Chapter 18 – The Two Wings “HIRO-CHAN!” ---- But from hearing a familiar voice calling for me, I managed to keep myself conscious. “Rio…… na……” I struggle to look up from my fallen down position. And I can see Riona standing in front of me. Her back is facing me while she spread wide her arms. It seems like that she is standing there trying to protect me from Yuisia. “I won’t forgive anyone who bullies Hiro-chan......!” “Sto…… p it…… Riona…… she is…… you……” “It’s alright…… Hiro-chan, it’s alright now. Because Riona is here, Riona has come here……!”
Riona who says that line while turning her face to me, her figure now really overlap with Hina’s figure that I saw in my past life.
---- Once, I have pledged myself to protect you. I definitely won’t let you die no matter what. (He refer to Hina and his act of rescue in prologue) But why did she appear at this kind of place? No, she definitely is only her look alike…… Hina should be still living happily on earth now. For me, that is the only truth that I believe. “…… Demon Queen…… Lilith……” I could hear Yuisia’s whisper. She actually could…… see through Riona’s true identity easily. Yuisia start to walks toward Riona slowly step by step. Seeing Yuisia approaching her, Riona still keep her pose to protect me even though I can see her small body trembling all over. “You can’t! Don’t come here! Don’t bully Hiro-chan!” No, if things continue on, even you wouldn’t be safe. Run away, escape far away from here! If this is a nightmare then I hope it would quickly end. This petrified body of mine, Yuisia come approaching. And mother’s disease, if those all are nightmare, please end quick.
