"Good work day"
"You're just watching the heights."
Aldis looks away at Rona approaching with a carefree tone.
"Well, it's not like that, you've been protecting Minerva properly, but it's so easy that you don't have to check it and say what."
Rona, who answered without evil, turned her gaze to the trace of the disappeared brook.
"Aldis than that. Look at that.
When Aldis looked at him, he saw a small circular puddle that reflected light remaining on the riverbed.
"It's not water ..."
"Well, hey .... If that magic overflows, you can't just be water."
Mirror surface As Rona says, what looks like a puddle is a strange one that emits intense magic. The white flames, which remain in shape without extinguishing when exposed to Aldis's, speak for themselves.
"That's the" dense magic "that the contaminated water was saying."
Despite the suspicious Aldis, Rona is quickly approaching.
"Al, you have to find out sooner because the water will soon flow again."
"I know. Minerva and Moore are a bit far apart, it could be dangerous."
Golden Aldis replies shortly to Rona, leaving his words to Minerva and following his color buddy.
What came into their eyes looking into a circular mirror. It's not an earthy riverbed, but overgrown green trees and twigs swaying in the wind.
An invisible scene was reflected behind the shining light.
"What do you think?"
"Hmm ... it's like ... it's very similar to the hole that opens when I go to and from that world."
"Sure, it looks like it's connected somewhere else ... but couldn't it be a completely different world?"
"Isn't it so connected to all over the world? I don't think it's completely unrelated to what we've been flying, given the context."
"That's right ..."
Aldis has never heard of this phenomenon, and of course never came across it. That is happening at this time now. It's too hard to think by chance.
If Rona is the same hole as when crossing the world, it is highly likely that the other side is connected to that world.
However, it is a fact that there is not enough information to judge whether it is okay to jump in as it is. If you were to be mistakenly re-sent to a world you do not know at all, your chances of returning to a world where twins are waiting are even lower.
Moore spoke to Aldis and others who were confused.
"Hey. What happened? Was it something like that?"
"Well, there seems to be no danger, so come Minerva here."
For the time being, Rona decides that there is no direct danger and invites them.
"Wow! What's this?"
"You may not know, but there's tremendous magical power. I think it's connected to the world beyond ..."
"Do you have any confirmation?"
Minerva suddenly shouted at Moore as she heard and thought about Rona's words.
"Ah, here is ...!"
"What's wrong?"
"This forest is familiar!"
In response to these words, his gaze concentrates on Minerva.
"Is that true?"
"Yes. It's a forest near the mansion. It's a big tree you can see there, it's a tree that I always used as a landmark when I entered the forest.
Ronna turns to Aldis in response to Minerva's words with confidence.
"Well, Al."
"... I can't help taking some risk."
Originally, I would like to spend more time pondering, but there is a reason not to.
The first is the flow of time that is different from the other world. If you spend one day in this world, the whole world will flow for about one year. A few hours may have passed while thinking in this way.
Another reason is that the circular mirror in front of you is showing unwanted changes.
"Isn't it getting smaller little by little?"
"... I'd say for sure."
Minerva and Moore also noticed the change. The circular mirror surface is reduced in size, albeit slightly. Right now, it is still a size that two humans can pass through at the same time, but if you look closely, you can see that its diameter decreases.
"It looks like you've been taken into the contaminated water a lot."
Aldis agrees on Rona's guess with just the sort.
We do not know how much magic power was lost with the disappearance of the dark blue water, but at least the magical power emitted from the mirror in front of us diminished over time. It is hard to imagine that this mirror would disappear when the magic is completely lost.
"what will you do?"
Rona decides.
"... I have no choice but to go."
There are no other clues, and there is no guarantee that you will find a similar mirror again after you miss this plane. And it's clear that unless Minerva and Moore return to the world as soon as possible, they will be in trouble.
Aldis concluded that it was unavoidable to jump in with some risk.
"Then, I'm going first from me. I'll be back if I'm alone."
After buying his first hand, Rona jumped into the circular mirror without showing any hesitation.
