Chapter 24: 24 Lesson 23: The Promise of a Pale Night

"Beautiful moon."

I walk under a tree and I say hello like that.

"... n"

The elf girl simply gives her consent.

Abel was not wearing a hat.

There is no trademark hat worn indoors.

Even though it is worn as well as it must be outside.

Lightly pigmented golden hair reflects pale moonlight.

I thought it was fantastic, and I thought it was beautiful.

"Abel, today -"

"... more, this way"

I was blocked from speaking, and I was held up. Keep it up. She sits up and puts me on her knees.

Like the first time we met, it's behind me to have her.

(Looks like we brought parents and kids here for a picnic......)

It's so fantastic out there, it doesn't tighten up. Well, as it turns out, I'm a five-year-old. Being in the beautiful scenery can be a painting. So I talked to him as he was.

"What was Abel doing today?

"... alone, it was just"

"Is that fun?

"... not fun. but what it takes."

Inorganic, pale answers.

I don't see the face of the elf girl. Because I'm just looking up at the moon.

"Were you doing something important?

"... was chewing on something important"

Abel strokes my head.

What kind of look do you have?

Are you looking at me or at the moon? I don't even know that.

"... I've been alone most of the time, and I will always be. That's natural, something we shouldn't forget. I was making myself hear it."

Time, huh?

Me and Abel, maybe we have a different sense of time.

Probably thousands of years. Maybe the girl who's lived more 'moments' than that.

The way the visible world feels and the way it is, it must be separate from me.

I can't understand the emotions there right now.

I can't live with you.

"I guess it won't be long for Abel to spend time with us."

"...... hmm. That's why it's worth it. … I'm determined to think so"

Geez, they hugged me.

"That's a nice way to think."

"... said Al's mother"

It was a brain-weather mother.

I'm a little impressed that we just call each other best friends.

"... Lucica got all sorts of things. Meeting Al is one of them."

"Oh, yeah. If that's what Abel thinks, I'd love to."

But I've never done anything to her.

They taught me magic, they taught me medicine, they gave me a workshop and a blacksmith, and I've never been able to repay them.

"Is there anything Abel wants or wants you to do?

Leaving aside if it's possible for me, if I knew, I'd have a chance to repay you.

"... I do, but I can't"

I still don't see the look on your face. But he sounded a little sad.

"If that's a good idea, can I ask you something?

"... no"

"Right. That's too bad."

Though I think I have a good relationship with her, I guess I'm not just close enough to step into the back of my mind. Now, not yet.

I was thinking that way. I got more power to hug me.

"... Al is still a child. So just be sweet"

Hmm.

Is the reason you won't talk to me is not because of a lack of trust, but because I'm a child I still can't rely on?

Then you might as well say it.

"Well, then, when I grow up, let me give something back to Abel."

"... I'm just acting like I want to. There's nothing Al needs to be grateful for."

"Ha. So you're holding me now, too, what you want to do?

"... yes. I don't want to let go."

Yeah.

I tried witch mountain games and Straight embarrassed me. No, I'm glad.

"... ask the other way around. Does Al want anything from me?

"Well, ears..."

"... that's no good"

I was instantly answered.

I have to say that my defense with regard to arrow-hearted ears is high.

"... if Al says he's offering to me not only physically and mentally, but even to a piece of his soul, you can let him touch his ear"

"Eh -"

"... a joke. I won't do that, and I can't."

When Abel got me off her knees, she took my hand and made me stand.

"... Al, can you dance?

"With hatred.... my mother tells me I should remember."

What if Takazu wanted a dance?

I didn't know there was going to be a tsuke here who refused to master...

But Abel didn't look particularly concerned, and when she held me up, she made me face the big pale moon.

"Beautiful moon..."

"... n"

Even though he said the same thing about the encounter, Abel replies to the discipline.

"... there is one cycle in that moon, just as there are cycles in the stars"

"Lunar eclipse or something?

"... there's that too. What I want to talk about is the 100-year cycle"

"A hundred years later, there's something," he said?

"... yeah. Ten years from now. Ten years from now, the 100-year cycle will show up"

Ten years later.

Just about time I got a 15-year-old.

"So, what do you have?

"... that day comes what is called the 'Great Ethereal Night', when the moon shines very loudly. Even though it is night, everything in the world is filled with pale light"

"Heh. I guess that's sawdust beautiful"

Was Halley Comet in the Earth world indeed a 76-year cycle? "The Great Ethereal Night" over here and they did it for 100 years.

If you're both unlucky, you'll end your life without ever seeing it.

"... Al. I hope you remember."

Abel drops me off and squeezes my hand.

"... I want you and I to dance alone on the 'Great Ethereal Night' day 10 years from now"

"Like now?

"... like now"

I can't dance at all right now, but I'll tell you that.

We're just staring at each other and holding hands right now.

"Okay. I'll learn to dance. So you dance with Abel."

"...... hmm. Yakuzoku"

Master Elf has given me a pinky finger, so I made fun of my pinky finger without hesitation.

There's one in this world, too, fingertips.

When I think about it and I look up,

"... 10 years from now, I'm sure I'm looking up to Al"

There was a gentle smile there, not just the mouth.

That was the first time I saw Abel.

"Beautiful..."

Not the pale moon.

To a girl who made a distant promise.

I had that feeling from the bottom of my heart.
