Sougen no Okite ~Shii Yatsu ga Moteru, Ii Buzoku ni Umarekawatta zo~

I've seen Malo's horn and Zoo alternate over and over again.

"Why, why, why, Zoo"

"Because I thought this was the only way to stop it."

"Can't you stop it?

I don't know what that means.

"What do you mean?

"Himika said. When I say goodbye, your husband will supposedly use the meadow treasure. So stop your husband then. and"

Always bright. Zoo, who imitates other people's words, says seriously.

"I have confirmed Master Jumka's will by knowing the location of the grassland treasure. That's when I found out. Absolutely. When your husband uses this, and I'm not smart enough to convince your husband like Master Lucci, I don't have the power to force him to stop. So, I guess I'll just have to hide it before your husband uses it!

Zu complains in tears. Such Zu's tears hurt my chest. But, but I'm not convinced. Why does Himika...?

"Why not? Himika."

I hold my head and squeal.

I can't think of anything right now. What shall we do......

"Zu Punishment thinks later. Let me be alone a little bit now."

"Okay."

Zu left the room with his head down with a pepper.

Once I went to the bathroom for a favor, I tried to get back to my room.

Noel was standing in front of the room, wandering around in front of the room.

"Noel, what's going on?

When I spoke, Noel stiffened his body and looked at this one in a chill.

"Master, I have something for you."

Is there something wrong with Noel?

"Okay. Inside."

I put Noel in my room.

"Sir, I need you to, uh, soundproofing."

That's what Noel said, so I put some soundproofing magic in the room.

"Is this it?

'Yeah, thanks. You'

Noel spoke to me in Japanese.

"Something to give, by the way."

This is it.

That's what Noel said. He took the folded paper out of his clothes.

"Read it, you"

Open the folded paper.

There's a well-known Noel letter running inside.

Read the letters inside. The letters belong to Noel, but not what's written inside.

I feel Himika in every word written.

"This is..."

I was stuck in words by the shock.

"You know, it's your will."

Noel tells me to calm down in my heart and load inside.

It is a letter that begins with a thank you to Noel for writing this letter.

He talks about his gratitude so far and how happy he was.

He speaks the same words over and over again about how happy he was.

"Here, it's written before."

"Yeah, because I fixed the word that she said to the south and it stayed in the letters."

Noel reacts to a word he leaked.

And Himika had affirmed that the child in her belly was the last at the end of the letter.

I miss breaking up with you, but you have given me so much happiness that I have no regrets.

The last thing it said was that my own child wanted Jesus to inherit it it.

If the next child is me and Mr. Jesus. Even if they're both girls, Mr. Jesus won't have to go to Spiritual Mountain with two boys. I'd love to be able to use it so that even my child like this doesn't let Jesus, whose husband is adorable, head to Spiritual Mountain.

And it was closed.

That sentence was the limit. Hot stuff keeps creeping up behind my eyes.

My hands tremble. Paper trembles. There was a crack in the paper.

Put the paper down once to calm down and take a deep breath.

If you calm down, your grief will overflow.

"Himika, Himika"

Noel is the only one here. And the soundproofing magic keeps the sound from leaking outside.

Tears overflow from the eyes and voices leak from that sense of security.

I rounded my body and put my face on the ground. I just cried.

Noel didn't say anything about it. He just kept staring at me.

I still feel sad because I cried, but I was able to calm down a little.

"Hey, (Noel)"

"What, you?

"Why didn't (Himika) accept the extension?

…… My speculation, okay?

"Oh."

"I don't think she accepted a life extension for you."

"For me?

'Yeah, think about it, what do you think would happen to the (Longa) women's power relationship if they used those horns on Mr. (Himika)?

I might have understood a little with a word from Noel. That's one of the meadow treasures. What will become of Himika's position as she was used to it, and of Lucci, Zoo, and the other children?

Not only that. It could damage the very backbone of grassland women society.

"Maybe this tribal women's society will be in unimaginable drool. Then your stock that did that will go down. I don't think you wanted me to do that."

I can't say anything back. Surely she will be right. Think that far...... No, you didn't think enough of me... But still, Himika.

Himika's reluctant smile flashes back over and over in her head.

"You said (Himika) was happy, didn't you?

"Yeah, I wrote it like I was told."

"I was making (Himika) happy, right?

'Yeah, I think so, even if I cut my life in pregnancy and childbirth, I think I was happy to have your baby'

I repeated Noel's words in my head.

Pregnancy and childbirth are a daunting load for the mother. I guess I cut my life exactly as Noel said to Himika, who was weakened by burns.

"Where, did I go wrong? Would (Himika) have lived a long life if she had spent a little time pregnant and giving birth?

I muttered to myself.

"No, Mr. (Himika) probably would have headed for Mount Ganoderma if he hadn't conceived your child for six months."

I had to convince Noel to give it back.

Then we have to take Himika... No. Then no one would have dealt with me and I would have gone to Spirit Mountain.

"(Himika), but if (Himika) doesn't bear the burn,"

"Stop."

Noel shouted at my whining.

"Stop, more than that, please"

'What's the matter with you?

Noel is shaking his body.

