389 Formerly The Strongest, Reveal
Apparently it worked, looking over the scene exhaling relief, he realized that Felicia wasn't the only one with a strange face.
Because Aina and Sheila looked alike again.
It's like, you know, we don't know why we're here.
"What's here...? I'm sure, to the Holy Capital... no, Soma took Felicia... and then the devil...?... Oh no, I see... you know what?"
"... I remember"
As far as Aina and Sheila are concerned, apparently they have regained their memories, too.
However, because I remember it here, I was a little confused because of it, etc.
Felicia was the same in the sense of being confused, but what is there would still be against being alive, even though she should be dead.
He was staring at Soma like he said something.
"Is something wrong, Felicia?
"... no. Apparently, what I did didn't make sense. Instead, you just made me go through a lot of trouble, and I just thought so."
"Well, honestly, I don't deny it, but if you can understand it, I want you to consult me carefully next time."
"Well... the results are the same, so that's what you need to do without the hassle."
"No, I don't deny it again... but I want you to trust me a little more than that, don't you? I guess not being consulted means that I didn't trust you."
"Oh, no, that's not what happened... no, right, that's what's gonna happen"
As a matter of fact, I know that's not what happened.
Simply Felicia, I guess, thought of herself and it was just the result.
But it was an excuse that they would give up their lives because they said it was for their own good.
If there is any chance that we can deter such behavior at all, there is no reason to hesitate to act in appealing to the other's conscience.
"... ok. I'll be careful next time."
"Hmm, I really want you to do that."
It's best not to have this happen again in the first place... well, what's the story around that, chase and stuff?
Whatever it is, it's finally over.
Thus, as I was exhaling my breath of relief again, I felt a fuzzy glance.
If you look me in the face, Aina and Sheila are staring at me like I said something.
I guess it's natural to say that we both have a lot to say, but I just didn't know exactly what I wanted to say, and I leaned my neck.
"You look like you're saying something, but what happened?
"... I've got a lot to say, well, it looks like we've worked it out for now, so let's just do it"
"... Well, if we're all safe, there's no problem"
"Is that so?"
Well, I don't like it and want to be complained about, and honestly, there's nothing I can do about it, so I shrug my shoulders and respond.
And, with that said, even if it was something that bothered her, Aina began to look around with a strange face.
"And yet, what was this world after all? As familiar as I think I've often been to a place like this for a while, all I don't know is what it means..."
"... n, all the things I don't know"
"Sure...... to be honest, I was a lot confused too. If I'd been thrown into this world without knowing anything, I'd be in terrible trouble."
To those three words, I nod so much.
Indeed, was it natural to hold such thoughts?
Anyway, at the time of this little park, it's just something that doesn't exist in that world.
Perhaps Felicia has a talent for acting inside, around how many non-eating faces she looked in there trying to live as usual.
"Well, certainly, from Eina and the others, it would only be strange here."
"From the way you put it, you sound different?
"It's more of a familiar world for me."
"... are you used to seeing it?... Why?
"This place was built on the world of my predecessors."
"... previous life, is it?
In the previous life, the three of them showed a decent face to the word.
Well, naturally again.
By the way, here's where Soma wanted to talk about her previous life, because that was easier to explain the current situation.
I didn't have any particular reason to hesitate either because I was just keeping it quiet because I thought it would be incredible from what we talked about rather than from what I had originally hidden.
I shrugged my shoulders at the appearance of the girls not reacting other than repeatedly blinking.
"Um, actually, I had memories of my previous life. Finally, Iori is from the same world, and he was a classmate of my predecessor's, right? It didn't feel like I was spending much time here."
"... heh, yeah"
"... I see that's what happened"
"......, Convinced"
But now it was Soma's turn to blink his eyes at the reaction he returned after telling him so much.
Sure, I wouldn't have hesitated if I wasn't going to hide it, but I'm aware it would be quite surprising.
But despite that, the reaction was just faint, and I wasn't even surprised by the three faces.
"Hmm... isn't that a lot less responsive?
"... now?
"Well, that's right. Not that I'm not surprised, but I feel more convinced one way or another. Well, that would convince me... no, I'm sorry, I might not convince you after all."
"It's so out of standard that it has nothing to do with previous life."
"Mmm... is it a reaction that I'm somewhat uncomfortable with?
"No, I think it's a reasonable reaction, right? I don't think even I deserve a surprise."
"- Become!?
The moment they heard the voice, Aina and the others reacted in unison.
I marvel at that face and take a fierce battle stance.
The faces were all pointing at the same place, and if you turned your gaze towards you so that Soma too, it was that demon boy who was there.
"How could you... Huh!?
"Oh, there's nothing to be alarmed about, is there? Because I don't have any power anymore. Maintain this body, so it's the best you can do. And why do you want to ask? It's more of me, isn't it?... Why didn't you kill me?
Soma shrugged her shoulders at the gaze and words directed at her so.
Indeed, it does not mean that this demon, like Felicia, was resurrected as a result of the decision that there was no such thing as its death.
I just blew up most of that power from the start, and I didn't kill it.
"I don't care why you say that... there's no reason to do that without that? The powers of the witches could not be left behind, and they were mixed together, so they had to be wiped out, but they were unnecessary."
"... I think that hostility to you and the attempt to kill you is enough reason?
"To that extent, is it? My mind is not so narrow as to bring up what I know is impossible and make it for any reason. Besides, was it all for Felicia?
From start to finish, this demon was only acting for it.
He also made them hostile, in order to absorb and cause to blow up most of Felicia's witch powers.
Without that, I would have had more difficulty disconnecting the powers of the witch from Felicia, and in case there was a chance.
With that in mind, there's no reason to kill him.
"... at all, you're a troubled man. I'm the devil, right?
"Thanks to you, I know the devil has many things to say."
Honestly, I have my thoughts.
But it is not against this devil, but against the devil himself.
I thought I could pay back a debt I couldn't fulfill in my previous life... but they can't put it in a lump sum just because I'm a demon.
I shrug my shoulders as I now take that for granted.
And as if he had predicted the timing, when he entered the world, he was scattered in pieces.
