Under the moonlight pouring, gray-brown hair softly crumbled.

I slowly opened my mouth when I saw the face of the man who had given me his hand.

Am I dreaming with my eyes open? I doubted it inwardly, but it didn't seem any real in my eyes.

He, who died five years ago, was now reaching out to me.

"...Eclise."

I squirted my lips for a long time and muttered like a shrill scream.

"You... you, were you alive?"

Callisto had been searching the Empire for quite some time because he could not find his body.

It was to find all the rebels and execute them so as not to leave any regrets behind.

I overheard a report of the search for the rebels with a nervous heart.

But in the end, Eclise's body was never found.

Now, five years later, it was believed that the dragon had disappeared without leaving even the belly of the breath. (?)

Actually, there were quite a few people whose bodies couldn't be found for that reason.

However, I couldn't even imagine in my dream that I would face such an unexpected situation in an unexpected place.

"......how....what happened?"

I sat up and leaned over.

And asked, looking at him with confused eyes.

"Where the hell have you been? It couldn't have been easy to be chased for years...."

It was then.

As he stared at me like a doll without saying a word, he suddenly opened his mouth.

"Is my original name Eclise?"

"...what?"

I looked up at him blankly as if I didn't hear anything.

Then he slowly crouched in front of me to match our eye level.

"I don't remember five years ago."

"That... that's not...."

"One of the mercenaries picked up the bleeding me from a back alley. They called me Hamilton. It was the name of the back alley where I was lying..."

"......."

"Do you happen to know?"

He asked me quietly, keeping a close eye on me.

Like wax, I was reflected in the grayish brown pupil.

I felt it was very unfamiliar and familiar at the same time.

Because Eclise would always stare at me with this face, just like this, without any particular agitation.

So it was hard to believe his words about losing his memory.

"......don't lie."

I glared at him, who looked as if he was asking me to refer to him as Hamilton.

"You were this close, but you weren't found? You were about to die because you had a hole in your stomach."

"........."

"It took us quite a long time to prepare those rewards, I don't think any of the mercenaries would ever try to hide you...."

"Seeing that there was a restraint harness on the neck, a Mercenary leader tried to make me angry."

Cutting off my suspicious words, he spoke calmly.
