Sword of the Philosopher
Observations of the future
Leaze!
When I called her, she noticed. I was surprised to see your reaction.
"Luon, why..."
"I don't sleep and wake up, so I interfered with the tools and entered."
With that word, she seemed to understand everything.
"I see you've been worried... I'm sorry"
Are you okay?
"Yes. The tools seem to be out of my hands, but the magical potency remains intact, so I can see the various worlds... that might have been possible."
Can you go back?
Leaze smiled bitterly as she asked.
"To tell the truth, I was worried about what to do." However, if you're worried about it, has it been longer than I thought? "
”I see... my consciousness will be able to tell when it comes into contact with Leaze's consciousness, so I said I'd use it to pull it... I'll just have to wait for the rest”
Anverate should be working on it by now. Then I'll just have to wait.
At that time, I heard an explosion on the other side of the hall. The knights were fighting... but I knew they were outnumbered. It's only a matter of time before this place falls.
"...... this is a possible future, right?"
Leaze spoke immediately. And I shake my head left and right,
"But it's the future I didn't choose." I've never teamed up with the Zildyne Kingdom in a battle with the Demon King, but... you drove the Demon tribe back on your own. It didn't happen like this... so that's the end of the story, right? "
Maybe that's how it should be.
Something bothering you?
During the conversation, a voice is heard from the back of the door. Probably not for long. It was only a matter of time before the present people ended up with the monsters...
"... I see."
Leaze replied. Her gaze was directed at herself...... Leaze struggling in this hall.
"When the Demon King invaded, I responded with all my might and moved." As a result, we succeeded in pushing back the demons... but if the cogs were crazy somewhere, we would have come to this end. And apparently, it could have been quite a case. "
"... did you see the world that ended up like this before you came to this world?"
Leaze nodded silently. "I see..."
"I did everything I could to push back the demons, but if something was wrong... if something was wrong on the path that I don't even know the right answer to, the Gildain Kingdom would be over."
What do you think about that?
”... I admit, it's getting sentimental.”
Leaze smiles bitterly. A world where her country is ravaged. When I saw it, there was something I thought about.
However, it's not like it's happening right now... so when I tried to call out, I heard something hit the door.
The people in the hall scream. At last, there's a monster in this place... and with that kind of mood, I saw Leaze.
Did you see the end, or did you...? So Leaze caught sight of it for once. In an instant, a part of the door was destroyed and a monster entered.
No knights were guarding the door anymore. In addition to the remaining knights and soldiers in the hall, Leaze also took Halvard and challenged the monster...... So, her eyes turned pure white.
Perhaps Leaze could manipulate the world of her own accord to some extent... when she realized it, Leaze and I had come to a pure white world. A space where there is nothing in all directions. Looking at Leaze, she looked at the place where she stood trying to challenge the monster, and she seemed to be thinking about something.
"... are you okay?"
"Yeah, I'm fine."
Even so, the expression is hard. Well, I had no choice. A future that might have been possible... even if it hadn't followed through, there would have been times when I could have shown it off.
What is this space?
I ask one question. Besides, Leaze shrugged her shoulders.
It's a relay point to see the world.
“Leaze herself manipulated some of it from this place and looked into the world.”
That's it.
Leaze waved some hands. As a result, several screens float in a pure white space.
A number of scenes surfaced in the space, as if a television monitor were being shown in the air. One by one, there might have been a future... and when I think about it, I'm kind of shaking.
Luon, when can we go back?
"I don't know about that either." I think Anverate is doing a lot of things right now. "
There is no reaction yet. Gulk isn't getting tangled up, so I'll just have to wait here.
Well then, let's take a little more peek.
"I don't mind... but the atmosphere is telling me to enjoy the situation."
"I've messed with myself, so I'm reflecting on it." But if we're going to have fun anyway, we're going to have to have fun. "
”Hah... well, if you can see all kinds of worlds, I can understand the emotions.”
You may have to learn to be positive,
By the way, Sophia was pretty worried.
I'll do my best to apologize when I wake up.
Bitterly smiling, Leaze. Well, she didn't want this to happen, and I don't need to say it anymore.
"So, what do we do? Do you want me to follow you?" Since Leaze is using tools, you can't see the world from Leaze's perspective, right? ”
Well, you just have to choose what looks okay.
I don't know... I thought I'd stay here, but maybe if Leaze peeked into the world, she'd take me with her.
Well, if Leaze is good... then Leaze starts looking around.
I'll look around again... but it's a strange world. Somehow, this is what the sage's prophetic ability looked like.
I wonder, but I think about something else... For example, if I had used a tool, would it have ended better than I do now?
"... hey, Leaze"
All of a sudden, I'm asking one question.
"You can observe the future, can't you?"
"Huh? Yeah, I guess so."
"Then our future too..."
“I tried it first. But it didn't work."
That said, Leaze shrugged her shoulders again.
