"Pegasus, stop keeping me in suspense and just tell me what's going on."

Yurielle said this very bluntly.

"My sister and I really want to know."

"..."

【The truth will eventually come out.】

[You know that what you and Demeter mentioned will be told to the three sisters sooner or later.]

[You prepared yourself mentally, and then told the two of them everything you had just learned from Demeter.]

【This is an extremely shocking fact. 】

[Even the two sisters, who came from unique backgrounds, were extremely surprised by this. ]

【you--】

[It is an existence from outside the heavens. ]

"You are kidding, Pegasus."

Stheno looked at the man in front of him, and his voice began to tremble.

"You... actually have such a connection with Athena?"

"I just can't believe this any more than you can."

Ian was very honest about how he felt at the moment.

"At the same time, I'm not sure whether what Demeter said is true or false."

"But if what she said is true, all hope seems to be on me."

It was not out of affection for my compatriots, but simply because I realized that I had shouldered such hopes.

after all--

If everything Demeter said was true, then He came to this ocean largely because He (or rather, His mecha compatriots) still had the possibility of returning to the universe.

This was a gambling search, and Demeter had risked everything.

"..."

Yurielle was silent for a long time, and finally, as if facing reality, she told Ian about her doubts.

"so--"

"Have you decided to leave Medusa just like that?"

"The two of us may not mean anything to you...but she should be different to you, right?"

"If she knew you left with Demeter, she would probably collapse on the spot."

"..."

It’s a cruel description, but it’s also the reality at this moment.

If Medusa, who had just made a lifelong commitment with him, knew about this situation, she might not be able to accept it so easily.

And with her personality, she might do something unbelievable.

"..."

"I don't know." Ian's vision gradually became blurred.

"so--"

"Stheno, Euryale."

"I want to know what you think."

"If you ask that..."

Yurielle supported herself with her hands on her hips and expressed her thoughts.

"Then I certainly hope that you can completely ignore Demeter's request-"

"We haven't even solved the Medusa problem yet, it's a bit absurd to think about getting involved in this kind of thing."

"Furthermore..."

Euryale looked up at the sky.

It was a clear night, and the full moon hung in the dark curtain like a transparent mirror.

"What does the war in the sky have to do with us who live on the ground?"

"..."

At first glance, Euryale's words seemed a little selfish.

But if you think about it carefully, you will find that it makes sense.

That's right.

Perhaps Ian has some inevitable connection with the fleet coming from afar.

But since the man has lived with the three sisters for so long, his fellow countrymen in the high heavens don’t really have any profound meaning to him.

Even if we refuse to help them because of this, there is nothing wrong with that.

Besides——

Medusa also suffered such great condemnation because of Poseidon.

It is reasonable and logical that the man has the right to stay here even without giving any reason.

"really……"

The man listened to the unsurprising statement, looking as if he had already thought of all this.

"That--"

"I still have to refuse Demeter."

"If you guys don't agree, then Medusa will definitely not agree, right?"

As soon as Ian finished speaking, he heard Stheno's rejection.

"Do not."

"Pegasus, you can't do this."

"..."

【This is a rejection you never expected. 】

[After all, on normal days, Stheno and Euryale almost always agree with each other.]

[But this time, she resolutely showed a different idea from her sister and rejected your behavior. ]

[This can't help but make you a little concerned. ]

"Stheno, what you mean is..." Ian couldn't help but ask.

"Because this is a huge hidden danger for Medusa."

Stheno faced the man in front of him, his tone unusually tough.

"You can certainly stay with her now."

"but--"

"Do you think this kind of thing can be kept secret?"

"She will know the choice you made at this moment sooner or later."

"With her personality, if that time really comes, she will be even sadder than when you left. She might even feel that she can't face you again."

"And you don't have any remedy."

"Moreover——"

"Are you sure that after you reject Demeter, she will really give up without any concern?"

"What if she chooses to target Medusa because of you?"

"So—" Stheno's hands clenched into fists.

"I don't think it's a good choice for you to stay."

Although he is usually careless, Stheno knows his sisters quite well, especially the youngest one, Medusa.

She knew that he actually had a low self-esteem and was especially afraid of dragging down his two sisters.

If the man chose to stay because of Euryale's words, he would actually step into Medusa's minefield.

If the truth causes pain, then lies only make it worse.

Stheno would never allow this to happen.

Even though...she actually didn't want the man to leave like this.

Of course, Stheno did not say it directly.

She quickly added:

"Pegasus, this is still my guess after all. You should explain the matter to Medusa."

"Don't make the decision on your own. That would be too unfair to her."

"As Medusa's sister, I..."

Stheno hesitated to speak.

"Forget it, let's stop here. I'm going to rest now."

After saying this, Stheno turned around and silently walked away from the bow.

Ian looked at her back and felt the sadness of having a legitimate reason to do so.

Men are not slow.

When Stheno said those words just now, he could already feel the sobs between her words.

Didn't she wish she could just stay like this?

But everything cannot go as planned.

"..."

Of course, Euryale could not fail to see the feelings that Ian could sense.

And the girl knows her sister better than the man.

If it weren't for the concern that Medusa would be extremely sad after knowing the truth, who would be willing to let him leave like this?

No.

You have to comfort her.

My sister is actually not that strong.

At least... we have to leave something behind on this moonlit night.

Yurielle thought so, then she moved closer to the man's ear and whispered her wish.

"This……"

Ian looked at Yurielle who told all this with some surprise.

"Have you informed each other?"

"Of course, otherwise how do you think we always appear by your side at the right time?"

"Pegasus, to tell you the truth, Sister Stheno likes you just as much as Medusa does."

"You... won't let her down, will you?"

"But Yurielle, are you sure you really want to do this now?"

"Ah."

"……I see."

Before leaving, Stheno took one last look at the bow of the ship.
