Thank you for waiting.
Originally, it was supposed to be a single episode, but it beca ridiculously long, so I divided it into three parts: upper, middle, and lower.
This ti, it's a quiet story from Shea's point of view.
It's serious.
____________________
From now on, I will cease to be .
When I thought about it, I couldn't help but write it down.
Hundreds of years have passed since his battle with the Demon King.
I thought I was doing my best for him, but in the end, it was all in vain, and I had given up on the idea that all I had to do was live my long life as a monster for nothing.
I couldn't do anything, I wasn't even prepared to give up, I was in despair.
He rejected others because of his apathy and remained indifferent.
But that was a big mistake.
I will not be from now on.
Personality may change.
The ego may be gone.
You may be trapped in a delusion that you once discarded.
But that's okay.
This is an atonent for what I did to him.
I'm Shea
A mixed-race orphan born to a demon mother and a human man.
It was an abomination that should not have been born.
●
When I realized it, my mother was gone.
All I rember is that I was there, but my mother, who had run away with because she was being chased by sothing, had left in a decaying hut and disappeared sowhere.
Maybe my mother abandoned because I was a monster and the villagers hated .
It may have been found out that I was deceiving the villagers like a devil, and I may have left in the way.
But I had no way of knowing that, so I could only shiver in the small house waiting for my mother, who was not supposed to co ho.
"Oh,."
It was a man with a sword who ca to , trembling alone.
A tired-looking man with long hair tied back was a beautiful ball of light floating from his hands. His face, illuminated by the light, had a look of regret or fear.
『…… What's your na?"
The man's na was Hisago.
He ca to kill at the request of the villagers, and no matter how the wind blew, he killed .
On top of that, he took out of that battered hut and took on the journey.
『…… Ah? I don't care if you're a devil or not.'
Why would you help ? When asked, he replies to throw up.
"I don't need help, this has nothing to do with you, it has nothing to do with ...... It's a way to make ands.'
Hisago's sad expression as he said this was strongly engraved in my mind.
●
After a while, Hisago and I drifted to Kamgerio, where we settled on the outskirts of a deserted village. I spent my days in peace and tranquility while studying with the magic book that was the only thing I had, but to be honest, I liked that kind of life.
It's fun to see the changing scenery on a trip, but it was also a great joy to have a ho to return to when I hadn't belonged since I was a child.
———Hisago, are you going sowhere?
In the course of his life staying in one place, he occasionally saw Hisago trying to go sowhere many tis.
Pack your bags as if you were going away, stop and co back.
He said that he didn't have to worry about it, but Hisago seed to be lost in sothing and hesitant.
"How long are you going to stay here?"
Hisago was definitely fulfilling his role as my father.
He was blunt but caring, and even after more than ten years, he only had to say a few bitter words to , even though I didn't stand on my own.
——— Hisago is getting old.
"You can't get old like that."
———Yes, I'm the devil after all.
"Don't think silly."
Hisago puts his hand on my head, which has not changed in appearance from a certain year.
"Sia, live freely, you don't have to worry about being a demon or a human."
But I'm not like the average person
"You're who you are, don't think it's normal."
——…… Yes.
His words helped a lot.
Just because you have devil and human blood doesn't an you can't live normally.
When I thought about it, I felt stupid for worrying about every single thing, so I started studying magic to be even more myself.
And———、
——Hisago!!
"Hey, Sia, I'm already Zizgy. Take care of your old body.'
——I learned magic!
"Oh? Did you learn magic?'
He wore the magic of life.
It can read the information left in the body of a dead person, extract mories ——— even magic lines, and even summon souls from physical information.
After a long ti of learning the magic, I was delighted and bravely reported it to Hisago.
『…… Bringing a dead guy back to life as a corpse? Presiding over the soul? …… It's a punishnt. …… Don't do that to , do you? Or rather, if that happens, my body will be dead. I don't feel safe at all.'
Maybe Hisago was aware that I was trying to bring him back to life at this ti.
Compared to humans, I live for a long ti.
Naturally, if this continues, Hisago will die before .
That was terrifying.
●
Ti is cruel.
As a half-demon, I grew up very slowly, and once I reached a certain age, I didn't grow old anymore. Hisago, who was an uncle in the years and decades, has beco an old man.
"What did I fight for?"
Hisago's black hair was dyed white, and his body was as thin as a dead tree, muttered as he gazed at the falling dusk.
"I thought about correcting my mistakes over and over again."
"If we leave sothing like this in the future, it will only bring disaster."
"This ti, I'm going to sprinkling death."
"I thought about it over and over again and tried to stop it."
It wasn't until the end of his life that he said it repeatedly.
I don't really understand the contents.
Because Hisago didn't tell much about his past.
"But I couldn't."
"If I do that, what am I for...... What did you hunt down the demon tribe for? What did you kill them for?'
He holds his head in his mouth as if to repent.
"Why did you want Nagi and that child...... Did you betray ?'
I don't know what to say to him as he suffers and his voice trembles.
But I thought I couldn't let him push any further, so I was about to put my hand on my shrunken back——— when Hisago grabbed my wrist.
A weak hand that doesn't even feel the grip strength anymore.
"Shea ...... I'm sure you'll see my mory.'
——!
"Stop being stupid, I beg you, just you are free to live."
——Why, why, why......?
"It's not going to be like ."
He uttered the words pleadingly——— and that night he passed away in his sleep.
I couldn't accept the death of his father.
"Hisago, I'm sorry."
I ignored his words and retrieved the mories left in the corpse.
A ball of light rises from the pale body of Hisago lying on the bed.
Light magic and his mory.
The mont you reach out and touch ——— beautifully shining thing.
"mories of Hisago" flowed into my head like a turbid stream.
The mories of "Hisago" who went through the battle and separation from his family, and the suffering of "Hisago the Brave" who was terrible and full of regret.
I can't help but writhe and writhe on the floor with my head in my hands.
"Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh
The corpses of his wife and daughter died of illness.
A grueso battlefield where the corpses of soldiers in unfamiliar armor lie everywhere.
Hisago is oppressed in so country.
Hisago is stoned and insulted by the people.
And even if he despairs of ——— human, the ordeal left by Hisago who has hope for the future.
From his mory, only sadness and despair flow directly into his head.
Has he lived with such a slashing thought? I was in despair, but how could I still work for this world?
If this is the case, Hisago will not be rewarded.
「…… Ahhh......hhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh
I'm lonely, I want to see my family.
I want to apologize to the girl who betrayed , I want to make ands.
An uninterrupted sadness eats away at my heart.
"Hisago ......"
I couldn't bear the grief and impulsively used witchcraft.
The art of summoning souls into the corpses of manipulators.
If he has even a little unfinished business and a strong will to live, the corpse that has started to move should have the will of Hisago.
You don't have to be crazy, you don't have to be insane. If it's Hisago himself.
As a result of using magic with such thoughts, his corpse, which was supposed to be dead, rises up on its own.
「!!」
He ca back to life.
I was so happy that I was about to talk to him——— but I noticed it when I saw his hollow eyes.
HeNot here・・・・・・・That's what I an.
"That's a lie...... Hisago, why!! Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh
He didn't have the slightest desire to co back to life.
Without even a plan, an empty body that has lost its soul begins to move.
A decaying body that doesn't smile softly, and doesn't make you feel Hisago's presence.
"Uh-huh......
In the face of the fact that I had toyed with the corpse of my benefactor, I felt intense self-loathing and could not control my nausea.
Hisago no longer returns.
I'll never see you again.
This was proved by the skeleton in the form of a wasago standing up in front of him.

Still, he was an invaluable father to Shea.
