　Auntie lives with her son, Oshasio. There were many people gathered at the house. This is a proof that she was adored in this place.

　I walked into the house and looked at my grandmother lying on her bed. Right next to Auntie are Zeshihi and Sireba. They both look gloomy.

　Auntie's face is pale. She was looking so healthy just a few days ago, but I began to wonder why.

"Lelunda, did you come too, ......?"

Yes,....... I'm not sure what to do with it, but I'm going to try it.　Then I'll use my sacred magic!　If you need medicine, I and Zeschich will make you a potion that will make you feel better!

　Why do you look so gloomy? I have a bad feeling. But I wanted to shake off this feeling, so I said the words.

Hey, Auntie, so--"

It's okay, Lelunda."

　Auntie said, in a voice without power.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　It was a word of resignation.

'...... Lelunda, that's not the kind of thing that made me fall down.'

　It was as if she had given up, but yet sadness was not evident in her voice.

It's ...... how you say it."

Lifespan ......?

Yes, a creature's life will be limited. I ...... have lived long enough to be a beastman, you know."

　Auntie said with a kindly look on her face.

　Lifespan...... grandfather, who was the only one who told my parents about me and my sister in the village where I was born and raised, also passed away due to his lifespan. Those who are alive will die someday. It is such an obvious thing. I knew that in my head. I knew it in my head. --But when I actually saw the reality of it, it was shocking. For me, it was a reality that I knew, but that I did not understand in my heart.

　My life span is coming to an end. At the end of our lifespan, there will be no one left alive.

　I was shocked as I spoke.

　Was she really ...... going to die?　I thought I was going to die. My heart was shaken so much that I felt as if I would cry right now.

　I look at Mr. Zesich. I wondered if there was any medicine that could cure what was wrong. But Mr. Zeschig shakes his head. He looks sad.

He said, "Lerunda ...... people die. One day, they will die. I've ...... lived a long enough life. I am satisfied with my life. So--you don't have to look like you're going to cry like that."

　People are going to die, Auntie laughs. She doesn't look sad at all. She looks satisfied and laughs.

But ...... I would--"

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

No, Lelunda. Even if you are a godchild, you can't ...... do anything about your lifespan, you can't do anything about a person's death."

　The existence of a Kamiko is special - but not absolute.

　Why can't my power do something about that? I know that Athos said that without me, the damage would have been much worse, but I still don't like the idea of someone else being gone.

　Still - even if I didn't want to, there are certain things that can't be helped. One of them is longevity.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

I'm happy. I'm happy that we're all here now, living in peace. I'm happy that everyone is here, that everyone is concerned about me. That alone makes me happy.
