142 10. Good people, perfect aftercare




 Inside the barracks, me, Eliza, Mari and her sister, Lily.

 Once the four of us were inside the barracks, it began to feel smaller and smaller.

 Lilly is still sobbing.

She won't stop crying.
It's been a tough time for me.
I see.

 When I said that, Eliza readily agreed.
 I watched sobbing Lily and calming Mari for a while.

 Eventually .

I'm sorry. ......
Never mind. By the way, have you calmed down yet?
"Yes. Thank you so much. ......
"Yeah. I'm sorry to be so quick, but I have to explain something to you.
"Description?
"Yeah, actually--

 Just as I was about to begin my explanation, a fist-sized stone was thrown in from outside.

 Enough to kill me, it crashed through the rib house wall and rolled on the other side of the house, between me and Eliza.

My God!
I'm fine.

 Lilly was calm as Eliza got down on one knee and braced herself.

'Please wait a minute,'

 Lilly looked familiar and walked out of the barracks.
 Just as I was wondering what was going on, Eliza, curious about the situation, got up and followed Lily.

 When I followed her out, I saw Lily and a young thug-looking man facing each other.

 For some reason, the thug was staring at Lily with a puzzled look on his face.

"What's up, Lilly?
"No, ...... is the first time he's been like this and I don't know what ...... is.

 Apparently the reaction was a familiar one, but not one that Lily could understand.

 I waited a while.

"It's beautiful,
"Huh?
A pretty girl like you shouldn't be here. You know, there are monsters living here.

 A monster ......?

That's before you get better.

 Next to me, Eliza read my question and guessed.
 My guess was right, and Mari explained in a whisper.

He's always playing tricks on us. He calls his sister a monster, throws rocks and scribbles on the house".
I didn't know you were doing that.
It's funny if it is.

 The man-speak Eliza snickered as she did so.

 The person you've been calling a monster and shunning is right in front of you. ...... I see.

I'll protect you, just come with me.
That's okay.

 Lilly said, her face completely blank, "There are no more monsters.

"There are no more monsters,

 And then the tone of his voice changed.

"That's the voice!

 Amazing Thug Man. You noticed the tone of his voice.

"Can you take me away? That's fine. But I can't be responsible if something comes dripping out in the middle of the night.
"Hi! Ba, you monster!

 The man ran away like a rabbit, leaving behind screams and discarded words.

 Eliza's eyes were downcast at the sight of him.
 I could see it myself, too.

     .

 After Lily had repaired the wall that had been blasted through the rocks in a very skillful manner, we faced each other again.

 After the man's incident, interrupted by the daily routine of repairing the wall, Lily was visibly calmer and calmer.

"I'm sorry for making you look so weird,
"Don't worry about it, it's not your fault.
Thank you ...... um!

 Lily looked at me with a determined look in her eyes and cut me off.

"Let me return the favor!

 And then he said with a great deal of force.

Repayment?
"Yes!
"Don't worry about it, it's just a normal thing to do.
"Let me still! I'll do anything!
"Really--
"Do you really do everything?

 --I was just about to say, "Don't worry about it," when Eliza interrupted me from the side.

Yes!
So die. . or rather killed.


"Eliza!
"He needs it now.
"--Ha!

 Surprised I understood Eliza's intentions.

 I told that brothel today to do bad things (by God's standards).
 I couldn't do it in the house, and now I'm on my way home.

 I was completely oblivious to it, but Eliza remembered.

How are you doing? Will you die?
"Yes.
"Lilly!

 I was even more surprised than before.

 Eliza's "die" also surprised me, but there's a limit to how much of a surprise it can be, because it's a "demand" that's won by saying it.

 Lily's response to this "die" without a hint of hesitation was twice as surprising as the previous one, or even ten times as surprising.

Why?
"I've been in hell to this day . . because of this face.
"......
"It was hell.

 You said the same words twice.
 That was awful.

"You're a god to me for helping me do that. If God wants this life, I'm willing to give it to him.
"That's why. Do you take my word for it?
You're right, I'm angry.

 Eliza glared at him.
 She shrugged her shoulders and smiled with a huff.

 After silencing Eliza, she turns to Lily.

"That's all well and good, but your life--

 Just as I was about to say it, something strange happened.

 Lilly, who had been behaving normally, suddenly clenched her face and began to suffer.

Lisa!

 Mari worries.
 Lilly falls forward in agony.

 I'll hold her.

Don't! Follow (、、、、)
"It's okay.

 She tried to push me away, but I held on tightly so she couldn't get away.

 I couldn't explain it to her because of that guy's interruption. There was a good chance she was going to become desperate and desperate, so I held her tight so she wouldn't become desperate.

 She looked up.

Lisa!
"...... failure?

 Mari surprised, Eliza quizzical.

 Lily's face had returned to the melted face it had been before I fixed it.

 Part of that melted face fell into my arms as I held her with a plop.

Shut up! I'll get lucky, I'll get lucky!
"It's okay.

 You said the same lines. This time I tried to be gentler and said it to reassure her.

 If that was what it did, she didn't try to escape.
 Instead, despair showed on her face.

I knew it was a bad idea. ......
No, it's not.
"Huh?
"Will you calm down and listen to me? I was actually going to tell you earlier. It's better to explain it first, when it's normal, so people don't panic.
What's the deal?
I'm going to wait for you to come back and I can explain it to you.
"......

 As if she sensed something in my words, Lily's expression changed even more, her despair turned to calmness.

Are you okay?
"Yes.
Then I'll explain.

 I'll let her go and explain again that it's all right.

Your thing is like a cross between a disease and a curse. Irregular cycles, but continuous seizures? I'd get something like that and make my face look like that.
"Yes.

 Nodding Lilly.
 I think I understand that more than anyone else.

"I've taken the trouble to not let it go away for now.
How can I do that?

 Eliza asked cryptically.

"Look at her face. Have you noticed anything?
"Notice?



 Eliza, furrowing her brow, looks at Lily as I told her to.
 . and then stare for a moment.

"...... even prettier than before?
"Your answer
"Huh?

 This surprised Lily, who touched her face in a sticky way.

"It's an application of muscle power - and magic training. You'll have sore muscles after training, and they'll grow back after they're healed.
It wasn't just a cure.
We can always fix it.
Don't do it.

 The man language Eliza has been a powerful compliment.
