Niisama may be doing something wrong.

There was always a feeling in Laurent's chest.

It was before Janice disappeared in earnest. To be precise, his mother, Chloe, had been on her chest ever since she died.

Because, more than anyone, Laurent has seen him. Whether his top brother was casting contempt upon him or his second brother was deciding to ignore him, Laurent never left Janice, and he never changed his admiration. I was by the side. Because of Laurent, she was more sensitive to Janice's changes than anyone else, and she was the first to notice them.

After she disappeared in earnest, the hunch turned into a certain certain certainty, and she squeezed Laurent's chest.

I loved it. I really loved it.

I admired it. I loved you. I admired it.

I sincerely hoped to be like him, and I had a longing similar to giving up that I would not be like him.

That's why, knowing his evil deeds, he thinks:

(We have to stop niisama!)

We must definitely stop it.

Janice is dying. Moreover, instead of dying alone, he is about to die, accompanied by a multitude of men. I have no idea why or how, but Laurent could confidently say that she had the right feeling.

Laurent runs.

Heading towards the abandoned church on the outskirts of the city. It was the place where Janice told me about her memories of her mother.

I don't know what kind of memories that is.

However, it seems that Chloe, Janice's mother, is from this country and has brought Janice back to this country once every few years. It seems that Chloe's parents are buried in the church cemetery, and he always visited the cemetery with them. For some reason, he had fun talking about the memories of that time.

I didn't know why it seemed so fun, but Janice's face, which reminds me of that time, seemed very fun, and as a child, Laurent thought, "That church is an important place for niisama."

(Church standing close to the cliff with the sea as its back!)

Roland recalls what Janice told him and moves on.

As far as I checked in the library, there was only one such church in this town. So I'm sure you're right.

(Niisama is here!)

In front of you is an abandoned church built on a dark night.

Although his feet trembled with spookiness, Laurent wrestled his courage and raised his voice toward the church building.

"Niisama, you're here, aren't you? If you're here, come out! It's me! It's Laurent!"

That voice is sucked into the darkness in vain.

"We've picked you up!" Come home to Nortlach with me! ”

There is no one to answer for me.

Laurent shouted again with all his might.

"Niisama...!"

"... Laurent?"

The voice was heard from the front. Raising his face, the door of the church opens and a man looks at Laurent. He knew the man well.

Silver hair and amethyst-like purple eyes. My nose is bridge and my limbs are long. Always with a gentle smile, this man...

Laurent rushed out tirelessly. Then, as I wept in front of him, I hugged his chest.

"Niisama!"

"Why are you here?"

"Find niisama, find niisama...!"

After that, it was speechless.

The pleasant, painful and unparalleled feeling took over my chest, and I almost overflowed with tears. But it endured quickly. My purpose is not to cry on his chest.

Therefore, with all his heart, Laurent speaks only this.

"Niisama, let's go home!" I'll properly hide niisama. You don't have to go back to the Royal Palace! "

"... Laurent"

"There was the land of the north, wasn't there? I bought the land where I could see the Aurora over there. so that you can hide niisama there--"

"I'm not going."

It was as if I had been sprinkled with cold water.

Laurent looked up at Janice with an unbelievable cold voice.

Niisama?

"Go home, Laurent. This is not the place for you."

"But niisama...!"

"I'm saying it's annoying."

Behind Janice, who spoke harshly, was a beautiful woman and his nanny. The name was definitely Tino, wasn't it?

Without stopping Janice, the two of them are watching Roland's interactions. Janice looked away from Laurent and spoke even colder than before.

"You know what, Laurent? You've always admired me, but I've always hated you."

Huh?

"I've always hated it. I mean, you can only walk behind me, and you can't like it anymore. I was acting friendly in front of my father, but I always wanted to shake your hand, so I had no choice."

"Niisama..."

His voice was trembling. I noticed that my legs were trembling, and all I felt was a vain feeling in my chest that why I was saying that.

"Are you afraid of me? That's enough. Now go home. And don't ever show yourself in front of me again. The bug spit runs."

Janice threw up and reached for Tino. Tino then hands him a sword that remains in his sheath. A slender sword like a rapier.

Janice casually threw away the decorated sheath, swung her sword once, and slowly pointed her tip towards Laurent. the work is not cloudy at all

“I'm serious. Laurent, hurry up and get out of this country."

"Niisama, please don't lick me!"

Laurent grabbed the sword without hesitation. At that moment, Janice gasped for breath.

Perhaps because the blade of the sword hits the palm of my hand, my palm became slightly wet. Blood draws many lines from the wrist to the arm.

"I know." You're not serious, are you? Is that what you're saying to get me out of this country?... I'm fine. "

I put the tip of the sword I grabbed against my forehead. When you put a lot of force into it, the same thing that flows from your palm slips off your forehead.

I'm well prepared.

"Stop--"

It was when Janice unexpectedly shouted.

Laurent!

Suddenly I heard such a voice from my back. When I looked back, something like a pattern appeared on my shoulder. And the vision was filled with a light that couldn't even open my eyes.

"Finally! Janice!"

The next time she opened her eyes, Laurent was sitting there, covered by Cecil.
