Chapter 2: Searching for the Future

Tokyo is the capital of the country. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info

I knew about it for a long time, standing in the street, the man looked up at the sky.

The sun was not shining enough to make him close his eyes, and his blue eyes did not blink, revealing a dead silence.

He was wrapped in a heavy black trench coat, but no matter who saw him, they believed that the effect of the trench coat was not to keep warm, but more, to make the man otherworldly, right?

It was just a different black trench coat, but it made him as solemn as a priest.

“・・・”

He lowered his head and opened the atlas in his hand.

Of course, I don't understand it.

Although the amount of knowledge that the Holy Grail holds is correct, if you look closely at the map, you still don't have a clue.

Come to think of it, such an aimless trip is actually super inefficient, right?

However, I don't plan to do anything more dangerous.

It is one thing to let all mankind perish without suffering, but it is meaningless to do it rashly and let innocent people die in agony.

Rodritte, now is not pursuing a path to save everyone, but also not a defeated dog who can sacrifice others to achieve his goal.

"Hello, do you need help?"

As a result, it seems that it has been delayed in place for too long.

Behind him came a question in English - I wanted to say it a long time ago, and there was really a problem with the English pronunciation of this country.

It's a bit weird, but because the other party is well-intentioned, it's hard to say anything.

Turn around.

It's a girl in front of me... No, it's not wrong to describe it as a young girl.

“・・・”

Wearing a primary school student's uniform and looking at his girl with a smile not only made Rod a little dazed.

What's going on?

She was only about 140 centimeters tall. He also wears a white hat with a round brim on his head, although it is not easy to distinguish his age. But, really, there should be about the fifth grade of the national elementary school, right?

Bent over, a little confused.

"Are you..."

“・・・”

Of course, it was Japanese, so the girl opened her mouth in surprise.

"What are you?"

After repeating patiently, the little girl finally shook her head and regained her spirits.

"Hmm... I can speak Japanese..."

Inexplicably, the little girl actually complained... I thought about it, and then it dawned on me.

"Your English is very good, in this age group"

Of course, it is not a big deal to be stingy with compliments. And for such a big child to have the courage to speak in English, and to speak like that, it's already amazing, right?

Touch your head.

"Eun... It's nothing..."

Unexpected pride...

The little girl's face turned red, and she coughed twice pretendedly, inexplicably cute.

Then, Fang continued the topic.

"But, big brother, what are you looking for?

“・・・”

How do you answer this?

I thought about it carefully, whether I should answer the question "I want to destroy humanity" or "I'm looking for a place where the world can end".

However, it seems that even if you say that, the girl in front of you will only take it as a joke, right?

At all, you won't be trusted.

So, even the meaning of telling the truth does not exist.

I casually reported a place name.

A certain park is a place that I just casually browsed on the map and remembered.

Now all Rhodes wants to do is to get rid of this helpful kid as soon as possible.

The other party's personality is so rare in this country that he doesn't fit in at all.

"Ahh

As a result, the other party seems to know that place...

"It's right next to my house, I'll take you there!"

Unexpectedly, the elated look? seems to be in trouble.

"It's okay, just tell me how to get there"

"It's okay, it's okay~ It's very close anyway~"

This girl is unexpectedly cheerful...

“・・・”

I can't help it, but I don't have a plan anyway, and it shouldn't be anything to accompany her around.

So, Bella took her hands and began to stroll.

After thinking about it, I still can't help but be curious.

"What's your name?"

In response, it was the cheerful smile of a little girl with long hair, which was definitely not a happy or outgoing smile, but an open-minded smile with some kind of emotion.

It's hard to imagine that such a young child would have such a beautiful smile.

Did you encounter any family difficulties? and then endured to enlightenment?

The hatred of the world has deepened again...

"Ah, I haven't told my brother yet..."

Suddenly, I feel that the title is progressing very quickly, and it is not clear whether it is an illusion.

"Isayama Huangquan, I'm called that now"

It was with a slightly declining smile.

"Is it ...

Nodding his head, he was pulled by the hand.

"Huangquan's words are a good name."

"Well, of course, Isayama is also a good surname!"

"Yes, yes..."

I really don't know what to say, but if it's such a child, do you really want to deprive her of her future?

He thought about it, then shook his head with a wry smile.

"Sure enough, are you thinking too much?"

It's a joke.

"What's wrong?"

"No, it's okay, little Huangquan, I just thought of something not very good..."

"Hmm...

The girl with long black hair and her waist with both hands puffed out her cheeks and pinched her waist.

The black school uniform was tied with a white scarf, swaying in the breeze, which made Rod feel a faint beauty.

"That's not going to work," she nodded solemnly, the expression on her small face a little unbearable.

But Rod didn't mean to laugh out loud.

"If you only think about bad things, you won't be happy, and only by working hard will you grasp what you want in your hands..."

It's the first time I've seen someone, but I naturally lend a helping hand and cheer him on.

Rod stood stunned.

"Is that so?"

I don't know how to answer, and my heart is like I've knocked over something.

A slightly sour feeling climbed up to the eye sockets.

Why do you want to work when the tear ducts are just simulated things?

"Uh-huh!" Huang Quan continued to walk forward, his hands behind his back, and his legs kicked, relaxed and happy.

"As long as you move forward, you will always be happy, right?"

Surprised, could it be such a simple thing?

No matter how much we move forward, this kind of thing will only bring more tragedies, right?

For the sake of one's own existence, self-interest, the impulse to make oneself better, the impulse to enjoy more, will only bring more harm.

One person is laughing, and then... more people are crying.

What a desperate thing to do...

"Really..."

"Well, of course..." Huang Quan turned around slightly, the corners of his skirt fluttering, and showed a bright smile to his newly met big brother.

There was a clear loneliness on her face...

“・・・”

Maybe... She just wanted to convince herself...

Take a step forward with your left foot and stay with your right foot.

There aren't too many people on the streets.

Disregard.

Rhodes got down on one knee. Facing the girl.

Smile.

Even if he is a knight who brings destruction, he wants to protect the young flower with his arm wrapped in armor.

"Yes, I see, that's the case..."

Touching the girl's head, I decided a little and did something willful.

Smile.

That's the perfect smile.
