Chapter 7: The whisper that came from nowhere...

.

The stars bloomed bunch by bunch.

Every few steps, the blurred white light shines through specially reinforced glass on the light cyan building.

The comet passed away, the stars remained, and the faint starlight enveloped the bridge.

If there is a so-called concrete expression of gentleness, it must refer to the scene in front of you.

It has been mixed in countless exquisite calculations and brought in countless accidents. After experiencing interpretation, polishing, and packaging, it will inevitably be called gentleness.

This is the stage prepared by Sayya.

In order to create such a scene, no matter who it is, is making small efforts.

Although Isabella, who brought Alicia and others here, quietly retreated to the corner at this time, I believe that she will appear in front of everyone again soon.

Lan Hua and Ai Li Xu were probably full of questions. Although they were invited to this endless void, they waited for a long time and had not seen the main owner for a long time. They could only look at the seemingly monotonous starry sea, but they still said nothing, as if nothing had happened, quietly watching the scenery that had not changed much from the moment before.

Athena and Akira seemed to know something, but they didn't say anything. They just came to the piano near the bar to evoke a slight fluctuation in this calm space. At the same time, the clear and bright singing penetrated every corner in a small and tough manner.

"It's really exciting."

Alicia, sitting on the bar, was picking up a glass full of amber liquid, shaking it casually, letting the ice cubes and the glass sing crisp sounds with each other.

As if I noticed Alicia's gaze, Isabella, who brought up another cocktail at the bar, just shook her head, then sat aside, looking at everyone's casual appearance.

"Although I still can't understand, I understand a little bit why the young lady is so persistent."

"Oh, oh, can I take this as a compliment?"

"Of course, it's just that Miss Alicia doesn't seem to care about this."

"No, I care a lot. Do you like me the same thing about the person I like?"

"Do you like it..." After a mouthful of cold wine, feeling the sweet and slightly spicy dance together, an inexplicable smile appeared on Ishabella's face, "It's undeniable that she really likes it... No! No! Or should it be said to be obsessed."

Who is she pointing to? Ishabella naturally understands, but Alicia also understands.

"It's like projecting a certain degree of emotion...is it true?"

"…Miss Alicia?"

"Of course I understand this, but have you ever heard this?" He leaned his right hand against his cheek, his blue watery eyes quietly looked at the wine glass, his delicate face with a more elaborate smile, "There are only hypocritical lies, but there are no false feelings."

"Is this a proverb?"

"No, this is just my personal thought."

"My personal thought means that is Miss Alicia's experience?"

"I like it very much."

Putting down the remaining half of the wine glass, Alicia slowly raised her head and looked at the decoration of the bar and Miss Isabella who was right across from her.

"I like that child very much. Although I know that this attachment has deteriorated to some extent, I believe her smile and the words from the deepest part of my heart."

His eyes opened slightly, as if he didn't expect to get such an answer. Suddenly, Isabella didn't know how to answer.

Sure, she knew quite a lot.

Even the [mirror composition] listed by Sayer as the top secret is more or less clear, and even the finished product buried in the Paliuo Palace is quite clear about its origin, but...

... Such sincere words cannot be obtained from that small figure.

Of course, it is impossible to tell, tell, tell, tell.

Similarly, it is completely understood, clear, and clear.

"I like the lady very much, too."

As if he was exhausted, although he wanted to sort out his words several times, wanting to make them more gorgeous or sincere, the last thing he said was only such a simple sentence.

"But, maybe not as much as you..."

"Oh, oh, if that's the case, we will be companions."

"……companion?"

"Yes, I like that child's companion."

"companion……"

Looking at Alicia right in front of me, Athena who was singing casually while playing the piano nearby, Lan Hua and Arisu who were watching the Milky Way by the window.

It was faintly as if something had been touched, in the heartstrings.

"...But I can't say anything, what the lady wants to do, even if she is a companion."

"Well, it's really exciting."

Walk slowly, holding a candlelight in your hand.

The light slowly reflects the darkness reflects the brightness.

It quietly came to everyone's side, but it did not bring loneliness.

The tranquility brought a little expectation, which made people involuntarily raise their heads and look at the vast sea of ​​stars right in front of them.

The next moment, it suddenly changed.

There was no prelude or preview, just like the afternoon thunderstorm... It came suddenly, it was amazing, and it caught people off guard.

Because, what appeared in front of everyone at this moment was a symphony--

－The symphony of steel and iron!!

The towering and huge ship emits a faint cold light. When it moves slowly, it inadvertently exudes a shocking sense of shock. Although it cannot hear the sound of its driving, when you see the oncoming posture of a ship like a giant beast, in a trance, at the end of the deep end of your ears, you can hear a faint roar.

But the scene in front of me was just the beginning.

He had no intention of giving everyone a chance to breathe, and he couldn't wait to make his debut in the next scene.

In a more rude, exaggerated and courageous manner, he forcibly climbed the stage that was occupied by the giant beast just a moment ago.

It was the moment when it hit the front of me. There were dozens of huge ships that made people wonder whether they were real. At this moment, it was like they were rushing towards me in neatly arranged steps, with a surging breath. Suddenly, the whole atmosphere became more solemn and breathing more. Even the sounds of breathing subconsciously slowed down.

And when this wave finally ended and everyone thought they could finally take a breath, the next wave of horns was shouting their pride with their dazzled fighting spirit, and appeared strongly in everyone's vision.

Take away everyone's eyes!!

"This, this is..."

Although the sound was very low and very low, it was undoubtedly reached everyone's ears, but no one gave the answer. He just raised his head and stared blankly at the scene in front of him, which was indescribable even if it was gorgeous and magnificent.

Countless ships, countless ships, I don’t know how many, there are. The giant beasts called "ships" are surging ahead, and these monsters with great power are now like tamed pets, quietly without exception...

...Submit!!

Of course they won't be them!!

It is impossible that this even bigger [Captonofu]!!

Instead, he stood straight and expressionlessly small figure not far ahead.

But surprisingly, the figure was as petite as usual, and his height was still barely lingering in his chest, but at this moment, people felt an inexplicable sense of oppression.

.

－－Chest hurts so much.－－

.

Unconsciously, the orange scarf wrinkled into a ball.

The right hand was pressed tightly on the heart, but no matter how hard it was, the oppression, the boredom, and the anxiety that could not be explained could not be relieved, but it was getting deeper and deeper...

...It seems to be getting farther and farther away, she.

"It's indeed the Marriage Day. That little guy really cares about not attending it at the beginning."

Suddenly, I felt a heavy weight on my shoulders. When I turned around, I found that it was indeed the smiling face of Senior Sister Lan Hua. Although I really wanted to tell the other party that "Senior Sister is heavier than last time", I just forgot it now. After all, this weight is really comfortable...

...It's better to talk later, yes.

.

The fire exploded brilliantly, endlessly.

.

Although there was no sound, it was just quietly letting the grand flames rise in the quiet darkness, but this was enough.

That's right, it's enough.

The figure standing in front was still standing straight and firm.
To be continued...
