Looking at the inferior who was depressed and depressed, Delphinium also sighed.

"Actually, I'm scared too...... Because I still have mom and dad.

"I'm not afraid of death, and it doesn't matter if I die. But I hope that the people around me will survive......

"I don't want to be in the grief of the death of someone close to me than death. But at the same time, I was worried that if I sacrificed, my parents would be very sad.

"Bad guy, you may not know, but my mom and dad are very fond of Russell. If I told them that Russell had put himself in danger for the sake of justice, they would have urged me to help him.

"But at that time, they would still be worried about my safety. They will be so worried that they won't be able to sleep all night. The two of them would hold each other's hands and cheer each other up, but still be apprehensive. If I sacrifice, they will feel grief, but they will never regret it...... If I choose to run away and back down, they will reprimand me for my cowardice. ”

[But you have a lot of people to love, but Russell is just alone]

The news of the inferior came over.

- Not ultramarines, but Russell.

Because that's who they first knew.

The delphinium was silent for a long time.

She stretched out her left hand to cover her face, and her whole body curled up in a ball of exhaustion.

The white-haired girl muttered in a low voice, "You know what, inferior. Russell asked me why I was so nice to him.

"I said, 'Because you're cute'. But I lied to him. Because when I first saw the hero Ultramarine on the news, I didn't really think he was cute, and I didn't have a good impression of him. I just feel like I'm going to have one more colleague...... It's troublesome. ”

[Indeed]

The inferior nodded in agreement, and he was very understanding.

Because you have to be emotionally invested again, and then watch the other person die or fall.

When parting, it is always painful.

And this kind of pain, Delphinium has experienced many times. Because of her psionic powers, Delphinium is also very sensitive to this aspect.

With each parting, her heart was as painful as when she had activated her own psionic energy.

"But when I first saw him...... I had a feeling. I can't leave him alone.

"That's when you pick him up from the executive department. I saw through the window that he was standing alone in the middle of the gray-black buildings in District 1, as if he had been abandoned by the whole world.

"At that moment, I had a feeling...... It was as if he was from another world. Out of place in this messy world...... But that feeling of being out of place seemed to illuminate the entire dimly lit area. ”

[Your delusion is just that]

The inferior replied coldly: [Where did you come from, another world]

"Yes, I know it must be a delusion. But even if he became a hero, he didn't have any pride or excitement, and he didn't even have a fake modesty. That kind of 'differentness' made me a little curious about him.

"Until later...... The intrusion of the Hive nightclub. You don't know how dangerous it is, but I do...... I'm ready to sacrifice for this, but I'm worried that I won't have enough time and my skills will not be enough, and that it might end up affecting the innocent. But Russell did not hesitate to do it.

"When I arrived, I found that he had already taken care of the matter. At that moment, it was as if I saw another version of myself.

"Another ...... Stronger and more powerful than me, without so many constraints. That's exactly what I imagined, the real hero.

"Do you know how I feel about him?"

[Like?] Love? Or jealousy? Or is it worship? 】

"It's envy."

Delphinium whispered, "I want to be like him, too."

"I want to be like him, too. But my talent is insufficient, my education is too low, my body is too weak, and my will is not strong enough...... I have more worries, and my righteous heart is not as pure as his.

"With him, I feel more and more like a mortal. He was like the best me I ever imagined, a perfect me. I even have some low self-esteem...... Because I don't know what else I am better than him other than psionic level and experience.

"When I found out that he didn't know how to take care of himself...... It's a bit mean, but I'm actually very happy. Because a perfect god finally has a little flaw, and finally has a place where I can transcend, and a place where I can help him.

"You're right, I do have love for him. But that's not so much love, I think it's closer to family.

"Because a lover's love is always blind, selfish, and impulsive, but my love for him has a clear purpose.

"—I want to protect him. Protect him when he is in danger and comfort him when he is vulnerable...... I also hope that when I am in trouble, when I am in danger, he can come back and help me. And I'm sure he'll do it.

"I'm not going to let go anyway. If I can't stand with him at this time, maybe I won't be able to keep up with him after that.

"So I'll help to the end...... As long as he does the right thing, I won't back down.

"For now, it should be about Kamalse. It may also have something to do with the full cooked ones we caught...... It should only be at the level of directors, not yet at the level of dragons. I think it's still manageable. ”

【…… Why are you telling me these things? 】

The inferior was silent and looked at the delphinium.

The delphinium looked at him, her hands crossed and placed in front of her chest.

The fragility in her eyes dissipated, and reason rose.

"You're leaving, aren't you?"

She replied in the affirmative, "I guess you're going downtown."

"Are you going to change your identity and help him in another identity?"

The inferior did not say a word.

He didn't know how to respond, because he wasn't sure what the delphinium meant.

Delphinium raised her head and smiled confidently: "Then take my share with you, inferior."

"I can't leave this position because I still have parents to love. I also have my own career, my own life...... I can't give up everything to love him. The only thing I can give up is myself.

"Go where I can't see him and take care of him. I'll leave the affairs of the upper city to me.

"You go back, I have to deal with the affairs again and sort out the case records."

The inferior looked at her deeply and slowly took two steps back.

He was silent and left without saying a word.

When the inferior person was far away, the delphinium slowly picked up the towel and put it on her right forearm.

She folded her forearms together as if she were taking a nap at school, and lay quietly on a towel.

Her long white hair was draped over her shoulders, but it seemed to have lost its light and became a little dull.

After a brief moment of silence, her body trembled slightly.

“…… But I'm still, I'm so scared......"

The delphinium whimpered in a low voice, and the dark blue halo was extinguished in the corner of her eyes like a candle flame that had been extinguished: "Why...... I'll be scared ......."

As soon as her tears welled up, they landed on the towel, pale blue hue - it was also a poison.

The delphinium tried not to make a sound, and tried not to let the tears stain the clothes.

She doesn't look vulnerable in front of people...... You can't show people the embarrassment.

After that, she had to finish her makeup before she could go home. She can't be found crying.

Delphinium has always been a crybaby, since she was a child.

But from the beginning of her employment, she has been accustomed to crying in this way.

That's not about dignity.

Because she can't make people worry about herself, and she can't give people a sense of instability.

Delphinium must always be confident and reliable. She will take care of all, listen to all people's sorrows, and always be their powerful minister.

"I'm so scared...... Mommy ......"
