That day was strange from morning.
...... What?
I don't feel like cosmetics. I thought you were a taro girl. That's not a lie.
When I first met her and the second time I revisited Momoko-san's mansion, I thought that only the big fishing eyes of a woman without any makeup were distinguished and unpleasant children. I remembered a cheap doll for girls. It's a disgusting thing with only the eyelashes and eyes emphasised in vain.
And even then, that feeling did not change. It's not like Jeanne's appearance will be decent in just one day. It doesn't even have powder on it, and it's a face that has a big face. However, her skin was more glossy than that of all the girls in the special classroom.
Her face was small, and she looked up at her chin, wondering if she could wrap it with this hand. After all, her purple eyes looked prominent. To the extent that I want to take a picture of myself again with those big eyes in vain in the mirror.
You can say that you are ashamed to confirm your intentions with your mouth, but it looks strange to me. I thought it was because I looked like Lyre, but no matter how I looked at it, it was too different from that guy.
I hate you so much...
Increase your vocabulary and get back out.
I was suddenly motivated to deal with the mighty dog.
Until now, there have been no idiots who defy me with the shield behind Anchorson, but I have never wanted to fight him myself. The special classroom was also surrounded by junior nobles instead of watching them, but I didn't feel like having a proper conversation. It's always been hard for me to flirt with this guy.... If I had met him when I was a lowly person, I wouldn't even want to see him if I knew he was the one who trampled on him.
It was much easier to read back a book with a convenient ending.
I thought I'd show them my special abilities and threaten them just like the others, but once I did it, it was strangely interesting.
Jeanne was more worried about the dog than I was about the cooperation, but when she realized that I was an aristocrat, she still barked at me. I was only a little concerned with Jeanne's dog. I peeled off my fangs, pointed my young leafy eyes, and no matter how much I stirred up, I was bitten with easy-to-understand words. Rather than telling Fu, Jeanne would come back again and again to protect her.
Now that you know where I stand, you're only going to be equal. Even Jeanne and the others weren't good enough for me at first, but that friggin 'dog was from the beginning.
So. Do you still want to continue? Is this the second part of the story?
As soon as she accepted her cooperation, Jeanne began to speak up.
It wasn't the first time I asked you to cooperate. Even though I visited the materials myself, there was no thank you, and I was made to wait for more than enough.
When I came the second time, I promised to apologize to the twins rather than thank them. On the previous day, I had a smile in my eyes, but on the next day, I almost lost my face in front of you. Then it's like I've already been fooled.
Even though I could be raised as an aristocrat, I was still not socialized, but when I was in Anchorson's Mansion, there were good-faced maids everywhere.... there were more women with good faces than well-armed elderly servants to definitely keep me in a good mood.
In addition, there were many daughters with good faces in special classrooms. I was always fooled by half the face hidden in my mask, and there were many people who would sell me on the first day. If you show me my special ability and threaten "If you don't want to be ash," you're just a coward who always wrapped his tail around me and ran away.
And yet, she knew my special abilities, and she was familiar with my ears.
Even though I knew better than anyone that it would be a simple trigger to extinguish the coal, rather than touching me.
Looking under my mask, I don't want to be "like this" anymore, I think the creature called "woman".
A woman who wants to decorate with shoes, decorate with clothes, paint her face, and decorate her hair with gold. However, if you touched it and pierced it easily to the depths that I don't remember, I was a little interested.... the more I want to make you angry.
I can assure you that this has never happened before.
Ever since I was raised as Anchors, no one has ever spoken to me so familiarly, no one has ever defied me.
I didn't mean to deal with them if they showed up. I've used my special abilities to intimidate people who don't like it, so I don't let them see each other again.
It was strange that I was motivated to take on such people one by one.
I couldn't find Ryer, I didn't have the means or the tokens, I didn't have the roads, and I didn't want to lose any. But why did I feel like a good weather for a moment or even once? Why was it so suddenly cleared up in one of Lyre's faces?
The strange thing is that it doesn't end there.
"Ahh, I know you too, Jeanne and the others. Ray, right? I'm a relative of theirs."
If you go to the middle alley for information on Lyre, the knight will capture you and give you information on Lyre for the first time.
The depressed sense of narrowing the exit as I walked down the alley opened my sight again like a lie.
Heh heh! Fuck you!
What kind of lover are you?! This big liar... "
”It's always rude of him to apologize! I've never apologized to anyone since yesterday."
The next day, I was made to feel like I was dealing with other common people.
The road, the means, and the money were dwindling over time, but I was able to get Lyre's information, so even if the black flames were overflowing, they wouldn't run rampant.
No matter how much you boil, you can turn it off as soon as you try to turn it off. Before that, I didn't do anything by my own will to the back office workers who came to school, but the black flame that gave such cheeky kids a cheeky mouth was quickly extinguished.
It was possible that Liar's clue had made me feel overwhelmed. It's not from the back of my mouth, it's from a real knight. When I finally found him, I just caught his shadow, and the threads were loose enough to notice the tension on my shoulders.
No matter how much I was fooled or angry, I didn't get the strange feeling that I wanted to kill him. The same feeling I had when I was arguing with Rhea as a kid was nostalgic.
Whether it was because I got a clue from that knight about Ryer, or because I was used to dealing with a rusty dog... it was just a puzzle.
I'm not going to be a kid enough to sell a fight to anyone who can win. But Jeanne was already defeated. At a time when a woman is stronger than a backstage worker in a meatball battle, we can only think of her as a carnivorous creature, a pig, or a bear, but even if we think about it now, it's all because of her. All of a sudden, we lost our backside of Anchorson, and our pockets widened to the unnecessary.
