[Kuroto]
“I.........I'm fine like this.”
[Kuroto]
“I.........I'm fine like this.”
[Researcher]
“.........are you afraid? Of your past?”
[Kuroto]
“..............that's not it. I thought I'd ask that guy. He promised me after all.”
[Researcher]
“.........you mean that boy?”
[Researcher]
“However, when there are too many emotions involved, things become twisted. Due to that, you could lose everything.”
[Kuroto]
“.....................?”
[Researcher]
“...............well, fine. If that is what you want, then I will not say anything else.”
[Kuroto]
“...............could it be.........you also know me?”
[Researcher]
“....................”
[Researcher]
“I know the you from the past.........that is all.”
[Kuroto]
“The past.........?”
[Researcher]
“.........however.........”
[Kuroto]
“.........hm?”
[Kuroto]
“...............!? What.........?”
[Researcher]
“..............even though I have already abandoned this place, I am interested in seeing what you choose.”
[Kuroto]
“...............?”
[Researcher]
“If he knew, he would probably complain again.”
[Kuroto]
“.........what's that su.........”
[Researcher]
“Right now, this is just a charm. It is too trivial to be considered a blessing.”
[Kuroto]
“.........charm?”
[Researcher]
“Looks like my time has run out. I will sleep once again.”
[Kuroto]
“.........what.........?”
[Researcher]
“The next time I awake, what season shall greet me.........in this miniature garden.”
[Kuroto]
“.....................! Wait!”
[Kuroto]
“...............! He disappeared.........”
[Kuroto]
“.........kh.........seriously, who was that man.........”
[Kuroto]
“He just kept going on about things I couldn't understand. I didn't get it at all.”
[Kuroto]
“He said he could bring back my memories.....................”
[???]
“.........Kuroto!”
[Kuroto]
“.........Hanashiro.”
[Hanashiro]
“What are you doing in a place like this.........”
[Hanashiro]
“........you're covered in sweat? What on earth happened?”
[Kuroto]
“.........hm.........? Ah.........nothing, just ended up here.”
[Hanashiro]
“..............? Right, we'll have to talk about it later. For now, why don't we go back? Things have gotten a little bad.”
[Kuroto]
“.........what?”
[Hanashiro]
“Even this place isn't safe anymore. We need to hurry up and escape...............”
[Hanashiro]
“..................!?”
[Kuroto]
“.....................”
[Hanashiro]
“...............Kuroto.........understand now.........?”
[Kuroto]
“Yes, it seems like.........something is trying to force itself in now.........”
[Hanashiro]
“.........I knew it, it's that person.........we need to hurry..........................................!?”
[Hanashiro]
“.........ah.........!”
[Kuroto]
“...............? Who.........?”
[Shirofukurou]
“.....................”
[Shirofukurou]
“It's been a while. Hanashiro.........and, Kuroto.”
[Hanashiro]
“.........S-Shirofukurou.........”
[Kuroto]
“.........Shirofukurou.........?”
[Shirofukurou]
“.........indeed. I am one of the wings, the white bird. You seem well, that's good. Hanashiro.”
[Shirofukurou]
“Anyway, where is Kurotaka?”
[Hanashiro]
“.........he's here, in this tower. He'll be coming soon.”
[Shirofukurou]
“Is that so. He's not by this child's side at a time like this, what does he think he's doing?”
[Shirofukurou]
“Well, it's fine.........Hanashiro.”
[Hanashiro]
“.........what is it?”
[Shirofukurou]
“Time has run out. Fulfill your purpose.”
[Hanashiro]
“.........no.”
[Shirofukurou]
“Return this Kuroto's soul to the darkness, and save this world.”
[Hanashiro]
“No!”
[Kuroto]
“.........the world.........?”
[Shirofukurou]
“How long do you think you can be this selfish? You exist to save this world.”
[Shirofukurou]
“You are this world's hope.........the lives of all the people of this world depend on you.”
[Hanashiro]
“.........no, no! I don't care about that!”
[Shirofukurou]
“Your personal feelings are not permitted. I've told you that before.........Hanashiro.”
[Hanashiro]
“Who cares about that! I don't care about any of that at all!”
[Shirofukurou]
“...............goodness.........I've spoiled you too much.”
[Kuroto]
“.........what do you mean by save the world.”
[Kuroto]
“.........just who are you........”
[Shirofukurou]
“...............come to think of it, you've lost your memories, haven't you?”
[Shirofukurou]
“Goodness......both of you, and Kurotaka have no sense of self-awareness. If my lord saw this state of things, oh how he would lament.”
[Kuroto]
“.........lord?”
[Shirofukurou]
“The god who created this miniature garden and the two of us white and black birds, the one who left because of this world's despair.”
[Shirofukurou]
“.........which was your fault, Kuroto.”
[Kuroto]
“...............the lord..................who left this miniature garden.........?”
[Kuroto]
“Don't tell me, that guy from earlier........”
[Shirofukurou]
“........huh.........?”
[Hanashiro]
“.........huh? Kuroto.........?”
[Kuroto]
“Earlier. I met a man here who said he abandoned this place.”
