silver moon night

Yoji and Mirai, who saw the fireplace for the first time, immediately piled all the wood into it.

"If only you had killed Shinobu then."

Sakura, who ate half of the meal, said so regretfully.The topic turned to the conflict with TOP4.If possible, Yin doesn't want Mirai and Yoji to know that he has turned into a beast, so Yin deliberately evaded this matter with an ambiguous attitude.The two of them didn't say anything after they knew that Yin had turned into a beast, but the unintentional sympathy in their eyes made Yin even more uncomfortable.

Gin himself hadn't fully figured out the matter of turning into a beast and defeating the enemy.This is a difficult question to sort out, Yin can only let himself try not to think about it as much as possible.While transforming into the beast that he hated so much in the past, he also began to be overwhelmed by the power he possessed after the transformation.

(What shall I do from now on?)

After eating, Yin saw a window leading to the outside in the attic, so he climbed to the roof and sat down alone, looking up at the stars in the sky.The biting cold was just enough to calm his head, and he just sat there motionless, looking up at the night sky for a long time.

"Silver, you are here."

Yoji poked his head out from behind the window, and only after hearing his voice did Gin realize that he had been sitting here for a long time.The tall man opened the glass window and walked out, holding a steaming mug in his hand, and walked carefully to the roof.

"Here you are, Yin. And meat buns."

Yoji took out a hot and soft meat bun from his pocket, and sat down beside Gin.Then the future also poked its head out from the opposite side of the window, and crawled along the eaves on all fours.Future sat down beside Yin, exhaled a breath of white air, and took a bite of the meat bun.

"There are so many stars. You can't see so many in Tokyo."

Future's breath fogged his glasses.Yin smiled, took the meat bun and took a bite.

"Silver, don't worry about it alone. Haven't we all worked hard together as three of us?"

Yoji leaned on Gin's shoulder and said calmly.Silver lowered his eyes silently.After five years, friends who have shared weal and woe can naturally feel his confusion.Once again deeply feeling his friend's consideration for him, Yin smiled wryly.

"...I don't understand the meaning of fighting more and more."

Silver speaks frankly about his thoughts.I obviously hate animalization so much, but I lost my way because of the refreshing feeling of animalization. What should I rely on to reach the ideal end?He was getting more and more confused.Sakura wanted to avenge her mother, her inner turmoil, and whether she was just a pawn played by the organization, Gin told Yoji and the others everything she could think of.Yoji and Mirai listened to Gin's words without saying a word, and finally Yoji hugged Gin's shoulders.

"Silver, you must be very confused."

Yoji was still the same, with a gentle smile on his face, and he patted Gin on the shoulder a few times.Future hugged his knee and smiled.

"I really can't do anything about you. Because for you in the past, killing all the orcs was the meaning of your existence. Now that you have Mr. Sakura, you have ambivalence about your own actions, right?"

When the future said so, Yin also felt that it seemed to be the case.It was okay to say before.Just treat all orcs as your enemies.But now he is confused, even the leader of the organization has an unknown side.

"Silver is a very stubborn person. I... said before... I think it is impossible to kill all the orcs. Because as long as the orcs have a human side, they cannot be generalized. Classify them all as evil existences. Because Yin avenged us, we are willing to follow Yin until Yin fulfills his wish. But compared to the life of fighting and killing every day, we hope that Yin can be like ordinary people Let’s live a peaceful life together.”

"future……"

"Yin Mingming is so popular, but he doesn't know anything about love. It's too wasteful. So I think it's better to take the defeat of the organization as the goal."

"I agree too."

Hearing Miku's words, Yoji also nodded vigorously.

"Living this kind of endless revenge life is never a good thing. I think it is probably because the orcs like to live in groups, so it will have a bad effect. So we should focus on defeating the organization, and it is better to take this as the goal. Although Silver may be disgusted with animalization, but as long as it can hit the leader of the organization, I think it's okay. Although we also thought about what to do if Silver started to attack innocent people after becoming a beast, Silver will definitely not do that kind of thing Right? Since that’s the case, Silver is different from ordinary orcs, so there’s no need to feel disgusted with him.”

