I'll be back by lunchtime.
"Oh, come on, mind your own business." I'm watching Asuka and Set and Maki closely. "
"Hey, Nica! I'm on your watch, too?" Ahhh, I want to grow up soon
The next morning, while Seto and Maki were still awake, we decided to leave. Nika and Asuka, who had come to see me off, clapped each other lightly.
"I'm expecting Asuka." If it weren't for you, those two would have spent the whole time freaking out. That's because I feel sorry for you. "
"Hmm, is that right? Leave it to me!"
As always, he is a confident man. But it's cool to be able to do that, Asuka! Nika-san and Maki-san, these two can safely ask Set-kun and Maki-chan for help.
"Well then, I'll go." Nice to meet you, Asuka. "
"Oops! If Meg asks me, I'll be done for!"
Speaking to Asuka, he laughed happily. That's a little bit to understand my anxiety about going to the tomb. Thank goodness. Let's pick what Asuka wants for lunch, let's do it.
Early morning roads are less crowded. I seem to stand out from the crowd when I walk in such a way, and I am interpreted lightly by people who go on the road.
The attention and strangeness of the king of the east may have been spread to the people. Work is quick and it spreads fast. It helps!
Good morning, Kaiser.
When we got to the front of the castle, there was already Mr. Kaiser there. Even though you're old, you'll fall in love with your egregious figure! It's a nice way of getting old.
"Good morning, Master Meg, Mr. Licht." You weren't there yesterday, were you? But I remember. I'm sure it's a dwarf's... "
"Yes, Ronald."
You remembered Ronnie well, too. I'm glad to hear that. Kaiser laughed happily when he heard Ronnie's name.
So you're going to visit the tomb today, right?
Yes, thank you.
It seems that Ronnie, who wasn't there yesterday, came today, so he replied. Kaiser smiled even deeper as Licht greeted him.
“I'll be happy to show you around. I'll call the carriage, so please wait a moment. I'm still doing well, but the mountain roads are getting a little tough on my old age."
Raising one hand, one of the knights held nearby ran away. I heard that the carriage was set up so that I could leave immediately. I can tell by my skill and skill.
Well, maybe more than half of what Kaiser said was a joke. Looks like it's not that far away, and Kaiser isn't a tough road.
I'm sure you've taken care of the carriage for us, so that you can ride comfortably. Gentle.
As Mr. Kaiser said, the carriage came right in front of us. It's a nice box carriage that people can ride properly. It's not a wagon with a hood. The beast carriage on the demon continent is a wagon type, so I've never seen such a classy wagon. I'm a little nervous.
It seemed to be the same for Licht and Ronnie, and the three of them looked at each other and laughed. Kaiser smiles when she hears about the situation.
When the four of them got on, the carriage set off slowly. There's a communal cemetery just outside the city.
I thought the tomb was near the Royal Castle in the east.
No, I was just assuming that somehow. After all, Mr. Rabbi was captured in the Imperial Castle in the east.
But if you think about it, it's just a coincidence. There would have been considerations to make it easier to meet with Licht. The camp isn't just the Imperial Castle to the east, so the common cemetery is usually in the middle.
The embarrassment of asking questions yourself and answering them yourself. Excuse me.
“Hahaha, of course that's one of the reasons, because the biggest problem is the size of the land. Many prisoners are unaccompanied. It means that only around here can we secure a wide area to bury them."
Oh, I see. We've got a spot. They say that if you have a close friend, you'll have a prisoner picked up, but if you don't, you'll be buried in a communal cemetery, even if you're not a prisoner. I was a little relieved when I heard that you could give me a proper shave.
Richt said that he would register the location of the tomb with magic power. Yeah, so you can come anytime. When you come back, I'll take you with me. From now on, I don't want to be scared. I want to provide flowers regularly.
"Huh? But Richt hasn't gone yet...?"
"Actually, yes." I could have gone if I wanted to. Somehow... I don't feel like going to the habit I've been seeing more often than you guys. You're a filthy man, aren't you? Not even my real parents! "
Hmm? Richt is so bright, he started talking fast. At a time like this, Richt feels anxious, sad, and worried anyway. I know it's been a long time.
