161 2 ‐ 43 Louisiana Perspective

Louis, can't you open it?

"No, I'll open it.... but I honestly didn't think I'd be able to get this far." That's why I'm strangely nervous. "

It's okay.

Van seems to be worried about me. However, I feel safe when I look at the contract spirits with this firm attitude.

Oh, I'm fine because you're here.

No, that's not true. It's my first time in, so it means I'm okay. "

- What about you?

"You're nervous, too, aren't you?"

Of course. It's a place you wouldn't get into without this opportunity. No matter how many spirits, it makes me nervous. "

When you see someone who is more nervous than you, it's probably not wrong to expect the tension to dissipate.

The eagle, who always has a calm attitude, doesn't try to move away from my shoulder as if it were a sparrow. Naturally, your cheeks are loose in this adorable shape.

“What are you doing? Here we go."

You must have been worried about Van and me interacting behind my back. Theodor quickly pushed the door.

It opens slowly, making a dull sound. I stare, but I can't see anything in the dark.

Please come behind me. There are a lot of misconduct in this. If you get lost, you won't be able to come out. "

The boy turned around and pushed with a serious expression, instead of lighting the tip of his cane.

When I stepped out of the room, there was a refreshing air flowing through the room. Winds blowing from below will sweep through your skin.

"Will the stairs continue?"

The light of the cane in the boy's hand envelops the surroundings with a pale light. I finally got used to the darkness and looked around, and the cold breeze followed the unseen staircase ahead.

He follows the boy with his hand against the wall.

No one opened their mouths while the tricks and the sounds of shoes echoed. However, as I walked down the last flight of stairs, both Theodor and I could not help but loudly exclaimed in admiration at the scene that had spread.

"It's beautiful... but it's even more fantastic than that."

"Yeah, but I'm finally convinced I'm here." After all, the place where Rachel was is connected to this place. "

The scene of the space-time room decorated in the royal palace is undoubtedly a portrait of the world that spreads out in front of us. When the Dark Spirit King appeared and met Rachel on the Hourglass for a short time, she was taken to a similar place.

But when I met Rachel, I was obsessed and didn't have time to look around.

It was like being trapped in a starry sky, as if the concept of a room had collapsed all at once.

Theodor broke his eyes and laid his hand on the distant light. The figure was so beautiful that it infiltrated the world's unimaginable beauty.

In the same way, I extend my hand to the light. Then, among countless lights, we capture a giant light at a distance that radiates a different level of radiance than the others.

"That's..."

”There's the biggest light a little further, isn't there? That's the world you were in."

”That light... in my world... feels strange”

There was a great light ahead of the boy without hesitation.

As I approached, the light began to flash like a call to me. Despite the light you see for the first time, the warmth and nostalgia make your chest feel tingly hot.

It's easy to get back. Put your hand on this light. That way, you and the other you will synchronize and return to the right place with nature. ”

Is it that easy?

It's your world. Your paths are already connected to each other's world. ”

The boy nodded vigorously to inspire me.

"Go back quickly." Miss Rachel is waiting for you, too. "

"Oh, thank you, Theodore. Van..."

I'm always with them. I'll be available if you need anything.... it was fun talking to that person. ”

“We met in a short time, but it was nice talking to Van, too.”

Now slowly draw your hands closer to the light.

The moment my fingertips touched me, the light overflowed with vigor and enveloped me.

The warmth I felt earlier was even more directly echoing in my heart. All I can think of is Rachel, who trusts me to wait.

- Good. I can finally get back to you.

The chest roared with anticipation and relief.

At that moment, the first touch of your hand was too strong to call it static electricity, and the impact came as if you were struck by lightning.

"W-What was that!"

The momentum played from the tip of the touched hand along with the whirlwind inadvertently stuck a crust on the spot.

I can't understand what happened, and I look around vaguely. In the same way, Theodore and her gaze met in amazement.

"Louie?... what do you mean... I should have been able to get back?"

"... I've been bounced. What the hell is going on..."

When I woke up with the help of Theodore, I saw that the boy of the High Spirit was puzzled.

”Why, why? It's impossible to be played... Why...”

Everyone stood in a daze, unable to say anything, and a sharp voice resounded from behind me.

I was rejected.

Reflexively and vigorously look back. Then, the appearance of someone who wasn't expected to be there was unexpected.

No way, Spirit King!

Before his eyes stood the Spirit King of Light, who could not have been present.

--At some point... I didn't make a single noise, and I didn't even feel anything.

While scratching his cold sweat, he moved his gaze in an attempt to grasp the situation. Theodor's gaze overlapped. I can see the slightly impatient colour.

However, it seemed that the same was true of the boy in front of him, who was a high-ranking spirit.

Oh, King! You shouldn't be able to come back today!

In response to my words and the words of the High Spirit who was about to kneel down, the Spirit King controlled the act with his gaze alone.

"Alright, I'll teach you this much." It takes will to get back into each other's world. I'm willing to go back. "

Haha, I raised my face.

I'm sure this is the answer to my failure to return to the original world.

From the fear of facing the Spirit King and not being able to return to the original world, my heart has been making loud noises since before. Even tinnitus sounds like a warning tone.

But don't turn your eyes away from the Spirit King. If you turn away now, you will not listen to the Spirit King's counsel. I have such a feeling.

"... if you will, you have enough."

Isn't that right?

"No one but me...!"

As soon as I noticed it, my heart twitched.

In this case, only two people need the will. Of course I'm the only one. And there's another person who needs to be willing to go back to the world.

Yes, it seems that the other one has no desire to return to the original world.

"In that case... what the hell..."

There's nothing wrong with that. Even if that person and the other person are not replaced, the world's equilibrium will not be disrupted. "

The Spirit King told me indifferently. From the tone of his voice, he feels no joy, no pleasure, no impatience, nothing. I just stated the facts as a matter of course.

I don't know if you know that fact, it's like I'm going to hell in an instant.

"... oh, it would be a lie. So... can't I go home?"

The Spirit King silenced me to express his affirmation.

The golden eyes quietly looked at us like they could see everything.
