Volume 8 Chapter 5 Part1 (2/2)
Her skin, exposed to the sandy wind and sun, was dull brown Her face was full of freckles The clothes she wore nowadays were so tattered that even vagrants didn’t wear them, and on top of that she wore a thick linen cloth on her shoulders
So as she still beautiful? The ansas simple
It was due to the color of her hair that didn’t fade nosun shone or it or even if sand clung to it It was the proof she was born with a Magic Right, a color different from ordinary people
It was a bluish deep purple Also, only her forelocks were as white as snow That idiosyncratic hair was braided Her yellow ribbon looked like a bee resting on a petal Her father called it violet hair
She never saw the flower called a violet, but using her hair as an exaht that it was probably a beautiful flower
“Have you forgotten Chacoly’s ability?”
Chacoly grinned, exposing her teeth Recalling that hiding things frohed
“I’ve forgotten I acknowledge it I’m just a little bit sad”
“Yeah”
Chacoly’s s lost her father spread on her face again
Lascall spoke to both of them
“Well then, I shall now leave you two I pray that your future will co conclusion”
Lascall’s body sank inside the sand Chacoly waved her hand to see his
“We’re out of things to do What shall we do from now on, Hammy?”
“Just like ere told We’ll leave this place and go somewhere To wherever we please”
Hamyuts pointed at the cae had been loaded unto two camels They ater and food to cross the desert as well as clothes and daily necessities for when they reach a town On Ha and many stones
“Where e go?”
“For now, to town There’s no other place to go to”
“Yeah, Chacoly thinks the same”
They got on the cah the desert
The ca in the desert The pair barely spoke these last several days
“Say, Hammy Will you please always stay with Chacoly?”
Chacoly said
“Don’t wanna”
Haain Chacoly tried speaking to her and Hamyuts rejected her This was repeated
After a long tiain
“Have you decided what to do afterwards, Hammy?”
“I have I’ll get killed by someone somewhere”
Chacoly made a sad face
“It’ll be sad if you die, Hammy”
“But there’s no choice I was born like that”
“I don’t want that to happen Go with me”
“Not a chance No fight can happen near you So I won’t be killed Besides, when you’re there I become unlike myself”
“Can’t be helped It’s because Chacoly has this ability But she wants to be with Hammy”
“I’ll say this as many times as needed, but no”
“…Really”
Soer seeped into Chacoly’s voice Her violet hair swayed
“…!”
Harimaced In an instant she pulled out a stone frorazed Chacoly’s face Blood flowed from her cheek
“Chacoly! You’ve promised not to use your ability on me!”
Unusually, Haet angry and lose control
“Sorry, it wasn’t on purpose I activated it unconsciously”
“…Don’t do that again”
“It’s a promise”
They went silent again
Along the way there was only one time when Hamyuts spoke up to Chacoly
“Chacoly From now on, no matter e meet, you can’t reveal my identity”
“…I know that”
“If I’m revealed, no matter by what means, I will kill you”
“I know that”
“If ranted They will confine me and I’ll spend the rest of my life in prison
They’ll pour all of their energy so that neither the Ar God Cult will kill me”
Ha her won’t solve anything Theycorpse She will spend the rest of her life tied to a bed
“…I can’t let that happen Chacoly will defeat Ruruta after all If she does that, Hammy will be free You’ll be allowed to live”
Chacoly said, s
“…It has nothing to do with Ruruta Wanting to be killed is my oill”
“You want to be killed no matter what?”
“Obviously I was born like that”
There alas some sorrow inherent to their conversations While their relationshi+p was the closest and they both shouldered the saht
Chacoly was born to be loved, and lived to be loved
Hamyuts was born to be killed, and lived to be killed
The roads they walked in were cruelly different
Before long they approached town They time for them to separate from this life also came close
Ha that froain She will later end upthis at the time
“Since it’s our last time, let Chacoly try to predict what happens to you Hammy from now on”
“Do you have calico hair?”
“No, but Chacoly can even without any Predictive ability”
“What’ll happen with me?”
“You will go to town, find a normal job, fall in love with a normal man, create a normal family, with kids as well, and then, either by some disease or your life span, you will have a normal death”
“Impossible”
Hamyuts shook her head
“It is possible
Hammy will not be killed by anyone You will always, always, want sos will be”
“Because I’?”
“You’re definitely the world’s strongest, Hammy But that’s not all”
After a short while of silence, Hamyuts replied
“Not gonna happen I will definitely be killed by someone Even if no one kills me, there’s still Ruruta If he makes a move, he will definitely come and kill me”
“That won’t happen, either”
“Why?”
“Because Chacoly’s here Chacoly in and save Hammy”
“…”
She didn’t tell her she can’t Since it was Chacoly she ainst Ruruta Hamyuts could understand that
Before long they could see a town Chacoly opened her own luggage on her ca from inside of it
“Hammy”
Chacoly threw so It was a stuffed doll It was an animal Hamyuts had never seen before
“What’s that?”
“A present Take it Daddy gave it to Chacoly, but you don’t have one right Hammy?”
Hae ani that existed in this world
“It’s called a rabbit Daddy said it’s the cutest animal in the world”
“What’s with the long ears, it’s disgusting”
“Chacoly also thought so at first, but now Chacoly likes it You’ll definitely come to like it as well, Hammy”
“…Even if you ended up liking it, I hate it”
Ha so after separating fro She couldn’t even i that doll even when she was thirty years old
Neither the fact that just like Chacoly said she would end up loving rabbits
Hae She then silently pulled the camel’s reins It bent to the left She bid farewell to Chacoly at her back Without pursuing her, Chacoly kept advancing straight ahead
“Hammy! Take care!”
“Don’t wanna!”
Ha her hand She advanced without looking back
“I love you! Always!”
She didn’t kno to reply Should she reply ‘me too’? Should she reply ‘only you’? Since both were true and both were a lie Hamyuts hesitated
So she answered the following
“Only this once, you may read my mind!”
“Okay!”
Ha into her mind How did Chacoly read her current mind?
“Chacoly got it, Hammy! We’ll always be friends!”
She laughed inside herher head so that she wouldn’t be seen s she couldn’t see Chacoly’s figure even if she turned back
