Then, I will leave too, and then, go to the next memory.

"...Are you leaving?" the young man asked in a low voice.

"Well, then, goodbye." I waved my hand and said.

"See you."

The "cave" has been formed in front of me, as long as I step into it, I can reach the next shore.

What will be there?I have no idea.

After all, since when did I repeat this kind of work over and over again?And why did you embark on this journey?

……have no idea.That kind of thing has long been forgotten.

However, there is still one thing that is clearly reflected in my mind.

I am looking for a "something".

That is a very, very important "something".It was for that "thing", myself, that I walked in recklessly.

To be honest, I'm kind of tired of it.

Countless times of life and death, countless times of love and hate, countless times of joy and anger, countless times of hope and despair.

Cause and effect, crime and punishment, reincarnation and return.Killing and redemption are repeated over and over again, but the road seems to be endless.

Already, enough?

When I saw the boy, I, who had nothing, felt "longing" for the first time.

Want to change all this.

I see, is this your wish?

"I've changed my mind." I stopped, turned around, and faced the boy.

"...What?" The young man slowly raised his head, and white light slowly lit up in his cloudy eyeballs.

"Aren't you willing to end like this? But, there is nothing you can do about it. Because you are too weak, you can't protect everyone, and you can't protect your sister either."

"Ah..." The boy's throat was throbbing, but he couldn't say a word.

"So... do you want to exchange?"

"……what?"

"Exchange everything you have, and then change everything." I said calmly, looking into his eyes.

"But... I have nothing."

"You have it. Your life, your soul, your destiny, your memory, your desire, your emotion, everything, everything, give it to me." Slowly, I bloomed smiled.

"...If, in this way, she can be saved." The boy said in a low voice.In the already desperate soul, the flame of hope was once again ignited.

"Then, it's established like this." I gently hugged his head, and kissed his blood-stained right eye tenderly.

"!!!"

"This is the proof of the establishment of the contract. From now on, no matter how far or how many years we are apart, we will always stay together and never separate." I whispered the content of the contract.

The boy showed a look of astonishment.

"Don't look at me like that, because this is also part of the contract. Then, goodbye, I look forward to seeing you and me again. At that time..."

I smiled slightly.

"Everything will be as you wish."

================================================

Had another dream.

Although I can't remember the content of the dream clearly, I always feel very nostalgic.

If there really is something in the past life in this world, it probably feels like that.

"Yoho, I'm the one who came to visit you today." Sophia pushed open the door of the ward, put the fruit basket on the counter beside her, and sat down in front of the bed with a smile.

"Oh." I replied lightly.

"Really, why don't you give me some feedback? I came here to see you." Sophia sighed.

"Oh."

"Well, in terms of benefits, you've almost recovered, right? You've encountered a witch and survived. You're really lucky. Have you ever thought about buying lottery tickets or something? Horses are okay too?"

This time I didn't answer, and looked out the window silently.

A week has passed since the witch attack.

In fact, the appearance of the witch this time caused surprisingly little damage.Apart from the Void Beast's riot and the accidental injuries of some students, the most severely damaged is the star system that supports the operation of the whole school.Because of the fundamental damage, it may take a long time for it to return to its original function.Because of this, it has become extremely difficult to track the traces of the witch.

Chapter 1 After the event

In addition, the big explosion caused by me in the end erased all traces of possibility. In the end, the school concluded that the two witches died together, and gave up the continued pursuit (and could not be traced). Instead, the focus is on rebuilding the campus.

The location where I was found was in a small forest not far from the shelter.It is said to be a small forest, but in fact, the surrounding area is full of potholes and traces of witches.The investigators determined that it was the place where the witch who attacked the academy had been, and I didn't bother to tell them that it was actually a sign of my fall, so I simply let them misunderstand it like this.When I was discovered, I was covered with burn marks all over my body, and the deepest hole even penetrated my heart. Even the doctor said that it was a miracle that even a high-ranking mortal could survive such injuries.However, only I know what happened.

In order to be able to fight against that guy, I completely gave up suppressing the power of the witch, and let the body develop irreversibly towards the body of the witch. Although I re-sealed it later, it also caused a certain part of the body to change.

The little finger of the right hand.

