431-Quiet, Lilywood, Yggdrasil-To you, ordinary and special-






 When I first met you, you were nothing special. I could see that you were a kind-hearted person. I recognized you as a strong person with a strong heart. But still, I can say that you could be described by the word ordinary.


 --You were ordinary.

 --You were small.

 --You were little.

 --You were nothing special. But.....






 The first time I heard about the existence of the human named Miyama Kite was from the mouth of Isis, who I consider as my precious family and sister.
 To be honest, no matter how much it was a family member's words, I couldn't believe in Kite's existence. There was no way a being without strong power could resist Isis' death magic. There was no way I could take her hand, I thought.

 However, your name also came out of the mouth of Crom Eina, who thinks of you like a mother. What was the feeling at that time? It was a mixture of anxiety and anticipation, as if an inscrutable being had appeared.

 My first encounter with a human named Miyama Kite was in the forest of the spirit race in the human world.
 I am the oldest spirit in the world, and all the spirits in existence are also my family members. In my eyes, the existence of a human named Kite..............................was so 'ordinary' in my eyes.

  A very ordinary person.
 It seemed that I could use a rare magic called sensory magic, but the same thing is possible for me, and it's not like I'm particularly uniquely powerful.
 Although I was blessed by Shalovanal-sama and naturally loved by her, but.......even so, Kite-san herself still fit into the category of being a mere human being.

 By no means am I making fun of Kite-san. Rather, the impression I got from talking to her was very good.
 I could tell that she had a kind disposition, and I also liked the fact that she cared about nature. However, I still didn't think that she was the kind of person that Isis and Chromium Eina would consider special.

 However, you easily surpassed my imagination.

 Megiddo, who is unmanned, took a liking to you, Magnawell took an interest in you, and even Chartier............perceived you as a special being.
 You were indeed ordinary...yet you were unafraid to challenge the extraordinary.

 And you paid off the darkness of Crom'eina. What I and the other six kings couldn't do, you accomplished too easily.
 It was purely amazing, I thought.

 ........That's right. At that time, I must have started to think of you as a special person.

 Is it the air that you wear? If the magic of Isis' death draws others away, the air you wear attracts others. Truly, you are a mysterious person.
 You are not afraid of me, the Sixth King, and you treat me, the spirit of the World Tree, the tree, like a human being.

 There are two main emotions that are usually directed at me by people other than my family. Spirituals, fairies, elves, plants, and those who are connected to nature honor and worship me as a god.
 Others treat me with awe and respect as one of the Six Kings.

 But your feelings towards me have been neither of those. It was pure filial love - the kind of warmth you would feel for someone standing next to you.
 It's not that I am averse to it. It's more of a pleasure.......but yes, it is. I still can't get used to it.

 You are not my family. You are not my family. We are of different races and ages. You are supposed to be very far away from me.
 But it's strange. When I talk with you, I feel as if you are next to me, and it's very natural to do so.
 I'm sure that this gentle air is what makes you special, which I can only understand when I'm next to you.

 When I talk to you, I feel like it's natural that I'm not the king of the world, but Lillywood Yggdrasil, your equal.
 What is it? This feeling ... it's ticklish and very comforting. It's not the same as the feeling of being with your family or talking to your friends...unfortunately, I can't find the words to describe it well.

 But that doesn't mean I'm in a hurry.
 I'm kind of looking forward to what's to come.

 Huh? It's really strange. When is the last time you feel like you can look forward to a changing future? When you live long enough, you become more conservative about change....

 Maybe you're backing out without me even realizing it. To a future where I can smile more than I do now... So, are you special enough to make a difference to others?
 ...No, that's something you don't have to think about.

  At least for now.........
 I'll just go back to my childhood once in a while and enjoy the time I spend with you, without thinking about anything else.

  It's just a matter of time before you'll be able to find the right one.


 --You were an ordinary person. You were ordinary, but you stood in an extraordinary place with both feet.

 --You were small, but you did great things. You were little, but you did great things.

 --You were little. But you changed what hadn't changed in years.

 --You were ordinary, nothing special.

 --But you didn't stop there.

 --But because you don't stop there.....

 --I love you for being ordinary and special.

 --Please continue to be a wonderful you.
