A woman dressed exactly like the "Doctor" in the game, with a loose blue coat and long brown hair, put the crowbar in her hand on her shoulder, smiled at Orson, and slapped Orson very lightly. call.

"...Doctor?" "Do you still remember me, Orson. It seems that the [seal] I imposed on you at that time was not complete—but I was quite happy to hear your greeting, and I really am In some sense, there is no way to save the guy."

The woman who called herself 'Doctor' showed an embarrassed smile, and then used a crowbar to swing the 'brother' who rushed over.

"You have a tragic past of senseless violence - so what?"

The 'doctor' walked up to the 'brothers' and spoke provocatively while flexing his shoulders.

"Shut up the dead guys, the stage is left for the living to perform - both of you and me."

'Doctor' smashed the crowbar in his hand to the corner, and the barrier covered by the blood-stained iron plate collapsed, and Rosemary, who was squatting in the corner with blank eyes, reappeared in Orson's field of vision.

"rosemary……!"

Orson wanted to rush over after seeing Rosemary, but he glanced at the 'doctor' beside him.

The doctor who suddenly appeared in the soul, which he had no impression of, but gradually felt after arriving in Rhodes Island, appeared beside him in such an understatement at this time.

"Go, it's not me you should be looking at now."

The 'doctor' smiled and took a few steps back, while the 'brothers' got up from the pool of blood again and blocked Orson.

"Uh...uuuu..."

Rosemary clutched her head, those dusty memories were vaguely about to wake up, and this Ferlin kitten was trying to cover up those hellish memories again with a painful expression.

That's right, what I should focus on now is not her, but the lonely film.

Memories of the past continued to eat away at Rosemary, and even Orson could feel the pain that pierced his head through resonance.

But, even so—

"Rosemary, although it's painful, you have to face that memory."

"Facing... woo! Orson... I... I don't know..."

Rosemary wailed in pain, and those 'brothers' surrounded her again.

"How far are you going to hurt her, hypocritical guy"

"And how long are you going to imprison her here!"

puff! !

Orson dodged the 'brother''s attack and punched him in the stomach.

"This prison—even though Rosemary can hide here, what will happen afterwards! She can't stay here forever!"

Orson put on a posture, he clenched his fists, and his expression finally stopped hesitating.

There is nothing to worry about at all. Being closed here may be able to keep Rosemary away from the memories of hell in the past, but at the same time, it also means that she will stop at this moment forever.

"There is only malice outside the world, only endless torture and pain. Dehumanizing behavior can be seen everywhere, and that kind of world—Amber doesn't need to touch it at all."

"That's right! This world is cruel and fucked up, but even so—"

Orson dodged the attacks of the two 'brothers' one in front and one in the back, and kicked the leaping corpse aside.

"—There are still people yearning for the blue sky! They don't care what kind of despair they have to face, and they still spread the fire without retreating. And your protection can only make her live forever in the blankness of the past!"

In the consciousness of soul tuning, Orson has no rests, no curtain calls, and some only have his own fists.

Orson and the 'brothers' roared and shook their fists at each other. This was not a competition of fighting skills, but a competition of will and belief.

"You will abandon Amber, what will you do next, and let her wait for death alone in the ruins again?"

"No one will accompany another person for the rest of his life—"

Orson knocked away the 'brother' in front of him with a head hammer, ignoring the pain in his body, pushed the 'brother' on the left forward with his left hand, then gritted his teeth and pulled his right wrist out of the grip of the other corpse, and slammed towards him. to his corpse cheek.

"But until you muster up the courage and have the faith to go on by yourself, I will always be with you"

Orson yelled and kept breaking free from the 'brothers' behind him, but was thrown to the ground just before reaching Rosemary.

"Orson, will you... stay with me...?"

A gleam of light flickered from Rosemary's void pupils, Rosemary slowly raised her head, and saw Orson's arm stretched desperately towards her.

That's how it was at that time, this strange guy broke into his room, said that he would let him help as a recorder, and then extended his palm to himself.

"I...I dare not—I can't do anything..."

There's nothing Rosemary can do when the brothers are taken.She didn't dare to reach out to stop the researcher, so she could only hide in the corner, listening to others' comfort, trying to seal this memory.

"It's different, Rosemary. You have power, it's not cursed power, it's power that allows you to hold onto the future."

future--

Suddenly, Rosemary found that something seemed to be tightly held in her arms.

She lowered her head, and found that it was the notebook with a bunch of strange things written in it. Most of the content on it was not "important things" at all, but... it made her cherish it very much.

It was a long time since she was discovered by the rescue organization in the ruins, and then received by Rhodes Island, but Rosemary couldn't remember anything.

Although she spent less than a week with Orson, but... Rosemary didn't want to forget.

The communication with others, the experience of wandering around together, all kinds of things, Rosemary doesn't want to keep them only in a notebook, but hopes to be able to engrave them in her mind.

