Chapter 18 - “Hero” — “Heart Scan” “ — Scanner!! Are you even listening!?” Dark, barely lit underground ruins. A room surrounded by walls covered with cryptical paintings. The eerie atmosphere made the air feel heavy. The beacons lit in the four corners of the room were the only source of light. It was a place aptly described as “out of this world”. “...shut up. You know I’m using ‘Heart Scan’ right now. Any noise will disrupt the memories.” The words came from a man…

Chapter 17 - The Forest of Astray “...did you really have to accept that so easily?” Feli frowned. I casually replied “yeah, that’s ok” while tossing pasta in my mouth with a fork and spoon. Dvorg was probably satisfied after saying what she wanted to, so she already left. She just said we would meet again in Warrick’s shop, three days later at noon, and left the crowded restaurant without even waiting for a reply. “Well, I promised.” “Promise”. That’s the corny word I used. For me,…

Chapter 15 - Fear “Was that really alright?” The room looked like a hurricane had passed through it. Feli used her magic to clean it, removing all traces of blood and even the revolting stench of death. “What *that*?” “About her...” Feli then turned towards the open window, curtains fluttering in the wind. “We heard what we wanted to know. If there’s no risk of her targeting us again, then there’s no problem. I wanted to kill her only to get rid of a seed of concern.” So once she…

Chapter 13 - Sensation In the heart and in memories… In both of them existed various “locks”. If one’s heart opened to someone else, the distance between them became much smaller. If locked memories were released, they would overflow just like a river rupturing through a dam. Locks that worked like that. Something ground and grated. Various scenes flashed in my head. They all lasted an instant before moving to the next in rapid succession. A torrent of memories came alive in my head. Memories that…

Chapter 14 - Geass Scroll “You’re really damn careful, aren’t you…!?” Idies Farizard’s voice was dry. Her shadow had been stabbed by countless dark blades, as if they were sewing it to the ground. Her breathing was ragged, her complexion pale. Paired with the blood smears on her face, her skin looked just like a corpse’s. “...why won’t you kill me? Last time...you didn’t show a hint of mercy. Aren’t you weird…?!” When she showed me the illusion of the person I treasured more than…

Chapter 16 - An Early Reunion “...should the word ‘Curia’ tell me anything…?” I muttered under my breath. I scratched my head, troubled. I had so little awareness of international relations that a difficult word like “Curia” just made me give up trying to think altogether. ~ For me, brainwork was something for father, Grerial, and Stenn to do. I knew it was important, but I honestly thought such a grave discussion wasn’t something I wanted to hear at dinner. “This is a very important…

Chapter 20 - Shizuki Fithdan. A town located close to the “Forest of Downfall”, one might think a proximity to such a dangerous location caused it to be a small town with a scarce population, but, thanks to the forest, the surrounding area was rather peaceful and untouched by war. This caused people to gather, so the town was no solitary hamlet. We arrived in Fithdan after a few hours of travel from Diestburg. Feli was not with me right now: the only thing at my side was a shadow-colored blade, my…

Chapter 7 - Out of Place “Your Highness, won’t you strike a deal with me?” “...in a situation like this?” “Because of a situation like this, obviously.” I looked around to review our current status. I was surrounded by several unknown entities, which overtly exerted pressure on me. What I was facing was more of a threat than the proposal of a deal. Which prompted my question. “My request is one...Your Highness, come to the empire’s side.” The knight’s tone was for the first time very…
