[Blue Archive] Abydos' Suicidal Hopeful

Lap Pillow EP.16

"...What are you doing, Hoshino-san?"

"Ah, Sora-chan~ Sora-chan, wanna come over here too? Nonomi-chan's lap is super fluffy and feels great, you know~?"

As I arrived at Abydos today, just like any other day, I saw Hoshino melting into Nonomi's lap.

"...I'll pass."

"Eh~? Are you sure? Nonomi-chan's lap is a special spot reserved for this old man, so it's not somewhere you can easily lie down, you know~?"

"...It's fine."

I'm a little tempted, but it's too embarrassing to try.

"Ehehe~ Can't be helped then! Come on, jump into this big sister's arms!"

"...No thanks."

I'd rather lie on Nonomi's lap than that.

After another eventful day, I went to Abydos the next morning as usual.

"...Ughhh...."

In a half-dead state.

"S-Sora-chan?"

"Sora, are you okay?"

"Ah... Nonomi, Sensei... Yeah, I'm fine."

It's a lie. I'm not fine at all. My head feels like it's splitting, and I want to lie down and sleep right now.

I stayed up all night trying to find out about my true name, Isis, so I'm dead tired.

I probably have terrible dark circles under my eyes right now.

So, did I find anything? If you ask,

"Isis is the second child of the sky goddess Nut and the earth god Geb, the sister and wife of Osiris, and the mother of Horus... I see... I don't get it at all."

I'd say no.

I know she's some kind of important goddess, but other than that, I'm clueless.

And most importantly,

"...But come to think of it, does knowing my true name really change anything?"

Knowing my true name didn't change anything.

It's just the name of a goddess called Isis, and it's not like knowing my true name lets me use divine powers or anything.

'Of course, there might be something I don't know...'

The problem is, I realized this fact right before sunrise, just as I was about to head to Abydos.
