My Death Flags Show No Sign of Ending

I left the Knights and reunited with Sid for the first time in about five years. When I think about it, in order to save the three people including Sid, I changed the development described in the original for the first time by my own will.

They intervened in the Battle of the Bertis Forest, where they were supposed to die, and as a result Harold was fitted with a collar by Justus, and Cody no longer left the Knights, instead. Harold launched Frieri.

It was a watershed of fate, but one person who had an oversized death flag that could not be saved otherwise. Harold’s true feeling was that the reunion itself would be a pleasure but a bad premonition.

“Hi, it’s been a long time, Harold ……”

Because there was not only Sid but also Irene in this town. Is. It’s very rude, but Harold only seemed to suddenly have a dead flag that he thought was broken.

Harold was asked if he had time for Sid, who seemed to be quite awkward, after the affliction had subsided. I decided to meet Sid again.

And then, Irene, who was a former companion like him, appeared with Sid.

“I didn’t hear you were there”

“Uh … sorry”

That victorious personality was so wilted that there was no shadow to see. As with Sid, I’m worried that the two of them aren’t doing well.

It’s true that it wasn’t a good farewell, but Harold didn’t remember being atrophied so far. Somehow I’m out of tune.

“Isn’t that big?”

“Oh, oh … Robinson is now going to Travis.

These two are Burston, and the strong man Robinson is Travis. Both will soon be in a town flooded with hordes of monsters. The feeling of worsening became bigger and worse.

Harold continues the conversation without revealing it.

“In other words, you are the only ones here. Why are you here in the first place?”

“Knights” It’s a job as a group. I can’t tell you the details. “

” Well, it’s a little troublesome. ” The report I sent. If you were sent here in response, you would almost certainly be told that a horde of monsters are lurking in the basement of this town.

Sid and Irene don’t seem to be inexperienced enough to burp it. However, it would be difficult to take any measures.

“Well, what’s the story? Be prepared if you’re going to say something that doesn’t go down”

“No, that That’s what I mean … Do you want to apologize for a word … “

” Huh? “

However, Sid spits out completely unexpected words. Irene is silent next to her, probably for the same reason.

But from Harold’s point of view, I didn’t really know anything.

I still understand if you give me a hundred steps and thank you. Rather, it is a natural position to be asked why he betrayed at that time.

“What a joke?”

“Just, it’s not a joke!”

“If so, what are you going to apologize to the man who betrayed this country?” Harold should be such a human being.

If you’re in the Knights, you’ve probably heard a lot of rumors, and most of all, Harold was wearing an Imperial uniform at that time. I’m seeing you. Even though he had defeated the enemy general, it was made up as a reason why he tried to kill him after breaking up with his friends.

I couldn’t confirm it for some reason, and if the council made such a decision, it would be true for the world.

“… Harold, you are said to have betrayed the Knights, but I can’t believe it.”

” …… ”

” No … no. I wanted to believe you weren’t that kind of guy … but I couldn’t believe it “

Sid continues his words as if he confessed his sin.

It was natural that Harold couldn’t believe this, but rather the fact that he was trying to believe innocence was a surprise.

“It doesn’t matter to me, but why did you change your mind?”

“I heard from him. Harold digs up the memories of the past, saying that there was such a thing as a person who was attacked by a monster during a mission and was saved from a place that was about to be wiped out. “

It’s been a while since I became a Justus handpiece.

About ten knights were about to be wiped out, and although they intervened, only two were saved, and both of them were severely retired due to the aftereffects of their injuries. There was something. Either of them was Sid’s talk.

“He used to take care of me when I was a newcomer … I said he was seriously injured, so I went to see him. Give me “

Sid looks up and stares through Harold’s eyes.

“I said,’Harold Stokes saved my life.'”

Harold’s face and name Well, it’s not strange to know. And in fact, Harold moved to help them out of good faith.

But I think it’s still a weak reason to conclude that Harold isn’t a traitor. Anyone who happens to be able to believe in the presence of probability wouldn’t have suffered so much in the first place.

“Since I heard that story, I’ve become more and more confused about you …”

A betrayal guy I don’t want to think that. However, according to the sight he saw with his own eyes and the judgment of the Council, he was an unquestionable traitor. However, after leaving the Knights, the benefactor was saved.

It’s not hard to imagine that Sid’s emotional fluctuations would be messed up. But his story was still going on.

