behavior herself because she's stuck with pictures thinking maybe.

Again, this time sighing in disgust, Emilia hurries to chase after Lynn, who just turns back on her original path without hearing Emilia's reply.

"Ugh, wait, Lynn!

Emilia reflected on whether the impossibility was too much as she followed behind Lynn, who was just walking away without looking at this one.

"... you wanted to see, the sea..."

It's so puffy, it's so unexpected.

Emilia's inhabited village is a closed place at the foot of the mountain, surrounded only by natural scenery and objects that can be called killer scenery.

Knowing the sea in the stories and knowledge told by the merchants, Emilia longed for its existence and secretly wanted to go see it with Lynn.

But it's true that Lynn is right, you have to come at least overnight to see the ocean, and it's not like you can act right away because you remembered it in the first place.

It's true that I wanted to cool down after being hit by this heat, but I didn't really want to go to the ocean.

I didn't, but the words I accidentally spit out were such envy and untrained, and Emilia sighs when she seemed to stick to the ocean more than she thought.

(You're an idiot, I...)

If Lynn told me that she wanted to go with me, I'd be surprised if she had any expectations.

(... I can't believe I was obsessed with that...)

And another thing, Emilia had a real reason why she wanted to see the ocean.

But I didn't think it was destiny. I held my head inside the ambush,

"... yeah, I can't help it. So Lynn, let's go to the lake today!

Overnight saying it was a foolish high desire, in an instant, Emilia switches her mood and walks out with her feet toward a small lake deep in the woods.

One step late, and Lynn still follows me around naughty with a sigh of sigh,

"... Emilia"

"What, Lynn?

We're going out early in the morning.

"... Huh?

Now it was Emilia's turn to be flabbergasted by such an uncluttered word by Lynn.

to Emilia, who tilts her neck if she doesn't know what it means, Lynn looks somewhere far away with no expression as usual,

"... if you go out with the sunrise, you'll manage to come home by sundown"

"... well, that's..."

Emilia, who later understood what Lynn was saying, had a full smile as she couldn't hide her face, which seemed niggling at the fact that she had invited me from Lynn's side,

"... yeah!

If you want to go to the sea, I'll take you.

Emilia rushed to the lake with a smile and joy to Lynn, who told her darkly to fulfill Emilia's whining wish.

The next day, early morning.

Leaving the village with the sunrise, Emilia looked unattended, staring at Lynn's hindsight as she walked ahead, still unchanged, heartless and expressionless.

(Lynn... I can't believe Lynn took me to the ocean for me...)

Lynn, who says what it is, runs it this way, is sweet.

Even if that tenderness showed Emilia alone, she could tell that Lynn was one person, and Emilia was happy and at the same time relieved.

Always a rugged look and a murderous gaze. Its appearance of Lynn, who strips away hostility and intimidates, as if to say that everyone is an enemy and a hateful opponent, was hard and sad for Emilia.

(... sorry, Lynn)

And Emilia, who couldn't stop it and didn't even try to flatter her surroundings, is also guilty of the same crime.

Still, it was never redemption to stay next to Lynn.

(... It's all on my own to say that I want to be by Lynn's side and that I will stay on my side. But Lynn took it... I'm staying here)

The moment Lynn refuses, this unexplainable relationship ends.

But if not, Emilia can stay by her side.

"... Lynn"

Lynn, who walks ahead with physical enhancement through "witchcraft," turns her face slightly back to the words,

"Thanks, Lynn"

……

Just a little, peek a grin through the solidified gap of hatred.

This sense of distance and Lynn's grin were the happiest of all in the treasure for Emilia.

Time for the sun to rise directly on top a little later, pinching such a grudge on the road.

Emilia found the smell of tide flowing in the wind and brilliantly blue in the front,

"... the sea..."

I arrived gradually, rushing towards the presence of the sea that I wanted to see.

And then we got there,

"Wow......!

What spreads in front of me was the sight of blue covering all over the horizon.

The wind that carries the smell of the tide and the wave splash that returns it.

And

"Lynn... it's the sea, it's the sea! The real ocean is here!

Emilia pulls Lynn's hand and runs to the beach, taking off her shoes and going into the sea, no matter how hard she thinks.

Over and over again Emilia shouts and expresses her emotions throughout her body in an excited way, to the power of treading sand and unexpectedly strong waves and cooler than expected.

"Sea, sea, sea! Wow, that's amazing! On one side, the ocean as far as I can see! Hey, Lynn! The sea is beautiful! Shiny and pretty cold...... really, thank you for bringing me here, Lynn!

I'm laughing at how good it was to be frightened, waving with a full grin to Lynn sitting on the beach, and shuddering Emilia without showing tiredness,

"... really, it was... the ocean was also the color of phosphorus..."

This was the real reason Emilia wanted to see the ocean.

Blue, like other colors, red and yellow, has colors that cannot be accurately said in a word.

Bright blue, white diluted blue, black flavored blue, or the same clear blue as the sky.

Emilia taught that the sea the merchants were talking about changes color depending on who sees it.

Some say it's close to water, while others say it's the same dark blue as a deep lake.

And some people said it was an illusory color to be in the sky.

"... it's like you're watching over me..."

Similar to the colour of the Ethereal Eye as if looking at the sky, the colour of the sea that Emilia saw was the colour of Lynn's eyes.

The sound of the waves sounds quietly and the sounds of the birds add a touch of glamour to the scenery.

For a while Emilia, enjoying the sea, rushes to Lynn, thanking her for the shoes she was collecting, and then takes it and puts her foot in the sea again.

I flush the sand on my feet in that sea, then I put on my shoes without wiping my feet, and now I run around the sea with my shoes on.

"The colour of phosphorus... the same as the sky, the colour of clear blue..."

The sun's light reflects and the water's surface shines, and its appearance can be repainted as if reflecting the sky.

Emilia walking in it felt as if she were walking with Lynn.

Enjoying the ocean without getting tired of it, Emilia keeps playing without stopping laughing as she waves to Lynn from time to time.

Lynn looked down with a soft grin, and Emilia was happy with Lynn's smile again.

Like cleaving such a sight, the sound of a deafening bell rings.

"... um..."

Exploring and stopping the source of the sound earthquake, she woke up. Emilia woke up her upper body and had a great elongation.

"Phew, wow."

I kind of feel like I was having a really fun dream.

Even though Emilia feels unspeakable as satisfied as she is without her body to the illusion that she disappeared in the moment of awakening.

(... what, it was... I don't know, but, gladly, it made me...)

rubbing tears floating down his eyeballs,

"... happy, that was a dream ~..."

Emilia smiled happily when she could see the past again in her dreams that she had never remembered in her life.
