Elicia's Grim Reaper

"Tanadus!"

The extremely nervous voice rushed into the bedroom of the Temple of Death along with a streak of gold. Hypnos, who got the news at the first time, immediately returned to the temple to check on Thanadus' situation, for fear that he would be harmed in the slightest.

"I'm fine, Hypnos, don't worry..." Although the other party's actions were very rude, the silver-haired Reaper who could feel the other party's deep concern for him still happily let the other party do what he did, and kept It wasn't until the other party felt relieved that he embraced him in his arms before reaching out and hugging the other party back, "I'm fine, I didn't get hurt at all, Hypnos, you have to believe me..."

It seems that after many inspections, the other party was really not found to be injured. Hypnos, who was slightly relieved, looked at the nonchalant silver-haired Reaper with a worried face, and even more so when he was holding Thanadus' hand. With great strength, Thanadus felt that he was going to be bruised, "Why didn't Thanadus tell me?"

"Huh? I told you..." The silver-haired god of death who was accused of being inexplicably blinked innocently, but he notified Hypnos as quickly as possible after finishing dealing with that guy. What do you mean he didn't tell him?

Then his question was answered in the next second.

"Why didn't you notify me when you were attacked? Although I can't help you directly, but I..." The hand that was holding Thanadus' arm was slightly loose, and the whole person shook his head as if he had lost the strength to support him. Leaning on Thanadus' shoulder, "Even if I can't help you, I don't want you to face the enemy alone..."

"...Sorry..." Thanadus, who was completely puzzled by Hypnos's sudden weakness, understood immediately after hearing the words behind him, showing a smile on his face that was no different from that of Hypnos who was leaning on him. With an apologetic smile, "I just don't want you to be attacked too, so..."

Whatever I say is fine, but I absolutely don't want you to be attacked or even hurt because of it.

He didn't finish the sentence, but the pair of silver-gray eyes staring at the other party expressed his meaning completely.

"I am the same, Thanadus." Hypnos, who clearly felt the other party's heart, raised his head, and the fragility that had appeared on his face had long since disappeared like the fine snow in early winter, replaced by the warmth of the past Completely different firmness and determination, "Seeing you hurt is the most painful thing for me."

"So, if something is happening, don't hide it from me, and inform me as soon as possible, okay?"

"..." Facing Hypnos' expectant eyes, Thanadus, who thought he could easily nod in agreement, suddenly felt that he had lost control of his body, and was completely unable to nod in agreement with Hypnos. Require.

"Promise me?" Hypnos, who didn't get an answer, repeated his request again earnestly, looking at him in a way Thanadus had never seen before.

"..." Facing such a low-profile Hypnos, Thanadus, who didn't know how to deal with it, stood there for a long time without any response.

The two gods were in a stalemate like this, one begged, the other couldn't respond, as if time had stopped at this moment and could no longer move forward.

Then, at some point after the silence fell, the hoarse voice of the silver-haired God of Death resounded from the dormitory of the God of Death Temple: "...OK."

A few days after the sneak attack incident, Thanadus felt that something was wrong with him, no matter when he was with Hypnos or when he was alone, he always felt that something was wrong, but he couldn’t find out. What is wrong.

On this day, it happened that Hypnos was not away, and Thanadus, who felt a little bored by himself, decided to find someone to discuss this issue after thinking for a while, so he came to the place where the most congenial to him besides the Mother Goddess was. There is the trusted god - the Tartarus Abyss.

"Uncle Tartarus?" Looking at the endless darkness in front of him, the silver-haired god of death who tilted his head slightly called softly.

"Tani? Why did you come here suddenly? Is there anything wrong?" Before Thanadus' words fell completely, the shadow of the abyss god, who had never appeared before the gods, appeared within Thanadus' sight .

"No, it's not..." Shaking his head and denying Tartaros' inquiry, Thanadus, who wanted to speak but suddenly didn't know what to say, frowned, his bitterness and hatred attracted the attention of the God of the Abyss .

"Tanadus?" Tartaros, who rarely saw Thanadus so entangled, suddenly became interested. He wanted to know what made Thanadus, who had always been careless, become like this, so he had Unsurprisingly, the interested Abyss God invited Thanadus to his jurisdiction—the Abyss.