“Then, the days of worrying continued, and I went to see him again … Then I noticed. Maybe you got caught up in something. I don’t know … “

” What do you mean? “

” When I go to see you again, that person will help you. I had no memory when I was killed. I was supposed to have been taken to the hospital when I was fainted by being attacked by a monster. “

The memory was manipulated. If so, it’s probably Justus’s work. But I don’t know what that meant.

“It doesn’t go down. I guess I saw a hallucination that was on the verge of life.”

“No! That is It’s definitely not like that! “

” Why can you say so, even if you’re not a doctor? “

” That’s strange! It’s not just the memories that you helped me that I lost, I completely forgot even the existence of Harold Stokes !? “

If it’s not a cloudy memory, it’s a memory Also different from loss. A mysterious event that loses only the memory of a specific human being. It may have been swept away if it was a single entity.

However, the person who forgot was probably too pinpoint for Sid and others.

“Immediately after your decision was made, Captain Cody told me,’The criterion is not whether you can believe in Harold, but whether you can believe in yourself.'” But I couldn’t believe myself that I thought you were innocent …! “

” I’m the same. I knew he wasn’t the one, but … I still couldn’t keep up with my intentions. “

The two of us sarcastic about regret. I could clearly see the tears in my eyes even in the dimly lit bar.

Robinson, who isn’t here, probably feels guilty for not believing in Harold’s innocence as they did. I knew well even for a short time when I belonged to the Knights, but they are still very kind.

So Harold put out the words with the feeling that he didn’t care.

“If you think something … stupid or you guys”

“Huh !? ”

” That’s why I’m stupid. Where was the element you had to apologize for? “

“That’s right, of course I want to believe in you …”

“Suppose I’m innocent and you insist on it … So what’s going to change? What have you changed in that decision? “

Harold asks so, and Sid and Irene are silent.

Yes, the result was the same whether I believed in Harold or my feelings. The intentions and speculations that intervened there could not be helped even if the Knights all disagreed, and it was decided from the beginning that a capital punishment would be given.

“Let’s reveal the seeds. The capital punishment sentence at that time and what it covered was that it had been woven in from the beginning.”

” “Huh !?” “

Sid and Irene respond as desired.

This is, of course, a lie. In the first place, it is a series of unexpected situations from the battle in the forest of Bertis. But still–

“I’m alive. Can you guys, stupid, understand that it’s the best proof?”

Laugh to make the other person stupid. I’m used to it. So laugh.

I regret it for years, and apologize for it. To hide what is going to happen.

It’s not Harold Stokes who is grateful here. Harold as usual is the way to reward their kindness.

“Huh, but I’m pretty arrogant that we might have changed the situation by moving ourselves.”

“>” I don’t want to be told that you are arrogant !? “

” What is arrogance? arrogant 《 Go 》 It means to be proud. It’s not too much. “

” No, that way of thinking is ridiculously arrogant. “

So this is fine. There is no need for them to feel guilty.

Harold, who is irreverent, is alive and well, and insists that worry is meaningless.

“This pride! High-flying car!”

“Oh … our worries, regrets, emotions accumulated in this pool Where should I spit … “

” If this happens, I’ll drink Sid! And I’ll let Harold pay for everything! “

“Hey, do whatever you want …”

“Do you know! You’re an aristocrat, so pay that much!”

“… That’s right! Okay, let’s have a drink with Harold’s treat today!”

“… You guys are pretty ill-mannered people too. “

Well, it was easier for Harold to make noise like this if he still had a dark face. I want you to forgive me as much as I want you to live with a smile because I saved my life by turning my hands.

The timing of the reunion was disturbing, but I hope you can live peacefully without setting the death flag anymore …

“Oh, that’s Harold! Actually, we’ll get married when the current mission is over! Where should I send the invitation?”

“Although it was originally It’s a senior’s wedding, so be sure to come ~? “

” Don’t be silly shit “

It didn’t mean I didn’t want to be invited to a wedding.

If anything, it is a curse on the act of marriage itself.

(“I’m going to get married when this battle is over …” isn’t the most vicious death flag!)

“> Apparently the unpleasant premonition was right. In a sense, he is loved by Sid and Irene’s death flag, which is as good as Harold.

It was a moment when more work was mercilessly rushed into Harold, who was already overtime.
