"What's wrong, Mr. Alphonse? Are you feeling ill?
"Nh, that's right. I may not have a little appetite."
"It's unusual. Until now, I haven't been very sick... Now, let's bring you something easy to eat."
Eye came into the room and looked at me and said so. [M]
Apparently, my condition is strange even from the eye. [M]
Shall I give in to Eye?
I don't believe what Norn said, but I'm terribly tired.
With this state of affairs, I don't want to see my brother Ars right now.
I left the room once and waited until Eye came back again.
After a while, the eye with the meal came back.
Soft bread and warm soup.
Apparently, the cook who serves at the royal residence of Charles is also familiar with the food of the sick.
The light flavor did not make me physically exhausted. For me, the meal ended quickly.
But I didn't want to eat any more.
Because I've been thinking about the same thing in my head for a long time.
I've never thought about it before.
I resemble brother Ars.
I never dreamed it would bother me so much.
"Hey, Eye. I need to ask you something, okay?
"Yes, what is it, Mr. Alphonse?"
"For example. For example, how can you create another human body like me?
No matter how much you think about it, there is no answer.
It was as if he had dived into a labyrinth in his head.
A dark labyrinth where you don't know how far you're going to get to the answer.
I couldn't attack such a labyrinth without knowing the destination, the map, or even the destination. [M]
That's why I asked for help.
In the magic labyrinth, Eye led me to the exit.
In the same way, I relied on Eye to answer this unanswered question.
……………………
But Eye won't answer.
No matter how long you waited, you didn't answer my question. [M]
Whether or not you can create another person's own body.
Yes or no, it's just a simple question of which one to answer.
(I see. It's settled, Alphonse. Apparently, the doll knows the answer. I don't think I'm going to answer that.)
Norn flies his thoughts when I'm surprised and unable to say anything about Eye's response. [M]
And Norn is probably right.
I've been in contact with Eye and I've been talking a lot.
Eye knows very well.
I hear that this is because Eye was originally born to gather and organize information.
It seems that the eye with the body here is just another way of using it.
Ask questions about a knowledgeable eye.
It has happened many times before.
And then Eye answered me very easily.
Answer the question clearly.
If it is a question that can be answered with yes or no, it will answer one of them, and if it asks for any explanation, it will answer it.
Or say "I don't know" if Eye doesn't know anything.
In other words, they rarely respond.
But there are exceptions.
Occasionally, Eye doesn't respond to a question.
That was when it fell under the prohibition.
Eye knows everything.
That's why I was familiar with so many things that I knew too much.
And some of them are not supposed to be outside.
Sometimes, for example, involving the Kingdom of the Sky falls under a prohibition.
We're not supposed to answer questions that could threaten the country.
And who decides how.
Only two people in the world can set a prohibition on Eye.
Brother Ars and brother Kyle.
These two are the only ones who can do it.
Can you make another body like yours?
I don't think anyone usually asks Eye such a question.
If you were there, you'd just say you couldn't.
But Eye didn't answer.
In other words, this question touched on the prohibitions set for my brothers.
But why?
If you can't, you don't have to set Eye not to talk about it.
That means we can do it.
I don't know how, but there are ways to create the same body as myself.
Eye knows it, but she's decided not to tell anyone.
And Mr. Ars knows that there's a way.
I can make a new body for myself.
Maybe you can make a body that looks just like your brother Ars.
Maybe I am?
"Ugh...."
"Are you all right, Mr. Alphonse?
When I realized that, I stumbled on my mouth.
I feel like throwing up the meal I just ate.
It's disgusting.
I lie down with my eye rubbing my back.
But I'm not feeling well.
It feels like your stomach fluid is refluxing.
In this way, my question to Eye, who was supposed to have asked for help, brought my doubts closer to certainty, and I once again slipped into bed to escape from it.