"Please use." Although always in a black robe, the abyss god who looked really charming put the brewed tea in front of Thanadus, with a real smile on his face, "Maybe there is no Xiupu North is to your liking, but you can try."

"Thank you, Uncle Tartarus." In fact, Thanadus, who seldom eats food made by others, did not refuse. Although he is used to Hypnos' craftsmanship, the craftsmanship of other gods may bring different enjoyment.

Picking up the teacup and taking a sip, the silver-haired Grim Reaper's silver-gray eyes lit up. Although it wasn't a familiar taste, it was a unique taste, and he liked it very much.

"Very good, Uncle Tartarus."

"Thank you for the compliment." The Abyss God who put another cup in front of him and sat down smiled at the smiling face in front of him. He took a sip from the teacup and looked at Thanadus, who was drinking happily, and asked, "Why did you come to see me suddenly today?"

"Uh..." The silver-haired Reaper, who was distracted by the tea of ​​the Abyss God, was unconsciously embarrassed for a moment, then lowered his head when he thought of the things that bothered him, and pursed his lips in embarrassment, "I..."

"It's okay if you don't want to say it, I don't mind having you come and drink tea with me at all." The always gentle Abyss God generally understood the cause of the problem when he saw Thanadus' appearance.

The god of death has always been indifferent, and there is no one else who can make him entangled but that god.

but……

The God of Abyss, who continued to drink tea, looked at the silver-haired God of Death who was still tangled up there with a smile, and he didn't want to poke it. He probably didn't realize it...

Well, it's not a big deal, just watch the fun.

Such an unkind god of the abyss was watching from the ground, with an expression that I don't know anything, and drank tea with the tangled silver-haired god of death for several days.

Then on this day, he welcomed another god who rarely came here.

"Long time no see, Hypnos." The mild-mannered Abyss God smiled brightly, as if he knew that Hypnos would not be able to resist coming to him to ask what happened, which caused a certain animal to "revenge" His sleepiness was disturbed for a while.

"Greetings from Jiushu, Great God Tartarus." Hypnos, whose etiquette was perfect at all times, leaned slightly, and assumed a gesture of alienation indifferently.

"Hypnos, why do you..." The God of Abyss, who was defeated by Hypnos' little thought, shook his head funnyly, "Thanadus has been spending time with me recently... Said it was killing time Maybe it's not accurate, to be correct, he should be avoiding..."

Having thoroughly discovered the joy of teasing God, Abyss God cast a wicked look at the blond Sleeping God who wanted to ask but forbears, and thought for a while that he should not be too unkind, or if he offends this one, he will be "revenged" "Yes, although it is nothing, it is still a headache for God, it is better to be less, "The reason for Thanadus' sudden change...Hypnos, you should know."

"!" Hypnos, who seemed to be enlightened, suddenly froze there for a long time without moving. Although the expression on his face did not change much, Tartarus, who had been watching him carefully, still noticed a flash in his eyes. Fleeting amazement.

Hypnos is wise, it is impossible for him not to understand the reason for Thanadus' sudden change, but he is unwilling to think about it, because he knows the reason.

"Hypnos, go, Thanadus is inside." The Abyss God, who thought it was enough to stop, gave way to the "tea room", "You know what to do, and I believe it too You can do it, go."

"...Tartaros...uncle..." The blond Sleeping God, whose expression gradually relaxed, bowed slightly to the Abyss God standing beside him because of a fleeting moment in his handsome eyebrows. With a grateful smile, "Thank you very much."

"You called me uncle...we are one family, Hypnos." He reached out and patted Hypnos on the shoulder, and the Abyss God, who felt relieved, slowly disappeared, "You guys Only then can we rest assured."

"Yes, don't worry about it." All the wandering and weakness in the past has disappeared, and the long-lost sleep god returns again, and then he will return to Ilicia with the restored death god in the near future.

The author has something to say:

...Looking at the last sentence carefully, how do you feel that it can be finished now? !

It's my delusion, it's my delusion, it's my delusion
