354 351. The beginning of "Those who steal the dimensional reason".txt (2/2)
'I didn't expect Kanami to be over here: ....... Hmmm.
This ”dimensional power” or something like that was originally supposed to be handled by Yotaki.
However, from my point of view, even if you say so, there's nothing I can do to change it. It's because I circulated the ”demon poison” as I was told and this is what happened.
It is not a good idea to have a good time, but it is a good idea to have a good time.
I'm not sure I'll be able to find the right one. The size and sturdiness of your soul's vessel is what is important this time. To be frank, Yotaki's power is so different that I was surprised.
'Yes, ....... I don't think it matters what direction your power is going in anymore when you have so much cycling ability .......
Above all, both of you are in good spirits. We're on speaking terms.
That's all the more impressive. Now let's take it slow and grow it as carefully as we can.
The two of us talk alone, but there are some disturbing remarks mixed in with them. Hearing that our predecessors were in a state of unconversation, I braced myself for the possibility that I was giving them too much credit. I'll continue to be grateful, but I'll continue to be careful not to be taken advantage of too much.
However, as if he can see through my concern, Diprakra-san shrugs his shoulders and gives me a gentle voice.
'Mmm. ...... Let's call this the end of today's 'deal with the world'. Even though it's in the initial stages, I was able to confirm that both of them were 'vessels adapted to the demon's poison'. At worst, even if Onushi lives, this world's 'demon poison' will gradually decrease.
They don't seem to have any intention of forcing us to do anything.
Rather, they seem to be taking into account the strain they put on our minds and bodies, but I'm a little skeptical of their indulgence.
”What ......? Um, it's a global crisis, right now ....... Then you'd better hurry up and do a lot more: ......
The limit of the world will be reached in a thousand years. To us apostles, you are the second generation of the experiment. This is not a time to be rushed.
'Se-a thousand years later ......! Do you have that much time left ......!
I'm sure your human beings will feel that way, but we, the apostles, will not. ...... Anyway, we intend to repeat this experiment for several generations. It's not that I'm not interested in it, but it would be a big help if it was completed in your generation. I'm especially looking forward to Aikawa Yotaki's.
Diprakra-san looked not at me who was talking, but at Yotaki, who was wobbling next to her.
Sis-san also turned her eyes to Yotaki with the same expectant gaze and muttered.
''I don't think there's any need for a next one. You can definitely make it to the very end. I'm sure if you don't get sick now, you will. We have to hurry for the sake of the Lord, so the truth is more--
It's not me that they're expecting, but Yotaki.
''----!''
Seeing that, I felt a frustration that felt like boiling water gushing out of the pit of my stomach.
--again (...)
Just like in the original world.
All the pressure is about to be placed on Yotaki again.
The fact that I have no talent here is enough to put a burden on Yotaki.
That's not good enough. Absolutely not.
Perhaps reading my frustration from my expression, Diprakra-san hurriedly calls out to me.
''Well, more importantly, Kanami, ......! Take a good look at your sister. We are one step closer to not only our goal, but yours as well. Now you can see what I mean: ......? The essence of your sister's illness.
With sweat on her forehead, Diprakra-san pointed at her sister, Yotaki.
I shift my gaze to the tip of that finger and stare at it. Without forgetting the sensation of the 'Demon Poison' earlier, I gaze at the world and Yotaki's surroundings - gazing at it.
''......! What is this ......!!!
Yangtaki no longer released cold air from his body.
Instead, he was wearing a large amount of 'Demonic Poison'.
That 'Demonic Poison' had not finished circulating and was very thick. Just like Diprakra-san's explanation earlier, it had enough mischief to make me intuitively believe that it would harm people and cause their bodies to collapse.
''Kanami, do you understand? I hope that by combining the knowledge of the other world with the senses of our world, we can see what we can see: ......
The 'Demon Poison' exists around me and Mr. Diprakra as well. However, it's not like a magnet that collects iron sand like Yangtaki. It's only drifting with a gentle movement.
Only Yotaki is attracting the Devil's Poison strongly, as if it had the attraction of a star.
And as soon as the demonic poison is absorbed into Youtaki's body, it leaves the body. Furthermore, the demon poison which went out of the body headed back to Youdaki. The meaningless back and forth of the 'Demon Poison' seems to be putting an unending strain on Youtaki's body.
''No ....... The fact that I could see it makes it even more difficult to understand ....... Why is the 'Demon Poison' being absorbed so much, only by Youtaki .......
I'm guessing that this is runaway aspiration caused by an overabundance of talent. By the way, the Sith have made a deal with the world to avoid the evil poison, and the symptoms have subsided.
I know the details of the treatment that Sith-san gave me during the summoning of Yotaki, when I wasn't there.
At the same time, my longstanding doubts are being cleared away.
In other words, there was no small amount of ”demon poison” in my former world as well.
It's just that I wasn't aware of its existence, but the demonic poison had been eating away at my body for a long time. Naturally, there was no way that modern medicine could cure him. No matter how hard I tried, Yotaki could never be cured in his original world.
''That's right, it was ....... It's not that my efforts weren't enough ....... Haha .......
He sighed with a mixture of exhaustion and relief.
