Chapter 704: A Certain Girl’s Final Journey (side: Miria)
The Holy City is in a great rush to locate survivors after the successful subjugation of Saint Jornes by Irushia-san. I should really be helping out, but all I can seem to do is vacantly stare out over the ruined city while seated atop the rubble of what used to be a home.
Originally, I had come all the way to Ridom in the hopes I could find out more about Irushia-san from Saint Lilixira.
Most high-ranking monsters have [Telepathy] as a means of communicating their thoughts. I know that it wasn’t really the time for it, but I wish I could have talked with Irushia-san, even a little bit.
There’s a mountain of things I wanted to ask Irushia-san. Things like why he left that forest, what’s been happening with him until now, what’s currently arising in the world, and what became of Saint Lilixira. And, if possible, I’d have liked to have shared what I’ve done on my journey so far, and what I’ve seen.
『…Sorry.』
…That was all he said. The symbol of terror that is the Apocalypse apologetically bowed his head to me and then quickly flew away and disappeared. No, since he’d asked about the Kingdom of Ardesia’s location, he’s most likely headed there. However, I have no idea at all why.
“Haa…”
I heave a long sigh.
“No wonder you’re tired, Miria.”
