Please, don't leave me alone !

Chapter 42 : End of the journey (1)

Xin Jian went to Alger Wilson.

« Hello~. I am an angel send by The Fool (but which Fool ?). He proposes to make you the bishop of His Church. Do you accept it ? »

Alger clenched his hand.

It had always been his dream to have an important position in a Church.

However, he was still reluctant to leave the Storm Church where he had passed his childhood.

Alger had to make a choice.

(Xin Jian : As a farewell, let's make others be in a dilemma...)

—————— I am the dividing line~

Xin Jian looked at Ourobouros.

Their encounter was totally unexpected, she should have lost her way a bit too much this time...

« Er... Goodbye ? I hope we'll be closer in the next timeline. »

Ourobouros nodded and left.

Xin Jian : ...

—————— I am the dividing line~

Xin Jian sat at a table.

Anderson Hood and Danitz looked at her.

« What ? Can't we drink together ? » She retorted.

Anderson just accepted that a stranger suddenly accepted to drink with them as it was natural while Danitz was forced to accept it.

Xin Jian : I had increased my alcohol resistance with Roselle...
Danitz : Dogshit !

—————— I am the dividing line~

Xin Jian walked to where the City of Silver was and saw Derrick preaching The Fool.

From afar, she compared their heights.

Then, she turned back.

Is it how it feels to be small...?

—————— I am the dividing line~

« Fors Wall ! I am your fan, can I have an autograph ? »

Fors Wall lazily signed Xin Jian's book then they chatted together.

She also visited the bounty hunter in the eastern district and was reassured about her height.

(Xio : ...
Xin Jian : Stop hitting me ! Stop hitting me ! I only said the truth !)

—————— I am not the dividing line~

At a certain card table in a certain bar, Xin Jian sat down.

She looked at the living corpses next to them then turned to Maric and the invisible Sharon.

She smiled.

« Could we play cards ? »

In response, Maric shuffled the cards and cut the deck.

In the middle of their game, Sharon had appeared and looked at them with her head in her hand.

—————— I am the dividing line~

Xin Jian looked into Reinette Tinker's eyes (but from which head ??) and declared with a solemn air.

« Reinette Tinker, our time together was short. » (So this farewell is even shorter...)

Xin Jian recalled something and turned back.

She made a thumbs up.

« Oh, and don't forget to ruin Gehrman even more before he goes to sleep. »

Then she disappeared.
