When I Returned From Another World I Was A Silver Haired Shrine Maiden

Red dyed rooftops in the sunset.

The far-sighted building sinks into the shadows, and the sky depicts a gradient of Zhu and Blue.

It was very fantastic and a sight that lacked a sense of reality as if it were even dreaming.

"Graduation………?

I whine to see what Alicia meant by the words she uttered.

'Yes, it is. Even so, I'm not in school, so I just feel like it.'

Alicia says at a standstill.

'I will not be remembered for myself. As we talked about in the Ferris wheel. There's only one thing left to worry about, Mr. Ikto.'

"…… me?

'... I'm sorry, I couldn't be with Mr. Ikto. And the fact that I kept quiet about it all the time'

"Don't apologize. It's not Alicia's fault we can't be together. Alicia couldn't reveal herself to me, 'cause it's bad that I wasn't solid."

'It is entirely my selfishness to remain silent. It's not Mr. Ikto's fault. "

Alicia denies my words without going into her hair.

"Seeing the same thing as Mr. Ikto, eating the same thing... the days we spent together and laughed at each other. These are all my precious memories. So... '

It's all Alicia's fault because it's a lie she told me to get her own gain, how rational.

Those memories are irreplaceable for me, and if you're going to say the damage, how much more I'm getting helped by Alicia over and over again.

'That's not all I have to apologize for. I became Mr. Ikto's lover, hiding the time I had left. The deeper the relationship, the more I knew it would hurt Mr. Ikto when we broke up...'

Alicia says sorry.

'I was really glad to be confessed and to know that Ikto was feeling with me... so I couldn't refuse to talk about Ikto, even though I knew I really shouldn't accept it'

"I was glad to be Alicia's lover, too. So don't say it like that. Because I think it would have been harder if Alicia had rejected me."

I deliberately respond brightly.

I didn't want Alicia to feel guilty about this.

"… Mr. Ikto. Thank you very much. '

But Alicia's tone remains heavy.

'But I'm sorry. I say one more thing selfish. I have to tell you.'

And then, after a little while...

"Mr. Ikto, please dissolve your relationship with me."

That's what Alicia told me.

'I have received many thoughts from Mr. Ikto. I know it's a selfish offer...... but Mr. Ikto's life will continue. So please graduate from me properly. Then I can go in peace.'

Alicia says that all the more bright.

Speaking of selfishness, he offered only to worry about me being left behind.

But...

"I don't like it."

But I can't just take that.

'Uh... can't you even do me one last favor...?

"No...... right. You can't leave Alicia alone at the end of the day."

"I'm worried that I'll have the rest of my worries..."

"I'm sorry, but stay worried... I'm still being distracted by Alicia. You can take that much responsibility, okay?

'... that just makes Mr. Ikto extra hard, doesn't it?

"I don't mind. I don't know what will happen in the future, but I want to be Alicia's lover at least until the very last moment."

'... you can't help it anymore, Mr. Ikto.'

Alicia looked troubled, but happily responded.

'Promise me only one thing. From now on, it is Mr. Ikto's freedom to be a lover with someone. But for my sake, do not refuse'

"Okay, I get it."

"Don't let me go out with you. Don't let me, please respond to that person properly. That's Mr. Hisui, Mr. Souta, or anyone else... '

"... how come those two names come up?

"Hisui's thoughts on Ikto are stronger and more serious than anyone else's. Know all about me, for as much as you have hit me as a rival to reciprocate without winning the war for good. Really relentless...... '

Alicia in a sigh mix.

I guess he remembers something about jade.

... A lot has happened.

"I am grateful to Mr. Hissui. I don't think I would have gone out with Mr. Ikto if she hadn't been here... so he reprimanded me for hesitating to face Mr. Ikto and gave me the courage. '

When I listen, I don't know what Jade thinks.

Are you rooting for me and Alicia or not...

'Maybe he's been reluctant to think about me lately because his approach has been modest. But if I'm gone, aren't you serious about dropping Mr. Ikto?

"Ugh..."

I have a voice like that unexpectedly.

I never hate jade.

But when I'm with Emerald, I feel like I'm no longer me, and I feel more like a woman than usual - that's a little scary.

"And I think Mr. Souta is the one who forgives Ikto the most."

"But it's a man to man………?

I'm not a faggot.

So there's no way you're going to like Ethereum.

'I'm a man and a woman now. There's something about Mr. Ikto that's deliberately deluded you not to understand the area, isn't there?

"I don't..."

I know I'm seen as an object of lust from Ethereum.

But that's an unavoidable emotion if you're a man, and whether you have romantic feelings or not is a completely different story.

…… but what can I do if Alicia doesn't know the difference?

'Well, that's good. Anyway, it is Ikto's freedom to choose who to partner, so please do as Ikto thinks.'

