Captive
"Please don't move, I don't want to make the worst choice if possible."
With that said, Serufi manipulates the light on the wall and a ball of light falls from the ceiling.
One for all of us
It is fixed at the back of the head
"If you do something careless, that sphere of light will explode and 0.004 seconds later, 3000 degree plasma will be generated."
If that's true, Wince and I won't be able to move.
I guess Serufi understands that.
"If it's Shiro-san and Wince-san, it will be easy to deal with. But what about the others?"
Shirufi wasn't the only one with a gun pointed at the side of its head.
Even Sedona and the knights were taken hostage.
"You two can't move, right? Your strength lies in the fact that you never want to lose your companions."
"I'll kill you the moment you kill that companion, you know?"
"That would be a problem. So when we kill them, we will kill them one by one, so don't worry."
That seems to be sarcastic.
"Serufi-kun, is it about time?"
In such a hostile atmosphere, a man interrupted our conversation.
An old man with deep wrinkles on his face
However, you can also feel a youthful youthfulness in his hair, skin, and eyes.
He was a man whose presence was somehow unstable.
"Excuse me. I would like to introduce you to Montmorency-sama, the governor of Tuega."
"Hello, Governor-san. As a representative of the Empire, I would like to discuss reconciliation, peace, and coexistence. Is that okay?"
"You have a lot of courage in this situation. Are you looking down on me because you can't die?"
The governor looks clearly displeased.
But even here
"If you can do it, try it. Do you want to kill my daughter and my men? Now? Here?"
"I don’t like it, but I can’t."
"I guess so. So?"
"...Please kindly escort him to the prison."
―――――――
The prison I was taken to was quite comfortable.
"The air conditioning is working, isn't it? The bed is clean."
It's really hard though
And I'm the only one in that prison
"Wince and the others are safe, right? Serufi."
"Of course. I'd be scared if something happened."
"Yeah, if you do something to them, I’ll melt this tower down, you know?"
Serufi is standing across the iron grate
"That's scary. Don't worry, the others are all in the same room together."
"With the light balls set up?"
"Of course."
By the time I was put in jail, the ball of light in the back of my head had disappeared.
Now I can't investigate to disable that light ball.
Since I don't know where Wince and the others are being held captive, I can't just carelessly open up a hole with Vouivre.
"Have you been aiming for this since we met?"
"No, it was a complete coincidence that we met."
"Then what led you to betray us?"
"The fishy smell that's spreading in your world."
This guy, Serufi, always hated the smell of living things.
Smell of plants
Smell of animals
Smell of the sea
Smell of the air on the continent
"I can't stand that rotten smell."
"Can you only live in such a perfectly organized atmosphere?"
"That's true, but to me, it seems abnormal to praise the imperfect smell of nature."
"So you betrayed us, huh?"
"Yes, there are many souvenirs. Shiro-san is one of them."
"…Is it because I'm immortal?"
"The Governor is overjoyed to learn of your existence. I think Shiro-san has also noticed the unstable situation of the Governor?"
"So, you're saying he has a short life ahead of him."
"Yeah, he had 800 transition surgeries. It seems like that's already the limit."
"What was the promise when you followed him?"
"It's a memory."
"Memory?"
"Yes, I failed the transition surgery and have no memory of my past. So I will be given the right to take the transition surgery again."
Serufi said with the happiest expression ever
"My pre-surgery brain has probably already been thrown away. However, my memory data remains in this Tuega's main computer."
"Are you planning on performing a transition surgery based on that data and regaining your memories?"
"That's right! At the same time, I'll forget all my memories of the continent. No! I want to forget!"
The world is full of rotten odor for Serufi
