I Have Crossed Over, but You Are The Second Week?

Subaru called Beatrice's name strangely. Beatrice had been staring at him from the very beginning, which made him a little confused about what was going on. He had been discussing the contents of the novel and his thoughts before. , but now he feels that the atmosphere is starting to become a little strange.

"Pleiades……"

This was the first time Beatrice called Subaru's name, at least for Subaru, it was the first time he heard Beatrice call his name.

Usually, Beatrice always refers to Subaru as you, the annoying guy, and so on. He has never been called by his name at all, so when he was suddenly called by his name, Subaru still felt a little uncomfortable.

On the other hand, Beatrice, who called Subaru's name, opened her mouth, wondering if she should say what was in her heart.

She wanted to tell Subaru everything, the meaning of the existence of this forbidden library, the meaning of her guarding the forbidden library, the meaning of waiting for 400 years, everything to tell Subaru, and then she wanted to know, wanted to know how Subaru thought this thing.

And under this impulse, Beatrice really spoke out, guarding this forbidden library of her final contract with Echidona, waiting for the 'that person' that the other party said, everything and everything. All said.

"what are you thinking?"

Beatrice asked hesitantly. She wanted to know what Subaru thought, how Subaru viewed this matter, and whether this matter was worthwhile in Subaru's view, and 'that person' she Can you really wait?

"My, what do you think..."

Subaru didn't expect, he really didn't expect Beatrice to suddenly tell him this, and also asked his opinion.

The reason why Subaru often came to the Forbidden Book Library was not only because he hoped to have a savior in the face of the possible pursuit of Rem, but also because he wanted to ease Beatrice's loneliness. .

400 years of loneliness is unimaginable to ordinary people who can't even remember the life of his previous life, and think about it now that he has only 17 years of experience.

Although Miss System once said that he could use this incident to attack Beatrice directly, so that he got a powerful Great Spirit and Beatrice was saved from loneliness, but Subaru felt that it was just a deception and a lie Pretending is not really helping Beatrice.

So he has been actively looking for Beatrice, chatting with her, and now telling her stories, just to make Beatrice away from loneliness, and then one day in the future, maybe he can help Beatrice from this forbidden library Get out completely.

But he really didn't expect Beatrice to tell him these things at this time, because Subaru felt that although the relationship between the two should be considered friends, they should not be good enough to share each other's secrets. .

So Subaru, who didn't have a perfect draft in his heart, was really unable to give a perfect answer to Beatrice's question for a while.

But since Beatrice has spoken out about the meaning of her existence and asked him about it, he can't avoid this question. He doesn't want to disappoint this arrogant, but very lonely little girl.

"First of all, what I want to say is that I think there's nothing wrong with what you have done, Beatrice, and you have guarded this forbidden library for 400 years for this ethereal contract. It's really amazing."

"Then I..."

"Let me say it's fine..."

Subaru smiled and patted Beatrice's head, but Beatrice rarely resisted, but looked at Subaru with an uncertain expression, and Subaru also knew that his smile would look a little scary with those fierce eyes, so he also Just smiled and put away the smile.

"But I think, Beatrice, you have done enough, there is no need to wait here any longer."

"400 years... It's really been a long time. It's so long that I can't imagine that everything around me will become unfamiliar to me, and I may even forget the original 'promise'."

"But Beatrice, you are still continuing, persevering, and guarding this forbidden library. This is something that other people can't do, and it's impossible to do at all. I really think Beatrice is very powerful. At the same time, I think that it is no longer necessary to continue.”

Subaru knew very well that the Echidona in Beatrice's mouth was just giving Beatrice a 'reason' to live. There was no 'that person' from the beginning, or anyone could be 'that person' .

As long as Beatrice makes a choice, then the person Beatrice chooses is the 'that person' in Echidona's mouth, but because Beatrice pays attention to this contract, after making the agreement with Echidona, she will never again She never left the forbidden library, she was just waiting.

