「約束」に向かって光を探す

"Sorry guys! I'm headed off to "The Seven Walls"!" Emma announced to the others

"EEEEEHHHHHHHHHHHH!?"

"Wait a minute..." Lanion paused

"What do you mean?" Thoma asked

"Even though Norman said that he would wipe out all of the demons!" Nat yelled at us

"He did say that. However... I thought I was going to hold it in... But I guess it's impossible got me after all... I don't want to wipe out the demons" Emma told them

"EEHHHHHH!?"

""Wiping them out", "Extermination". That really would be the most reliable, correct way, but that's only our best guess at the moment. If there were only bad demons out there 75 would be easy. But the demons who live in the villages... They have children... And even babies. If we cut off their their food supply, they'll become like those wild demons and be wiped out... Just how much fear and hate... Do toy think we'll be creating? If at all possible, U don't want to kill them. And it might not be just me who doesn't want to kill them" Emma explained

"We were told about how we're going to have to kill Musica and Sonju" I added

"But this is entirely my own selfishness. These are all just things that I've been thinking about lately. I don't plan on dragging all of you into this. And Norman said that he has no intentions of stopping the plan or waiting. Even though I have no idea if there will actually be a way other than "Extinction". So Ray, Y/n and I are heading out a bit! I want to make a choice that I won't regret. I want to choose my future" Emma explained to the others

"I see..." Lanion said

"Is it just that our imaginations are lacking or..." The kids asked

"Well, in reality, it's because you guys have never seen the demon villages that are out there" Ray told them

"Even though I hate them so much... I still can't imagine our enemy has a side like that to them..." Sandy said

"Sandy..."

"But I despise demons...! I get what you're saying Emma. They're your friends... So you don't want to have to kill SonJu and Musica, but... But...! But you and everyone here is more important to me than the demons. The enemy doesn't show mercy. I want to have our friends protected first of all...! But to do that... There will be kids... Even babies... I, I-!" Gillian said and Paula pulled her into a hug

"Why..." Gilda said "Even though those demons tried to kill you the other day"

"They're weirdos" Ray said "At first I couldn't grasp it at all either"

"Why bring me into her shinanigans?!" I asked/yelled at him

"You didn't want to erase demons from the world too. You're bad at hiding it" He answered as I grumbled to myself

"Yeah, but that's Emma and Y/n for you" Don said from behind us

"Don..." Emma muttered

He gave us a grin "Well then, go right on ahead Emma and Y/n"

"Don!!!"

He looked down from us, occasionally glancing to us "Its Emma, Y/n and Ray after all. This is the result of endless thinking on their part. And also, I think they'll be able to avoid the risks involved with the "Seven Walls". It's not like I dislike your ideals, Emma and Y/n. More than anything, "If we take on this burden, we'll live a life without regrets"-That's why us escapees have always chosen "Freedom", right? Even if we told you to stop, there's no doubt you wouldn't listen"

"But..." Gilda opposed and grabbed both my hands "There's no need for you to do something so dangerous, Emma and Y/n... This is an extremely risky path, right...? If only there was some other way... Why... Why is it only you guys, Emma and Y/n..."

I hugged her "I'm sorry... This is the path Emma and I are choosing. This is the options that we understand best. And we'll... It's not just us this time. We won't let Norman sacrifice his life again" I told her pulling out if the hug

"Eh? Norman?"

"Yeah. That guy's the same as he's always been" Ray said

"He's not just trying to solve this by throwing his life away though. But again, for all of our sake, he's trying to sacrifice himself and carry the entire burden on his own" Emma said

"Neither I nor Emma and Y/n are convinced. His shipment. Our escape. He thinks that his answer is the only successful answer" Ray added

"But we haven't succeeded at all. Everyone's tried their hardest. And this isn't the end yet, but... To all of us, the second that we let Norman be shipped out... That escpae could never be called a success. I don't want to have those same regrets again. I won't let it happen this time. I want to prove to Norman that "We won't know if we don't try!". This is honestly just me being selfish here... " Emma said

"But for that reason, we want to go to "The Seven Walls". If we go we might be able to find out new possibilities" I told them

"I'll see if we can, and then quickly return, before Norman has the royal family and aristocrats killed" Emma said

"If that time does come, make a choice yourselves won't regret" Ray said putting his hands on top of Lanion and Thoma's hairs

"Even if it's you agreeing with Norman" I added

"... You dummies" Gilda said "I don't want to hear "If that time does come". Make sure you live and make it back. Even if it's a lie, promise me"

"I won't lie, but I will promise you. No matter what happens, I'll make it back safely. I'll be back" Emma told Gilda

"Got it! Leave the house-sitting to us! You Don have to worry, so go!" Gilda exclaimed

"Yeah!" Emma said

We told Norman before we did it

I placed the jar with golden water on the ground as we were outside the of the town

"Well everyone, we're off" I told the others as they watched us from afar

Emma put the flower of the ground as she picked up the small knife to cut the palm of our hands