'Please. Don't think any further, I'm afraid that your affection will turn. So, please.'

Noel shudders and says many favors and bows his head.

'I can't live if you hate me. It's not just life, I'm afraid my heart will hate you too, so, that's why.'

I think about it a little bit. Why Himika suffered a burn. It stems from the fact that the Patriarchate has attacked this meadow.

And Noel is the man who was on the side of that attacking Patriarchate.

Right, right, even Noel knows that.

"Sorry, (Noel), it's okay."

That's how I get close to Noel.

But Noel only leaves as close as I get.

"I don't deserve to say anything more about Mr. (Himika). Sorry. I'm sorry. '

Get closer and hug Noel faster than he leaves.

'I'm fine. I won't abandon you. So let me do this now, I just want to hold you and cry'

'I can't. I don't deserve to be comforted by the loss of Mr. (Himika).'

'Well, who, then, comforts me? You're the only one who can show me weakness and comfort me. (Noel)'

"Ugh, ugh."

Noel's body went quiet.

I can't get laid because I'm pregnant, but just holding Noel calms my heart.

'Um, can I go pick the flowers?

That's what Noel said when he finally gave up or lost his body power.

To pick flowers...... toilet?

That's what I thought, and when I let him out of the hug, Noel walked out of the room with the sleaze.

I waited in the center of the room looking behind the room.

After a while, I felt signs of coming into the room.

He's slowly approaching me.

The moment you stood directly behind me, you grabbed your hand, drew it to your nose, and buried your face in your chest.

"Um, Master Jumka?

Is that it? This voice?

Besides, the clothes that looked chilly when I buried my face in my chest were definitely purple, and this hugging softness, the softness of my chest...

I'll look up and check.

It was Lucci who was there.

Silent and weird air flows through each other.

It was Lucci who spoke out first.

"Um, Master Jumka"

"What the fuck, Lucci?"

"I've come to ask Noel to comfort Master Jumka."

Lucci put his hand on my jaw and stroked it.

"Did you cry about this scar, the redness of your eyes, Master Jumka?

On Lucci's sad face I shook my head with a hard expression resenting Noel.

"That's not true."

If you don't deny it here, maybe I'll be hated by Lucci. Lucci will know it's a lie, but I still have to.

"Really?"

Lucci looks lonely and strokes my cheek over and over.

I have Lucci's face in front of me.

Those eyes were red. Maybe Lucci also grieved and cried at Himika's death.

"I do not consider Lady Jumka vulnerable to Himika's death"

Lucci turned her hand around my neck and hugged me.

"I think you are kind to Master Jumka, who mourns Himika's death. Strong, gentle, proud great great warrior. I think that's Master Jumka."

Lucci speaks to me quietly and slowly.

One word of Lucci, one word stabs me in the chest.

He unknowingly turned his hand around Lucci's back and hugged him full of strength.

"Master Jumka, it hurts."

"I... Weak. It's just that Himika's, death, hard"

"Master Jumka is not weak. Strong and gentle."

I couldn't stop crying from my eyes.

Lucci's hand stroked from his neck to his head.

When Lucci's soft hand moved my head, it amplified my peace of mind.

They all look happy when I stroke everyone's head. I thought I knew what that meant.

I won't tolerate it anymore.

I buried my face in Lucci's chest, just crying, screaming Himika. Lucci didn't say anything, he kept stroking my head.

I don't know how much I cried. However, I feel my heart has become much lighter from the peace of mind accepted by Lucci.

It involved sitting like my usual adorable way out of the state where I was holding him across the street.

Lucci isn't small either, but he's a lot smaller than my body. He's hugging me from behind, pulling out his body and holding me.

"But I'm glad."

"What is it?

"Noel was able to monopolize this gentle Master Jumka, but he gave it to me."

Indeed it is.

Weak me is what Noel was showing me. That means Noel let it go.

"I don't know. But Noel must have had something to think about."

"Right."

Time flies when we don't say anything to each other.

But there is no awkwardness or discord there. It's just that the air of trusting and loving each other doesn't require words.

Quiet and sweet time kept flowing.

A few days later

I was sitting down, using a knife and sharpening a tree.

Round your head. Elongate your body. It's a puppet like a skeleton from a previous life.

Stop sharpening and let go a little to see.

Complete the sharpening further where the sharpening is slightly sweet.

"What is it? What is it?

"Nothing."

Zu listened as he watched my work.

After that, Zoo was to be punished once and for all for the work of the tribe.

Zu is also pregnant, and he didn't punish me for heavy labor because he shouldn't have publicly told me not to use Malo's horns.

Externally, I passed it as a labor of punishment for accidentally destroying my treasure.

"Master Jumka, the chief told me to come because I needed to talk to you. Everything seems to have begun to break into Kyokokokoku."

Sequilo came running into Pao.

"Okay, I'm coming."

Place the completed doll (hiccups) next to the two small dolls (hiccups).

I'm coming, Himika, you said you were happy, but I'm not convinced. In order not to increase the number of unfortunate children like you, I will destroy the Patriarchate thoroughly this time.

He looked back and looked at the doll and left Pao and headed to Temsy.
