“…… Aaron? You okay? ”

Jona looked at Aaron, who bowed his head and was silent, and after a brief hesitation, carefully called out his name.

"......" Aaron still didn't answer, his bangs covering his hair, but the corners of his mouth curled up strangely slightly.

This feeling was very bad, Jona hesitated for a moment, and couldn't help but want to say something, but at this moment, the space around her body began to distort, and even the air became thin, and the feeling of almost tearing appeared again.

Was the condition set by Kronos activated? Jona reacted quickly, as long as one of her and Pucci died, the other could be out of the era. With the winner already decided, she looked at the body of Father Pucci who had fallen to the ground, and after a moment of hesitation, she made a decision.

"Aaron, let's go together."

She didn't care that Aaron's state had become abnormal, and there was a slight glow in his eyes.

“…… Now it's your own story! ”

At the last moment of teleportation, Jona suddenly grabbed Aaron's hand, ignoring Aaron's surprise, and at the moment when Hades Fighter, Pandora, and even the Twin Gods did not react, the figures of the two disappeared together without a trace.

Greece - Sanctuary.

“！！”

Sasha was stunned for a moment, and then she showed a puzzled expression, looked at the woven grass ring in her hand, and looked out the window blankly.

The Pope, who served Athena, noticed her unusual routine and asked with a little concern, "What happened, Lord Athena?" ”

"Ah...... It's nothing. Sasha immediately smiled, she shook her head, but said to herself with a little worry, "Hades' little universe is gone, why ......"

…………

As the torn space returns to normal, Jona finds herself in an arena full of people.

Surrounded by frenzied cheers and shouts, the audience was almost full, and if it weren't for the fact that the audience was human, Jona would almost have thought she was back in the Dark Martial Arts Conference.

Where is this? Where else is there such an arena?

Jona was puzzled, but she didn't have time to worry about it now. She was still holding Aaron's hand tightly, and her palms were a little wet. But he succeeded in bringing Aaron back, and he was a little relieved in his heart.

I didn't expect it to be a success.

Originally, she just wanted to make a desperate bet, as long as she broke away from the original era, Hades, the Hades king of that era, would not awaken. Now that Aaron has been brought back with her, it means that the history of the last holy war is likely to be rewritten!

But what she did was also fooling God...... Forget it, she's dying, none of this matters anymore, as long as she can do it, then go and avoid sacrifice as much as possible!

"How do you feel, Aaron?"

She glanced at the teenager beside her, and now she was most worried about Aaron's state. She asks Aaron to help her complete the portrait of Enrique Pucci, which is an adventure and a safety bolt for her, although she is a little embarrassed by this angelic pure teenager, but even if she fails at that time, the world will not be destroyed by the acceleration of time. But what I didn't expect was that Aaron, who had hesitated for a long time to agree to her request, would suddenly use the power of Hades to kill the priest directly when the painting was completed.

…… It's not like Aaron would have done.

But at this time, Aaron no longer has the very weird feeling he had before. He seemed to look around the arena with some novelty, and did not answer Jona's words, but he still held Joanna and did not let go. After a long time, he finally seemed to come back to his senses, turned to look at Jona, and said, "A little surprised...... Where have we been, JOJO? ”

"The accurate answer, I don't know very well, it should be in a civilized era." Jona's gaze slowly swept down the audience, but when she saw the two people in the center of the ring who were about to fight, her whole body couldn't help but stiffen.

“…… I retract what I just said. ”

What the heck?

The two men in the ring who were ready to fight, it looked as if they were ...... Hisoka and Kurolo?

How could you see those two dangerous anti-human elements here?

Jona apparently remembers the time when she was kind enough to solve his problems for Kurolo, but Kurolo tried to steal her stand-in ability and failed. In the end, along with Hisoka, the soul of Asakura who came to her hair was burned to death (?). But they look very normal now, and their hair grows...... Did you use the breath of the archangel?

"What's wrong, JOJO?" Seeing Jona's stiff reaction, Aaron couldn't help but look at her curiously and asked.

“…… It's nothing. ”

Jona shook her head expressionlessly, her memories of the two guys had long since been thrown into the trash like a ball of paper, and she didn't want to mention what had happened before. But she never looked away from the center of the arena, as the people in the ring seemed to spot her as well, and Kurolo, after talking to Hisoka, suddenly looked back at her and smiled at her.

“…………”

"Is it someone you know?" Aaron asked.

"One side of the relationship, not to talk about acquaintance." Jona immediately denied it and pulled Aaron out of the stands.