Waiting for the 'Book of Wisdom' in hand to appear the name of 'that person', waiting for the 'that person' in Echidona's mouth to come here and say to her 'I am the one you are waiting for'.

But Subaru couldn't say it directly. He didn't know Ai Chidona. After all, that was a person who died 400 years ago. Where would he know him as a 17-year-old ordinary person, so he couldn't say Ai directly. The meaning of what Gidona did.

However, even if she couldn't say it directly, Subaru wanted to show Beatrice another way that she had done enough.

"I have never believed in anything like destiny. In my opinion, the so-called 'destiny' is just the result of choice. Because such a choice is made, it will naturally have such a result."

"And this is the same thing, Beatrice, you chose to wait for 'that person' so you have persisted until now, but I think this method can actually be changed."

"Is 'that person' really a fixed person? As you said, you have a book of omniscience called 'Book of Wisdom' in your hand, but it does not show the name of the person you are waiting for and information."

"I'm not saying there's a possibility that 'that person' doesn't exist or wasn't born, but another possibility..."

Subaru paused, feeling that Beatrice in his arms should have understood his thoughts and was waiting for him to speak his thoughts.

"Anyone can be 'that person' as Echidna calls it, anyone can be 'that person' you've been waiting for."

"It wasn't that 'that person' came here, it wasn't that 'that person' chose you, it was you who chose 'that person', the person you chose, the person you wished for, the person you were waiting for people."

"So the important thing is not other people, and it shouldn't be passively waiting for other people's choices."

"What really matters is your choice, your hope, Beatrice... It should be up to you to decide who that person is, not anyone else!"

"Is it up to Betty to decide..."

Beatrice left Subaru's body with a complicated look and stood on the ground. She already understood what Subaru wanted to say when he was halfway through speaking, just like Subaru's evaluation of stories in novels. , in his view, the important thing is the choice of the parties, and only the choice of the parties can decide everything.

The so-called 'destiny' and 'future' are only the result of the parties' choice.

So, what should she choose?Is it really as Subaru said, what matters is not the 'that person' Echidona said, but her choice?

"I can understand, Beatrice..."

Subaru did not choose to stop because he finished speaking his opinion. Even though Betty left his embrace, Subaru continued to speak.

He hoped that she could understand, understand, and look away, and then come out of the bondage called the forbidden library, called the contract, instead of being imprisoned in this place forever.

Now he often comes to the forbidden library to find Betty, but he is just an ordinary human. Human life is limited, not to mention that no one knows which will come first tomorrow and accident.

If after he died, who else would come to the forbidden library to accompany Beatrice?At that time, will Beatrice return to her original lonely appearance, staying alone in this place forever?

So, Subaru wanted to change, and he hoped that Beatrice could make a change.

"You have been sitting in front of the door of the forbidden library. You must be hoping to see the waiting people come here, and also hope that someone can take you out."

"If you want, I can say to you 'Beatrice, I'm the one you've been waiting for, get out of here with me!' . . . I want to take you out, and I'll take you out."

"But... the most important thing is your choice, isn't it? You don't rely on others, don't let others make choices for you, but make your own choices, choose what to do, choose what direction to go in, and choose who to become' that person'."

"As long as you take the first step, all problems will disappear, right?"

Subaru noticed that Beatrice's body trembled, maybe as he said, Beatrice had always longed for someone to be rescued, she had always longed for someone to take her out of this place, and the reason why she was right Sitting at the door is just a manifestation of inner desire.

He had already said everything that could be said. Subaru, who had no guts in his heart and was not good at debating, couldn't say anything at length. He could only say everything that was on his mind at the moment come out.

And next, all he can do is to wait quietly, waiting for Beatrice's choice.

I don't know how much time has passed, maybe 1 minute, or 3 minutes, of course 5 minutes is also possible, it is easy to forget the time when people are concentrating, and Subaru is indeed paying attention to Beatrice.

