The Long

Journey Until I Reunite With You

Parents

Though it was simply

essential, I was able to purchase soood The teacher’s canes, which

are basically batons, were placed in holders at the sides of my waist Since

they are very heavy for a child, it would take soet

accustomed to them, but nonetheless I feel like I’ll dual-wield them Since I

can’t go about testing theo home and try it out by

hitting a tree instead

「But it’s becoht

be worried, so I’ll hurry back What a pain」 (Velt)

I left Taira and the others

with the usual, but whilemy way back, my pace had slowed down That is,

since Asakura Ryuuma’s memories returned, I have been able to reunite with my

previous life’s teacher, and though I have my conscience as Velt, my other

conscience as Asakura Ryuuer When I think about it, Velt

Jeeha’s parent’s love for hi It’s not like I dislike them,

but if I were asked whether or not I loved his parents, answering would be a

bit difficult

「Mom and Pop huh? They’re a bit nosy, but well, it’s not like I

hate the」 (Velt)

Recently I’ve been thinking

over stuff like the future and hts had come up out of the

blue However, these thoughts immediately dispersed

「Eh?」 (Velt)

Is that the color of the

sunset? No, my field of vision rapped in flames, and in it I could see my

house I was i to understand

the situation

But when I realized it my

legs wereat full speed

「MOM! DAAAD!」 (Velt)

What was happening? A fire?

All thoughts had stopped and all I could do right noas scream

「VELT, DON’T COME ANY CLOSER!」 (Aruna)

It was the first time I had

ever heard h I was told

not go any closer, I had no choice but to head towards them And then, I saw it

My father bleeding froht next to

him

「DON’T COME HERE, VELT! RUN, RIGHT NOW!」 (Bonapa)

The moment my father’s words

reached ure with a wicked smile was reflected in my eyes

「What? A kid?」 (Demi-human)

Its entire body was covered

in pure, white hair It had the face of aas a

rabbit’s Its li the

ground From top to bottom it was nearly three meters tall It was a demi-human

I understood that in an instant

「That was close But look at the flahts

frodom arrive it will already be over」 (Demi-human)

Why was there a demi-human

here? Why was it attacking est problem here

It’s just that I’m scared

「I’ll kill everyone」 (Demi-human)

At the moment the demi-human

uttered those words, ed at the

demi-human

「UOOOOOOOH! ARUNA! TAKE VELT AND RUN!」 (Bonapa)

「Dear!」 (Aruna)

It’s impossible There’s no

e can run My dad doesn't have any experience fighting nor a great deal of

ainst the demi-human by himself

The demon faced my dad’s

spirit, grabbed his head with its long arm, and casually threw him onto the

ground

「Die」 (Demi-human)

I was scared I was

treht my father had died, I

undid both of the holsters and took outoff my mother’s

screa me and faced demi-human

「This, this guy’s a strange one!」 (Demi-human)

I put out all the strength in

my body and struck the deh my arm, a

nuhout my body However,

「H tickles」

(Demi-human)

If it had the body of a

hue But, this enemy had a body

that was er and more fortified than a human’s Even if I were

to hit hi slender arms of a child, there wouldn’t be any

dae

「Hey, stop that!」 (Demi-human)

There was a response I had

given him an axe kick on his forehead If I canThe ht that,

the world had turned upside down

「D-Don’t! Don’t lay your hands on my child!」 (Bonapa)

「VELT! NOOOOOO!」 (Aruna)

Like my father, my head was

restrained and I was thrown onto the ground My power left my body I couldn’t

breathe very well, and , my entire

body was instantly afflicted with a pain to the extent that I couldn’t even

yell

「A hindrance Hurry up and kill them, take the wheat back We can

sell it in the country at a high price Kaizer-sa his position

behind, but I will become rich」 (???)
