"Well... even though you said that, it still doesn't really make sense."
The hand puppet on Yoshino's hand scratched her face. Because it was a hand puppet, her expression couldn't be seen, so she had to express it through actions like this.
After listening to Wanyuri's 'story', both Yoshino and 'Yoshino' had question marks on their faces.
Why would you accept a human seal? Wouldn't you feel uneasy if the power that could protect you suddenly disappeared?
Can a human boy really protect Yoshino?
What is your future self thinking about?
some type of.
“This is the ‘fact’, and therefore, ‘I’ was born.”
Raising his head and looking at the increasingly gloomy sky, Wanyuri said calmly.
"That's right. Accepting the seal to express gratitude because someone saved Yoshino's life really seems like something Yoshino would do."
He waved his hand helplessly, but everyone could hear the doting in his tone.
It's not that I don't believe it, after all, the wavelength of spiritual power cannot be faked, and there's no point in trying to deceive her with this kind of thing, right?
Just like that, an atmosphere of silence began to envelope the two of them.
"..."
——Tick tock.
"Ah, it's raining."
Feeling the coldness dripping on the palm of his hand, Wanyuri murmured softly.
Immediately, the blond girl released her spiritual power to cover up the rain. She didn't want to get wet all over.
At this moment, Yoshino suddenly stood up from the bench.
The rainy day seemed to improve her mood a lot.
"Okay, once you find a way, Yoshino can establish a spiritual circuit with you."
"Oh my! After all, you were born because of us, but it's okay to this extent, don't you think so ~ little sister Wan Yuri~"
The hand puppet shakes its body, showing the attitude of 'we will be responsible'.
Did she know that Wanyuri was born shorter than her, so she revealed her sinister nature?
"interesting……"
Resisting the urge to grab that 'broken hand puppet' and ravage it, Wanyuri laughed dryly.
However, this result is not bad...
Seeing Yoshino jumping happily into the rain, Wanyuri's expression softened.
A simple and kind girl like her should be carefree.
Instead of living under fire and panic.
…
A certain idea grew involuntarily in my mind.
In order not to hurt others, he created a personality that could help him suppress his power. Now, Wanyuri must be qualified to save such a gentle girl.
No, it's not just her.
And them.
After completing the spiritual link with the elves, can she really return without worries?
It definitely can’t be done…
…
Walking to Yoshino who accidentally slipped and fell to the ground, Wanyuri carefully helped her up.
Just like a caring big brother...big sister...
"Oh, I'm really troubling you. Yoshino is such a reckless child. It's great to have someone who can communicate with hands instead of weapons."
He folded his hands across his chest and said words of thanks using a hand puppet with an adult tone, while also not forgetting to ridicule certain people.
"Speaking of which, Wan Yuri-san, what are your plans in the future? Are you going to continue looking for elves like us?"
In order to cover up Yoshino's shyness, the hand puppet continued to look for topics.
"...Yes, this is indeed what I want to do."
Tilt his head, Wanyuri used spiritual power to disperse the stains on the blue-haired girl's body.
"But before that, I seem to have found something more important."
"...Oh?"
The rain gradually became lighter.
Wanyuri's words made Yoshino open his eyes wide, and the sound of dripping rain seemed to disappear in this space.
That is really a very beautiful wish.
Not only for herself.
——Want to find a place for the elves to stay.
No need to be sad, no need to be afraid, no need to be feared by others, and no need to worry about hurting others.
You can live freely in this world without sealing your spiritual power.
"The scenery you see like this will definitely be beautiful."
As he said this, there was a smile on his face that Yoshino had never seen before.
The emotions contained in it touched her deeply.
Then, the rain stopped.
The gentle sunshine penetrated the clouds and fell on the two of them.
The reflections in the pond sparkle.
"The rain has stopped...I'm sorry, I seem to be a little too arrogant."
He shook his head with some laughter. He obviously couldn't guarantee his own future yet, yet he dared to say such beautiful words so brazenly.
"..."
"...There is no such thing...!"
"——!"
Unexpectedly, the hand puppet remained silent. This time, it was Yoshino who expressed his opinion.
"...I also...believe...it will...be a very beautiful scenery...!"
"so--!"
——Please let me work hard together.
Shaking his body desperately, Wan Yuri read this meaning from the other party's serious eyes.
"Really, you too..."
This feeling must be deeper for Yoshino than Manyuri, who has just become an elf.
"Then, it's an appointment."
Kneel down on one knee again, just like when they first met.
Wanyuri stretched out his little finger. I believe this is applicable no matter which world he is in.
"……!Um!"
The desire to realize that expectation and the beautiful heart are close together.
Even if we only knew each other for less than a day.
A rainbow-colored light began to glow on the two of them, and somewhere invisible, their spiritual powers began to flow into each other.
"——!"
That is the 'miracle' awakened by intertwined dreams.
The spiritual circuit, the link is completed.
It's just a matter of a moment.
As expected, Wanyuri's spiritual power has been partially replenished, and Yoshino's spiritual power has also stabilized. As long as it is not actively induced, there is no longer the danger of causing a [space shock].
Feeling the full strength and the fading impurities in their bodies, the two looked at each other and smiled.
The scenery they want to see in the future may not be too far away from them.
…
"Oh——! I'm really sorry to bother you when you're so moved!"
The hand puppet, which had been silent all this time, suddenly made a sharp sound.
"Well, Sister Wan Yuri, we are all girls, so there is no need for you to give us benefits like this."
"It was the same time before. To be honest, although the 'Knight Kneeling' action does look very handsome, it is really not suitable for girls wearing skirts——"
"I've seen all the white ones~"
…
…………
………………
"……puff."
The blue-haired girl turned away and laughed, which was the last straw that broke the camel's back...
"——Alas!!!!"
In an instant, someone kneeled down on the ground with his skirt covered, and his face turned rosy at a speed visible to the naked eye. He whined.
