四十一 (Text/Voice Post, Japanese)

[onikui_tengu]

It's been happening a lot lately. People being returned to this city from their original worlds. Sometimes with the memories they had before, and some without.

Even I'm not counted out of that number. I can remember where I've been.

But what I want to know is the reason why; not that I expect an answer. Not from the people who would actually have it. ...Why the indecisiveness? Isn't one time good enough for you, Scientists?
Hell. I can't tell if this is something you do out of convenience, or if all you are doing is laughing at all of us.

What about you, Hunter? This must be convenient for you. You don't have to look far to find your prey anymore. ...Che.

Don't believe that you are the only one who shares that sentiment. In both meanings.

That it is a center of disasters and civil warfare.

Civil warfare?

[Voice/Japanese]

I do not know the details, but this city has been threatened by attacks from another in the past.

Its name is Accido.

[loyal_cube]

Perhaps not, but do you know how many cities are in this kingdom?

[Voice/Japanese]

[onikui-haruka.livejournal.com]

No.

The outskirts of this city are danger to travel alone in, and sometimes others have been pulled unwillingly into excursions like that. Usually not without losing their lives in the process.

...


Pulled unwillingly?

I see what you mean now by having more questions then answers.

[Voice/Japanese]

[onikui-haruka.livejournal.com]

It is exactly what it sounds like.

I had a feeling you would eventually.

[Voice/Japanese]

[loyal_cube]

But... how? Why? I can't imagine it's done without magic but I'm not sure how this world works at all. Hard enough to grasp the reality of being here.

It can only get better, right?

[Voice/Japanese]

[onikui-haruka.livejournal.com]

I do not know. It could have been something the wandering spirits were responsible for the last time, but there is no way to be certain...

...

[Voice/Japanese]

[loyal_cube]

You know, sir, if you don't believe it'll get better then there is little chance it will.

[Voice/Japanese]

[onikui-haruka.livejournal.com]

Belief and reality are two very different things.

You shouldn't forget that.

[Voice/Japanese]

[loyal_cube]

Don't worry. I promise you, I won't.

However, I rather think lightly then to tred on dark thoughts.
