"- Huh!"

My consciousness was freed from the darkness as if I were forced to pull it out of the sea where it was sinking into the deep sea. My head is clammy and my vision is flashing. I can't think together.

Exhale the air that was accumulating in your lungs and breathe with Zeze. A shock enough to make me want to doubt if I'm putting my foot on the ground. Mixed emotions swirl in my mind.

Most of the people around me seem to be in the same situation as me. He opens his eyes and has a startled look on his face. I stand suddenly in the wind of self-loss.

- What happened in the dark was so shocking.

At that time, a tremendous roar struck our bodies. Turn your gaze forward, indulging in not being blown away by a mass of powerful sounds.

It was too late when I realized the roar was a Meteodragon roar.

He was looking down at me, dragging his dying body.

――――!!

"-!! - Huh!!"

Drua and the others are screaming, but the words are not in my ear.

The body that had been moving so lightly ceased to move the moment it was aware of a clear death.

My gaze nails the Meteodragon.

Open your mouth dragon,

Give me a brace.

The meteorite.

Ah.

Die.

The last time I called my name...

The last thing I thought of was - -.

――――――――――――――――――――

I was born into a common, normal family. Well, it's not that I know anything about other households, so normality to me isn't always normal to other households, but anyway, I was born into a particularly disabling family.

I don't remember my face anymore, but my parents were nice to me, and my brother did a lot for me.

I don't know what to say to myself, but I seemed like a good kid. You learn words faster than your brother, you get up faster, you can do a lot of things. I don't think my parents ever hated my brother, but my brother and I were well compared. Now I think my brother was trying hard to look good in front of me because maybe my parents were comparing him to me.

And I won't forget, the day my parents died.

Mother and father are dead, I couldn't feel it when they told me. 'Cause we were right around the corner until a few hours ago, and we were talking right next door. I never saw him again, I couldn't believe what he said.

I don't really remember what conversation was going on in the house because I was too young to understand it, but I remember I was in a hurry with the doozy anyway.

The fact that I didn't have a real feeling about the death of my parents didn't change when I saw the coffin containing the two bodies. The body was terrible because of the accident, and they couldn't show it to me, but maybe looking at the body didn't make any difference.

Watching my brother zero large tears, I considered my parents' deaths blurry.

But it was an unexpected and immediate event to realize that he was dead. The living room, the kitchen, the washroom, the bathroom, the bedroom, the veranda, wherever I went, there were no two of them, and when I called my name, I didn't get back to me. So finally, I thought those two were already dead.

It was sad and hard, but I didn't cry. Seeing my brother who started sleeping with me every day and my grandparents buying me delicious rice and toys, I thought I had to work hard. Your brother had a missing spot, and I thought I had to protect him because my parents had told him something like "Akatsuki is out of company in elementary school" before.

I'm working on it properly, but my chest was kind of painful. I felt like something was accumulating. I wanted someone to help me. But I thought I had to protect my brother.

It was my brother who should have thought I had to protect him for saving me like that.

My brother's arms enveloping my body, a bit of a manly body stuck together, and a very reassuring smell like being wrapped in a futon.

My brother said, "I'll protect you."

I was happy, something that was kind of buildup in my chest overflowing, tears that I shouldn't have come out before.

Since that day, your brother has been trying harder than ever to show me a good place. I wasn't good at it. I was working hard at studying and exercising I didn't like. Sometimes rumors came into my ear that my brother was being taken off the hook at school, but my brother didn't look spicy at all. I went into middle school, into the Kendo club, and my brother couldn't put on his protective gear or remember it slower than everyone else, but he worked hard every day.

Being in high school, my brother didn't seem to have a good relationship at school. Still, my brother didn't look spicy after all.

Even when I was being frustrated, he rushed right to help me.

I was happy.

When I thought about my brother, I felt like my chest was tightening up.

I think that's how the emotions I was holding back for me exploded when I failed my college exams. My brother pulled into his room and stopped doing anything. Even when I spoke, I stopped saying anything to my brother because of the terrible words I had never said before.

I used to talk to Apples about my brother like that. She took my advice whenever she wanted. I've been inspired many times.

When I met my brother in Blade Online, I didn't let him into the party. He looked like he wanted me in, but I thought I'd let him in. But I never wanted him to die, and I thought my brother had to pull it off in the city.

