I answered immediately
“He eak to alcohol, but he loved it, he didn’t like to calculate difficult things, and when ry at limpse of a beautiful older sister, he worked cheaplyThere are also 4 tiuarantor of other people’s debts”
“Th, that is……”
“But he was such a good father who helped me when the people of the town said, “Your smart son is in trouble”“Even at the three studios, the craftsmen ere indebted to s by himself”
My father’s nostalgic hter, so the appearance of the people in the city who are canceling various kinds of “Ginger” coht sky
“Although I don’t know it surely, it wasfor people and would feel co for everyone for that reason”
“……He was like Andy-san”
“Ah, I like alcohol but I am not in debts”
“For anyone, you´re desperately trying, to be kind to them and that’s why you care for everyone”
“……I wonder if I´m my dad alike”
“Maybe you´re”
Seleniuhed at me
“……However”
Wrapped in Seleniu her waran to return to as seemed to have escaped
“……However”
Wrapped in Seleniu her waran to return to as seemed to have escaped
“I didn’t payback anything to my father yet”
Tears coh I heard the story fro that Apple had a cold attitude, although I was shocked, I didn’t think it was sad at all
“I……I wanted to be a better son to himMy father, I wanted to tell himSomeday I would like to collaborate with hiht when I grow up to be an adult and let hihts, or, I wonder if it becoe his shoulders……I wanted to do it allI wanted to return the happiness that ave meI was happy to be born in Polka and I wanted to tell him that his son was fine, so I came back here”
I had a running nose in thethat I had lost
“……It’s fine, Andy-san”
“……Hikuu……uuu……u”
“Your dad, he was a really nice person”
“…………”
I tried to answer her, but I couldn’t answerHolding ins to talk kindly
“I, as far as I can remember, my elf rew up feeling that there was no place for half-elvesThe only one who accepted me was Apple who had not the saood, so we cahtBut I understandI feel like I’ to stomp the next day……Andy was the first to do it”
“…………”
“Do you know about Trent’s disease?”
“…………”
I shake my head sideways
“It’s a sickness where the body gradually becomes like a tree……it is also said to be a kind of curseI was hit by a poison arrow froin of the disease”
“Your relatives……?”
“Yes……the elves over there are overbearingThey don’t acknowledge the existence of their blood that is outside their willSo I was destined to becooodI was tired of traveling every day”
“…………”
“But Apple tried to help meFor me, Apple is like a half-bodyBut I didn’t think that the person anted to stay by the side always appeared without abandoning such meThat’s why Andy is so importantEven if Andy is h to be kept foreverSo anted to be your female slaves”
Gyuu, Seleniued me
“I know that when I was a child, I had reed was enoughWe wanted to beto educate me to think so”
“……I don’t need thatYou guys are mine”
“That’s why Andy-san was so happy that he had tears when he learned that he still had a half-elf as his own loverYou’re the owner of us because you really knoe areThat’s why I thought Apple would be happy, too”
“…………”
“I wonder why it’s going to happen like this……We don’t want such luxury and happiness”
“……Selenium”
I felt the warmth of Selenium and told her to squeeze me
“I’ive upThe dream which had been seen here is never made the memory hereSomeday, I want to make Selenium and Apple happy……So if Apple can’t reainI’ll turn her around”
There is no place left in this town that I should standThe house which had to be inherited isn’t available anyirl as sure to wait didn’t wait for me eitherHowever, I was born here and fell in love here and I have lived ai back hereI have no recollection of itI don’t have a houseI’m still not defeated by realityI don’t have a hard tiI want to be happy
Ten bells rang in the distanceBonfire is half burnt out and no one ca timeHowever, there was a sound of water soht have seen the naked Seleniu Selenium wasn’t supposed to be noticed and didn’t see anything

“……Andy, Smithson……”
“…………”
“I don’t know…… I can’t remember at all……”
“Why do you feel like this……?”
Chapter 36: The waiting reality
She had the ability to judge a character
“You are Andy Smithson” “……Yes” “Doctor……I heard from Hildsan and Selenium……You helped me with Selenium’s torrent disease and my half-death state, didn’t you?” “……That will be so” “That……thank you, very muchSince it seeht that I only have to say thank you” “……Uh”
The half-elf girl talked as if she was embarrassed with her unclear thankful thanks before she stared at er
“Apple, why do you stare at me” “Selenium……because of this person” “This is the person who loved AppleHe was the kind of person who loved to cry that you didn’t want to leave” “But it is not normal anymore, like a collar or a fee” “Apple!!”
