When the Colts were talking to the Woodbells.

Three people, Ichiya, Barletta and Reese, who left the south gate of the fort, were walking side by side to the woods.

As escorts, there are about ten young people from the village of Grisea, including Isaac, Habel and Nina, who rendezvous in front of the gate.

In a few dozen meters, it's the forest entrance.

"Naturally, it's dark in the woods at night"

When he sees the woods that are about to spread out in front of him, Ichigo says.

There is a moon in the sky that is half missing, illuminating the earth, but the light has not reached the back of the forest.

Beyond the forest entrance, where the thin soot could be seen, seemed good as the pitch-black darkness of the abyss continued everywhere.

"Reese, can you see in the woods?

"You can't see it. It's not dark."

"Right. What about Mr. Isaac and Mr. Havel?

Ichigo walks and looks at the two behind him.

"No, I can barely see it"

"Me too. If you go into the woods for a little while, I'm sure your eyes will get used to it."

Isaac and Habel continue to answer.

They were in the night forest at the fold of the Zirconia rescue operation, but at that time they could not use light sources such as Matsukira, so they had quite a hard experience with almost nothing in sight.

"Can you see Mr. Nina?

Ichigo looks back at Nina.

"Ah, yes. It's a little dark, but you can see it right."

"What? It's so dark? Amazing!"

Reese also looks back and sees Nina.

"Eh heh. Well, I'm a countryman. When I was in the village, it was normal to be dark at night."

"In comparison, Isteria can be bright even at night! If you wake up in the bathroom in the middle of the night, you'll feel safe."

"Yes, yes. Unlike this one, if it was a village and I wanted to pee at night, I'd have to go into the dark bathroom."

"If you don't pay attention, you're going to stick your foot in the bathroom hole. When I was a kid, I did it a few times."

Nina and her daughters say they are adorable.

For a while now, they had been in pattern for a lot of chatting with Leese.

One reason is that since Selette, who was in charge of security in Reese's room, was transferred to the Guard Corps in the village of Grisea, the Ninas will instead take turns for security, giving them more opportunities to talk.

"Nice, you guys have good eyes. It's not like me."

"Don't you see Master Kazura?

"Hey, me, my eyes aren't good at all at night and I can't do it at all. You can see Mr. Barletta, too, right?

When Ichiyoshi shook the story, Baretta nodded quickly.

Behind me, my daughters talk about, "God has good eyes, bad eyes," etc.

"Yes, I can see it. It's hard to be thin."

"What, thin?

Ichiyoshi sees Barletta with a strange face.

"Didn't you see clearly in the dark woods when we went out to visit Isteria from the village of Grisea together before?

"I was fine in the dark back then... I think I've gotten a little blind lately"

You were aware, Barletta laughs embarrassingly.

Before going to bed every night since coming to Isteria, Baretta had made it her routine to read a good book and historical materials from the library.

The LED lantern I got for reading.

It's a very bright and convenient substitute, but I guess it's not very good for the eyes to use as a light source in a dark room.

"Maybe you read a book late every night?

"Uh... yes"

"It's bad for your eyes to read a book in the dark, isn't it? Because it's hard to get your eyesight back once it's down."

"Ugh, right...... I wish I had an eyewear store over here. If only you had glasses, you wouldn't have bad eyes."

"No, I don't know about Hecha... but I'd like to see Barletta's glasses. I'm sure it suits you."

"What? Oh, really?

"Eyeglasses? What's that?

To the story of the two, Reese snaps her mouth.

"Even people with bad eyes are a tool that makes them look like they did when they had good eyes by putting them on. Clear glass and plastic plates made in this shape are what you see."

Barletta makes a circle with both hands and puts it in the eye to show it.

"Hmmm...... oh, there was someone in the magazine who put that on, right? That wasn't a stylish tool."

"Looks like you have some stylish glasses. Also, it looks like there are glasses for people who are getting old and have difficulty seeing things nearby."

"It is. McGregor said, 'Recently, I've been having trouble seeing things nearby.' Kazura, next time you chew... when you get back over there, can you get McGregor some glasses?

Leese forgets that Nina and Isaac are there and is about to say "Japan," and rushes back to saying it.

"Oh, that's good. If it's for presbyopia, it's fine."

