Finally.
Back where we began the journey towards that hell of ours.
"You all have coats, right?" Elijah asked from the front.
"…" I didn't, though, it wasn't much of an issue since one was resting on the ground beside me.
Oh? I noticed my katana, I noticed Chronos.
What? A voice entered my brain directly as the sword's purple crack shone.
"Huh?"
Huh? My ass.
What, I can hear you like this too? I tried speaking with my mind too.
Of course you can, we're linked together. You can say that I've become a factor too. But in my case, I was chosen by you, The One.
Hmm, now this is interesting, I thought to myself.
"Let's see, they're really dead, huh?" My mind kept going back to my comrades.
Why did I survive that destructive explosion? How did I survive it? Is it because I am The One or whatever?
I don't know, what I do realize though, is that I have no will to keep going anymore.
...
It is really uncomfortable to feel Elias's emotions first-hand...