[Kuroto]
“I didn't think it was possible, but he was.........”
[Kuroto]
“...............kh!?”
[Kuroto]
“Wha.........”
[Hanashiro]
“.........Shirofukurou!?”
[Shirofukurou]
“............don't tell me he.........”
[Kuroto]
“.........w-what.........?”
[Shirofukurou]
“Aah.........it can't be, my lord.”
[Hanashiro]
“Shirofukurou, what do you think you're doing, let go of Kuroto!”
[Shirofukurou]
“Why.........why? Even though our lord should have left because of Kuroto.........so why.........why is he inside him.........?”
[Kuroto]
“.........kh.........”
[Shirofukurou]
“...............why...............”
[Shirofukurou]
“.....................”
[Hanashiro]
“...............!? Kuroto.........? …......Shirofukurou.........!”
[Hanashiro]
“.........wh.........why......!?”
[Hanashiro]
“Why.........why.........!?”
[Kurotaka]
“.........Hanashiro, what happened to Kuroto!?”
[Hanashiro]
“.........ah......”
[Kurotaka]
“The space had distorted terribly.........just what happened here?”
[Hanashiro]
“.........what have you been doing up until now!? Isn't it your job to protect Kuroto!? Why weren't you here during this crucial moment!?”
[Kurotaka]
“There was a barrier put around this space, until now I wasn't able to even get close.........you still haven't found Kuroto?”
[Hanashiro]
“.........why did Shirofukurou......Kuroto.........!”
[Kurotaka]
“.........what? What happened with Shirofukurou?”
[Hanashiro]
“I don't know why, but Shirofukurou flew off somewhere with just Kuroto!”
[Hanashiro]
“Why, even though she shouldn't be able to do anything without me.........!”
[Kurotaka]
“.........what.........?”
[Hanashiro]
“I don't understand any of this, just what was she thinking..........!?”
[Kurotaka]
“.........got it, let's find out where Shirofukurou warped to at once.”
[Hanashiro]
“.........Kuroto.........”
[Kurotaka]
“Don't worry so much. You said it yourself, right? She can't do anything to him without you.”
[Hanashiro]
“But.........but, I don't know what she's thinking at all!?”
[Kurotaka]
“.....................”
[Hanashiro]
“I don't really understand, but I have a terrible feeling.........”
[Kurotaka]
“...............Shirofukurou...............”

[Shirofukurou]
“.....................”
[Kuroto]
“Uwh.........? …......this place is.........?”
[Shirofukurou]
“...............I.........”
[Kuroto]
“.........you........?”
[Shirofukurou]
“I've been thinking this whole time.”
[Shirofukurou]
“Why did my lord leave this land. Why.........did he abandon us?”
[Kuroto]
“.....................”
[Shirofukurou]
“Ever since my lord gave me this body, I've gone through great efforts to create the ideals of my lord.........”
[Shirofukurou]
“.........just how isn't this world good enough?”
[Kuroto]
“.........you.........?”
[Shirofukurou]
“When my lord was creating the world, he spoke to me. He said he wanted to see a world without war. That's why he created this miniature garden.”
[Shirofukurou]
“And then for that purpose, my lord made us birds, made the messiah, and made Kuroto.”
[Kuroto]
“.....................”
[Shirofukurou]
“........however.........the previous Kuroto offered his own body to the messiah, after that, my lord left this miniature garden.”
[Kuroto]
“.........what.........?”
[Shirofukurou]
“Without saying a word, he left this world full of despair.........because your inactivity twisted my lord's ideals.”
[Kuroto]
“.....................”
[Shirofukurou]
“Because of you, my lord abandoned this miniature garden.”
[Kuroto]
“.........that's.........”
[Shirofukurou]
“Because you were born into this world, my lord won't ever return. But, if you were gone, he may look down upon this miniature garden once again.”
[Kuroto]
“.........kh......”
[Shirofukurou]
“.........even though that's what I thought.........”
[Kuroto]
“.........wha......ngh.........!?”
[Shirofukurou]
“.........why is he here?”
[Kuroto]
“...............this is...............”
[Shirofukurou]
“.........I can see him. My lord is inside you.”
[Kuroto]
“.........kh..................you............?”
[Shirofukurou]
“I can see traces of his spirit inside of you.”
[Kuroto]
“.........where......are you looking.........?”
[Shirofukurou]
“........................my lord.........”
[Shirofukurou]
“Why are you inside of a thing like this.........?”
[Kuroto]
“...............kh.”
[Shirofukurou]
“.........why.........”
[Kuroto]
“.........hey.........?”
[Shirofukurou]
“...............I see.”
[Kuroto]
“.........hm.........?”
[Shirofukurou]
“.........then, I shall save you.”
[Kuroto]
“.........what?”
[Shirofukurou]
“I will return you to this land from inside here at once.”
[Kuroto]
“...............! Stop.........”
[Shirofukurou]
“Slowly, slowly.........as to not awake you from your dreams.”
[Shirofukurou]
“From inside here.........to bring about the cries of a baby.”
