645 643 An Unusual Future (1/2)
”Fran, Mr. Sword. We're losing the connection!
Lane's voice was heard by us. It would mean that this incredible state will come to an end.
Finally, we have to call him something!
”Mm-hmm. Bye, me”
”Fran! I'm on your side, dude! Whatever happens, all the time!
It was shortly after I shouted so.
Fran with the earrings, me with the stupid bastard, and Lane over there disappeared.
'That's it, is that it?
”Yeah, we lost the connection.”
As Lane put it, I couldn't feel any signs already.
”Hey Lane. What the hell are those francs?
”That's the previous Fran and the previous master. It must have been right after Sierra and Zelaisse disappeared into our timeline.”
'You mean me... me with the swordsmanship going on?
”That's right.”
”Is that it, Master?
Fran groaned sadly. Apparently, you've imagined when I became that.
”What happens to that Fran?
”I'm sorry. I don't totally get it anymore. But, you know, the future must have changed a lot. So I lost the connection.”
”What kind of future was the future before it changed? Not so good?
”Fran runs wild at the end of despair and uses all his power to compete with the shards of the evil god sealed within his master. Involving a lot of people.”
That's terrible...... But it was true that Fran over there was in danger of becoming so. And I'm supposed to have to stop it, like that.
”But the future has changed, hasn't it?
”Yeah. Thanks to you guys. The words Fran and Mr. Sword spoke to those two people changed the future dramatically...”
'So you're saying that Fran over there no longer dies the way Lane said he did?
”Yeah. At least, Mr. Sword should have regained his heart. If the future doesn't change that much, the connection won't go out so suddenly.”
”Right......”
”All we have to do is pray that it has turned into a slightly better future”
”Mmm...”
What happened to us over there? Was Fran's heart a little healed? Did I become a sword at all?
”Master, I'm sure you'll go”
'Really?
”Mm-hmm. Because our words, they were arriving. So, go.”
'Right, right. Whatever, it's me and Fran! If there's a trigger, it's gonna change for the better, right?
”Mmm.”