Although it still looks like an ordinary person on the outside, its inside is completely the structure of a witch. Probably, even if all the weapons from all over the world attack it together, it will be difficult to leave a trace on it.To be honest, I don't know whether this is a good thing or a bad thing. Now that the power of the witch has completely disappeared, if such power can be left behind, it may come in handy sometime.But on the other hand, does this also prove that I have gradually deviated from the human way?

The scars from the previous battle with the witch still remained. In fact, most of the witch's power slowly replenished by the body was also used for repairs in this area.Although it has been suppressed as much as possible, at most it can only ensure that the injury does not continue to spread. If you want to heal, I don’t know how long it will take. During this period, unless you ignore the deterioration of the wound, use No more witch power.

After confirming that I woke up, the investigators from the academy came to ask me a few questions, because various evidences showed that I had close contact with the witch and survived.My explanation for this is that I did see a witch, but I passed out instantly, and I didn't know anything after that.

The investigators nodded and finally accepted the answer.It could be seen that they were still a little puzzled. After all, in just a few minutes, two witches appeared in the academy successively. If it was a coincidence, it was too coincidental.It's strange to think that two witches who haven't appeared a few times in billions of years actually appeared at the same time, and they even started fighting.Unless, in this academy, there was a witch hidden from the beginning.

This kind of conjecture is too horrifying and unbelievable. In comparison, my answer seems much more reasonable. Yes, everything is just a coincidence. I happened to see the witch, and I happened to survive.In addition, it can be seen that the witch seems to be looking for something, so she didn't kill her, which provides more evidence for my statement.

"Phew, then, today's visit ends here." Sophia put down the storybook in her hand and stretched her waist.

I nodded: "Thank you for your hard work."

"It's nothing, and I came here with a purpose. You don't know how much attention is being paid to you by the outside world."

"Me? Why?" I asked wonderingly.

"You know how they describe you? 'Witness of the Witch', 'Last Survivor'."

"What's the matter with that strange title, I said it was just luck." I sighed.

"It's good luck and strength, but it is undeniable that you are the only one among all the people who saw the witch at close range and still survived. When everyone was frightened by the witch's aftermath , only you rushed forward. Ah, in ancient times, you might have been called a hero, even if you were awarded a noble medal, it would not be an exaggeration."

"So, who rushed up." I sighed deeply.Although it is true, it is impossible for me to admit it even if I am killed, especially in the current situation where I am already suspected, it is even more impossible, "What kind of hero...Obviously, nothing can be protected."

With his right hand, he firmly grasped the bed sheet.

Obviously Andrea is right in front of me, but I can't do anything, I can only watch her being taken away.

What is the difference between me like this and before?

Sophia didn't notice my abnormality, and stood up from the chair: "Well, I'm relieved to know that your spirit is not bad, everyone is very worried about you, so come back quickly... Otherwise, I will suffer No one. Apart from you, no one really can control that group of live treasures."

"……yes."

"Ah, there is one more thing to say about Andrea."

"!!!" I pricked up my ears, and my eyes locked on her immediately.

"Are you only so excited when you hear about her... Unfortunately, there is no new news."

"What does that mean?" I asked in a low voice.

"It means that neither the academy nor the Rockefeller family have issued any statement on Andrea's disappearance, as if it never existed from the very beginning."

"Are you kidding me!" I couldn't help roaring out, "Obviously Andrea was abducted, but they pretended it never happened????"

"After all, compared to the witch, the life and death of a student is nothing at all, right? Even if she is the princess of the Rockefeller family." Sophia said calmly, "No one knows when the witch will attack again, so the search Work can only be postponed later."

"These idiots!" I was very angry, "Can't they see it! The witch is here for Andrea! If you don't get her back, worse things will happen!"

"Even if you say that, do you have any reason? Besides, even her own Rockefeller family didn't say anything, so it's even more difficult for the academy to intervene." Sophia shrugged and said.

I was speechless for a moment, not knowing what to say: "...Sorry."

"It's my side who should apologize. I didn't bring any good news. Take a good rest and don't worry that someone will disturb you. Because the principal and the rumored 'burial girl' have done it for you. "

"Principal? Charlotte?" I froze for a moment.

