The Witch, Who Once Was Called A Saint

Talk about going to Wang Du (4)

Astreia and the others came to the king's capital, and today is the third day.

Astreia was surprised that things had changed a lot with the King's capital she remembered, but also enjoyed it. Astreia, who was enjoying such a peaceful trip, spoke to Ios, feeling a little more used to sleeping in the same room than before in what had not been a good night's sleep.

"Hey, Ios. There's one place I'd like to go."

And he gave no destination to the covenant Ios, and Astreia went out from the walls of the king's capital.

Since the Wang du is much wider than he thought, and the landscape is different from the past, there is such a thing as half the confidence to reach a destination. However, still looking in the direction of the sun and mountains, Astreia advanced her legs in a direction that I think is probably this way.

Whatever, the destination is the first place to visit in four hundred years.

Another different tension arises within me than when I met with the family of Ios.

When he went through a forest very similar to where he had lived for a long time and followed it in front of a small cave, Astreia was surprised to see a single large tree there blooming white flowers with lots of five petals.

This tree is still alive.

"That's a great tree. You know that?

"This is the tree I planted."

No way, I didn't think it was still there.

I thought we'd traced it because of the cave, but if you're saying there's this tree in this place, this is definitely a destination.

"So here you are. Where Astrea's people are sleeping."

"Huh?"

"You're here to see me, aren't you?

You don't have to be specific, I guess that means it was misaligned.

In the first place, it is limited, such as the place where Astreia wants to go, which has not been around the Wang capital for a long time.

"I actually made a tomb marker too, but it's just gone,"

Still, there's no doubt that my people are sleeping under this tree.

Astraia knelt on both knees at the place.

The words just didn't come out right away.

Unlike what I didn't know what to say until now, it was a situation where the various words I had to say in my mind competed with us in order to not speak well.

Next to such an astreia, Ios was also on one knee.

Ios, who had eyes to eye with Astraia, was smiling as he was and then drooling his neck toward the great tree, meditating his eyes and quietly offering prayers.

It looked so beautiful that Astreia was unexpectedly spotted.

"... Oh, my God, did you go?

Astreia asked Ios small, opening his eyes again after a short, but long, time to feel.

I asked you to keep an eye on me.

"Huh? Watch?

"Keep an eye on me because I'll be happy. Of course, I asked my senior officers to greet me as a soldier and keep an eye out for me in that sense."

Ios laughed a little lit, then slowly rose up.

"I promised you I'd be protected. Happy together."

"But I'd be happy if I had Astraia, so I had to be happy."

"... you know, even though I'm the same"

"Huh?"

"Nothing!!"

I guess the voice of objection was too small to reach Ios' ears.

Astraia, however, turned to Ios' inquiry. I envy the character of Ios, who can confess lightly. If I could be honest with you, how cute would that be?

But thanks to the current eos, Astreia's tension has completely been lifted.

Astraia also closed her eyes quietly, and prayed.

(A lot, I'll make memories I can talk to and then I'll go that way, so wait till then. Right now, I want to talk, because if I go that way, I'll tell you everything)

Together, they offered their prayers, and when Astreia opened her eyes again, a pleasant breeze flowed on the spot.

That was a gentle breeze everywhere.
