128 With Witches, Elves, Siblings.
128 With Witches, Elves, Siblings.
Felicia looked at the wooden walls as foolish, not doing anything.
Simply because I don't have anything to do and then somehow I don't even motivate myself.
But that's how I get out of hand, and I really think of what happened earlier.
That I said goodbye earlier, and about the other guy.
What I told you then, it's not a lie.
I'm not lying... but if they asked me if it was true, I would say no.
At that time - the words I told Somma were of that kind.
But I dared to do that because I thought I should.
Though I may be complacent...... because I felt like Soma would try to help me if I told her my current situation.
Fact Soma told me he could help me... but that's why I decided then to wave that hand off.
If one of us was going to survive, it was unnecessary.
It's a soma even recognised by dragons.
I'm sure if you really told me to help, it would have been possible enough to get one Felicia out of here.
Because a witch uses a spell in consideration for someone's wishes, its effect is impossible on herself.
And if you can't use a spell, you're below the average person, such as a witch.
The only way to get out of here is for someone to do something about it… but that is if Felicia wants to.
Yes, in the end, that was the problem.
Felicia did not want to escape.
I wanted everyone to live, not just survive, and I chose that path.
That was all it was.
As my father and mother did.
And, accidentally, the door to the room was knocked.
You don't have to know who they are.
Even though the need didn't mean it in many ways, he called out with a bitter smile that it was still disciplined in a weird place.
"Go ahead."
"Hmm... excuse me"
It was still to be said that it was the face I saw that made me look that way.
It is Joseph, the chief who binds the species Elf and also Felicia's brother.
As a whole, after today's ritual, I broke up that I still had work to do, but apparently it's over.
Such a Joseph looked down at this one with a face that seemed grumpy at first glance, he snapped his nose.
"... you look good"
"Right, thanks to you"
"... is that disgusting?
"Why does that happen? I'm well now because my brother Truth was trying to make things easier for me, right? That's no exception today. So now the word means as it is."
"Hmm... right"
"Is that...?
So Felicia leaked her questionable voice and tilted her neck because Joseph just nodded.
If it's ever been...
"... what?
"No... I called you my brother and there was no correction"
"Hmm... Fact is I'm your brother. Then it will be necessary to correct it. We're all brothers and sisters here now."
If I said that, I would have always met him... but really, he's as clumsy as ever.
Well, I can't tell you about people myself.
"Really..."
"Oh......"
So, the words broke off from each other.
Silence came to the scene... and it didn't seem like a bad thing.
At least Felicia didn't hate it.
But Joseph seemed uncomfortable somewhere, and he loosened his mouth slightly about it.
For a really long time, nothing has changed.
"So you didn't just come here to confirm that, did you?
If that's how he turned the story around, Joseph blinked for a few moments later and snapped his nose.
To that appearance, Felicia loosens her mouth even further.
This habit is also one of the things that remains the same.
When my fathers were gone and I had to take on the chief, was it essential that I began to do what I had mistaken in order to be dignified?
In the end, it wasn't majesty that came out, it was just an attitude that looked great in vain... well, what would have happened by now if I had pointed it out properly at the time.
"Oh, of course. Tomorrow and beyond, for final confirmation."
But such thought was also drawn back to reality in an instant, before the word.
It's what I knew, and it's what I was prepared for... but it still doesn't seem to reopen that easily.
Still, I nod in the guise of tranquillity because it only slightly strengthens and, above all, doesn't worry my family.
"Yes."
"I'm going to spend the next day cleansing you up and getting ready. And the day after tomorrow... you die"
That, the shards also did not hide the facts, and in a straight-ball, clumsy way, there was a natural grin.
Really, it's too much the same.
I wish I could honestly use the word sacrifice... my brother, but I wondered if it was really okay.
"Yes, I know"
"............... right"
So you tried to mouth something, your mouth stops open in an unnatural way, but in the end, you can just nod and close it.
The words released afterwards were probably different from what I was trying to say now, but that was enough for Felicia to be surprised.
"After this, you have no freedom. But for that matter, I swear I will protect you. And in the meantime, it's this guy who's closest to protecting you.... in."
"...... hmm.... Regards"
"... Huh?
That's how it appeared to Felicia was the face she saw.
I haven't actually seen him in years, but I haven't forgotten.
There's no way I can forget.
They were there because they were their own sister, Sheila.
"Duh, why is Sheila here...? Sure, you were on a journey, weren't you?
"... Yeah, I was just coming home"
"Really, the other day. Because of that, I haven't even been given time to let everyone greet me on my return"
"That was again...... really, that was the perfect time"
If it were only a little later to come back... or sooner, I might have been able to stay out of it without knowing about this one.
Of course, I'm glad to see my sister in and of itself.
But still... I guess I shouldn't have known.
"...... it's okay"
But Sheila was staring straight at this one, as if she had read such thoughts on this one.
I felt slightly lost and floating there... but still, there was a strong will there.
"... have you changed a bit?
"... right?
"Yes, if it was Sheila back in the day, I'd feel a little more lost and bothered"
Although the elves, it is only natural that they will change after a few years.
Besides, if you were on a journey, it would be even worse.
But somehow... I didn't think that was all.
"... um, if that's what it looks like... maybe thanks to them"
"... Really?"
Sheila, who is usually lacking in expression, had a slight grin on her mouth when she said so.
So I thought you'd be fine.
Though it would make me feel hard...... if I could meet people I could say that way, I'm sure.
That's a great pleasure as a sister, and a grin in nature and in my own mouth.
"Huh, you can talk about that area as much as you want later on. Tomorrow I'll be busy, but today I still have time."
"Oh, is that okay...?
"Huh, I thought I told you it was due after tomorrow. I don't have any more plans today. Then there will be no one to complain to where you like to spend your time."
"... Really? Thank you."
"... thanks"
"... Huh"
The two of them thanked each other, and Felicia and the others looked at each other unexpectedly at the appearance of their brother, who turned away his nose as soon as possible.
Shortly afterwards, we laughed at each other and our hearts warmed to ourselves unchanged.
Whatever happens after this, this time alone was certain now.
"By the way, what will your brother do after this?
"... this is my house, and you're back? Then the rest will be slow and relaxed."
"... I should have always worked later?
"When are we talking? In a few years it will be decided to be more efficient as well.... Well, I guess it's because I accidentally made progress today and everyone else worked hard for some reason."
"... Really?"
I guess that means that we worked hard to spend time with the three of us in the family and everyone worked together.
I wish I could honestly say that...... really, he was a clumsy brother.
However, thanks to that, I can apparently leave without worries.
Just for a moment, I cared.
After all, three members of my family, because I rarely took my time.
... Though that may turn into a heavy stone on the left side.
That's about it, I wanted you to take a look at it.
Whatever it is, now...
"- Ah."
…… ... What's wrong?
"... no, never mind. 'Cause I just remembered I don't care."
"... right?
"Yes......"
Yeah, that's really, it doesn't matter.
At least, it must be so for the other person... or maybe the biggest selfish thing I've ever thought of.
I just thought so.
Speaking of which... you said you said goodbye, but you weren't saying goodbye.
Felicia thought to the boy who was past her brain that she was too selfish.
