[Ln] Volume 4: Chapter 7.5



Translator : PolterGlast

She just kept running. As if to escape the urge to rip out her own chest.

With her ragged breathing, she headed for the medical facility of the Gloaurum Institute, where he slept.

She opened the front door with a force that could have destroyed it and dashed into the white corridor.

"Oi, stop right there!"

"Irisdina-kun? Wha, wait!"

The facility's staff members widened their eyes upon seeing the beautiful dark-haired girl running at such a high speed, but Irisdina paid no attention to them. She ignored the guards who tried to stop her, and even Inda's voice as she passed by.

When she reached Nozomu's hospital room, she opened the door violently.

The room was shrouded in silence. On the bed, Nozomu was still sleeping peacefully.

He was breathing softly as usual.

"Haa, haa, haa, haa... Nozomu."

Irisdina walked over to the bed, not bothering to calm her rough breathing.

As his name leaked out of her mouth, it melted away into the quiet of the hospital room.

*Creak, creak* ....... Her heart was creaking. She squeezed her chest and bit her lip as if to endure the pain that ran through her. The white hands turned even whiter and wrinkles were carved into the clean uniform.

"Come on, wake up. You've been sleeping a little too much, you know? If you don't get up soon, you'll have a hard time keeping up with the class."

The aching did not subside. Instead, it seeped out of her chest like a leaking rain.

With a hoarse voice, she shook Nozomu, who was lying on the bed. But there's no reply......

"Somia, Shina, and the others are worried about you, too. And, and......."

The smile that she managed to put on her face was distorted into an ugly smile. Trying to escape the pain that stirred in her chest, she kept rocking the sleeping Nozomu. Although she tried to hold back her tears, her uncontrollable emotions continued to overflow.

"Wake up, please wake up......! Let me hear your voice......!"

Her mind replayed the memory of her childhood, when she clung to her mother, who had passed away and become a mere husk.

The image of her mother on her deathbed and the image of Nozomu sleeping overlapped. Exceeding her limits, Irisdina's eyes became moist and a single tear trickled down her cheek. She could not suppress it anymore.

"Gu~. Uu....... Uuu......!"

Tears flowed like a broken dam, and Irisdina clung to Nozomu's chest. She squeezed the futon so hard that she could almost tear it off, buried her face in it, and sobbed incessantly.

With a dry clicking sound, the hair ornament Nozomu had bought for her detached, and tears streamed down to wet Nozomu's chest. When she raised her face, she saw his sleeping face right beside her.

His face has no particular distinguishing features. But when he smiled, she felt warmth from the bottom of her heart. But now.......

"Hic, hic ....... Nozomu......."

Bringing her face closer and gently touching Nozomu's cheek, she pressed her own lips against Nozomu's.

First kiss.

She recalled the time when they fought the Cracked-Crown Giant Centipede. Shina kissed Nozomu to calm him down when he went out of control.

Just wanting Nozomu to wake up, Irisdina kept pressing her lips against his.

However, her wish was in vain, and Nozomu's eyelids did not open.

The hair ornament that fell on his chest caught her attention.

It was the gift he had bought her the first time they walked the streets together.

The pain that was just welling up deep within her chest suddenly disappeared. All that remained was a gaping hole and a fierce chill.

"............"

Irisdina gently raised herself up and left the hospital room in a daze.

She walked through the corridor with unsteady steps and went straight outside.

It was already dark outside. A chilly breeze caressed her cheeks.

"Ai!"

"Tima......?"

Suddenly, she was hugged from behind. The familiar voice of her best friend was calling out Irisdina's name.

Even though the name was being shouted in her ear, the voice sounded somewhat distant.

"Why are you here......?"

A question came out of reflex amid her not-so-well thought process. Tima did not answer but kept hugging her as if wrapping her from behind.

"I'm okay. I'm ...... perfectly okay."

She repeated the same words as if parroting them back, but her choked voice had no power, no persuasive power at all. Tima's arms tightened as if to comfort Irisdina, who looked as if she would break at any moment.

"Don't worry, everything is fine .......uu~"

The warmth rekindled Irisdina's frozen emotions.

At the same time, the tears that should have dried up began to well up again. Tima shifted her body and wrapped Irisdina's face in her chest as if to hide the sobs that were beginning to leak out.

"Uuu~, aaa~ ......"

Wrapped in the warmth of her best friend, Irisdina began to weep again.

Camilla hugged Lisa with her weak hands and slowly, really slowly, began to stroke Lisa's hair. Her gentle movements were like a mother comforting her daughter. Lisa's eyes widened and her trembling body slowly began to relax.

"I'm so sorry. And thank you......"

Upon hearing these quiet, gentle words in her ear, Lisa finally reached her limit, and tears trickled down from her eyes. Emotions overflowing like a raging stream. She began to weep in an inarticulate voice.

"U~, ~......"

No matter how hard she clenched her teeth and tried to suppress the tears, they wouldn't stop. The pent-up emotions that had accumulated in the depths of her chest were being washed away. For a while, Lisa just kept crying.

However, at that moment, a low, raspy third-party voice drifted into their ears.

"Found, you ......."

The voice made them turn around reflexively. From the depths of the darkness peeking through the trees, a figure emerged.

It was a blonde-haired young man wearing the uniform of the Solminati Academy. His entire body was drenched with water, and his face was downcast with no expression visible. However, there was a strange aura emanating from his entire body.

A black shadow like a mirage. It covered Ken's entire body and swayed like a mirage every time he took a step forward.

"Ken......"

As Lisa was stunned by the appearance of her childhood friend, who appeared with a strange aura, a jet of pitch black source element suddenly erupted from Ken's body. The murky source element, reminiscent of the muddy stream of sewage, swirled and rose into the sky.

Ken, who had been downcast, raised his face. His wide, crimson eyes fixed on the two of them.

Then, an arrow flew from the sky. Shina, who had been waiting nearby, rushed to their aid.

The arrow was easily knocked down by Ken's arm, which was swung carelessly.

Meanwhile, Shina's eyes widened at the strange presence that Ken was giving off. It was the presence of an abominable being that she herself knew very well.

"This is that evil beast's...... both of you, run!"

Camilla, reacting to Shina's voice, took Lisa's hand and ran away.

However, as if to block their way, a huge white wall of light rose up from the ground.

The translucent wall towered in a circle, trapping Ken, Camilla, and the others inside.

"This is, a barrier!? (Raz, can you hear me!?)"

(Shi-jou, what the hell is going on?......)

Suddenly, black source elements erupted from Ken's body and swallowed the three of them in an instant.
