Higawari teni ～ Ore wa Arayuru Sekai de Musou Suru

The event began 'as planned'.

'Master Allen........'

Oh, Serena.

It seems to be a coincidence that they met each other by chance, but in fact it was predestined.

They were destined to meet in this corridor after school on the sixth day.

Ayana and Ituna sat down so that Ituna could move at any time, while Cianne kept a close eye on Prince Ale's rear.

''Excuse me........''

Wait!

Prince Ale grabbed Mistress Selina's arm forcibly as Prince Ale was about to walk past her side.

''Ouch........!

Selina!

Ayana screams at Prince Ale's brutality.

Ituna ran a spark in her crisp pigtails, but she was too hesitant to move to involve Selina.

As for Sianne, she still doesn't move with a stern look on her face, as if she considers her life to be in no danger.

''Serena, do you want me to apologize to you?

You can't. I've already been to Renmi-san...

It's not for Renmi. It's for me.

Everyone was stunned by the unreasonable language derived from Prince Are's own private theory.

I was also heartbroken because of your abuse of Renmi. If you apologize to Renmi, then it is inevitable that you will also apologize to me.

I'm afraid not!

Alright, Miss Selina, well said!

.........Kohon.

Prince Ale's eyes narrowed and glowed swiftly.

''........Refuse?　Did I hear wrong?

'No, sir, as I said. I will never apologize to Master Allen!

What?

Mistress Selina's face contorts in pain as the power is caged in Prince Ale's hands.

Still with a strong will, she turns to Prince Ale and says to him.

''Renmi-san said that she was hurt by what I did. That's why I only apologized for that. But you just think that if you talk to people in a selfish way, they will follow you. I would never bow to such a gentleman!

Let me tell you something.

Prince Ale rages.

'Get your hands off Selina, Prince Fool!　I won't allow it to go any further!

He stuck his index finger at Prince Ale with a bicep, as if he was going to send the ray of light that threatened Princess-san flying.

Still, not before he actually shot.

''How rude of you to point your finger at me, Prince!

'The prince what?　I'm still a demon king!

The tension between Ayana and Prince Ale's air is making Ituna and Sianne nervous.

''Let me go!　Please let go!

Mistress Selina, unable to endure the pain, tries to pull Prince Ale's hand away from her.

Little did she know that this would anoint the prince's anger.

''Humph, without being told, you and others!

Prince Ale let go of Miss Selina's hand as if to throw it.

And with that momentum.

''........eh.''

Miss Selina heads for the downstairs.

Falling.

She falls.

So does Ayana, who should be able to move with blinding speed.

So does Ituna, who should be able to grab Serena's hand if she used her lightning legs.

And Sianne, who should be able to help her by moving at high speed without needing to use her contraction.

For some reason, they don't go to stop Selina from falling.

It's as if they've forgotten that they have that power.

None of them can stop Selina from tumbling down the stairs.

Finally, at the same time as a dull sound is heard around the landing with a gurgle, Selina's fall stops completely.

''Selinaaaa!''

It was Ayana who let out a grief-stricken cry.

She ran down to Serena, who was limping, as if the gold bondage from earlier was a lie.

While hesitating, Ituna and Sianne also followed.

''I........don't know. I don't know!''

Prince Ale was the only one who pretended it wasn't there and quickly left the place.

'Selina!　Selinaaaaah!

Ayana's screams will forever be a tree spirit on the stairway landing........

The event was projected on my laptop.

This is a situation that just happened in reality right now, but I couldn't bring myself to look ahead and closed the display with a slam.

'I see...'

To conclude, the scene where Miss Selina dies in an accident didn't exist in the events that I reviewed.

At the time of my investigation, there was no definite future, and it was waiting for the event to be automatically generated by the will of the stars.

In other words, I didn't know what was going to happen until I opened the lid.

And this is the actual event that occurred, the accidental death of Duchess Selina-Bronchneige.

I see, it's a bit forced, but I can understand it as a development where Prince Are blocked and ended his relationship with the heroine.

In the original story, it would have only been a one-sentence event, but now it's finally happening.

