625-Part 1 Final Chapter-Shallow Vanal-Time of beginning and end-






 Dear Mom and Dad - so much has happened since I got caught up in the heroic summoning and came to this world. I think I've had many, many more really fulfilling days than when I was in my original world.
 It's strange, though. Every day is so much more lively and noisy than before...............................and I'm really enjoying it. I never thought I'd be this happy.

 I came to a world I'd only heard about in stories, and in the midst of all the confusion, I met Kuro and... well, he saved me. Now, I feel like that was the beginning of my own story.
 I met a lot of people and came into contact with a lot of kindness. One by one, the bonds we have built up have turned into warm and wonderful days.

 In the human world, I traveled all over. I participated in the Treasure Festival, experienced gambling for the first time in my life in the Arklesia Empire, and had an unexpected reunion in the Kingdom of Hydra.
 He also visited the Demon World many times. He went to visit Isis-san's castle, went to the mountain range where Magnawell-san lived, and participated in an unheard of festival called the Six Kings Festival.
 Although I didn't travel all over the divine world, I did visit Shiro-san's home shrine and the upper levels where Fate and the other supreme gods reside many times.
 And yet again, there are still many things in this world that I don't know about, and a lot of scenery that I've never seen before. Really, the world is a big place.

 There have been many changes in my relationships with the people around me. The people I've met have been good people and I truly believe that I've been blessed with good fortune.
 After I lost my mom and dad, Kuro helped me out of my repressed state of mind, and he was always there to light up my heart with his bright smile.

 From the moment I met Isis, she has given me so much love and support, and now she is truly irreplaceable.
 Zeke, who is always kind and always willing to help me with anything and makes me feel calm when I'm with him.
 Lilia, who accepts me, even though I'm supposed to be a regular person, and has both a dependable and cute side to her.
 Alice, who is always noisy and well-behaved, but who is always there to help me first and foremost, who is my best friend and my adorable lover.
 Fate, who is both troublesome and self-defeating, but has a kindness and unexpected innocence that shows a sincere concern for the person she takes in her heart.

 Besides that, she has met and befriended so many other people. If you call it spinning a bond, then the bonds we've made with everyone are my greatest treasure.
 The first day I met Kuro, he said something like, "Let's go on a treasure hunt. If that's the case, then yes, I can proudly say that the treasure I've found is the most wonderful thing I've ever found.

 That's why I want to continue to live in this world from now on, that's what I thought. But in order to do so, there are things that cannot be left vague.
 I couldn't move to this world without saying goodbye to my relatives, my aunt and uncle, who took me in when I was young and brought me up with no problems.
 I didn't understand that at the time. Losing my mother and father was too much for me to worry about the people around me. But looking back on it now, I'm very grateful to my aunt and uncle.

 It's not easy to take in a child. My aunts and uncles made sure I went on to college, and I don't remember having any trouble getting there.
 Looking back, I've been blessed to have been a good person for a long time. I was surrounded by warm and friendly people that I had never seen before.

 I wonder why I didn't notice it before, why I didn't properly thank my aunt and uncle for their kindness, and that is my biggest regret.
 Of course, if you ask Eden-san or someone around him, the money they spent will be restored, and it may be possible to erase the memories and records of my existence. But I don't want to do that.

 If I can't explain myself and thank them properly for all their hard work, then I will finally be able to live as an inhabitant of this world with confidence.
 That's why I asked God for it. I'm still in a situation where I can't say it's come true at this point, and I have to get over the ordeal that will be given to me.
 But................I am already happy at the point where I am given the chance.

 I don't understand the depths of White's heart. I'm not going to be able to get a good idea of what's going on in the world.
 
 But I'm also wondering. Why did Shiloh-san ask me to play the game in the first place? Shiro-san's words that time at the hot spring in the divine realm.......Shiro-san doesn't lie, so it must be the truth. But that doesn't mean he "told the whole story" either.
 Since he describes it as a competition, Mr. White must have some goal in mind.
Something is tricky. I'm worried that I've overlooked something important in my mind. But I can't find an answer.

 No, maybe it's something that you have to find in the course of your battle with Shiro-san.








 Putting down my pen and closing my journal, I get up from the chair I was sitting in and gently turn my attention to my pocket watch. The long hand, the short hand, the second hand - all converging in one place, marking the end and beginning of the day.

 The 29th day of the heavenly month ends and the 30th day of the heavenly month begins quietly.

 At that moment, the landscape switched. The sky is full of stars and the flowers are in full bloom underfoot.... It was a fantastic and beautiful scene, and yet somehow lonely.
 When I saw that, the words I heard before came to my mind.

-- There is no night in the divine world. I can make it a night, though.

 Not the blue sky, but the starry sky ... the "Shrine of the Night" ... this is the place you chose, White-san.

"It was under the starry sky that you started your own story, wasn't it? I recreated the night sky of that day. There will never be a more fitting view for your battle with me.
I suppose so. Good evening, White.
Yes, good evening Mr. Kaito. It's my beloved Singularity. Now it's time for the beginning and the end.