Please come again. I hope that someday [you and I] will become friends...... ”
...... I've met Rhea.
We finally met. It was just Thomas, but he was still the man we were looking for.
I lost my memory and forgot all about me, my old way of talking and my old tone. At first, I couldn't accept it and I was going crazy.
I didn't know what I was talking about or what was going on until the moment I lost consciousness. The fact that I had met Lyre and the fact that I had forgotten about you and become a completely different person seemed to make me ash from the inside.
After all that waiting and searching, I finally found out that the existence I was looking for had disappeared.
Even when I wake up and see him again, the feeling of being struck by someone with a similar face is still unforgettable for the rest of my life. It was similar when Lyre had a nightmare of dying.
If Thomas had just listened to me, I might not have even thought of seeing him again.
...... could you take off the mask and show me?
Until I get that word.
Even if Jeanne told me that it was an extra suggestion, I couldn't give up hope.
Whether the man in front of me is a man with a face similar to Ryer or himself, I have only one way to test it from the beginning.
Unlike this special ability, which looks at everyone's cowardice or money. Either this face hidden in the mask brings out the disgust... or the old face.
Unlike when I tried Jeanne, my fingertips trembled faintly as I removed the mask, and my throat dried up terribly in a flash. Unlike her opponent, if it weren't for Rhea herself in front of her, her fear would be misplaced.
If it's true that I'm the same person, it's not Lyre who reacts when she shows the mask, and if it's raw sympathy, I want to die. At that time, I was afraid to look directly at it. If the man you've been looking for isn't Lyre, you'll be able to hit him with a blade.
In the face of Lyre.... I can't say how much I've been saved. Six years of tears did not stop the moment I was rewarded.
Unfortunately, I couldn't face it without that extra advice from Jeanne. I left the castle that day so I wouldn't have to see Thomas again.
If I had never had to look him in the eye again, I might have appeared in the castle with my own feet.... if I did that, I wouldn't even have met the real Lyre.
Ray-chan...
Why did you regain your memory?
I suddenly remembered seeing you. Even if you say that, it won't be easy to sort it out if you don't have time to heal your weakness like you've been rowing a boat for a long time. Besides, it was Jeanne who brought her here again.
This time, there were no two surrounding them, and they stumbled along with their guardian knights.
I still don't know how I recovered Rhea's memory. But no matter how much I lied, I don't think that Thomas was acting to fool me. If I were you, I'd still burn and hit you.
It was like having a relative who was the Captain of the Knights of the Kingdom. Was it a Special Ability or a way to get Ryer's memory back?
As long as Jeanne is a different Special Ability, I don't think she did it. I wonder if that knight was that kind of ability.
Then why are you hiding it from me at first and now? Even if you want to hear it, you can't pursue it anymore. We can't let Lyre be Thomas again in vain.
Anyway, Ryer lied to me and hid one or two clues. There is also a great possibility that you remember why you actually recovered your memories. When I noticed, I took back my memories and asked my friend Jeanne to bring me here.
I don't remember when I was Thomas, I don't remember when I got my memories back... I just think it's enough to remember me.
I can't believe all of those convenient stories. Besides, it's Jeanne and her lying Lyre.
It was the intention of Thomas and Rhea to remember everything that happened with you. That's for sure. "
That word is cowardly.
As much as you said when you first dumbfounded me.
I really thought Thomas would be enough for a while.
Even if Rhea couldn't recover her memories, I might have been in the same position as Thomas after all the punishment. No matter how much livestock smells, it's not the life of a lower class of dust accumulators or jailers.
Still, we can't change it if we can get to Rhea herself.
Unlikely coincidences and miracle repetitions, Jeanne herself ends with the words “Rhea's will” rather than her own merits or abilities. If I have been searching for him for many years and you tell me that this is not only what I wanted, but also what [Ryer] wanted, I can't deny it anymore. The sensation of my heart expanding with my lungs and the amount of blood that became hotter than my own flame made me speechless.
I still don't know the true nature of the trembling vibration in the back of my eyes, or why I suppressed myself trying to touch that woman. I should have touched it if I wanted to, but at that time, I couldn't help it.
With the throat thin and painful, I wondered why this woman could easily say what I wanted.
And why does a woman who has come this far to me keep it to herself, or why she doesn't even try to owe me a favor at all?
If Rhea doesn't remember why she really regained her memories, she can take care of herself. And yet, I don't even know what I wanted to do, disguising all the coincidences and hiding them. It would have been easy for me to understand if I wanted anything, whether it was plain clothes or a mansion where all the property was left.
The woman who just takes Lyre and leaves without even taking her meal is really going nowhere.─
We just want to help you.
...... I noticed Jeanne leaving for the carriage and took off the mask.
The woman's reaction hasn't changed from what I just showed her. Despite all that, Jeanne couldn't help but feel the urge to leave without further hindrance.
Unlike the heavy black impulse when I rampaged my Special Ability, I just wanted to tell you something. It was humiliating to use words from within without knowing what it was, and it was easier to just take off the mask.
It felt as if it was only natural to expose the ugly, frightened left half. I thought it was something like that for a common woman, but I felt like if I didn't take off the mask there and just closed my mouth, I would keep getting caught in the chest for the rest of my life. Even now, I have no regrets for that act.
It's not a threat, it's not a trial. For the first time, I saw her off with an ugly bare face with other emotions.