We leave the janitor's office and head to the infirmary.

Sure enough, Ituna and Sianne were pacing right and left in front of the door with sad expressions on their faces.

''Sakahagi-san!''

Sacagawea I'm sorry.

Yeah.

I tapped them both on the shoulder and went into the infirmary.

On the bed lay Miss Selina with a bandage on her head.

Ayana was holding her slender hand as if in prayer.

I don't know if she noticed my presence, but Ayana blurted out a few words.

"Selina fell down the stairs and--

I know.

When I interrupted her, Ayana glared at me with a devilish look on her face.

''Nah.......why are you so calm!

You need to calm down first.

I went around to the other side of the room with Ayana and took the pulse of Miss Selina's neck and wrist.

Seeing my calm handling of the situation, Ayana-chan got even more irritated, and hit the wall with the gun.

''Kuh ... if only I hadn't hesitated to shoot at that time!

I can't help but offer comfort here.

Sighing, I tell her the reality.

'If Ayana had shot the prince, Selina would have fallen down the stairs. That guy was a given.

What do you mean, we have to do what we have to do?

In the first place, why didn't any of you save Selina from falling down the stairs in the first place?

Well, that's...

Yes, that's just not natural in that event.

It shouldn't have been possible.

''The three of you that were there. All of them had the specs to do it, but they didn't try to stop Selina from falling. No, they couldn't stop it.

I shook my head as I finished checking on Miss Selina's condition.

'It was fate, Ayana. It was fate that Selina would fall down the stairs. That's the only part I can't change.''

Ayana's gaze on me grew cold to no end.

''........What's that? Is that what you're trying to tell me, that it's fate and I should give up?

Who said that and when?

That's what I'm talking about!　

When Ayana finally started to cry, I tried my best to say calmly.

'Yes. I told you.　Even the Grim Reaper can't kill that boy.

...What?

I grinned at Ayana, who looked away with tears in the corners of her eyes.

"Don't worry. Serena will recover........I made sure she did.

Mistress Selina regained consciousness soon afterwards.

After reassuring Ituna and Cianne of the results, I walked down the hallway to return to the janitor's office.

'What did you do?'

I was called out from behind there.

When I turned around to look over my shoulder, the one standing in front of me was Ayana.

''Don't tell me you can use magic to bring a dead person back to life?''

No, I'm not a fan of faith-based magic. I can't even raise the dead, let alone heal a scratch.

In my case, I'll be relying on my cheat ability to heal others.

For example, since this is a game-imitating other world, I could revive Miss Selina who died on the console.

Or I could have enabled the immortality setting to prevent Miss Selina from dying in the first place.

But my move this time was a little different.

''Selina-Bronchneige died by accident without waiting for the graduation ceremony.''

According to this sentence, "The Will of the Stars" followed this sentence and caused the events to add up: "Serena falls down the stairs and hits the back of her head by Prince Are, and dies of a brain hemorrhage.

No, it was supposed to happen.

'Then how on earth........'

I'm just rewriting the fate of the world, no, I'm just rewriting the narrative text.

Take the laptop out of the item box, and then cancel sleep mode. He turns the display towards Ayana and points to the relevant part.

'Look here. What does it say?

"Well... 'Selina-Bronchneige had an accident before the graduation ceremony, but it wasn't anything serious...'...?

'That's what I'm talking about. If you're saying that this other world works the way the game does, then we can just rewrite the entire game data.

What I did was plain and simple.

I re-wrote the game data that I dropped on my computer once, and reinstalled it on the world side again. That's all I had to do.

All that's left to do is follow the text and let "The Will of the Stars" regenerate the events as before.

It's a secret technique that makes use of the unique structure of this other world.

Isn't there such a thing as a "convenient development?

What's going on here? Is it that thing where the main character conveniently awakens to his powers?

Yeah, that's it.

As I thought, or rather, I don't know, Ayana is very good at this type of story.

It's because the 'will of the stars' fills in the blanks of the world.

'The Will of the Stars'?　Blank?

The 'will of the stars' is like the will of the world. That's what it's all about. The gaps between scenes in a drama are the gaps between scenes that are never described.

