Chapter 90
Girl, learn about the boy’s worries.
After a birthday celebration we headed south again. We move on as we discuss where to relocate our base.
Gaius looks like he still thought of something. Mr. O’Shashio said I could leave him alone, but can I really leave him alone? I wish it was me who knew more about Gaius. If I knew about Gaius, could I also do something about Gaius looking like that?
Though I think so, as everyone doesn’t know exactly my mind, I and Gaius are different people, so we don’t know exactly everything. When I was in the village where I was born and raised, I never even thought about this.
I was just not dead, I just lived without much thought.
I never had much conversation and never opened my mouth. There was no desire to know about anyone, no desire to do something on my own.
But I met a family called Griffons and Seafo, and I met everyone I loved, and I learned a lot about them. Sometimes I don’t know if I don’t talk to you, which is what I found out when I met everyone.
The timing for Gaius to talk was then done a few days later.
It was night.
If you look up into the sky, the stars are shining. The night sky is so beautiful.
Looking up at the starry sky calms me down. Yeah, it’s not just the starry sky. I can kind of calm down when I’m touching nature.
Gaius and I had this night when we took our vows. With that in mind, I wanted to walk.
“Ah…”
I was walking, and Gaius was there.
I saw Gaius. Gaius is looking at me, too.
“Lernda”
“Gaius……”
I stare at Gaius.
Gaius, talk.
When I said that, Gaius nodded at me. So we sat side by side.
“Gaius…”
I want to know what Gaius is thinking. But I couldn’t keep the word going because I thought I’d be forced to talk to you.
Gaius laughed a little when he looked at me.
“Lernda, you care what I’m thinking, don’t you?
Gaius knew what I wanted to hear. Gaius tells me.
“Lernda…, even when that demon was exorcised, it was amazing”
Gaius speaks of me. It was amazing, I don’t know, but I was just desperate.
“… help us all. Besides, I have a contract with the Griffons and Skyforce, and this time with the Spirit…”
“… yeah”
What does Gaius have to do with me being troubled? I don’t know. I listen to Gaius because I don’t know. Because if you don’t ask, you don’t even know what Gaius is thinking. I want to know about Gaius.
“Lernda is…, well, it could be a godson, and it’s amazing…”
“Awesome, not”
“No, you’re amazing. It’s good for everyone. But I ‘m– that’s how you say you want to create a place where everyone can feel safe, but you can’t do it at all.”
I don’t know what Gaius is talking about.
Gaius can’t do it? That’s not true. Gaius is amazing. Gaius was sweet, he helped me out, awesome. I think Gaius is amazing.
“- I just have my mouth, and I’m not acting like Lernda. Not at all, powerless. I couldn’t do anything when the demons were gone.”
“… that’s not true. Gaius, wow. I know. Gaius, always kind. Thanks to me, Gaius, a lot of help. Besides, I couldn’t think of a place to feel safe. Gaius, come to think of it, we, talked. That’s why everyone said it was good.”
Gaius is always nice. I am saved thanks to Gaius. Besides, it all started because Gaius had that wish. Maybe if Gaius hadn’t mentioned it, that kind of wish wouldn’t have been everyone’s goal. At least, I didn’t think of that.
Gaius told me that I wanted to make that wish come true because I thought it was nice.
“I, Gaius, owe this much to me, and I’m starting to move forward. Gaius, no, not like that. Gaius, wow!
I don’t care how many times Gaius himself can’t do it, I think Gaius is amazing. Gaius is amazing. I’ve told Gaius many times.
“- Really?
“Yeah, Gaius, awesome!
“… thanks, but I want to be of more use to everyone. I want to be stronger than just my mouth. I want to be able to protect everyone.”
“Yeah, well, let’s stick together”
“Oh.”
“Me, Gaius, pray to be strong”
“Ha, thanks, Lernda”
Gaius, you laughed at me. I hope it clears my mind a little. Let’s hope Gaius gets stronger. Let me pray, as Gaius laughs.
And together, that’s what I think we should do.
The next day, one unexpected change happened.
– Girl, learn about the boy’s worries.
(Maybe the divine girl learns about the worries of the Beastman boy. the boy felt powerless that he had been able to do nothing)
