Nearby the tent at the main camp

Stepping onto the loading deck of the Porter parked nearby, I watched the for soldiers They all made expressions as if they couldn’t believe it

Hanging the Jewel on my neck, I confirmed it with the Third

“I wonder what happened I thought ould have to fight a while longer, but light suddenly flowed from the Jewel… and rained down on the battlefield”

Recalling that previous spectacle, I asked the Third There wasn’t anyone aroundclose

They were being tactful, guarding me from a little away

『Like hell I know? Well, perhaps this is the Jewel’s power as well The one who made this Jeas the powerful Septerissa Would it be a luxury to shout at her saying if she could do so like that, she should have done it sooner? … But perhaps it was the influence of Maizel-kun’s Skill I can’t rief, it’s precisely at times like these that I wish Milleia-chan was here』

The Third gave a joke- tactful Noanting to shoe h

“You’ve got a point”

『Lyle, I understand if you want to cry, but endure it a bit Sorry, but that’s just the sort of position you have right now But o on as things were I’ busier』

From the Jewel that once let out so many voices it could be called noisy, only the Third’s voice would ever come out I found it a little lonely

“… Third, was my father freed from Celes at the end?”

『Let’s see I think he was But even so, for thethem… and Maizel-kun put soht have a means to free the other charmed folk, but who knows』

I would’ve liked to have obtained it before it came to this

“… What should I do about my mother?”

『Even if she’s released, I think she’ll be punished It all depends on you, but it will be harsh, considering what‘s to come Those around will definitely de everyone how soft you are Well, I don’t think you should use any torture They’ll wonder why you’d go so far against family』

“It sure is a hard problem”

『That’s right It’s hard In this world, finding balance is a difficult thing Well, that’s just how it is You should learn your oay to find balance To be honest, whatever comes from here onwards is an unknoorld to ht』

I wanted to make a bit of time to sort out my heart

If it was someone I hated, perhaps it would have been easier But in the Seventh’s memory, I truly was loved I was able to learn that I learned… but that only saddened me more

There, the Third spoke

『At tier at these sorts of things, and ot plenty of those sorts of children around you』

As he spoke in his usual light tone, I refuted

“I’ve got too many of them that even if I rely on sorief, whose fault do you think this is?”

『Oh, so you’ve finally grown the balls to say it』

The Third laughed Laughed, and comforted me in his oay

… Baldoir made his way to Beil, who’d become a prisoner of war

His weapon reathered in one place, Beil had a standing with some responsibility When Baldoir showed up, he was alone

In the prison of iron, he sat with proper posture

“… So you’ve colad, Baldoir”

“Uncle I’m sure Lyle-sama will be here soon Please ask whatever you hen the time comes”

While Beil’s expression was tired, his eyes were serious

“I can’t say I don’t have a face to show him But could you make some promises?”

“… If it’s within an extent I’m capable of”

Beil looked at his nephew Baldoir, s a little

“I’ll take responsibility Otherwise, I’ll be dragging Lyle-sama’s feet Execution is most desirable But I seek a lenient punishh House, continue serving Lyle-sama from here on I’m sure that was ht?”

Baldoir looked at Beil and nodded

“… Yes I came with close to three hundred soldiers from the territory”

Beil laughed

“As expected of ht… completely different from me”

As Beil looked down regretfully, Baldoir posed the question

“Uncle, what exactly happened in the Walt house’s mansion? Didn’t you ever feel Lyle-sama’s cold reception was unnatural?”

Beil gave his answer as he was

“… It will only aht No, I moved just hoas told I never questioned it That Celes-sama was the one worthy of the house… when I think back on it, why did I try to make Celes-sama the head? Even I can’t explain it But even I once had my hopes on Lyle-sas of him”

Baldoir had seen Bahnseie And even with his family freed here to talk to, there weren’t any means to save him For the world wouldn’t believe such a tale

“Uncle, you could change your naht, serve Lyle-sama…”

“I have my own pride And I think it best Maizel-sama have more company The Forxuz House head killed himself I’ll take responsibility and follow after”

It seems he was already resolved, and Baldoir wasn’t able to persuade him any further…

… Within the Jewel, the round table room

There were only two seats with doors behind theht chairs, six had been lost, with silver weapons floating over where they once were

『The First’s greatsword… the Second’s bow… the Fourth’s dagger… the Fifth’s galient blade… the Sixth’s halberd… and the Seventh’s gun, huh I wonder if my sill fall short?』

Even if he spoke to hiht

(How ironic The only Walt to die young is the last to reone and disappeared earlier, it would’ve been much easier)

But they each had aThe Third could think back on it like that cothened his heart The Sixth taught him how to conduct himself on the battlefield and express hiave Lyle his feelings And the Seventh gave the truth he was loved

『What I can leave? I really don’t have anything besides rief, it really is troublesoets their expectations up』

Since the Second left They had discussed ould stay in the Jewel to the end But in the end, because of the level of difficulty behind their Skills, the Third and Seventh remained

『I barely have anything to teach him Should I just hand my Skill over and end it already?』

Even if he said his usual jokes, no one responded

The silver weapons merely floated above the round table

『… I want to watch over hiood But it looks like the end was entrusted toto leave to him』

Not in his usual aloof tone, the Third spilled his true feelings…