Beatrice, who had kept her head down, raised her head and looked at Subaru with hopeful eyes.

"If... Betty means if."

"If Betty wanted you to be the 'that person' Betty was waiting for, what would you do?"

"Then I am 'the one'!"

Subaru replied without the slightest hesitation, there is no need for hesitation at this time, all he has to do is support Beatrice's choice.

"The forbidden library or something is not important to me at all. What matters is you, Beatrice. I will become 'that person' and take you out of here. There is no need to continue to stay in this place alone!"

"But...they will be separated..."

"Separation is impossible..."

Subaru sighed, he knew what Beatrice was worried about.

"There is no such thing as forever. The future you are afraid of will come one day."

"The moment when I leave the immortal you will surely come sooner or later... But, just thinking about the horror of parting and giving up the happiness before that, there are too many things in life for you and me. The tasted part."

"And even if you are separated, after that, Beatrice, you will not be alone anymore. As long as you take this first step, all problems will be solved after that."

"It's different... I made a choice, and in the end it's still a person..."

"Then try to do it. Even if you are alone in the future, you will laugh happily when you recall the past, and achieve the happiness that covered all the loneliness in the 400 years before that. Even at the end, what you have in your memory It is enough to live a happy life.”

"As long as you work hard, everything can be done!"

Subaru said that, if he hesitated just because he was worried that he might return to a state of being alone in the future, wouldn't that be too pitiful and regrettable?

If this is the case, in the end, isn't all that I have in my memory all the lonely memories of only one person?Is such a life really a meaningful and memorable life?

"In the future, I will leave a vivid memory that will not fade no matter how long it has passed, and I will laugh every time I think of it. As long as this is the case, that's fine..."

"Beatrice."

Afraid of loneliness, longing for 'rescue', but also fearful of separation, maybe this is the long-term pain of the Longevity Seed, not necessarily, Subaru has no way to understand or imagine the pain, but he feels that this is a must hurdles to overcome.

Separation is painful. Even as a human with a short lifespan, he has to experience too many separations in his life. It can even be said that if there is no Miss System, he will be separated from his parents forever and never meet again.

However, if he just gave up moving forward like this, then such a life would be full of regrets and pains. Subaru hoped that even at the end, he would be able to laugh and not regret the decision he had made, and he was really happy when he said that.

"What matters is your choice."

"Betty's choice..."

Beatrice repeated Subaru's words. She looked at Subaru, and she could see herself in Subaru's eyes. She saw that she was eager to reach out her hand, and she also saw Subaru who was full of trust and expectation for her. .

After hesitating for a while, Beatrice stretched out her hands towards Subaru, her eyes filled with twinkling stars.

Seeing Beatrice's movement, Subaru also understood the change from the original sitting position to half-squatting on the ground, and reached out his hand to embrace Beatrice into his arms.

Beatrice has made a choice, she no longer stays in place, but chooses to take this first step bravely, and he is the 'that person' that Beatrice hopes, and he will also be here to meet her. Fulfill your promise for the rest of your life.

Let Beatrice be able to say with a smile even if they parted in the future, it was a beautiful and happy past.

"about……"

"what?"

Subaru didn't hear what Beatrice was saying.

"Betty said the contract!"

"Contract? Like Emilia and Parker?"

"Well, since you want to be with Betty, then make a contract with Betty!"

"Okay, but what should I do?"

Subaru tilted his head in confusion. He didn't know anything about magic, wizards, etc., so he didn't know how to make a contract.

"Come on Betty..."

As Beatrice spoke, she moved her body closer to Subaru. The two of them got closer and closer, and only each other was left in sight. Just when Subaru realized what Beatrice wanted to do, someone in the forbidden library. The door was suddenly forced open from the outside, and there was a loud noise.

"So you're here, Subaru... I really don't know the etiquette to have my concubine come to you on the initiative~"

Priscilla once again used her luck from the daytime and successfully broke Subaru's contract with Beatrice.

This chapter ends.