"Charleau? That's it. Is that what you called her? She has been guarding the door since I came here, and she doesn't seem to have left at all."

"……Hey?"

"Sure enough, as long as I'm with you, there will never be any news. If you have a chance, tell me how you and that person met, but take a good rest today." Sophia closed the door , the peace of the past was restored in the ward.There seemed to be some movement at the door, but it disappeared quickly.

I was silent for a while, then lay back on the bed again.What is reflected in the eyes is the unchanging ceiling, and even the gaps in it have been counted.Even though I wanted to rush out immediately, I forced myself to stay here.

Because now I can't do anything.

"You are much calmer than I imagined." Meng Qingling's voice reached my ears.

I, who was familiar with the elusiveness of dreams, would no longer be frightened by such a small change, but replied indifferently: "Why are you here?"

"Come and visit you, in case you are overwhelmed. But it seems that the timing is not right. If I knew it, it would be when you eat. I heard that the food in the canteen of the hospital inside the college is quite good. It's a pity. .” Meng sighed.

I was a little speechless: "Are you here to see me or to eat?"

"I have both, but the most important thing is to comfort you to prevent you from being too sad."

"I'm not sad."

"You have."

"I said no, it's not."

"You have."

"...Are you done yet?"

"People are creatures that cannot see themselves." Meng said self-consciously, "Only when they hug each other can they feel each other's warmth. If you keep staring at the front, you will only ignore your feet."

"……what do you want to say in the end?"

"You're tired. Not just physically, but also mentally. Since before, you've been forcing yourself to fight, and as a result, you can't win anything."

"You want to say, I did it on my own?"

Meng shook her head: "What I mean is, you don't need to feel guilty. Cause and effect, reincarnation and reincarnation, everything is a pre-destined fate, but what you do is like trying to forcefully break these laws Similarly, to use the words of those cultivation novels, it is "defying the sky". But the real "defying the sky" is not as simple as writing. Even if the process is changed, the final result cannot be changed. Andrea is In this way, even if you are not held back by the witch, even if you defeat the Black Feather Sect, she will be taken away for other reasons. This is fate, the cause that has been buried long ago, but it is time to reap the results."

"..." I couldn't understand, but I could understand what she was talking about.

"Even if you are a witch, there are things you can't do. You should understand this truth the most, right?"

"Are you trying to persuade me to give up?"

"Of course not!" Meng's style of painting suddenly changed, instantly changing from a nun persuading others to be kind to a seductive little devil.She smiled evilly, showing her small canine teeth, "Everything before is an unchangeable dead end. But the next thing is our turn! No 998, no 98, as long as the customer is willing to pay a For a small price, no matter if it is Andrea Wang Delia Li Delia, we will take her home!"

Chapter 2 Recovery

"Are you serious?" I asked, looking intently into her eyes.

"...Well, I'm just trying to comfort you. Only God can do everything. Have you ever seen a nun do God's work?" Meng shrugged and said, "I can only hand over all the conditions to God. Here you go, and you decide what to do."

"You said earlier that the script was written, meaning you knew these things were going to happen?" I asked.

"Probably. Although I can know the result, I still don't know the details." Meng replied truthfully.

"...you, what exactly are you?" Although I have been puzzled more than once in my heart, it is the first time to ask directly.Now that I think about it, her behavior seems to have been foreshadowed long ago, and every hint she gives can come in handy in just the right place, even the witch...

"It's just a little nun." Meng replied with a smile, "Don't worry, I will definitely stand by your side until the contract is completed, because this is the oath I made to God."

Her words were so natural and believable that I couldn't find any point of refutation.For priests, swearing to God is probably the heaviest vow, right?In other words, does God really exist in this world?The god who can make her call herself a nun should at least be at the level of a witch.Perhaps, it could be even higher.

Do you always feel that you have been involved in something bad?

"All in all, come on. If you use the game to describe it, now you have entered a new major event point, and every branch you face may affect the ending. Will it be a BAD END or a HAPPY END? , It's really exciting." Meng smiled and jumped off the hospital bed.

"Hey, are you leaving?" I subconsciously reached out to stop her.

"Well, is there anything else?" Meng put her hands behind her back, turned around on the spot, bent down to look at me and said with a smile.
