"Franjulas......!

　I was just standing there.

　Of course, she's an enemy.
　She was an enemy when I was in the party, and she still is.

　But now that I'm facing the dying Franjulas, I realize that I'm slightly upset.

　Perhaps it's because I had some interaction with him at the hideout of the remnants of the Demon King's army.

　I don't have much time to talk with others since I started my journey of revenge.
　The only ones who are close to him are Shea and Yurin.

　And Franjulas seems to have been close to me.

　Was he trying to win me over?
　Or did he have other plans?
　Or just a whim.

　Or...

"Hmm, I never ...... thought I'd see you again like this. ......

　"Who did this to you?" asked Franjulas, out of breath.

"Who did this to you?
It's ...... a former friend of yours. ......
Juno. ......

　It's true that there aren't many people who can defeat a demon as powerful as Franjulas to this extent.

It's a good idea to have a good idea of what you're looking for. ...Chrome-sama, please be careful .......
I sniffed.

　I sniffed.

That's very kind.
You're very harsh. ...... Is there no such thing as a kind word for a dying woman?
If you can talk lightly, you're still in good shape, aren't you?

　That's exactly what I've noticed while talking lightly.

　The wounds on Franjulas' body have not regenerated at all.
　It was so damaged that it no longer had the power to regenerate.

"Hmm, I wanted to talk to you ...... one last time .......

　Frangoulas's voice grew fainter and fainter.

"You did. ...... I'm glad you did. ......
"You wanted to talk to me?
"I was attracted to ...... you.

　Frangoulas stares at me.
　He has the eyes of a vampire, with the light of a vampire.

I wanted to confess my love to you at least once before I die. ......
What are you talking about?

　It seems that you are planning to end your life with a light hearted talk until the end.

　...... I'll at least go along with that snide remark until the end of my life.

"Master Chrom, ...... take care of .......

　Underneath his thin breath, Franjulas holds out his hand.

"You want me to ...... hold it?

　I don't really know why I did it.
　I shook her hand gently.

"There's ...... and there's ...... and there's .......

　I whispered a thank you, and Frangoulas disappeared into countless red particles.



"Master Chrom, .......

　Shea touched my arm gently.

"That ......
"Franjulas is the enemy.

　I told her without looking back.

He's a leader of the demon army, a former servant of the Demon Lord, and a tormentor of many humans. He is an abomination.

　No reply from Shea.

He deserved to die. That's all.
But ......

　Shea chokes up.

　I looked back at her.
　Tears in her long, slitted eyes.

"Of course you're right, Chrom. But I was sad when she disappeared. It's not logical, but something shook me to my core. ......
"Shea ......?
I'm sure she was attracted to you too, Chrome. When I thought about it, I ...... felt sad and wistful.
I'm also .......

　And Yulin.

You will find a lot of people who have been in the business for a long time, but they have never been able to find a way to make a living.

　I look at them again.

　I...

　I wonder how they feel about Franjulas' death.
　How am I accepting it?

　I ask myself.

"Well, I guess I'll at least make ...... a grave.