She didn't have time to waste watching the duel between the two, her time was running out, and after careful consideration, Jona took out the paper figure that Asakura had given her before, and wrote down her situation on it.

Kurolo isn't in the same world as where she used to be, but at least it's good to find her. Because they probably didn't know what was going on with her, and by the time he came looking for her, she had no time, so Jona decided to take the initiative to inform the paper man, and after writing the name on the paper man's body, she released the paper figure at the window and watched it float high into the air.

“JOJO…… What are you doing? Aaron asked, looking at Jona.

"I'm looking for someone to pick me up." Jona laughed helplessly, then she stretched and said as if she didn't care anymore, "Next, it's time to write a suicide note." ”

“……”

Aaron showed a slight look of surprise, but did not show any joy or sorrow. Then fell silent and allowed Jona to carry him out of the arena's auditorium.

The streets of this world are just as prosperous, and the technology in some places even surpasses Jona's original world, and the scenery on the street is a bit new to Jona, but Aaron looks like he is interested in everything, he is silent and was taken to a café by Jona, watching Jona order two glasses of lemonade, and never speak.

"The word of inheritance...... There are also more than 30 million yen in deposits, as well as some cash ...... Mom doesn't need it, so let's help. ”

Others, as close friends with her, Jona decided to write them a letter by herself, and by the way, she reviewed her life. The letter to the Traces was easy to describe, and although there were many faults with the Traces, he was a good fellow, and the first friend she had made at school, and Jona was able to write most of the pages in no time.

"By the way, wait, maybe a teenager about your age will come and pick us up, he's my friend, if I'm dead by then, I'm going to trouble Aaron you to give him my body and take it back."

“…… Why. ”

At this time, Aaron, who had been silent, finally couldn't help it.

He didn't touch the lemonade poured by the waiter, his shoulders trembled slightly, and he suddenly slapped the table hard, his expression full of indescribability.

"Why can you say these things so easily?! JOJO: You're going to die! Aren't you scared at all and not sad?! ”

"Huh?" Jona was stunned, it was the first time she saw Aaron so excited, but she didn't care about answering, "Of course it's sad, I'm afraid of death every minute, but what's the use, the ending won't change because of how unwilling or hard I am, so I'd rather choose to live with a smile until the last moment of my life than to show weakness to others and finally cry and die ugly." ”

"......" Aaron stared blankly at Jona, his eyes were a little red, and he opened his mouth, unable to make a sound.

"Don't care, long before you meet me, Aaron, I was ready to die, although I don't want to die at all, but I am willing to accept death for the sake of the people I love."

Joanna touched the back of his hand comfortingly, and smiled slightly, this expression was as gentle as a real goddess, so that Aaron couldn't take his eyes off her face.

"......" Then Aaron abruptly withdrew his hand and lowered his head in silence again.

"I'm sorry...... Even though you say that, JOJO, I still can't accept it......"

Is there a way to keep you from dying, is there......

"It's okay, it's not your fault. Yes...... That's right. ”

Jona looked up, and suddenly something came to mind.

Originally, I couldn't say it, and I wanted to hide it in my heart forever. Since I'm going to die, let's not leave regrets, let's confess to Sesshomaru-sama. Yes, since I first met him, I couldn't like anyone else, even if I knew that he would fall in love with other humans in the future, I couldn't suppress my feelings.

"It's still a bit of a pity."

Ignoring Aaron's bewildered gaze, she picked up the fountain pen again and continued to write on the paper. If Kurama has a chance to return to the Demon Realm, I hope he can convey it to Sesshomaru for her.

"I ...... Get out a little bit and catch your breath. ”

Aaron seemed unable to sit down any longer, and stood up clutching his chest.

"Well, if you want to go to the bathroom, the bathroom is over there."

Jona casually pointed in a direction, and Aaron rushed out with the corners of his eyes covered as if he was in great pain. After a while, just as Joanna was about to finish the letter, a deep voice rang in her ears, and very naturally pulled away from the seat opposite Jona, stopping in front of her.

"Can I sit here?"

Jona looked up at the other party. On the man's handsome face, there was a smile that was not hypocritical, but purely because of his affection.

"Long time no see."

“……”

Jona looked at him, lowered her head again, and signed her signature on the letter to Sesshomaru.

- Your loyalty, Jona.

Then she slightly dried the ink on it, and finally responded to the other party.

"Is there anything wrong, Mr. Kurolo."
