―○●○―

When I came to, I found myself in the white dimension

The usual white dimension

I can count the nuers of both my hands and yet this place remained the same empty white place every time

And so whenever I caed to that of my former self

With a protruding belly and flabby soft fingers

My body being helplessly overweight

But strangely enough, there’s no longer that unpleasant feeling

That irritating feeling that welled up froer

And so I thought that it was nice in itself

I wonder if it’s because it’s been a long time since I’ve came to this place

Or perhaps

“Huh?”

That’s strange

I didn’t re time

There was no need to remove it

Despite that, just as I in this place?

Huh

Maybe it’s because I did so in the first place that I came here

I couldn’t re like that before I went to sleep today

Maybe it’s one of the children’s doing

No, but I had the feeling of witnessing so time

Ten years felt like a long silence

Somehow, my memory was fuzzy

“Yo”

My memory was fuzzy but my vision was clear

Within this white diuy was there as usual

A lump of mosaic

It was hitogami

But I wonder just what happened to him

Hitogae

His body was cohed up

On top of that, each of his li, and it looked like he was tied up with translucent chains

Like an RPG’s last boss

It’s like we have to bring down his right leg or his resurrection ic will be troublesome

“”

What happened?

Are you playing asealed?

“I’ve been done in”

By who?

“Do you really want to hear that?”

Just ill hear except me?

Just who is here except me?

“Try looking behind you”

When told to do so I turned back

I sawthere

They were standing with their backs to me

They were all unfamiliar people to me

An unfamiliar male and an unfamiliar woman

An unfamiliar Demon Race and an unfamiliar Human Race

Probably a total of 8 people

There was a faroup

It was Orsted

He never changes

But there were some uncommon marks on him

He didn’t have that black helmet

Furthere scar on his face

Due to that scar, his face looked even fiercer than usual

However, the people surrounding hi in contrast to him

Orsted wore that sahtly happy expression could be seen on his face as well

I couldn’t hear the contents of their conversation but I could tell that they all had mutual trust between them

The one as talking wasa boy

Probably 17~18 years old

With short hair, a good-looking guy with a sportsmanlike face

That’s definitely the face of a Riajuu

He looked Oriental

Still, that’s a nice sot there I wonder if Orsted’s curse was ineffective on him

When I was looking at hiroup

That child, as sitting airl rather than a woman

A girl with blue hair

Near her, a gigantic white aiting

Ah, I felt like I’d seen her somewhere before

She looked like Roxy

But she wasn’t Roxy

I aurd Race, but I could never mistake someone for Roxy

Then, just who is she?

Don’t tell meLara?

As I pondered, she faced towards me and waved her hand

No, it couldn’t be me

She’s probably waving her hand to Hitogami as behind me

When she did, thewith her

Perhaps he was asking what she was doing

She answered so to him and then that man turned this ith a surprised face

He also had an Oriental face

People with faces like that were few in this world

Perhaps he’s japanese?

He ht be in his 20sdoesn’t feel like he’s in his 30s

He faced this way and quickly bowed

His actions seemed japanese, so he’s japanese after all

Possibly

In doing so, all of them now faced this way

There were both young and old people

I thought that there were only 8 people at first, but it seemed that there was a whole crowd of them Under the mist, it was hard to see

The only familiar face was Orsted but

Ah, I wonder if that person is Eris

A warrior with braided red hair was looking this way

But she was a little different from Eris

Each of theratitude

I wonder if it’s towards hitogami

No, it’s a little different considering their manners

I wonder what

As I pondered, they stepped on the ic formation made by Lara and disappeared somewhere

All of them, suddenly vanished

The ht blue color

And then, after a while, the ht and disappeared as well

Everything disappeared

“All of thehed me up, and then sealed me

Because if I die, then the final Human World may be destroyed as well, or so they say”

It’s going to get destroyed?

“Don’t know Cause I wouldn’t know about the destruction”

I see

That’s obvious

Since no one knoould happen after they die

“Are you satisfied now?”

About what?

“This The conclusion you desired for

I will continue to live here alone with all of my powers sealed

I will continue to live here so that the world keeps on going

I can no longer see the world anymore I can’t even talk with anyone

After this, I will just continue to gaze at this empty white world, a scene without any boundaries”

I wonder

I wouldn’t know if you asklike if I’m satisfied

My objective wasn’t to bring you to this state

I simply wanted to live my life with Sylphy, Roxy, and Eris

Earningback hoht came, I would make children while all drenched in sweat

An ordinaryyep, an ordinary lifestyle

I would have been the most happy in that ordinary life of mine as far as I’m concerned

“Your happiness is h”

I see

Then, I’m satisfied

Because you look really unhappy right now

If that’s what become of you, then I will definitely be happy

“I seeis that sothat’s quite odious”

I couldn’t understand Hitogami’s expression

But his voice wasn’t filled with hatred

It just felt like he rapped up by sorrow

And then Hitogami spoke like he was about to cry

“I really hate you”

I see, but you know, I──

My consciousness paused

When I woke up, I was on top of a bed

A very large bed

A bed so big that even three people could lie down comfortably, and it was a very soft bed as well

No one was sleeping beside me

I could move my neck and eyes but couldn’t move my body too much

The blanket seemed a little too heavy

While s

When I did, I saw a red-haired girl sitting near me

Stern slant-eyes and a firm jawline

She looked exactly like Eris

But she had a docile braided hairstyle, and was far sht and breast too

She was probably 5 years old

When her eyesin her hand and jumped up in surprise

The chair fell with a bump and as she was about to fall down I quickly supported her

I wonder how I supported her even though I couldn’t move my body

Even I didn’t really understand that

But the girl put both her hands on the ground while in anized her posture that was about to fall, and after she tapped the floor with her feet, she immediately ran out of the room

“Mama! Mama! Great-Gramps has woken up!”

As she noisily ran outside I saw the thing that she had in her hand before

It was the bracelet carved with the Dragon God’s insignia

I didn’t re, she removed it

I unsteadily ht the bracelet

It fully heavy

No, it wasn't heavy, I sith

My hand had become so thin that it couldn’t even lift up one bracelet

And then, I caught sight of my reflection in the mirror

I could see the figure of an old man, whose body was sunken in the bed and looked like he could die at any moment

With white beard and white hair

Deep wrinkles

The shadow of death floated on his entire face

Ah, I remember

I was 74 years old right now

But, huh

I couldn't recall anything other than that

Looks like my memories had taken a toll as well

Was there such a room in my house

“Rudi!?”

The one who leaped inside the room was a white haired woman
