Uh-huh.

Uh-huh.

Uh-huh.

Uh-huh.

(… n, this is……. Where? What the hell happened to me? Fall off the river, then……)

When I opened my eyes, Takumi was alone in a bland space with nothing around her. Look in all directions, there's nothing in the space.

- No, someone shows up somewhere far from Takumi on foot.

Feels like Takumi's head is tall enough to be over one hundred and eighty centimeters tall. I can't see my face well because I'm wearing a black cape and I'm wearing a hood deep.

Takumi gazed at him with a strange face.

(Who? And that guy... how are you walking in this nowhere...?)

Eventually, the person stopped pitifully as he walked in a space with nothing to a position about three metres from Takumi.

Something happened and Takumi looked at the man approaching her with a strange face, and suddenly words came through her head.

- Well done... boy. This is the second time I've met a human being, including you.

"Become!?

A clear voice echoed in Takumi's head. Is someone standing in the front talking to me? And from his voice and tone, he's apparently a man.

And Takumi, surprised by the words that had suddenly flowed into his head, returned to me and asked the question because there were so many things he wanted to ask the man.

"Hey, who are you? Besides, what the hell happened to me?

-... hmm. Shall I answer you in turn? First of all, the first question. I'm the Keeper of the Long Lands. I don't get questions about the origin of this name.

"Long time land...?

- Regarding the second question... You show up randomly from time to time, and you come here through the gates that connect you to the world you were in.

"What are you talking about, you? I was attacked by a walker on my way home from a citrus tree and a supermarket, and I fell into the river."

So Ha Takumi shrugged horribly to ask.

"- Are you telling me that the gate and the dots showed up on the way down to the river?

- Well, there's no law or anything in the place. I guess so.

Information processing was not catching up in Takumi's head because of what was happening without clapping.

"Oh no... so suddenly they say you've come to a different world and believe me?

The man shrugged his shoulders at Takumi's upset voice.

- Phew... Believe it or not, it's none of my business and... Well, I think it would be wise to understand my current situation early...

Then the man turned to Takumi for a while and shut up, talking directly into his head like he remembered something.

- Right...... Could your last name be Kiryu? Uh-huh.

"Well...... yes. How the hell do you know that?

- Right, still...? Well, let me give you one piece of information you might be interested in. I have met someone who would be your father. He's got to be somewhere in the world right now.

Takumi was surprised to see her eyes open and her mouth half open to the man's words.

No way. It had already been two years since he was missing, and Takumi couldn't believe the man's words when he suddenly had information about his own father that he didn't even know if he was alive anymore.

"My father!? No way, no..."

- It's time. That you have the protection of the Seven Emperors...

"Just give me a minute! Tell me more! Dad, is Dad really alive!? Please... Mm..."

So Takumi's consciousness was interrupted again.