"Yang Er..."

"You can't let go of Mr. Sakura's words, and I can understand that more or less. I always feel...Even if Mr. Sakura defeats the leader of the organization, he will not be happy. He just transformed the grief of losing his mother into the grief of his father. It’s just the hatred of my half-brother. I’ve had this feeling too, and if I have someone I hate, I’ll feel better.”

Yoji's words resonated with Gin.

Yin drank the coffee in the mug and looked up at the bright starry sky above his head.After chatting with the two of them, I felt much happier.It's nice to have friends to talk to about your troubles.Indeed, as the two of them said, forcibly closing oneself in the rules and regulations set by oneself is Yin's bad habit.As if cursed, he made up his mind to kill all the orcs.It wasn't until after the enlightenment of the two that he vaguely realized that he could actually be freed from this curse.

"Hey, what are you three sneaking around here for?"

Sakura, who suddenly broke the quiet atmosphere, stood opposite the window and stared at them.He must have noticed that Yin and the others disappeared at some point, and felt something was wrong.

"Mr. Sakura can also come together."

Mirai whispered incredulously while chewing on the meat bun.

"Because that guy is a poor man with no friends. So I dare not come here even if I think about it."

Yin replied sarcastically, and immediately heard a dry cough.

"I heard it."

Several blue veins popped out on Sakura's forehead, and Yoji next to him couldn't help laughing, and Miki wiped his worn-out lenses with his sleeve.

"Being told by Yin, who has few friends, that he has no friends, it seems that the situation is quite serious."

Mirai whispered sympathetically, Sakura swallowed for a moment, and drooped her head wordlessly.Hearing the footsteps behind him gradually receding, Yin Xin thought that the person must have been injured.

"Sakura-san also has a cute side. He seems to really take it to heart. Am I exaggerating?"

"Let him go."

"Is it really uncomfortable for a person to be excluded? Yin, go and comfort him."

Why should I comfort you?Yin was about to protest, but was pushed by Yoji and Mirai.In desperation, he had no choice but to go back to the room from the window to find Sakura.The awkward Sakura was sleeping in the innermost room on the second floor.Silver knocked on the door and walked into the room.

"Hey."

Sakura lay on the bed facing the wall, and did not answer Gin's voice.Yin went to the bed and sat down on his own initiative.Sakura has not fully recovered from her injuries.Although the orcs recovered faster than humans, Sakura was suffering from serious injuries that had put his life on the verge of death, so it would take some time until he fully recovered.

"It's okay to fight with you, but I have a condition."

Hearing Gin's words, Sakura's shoulders shook, and finally turned around.

"Absolutely don't cause trouble for unrelated people. And, if you still have something to hide from me, confess it now. If you can do these two things, I can fight with you until the organization is defeated."

"really?"

Sakura got up and stared at Gin's face.Silver nodded calmly.

"I have nothing to hide from you. There may be some things I didn't say, but as long as you ask, I will answer. You have to trust me."

"I don't want to use despicable means. So you are not allowed to use any despicable means."

Gin warned so repeatedly, Sakura kept a sad face without saying a word, for him, this is an impossible condition.

"...Why? Shouldn't we use all means to defeat our opponents? The organization is not as naive as you imagined, and you know that, right? You can forget it yourself, and any despicable methods I use are my own business, right? .”

After silence, Sakura stared at Gin tentatively and retorted.Silver shook his head grimly.

"No. I am stronger than you. So you have to listen to me. If you dare to use despicable means, don't blame me for breaking my promise."

"So I said why are you doing this?"

Sakura asked anxiously, Yin chose the answer that was closest to his mood.

"Because it would trample on my self-esteem."

Sakura was stunned when he heard the words, and took a step back involuntarily.Other than that, there is no other answer that can express my feelings better.Yin thought that Sakura would laugh at him, but unexpectedly, Sakura just scratched his head and fell down on the bed again with an incomprehensible expression.

"...gold and silver orcs are special."

Sakura's hoarse voice sounded low.

"what?"

"You have self-confidence stronger than anyone else, so dare