"Do you want some Valletta glasses, too? You're losing your eye, aren't you?

"No, it's called short-sightedness that makes things hard to see nearby, but you can't make glasses without a proper examination."

"Heh, you have a kind of bad eye, too. How do you do the tests?

"We're going to draw a letter C on the paper, and we're going to distance ourselves a little bit. Test to see what distance the C line isn't connected to."

"Oh, that sounds kind of funny! I'd like to try it tomorrow."

Reese suggests with an exciting face.

"Oh, that sure sounds interesting. But we can't do it right away without a dedicated table even if we're going to inspect it."

"Uh, really? Can't we make it ourselves?

"I don't know the rules in detail either. Oh, but if you look at the encyclopedia, maybe..."

"Randall ring, right? It was detailed, so I'll make it when I get back to my quarters."

To Barletta's offer, Leese said, "Whoa!" Raise your voice.

"Sasa but Barletta! I'll help you make it, too. The encyclopedia has everything on it."

"Hehe, right. It said so many things, and it was so much fun."

"Reese, Mr. Barletta memorizes the entire page of the encyclopedia."

"... Huh?

To a good shocking remark, Leese sees a good one with a decent face.

And I saw Barletta on the other side of it.

"I'm sure that one had an awesome number of pages... how many?

"Uh... that's page 24971"

"You remember all that? Really?"

"Yes. For once."

Everyone but Ichigo turns a startling glance at Barletta, who snorts.

Isaac and Nina don't know what the encyclopedia is, but at a time when they memorize all the contents of a huge number of pages of books, I know it's not normal.

"Barletta, you're really the same person I am, aren't you? What's going on with that head?

I stare at Barletta with the kind of eyes that Reese sees, even the scary ones.

"Mr. Barletta, you taught me how to remember before, didn't you? Maybe Leese can do it, right? Why don't you tell him?

"Yep..."

I see Barletta with a troubled face the good things she says with the expression she obviously enjoys.

Previously, when I told him how to remember, he immediately denied that "only Mr. Barletta can do it," but he was deeply troubled.

Without knowing such a thing in Barretta's mind, Leese is intrigued and so on.

"What, there's a way!? Tell me too!

"That... it's like taking a picture of what you see, remember, keep it in your head. When you want to look back, it feels like you see the scene in your head -"

"There's no way you can do that!? Are you kidding me?

"Hih!? Oh, you don't have to be mad at me. Awesome!? Because that's really what I'm doing!

"Haha, I knew I couldn't do it normally"

"Become!? Mr. Kazra, it's terrible! This is unreasonable! Not really!"

I'm laughing irresponsibly. For the best, Barletta swells her cheeks.

"What? My fault?

"It's like Mr. Kazura pissed me off by Master Leese because of you. Yikes!

That's how as we walked in the noise, we reached the forest entrance together.

Okay, and Ichigo looks at everyone behind him.

"Then it's me and Liese and Mr. Barletta ahead...... Ba, Mr. Barletta, I'm so sorry. Forgive me."

Ichigo apologizes to Barletta, who is in a flurry.

"... I'll forgive you if Mr. Kazra picks out glasses that I think would suit me"

"Wow, I get it. You have to have it measured with a special measuring instrument to make degrees of eyeglasses, so can I have Dada eyeglasses?

"Yes, I'm fine"

Barletta smiles at me.

Apparently, you fixed my mood.

As a matter of fact, Barletta may be happy to have an excuse to choose her glasses for herself.

"Uh, nice! Kazra, me too!

"Okay, okay. Look, we're going into the woods. Ladies and gentlemen, please wait a moment."

"You'll be questioned about Kazura's taste! Pick a good fit, huh?

He said, "Okay. I'll compare you over there, so let me take a picture of you later. Mr. Barletta, please."

"Yes!"

While we talk about it, the three of us go into the woods.

Habel looked to Isaac standing next to her as she dropped him off.

"Dear Isaac, now, but I think you should give up on Master Leese, right?

"Shut up. It's an extra favor"

And Isaac eats his fist bones at Havel's head.

Havel blurred, "I'm saying it with kindness," and dropped off the back of the good guys who were leaving.

