Thus, the wise strive for light - to start over with a life in different worlds

... Only one thing, I can remember.

Maybe I was just suppressing it in my memory.

Besides, he doesn't look the same. But it's definitely the same name Dahlia.

"... Dahlia, you, ha"

"What is it? Those eyes look just like old times."

"Once upon a time, when was that?

"... in an orphanage."

When I hear the words, I jump right into her arms.

And after blowing up for a while, I get up slowly.

"... then what is that body!? We know you...!

"I don't have a body. This is all there is and consciousness. And..."

Dahlia twinkles some pendant-shaped accessory from between her chest.

That was nothing more than a demon nuke I saw in the land of witches.

"This is the heart that shapes me. Michelle gave me a very warm heart."

"... then should I break that?

"Thought I'd let you?

Dahlia grabs Zahr's neck with a tweezer and tightens it straight up.

But Mentila stumbles down at the tip of his sword and points it straight at Dahlia.

"... what are you going to do? Hehe, you don't have to be shy, do you?

"Why did you do this? You think I'd be happy to do this?

"You must be Teng himself who tried to wage war a hundred years ago, right? Is it more beautiful now?

"... ugh."

Mentila pushes me to shut up.

... he tried to start a war? What are you talking about?

"Come on, shall we go back together? Only I will continue to love you. Always, always, forever..."

Dahlia reaches out to Mentila with a tranced look.

But Mentila puts her hand on the sword and shakes it off with it.

"... sorry"

"... Huh?

Something pierced my body all of a sudden as I watched Dahlia stunned by Mentila's words.

There, my body before. In other words, 'Sage' stood there.

"Hey, you...... Huh!

He doesn't talk about anything.

Just look at my face as if staring into the void.

... Oh, no.

Something hot pours out of the center of my body.

And whenever it comes out, drowsiness awakens me.

Everyone is screaming.

But I can't hear anything anymore.

After I finally heard the earthquake's body crash to the ground, I closed my eyes and left my body to drowsiness.

―――

After a while, my body realizes it touched the outside air and wakes up.

Around, a dead land with nothing.

A world of trees, grass, nothing.

Even if you look at the sky, there's not a single star.

The moon, the first star, nothing.

It's night or even ambiguous, a red-purple sky.

"Is this...?

I wake up suddenly surprised.

There is no pain. Earlier injuries are blocked as if they were lies.

Well, I guess this is the one called The World of Death.

Hell is apparently a killing landscape.

But from what I've done, I guess it's natural.

At that time, the audible voice entered my ear, and when I turned in that direction, Mentila was sitting back and peeking into my face.

"Hey, are you awake?

"Mentila? Everyone...?

"... sorry. I'll bring you in, so I was full."

Bring him in? What are you talking about?

"No way, Mentila is a reaper...?

"No, I'm not. This is my spell. The power to come and go around the world. But at that price, I lost my life."

"... so, a hundred years ago?

"Yeah. That's when I met her. We met, and I turned the witch and man to the enemy for her as well."

"... Huh?

... brave men should be the only ones to fight witches.

Why did he turn his teeth on a human?

"At that time, Dahlia was alone. No one to rely on, no one to reach out to her."

"Orphan, was it?

"Yeah. I've raised her on behalf of my parents, and I wonder if she's about the same time as Sophia is now? 'Kill him'. Maybe it's because she's a witch."

... Nothing, I can't tell you.

Because I'm a witch, was it something that could easily take my life at the time?

"But I said no. I thought of her like a real daughter."

……

"Then one day she disappeared somewhere while they went upside down and we were dealing with the witch at the same time."

"... disappeared?

"I started dreaming that day."

"Dream, is it?

Mentila slowly continues her words after taking a deep breath once she nods.

"Yeah.... I'm just walking, but I just dream of her laughing at me. They just keep laughing at me like I've been made a fool of."

"... the girl"

"You're right. That's why I don't like girls."

He stands up and reaches out to me after talking to me for a minute.

So one thing came to my mind.

"Mentila, where are we?

"... it's your home world. of the world you were in, decades from now."

Decades from now, my world?

So this is the end of the human race after victory over the Demons?

I suddenly get nauseous and scatter things out of my belly all over the ground.

But Mentila didn't even give a nasty look, she just stared at me.
