While involuntarily lifting up his head, Haruyuki asked the question that he really wanted to.

“The name of that legion is... perhaps, ?Nega Nebulas?? And then, the person you asked to cut off your legs is...”

“?Black Lotus?. Stronger, more noble, and kinder than anyone, my one and only friend.”

The somewhat quiet, yet song like beautiful echo answered, and made Haruyuki nod lightly.

“It would be that... I thought. You... somewhere, towards that person...”

“That is an old story.”

As if to cover Haruyuki’s words, those short words descended from the bed.

“Long, long ago old story. There... sleep already, Karasu-san. Tomorrow is an early day.”

As if to refuse any more conversation, he heard a quick sound of rolling over.

‘—— I want to hear more. Of old times, about that person.’

Even with that kind of feeling, however at that time an intense force weighted on Haruyuki’s face.

He left his body to the visiting warm darkness, and Haruyuki sank down into the abyss of deep sleep.

The next moment, his head hit the floor with a clank, and he unwillingly opened his eyes.

‘What was that, I was still sleeping, who pulled my pillow away’, with that thought he lifted his upper body up. Then, through the fully open curtains, the sky with beautiful orange and purple dye made him closed his eyes into slits.

“Whaa... already, morning...!?”

“That is right. Good morning, Silver Crow.”

When he moved his face to the sound, he saw the shape of Sky Raker returning the pillow that should have been pulled from under his head to the bed. She was already dressed in her white hat and one piece.

“Go, good morning... Umm, right now, what time is it?”

After his inquiry from greeting, the sky color avatar silently pointed towards the kitchen. The small brass color table clock on the cabinet by the wall, its needles showed it was 5am. If the time he lay down yesterday was soon after sunset, then he calculated that he slept for a full ten hours, seemingly without any dream.

However, for sure his head was refreshed as if being thoroughly washed with cold water. On the other hand, it could be said to be that he did not recall ever waking up this invigorated. Furthermore, no more than 30 something seconds passed in the real world.

“...I see, sleeping here, might be a pretty good use of points...”

After he involuntarily muttered, Sky Raker smiled.

“There is the risk that your head might be cut off while sleeping though.”

“...Whaa.”

“It’s too late to hold your neck now. You did not wake up even after I called you five times.”

‘—— So that’s why she resorted to the roughness of pulling away my pillow’. With that understanding, Haruyuki lowered his shoulders.

“So, sorry. I will wake up properly next time.”

However at that point, Sky Raker returned a smile with deep meaning, then drove her wheelchair towards the door.

The Unlimited Neutral Field in the morning, shone a different kind of beauty from the evening. The attribute was still ?Wilderness?, but the reddish brown rocks in morning sun, seemed like huge ruby gemstones.

The wheelchair moved with squeaking sounds through the grass wet with morning dew, then arrived at the north side bench where their talk last night was, and stopped. Haruyuki went beside her, and this time stood still while waiting for Sky Raker’s words.

The original ?Nega Nebulas? member, now accelerated world’s hermit, and level 8 Burst Linker, took a deep breath, then said with a more strict sound.

“Silver Crow. Then, from now on, you will start the training for ?Mind Power?.”

“Ye... yes, please take care of me!”

Haruyuki made a deep bow with his head.

Controlling the avatar with image called ?Incarnate System?, learning that was his only remaining hope. However many days or weeks it takes, he will absolutely learn it.

With that determination burning, Hong Kong made kung-fu movie training scene BGM played in his head, as Haruyuki waited for his first instruction.

—— However.

“...Even saying so, the essence of mind power could be expressed in one word. If that was understood, then anyone can use it.”

“...Ye, yes?”

Sky Raker’s smoothly continued speech, made his knees bent.

“...Ju, just one...? Is that, secret learned then have full mastery?”

“That’s right.”

“Please teach me, that.”

Naturally, after he said that.

“Fine. However, when you meet me next time, only then.”

As if to return that answer, he hurriedly took a step closer.

“N... no, until you teach me, I will not return to the real world!”

“Not met, when we meet, did I not say that? That means...”

There she paused and waved her hand, so Haruyuki took another step closer.

With the sky color hair swaying, the elegant avatar’s right hand softly touched Haruyuki’s back ——.

“Like this.”

And pushed him in a horizontal direction.

“Whaa... Oo... oops...”

Haruyuki stumbled on the grass one, two steps.

On his third step, he stepped on air.

“...Wha.”

“I wish you good luck, Karasu-san.”

The smiling Sky Raker shape, went far away above. To be exact, Haruyuki’s body, dropped out of the top of the 300 meters high tower.

“Wha... wai... waa...”

He flapped both hands like wings in panic, but of course that had no effect. Like that, he was pulled by the virtual gravity and free fall straight down ——.

“Wa... a... a ——”

Haruyuki died.
