─ ─ ─ ─ But... after breaking up with us, humans who seem to be new together never show up.

I was waiting to meet a new guy, but I was about to give up somewhere.

I can't do this anymore. [M]

That's how I've spent a long time in a sleeping obscurity like I'm awake in a dark place.

But.

But I get it. The fact that there are humans in the immediate vicinity who are likely to be new together.

That's why I'm sending a signal to that human.

I'm here. I've been waiting for a human like you.

Please.

Come to me sooner...

"--I see. Go out to a scary place and make sure you have the courage... that's 'creepy' isn't it?

"Yeah. Later, I've been told that when you feel scared for a long time, your spine gets cold, and how to avoid heat in a hot summer period from an age without cooling etc...... well, that's a summer festival poem"

"Fuubutsushi......? Hmm, another difficult word came up"

"Oh, poetry is..."

Lighting his feet with a flashlight, Yasushi walks on a dark trail teaching Elle the meaning of a festive poem.

Elle, who walks shoulder-to-shoulder beside it, also hears wholeheartedly your words.

Ryu and Aoi, a few steps away from them, walked around pointing the flashlight light at times.

"... so did you decide to confess?

Never look at the smell. Ryu whispered softly so that he could only hear the smell of walking next door.

"... well, that's..."

Dye your face bright red. Keeping his gaze fixed at his feet, Aye groans with a squeaky mosquito voice.

"... hey, I tried to sneak a simulation in my room a few times..."

Inside the aye room. So I looked up to you with a stuffed animal or something, and imagined Aoi practicing his confession toward it, Ryu desperately pushed and killed the laughter that was coming in.

The sight he imagined was certainly hilarious, but you still can't laugh at it. Aye is serious about aye. Laughing at it is not acceptable.

In fact, as Ryu imagined, it is her only secret that she was pasting a picture of you on the face of the biggest stuffed animal she has and practicing her confession toward it.

"... but no matter how many times I try to simulate it, I'm too embarrassed sometimes to speak! If this is in practice, if I really try to confess... I'm so bored to death with embarrassment!

"... don't be confident about that..."

"And you have no choice! So... so now... it seems a little impossible..."

Aye words that get more and more butt-shuttered. Ryu listens to that only forward, as always.

"Right... but don't just regret it later, okay?

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

Ai also responded that way by looking only at his feet as usual.

So she didn't realize that Ryu at this time had some relieved look on her face.

Without realizing they were having such a conversation behind their backs, Yasushi and Elle had such a bright conversation out of place.

"So, Mr. Yastaka. There's another word I don't understand."

"Huh? Was there any hard Japanese?

"Yes. What does' Gee Tip 'mean?

Yasushi heard rumors of skeletons coming out behind this dark trail and came to see if it was true.

That Elle also understood, but I don't know what the hepatic and kidney tips are. I can imagine something horrible from the way things are going.

"Oh, skeletons are... yeah... hey, Ryu. Fantasy novel. What did you say about the skeleton?

"Hmm? You mean Skeleton?

"Yeah, yeah, that's it. Skeleton would know?

"No......"

Elle tilts her neck and looks at Yasushi.

"Oh well. 'Skeleton' is the word of the world over here, too. It's only natural that Elle doesn't understand. I mean, you know, I'm just a monster with bones that move with magic and curses and stuff... is there such a guy in El's world?

"Yes, I'm here. The magically moving bone monster thing is called Jabalushi in Elf and Gilgradu in Trading... ok... ma..."

Unexpectedly, Elle's complexion was so blue that she could clearly see it among the dim lights of the flashlight.

"Huh... Huh...? Could it be that... I'm going to make sure..."

"Yeah. That jabba. What a monster. We call it skeleton or skeleton over here."

"Yarrrrrrrrrr!!"

Suddenly he shouted, holding his head to the spot.

Surprised Yasushi puts her hand on her shoulder, but Elle waves her body left and right as if to shake it off.

"Yalau!! Yalau!! Giglas Doggergal Rigging Dugardos Jabalusian Rampist!!"

Aye and Ryu, who were walking a few steps back, rushed in surprise at the sudden modulation of El.

"Hey, hey! What's all of a sudden?

"No way... did something come up...?

Aye kneels in just like her next to Elle, stroking its back slowly, and Ryu runs a flashlight light light around her with a face drawn to fear.

"And there doesn't seem to be anything for now... what the hell is wrong with Elle?

"Well, I'm not sure about that either. I was talking about the skeleton, and all of a sudden, Elle...

Yasushi shows how he thinks and thinks about something.

"Hey, do you have something in mind?

"Ugh, yeah. Look, the Ryus know I've been teaching Elle Japanese before, right? That's when Elf taught me some Elf words, too."

"So you figured out what Elle said earlier?

"I just don't know everything, but I could only hear some words. Sure... 'Yalau' meant 'no' or 'no', and 'piste' should have meant 'scared' or something. And because there was also the word 'jabarushi' which means skeleton..."

Listen to Yasushi, Aye and Ryu look at each other unexpectedly.

"But maybe Elle... scared of Skeleton...?

