[Blue Archive] Abydos' Suicidal Hopeful

Unreasonable Request EP.44

I explained everything to Hoshino.

From my body being the result of black suit's work to everything I knew.

Excluding the reason why I tried to die and the fact that this place was a game.

I didn't think it was necessary to explain those things.

And as expected,

"......"



She seemed confused by my words.

Her eyes were trembling like aspen leaves.

'...It can't be helped.'

Suddenly being told I'm an artificial human... Even I would have a hard time believing it.

'Still... it doesn't matter.'

What's important is the unreasonable favor I'm going to ask next.

"Ahh... Hoo..."

I took a deep breath to calm myself and slowly continued speaking.

"As I said earlier, black suit collaborated with Yume to create me..."

"So, I think he knows how to solve this situation."

'Say it. I have to say it.'

"So... what I want to ask is..."

I squeezed my eyes shut and blurted out,

"Can you allow me to go meet the black suit...?"

"......"

My true feelings, finally spoken.

"Sora-chan..."

But her response was,

-Slap!

A weak, but more painful than anything, slap on the cheek.

"......"

After that, we left the sea tunnel and after a long while, we managed to see the entire aquarium.

'...The silence is painful...'

Without a single word exchanged.

'That's how shocking my words must have been...'

Honestly, even I think what I said was crazy.

To seek help from the very person who drove me to the brink of death and put me in this state.

It must be something Hoshino, who can't trust bad adults, can't even bear to hear...

But no matter how much I think about it, I can't come up with any other way.

There's no place that knows more about halos... and mystics than Gematria.

The only other possibility is Sensei's adult card,

But no matter how selfish I am, I don't want to live at the cost of Sensei's sacrifice.

Especially since I plan to try to kill myself again once my halo returns.

'...Should I be satisfied with this for today?'

The reason I came this far was to make the request.

So I could say I achieved my initial goal, and I decided to be content with that for now.

"Then, shall we go back?"