On that day, after that, he said to the Seven Seas:

- Mr. Akatsuki has been trying so hard to protect Mr. Akatsuki, but Mr. Akatsuki can easily discern such a thing.

Hearing the words, I was shocked as if I had been beaten.

I looked back at what I had done.

I disgusted myself for abandoning my brother immediately, who had always worked hard for me.

Seven Seas was apparently seeing his brother in real life, and I don't know if it's true, but he's in love with what Apple says. There was somewhat where she put her shoulders against her brother, but still her words remained in my mind the whole time.

Then I looked for my brother. I asked all kinds of people to help me find my brother, but I ended up not finding him anywhere. Everyone must have died already, he said. To make sure with my own eyes I couldn't believe it, I went to the grave where the names of the dead players would be engraved. I searched my brother's name in the grave one day when I was free. At the same time, I was looking for my brother in the city and the neighborhood, but inside, I guess my brother's already dead, I thought.

- - If your brother was dead... what would I do?

I cried many times in front of the Seven Seas and apples saying that. Many times I wanted to see him and apologize.

When I saw your brother in The Event, I was really happy. He said he lived.

Yet, yet, I did not lend my ear to the words of my brother, who had apologized from me. Call and yell. Sure, my brother said terrible things about me. I did, but I thought I sucked at doing this myself.

Now I wonder, was my brother really able to fight with all his might then?

Really, couldn't your brother beat me?

I think so, but even if I asked him in person, he would probably answer that it was all-powerful. That's why I haven't heard.

Thanks to the support of the apples, I was able to register friends with my brother after the event. We talked a little bit in the message. The reply turned out to be a disgusting thing, but I was still so happy to be able to talk to my brother in a message. I was thrilled whenever the message came.

I hated myself for not being honest.

I think I was jealous of her when I saw the girl I miss calling her "brother". That's what I wanted to scream at you that I'm the only one who can call you "brother" about your brother. So when my brother told me, 'You're the only sister I care about', I was so glad I was about to cry. It took me hours to think of a short sentence, trying to reply to my brother. I typed it in, turned it off. I typed it in and repeatedly turned it off.

I think I finally got to be honest then when my brother hugged me crying at my first boss offensive meeting. Maybe one of them will die tomorrow. Thinking about it, I thought I had to speak for real. I haven't slept with my brother in a long time, and I was happy.

... Though my chest was pounding and my face was hot.

I talked to my brother a lot since that day and played a lot.

You shouldn't have been hot in real life, but for some reason in virtual reality, your brother was hot.

Lynn or the Seven Seas, and then Mr. I already said it wasn't like romantic feelings, but Mr. Rencia and I were close. I've been jealous. I've been irrationally angry with my brother many times. We made up soon, we slept together...

Katana, when I found out that you killed Lin and the others and injured your brother.

I'm glad my brother didn't die. At the same time, I hurt my brother, Katana. You couldn't forgive me. I've never thought I'd kill you before.

So I was surprised to learn that Lynn gave precedence to her brother over her death. I might have been angry if I told my brother about this. But my brother was the most important of all.

I was jealous of Lynn when I saw her brother pulled off in the trauma of losing her. At the same time I was glad my brother relied on me. This time, I thought I could protect you.

I thought I could protect you.

――――――――――――――――――――

Is it a horse racing light?

People say that in the short time before they die, they look back on their previous lives.

Looking back like this, it was my brother who made up the majority of my life, after all.

If what happened in the 'dark' is true, I...

Slowly close your eyes and wait for the impact of Meteovres.

But - the shock didn't come no matter how long it took.

Instead, a fierce explosion sounded right around the corner.

Did the braces explode?

Then why isn't it shocking to me?

Slowly I opened my eyes and I took a lot of breath.

At the same time something warm comes in, and it takes shape and falls zero out of my eyes.

Wrapped in red armor like blood, pale machetes like pale flames on his hands.

Long dark hair no different from the real world.

Kicking the ground and jumping big, he sharpened the Meteor Dragon's remaining HP with that machete with one blow. When the Meteodragon screamed and collapsed to the ground, it became light and vanished.

Make sure the Meteodragon's gone, turn to the cochlea.

"Sorry, you kept me waiting"

said his brother.