Rona's body vanishes into a mirror surface, as if sucked into a surface of water where there is no splash. At the next moment, a golden body appeared in the forest on the other side of the mirror.
Lona looks humorous and fast-moving, and turns around to raise her forelimbs and beckon. The movement was also strangely fast, and I felt like I didn't like the flow of time here and there.
"Well, it looks okay."
"Which is next?"
Aldis asked Reluctant Minerva.
"I'll go first. The young lady will come after. Aldis should be the last, right?"
Nodding Moore sees Aldis silently, and Moore jumps into the mirror without showing any noise.
When you see it, it's Minerva's turn. Aldis gently pushed the student's back and guided him in front of the mirror.
"Are you scared, Minerva?"
The trembling of the girl is transmitted to the hand.
"... No, it's okay"
It's an obvious lie, but it's better than being afraid to stop. Aldis taps Minerva's back.
"Now, Master."
As if determined, Minerva left behind and jumped into the mirror.
All that remains is Aldis. The circular mirror is clearly getting smaller and its size is twice smaller than it was when first seen. With a little more time, the diameter will be the size that one person can or cannot pass.
Aldis was lost.
Dive into this mirror and you will probably be able to return to the world beyond. But that also means that Aldis leaves this world.
I've been worried about the consequences of the fight against that general, and what has happened to the fellows who have fought together over the last seven years. If you remain in this world as it is, you may be able to meet the surviving friends again. Even if you have no survivors, you will be able to meet those who have not participated in the defeat.
Above all, the female enemy who is the enemy of Aldis is in this world. It was not a myth that couldn't be met, but he should still be leading the army as a real person. Grudge The enemy has been pursued for seven years, but is here.
It was an irresistible urge.
It's seven years ago for Aldis today, just seven days ago. Aldis closed his eyelids while reasoning for his desire to start running as soon as possible.
I had to decide. There is not much time left.
If this were six years ago, the world beyond would have been easily cut off. However, there are a number of figures that cannot be shaken off in Aldis's eyelids. Before meeting twins, before meeting Nere, before meeting Cyril ... Then you know. That world, which had no connection and no thought, is now the place to return for Aldis.
Fiery grudges and hatred tried to keep Aldis on the scene, and Philia and Liana's faces floated as if to keep their wandering hearts.
What would happen to Aldis if he stayed here? Somehow Nere may take care of them. Rona may be able to help as she moves between the two worlds.
But that is hopeful observation. It is Aldis himself who has decided to protect the twins above all else. There is a degree of irresponsibility, such as trying to push it against Nere and Rona.
Reason Nere somehow chose Aldis to follow and follow her. Section: That's why the twins protected by Aldis were considered to be protected at the same time. If Aldis disappears, the twins could be abandoned.
Rona may occasionally lend a hand, but he won't take care of his twins at the expense of his life. Kirill only hired as a twin educator. No matter how much Aldis borrows, it is too good for insects to expect their twins to take care of them until they reach adulthood. In the first place he should not have such a financial margin.
Four or five years later, the twins may become independent, but if they lose Aldis's asylum at this time, their future will remain dark.
Time limit approaching every moment. Aldis unknowingly clenched his fist.
Hesitating hesitation, hesitation ,, conflict, frustration, overflowing endlessly various think. After seven days of wandering in this world, he wants to stay here because of his burning hatred, and after seven years of life in the other world he has not forsaken what he must protect. Moaning came out of his mouth.
"Which one to choose from?"
It takes only tens of seconds in time. That felt quite long and painful for Aldis.
When he finally decides, Aldis shakes his head to the left and right as he breaks his training.
"I will definitely come back."
It is a vow to myself. The contract was never allowed to break.
Aldis looks only once, looks up at the empty sky, and steps his foot toward a circular mirror. The mirror, barely large enough to pass through, sucked in Aldis's body.
The vision darkens in an instant. Aldis was struck by the sensation of moving away from consciousness, wrapped in darkness in which she could not feel the shimmering light.
