I admired magic, but I was, like, demon-free.

The kids around me, little by little,

Sure, I learned the magic.

I wonder what I was missing.

It was embarrassing, but magic, what it's like.

I've asked.

"Naturally, it's there. It's there."

"I happened to be on fire."

"You'll be able to do it sometime."

I don't know.

I don't know why.

Nobody, I guess, understands.

Guys, it's all about me, I'm thinking.

Are you different?

Me?

I... I've been watching everyone...

Because I didn't know what to think...

When you play wizard,

I was always a role to be protected.

I can't use magic, so I'll protect you.

At that time, I didn't like the fact that I was on the protected side.

I said I wanted to be the one to protect you.

A child who can't use magic is weak.

Everyone was playing with their magic.

I've been watching it.

Hey, did I have to do something, hang in there?

I wonder if there wasn't enough effort than people......

So, on the side of being protected, I wonder if it has...

"... I envy you."

Huh?

"I protected a lot of things, too, but just like that, a lot, I broke them.... Maybe you were right. I kept protecting what I liked. I kept protecting it just for myself."

…………

"... I said I was jealous that someone who could help me (...) was (...), because I wasn't there (...)"

Really?

"Oh, yeah."

Did you protect him?

"Yeah......"

... That's terrible.

But you're wrong.

Huh?

"You saved me at the end of the day."

Um... me?

"Wow, I was so happy..."

I did what...

"You always said you couldn't protect, but I think you've been protecting a lot of things."

No, that can't be right.

Because I...

"Because you're weak? But there are people out there who can help and support you, right?

I can't do anything by myself...

"No, I'm not."

"Now you're protected, not because you're weak."

Huh?

"Because you always try (...) to help (...)"

…………

"You always think," I want to protect you. "

…………

So, guys, I'm trying to help you.

But to me, that's...

"Hey, if you have the power to protect, will you, with me, protect something?"

Huh?

"I didn't have company to fight with. Anyone who can help, until the end of the day."

Are you...

You're the only one who's wrong.

Are you... who?

"Oh, I've talked to you for a long time, but this, I'll tell you what."

Yes?

"You delivered flowers to her...

Do you owe me (...), even if I die (...), I'll give it back (...)? "
