Chapter 625: Main Story Final Arc : Shallow Vernal ~~ The Time for the Beginning and the End ~~ (2/2)

Of course, if I ask Eden-san to help me, she can definitely give the money my uncle and aunt had spent to them, and I could also ask her to erase the memory and record of my existence back on Earth. However, I don't want to do that.

I want to explain to them the situation myself and thank them for everything they've done for me, so I can proudly live as an inhabitant of this world.

That's why, I prayed to God for this wish. At this point, it is not yet a reality, and I have to go through the ordeal that will be given to me.

However…… I think that I'm already blessed for the fact that I'm given a chance.

I don't know what's in Shiro-san's mind. My Sympathy Magic obviously doesn't work on Shiro-san.

She's an authentic God who created a world, someone who has been watching over its destiny for a long time…… As for the last wall standing in my wish, I would say that she's the greatest one of all.

However, I also have a question within my mind. Why is it that Shiro-san asked me for a match in the first place? The words Shiro-san told me at the onsen in the Sanctuary…… Shiro-san apparently doesn't lie, so that means the things she said were the truth. However, that doesn't mean that ”she had told me everything I needed to know”.

If she calls it a match, then Shiro-san must have some kind of purpose…… She must have something she wanted to have.

I feel like there's something bugging my mind. I could feel anxiety in my heart, as if I am overlooking something important. However, no matter how much I think about it, the answer won't come out.

No, perhaps, that thing that is bugging me…… It's something that I need to find———– in the match against Shiro-san.

Putting my pen down, I closed my diary, got up from my seat and calmly turned my attention to my pocket watch. Hour hand, minute hand, second hand…… all of them converged in one place, marking the end and the beginning of the day.

The 29th Day of the Heaven month is over, and the 30th day of the Heaven month quietly began.

At that moment, the scenery changed. The sky was filled with stars, and under my feet was a field of flowers in full bloom…… The scene was fantastic, beautiful even, yet somehow, it feels lonely.

Looking at the scenery around me, I thought of the words I had heard back then.

————Night doesn't exist in the God Realm. I can turn it into night if I wanted though……

The current skies above the Sanctuary isn't the usual blue skies, but a sky filled with stars…… ”The Evening Sanctuary”…… So, this is the place Shiro-san chose huh.

[It was under these stars that your story began. I have recreated the night sky of that day. There could not be a more fitting scene for our battle than this.]

[……I guess you're right. Good evening, Shiro-san.]

[Yes, good evening…… Kaito-san. My dearest singularity. Come, it's time for the beginning and the end.]

<Afterword>

Serious-senpai : [I'm not going to say much here. Now, the main story's final arc! This novel's ”final” serious development sta…… Eh? Final?]
