Then he grabs both of my confused cheeks with his hands.

''I know it's not right. Still, I want to take everything from Uzumi-sama. Right now, right here: ......

The two black eyes reflect only my image in a frenzied way.

I know that Nosfi needs me with all his heart. But I couldn't nod back so easily.

As if to escape, I confirm again what she wants.

I'm sure you'll be happy with that, if you can get your hands on the proof of that vow.　Do you really think you can fulfill your ambition?　Sorry, but it doesn't seem that way to me at all: ......

It's the only thing I can think of.

The answer is immediate, as if to block my escape.

That lack of hesitation leaves me speechless again.

”......!

I am the only one who is lost.

That hesitation accelerates and accelerates and keeps spinning in my head, just like in battle.

If I give her everything she asks for, that could be the end of the ordeal of the sixty layers. That's not a bad thing for me. It's a fascinating and very easy story (・・・・・・・).

But reason denies it.

First of all, the basic premise is that this is not the 'right thing to do'.

It's obvious. It is no longer akin to rape. Legally and humanely, it's out.

And it's not just me, but also Nosfi understands that.

In other words, she knows that she is asking for something that is 'not right'.

Honestly, I don't think that's where the straightforward unconsciousness is being fulfilled.

Indeed, in this unreasonable world - just doing the 'right thing' might make you unhappy. You may be happier if you choose to do 'what is not right'.

But can she be satisfied with what she has gained by making such a mistake and disappearing?　Wouldn't it just create another regret and regrets?　The questions are endless.

There are still reasons to deny it.

I simply don't believe that this act is an unconscionable thing for Nosfi to do. After all that, I can see Nosphy muttering ”this is different too” again. Not only the skill 'sensitivity', but also the intuition that comes from experience told him so.

I don't feel like this simple thing (・・・・・・・・) will make the guardian (guardian) disappear at all. I think what this girl wants is something much different.

But confirming one by one that ”this is different too” in that way may be the only way to get to the resolution of Nosfi's unresolved issues.

If you're ......, should we know that this is 'not right' and do what she says? Or should we deny her what she wants because it's 'not right'?

Oh .......

I can't shake the hesitation.

I can't narrow down the right answer.

The skill ”Parallel Thinking” is lost and cannot be divided, but the thoughts are accelerating everywhere. Calmly, he counted his gains and losses in order to win this battle. The sense of searching for the 'best' is the same area (level) as when you are in a fight to the death with a guardian.

The nerves in your brain are about to be burned out, just as they once were.

My face naturally contorts in pain.

To give in to Nosfi's demands or not.

I continue to wander and wander and wander and wander. ......

-- After that hesitation, the faces of my friends flashed through my mind.

First of all, the faces of my sister Yotaki -- and then Dia, Maria, Snow, Reaper, Sera-san, and the various benefactors who had helped me in the other world -- and finally, Rustyala. --

--Yes, Rastiala (・・・・・・).

At the far end of my thoughts, a girl with golden eyes was fluttering her long, shining hair.

She was smiling up at me as if she were peering at me from below.

My heart beat faster. My core trembled and goose bumps rose on my cheeks.

A burning sensation came out of the depths of my stomach.

It's not like Rastiara is here, but you suddenly turn your head away. I look away, not wanting even my imaginary girlfriend to see what's happening now.

...... I knew this from the beginning.

She (Rustyala) is the reason why I couldn't accept the word 'wife' from Nosfi.

The best way to think about it rationally would have been to use the position of being a 'husband' to take advantage of a guardian (guardian) named Nosphy. Just doing that would have hastened their return to earth by more than half.

But it couldn't be done.

For a very simple reason. Because there was another girl I liked. That's all.

So I couldn't admit we were married, even if it was a lie. That's the only childish reason.

When I understood that, all I thought about until my brain was seared - I threw away rational thought and gain and loss, and the words leaked out of my mouth on their own.

'Duh, no. ....... I can't do that, I can't ever do that ......!

With his face turned away, he squeezed out his voice.

I felt my body, which had been holding heat, cooled down by a cool regret.

I denied it in favor of the girl who wasn't here (Rustyala), not the girl who was lamenting her misfortune in front of me (Nosfi). I feel like I'm going to be twisted out of my body with guilt.

But I can't drink the spit I spit.

I've already made my choice.

I can see Nosufi's face contorted in my mind. I can see the future when shedding tears of sadness. If I ended up in a fight with her, it would be my fault.

I turn my face, which I had been turning away from, to the front of the room, taking a battle stance so that I can deal with whatever happens.

No matter what kind of Nosfi's reprimand, I'll take it, and I'll be prepared to take it--

What?

But that resolve is in vain.

What I saw in my eyes was the exact opposite.

It wasn't a look of sadness that Nosfi had stuck to his face.

The girl in front of her was smiling with her eyes wide open and the corners of her mouth hanging up in a two-yaa.

She looked very happy and surprised, as if she had met with unexpected luck.

And the biggest change was her 'magic power'.

Her magic power had visibly decreased.

Nosfi's body was (・・・・・・・・・) thinning (・・・・・・).

I know that phenomenon.

It's a phenomenon that happens when a guardian (guardian) fulfills his or her unfinished business. It is difficult for her to maintain her body because she no longer has any remorse.

She is so thin ...... that her very existence seems to be disappearing from the world.

'No, nosfies ......, the body is .......'

Confused by this sudden phenomenon, he pointed at Nosfi's body.

''--Ah, yes. I, my body, what's wrong with it?

Even Nosfi, who had been dumbfounded with a smile, came to himself.

He then brings his hands in front of his eyes and knows that his own body is strange.

'What ......, or is the body thinner ......?　This is the resolution of unresolved issues ......?

It seems that Nosfi knew the significance of this phenomenon, too.

Now, here and now, he understands that part of his own life's longing has been fulfilled.

Even more wide-eyed and amazed, Nosphy begins to ponder quietly.

What he's thinking about is perhaps the identity of his own unfulfilled dreams.

Anyone would do that. What he thought was unreachable has fallen unexpectedly and sprung up. It's only natural for a person to find out what caused it.

And when he came up with the cause, Nosfy laughed even more.

'...... aha!'

She laughed, looking very silly.

He laughed out loud, as if in desperation, with a face that didn't look like her chastity.

'Haha, hahahaha!'

She understands her own unconsciousness - and laughs at her unconsciousness.

No, it's too distorted to describe it as 'laughing'.

She is 'laughing' from the bottom of her heart as she ends up looking down at something.

'Nosfies ......?　Are you sure you have no more unresolved issues now ......?

I was half-convinced, but I was afraid to ask.

'Haha. Yes, not all of it, but it seems so. And finally, I can see it. My true passion, my true 'identity'.

Nosfi nodded back with a sunny face.

--even though she denied the wish?

It was a natural progression for me to think so.

”Hey, why ......, why is this ...... at this time?

'I wanted to think it couldn't be that way: ....... Well, it's just the way it is ......

Sullenly, alone, Nosfi continues to nod.

But I can't nod.

Nosfi has attacked me, but it's still an attempt.

I haven't been able to make a mistake.

I'm sure you'll be able to find a way to make it work.

For those of you who are not convinced, Nosfi continues to explain.

”Apparently, Uzumi-sama. It seems that 'making a mistake' for me was the 'denial of right' until today. Yes, all you had to do was 'deny' ......

'Making a mistake' and 'Denying Right'.

I didn't see much difference between the two.
