Miss Gudazi, who almost became a walker, is saving humanity

Although it wasn't Nemo Triton here anymore, Nemo ■■ was still Nemo.

The struggle of the young captain is not meaningless, and the possibility is indeed carried on.

■【Ark·Nautilus】·On the way back to the dormitory

After all, it was just a simple small banquet to adjust the mood, so the banquet ended soon.

On the way back to the dormitory with Matthew, Lixiang thought about the content of the conversation with everyone at the banquet.

She couldn't help smiling.

There is no intention of giving up at all, there are so many people who intend to save the Sunflower Girl who has given up on herself.Lixiang felt that this was something to be happy about, so she laughed.

"A created existence...?"

Matthew, who was walking aside, said to herself, and Lixiang turned her head to look at her subconsciously: "What's wrong? Little eggplant, you seem to be in a bad mood?"

"...I don't know why, I always feel that I have some...resonance with that Miss Van Gogh who I haven't met? And there is—"

[Wow ah ah ah!Lixiang! ! ]

"—I don't know why I'm a little unhappy about the fact that Miss Van Gogh can talk to seniors every night."

Because of Roman's sudden yelling, Lixiang didn't hear the second half of Matthew's words clearly.Although she wanted Matthew to say it again, Matthew was also attracted by Roman who suddenly called out.So, she had no choice but to look at the personal terminal on her wrist with dead fish eyes.

"What's the matter, Roman."

[That... well, I was surprised by what I suddenly noticed just now, that's it! ]

Li Xiang sighed.

"I always feel that sooner or later, Roman, you will become the commander of [It's actually Gungnir?!]... What am I talking about? There is no "Battle Girl" in this world. So, what made Roman you Are you so surprised?"

Roman on the Chaldean side breathed a sigh of relief.

Although it was just a nonsense reason, there were indeed things that made Roman care.

[The leader Jacques de Molay, according to her magical reaction trajectory, she seems to have been following you. ]

The traverser girl sighed again.

She actually asked Jacques de Molay by the way before, asking why she wanted to solve the problem of giant flowers.

Jacques de Molay pushed up his glasses and said he did it for his faith.Then, the way she looked at Lixiang seemed a little fanatical to the traverser girl for some reason.

...Why do the followers of the Christian department have a bit...too strong attitude towards themselves?

By the way, Tachika also asked Jacques de Molay about the bluntly outdated glasses on his face out of curiosity, and got such an answer.

"Although I'm not short-sighted or have any magic eyes, I won't take off my glasses, not even in the shower."

...What on earth do you want to do without taking off your glasses in the shower?

"Are you still following?"

[No, it has already stopped, it seems that it looks like it has returned to its own dormitory. ]

After all, he had already decided to be vigilant against Jacques de Molay, so Lixiang raised his vigilance against her by a few levels.But Lixiang also didn't feel hostility or anything like that, so for the time being, it seems that she can only be regarded as a pure Christian stalker.

"Since you stopped, what are you calling? Really."

Having said that, Lixiang has already arrived at the door of his dormitory.

"I'm going to take a rest, good night."

She said this to the personal terminal, then lowered her raised hand and looked at Mash.

"Then, goodbye, senior."

Saying so, Matthew was still a little depressed. After saying goodbye to Lixiang, she planned to walk into her own dormitory next to her.

"About this... Well, although I don't know why you seem to be in a bad mood, little eggplant, but I have something to ask you."

Matthew stopped and looked over.

Her mood seemed to be improving, which relieved Lixiang a little.

"Simply put—I'm not going to sleep tonight."

With that said, Lixiang took out a deck of cards from his pocket.This deck of cards was what she asked for from Nemo... Unexpectedly, it was not a poker card but a game card similar to Hopeful.

"That dream was [Attack]. According to Miss Sunflower, when the distance reaches this level, I am probably in the same space as that dream. No one can guarantee what the Outer God is going to do, so I can't sleep tonight .”

Fortunately, the life of the Holy Church keeps Lixiang energetic even if she does not sleep all night.

...but it's boring to spend an evening alone doing nothing.

In the past, Li Xiang usually used exercise to pass the time when encountering this kind of thing, but since the decisive battle is coming tomorrow, he can't just use up his energy, and here... the dormitory in the cabin is not a good place for exercise.

"The servant seems to be fine if he doesn't sleep? So you want to have a girls' meeting with me or something? Well, if you're sleepy, little eggplant, then—"

"No problem! Senior!"

Mash became emotional, and interrupted Lixiang's words with bright eyes.

"Mash, I'm very energetic now!!"

"Oh...oh." Li Xiang didn't know how to react for a while, and finally just nodded ordinaryly, "Well, let's play then. There are tea and coffee machines in the dormitory, what do you want to drink, Little Eggplant?"

By the way, Lixiang's original plan actually had the option of pulling Martha.

But Martha is drunk now... and the wine tastes surprisingly mediocre.

■Jacques de Molay (female)

"Sure enough, it's not that flower."

In his room, Jacques de Molay whispered to himself.

"[That] is not on the flower but on the fourth pillar of the Trinity. Is it a remnant of the obviously wrong Solomon? But... as expected of the Holy Son, it is really excellent as a sacrifice. As long as you find the island again, You can complete the task and get rid of this dead sheep, I really want to shout hello."

As far as consequentialism is concerned, Jacques de Molay has not said a single lie so far.

Although I didn't tell lies...but I didn't tell the truth either.She was indeed acting for her faith, but—she never said she still believed in that person.