"So, but Elle is an adventurer, isn't he? Then aren't skeletons and zombies like clutterfish?

"No, we don't know if the skeletons and zombies in El's world are miscellaneous fish, do we? Besides, if you're an adventurer, there's something you don't like or don't like physiologically, right?

Even as Yasushi and the others talked about it, Elle shuddered as she stood still.

"Uh-huh. Me, hi Rigging...... uh, in this one's words it was' Amnda '......? I really don't like demons in the' dead but not dead 'system..."

Drop your shoulders and walk tight El. I don't wear an example knitted hat because I don't have eyes here, but I also feel that the characteristic long ears that are dewy are somewhere.

"Hmm, so to speak, undead phobia. So, what do we do? Will Elle stop going ahead and go home alone?

"Yes, I don't like it. I can't believe I'm going home alone from here to Yastaka's house!! Besides, even if I go home, I'm afraid to wait alone in the house..."

In tears, Elle petitions Yasushi. At that time, her hands don't even try to let go by squeezing the hem of your clothes tightly.

"But when I come home late on a part-time job, you're always waiting all by yourself, right?

"Yes, always always! It's today! It's not the same today!!"

Reason I don't know, but to Elle, who looks like he could really cry if he stays like this, Yasushi decided to take Elle like this as planned.

"But if you're an adventurer, you've met the undead, right? What happened then?

"That's when... while I was shaking, my people just knocked me down..."

Elle's undead phobia sounds more serious than I thought. As rumors have it, I don't really expect skeletons to appear at the end of this dark trail, but when I was wondering if I should suggest stopping the liver test if Elle would be too scared.

Yasushi noticed Ryu staring somewhere in silence.

"What's wrong, Ryu?

"... look at that one"

That's what Ryu pointed at was one minivan parked a little further from them. I don't even know the color because it's dark, but it's probably a black or grey dark system.

"What's wrong with that car?

"No... it's not natural to have a car parked here, is it?

That's what they say, Yasushi and Aoi will take a closer look at the car again.

This trail they're on has only enough road width for one car to manage, and there's definitely got to be a stop blocking the way up ahead. The car in question was forcefully parked in a tiny space on the shoulder of the road, but it doesn't matter what Ryu says about parking in a place like this.

"And... that car... is it kind of shaky...?

I don't know for sure because of the dark surroundings, but it does look like that car is rocking every bit.

"Also, could..."

Aye, but sigh and groan.

"Oh, oh, that's called that... a couple in a car..."

"Yay, I knew you'd think that too...?

Yasushi, Ryu, and Aye, the three of us look at each other. It's dark and not good to see, but Yasushi guessed that the other two would be blushing just like themselves.

"Yes, I'm going...... whoa!!"

Put that aside and Aye walked out to the car early enough.

"Oh, hey... no way... are you going to peek?

"No, silly!! I decided I didn't see it and I'm just passing by!!"

Sure, if you're going to move on like Aye said, you're going to have to pass by the car. There's no other way, and I don't like walking in the dark woods.

Yasushi and Takashi also learn to walk beside the minivan early - never look at the minivan - and pass by.

Even if I try not to look at the minivan, Yasushi's caution leans toward you. That would be impossible for teenagers around the age.

It was then.

It was as if Elle ran out of nowhere at such a time as to poke a gap in Yasushi's mind.

Ignoring the amazing Yasushi, Elle quietly just rushes through the dark trail at full speed.

"Hey!! What's wrong now?!?"

"I dunno!! Elle guy, I ran out of the blue without saying anything!!"

"Well, more than that, Elle, you're too fast!?"

Elle does run fast. That speed will surely be higher than that of Yasushi and Ryu, the faster legs in the high school class.

Nor did Yasushi ever see Elle run at full speed before, and she never thought her legs would be this fast.

"And let's go after him anyway!

Elle's back, disappearing beyond the darkness, is already invisible. Still, I can't leave you alone, and you guys run out after it.

That's when Yasushi's toe kicked something.

"Huh?"

I wonder what he kicked in and if he turns the flashlight light on, there's a pet bottle dropping in the soft case.

"This is El's..."

Yasushi looked familiar to me. Without a doubt, that's definitely a pet bottle that Elle is putting in the water spirits Water Elementary.

The bounce when I ran must have caused this pet bottle, which usually hangs on my hips, to fall off.

"I can't believe you didn't even notice I dropped this... Elle guy, what's really going on...?

"Hey! What's wrong, Yasushi!?"

It was Ryu and Aoi who ran out after Elle, but he returned here wondering that Yasushi was stopping.

"Is that Elle's...?

Look at the pet bottle that Yasushi picked up and Aye asks.

However, Yasushi opened the lid of the pet bottle without answering it.

Then a fluttering mass of water pops out of the inside, and the chunk of water is bounced at the feet of Po Bin Po Bin and Yang Gui a few times.

"Pi hey. Do you have any idea where Elle went?

In response to Yasushi's words, the water spirits began to move toward the one where Elle rushed to go as he sifted and shook a chunk of water a few times.

Yasushi confirmed that Aye and Ryu snorted before rushing after the water spirits.