"I don't care if you say so…………"

The only person I like is Alicia.

I can't even think about what happens with the others.

'Ah... please be careful not to get hooked up with bad guy people. But even, Ikto has a lot of gaps... I can't believe Amoc, hey, you can't just do that!

"………… Okay."

Speaking like a mother, I answer with a bitter smile.

Because Alicia was doing so well, I couldn't believe it was the end of the line.

"Are you sure there's nothing more you can do? Take a longer rest period…………………………"

I asked a question that had no such benefit.

'... I'm sorry, I can't do that'

My shallow thoughts were immediately denied.

Naturally.

It can't be that Alicia hasn't even considered this possibility.

"My soul is no longer in shape. There's nothing you can do if you can replenish your energy by adding more days off, but if you can't maintain the contents themselves'

Alicia tells her indifferently of her condition.

'Besides, I'm about out of tune with Mr. Ikto. All that's left is sight and hearing...... it's also feeling thinner and now I can only feel blurred as if I'm watching TV in the dark'

"Oh no..."

"If I were to analogize now, I would stand in the middle of the lake and manage to only face the water. If I lose my mind, my consciousness will sink into the water, and I will never return."

Alicia's situation is worse than I thought.

What dared to tell me that was her tenderness to keep me from having any hopes of recklessness.

"I knew I should take my soul out and return my body to Alicia."

It's useless.

The impulsively spoken word is simply rejected by Alicia.

'It was my vow to bring Mr. Ikto back safely to this world. It could not be fulfilled in full form, but it is still my pride to have saved Mr. Ikto's life. So please don't let it go without you. "

"……… Is there nothing more I can do?

'... that's not true. That's right... then remember me'

This is selfish again, too, Alicia laughed.

"Every day I adventured with Mr. Ikto, every day I've done great in this world, it's all my treasure. So I wish they were important to Mr. Ikto. '

"Yeah."

That's for sure.

'Then enjoy Mr. Ikto's own life and live. And I'd be glad if one day you looked back and smiled back at me saying this had happened'

"……… yeah."

Although I'm not sure about that yet......

'Maybe if you think about Mr. Ikto, you should tell him to forget about me... I'm sorry. I am selfish. I want to be remembered by Mr. Ikto. "

"You don't have to ask me, you can't forget."

That's when a chime rang to let you know when you were leaving school.

'… Well, it's time'

The sky only increased in depth and remained slightly cedar.

The sun was hiding between the buildings and the half-moon moon appeared thin.

'My soul will be summoned to Master Minstia, but I think that there will also be remnants of my soul in Mr. Ikto's body… so Mr. Ikto and I will always be together'

At the end of the day Alicia says that.

Even though Alicia says she can't feel anything and won't be able to tell anyone.

"So I won't say goodbye"

I look forward in anticipation of about to lean down.

The rooftops of the school, the streets hidden in the shadows far away, the sea sky.

I opened my eyes to show Alicia the view at dusk, and to burn it into my own eyes.

'Thank you for everything...... I promised to go swimming in the ocean, sorry I couldn't keep it'

With that said, I couldn't go swimming in the ocean with Alicia after all.

Why didn't I go to the sea last summer?

I just wish I could have put up with the embarrassment of my swimsuit.

'Bye, Mr. Ikto, how are you...... I love it. My brave man.'

"Yeah, me too...... I love it. Alicia!"

Eat up your teeth and raise your mouth angle.

Smile to the end.

"Oh... that was fun..."

At the end of the day, Alicia shrugged with satisfaction.

"-!?

A sudden sense of loss to visit.

Alicia's presence disappeared from me.

"Ahhhhh..."

I grabbed her to scratch her chest with my right hand so as to suppress the flabby blank. I can't stand and I fall to my knees.

"Ugh... Ugh..."

Keep your torso bent and small and round.

The overflowing Shizukuishi marks the potatoes and the concrete rooftops.

"Ah... Alicia ah..."

Calling me back, I'm not returning anything anymore.

Alicia's figure floats behind her brain one after the other and disappears.

Alicia eats something delicious and smiles innocently.

Alicia is excited to forget me for a new experience.

Alicia is waking me up reluctantly.

I wanted to live with you.

I wanted to share something more enjoyable or delightful.

I just wanted Alicia to feel happier.

"Alice!!

I hear voices I'm used to hearing somewhere.

Someone came running up to me and gave me a hug. I knew who that was.

"Yona... Alicia's gone..."

That's all I have to tell you.

I thought so, so I managed to squeeze the words out.

"I know! Because I know.........!

If I didn't have to put it into words, Yuna wrapped me up and just hugged me.

"Hey... could I have laughed till the end......?

I couldn't help but ask Yuna about it and she couldn't understand it.

... I can't hear you anymore.