Ayana nodded, "Hmmm.

I probably wouldn't be able to understand this story, even if Ituna or Sianne heard it.

'For example, suppose there was a world based on a game in which the heroes go to defeat the Demon King. Furthermore, the end of the game is determined only by the successful defeat of the king. But in that case, there's no description in the world system, so the "star's will" makes up some of the developments between the present and the ending. Weapons and armor needed to defeat the demon king, meeting friends, items to get to the demon king's castle, bosses to be defeated ... all these things will appear in front of the brave man 'conveniently'.

Ayana sweated profusely with an indescribable face.

''Well you don't think that's the true nature of convenience developments in other worlds?''

It's standard equipment for cheat heroes. That 'hero-correction' thing...

That thing is a seemingly unbeatable cheat ability, but there's a huge price to pay.

Well, I don't want to talk about it now because it's not relevant.

The same goes for the man who defeated you. I'm sure you're not the only one who was weak, but you were able to beat you, too.　That's because, in the end, when the hero is summoned to defeat the Demon King, his fate is already decided. It really is a common occurrence. The mysterious powering up of a brave man is.

When Ayana heard this, she looks down sadly.

''No way.

Why?

Because the world decides!　If that's the case, then I'm........oh!

'Yes, so that's what I mean when I say I rewrote my destiny. If you don't like it, you can change it yourself. It's not the end result.

He grinned at her, making a gesture like he was writing letters in the air with a pen.

Then Ayana shouted as if she noticed something.

'Then you should have made sure the accident itself didn't happen!

That's the whole point. I just wanted to see what was going to add up.

Otherwise, it wouldn't have been worth it for me to stay for an extended period of time to fulfill my pledge.

''Ugh you're still the worst!

This way of putting it, I think I've offended Ayana, as expected.

But I also have my reasons.

I'm not going to be able to say that the event never happened, and after the graduation ceremony, do you think Serena can truly feel safe?　'You're going to live with the fear that your own accidental death event might happen someday,' all the time.

Uh. I don't think that's a good idea if you explain it to me later.

I don't know about that one...

Even if an ordinary person were to say, "I erased the event that was supposed to happen, so I'm relieved now," it would still leave me absolutely uneasy. Even if this is the truth of the world, it is meaningless if we don't understand and accept it.

Not only humans, but all intelligent life forms are creatures that can only believe what they want to believe.

Rather than trying to explain that the accident didn't happen, it's better to just say that it didn't happen. Rather than explaining that the accident happened, it would be more convincing to say that we survived the fate of death thanks to everyone else.

That's true but it's not the truth.

I told Ayana, who was biting down weakly, the words I always tell myself.

'It's just my opinion, but what's important is conviction. What's important is not what others say about you or the truth of the world beyond human knowledge, but what's important is that you accept it within yourself. What matters is whether you can accept it within yourself and be convinced by it.

After a short period of silence, the downcast Ayana muttered to herself.

''I'm still not........convinced......about the ending that brave girl had to face.

Of course. That's why you're here, isn't it?

As if she had something on her mind, Ayana looked up.

"I'm not convinced of my own fate either.

I'm doomed to keep touring every different world.

I don't like it, but this is beyond the level that I can manage by rewriting the world's data.

I'm still not convinced.

That's why I'm going to fight.

Ayana wants to say something, but I don't want to sound too preachy either.

So I give her one last piece of comforting advice.

'Yeah, yeah, just in case you're wondering... the reason why such a compulsion worked is because this other world is so small and has so much excess energy, and because this is a game imitation other world. The other world that Ayana was reincarnating in is different. So it's up to Ayana whether or not she can get rid of the hero's correction from now on.

After saying that much, I turned on my heel.

The graduation ceremony is tomorrow. If everything goes according to the scenario I've written, my graduation from this other world will be tomorrow.

So this will be the last time I'll have the opportunity to talk to Ayana at leisure.

Ryoji-kun, you're so sneaky.

I'm going to pretend I didn't hear the last muttering.

I feel like if I ask him out now, he'll come to my wife, but that's because that's really not fair.