She used to think that she could live like a mayfly without any memory.

But after getting in touch with Orson, and after "playing around" with the boy, Rosemary finally understood.

She doesn't want to be imprisoned in the past anymore, Rosemary is looking forward to, hoping for "tomorrow", allowing herself to write down and wait for "tomorrow" with hope.

For this reason, I have to face the fear directly, and then cut off the hell of the past.

Rosemary looked at Orson, and the transparent twisted hand, which she regarded as a "curse", slowly stretched forward.

"That's right...the future—what I want is a future where I can go on with everyone—!"

The twisted hand held Orson tightly, not to twist him, simply, just to hold Orson.

"I... can't live in the past, I can't just watch the tragedy happen - it doesn't matter if I cry and leave later, it doesn't matter even if I don't dare to accept the outside world...! What I want is not blank, I can The past that is covered up, but the future that can be personally recorded!"

Rosemary stood up from the ground, she held Orson's palm tightly, and a shock wave invisible to the naked eye completely shattered the prison fixed by the metal plate.

The blood-stained cage disappeared without a trace, and outside the prison was a wheat field.

Those 'brothers' who were originally in the state of mutilated corpses gradually began to dissipate under the direct sunlight.

"It's always been me...it's always been me! It's not you who appeared in my consciousness to protect me, but me to escape the 'future', so I shackled you in this hell..."

Rosemary ran to those 'brothers' and shouted.

"It's... enough, everyone, I'm really... sorry. I won't run away anymore, so... it's really enough. At that time, you kept comforting me, and I'm still here until now. But starting today, I will try...to move forward, so...you don't have to worry about me anymore!"

Rosemary was sobbing intermittently, and those 'brothers' finally stopped howling.

Although the expressions were still unrecognizable, for no reason, Orson thought their faces were expressions of relief.

"If you've worked up the courage to move forward, Amber—no, it's Rosemary now, isn't it? Then..."

'Brother' patted Rosemary's hair lightly, then looked at Orson, half of their bodies had dissipated.

"You have to be responsible, Brother Orson."

"—"

After finishing speaking, the corpse completely disappeared, and the screams and screams that had surrounded Rosemary's body were finally replaced by the long-lost tranquility.

At the last moment, Orson seemed to see several children - young, but very mature.

"I will."

Orson nodded to the dead, and then gently hugged Rosemary who was sobbing in his arms beside him.

"I...I also wanted to be strong back then! I also wanted...to be courageous...!"

"You've mustered up your courage, Rosemary. You just need to move forward. To be honest, the outside world is actually quite interesting and not so scary."

Orson smiled and reassured Rosemary.

After a while, Rosemary finally stopped sobbing. After washing away the fear and sadness hidden in the laboratory with tears, Rosemary leaned against Orson, and the two quietly Sitting among the wheat fields.

"Orson, is this my conscious world?"

After a long silence, Rosemary asked lightly.

"Well, should we go back?"

"No...let me...stay for a while, okay?"

Rosemary grabbed the corner of Orson's clothes, and then curled up gently, lying in Orson's arms.

"Okay, let's take a good rest first, we still have a lot to do in the future."

Orson rubbed Rosemary's hair, and Rosemary's ears trembled accordingly.

Not long after, Rosemary slowly fell into a dreamland. The film girl, who had been tense all this time, was finally able to fall into a light sleep surrounded by sunshine and breeze today.

"The sleeping position is so cute, Kelsey has also slept in this position before."

"……PhD"

After the dust settled, the previous doctor with long brown hair appeared next to Orson again.

"Oh, I know what you're going to say, there must be a lot of things you want to ask me, right? But... now is not the time, Orson."

"At least tell me what happened...?"

Orson looked at the young woman in front of him, and a faint warmth and tingling pain spread in his heart.

"Kelsey's guess is basically accurate. You actually came to Terra a year longer than you knew, and during that year, it was the process of you and I getting along."

The doctor explained with a smile, and the tone was extremely nostalgic and emotional.

"In short, not many things happened in the middle, and most of the time it was just ordinary daily life. In the end, because you were seriously injured, I had to use the fusion transcription module of the sarcophagus to give you part of my "characteristics", O Sen. That's all."

"Wait, wait... It feels like I skipped a lot of things!"

"Hahaha, so it's not the right time. I can appear like this because Rosemary's oversized Originium mind power resonated with you. Simply put, it's a [miracle]. But don't worry, Orson .We will always meet in another form...Ah, it looks like it's about time."

While talking, the doctor suddenly found that he was gradually unable to maintain his body, and the miracle achieved by Rosemary's "idea" was dissipating.

"Olson, I sealed your memory because I didn't want you to go down the same path as me. "Saving the world" has to bear and abandon far more things than you imagined. But... you will eventually Still chose this path, then tell me, do you regret it?"

The doctor looked at Orson, his expression became extremely serious.
