Claire!
"Urus... wabu!?"
A female flagman hugging Craia as she stepped into the room, and Craia who was hugged by the flagman and interrupted the call.
And I was looking at it very close, and I was thinking, "Who? It was.
No, I know the woman who came is Ursula Utgarza.One of the Golden Generations had been told in advance, and from the words of the last Krei, there was no doubt that the opponent was Ursula.
Nevertheless, I was unable to recognize the opponent as Ursula because the Ursula in my memory and the Ursula in front of me (now) were too far apart.
The Ursula I know has blue eyes and honey-colored hair reminiscent of the lake water, and her skin is sunburned wheat with a prominent shaky face.I don't like the clothes of women who are difficult to move, and when I saw them, I felt like I was wearing only men's clothes.
He had a short back and a smaller head than Craig.Sometimes I used to call myself "me" or cut my hair as short as a boy, and I could only see it from a boy's perspective.
In contrast to Sydney Skyseep, who was often mistaken for a girl, it was a promise that the first person to see a golden generation would make a difference between Sydney and Ursula's gender.
That is Ursula, whom I know five years ago.
However, when it comes to Ursula today, she was taller first.The height that was once lower than that of Craia is now clearly surpassing that of Craia.
It's not just the back length that has changed.The short hair is stretched to the shoulders, the skin is white and smooth, and the sliced eyes combine sharpness as a swordsman and beauty as a woman.
There were no signs of bluffing on his straight face, his limbs were long and supple, and the blue forest flagman's haori suited him surprisingly well.The body that looks over the clothes also has a feminine roundness, and the hugged face of Craia is buried in Ursula's chest in the middle.No one will mistake a man for looking at Ursula now.
I mean, is he really Ursula, this guy?I'm almost alone.
I was seriously confused. Did you notice my gaze? Ursula's eyes turned towards me.
Suddenly, the eyes of the lake water color were opened as if they were surprised.
I wondered what surprised me, but before I could find out, Deirt Berch's faint voice dominated Ursula.
"No, Utgarza."
"... I'm sorry, flag general (today)"
Ursula walked away from Craia feeling reluctant, but it wasn't because of her mind that the sharp light seemed to have run in her eyes the moment she responded to Dialt's voice.
According to Craig, Ursula belongs to the first flag.Of course, Dialt, the first flag general (today), is a direct supervisor, but Ursula does not feel respectful or trustworthy.Rather, there are feelings that are the opposite of respect and trust.
--Somehow, I felt that Ursula knew about the circumstances that led to Craig leaving the island.Otherwise Ursula will not behave like this towards her superiors.
After thinking so much, I shrugged my neck inside.
To me, the choice of Ursula must have been very confusing.I don't think Dialt noticed what I noticed.What the hell are you thinking?
I listened silently to Deart, but naturally or not, the flag general (today) 's mouth never told me the truth.Only clear decisions were spoken of.
"Ursula Utgarza, the 10th flagman, knows the inside of the Onimon Gate.As I told you earlier, I want you to accompany this man. "
I can't read any emotions from Dialt's face.The noble expression that does not allow this insight reminds me of my father's ceremony.
Whatever questions you may have about this face, it will just come back to the skin of a hard surface like iron.I just nodded that I understood and said nothing more.
When he saw it, Dialt turned his gaze to Ursula and asked briefly.
Utgarza is good too.
"Yes, sir."
"Very well. That's all, but Gilmore, the head of Berch's family, has told us that he will offer you this place to stay while you are on the island.This distance should be used freely.If there's anything missing, let the family have it. "
When Dialt finished, rather than giving us a glance, he quietly stood up and left the room.
While listening to the footsteps moving away, I thought.
After all, Dialt never spoke to his sister.
After that, the three of us, Claire and Ursula, who remained in the room, looked at each other silently.
I kept my mouth shut because I thought it would be futile to talk to friends about reunion, but it seems that Clyde hesitated to talk to me in Craia.Speaking of which, Ursula looked at us and seemed to be wondering what to say.
It is unlikely that the story will go on forever if it stays the same.I couldn't help but stand in a fortress of silence with the three of us, so I looked down with my cheeks poked.
"Five, no, it's been five and a half years.Long time no see, Ursula. "
Ursula nodded somehow relieved to hear this greeting.
"Long time no see, sky. So, sorry to interrupt, but can you tell me a story?I've heard the approximation from the flag general (today), and I'm guessing to myself, but I want to hear it from the mouth of the party. "
The words that came out of Ursula's mouth were a little rough for an old woman, but for me it had the effect of eliminating the discomfort that persisted from the beginning.
Yeah, this is it. This is it. This was the tone of Ursula five years ago.
Looking at me, Ursula raised her eyebrows in suspicion.
"What's wrong?"
"No, your appearance was completely different.I was really confused that this person was Ursula, and I finally found out what he looked like five years ago. "
To be honest, Ursula blinked her eyes as if she had heard something unexpected.
Slightly, the cherry blossom-colored lips make a bitter smile.
"It's only natural that after five years, one of the appearances will change.And if you've changed, you've changed a lot, haven't you?I was surprised when I saw you next to Claire. "
"Um, yeah? Well, I'm conscious of the fact that my face is getting worse."
As she slapped her face, Ursula shook "No" or something.
"It didn't look like a person, it looked very alive.Five years ago, you always looked down and walked. [M]I think Ayaka would be happy to see you now. "
Craia was the first to react to Ursula's story when she was naked in her teeth, listening to our conversation in silence.
"U, Ursula, that's...!"
In a hurry, Craig and I alternate between Ursula and me as if we were in a hurry.He thought I'd be in a bad mood because he brought up his old bride.
Thinking about it, Craia has never spoken Ayaka's name until today.Maybe Claire was watching out for me.
Honestly, it's worthless.I won't be disturbed by hearing Ayaka's name now.
However, I was sure it wasn't a pleasant topic to hear, so I decided to go ahead with the conversation.
"What's changed is each other.So, what happened this time? "
So he stopped his words and looked around.Dialt said he was free to use this distance, but of course he's not going to take it.
As I mentioned, there is a risk of being eavesdropped, and there is a risk that the people who listened to my visit will come.
I took permission from the Dagger under the condition that Ursula be accompanied.You should go through the Wisp Gate at once.
"What are we talking about here? Let's go to the Wizard Gate."
Ursula and Craia nodded at the same time.