I raise my hand to stop Selenium, who raised her voice
“It’s certainly not nor” “Andy-san……” “……It isn’t wrong”
I aood
“More than that, she forgot about 15 years or more, which is hard for her” “…………”
Apple looked very uneasyThe only Seleniu that Apple herself should also be a fe her slavery to an unknownsuch a thing in the life of the persecution of the half-elfIf she doesn’t understand anything, shedesperate nowShe needs a friend now
“Seleniuive me a minute with Apple” “……Yes”
In the hands of selenium is the old collar that was supposed to be returned to AppleA childish promise that lost its value……My life support has lost itswas not representations in that, and feelings which disappeared before it went around in the body when the one like the e been wrapped in haze suddenly while spinning the ith the care in the mouth while spun and was tastedI wonder if this kind of feeling is emptiness
———————-
Seleniuo out to the street
“Is itHildsan, the answer ca like that, even if you sprinkle water on a dry cuisine, everything will return to its original state” “……I see” “But perhapsShewith ic can’t heal thecolor
“You can show your memory to a person, you can send a false event, there is a way to brainith ic, but there is no way to heal wounds of the heart, inally in a different shape, and because it is a delicate thing, putting the hand is not necessarily healingBut it’s not healing, it’s reht”
For exaic to o, it is not healing to AppleIt’s just pressingEven if memory is broken, Apple’s “now” is only thereIf I were this I would compensate from a trustworthy world like Army or Polka that some memories disappeared, but none of the worlds supplements her memory anywhereThe one that connects her with oI realized it againShe didn’t know anything aboutabout her, just because the warain…… I a for herThat was somewhat sadIt is probably because Seleniuh it is done in a very small way
———————————-
Nonetheless, there is no point in keeping in mind Apple foreverI decided to proceed to finish the next ht upIt seeure out how I can explain this situation, Hildsan explains it briefly
“……Is that so, memory” “Hildsan’s story seems not to have better chances” “It’s possible, but I need to try to the utmost”
Hildsan says so to us……Well, after all, it would be that degree of hope, but if you don’t believe, your head won’t ell
“In the ht people” “If I can use it……I don’t mind it”
As I say it, it makes me somewhat depressed to explain tothat ht now, I’uests stay, so it see like this one” “Uh……well honestly, it see and like four people in a rooood to use the place where Selenium settled?” “No, no, it’s hard to recoood at all”
Just a little bit, getting back in a while, alk towards my parents home which is out of town
—————————–
And we arrived thereMy parents’ hoenerationsA brick house with a roof and the feeling of clinging to the ground
“There is a nice smell of immature iron”
Jeanne says with a nod
“Ied iron is different, this workshop is working properly” “Ah, that’s what it feels like if you understand”
The sense of dwarves’ o away, but I often don’t understand, but soed iron
“My father is probably inside”
I try to knock on the door, I felt so to put a hand on the doorknob, re that nize me……The hand is reciprocated several times between the doorknob and the plane of the doorEveryone smiles at such actions of meNever ot caught from the other side and a face jumped out from the other side
“Uwaa”
I’ht of irl……A child!?
“E, eh!?”
I surely should have been an only childIf ap where I ceased, it will certainly be about this time certainlyNo way
“Uncle, who are you?” “E……emm, past son……I´m supposed to be”
The child looked up at me with a suspicious look……HornTwo hornsShe looks like a hu uncle caht footsteps and a wo? Or are you already drunk during the daytime?”
I don’t know this womanIt isn’t my mother……WaitIt was supposed to be my house, which had been since the old days
“Who are you?” “Who are you?” “I’m Andy Smithson, I should be the son of the house owner here” “I don’t know”
The wouy
“Wait a , this isn’t your homePlease leave”
Point blank……Wait, it isn’t a joke
“Hey……I can’t do that, what’s going on?” “Calainst that powerBut lare at that womanThe woman shut the door and called someone froainThis tiantic man appeared
“Eo to the workshop” “Who, you´re……”
I finally realized that I knew the giant
“……Jackie, san!?” “Eh… ah, is it possible?”
Half-ogre and half-giant, Jackie RumeiroHe is my father’s discipleFrom behind Jackie, the woman still looks intimidates at me
“If you are persistent, ill call the military police” “Idiot!! Thisto say!!”
Jackie yells at the womanBecause of his loud voice, some snow of the roof fell down……I was a little relieved
“I ahter is bullied a bit” “Ah……”
I seeHuman distrust?
“Besides that, where are my father and mother……?” “……Ah, you don’t know Andy-botchan?” “?”
I had a bad feeling
—————————–
Under theI had collapsed fully
“…………”
Jackie’s story was shockingMy father was killed by a horse-drawn carriage long ago
My father see alcohol since he heard that I was driven into warThose built in the Trot army were still known to be safe, but I was placed close to the border on the final stage of the war, the war ended in the place where ere assaulted and I was incorporated directly into the corps of CelestaIt seems that I was deean drinking until he went out every evening and one day he was stueResidents of Polka, even if they have considerablyto theHowever, it was said that e was crushed by the wheels, whichas I can think of, it is the worst way to dieThen o of our house in disappointinally Polka is also easy to be attacked by monsters and there are also sudden attacks fro downAlthough there is the , it is a painful land to live by yourselfSo it seerated to Folklore in the WestAnd the house and workshop were entrusted to Jackie-san as supporting the workshop froan to drown in alcohol
If it is known that young ood idea to return the home and workshop to you……”
Jackie-san scratched his head while see a bit disappointed
“As you can see, I now have a wife and daughter……It’s hard for a half-ogre like me to find a house and workplace”
I understand painfully what Jackie-san saysHalf is halfIt isn’t like half-elves but it does not change with co to itThe land of relief that I had in ation, it won’t be so that I can relinquishIn the end, I couldn’t say anything to Jackie and his family and I could only address them
“Andy” “…………”
When I turned around, there was Seleniu bath, of course
“Here, is the men’s hot water” “I know”
“It’s still business hours, it’s not funny if anyone cohtly and sat down next to me in the hot water
“……But, I a as Andy thinks so, I will definitely be your female slave all the timeI’m with you everywhere♪ “Seleniuht about the conversation with AppleFor a while, the two of us looked up at the night sky in the hot spring for men with a bonfire
“……Selenium, my father is dead”
I tried to speak
“……Oh really” “Didn’t you know Seleniu openly with the people fro since Apple was shot” “……I see”
Speaking of which, she couldn’t have even entered the town until Celesta wonEven when my father died, SeleniuetherBesides, she ation to care about my fatherMany of the half-elves are spoiled by their parents, even if they can be related to soeneration
“What kind of dad was he?” “He was a useless father”
