The emotions stirring in his heart made the buzzing in his head louder and louder.

Finally—

For a moment, cracks suddenly cracked across the blue robin's face.

"Ah......h

The barber couldn't help but cover his left eye, stopped, and let out a low grunt of pain.

The intense pain made the nerves in his eyes seem to be beating.

"—what's wrong?"

The first time, Morgan heard his scream.

Although his tears have not been wiped away, his eyes have become blurry and red and swollen...... But she still wiped her face, and immediately grabbed the barber's left arm, and forcefully moved his arm away to look at what he was blocking.

I saw that the barber's face was like a broken porcelain......

The left side of his face burst out from his forehead to his cheekbones, a crack about five centimeters long.

The azure-colored left eye lost its look, became dim, and shattered like glass.

A pale flame surged out of the shattered pupils.

And as Morgan removed the barber's left hand, she saw the pale flames.

At that moment, there seemed to be a voice in my heart:

"You have a talent for birds, Fira."

A childish voice sounded.

Who's that?

"What is Asuka's talent?"

The next moment, a familiar voice sounded-

She immediately recognized that it was Fira, who was thirteen or fourteen years old.

Ah, that's my voice......

"That is...... As long as you give up what is on this earth, sooner or later you will fly to the sky.

"But I'm different. I can only run on the ground...... But I'll try to chase you in your direction. ”

“…… Then I won't fly. ”

"You want to fly!"

"I don't!"

"Why are you so unambitious—"

"I don't know any other birds, I only know you. If I fly away, I won't have any friends. ”

Through her blurred vision, she seemed to hear the voice of the stubborn teenager of the past: "If I can't fly with you...... I won't fly. ”

…… Where's where you 'don't have friends'.

You're going to have a lot of friends wherever you are...... It's just that I don't have friends.

But now, I'd rather you fly away...... Fly away peacefully......

"-Godfather?"

The vigilant voice of the lone wolf in front of him sounded: "What's wrong?" ”

He seemed to hear the godfather's muffled grunt in pain, and pulled Bigg to a halt.

"It's okay......"

The barber raised his voice and said, "Just keep going." Don't get too far away from us. ”

"What the hell is ......?"

"-We got it!"

The lone wolf wanted to ask for a clear understanding, but Big's louder voice immediately covered him: "Let's go ahead and see the road conditions first!" ”

Then he dragged the lone wolf farther ahead.

When the mood gradually calmed down, the cracked marks on the barber's face quietly healed.

Looking at Morgan, the barber's expression became inexplicably complicated.

…… Morgan even wanted to laugh.

Although she didn't know the "Godfather", she was all too familiar with the Blue Song Robin.

The expression on his face now is exactly the same as when he said in front of him, "I'll find a way to get you some money."

“…… Do you have any wishes, Ms. Morgan? ”

At some point, he replaced "Miss" with "Lady".

And such a title made Morgan's heart snicker.

She thought hard.

"No...... bar. ”

Morgan wiped away his tears and smiled lightly: "I'm very satisfied to be able to walk under the moon with him."

"You can know that he still misses me until he dies...... I feel blessed. ”

“…… What about other than that? ”

The barber earnestly asked, "Do you have any other wishes you want to fulfill?" ”

"Is anything fine?"

"Well, if you can't do it, you can do it."

“…… It's not that difficult. Only this time it's no longer possible. ”

Morgan smiled embarrassedly: "I just want to......

"Being able to lie down in the warmth of your home, in the sun.

"Feel the warmth of the sun, slowly fall asleep, and dream about him...... That's all I can be satisfied with. Don't expect anything else. ”

Such a simple wish.

But it's so hard to achieve.

As long as she gives up revenge and can accept that she disappears quietly into reincarnation alone, she can indeed do so.

But she didn't want to give up.

Maybe eventually she's completely exhausted and burned out...... You will take the poison and sleep in the sun.

- Until the end, she was unwilling to let the cause of her death change to "being killed by Kamalse".

If she really can't change all this, at least she has to choose the way she finishes herself.

"That's my last wish."

She emphasized.

"I took it. This desire. ”

The barber nodded slowly.

The expression is like asking about your birthday in the past, and you are thinking about what kind of gift you want to buy for yourself.

"So...... What was your initial desire? ”

Suddenly, the barber seemed to remember something.

He asked, "Before you step into this quagmire......

Because the barber suddenly remembered.

The day he killed Little Liuli and got the Blue Song Robin's mask......

He met Miss Morgan.

She said at the time: "In the end, looking back, it was indeed different. Likes to drink drinks, work to do, dreams for the future. Nothing has changed. ”

"What was your dream at that time?"

“…… Then? ”

Hearing this, Morgan was also silent for a long time: "Let me think about ......"

Unable to remember for a moment, she pulled the barber and continued walking.

As she walked, she thought and remembered seriously.

After walking out for a long time, she suddenly exclaimed:

“…… Ah, I remember! ”

"What?"

The barber immediately asked.

"Ah, it's a shame......"

Morgan was a little embarrassed.

But she was silent for a while, but she still replied softly: "Back then, I actually wanted to be a [hero]. ”

“…… Hero? ”

"Every kid wants to be a hero, rightly so."

Morgan recalls with some nostalgia: "In the beginning, I wanted to have 'admirers'.

"After that...... I want to be his hero alone. Be his hero. ”

“…… What do you think of heroes? ”

The barber whispered, "The darling of the media, the toys of the company, the foolish madman...... Or what? ”

"It's the wind. It's light. It's any force that's timely enough to change everything. ”

Without hesitation, Morgan replied, "I can be there whenever he needs me – I think that's a hero." ”

She asked rhetorically, "What about you?" ”

“…… A hero is a powerless thing. ”

The barber took a deep breath: "There must always be something to give, and there must always be some tragedy, so that a hero will be born."

"A lot of the price is borne by the hero's relatives and friends, and some of the cost is borne by the innocent...... Only a very small number of costs were borne by the heroes themselves.

"Heroes save a lot of people. Only the person who made himself a hero on that day and night could not be saved. ”

In his mind, he thought of his mother, who was weak and dead.

The thin limbs and pale face make me feel palpitations just by thinking about it.

"Heroes can't do anything."

He repeated.

"If I were the Unrestrained Demon King, maybe I could laugh and destroy the world...... But I can't. I have too much concern, a weak personality, and too many concerns.

"If I were an all-powerful sage, I might be able to change the world from the top down, so that tragedy would never happen again. But I'm too powerless...... My intelligence, my will, and my talents are only to the level of ordinary people.

"I can't do anything......"

"That's why you've awakened psionic powers," Morgan whispered, "and I don't blame you for using his identity." Because I know...... Deep down in the heart of any psyker, there is sadness.

"Because a person must fail completely before he can discover his true desires."

"I ......"

The barber stopped talking.

He felt a rare sense of confusion.

My desires...... What is Russell's desire?

“…… I want to help others. ”

He realized something and muttered, "I want to make myself ...... become useful. ”
