For me, the world was only your mansion.

The mansion was big for humans to live in, but it was too small for a world to live in the rest of its life.

I think that's why I loved the book.

In the book, I could have gone anywhere. Of course —— although there were plenty of places I could not imagine reading.

What's the ocean?

What's a mountain?

What lake? What river?

After I found my suitability for similar-looking magic, I was unable to go outside.

There was a maid of your mansion who pitied me for it, and she taught me all sorts of things. How to read a book, about a world she's never even seen, and then —— that she loves people.

Such a maid was dismissed when she told me that she was "putting on extra wisdom". I couldn't even say goodbye. One day, I lost sight of the maid.

And he said,

—— You will never show up in front of your daughter again.

I got an unscrupulous answer back.

I spent my days reading books. I learned the word "comfort your daily boredom" because I read the book.

I was feeling my heart wear out more and more as I did so.

I will eventually be used as a "weapon".

Only such a dark forecast of the future had spread before me.

It rained hard, it was night.

Me and a boy my age are often the same, who killed my father, who was locked away in his mansion - without wonder and fear of him - and then freed me from being escorted.

I thought you looked like a hero in an adventure story.

He said it was a burden, because he rescued me lightly.

And I even broke the dungeon.

My every day, when I was losing color, rapidly turned into something colorful.

Outside the city there were woods. Merchants were coming and going down the street. There was a small bridge across the river. The hot dog was incredibly tasty —— although Hikaru said it was "too spicy to do it".

I knew Hikaru was hiding something important.

But I never doubted Hikaru or lost faith in Hikaru.

Because to me Hikaru is a benefactor of life, a hero who has given me freedom, and - perhaps - the first person I have ever liked in my life.

It also turns out that Hikaru has a special ability to be a soulboard.

You have given me the ability to "hide", so I have to believe.

I don't know how far he recognizes it, but his abilities —— they're so boring.

I can't believe you can mass produce a master of swords if you care about it, God's work without man.

It was well understood that he would hide the secret.

He revealed to me —— that trust is delightful, and I almost cry unexpectedly.

That's why I want to be of service to Hikaru.

You don't have to ask me what I want. If the limits of ability to stretch are determined by the point, I want to make up for the inability of Hikaru.

Because —— I was given too much.

The next morning, Hikaru went outside the city when he was ready with Lavia.

The meadows, which are somewhat inclined, expand, and beyond that lies the forest zone.

If you look north, the blue mountains are spreading.

Find a boarding carriage outside the city and head north.

Hikaru's feelings were neat. Again, I think it's a big thing I could have told Lavia.

That's how Lavia had a change of heart, too, standing closer to Hikaru than usual. I spent most of my time holding hands.

I spent a day on the move that day.

We secured the lodging in a small city at the foot of the mountain. A cedary sunset was dyeing the city as it rolled out to the city to pick up dinner.

"A very big sunset"

Staring at the sun about to fall into the western forest zone, Lavia snapped, unintentionally, and so on.

I hear children laughing somewhere playing.

of the cooking that has drifted —— feeling hungry for the smell of roasting meat, Hikaru entered one liquor store with Lavia. Instead, this is the only place I could find a place to eat.

"Oh well, you're a small customer. Traveling?"

A plenty of ladies will come to hear the order, which seems to bother me.

"That's the place. Can you make the recommended meal appropriate?

"Aye."

Half way into the store, something like that.

A woman with a lute that looked a lot like a guitar appeared in the corner of the store, whether she said it with a bard or a flush musician.

With red hair, she sits back on the stool and re-hugs the lute to confirm the polo and sound.

That's how I sing it out.

--Once upon a time, there was a man who drew the blood of a phoenix.

He jumped out of a strict house in search of liberty ——

That is an epic poem featuring a man.

There are keywords about the Rumanian family, such as "the one who draws the blood of the yellow tiger" and "the one who draws the blood of the red dragon" when I hear it.

Listen to the song with a pinch of sausage, ham and leafy vegetables brought to you by the general. The man who sought freedom was eventually called back for the war in his country. Says his beloved brother died in battle.

--Hikaru thought this was a good idea.

Listen from ear to ear with music, not books.

"It's a Rumanian song."

"You've been listening to some more thoughtful songs."

I also heard such a voice from an approximate table.

This city is the city of Ludansha. Maybe I don't like the song I sang about Rumania.

(This country... No, I don't even know if it can be called a country. I haven't lost consciousness that it was a small country after all)

Hikaru's face comes to mind with a glimmer in the back of his brain.

He was worried about the future of this country.

—— The man is finally in trouble, with the green ghost and every whisper.

The green ghost receives the blood of a phoenix, to stop the battle, and twists around ——

(Green ghost... and the league's family for sure, you were a green ghost...)

Lifting his eyes, he gazed at Lavia staring at this one.

My hand at eating Lavia's meal is completely stopped. I was staring at Hikaru.

"... what can I do for you? Lady."

"I wonder what Hikaru is thinking."

"It's not a big deal."

"Were you thinking if we should save this country? That's not a big deal."

"Why would I do that..."

"Hikaru is' irrelevant 'or cold-blooded, because he's kind to the hard-working"

"You've often said 'businesslike', but you've never been 'gentle' before."

"Really? Then we just don't have the eyes of the others."

confidently says Lavia.

With a soft smile.

You had such a friendly look on your face —— so much so that I thought.

There's no doubt that this morning's story is affecting you.

"... Lavia, the"

"What?"

"Thanks for listening to me."

"Yeah. I'm the one... thanks for talking to me. I was so happy."

Her warm words, her warm emotions, felt like they were flowing and Hikaru was glad to speak to her again.

"Song, looks like it's over"

"Really."

I don't get applause after singing.

Put up a lute. The woman heads to the counter. And I'm ordering tea from the general.

"I'm going to talk to you for a second. In some cases —— maybe help people."

"Yes. I think it's good. Hikaru."

Sent out by Lavia, Hikaru turned to the singer.

"Sister, I'd like to talk to you for a second."

"... what, this kid?

"Is your sister from Rumania? I need you to tell me a little bit about my clan--"