"Ugh, it's dark...... I should have had the lights too"

Leese clings to her good arm as she walks through the gutters and grass.

There's only one pen light in good hands.

"How far do you walk? Until Master Ormachiol comes out?

"No, it doesn't necessarily come out because I went to the back of the woods. Instead, you're pretty anxious that Reese will be with you and come see you."

"Uh... Kazla and Barletta, have we met separately?"

"Yeah. I've talked to you many times. Was Mr. Barletta twice?

Ichigo talks to Barletta.

"Yes, I told you in person when I was charcoal-burning in the mountains and when you saved me from Barbell's cavalry"

"Oh well... nice, just the two of us. It's like I'm the only one who's hurt."

Reese says a little lonely.

"Well, don't say that. I can't do this anymore."

"Yeah......"

That's how they walked for a while, and the three stopped.

Probably walked 300-400 meters.

"Hmm. I guess I can't all of a sudden... but I can't get in touch with you."

"No matter how much, Master Ormachiol, it may be tough without prior contact."

Ichigo and Barletta say as they look around.

"Next time I see you, why don't you decide on some kind of contact signal or something? It's always so inconvenient."

"Well... you should give it to me on the radio and have it. I should have had it."

"But you can't push the button, can you, Master Olmasior? It's the hands and feet of a beast."

"Look, there's someone you can turn into. It's okay."

"Oh, are you from a brunette? What's he like?

"Hmm... she's a great beauty and all I know is that it's a hobby to surprise people"

"God, you have an annoying taste..."

Talk sloppily as you are, waiting for the emergence of black women and uribows.

But no matter how long they wait, they don't show up.

"It's not coming. Should I give this up now?"

"Ugh... I'm getting kind of sleepy..."

Reese sits on the spot with a tired face.

"It's late for the night. Shall we go back?"

"Yeah...... let's wait a little longer"

"I'm sorry I let you hang out with me."

……

"Mr. Barletta? What's the matter, sir?

Ichigo tilts his little neck at Barletta, who has a slightly more rugged face.

"... no, it's nothing. Shall we sit and wait?"

Ichigo and Barletta sit down on the spot, too.

Then Reese was about to have her head on her good shoulder.

"Reese?"

"Sorry... sleepy..."

And soon, Reese began to sleep easily.

I think this is a good idea, and I turn to my neighbor Barletta.

Baretta was sweating on her forehead, biting her lips, holding both arms and standing her nails up.

"Mr. Barletta, could..."

"Probably when it's time to come...... I think"

Barletta also seems to be experiencing a lot of drowsiness.

Ichigo doesn't feel anything in particular.

At that time, a slight sound was heard from the front of the good men as they stepped on the stirrups and fallen leaves.

As a matter of fact, two people look at you.

Two glowing golden balls floated in the dark woods.

As he seeped out of the darkness, Uribo, the giant body, slowly walked up to a few meters in front of the good guys.

"What can I do for you?

Uribou, a giant body, moved his mouth and spoke in a low voice.

When Ichiyoshi rushed to stand up, Barletta grabbed that arm.

"Mr. Barletta?

"Give me your hand... give me your hand..."

Supported well, Barletta rises in a hazy manner.

Uribou looked at it, and, uh, snorted.

"As always, that's a great strength of will. It's something you can't sleep in."

"I knew you guys were doing this, right?

When Ichigo heard, Uribo nodded lightly.

"If we don't do this, we're gonna get involved with extra people."

Uribou turns his attention to Reese.

"He says that deep engagement with our humans makes it easier to connect to a bad future. From now on, I'd like you to come alone, if possible. With so many people, this power doesn't seem to make sense."

"What, you say it's not good... uh, a black woman said it?

"Mm-hmm. Well, from me, keep your shoulders up to this point. I don't think so."

Uribou sits on the spot.

"So, what can we do for you?

"Uh... Colts, I wanted to ask you about you"

"Is that the kid he was eyeing? What's wrong with you?

"For a while now, I've been missing. I was wondering if you knew where he was."

"I don't know. I've heard him tell the kid to stay next to you. Daimyo, aren't you somewhere in the fort?

"No, I don't know that either... Um, can you help me find him? Follow the smell or something."

"Hmm. Do you have any belongings that smell like a kid?