I was frustrated at the fact that I'd been running a maze with no way out for so long, but more than that, I was glad that I got the treatment in time.
That Youtaki's life is my top priority, and Sith-san speaks near me.
'Hey, Diprakra. I wonder if you wouldn't do the revolutionary treatment I suggested for Yotaki: ......?
That absurd treatment? That is out of the question. A man's life is at stake. Be a little more careful. For now, keep away from the 'demonic poison' that's causing it and check on Yangtaki. It's for the best.
''It's not sluggish ....... I think it would be easier for Yangtaki to try everything in a hurry.
...... haha. That's why I can't leave it to you.
If it wasn't for Mr. Diprakra, it seems that the risky treatment would have been tried at Mr. Sith's discretion.
Immediately I grasped both of Ms. Di Prakra's hands tightly and asked her to never change her treatment charge.
'Mr. Di Prakula! ...... I still don't know what to do about it for me. Please, please treat Yangtaki.
Yeah, I'm in charge. I can't promise you a complete cure, but I promise to do my best to cure Aikawa Youtaki. It will be to our benefit to find out what's wrong with this disease. You can trust me on that.
Sis-san, looking at the situation, starts muttering with her mouth agape. Apparently, he doesn't like the fact that I'm relying on Mr. Diprakra.
''You could have left it up to me ....... I'm definitely better than Di Prakula, but ....... If it were me, I'd be more ...... all at once.
All at once, .......
What's he going to do all at once, this guy .......
As far as the words that escaped Sis-san's mouth, if I had to rely on her, it would be only when I was really cornered.
I'm going to pretend I didn't hear what she just said and continue to talk to Ms. Di Prakula.
I will now move on to the treatment for Yangtaki. But I'll only be making clothes by myself. I'm going to try out a special type of cloth that will ward off the ”evil poison”. ...... What about Kanami? We've got room for you to rest.
He tells me the details of the treatment in advance in a way that I can easily understand.
Even if we don't know the mechanism of the disease, we know the cause of the disease, and that's why this is a symptomatic treatment. I think it's a good and solid idea to rely on external tools as well as internal treatments.
Furthermore, Mr. Di Prakula has always been very considerate of our condition.
A lot of things really happened today, but thanks to him, I felt like I could live this 'other world' life. However, Sis-san relentlessly shakes that reassurance.
''Eh? I thought you were going to have your brother working for you soon? You said you were going to send them to retrieve those 'vessels that can adapt to the demonic poison'. The Diprakra.
Sith. Sith, you can't leave the castle right now, of course. ...... It's a little early to get you out of the castle.
''Hmm ......, yes. You look pretty weak compared to Yotaki, who is sick. You need a little training, Kanami! Do you want to come with me to work on that one now? When you have that power at your disposal, you'll be stronger, okay?
'Hey, sis ....... It's only your first day. I'm tired of the current awakening. Above all, I need to give you time to sort out the situation, and I'll be back (...) .......
Mr. Diprakula tried to stop me, but Sis's invitation was a joy for me.
Appreciating the fact that he is not only kind but also stern, I reply.
'Yes. ....... Diprakra, let me try some more things here ....... I'd rather be moving than resting .......
I don't want to rest.
I may not be able to sort out the situation, but I know what I have to do.
-I'm sure I was called to another world in order to start my life all over again.
I'm not going to be the only one who can do this, but I'm going to be the only one who can do it.
Then I need to become strong.
I must become stronger than Yangtaki, and this time I must protect him.
You have to be able to find a way to control this ”demon poison” as soon as possible. For the sake of Yotaki. And also for your purpose. --Now, I'll do my best.
It's not that he doesn't trust Mr. Diprakula's treatment. It's just that he himself is still avoiding the promise of a complete cure. If that's the case, the one who would promise Yotaki a complete cure in the future - if possible, I wanted to be the one to make the promise of a complete cure.
''Haha! I was hoping you'd say that! You really know your brother well, don't you? People need to risk their lives to deal with this ”evil poison”! And we have an obligation to contribute to this world! I'm not going to take a day off! Alright, I'll go with you for some serious training! Not as much as Yotaki, but my brother has a lot of promise, too!
Mr. Sis ran up to me excitedly and took my hand in his. Mr. Diprakra watched it with a bitter smile without stopping.
'At ......, am I here to watch your brother? If you just want to rest, I'll be fine here.
Yotaki approached a nearby tree and sat down, resting his back against its trunk.
If possible, I'd like him to sleep in his bed, but I guess he doesn't need that much rest right now. A little happily, slowly, it throws its eyes at me.
''-- Brother, I'll be watching you all the time. So, please do your best.
Those words of support will decide everything for me.
It doesn't make any difference if this is an 'alternate world' or a 'magical world'.
' ......! Oh. Watch me, Yotaki. I will definitely help you. ......!
-- that's the way I'm made.
I love my sister, I vow.
I will definitely understand the ”demon poison” and completely cure you of your illness. If it's for that, I'll do anything. In my former world, I could only watch as Yotaki grew weaker and weaker, but that's no longer the case. You can work for the sake of YouTaki. You can work hard for YouTaki. You can live for the sake of YouTaki.
Hmm. I'm counting on you, brother.
Yotaki laughs for me.
That's all it took for me to be happy.
