Unnamed Most Powerful Mage

"I'm..."

On the way.

Words jam along the way.

Words clog my throat...

"I..."

I can't get my thoughts together about what I want to say.

What were you trying to talk about?

What do you want to do?

I don't see that.

"I can't, because I don't have to tell you. 'Cause you've been working patiently in front of your sister the whole time..."

"It's..."

"The truth is, I was going to say it a long time ago. But, you know, when I looked into Yuma's eyes, I thought I'd definitely regret not hearing the words. Because now Yuma is just like me back in the day. Acting for someone, holding yourself down unconsciously, suffering and suffering, hurting yourself without being able to speak even if you think it hurts, seeing someone - seeing them all as enemies, and still crying in your heart that you want to believe."

"I don't..."

I turn away from the lineras.

I don't know what I look like right now.

I don't know what look to look at the lineras.

I just couldn't get the words out of my mouth that followed "That's... [None]".

"You don't have to be strong like that, 'cause there's no such thing as Yuma saying someone that bad"

……

I will return the words of Linellas silently.

I don't understand her words.

I don't understand anything you're saying.

I betrayed him...

"I'm sorry about the guy who betrayed me... I, I..."

"No more than that, I really brought you here because I want to save you, right? You didn't say anything about Inon to anyone to make Inon acceptable to us, did you? You put it all inside yourself..."

"Lineras......"

Spin her name as a word.

Then, Linellas talks to me as I stroke my head.

"I have no power whatsoever. I can't even want to help Yuma. You're an Alliance Master, but you really can't. Guildmaster disqualified, right...... You're hurting someone you like, but you got help, and I can't do anything for you. It's so painful and sad and hard."

"That's not true. We're all here because we have lineras, right?

"It's not. I don't think so. Because Yuma will be there as the big black pillar, so we can all live in peace, right?

"We were sweet enough to let Yuma carry it all. Did your sister tell you that? Even in the village of Alai, Yuma's been acting for your sister, hasn't she? You call yourself the Demon King for your sister, don't you?

"That's... because he's my oldest son..."

"- Yes... right..."

To my answer, Linellas softly puts her hand over my head, agreeing with a gentle voice.

That's what makes me feel comfortable somewhere.

"- You're tired, aren't you?

……

"A lot of people only see the outside of the yuma, but I see the inside of the yuma in my heart. So you hurt a lot knowing Inon betrayed you, didn't you? Because Yuma really cares about her people. That's why you suffered betrayal, isn't it? So..."

Once, Linellas separated the words and said in my ear, "Good luck and you're great."

Words that stuck up to my throat went through my mouth to say you were good at your best -.

"It was tough... good luck - but I always talk to the bad guys... so I... stop taking it seriously... No matter how strong magic you can use, no matter how much knowledge you have, you can't protect Linellas without thinking, and you can't be careful about Inon... and your sister can't be happy satisfied, and you can't do anything for Lilina or Emerada... is that it? Me... what are you saying..."

I don't know what I'm talking about myself.

A lot of thoughts rush around the back of my brain to put it into good words......

"When it's hard, you can cry, okay? Yuma is what I've worked so hard for."

Linellas talks as she strokes my head.

If you notice, tears come out of your eyes...

For the first time in my life, I...

"I can't protect you from Yuma with this, but the only reason Yuma gives a hard look is because it's so painful for me to see such Yuma too... I'm sure if you abandon Inon here, Yuma will definitely regret it, so you can talk to me, because this is all I can do -"
