Comprehensive Manga: Starting from an Ordinary Career

For a long time, Hiyama and Shia didn't say a word, just stood quietly and stared at the big tree in front of them.

Finally, Shia spoke up.

"Did your father come for you?"

"Yes, but he will be gone soon."

"Hehehe, my father is also very clever."

Yes, Kam went to Hiyama just to take him to see Shia.

And maybe because of the father's love for his daughter, if possible, he would like to let Hiyama and Shia be alone.

Seeing Kam's intentions, Yue deliberately provokes Kaori and Tio in a half-playful way, creating time for Hiyama and Shia to be alone.

But seeing the reaction of Kaori and Tio when they went out, the two of them must be aware of it, and they gave Shia the time to spend with Hiyama.

"Is that your mother?"

"Yes, my mother sleeps under this tree."

In the sea of ​​trees, in order to let the deceased return to nature, people will be buried under the trees after death.

The body and soul end their tasks in this world, become one with nature, nourish the sea of ​​trees in the hometown, and nourish the residents living in the sea of ​​trees, and then new life will be born again.

The demihumans are...respected by such a cycle of life.

Trees are... tombstones and symbols of the deceased.

"—I wanted to be a hero."

"Um"

Hiyama couldn't understand Shia's sudden words.

Shia looked at the big tree and continued: "—I used to want to be a person who can have a family, not just to escape and hide, but to be able to fight against all the enemies who try to take away the important people, and protect all the important ones."

"..."

"This is what my mother said. She is a person with eyes and heart like fire."

Her mother was of the weakest race, and sickly.

She is the woman with the weakest body but the strongest mind - Mona Horia.

This is the name of Shia's beloved mother.

"...That's why I gave birth to you."

"!whee."

Hearing Hiyama's words, Shia suddenly turned her head to look at him.

Hiyama looked at the tombstone with a clear respect.

——I hope that the child born will be a strong child.

In the past, her mother had told Shia that she had made such a wish.

As she wished, Shia has a strong body, and she has indeed inherited the strength of her mother's heart.

Seeing that her sweetheart recognized her, a shy smile appeared on Shia's face.

Shia's cheeks were flushed, she looked up at the big tree that replaced the tombstone, and said to her deceased mother with mixed feelings: "Mother, what you said to me is true.

Although the world is very harsh, it is sometimes very gentle."

"I found that person.

I would like to introduce to you, this is Hiyama-sama - someone important to me."

Mona once said in the past that those who can stand side by side with Shia must be in the outside world, and they must have a wonderful encounter.

Even though she doesn't have the ability to see the future, Mona's foresight is perfect.

Even now, Shia still thinks she is inferior to her mother.

Will I be able to become a woman as beautiful, elegant and powerful as my mother one day? It seems quite difficult to achieve such a goal.

But even so, she was in some ways a little closer to her mother.

"Me, my father and the Bunnymen - we've become heroes."

If Mona was still alive, what kind of expression would she look like? Would those fiery eyes be more excited and flashing, or would she show a troubled smile, I hope they don't do anything dangerous? Thinking of her old mother, Shia squinted. eyes, and then—"Thank you."

"Hey Mr. Hiyama"

Hearing the sudden words, Shia looked towards Hiyama, but saw Hiyama's eyes fixed on Mona's big tree, so she knew that those words were not addressed to Shia, but to Mona.

"I climbed up from the abyss, held the consciousness of being the enemy of the world, and started a journey of the two."

"Although I'm sure that even if it's just the two of us all the time, we can overcome all obstacles...but it will not be as happy as it is now."

"My journey with Yue, my heart, my way of life can become: colorful, no doubt thanks to your daughter."

"Mr. Hiyama..."

Shia was speechless.

Hiyama smiled slightly, and thanked the mother of the girl he loved again.

................."Thank you for giving birth to Shia."

Shia looked up at the sky, because if she didn't, she couldn't hold back the tears in her eyes.

The two spent a peaceful and warm time under Mona's big tree, and even the pure white thick fog that tempted people to lose their way seemed to be gently wrapping the two of them.

The comforting silence ended again with Shia's speech.

"That... Mr. Hiyama."

"Um"

"Thank you, you've done so much for me, I can't thank you enough... thank you so much."

Save a family, travel with her, answer her wishes, and fight against the country.

They guard each other's backs, give their lives to each other, and die together.

Hiyama trusts Shia...so much.

Then, in front of my mother, we spent this time together.

Shia's thankful words made Hiyama look away in embarrassment.

"...Yeah, thank me so much. I'm also looking forward to your performance when we conquer the remaining big labyrinth."

"Hehe, generally speaking, you should say "You're welcome" at this time

That's right"

Hearing what Hiyama said, Shia smiled softly, but immediately.

He looked at Hiyama again with a worried expression on his face.

"What do I have to do to repay Mr. Hiyama?"

"If you want to thank you, you have already thanked you just now."

"It's just a verbal thank you, I want to repay the kindness in a more tangible way.

Mr. Hiyama, what can I do to make you happy... As long as Mr. Hiyama speaks, anything can be, really anything can be... Nine"

Chapter two hundred and forty-eight alone?

Shia wiggled her rabbit ears and pressed her body against Hiyama.

She stood beside Hiyama and looked at him affectionately, her breath was so hot that it seemed to burn people.

Although Hiyama knew exactly what Shia meant, he did not respond to it, instead he said with a wry smile: "...you just need to smirk without thinking, you are our pistachio, right?"

"What, you say that people have no brains! You clearly said in front of the emperor that I am very important to you, hug me tightly and say that! Then just jump at me! Please watch your words and expressions!"

"It seems that I need to have a good discussion with you about what kind of image I have in your heart."

Shia puffed out her cheeks to express her dissatisfaction, but immediately lowered her head again, and her rabbit ears drooped as if they had lost their strength.

At this moment, Shia, who was looking up at the sky, saw light appearing in the fog above.

"Nine Twenty Seven"

It is a phenomenon that a part of the fog becomes thinner by chance, and the moisture in the air is refracted by the moonlight.

"Mr. Hiyama, Mr. Hiyama.

Can you come with me?"

"Uh alright."

Shia flapped her rabbit ears and happily started to climb up the tree.

Hiyama also stepped on tree holes and branches and followed neatly.

They came to the top of Mona's big tree.

Generally, there should be thinner branches near the top of the tree, but the branches there are complicated and tangled because of multiple branches, forming a very comfortable area to sit up.

"We bury our mother here because it's my mother's favorite place."

"I see, this is like a secret base."

Hiyama and Shia sat side by side on a thick branch on the top of the tree that could accommodate both of them.

"Look at Mr. Hiyama, you can see a rare sight from here!"

"... oh oh oh, this view... is really dreamy."

The haze is made by the flow: very thin, and then a vast sea of ​​clouds can be seen.

The fog just reached the heights of Hiyama and Shia, and above it was clear and fog-free.

And the moonlight sprinkled on the foggy sea, twinkling, showing a dreamy scene.

That scene can be said to be a pure white sea surface scattered with precious stones.

"It's a very rare phenomenon and a mother's treasure.
