I'm not a hero, but I didn't say I couldn't beat you.

"So, how will you choose? I haven't heard the story after you woke up. Can you tell it to me?"

"I……"

NO.15 was stunned for a moment, then recalled his short but warm memory.

"After I woke up, I lost most of my memory. I only retained the most basic cognition and the unfinished miracle seal. Therefore, my freedom was restricted. For a long time, Living in a hospital ward on the border.”

"It sounds a little uncomfortable."

"Well, maybe, but actually, I feel pretty good."

NO.15 Recalling the past, it was obviously just a simple daily life with no highlights, but unknowingly, it made him smile.

"Normally there is nothing to do, but they allow me to use electronic devices and read books. Although the federal guardians basically do not communicate with me due to limited responsibilities, Mr. Ful and Mr. Haci often come to see me. chat."

"Although Mr. Furr is much younger than Mr. Hartz, he is usually calm and does not look like a student in his 20s. Mr. Hartz is just the opposite. He is obviously not young, but he acts like a big child. But everyone likes him very much, although sometimes I don’t understand what he means.”

"But there are occasional exceptions. For example, if Mr. Furr and Mr. Harts come together, their dialogue will become very interesting, it will feel like...well, cross talk, I have seen this, it is like cross talk It's just as fun. But once they encounter something important, they immediately become calm and extremely serious."

"There is also a mysterious containment object, Mr. Slate Man, who always appears suddenly from the darkness, but Mr. Black is a very gentle man. I only woke up for a month, but they all took good care of me."

"They all sound like good friends."

"Friend... friend...?"

NO.15 was stunned for a moment, and finally said with a smile.

"Well, that's right! They are all my very good friends."

"That's it, that's fine."

Audrey seemed to be relieved, and her expression relaxed.

"Actually, I have been worried. After all, you are the result of an illegal experiment. What if you are treated unfairly after you wake up, or they have no intention of giving you human rights. Or, what if you are treated unfairly after you wake up? What if I hate the world, but now I feel relieved."

Audrey touched NO.15's head and said happily.

"Even though it didn't take long, you did get to know the world and make friends. I'm very happy that you really followed my last message based on you to pursue your own life."

"Last... message?"

Even now that his memory is gradually recovering, NO.15 still cannot recall the content of this message.

"Don't worry, you will know soon. So, have you made a choice now?"

"I……"

He is not ignorant. In fact, most of the information related to his investigation has been opened to him. He also knew that his friends were running for it.

And now that he had awakened his greatest enemy, he should do something.

NO.15 took a deep breath and made a decision.

"I want to help my friends, even if Mr. Ful once thought that part of my personality may still be affected by the [Savior], but I firmly believe that this is my own choice."

"They want to protect the world and fight against those disasters, so I will help them achieve this. And -"

NO.15 raised his head and said firmly.

"It doesn't matter if this is a false wish, but because you want me to help more people, I'm going to do it."

"Actually...that wish is not entrusted to you..."

"I know."

NO.15 nodded.

"But no one stipulates that you can't imitate other wishes, right?"

"Is that so...don't you blame me? I put so much pressure on you, and even took away the few memories of your past without your consent. You must be very lonely when you wake up again. "

"So lonely……"

NO.15 grabbed his long golden hair, and then looked at the bright hair color in his hand.

It was the same as what he saw in the records, exactly the same as that [Hero].

It is a warm color.

"Actually, it's okay, because I was awakened by Fuer. That person's miracle is very heart-warming."

Audrey gently took his hand and combed his neat and messy hair.

And NO.15 is quietly waiting for the completion of all this.

"So, even if your wish is based on someone who can inherit the name of [Savior]. At the same time, you hope that I can get rid of his shadow and become an independent person, but-"

He raised his head and said confidently.

"Fuer told me that my miracle is a plurality of superimposed prayers. It is because of the desire to protect you that my brother sent me out of the deep sea of ​​death. So I think I want to protect others." Your wish must be approved by him."

"Although until now, my miracle still hasn't taken shape yet."

"Pfft...hahahahahaha!"

Seeing NO.15 change from being sworn to a somewhat embarrassed look, Audrey couldn't hold it back and couldn't help but laugh out loud, which actually made NO.15 show a rare embarrassed look.

"Don't you realize it yet? Your imprint has already taken shape!"

She smiled and pointed at the light in NO.15's chest.

NO.15 gently covered it with his palm. Obviously he could only be regarded as a projection of consciousness now, but he could clearly feel his own heartbeat, as well as those he had seen, Fuer and Hartz. , Blake, they are exactly the same, warm light.

"Now that the blessing from [her] has come, are you ready?"

"…………"

Of course he knew that this was not preparation for battle.

But say goodbye.

However, even though he was reluctant to give up, he still responded.

He wanted to be the [Hero] she hoped for.

"Well, I'm ready!"

NO.15 wiped the corners of his eyes with his arm, and then said confidently.

"Then, here, I will return all your memories to you, and do what you think is right!"

Countless points of light and countless scattered memories floated from Audrey's body, turned into stars in the sky, and then returned to their origins.

Then, for the last time, she straightened his collar and watched him get up.

As the vision was gradually shrouded in light, NO.15 knew that it was time to leave.

He saw Audrey smiling softly, waving to him, and softly saying goodbye.

"Farewell, ■■."

This time, goodbye for real.

When all the memories from No. 15 return, she can no longer maintain her independence. Maybe it won't be long before she will become part of this endless wave.

However, he will say goodbye with a smile, because this is her wish.

"Farewell, Audrey."

NO.15 closed his eyes.

"Farewell, my mother——"