What she believes in now is——

17. Run, before the flowers bloom

■? ? ? · "Van Gogh"

When Lixiang uttered the key word [huge flower], Van Gogh's lost, precisely "blocked" memory was gradually recalled by her.

Profound, distant.

The bottom of the abyss that even the dawn cannot reach, and no prayer can convey.

A sea of ​​imaginary numbers where nothing exists and everything exists.In order to eliminate all interference and make this attack a success, Outer God V directly summoned Van Gogh in that sea—alone.

As Van Gogh, she noticed her abnormality and wanted to tear herself apart in that sea.But since she was also Clytie, she couldn't do it properly.

As Clytie, she also had the idea of ​​"If this is the case, then draw it", but in the end she was Van Gogh after all, and Van Gogh would never draw that painting.

As a result, she could only float in that sea alone in the end.Can't die, can't paint, can't do anything, just like a broken water plant.

It was too lonely, so Van Gogh called.But her voice did not reach anyone, Outer God V prevented her from calling others in order to prevent accidents.

Can't die, can't paint, can't call.

In the end, she could only float alone in the sea of ​​imaginary numbers, repeating the endless self-injury that she wanted to die but couldn't die.

The sea of ​​imaginary numbers has no concept of distance, no concept of time.Self-injury on an infinite time scale, despair beyond the limit of mental endurance.Finally, let Van Gogh [blossom] as told in the fairy tale.

Her [shell] turned into a huge plant like a flower, and began to float up with the sea of ​​imaginary numbers, eroding the sea of ​​real numbers.Then, it became what it is now.

'I really deserved to die. '

After roughly recalling everything, Van Gogh thought so.

'If I could die, I wouldn't give anyone trouble. '

At this moment, Lixiang's last words in the dream flashed through the mind of Sunflower Girl.

"Why did you continue to fight after you were defeated? And why did you keep calling for help?"

Why is it?

Then she remembered.

It does exist.

After despair, he cried out for help because of this despair.

It is obviously impossible for any sound to be heard, and it is obvious that no one will hear it.But the cry for help was answered.

A servant with only one ride landed in the Sea of ​​Imaginary Numbers, fought a tragic battle that would make the onlookers unbearable to look at, and was defeated.

"Is that so... I had the impression that my call for help was answered, so I had the illusion that I could call for help. Moreover, the person I didn't know died... I also asked Tatsuka to be cruel, and sure enough. It's better for me to die quietly by myself...hehe."

At this moment, Van Gogh heard a very familiar but somewhat strange voice.

[Miss Sunflower!Can you hear me? ! ]

That was Lixiang's voice.The reason why it feels strange is because this is the first time she has heard this voice in reality.

■【Ark Nautilus】Canteen

As far as consequentialism is concerned, Martha now wants to find a time machine.

Her saintly drunkenness ended in the morning, but sadly she didn't lose her memory in accordance with international conventions.She remembered everything that happened when she was drunk last night.

Originally, the mentality of this spirit base was not normal, but after being drunk...

"In the end, what did I do... unexpectedly... actually!!"

The saint who subdued the dragon lay on the dining table and wailed.

She didn't want to say that she wished she didn't drink at all last night, or drank some.Anyway, no matter which side is definitely better than now.

"Oh, I found it, I found it."

Saying so, Lixiang, who was followed by Mash, came in from the cafeteria door.

"I heard from the rabbit in the maintenance room that the head of the eldest sister... Sister Martha, you haven't left the cafeteria all night, is there any problem?"

"Lixiang... Let's transfer the spirit son to last night."

"...Spirit transfer is not simply time travel, although I didn't actually listen to Roman's long explanation."

Lixiang sighed, ran to the kitchen at the back of the cafeteria, heated three cups of milk, and walked to the table where Martha was lying on her stomach.

"Speaking of [morning drink], I just want milk for a while...Anyway, do you want a drink?"

"……want."

"So, Miss Martha, why are you in such a low mood?"

Looking at Martha who was drinking milk slowly, Lixiang tilted her head and asked,

"Elder Sister, your wine taste is a bit average, but you didn't do anything unsightly last night? Right? Little Eggplant."

"Well, what the senior said is correct, the big sister didn't do anything out of the ordinary."

Mash nodded, and began to recount what Martha did last night according to her own memory.

"When I got drunk, I dragged me to worship my seniors; carnival with the animals that had a lot of fun; acted as Accord's siblings; and criticized the fact that the servant industry paid more and more attention to light cannons, and published [Compared to light cannons, empty hands Fighting is romance!]'s remarks—just doing these ordinary things."

If it weren't for the cup in her hand, Mirtha really wanted to submerge her face in the water.

Looking at Mash, who had a calm face, and could even be said to be dazed, repeating Michelle's actions after she was drunk last night, Li Xiang couldn't help blinking.

"...Your child is indeed a bit dark."

"Huh? Senior, did you say something?"

"Hmm... Are you grateful for the fact that you can discover a new side of your friends every day?"

The traveler girl coughed twice and looked at Martha with a smile.

"In short, in short... Big sister's head is just more unrestrained when she is drunk! If you want to say, isn't Little Eggplant's problem bigger? She was drunk when she drank only non-alcoholic cocktails, and she almost blew up the entire cafeteria Well. I really didn't expect that Little Eggplant has the strange physique of getting drunk if the name of the drink has alcohol in it."

This time it was Matthew's turn to bury her face on the table.

"It's not because of this kind of thing..."

Martha, who was lying on the table, muttered softly,
