The next day, Sol watched Carla in a daze as she spoke with the children, Miter, and Odie to say goodbye.
Once Carla’s exchange was over, they headed for Serenite, Lepios’ hometown. Inside Sol, however, the excitement he had felt since waking up was completely gone. There was too much to think about in a scenario that had changed too much.
Is Levia alive? If she was alive, which one of them would be sacrificed to the Demon King? When Sol acted differently from the original, it was an everyday occurrence that a key action was performed by a character different from the original. So it would not have been surprising if it had been either of them.
Even so, Celes was right, they would still be able to defeat the Demon King. Celes, in particular, had become surprisingly strong compared to before she was swallowed by the rubble. However, he couldn’t shake the fear of not knowing what would happen.
And one more thing. Lepios’ girlfriend, Rale. As with the case of Odie, and as with the case of Zed and Lacto, it was not as if nothing was going to happen. Therefore, Sol was worried that there might be something.
“Hey, Lepios.”
Sol called out to Lepios, who was standing next to him.
“What’s wrong?”
“How are you and Rale san getting along these days?”
Sol asked Lepios, wanting to at least know in advance if there was any discomfort. He was not sure if he had any communication with her at all. Sol asked Lepio to let him know in advance if he felt any discomfort.
“I wonder. I’ve been sending her messages lately, but she hasn’t been responding much.”
“I see… …….”
Sol instinctively looked away from Lepios. He remembered that Lepios had been sending messages to Rale every day since she asked him to contact her. He laughed a little when he saw that the messages he sent seemed like work-related messages.
But if there was no reply from the other side, was that what was going on? If there was no reply even to what I wanted, he could only assume that was the case.
While he was thinking about this, Lepios stared at Sol and said
“Sol. Do you see into the future?”
“Eh ……?”
Sol was puzzled by the sudden words. It is true that Sol knew some of the future with his knowledge of the game from his previous life. The future is beginning to be very different, but still, there are many things that can be predicted.
But he couldn’t say that, so he quickly faked it.
“O-Of course not! There is no such magic in this world!”
“Is that so? With the series of events that occurred during the repayment of the favor, it certainly seems as though you know something.”
“Ah, no, …….”
Sol instinctively averted his eyes from Lepios. He couldn’t think of any excuses.
It would have been easy to hide the truth before he was swallowed up by the rubble. After all, he was disliked unconditionally, so he would only end up receiving complaints in the end.
But now, the miasma has no effect. That’s why, Sol guessed, Lepios was becoming suspicious of something. But he didn’t know what to say, because he was afraid that if he said something, he would dig another grave.
“Um …… the future, I can’t see ….but I could give you more precise advice. ……”
Sol said the words he managed to come up with. The fact is, he doesn’t see the future. If he could see the future, he would be able to do a little better.
“Sure, for someone who can see the future, you do look surprised and confused at times. Especially at the tower. ……”
“That’s …….”
“You don’t have to say ……. I don’t want to hear it out when you give me that look.”
Sol involuntarily touched his face. What in the world did he look like? Without understanding what was going on, Lepios said that the conversation was over and took out his magical tool for communication.
Seeing him like that, Sol wondered, “Should I tell him the truth?” But even if he did, he could not imagine that it would change for the better.
He could not say anything unnecessary, even though he might even be disliked.
At least if he had the magic to see the future as Lepios had said. He would have been able to solve many more things. For example, what might happen between Lepios and Rale in the future.
At the moment he thought that, his thoughts stopped. No, wait, even if he had known about them, would he been able to solve the problem?
His experience in love is zero. Not only in his life as a Yuto, but also in his memories of Sol. And Lepios’ love experience is at least one when he has a girlfriend. If a person with zero experience in love were to give advice to someone with that kind of experience, he would just be a purely depressing person. Sol’s head was in his hands as he thought of this.
“Sorry, sorry to keep you waiting!”
Carla, finally free of the child, comes over to us. As soon as Carla arrived, we would be transferred to Serenite. There was no time to think.
At this moment, Odie, who was in the back of the room, met Sol’s eyes and bowed to him. Sol waved to him anyway.
He was a good man, at least. He was just a little crushed by his inferiority complex. Of course, he had said some terrible things to Carla, but she had forgiven him and they had become friends and talked well, even if their relationship had changed a little.
He thinks that maybe Rale has a reason for this.
He hoped so. But that hope was easily dashed.
As soon as he arrived at Serenite, he saw Rale walking arm in arm with another man.

TFTC! Well, this pretty much confirms what I already suspected about the miasma not being the cause of MC and his friends’ relationship problems but rather a catalyst.