And don't lick your soul connections. I stepped out and put my hands on Licht's lap, sitting face to face. The surprised Licht leaned back slightly.
"Hey, what the hell, Meg?"
It's okay, Ronnie and I are here!
I'm sure not only Richt and I, but also Ronnie feel the same way. After staring at Licht and saying that, I turned back and nodded strongly to Ronnie, who was sitting next to me.
Richt and Ronnie had their eyes rounded as if they were dumbfounded, but suddenly their faces collapsed and they smiled bitterly.
"... oh, thank you. C 'mon, Meg. Ronnie said the same thing earlier. It's very reliable, Konjaya-roo"
"Oh, don't say that!" Ah, just a little more gentle stroke! "
You immediately understood that you were seeing through. Licht stroked my head roughly and laughed loudly. Illuminated? Really? Well, I'll forgive you. That's what Kaiser's watching, too!
I wonder if it takes about 30 minutes to feel it. The carriage slows down and stops. Looks like we're here. Mr. Kaiser is the first to come down and give me a hand.
Meg-sama, let me escort you to this old man if you like.
"Kaiser-san...! Fufu, thank you."
It was a little shiny, but it would be rude of Kaiser to say no here. When I took my hand while saying thank you, he dropped me off the carriage in a flowing manner. You're used to it. Maybe this is normal for Kaiser.
I walked along the grave while being escorted by Mr. Kaiser. There were a few miscellaneous images because it was a communal cemetery, but it was surprisingly beautiful because there was an administrator.
However, there were really many tombstones. So many people have been buried.
I've never seen so many tombstones lined up.
"Oh, is this your first time, Ronnie?" Humans have a higher birth rate, but they're shorter than those on the demon continent. This is normal. It's a communal cemetery, so there are many more. "
I see, it's the first time you've seen Ronnie. Licht and I weren't very surprised because of our knowledge of our previous lives, but I was surprised when people from the demon continent saw us for the first time.
Is the tomb of the Demon Continent still different from this one?
Kaiser asked me this time. In other words, the size of the graves on the human continent is roughly like this.
Well, it's about the tombs of the demon continent. The gravestone becomes white in proportion to the beauty of the soul of the deceased. It seems that there are some things that are not, but that's the mainstream.
"That's strange again..." Are you a beautiful soul? It seems that white tombstones will be rarer on this continent. "
The words spoken by Mr. Kaiser in his distant eyes could not be denied or affirmed. Humans are surprisingly ugly creatures.
I don't think my headstone is white because my soul is human. I don't know how many thousands of years ago, but I don't want to surprise the people who built my tomb one day.
"This is it. I'm sorry I can only put a small stone..." I was responsible for their burial. I put my heart into it. "
"Kaiser-san, on your own...?"
In fact, all three of them open their eyes. I see, that's what you've been doing. I can't thank you enough.
"... thank you, Mr. Kaiser. Really"
Licht lowered his head deeply, followed by me and Ronnie. Mr. Kaiser waved his hand in a hurry, but this was not enough to thank him. Thank you so much...!
"Come on, don't worry about me." Say hello to Rabbi, too. "
"... yes"
Licht muttered, "Rabbi," and Kaiser laughed as if she was illuminated.
Actually, I had to call my real name "Selavis", but I was told that my name was Rabbi. That's why he called me Rabbi only when there weren't people around. The back of my nose became rough.
Licht stepped forward and stood in front of Mr. Rabbi's headstone. Then he knelt down and stared straight at the headstone.
I took out a bouquet of flowers from the storage bracelet. I had it prepared at the florist yesterday. There were flowers picked from the demon continent and bouquets of flowers I bought... Because I felt like I should prepare something on this familiar continent.
"... yo, Rabbi. Sorry I'm late."
As I gently place the bouquet in front of the tombstone, Licht speaks in a dazed voice.
I'll leave you two alone for a moment. Thinking so, I took a short distance from Licht, aiming for Ronnie.
Seeing Richt from a distant position, he looked like a lost child.
