Cecilia and I were enveloped in a heavy atmosphere.

Roy was humming as he walked.

That’s the difference.

I think he’s usually an honest person. But, I can’t accept his way of thinking about beastn.

Furthermore, as a necromancer, he’s missing sothing important, or rather, he’s completely uninhibited.

For the sake of research, he easily throws away the sense of ethics that Cecilia and I have. He’s a dangerous guy that I couldn’t imagine when we first t…that’s Roy Darrendorf.

Roy, who was walking ahead of us, said with a carefree smile, whether he knew how we felt or not.

[Co on, we’re almost there. The quickest way from the laboratory is to go through this forest.]

[Right.]

Without being told, the Great Wall is overwhelmingly tall.

Even in the dense forest, it can be clearly seen through the small gaps in the trees.

[…the presence of the beastn has disappeared.]

[They hate the Great Wall. If they go beyond this point, they will revert to their original form, so they are scared.]

They seem different from the beastn who were with the elves. They were not afraid of the Great Wall, nor did they hate it. They just seed to have co to the realization that they had no choice but to live inside. But when the Great Wall collapsed, they turned into monsters…

Cecilia asked Roy in a questioning tone.

[Are you manipulating the beastn to beco like that?]

[Maybe you’re talking about selective breeding? I don’t know. It’s not my area of expertise.]

[Don’t dodge the question. How much have the high elves done to the beastn?]

Even when pressed, Roy answered calmly.

[Even if you knew, it would be too late to change anything now. Besides, it would only hurt your feelings. Things have already changed…the past cannot be restored. Beastn are thriving as a species thanks to the high elves. If you think of them as living creatures, then one can say they are now.]

[You, monster!]

[Cecilia, let’s stop now. Arguing with Roy won’t solve anything. This is what’s happening in the world of the high elves. No matter how much we outsiders try to speak up, we won’t be understood.]

[That’s right. I’m sorry, but even if you try to force your ethics on us, we have such different histories and cultures.]

Roy’s words say it all.

Humans and high elves cannot understand each other. Their ethics are just too different.

Even with Cecilia, an elf who is thought to be a close race, they can’t get along with each other this well.

High elves probably won’t change their way of thinking. Is it the closed environnt of the Great Wall that has made them do this? Or is it just the temperant that high elves are born with? Ɽ𝙖ƝȰβĚȿ

Either way, they will beco enemies of humans. That was the only thing I couldn’t avoid.

[We’ve arrived. This is the Great Wall you wanted to visit.]

[Thank goodness. I thought you’d refuse to let co here.]

[It’s a pain to go outside, but why did you want to co here, Fate?]

Roy seed to be listening with re curiosity, rather than trying to find out my true intentions.

[I just wanted to know if it was any different from the Great Wall the elves had.]

[I see, what do you think? Is it the sa? Is it different?]

[I can’t tell right away. Can you give a bit of ti?]

[Very well then.]

I gave a false excuse to avoid the question. Roy seed to be convinced.

Cecilia really wanted to know if there was a difference, and it was a good cover.

Roxy was maintaining the Great Wall. I felt like I heard her voice when I touched it to get in.

I thought I might be able to contact Roxy through the Great Wall. When Greed examined Roxy as she slept in the temple, he felt that her soul was elsewhere.

Praying to connect with Roxy, I gently touched the Great Wall.

At that mont, I felt as if lightning had flowed into my fingertips.

[This is…]

I was standing on a shallow ocean that continued on forever. There were no waves, and the water was enveloped in silence.

Looking up at the sky, I saw a terrifyingly blue sky. If I kept looking, I felt like I was being sucked into the deep blue.

The blue of the sea and the blue of the sky continued on and on as far as I could see. I’m sure the sa scene was spreading out on the other side of the horizon. It was a world that made feel that way.

I put my hand into the water and scooped up so sand.

It was a color other than blue. The pure white sand was moist and wet, but it quickly dried and fell smoothly from my hands.

When everything fell, I noticed the ripples on the ocean’s surface getting bigger and bigger.

The ocean didn’t move at all even when I moved. Now the ripples created by the sand being washed away spread, amplified, and turned into small waves.

It felt like I was the catalyst that made the still world start moving again.

Looking up at the sky, clouds were forming one after another and drifting beyond the horizon.

[What the!?]

Sothing was wriggling at my feet, which were subrged in the ocean.

Looking more closely, I saw they were small shells and crustaceans. A short distance away, a school of jellyfish was swimming gracefully.

The sea level rises little by little as the number of living creatures increases.

The sea level, which was around my ankles, was already below my knees.

[Fish!]

A school of fish so large that the surface of the sea turned pitch black passed by my feet. So of them jumped out of the water as if to greet .

Looking in the direction the fish were going, the shallow sea seed to be getting deeper. There were glowing corals here and there, which beca the fish’s habitat.

In the distance, the water was probably too deep to even stand in. I felt like I was the only one left behind in this changing world.

The sky was also lively. Birds were flying around, occasionally landing to catch fish.

On the horizon, a whale-like creature was spewing water with great force. The birds were dancing as if enjoying it.

As I watched, the world nurtured the activities of living things. Things that had been happening for an imnse amount of ti were running through them at incredible speed.

The world stopped when I heard the sound of a baby crying from sowhere.

[…Fai.]

A dignified and very gentle voice ca from behind . I felt nostalgic and tears were coming to my eyes.

I called her na, choking on my words.

[Roxy!]

When I turned around to look at her, the world had returned to normal.

There was only the shallow sea and the blue sky, and no other living creatures existed apart from us.

It was as if the world had been prepared just for the two of us.

Roxy smiled and reassured .

[We finally t. I’m fine as you can see.]

[Are you really, though? I was worried that Libra or the High Elves had done sothing to you…]

[I’m protecting this place of my own free will. Inside the Great Wall, as you saw earlier, many souls have gathered. Soone has to bring them together.]

[Just why did it have to be you, Roxy?]

[There was no one else who could do it… I couldn’t abandon the beastn.]

That was typical of her. I was one of the people who were saved by Roxy.

[I can’t leave here yet. Fai, please save the beastn. So that such a tragedy never happens again…]

I wondered. What on earth did she an by “never happens again” an?

Even though I tried to ask again, the whole world turned white and disappeared.

Roxy also disappeared before my eyes.

[Fai, no matter what happens… I believe in you.]

With those last words, I was pulled back to the real world.

In front of was a gaping hole in the Great Wall. A passage to the outside had been created.
