A short time later, the three of them headed for the dojo. When Carla arrived at her room, she fell asleep.
I should get some more rest, too. That was when Sol also thought about it.
“Thank you,”
Odie said to Sol.
“I didn’t do anything. I just wanted you to get to know Carla better.”
“If it hadn’t been for Sol, I would have been wrong about Carla. I thought Carla was a hard-working, easy-going person who could do anything.”
Sol glanced at Carla. She was happily asleep, unaware that he was talking about her.
“Carla herself doesn’t think she’s having a hard time, though, does she?”
“Yeah. In a way, that’s what makes her a genius.”
Odie looked at Carla without looking away.
“In any case, it’s amazing that Carla can perfect her technique in just one night of practice. I’m sure the foundation she’s been working from is completely different. So …….”
Odie takes a deep breath. He looked as if he had made up his mind to do something.
“I’m going to take a look at my training too. And I’m going to try to catch up with Carla, if only a little.”
With these words, Odie headed toward the dojo.
After he had lost sight of Odie’s back, Sol sat down, leaning against the wall, distracted. Then he stopped his Sol-like smile and put on an easy expression.
Was he being Sol? He would have been. It had gone well.
It was good. Sol thought so. They would be able to get back on good terms with each other.
He just wanted Odie to know about Carla’s efforts, at least. That’s why he didn’t expect Odie’s feelings to change so much.
In his previous life, he had seen people make fun of his efforts many times. So, to see their efforts transformed into respect, it was a quintessential “Lian’s” world. That’s what Sol thought.
“But I’m kind of tired.”
Sol muttered to himself.
Since his rebirth in this world, he has tried to behave in a way that is typical of Sol.
At first, it was fun. Since he had played the game so many times, he had memorized some of the characters’ lines, and it was easy for him to become the person he was supposed to be. Acting as the cheerful, energetic, and always smiling Sol, he was well-liked by everyone until the miasma started to affect him, and he felt as if he had become a different person.
However, his true self is not this cheerful. He was also aware that he had a backward-looking personality. In the post-ending world, when the dialogue is less prescribed, it is a little tiring to play Sol, who is the complete opposite
Still, this time around, there was hope for Sol. Perhaps if he were to go to the city where Ceres and Lepios lived from now on, he might get on the wrong side of the significant others. But things might be manageable.
The world after the miasma was gone was different from what he had imagined, but if the miasma had not disappeared, even this development would not have happened. He had to work a little harder, but if he could bring a happy ending to the world he loved with his own hands, nothing would make him happier.
“Sol”
Sol looked up at the voice calling out to him. Sol looked up to see Celes’ face in his eyes and smiled hurriedly.
“Celes, is something wrong?”
“…… No, nothing. I see that …… Carla and Odie san’s case has been resolved. I saw Odie-san walk away earlier with a refreshed look on his face.”
So saying, Celes sat down next to Sol.
“Yeah, maybe. Well, it’s going to be a day longer before we get to the tower.”
“I know. I was talking about that with Lepios.”
Sol glanced at Carla, who was sleeping without paying attention to their conversation. Carla’s potential to do this, he told Celes and Lepios in advance. And also that he did not want them to stop it this time.
And they agreed.
“As expected Sol”
And she agreed to do so.
“Eh? What ……”
“They made up because of Sol, didn’t they? So I thought Sol was great.”
“N o, I especially ……. I mean, I think Odie just changed his mind when he saw Carla’s efforts. ……”
“But it was Sol who started it, wasn’t it? So, Sol is great.
He always melts the hearts of all kinds of people.”
It must be because it is Sol. The reason why it worked is because he was acting like Sol in his own body. But he felt as if he had been praised in his own way, and that made him happy.
‘Thanks. It makes me happy to be praised by Celes.”
“If it makes you happy, I’ll compliment you again and again.”
With that said, Celes reached out her hand to Sol’s head. Then she gently stroked Sol’s head.
No. If he is pampered like this, he will never be the type of man that Celes likes. While thinking this, in the original story, she treated Sol like a child, so it’s okay to enjoy it just now. Such feelings overflowed
“Sol. You must be tired, too, right? You can go to bed since you have to go to the tower tomorrow.”
“Yeah. ……”
The next thing you know, Celes was hugging him and Sol asleep because he had not slept enough. The warmth of Celes’s warmth, perhaps because he sleeps holding hands with her every night, somehow changed his from nervousness to reassurance.
Oh, did I tell Celes that I was tired?
Sol closed his eyes, unable to resist the urge to sleep, thinking that, well, he hadn’t been there all night, so you can imagine.
“I didn’t know you were tired, …… Are you pushing yourself again?”
Celes murmured, laying Sol’s head on her thigh as he fell completely asleep. Then she gently stroked Sol’s head.
“Sol is always like that. Sol always tries to help people without getting anything in return. No matter how much you are hurt, no matter how hard it is for you. I know that. …… I know that’s why I fell in love with you. You could at least ask me for advice, but I’m sure you’d be working alone. That’s why ……”
Celes looks at Sol with determined eyes. Sol was sleeping with a relieved look on his face.
“I must protect Sol from everything that can hurt him. Especially Behe. You are the only one I will never forgive. I don’t know what you’re trying to do, trying to contact Sol again. I have to find a way to get rid of him, but I have no clue what to do. I can’t even go looking, because I have to protect him. What can I do ……?”
Celes pulled Sol into a tight embrace.
“I have to protect Sol, who taught me about real love. ……”
