A dark, damp, and somewhat cold world. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 infoWhen consciousness returned, the first thing Natsuki saw was such an environment. But in fact the word look should not be used, because he felt the blindfold covering his face.

When I moved my body lying on my side slightly, I felt uncomfortable being tightly bound. The fear then began to creep in, and he was already somewhat confused about the current situation.

Oh, yes! Because Garfield found out about the witch smell on his body, he was beaten up by that bastard.

After a short period of amnesia, Caiyue Pleiades, who had already found some memory nodes for the situation in front of her, was inexplicably a little flustered. To be treated like this for no reason is to treat him as a complete enemy.

"Murderers have a chance to complain, Garfield, you brainless bastard. Cursing the guy who was not in front of him, the gnashing of his teeth stretched out his arms with all his might, but there was no way to get rid of the rope that bound him.

"I'm so angry that I'm going to scold the emperor, do you need to tie it up so tightly? Why do you want to show unreasonable attention to me at such a time. Thinking of the black blindfold on his face and the tightness of the rope, Caiyue, who was completely speechless, turned her body as if giving up, and changed her posture from lying on her side to lying flat.

As he gave up struggling, his surroundings gradually calmed down. The faint sound of birdsong passed through the air to the ears of Natsuki.

It's supposed to be daytime, although I don't know exactly when. But at night, the sanctuary is especially quiet. The eerie silence seemed to highlight the deserted village style of the Sanctuary, and the subhumans who lived here would all disappear at night.

Of course, in fact, sub-people are also very difficult to see during the day. Anyway, Caizuki has been in the Sanctuary for so long, except for the first day, he hasn't met anyone other than Garfield and Ryuori.

At this moment, humans and sub-humans living in the same village seem to be separated by an invisible boundary between the two worlds, living a life where no one disturbs the other.

What a thought about it...... It's boring enough!! Cai Yue Pleiades sat up violently with resentment, and began to complain to herself frantically in her heart: What the hell am I thinking, is it because I was imprisoned?

Why can't I do something more meaningful, like break out of prison?

Ahh It's so strange to use a word like jailbreak, obviously self-redemption. Caiyue, who was correcting her concept in her heart, finally made up her mind but lowered her head in frustration: No, the rope is too tight.

"Garfield, you bastard......" Caiyue's cursed words stopped like a cassette, "Speaking of which, how did Garfield smell the witch smell on me? When I just returned, it was during the day! At that time, Garfield was obviously not abnormal at all......"

"But why did he suddenly smell me at night? It's not like a day has passed, and his nose has evolved. Leaning her head on her bent knees, Natsuki fell into an endless whisper, "Calm down, be calm." If it were Dad, what would he think?"

The man behind the hiring of Elsa, Betty's Gospel, Garfield suddenly smells of himself. What is it that ties these threads together?

Biting his lower lip slightly, he didn't need to look at Caiyue Yue to know his current self, and his face must be super ugly. But he still had to continue to complain, "I'm so hungry...... Is Ram stupid? She couldn't even feel the lack of a person in the house...... Can't feel it?"

Repeating the last few words again, a crazy thought suddenly appeared in Natsuki's mind, "Is it possible that Ram also knew about Garfield's behavior, or that Garfield had the consent of her and Rozval?"

"Think again, think again, am I still ignoring something. Natsuki Pleiades, who whispered softly, faintly felt as if she had come into contact with a little bit of the truth.

Perhaps it was a godsend, but as he pondered in silence, there was a faint sound of conversation from the next room.

"Is your body better?"

"Ah-what to say. It's good to hear your words, it seems that you are one step closer to healing. ”

It was the voice of Rozval and Ram, and Natsuki quickly pricked up her ears.

"How's Mistress Emilia?"

"Mistress Emilia has woken up for this. I brought her dinner, but she doesn't seem to have much of an appetite...... Then she said that she was ready to go back to the trial later. ”

What? It's already come to this point, why does Emilia still force herself? Let her body cling to the wall, pricking up her ears to eavesdrop, after knowing the news, a completely incomprehensible thought flashed in her heart.

"Our king is really an unexpected effort. ”

"I already have someone I want to protect. When I tried to dissuade her, Mistress Emilia replied to me like this. The cold and flat tone, just listening to the voice, reminded people of Ram's expressionless face.

"Is that so? I see, let's stand down. ”

The brief talks came to an end with Rozval's words. The slight sound of the door closing, the sound of footsteps, and when all these external sounds were gone, Natsuki leaned against the wall tired and sad.

Why do you have to work so hard where he can't see? He's not in the cemetery at all, Amilia! Obviously I like you like you like this way, and the person who likes you the most is me, why can't you see me in your eyes?

……

……

You've always been guarding me, and since the first day I met, when I looked back at the marks of the past, I suddenly realized that I had known each other for a long time. The girl sitting alone with her knees hugged, resting her side face on her lap.

"Mistress Emilia, it's time to go. Have you really figured it out?"

"Yes. ”

The girl who sat quietly in the room stood up silently and tidied up her clothes, then pushed open the door and walked towards her waiting partner.

Outside, the moonlight was still on, and a few stars twinkled lonely in the sky. The group that went to the cemetery looked a little depressed because of the silent girl.

Sometimes I will gradually become obsessed with your gentle protection, as long as I look back, I will see your smiling face, and as long as I reach out my hand, I can hold your thick and rough palm.

I hope that there will be more and more memories of this together, and that time will be getting longer and longer, will I be a little greedy? I hope that you will always be by my side. Then, on a moonrising night, we sat together in the courtyard and talked about our stories.

I, ah, will never forgive the guy who trapped you in the cemetery, whoever they are or what their purpose is.

This time, I'm going to protect you. (To be continued.) )