That's what they say, and Ichigo hangs out.

I don't have any Colts belongings on hand or in the fort, and I pay for all the bikes, even if I go to the Isteria to pick them up.

Even though I had no choice for Lugro's safety, I still regretted that I should have left about one.

"Don't you? Well, he'll know what it smells like, so I'll tell him later."

"Oh well. If she... Um, isn't she around now?

"No. I'm watching the rest of the country with the rest of them. There are few of us in this country right now."

"What. Could it be for us?

Unexpected words surprise me.

"Mm-hmm. Like the battle in the meantime, if you get caught off guard and you lose a lot, you don't have an ex or a kid. With a slight force, let us increase."

Uribo turns his attention to Valletta.

Barletta is standing in a state of hardship while being well supported.

"I'm going to work hard to do that for how long. Just fall asleep."

"I don't like it... Mr. Kazra, I'll protect you..."

Barletta stares at Uribou, though hazy.

"What, you think I'm gonna eat this guy?

"No. They're going to take Mr. Kazra somewhere... and I'm scared."

When Barletta said, Barletta looked like Uribo's eyes had softened a little.

"You look like those two."

"... those two?

Barletta listens back.

"Only the souls, wandering in the woods."

To that word, an agitation runs into Barletta's eyes.

I remember stories of hundreds of years apart and searching for each other, fears gushing from the bottom of my heart.

"Well, I guess it's time to go"

Uribou rises.

"One of these days, he'll be visiting. Wait a while."

When Uribo said so, he turned his heel back and vanished into the darkness.

As soon as possible, the force falls out of Barletta's leg and he kneels on the spot.

"Wow!? Barretta!?

Ichiyana tried to support Barletta, but she knelt herself without strength in her legs.

"Yes, come on... this has happened before. He said he was half asleep. Mr. Barletta, are you all right?

"Ugh, I'm losing my head...... I can't help my legs. Mr. Kazra, are you all right?

Caring for the good as Barletta puts her hands on her own head.

"It's okay. Reese... you're sleeping."

When Ichiyoshi looked next door, Reese lay on the ground and slept easily.

His face, body, leaves and twigs seem to be all over him.

"When I met them before, you said something like, 'I can't talk about it without fogging my consciousness,' right? Maybe it's because of that."

"Fog on consciousness, is it? When I met you before, that didn't happen..."

That's what Baretta says, says it like she remembers, "Ah."

"Speaking of which, Master Ormachiol wasn't moving his mouth then. It was like talking directly to my head."

"Hmm. He was moving his mouth and talking earlier, and it was the same when I met him, wasn't it? I guess it felt like we were talking in a dream."

"Maybe. Maybe that's what we were doing because we were there."

Barletta looks behind the woods.

There are no more ulibows there, just dark woods spreading.

"Well, is it time to go back? Everyone will be worried."

"Yes, Master Reese, please wake up"

Barletta rocks Reese's shoulder.

"Ngu...... Yihihi, Kazura. Amen......"

With Reese lying down, she's nibbling and saying her bedtime words.

The voice color is glossy, but what the hell are you dreaming about?

"Ugh, you sleep a lot. Am I going to do it?"

"Hey Kazura, wow..."

"Huh!? No, I'll wake you! Master Reese, please wake up!

Barletta grabs Reese's shoulder and rocks her guts.

"I can't do that... ah"

"Master Reese, wake up! Wake up!!

"...... hmm. Oh, that?

I look at Barletta with a surprising look as Reese opens her thin eyes and blushes in front of her.

I looked at the good that was peeking into me and sighed unfortunately, "Ha."

"What a dream... too bad"

"Master Reese, please stand. Let's go home."

Barletta grabs Reese's arm with a straight face and makes him stand up.

"Uh... shall we go home? Ha."

"Ugh. It was a good place...... and what about Master Ormachiol?

"I'm done. I talked to him, and he went home."

"Uh? While I'm asleep? Wake me up."

Ugh, and Reese makes a disgruntled face.

"That being said... I'll explain as I go home, so let's go back to everyone"

So the three of them went back down to everyone waiting at the entrance to the woods.

Reese seemed to have a lot of allergic dreams, niggered at seeing a good face on the road as a flicker, and Barletta was a fluke.
