My Journey: The Reason Why I Will Live

….

Varakiel: alright, lets move.

Granberia: 2 days by foot...it will be nice to camp after so long~.

Varakiel: ah you're right haha.

Megumin: camping?

Varakiel: mhm in our world, since we had to go to travel around the world camping was pretty much our way of life, after that we settled in our castle and so far we haven't camped yet. Is quite nostalgic for us~.

Varakiel says as he smiles to granberia.

….

Varakiel and party found a green-haired girl sitting on an outcropping of rock near a forest entrance. She was waving as if she noticed everyone.

Varakiel: a monster.

Granberia: really? Her disguise is very good.

Her right ankle was wrapped in blood soaked bandages. The sight made the other girls wince.

Varakiel: don't get close to her she's a monster...leisure girl. 

Varakiel says as he looks through his copy of the bestiary 

…..

Granberia: wow, she is even worse than an arachne lord.

Granberia says with a shocked expression

Varakiel: yeah, she actively weaks you and kills you while the victim is willing.

Megumin: b-but…

Varakiel: *sigh* no mercy, you don't know how much people she has killed but i can tell by her aura she has killed at least 15 people.

Yunyun: so horrible….

Varakiel: I'll do it….

Granberia: no …..i will , i know how big is your heart varakiel.

Varakiel: i leave it to you….i-i can't look anyone but a hurt child in there…

Granberia: i know.

Granberia then walks up to her 

Granberia:....begone.

Then granberia with a single merciful slash kills her….

.....

Then night came.

Varakiel: alright time to make the camp.

Varakiel then takes out the old camp he always used in monmosu quest.

Megumin: woah so much stored with magic.

Yunyun: varakiel secret family technique is really powerful.

Darkness: hmmm…..this camp has a ton of history.

Varakiel: mhm, indeed this is the camp that i always used in my world, how much time since i took it…..hmm ah that time i went to train specially to the mountains with luka 2 months ago.

Granberia: ah yeah the scaling training, we all fell a lot back then….

Varakiel: take any tent you like.

Megumin: alright we'll sleep in this one.

Yunyun: mhm.

Darkness: then ill take this on- aaaaaaaaahh

Varakiel: hm what is it?

Darkness: wha- what is that!?

Varakiel: hm? Oh? Ho ohhhhhhh…so this is where you were angel halo...

Varakiel picks up angel halo…

Granberia: oi, i thought both of you said that you sealed it to never be used again.

Varakiel: ah well we actually forgot where we put it teehee.

Granberia smacks varakiel.

Megumin: w-what is that?

Varakiel: as you can notice is a sword.

Darkness, megumin, yunyun: no,no, it doesn't look close to that.

Varakiel: but it is, this sword was used by my little brother to fight the heavens, oh well i can use it, can be useful to deal with humans…

The blade subtly shines.

Varakiel: oh? Heinrich?

Suddenly a soul manifest…

Varakiel: oi, what about the cycle of rebirth and all that….

Heinrich: oh hehe, that takes at most 200 years to happen my Friend for now i try to enjoy my time with alisematreia…

Black alice: hello~.

Black alice: well i linked my soul to yours before dying hehehe.

Varakiel:...

Granberia:??? The hell is going on this is so sudden!

The others nods aswell.

Varakiel: ah well let me explain, as you know heinrich body mysteriously disappeared right? Well his body is in angel halo, that's why he can manifest after his soul resting after a year, and black alice well…what she said….

Heinrich: hehe, why are you surprised my friend you knew this was going to happen~.

Heinrich says with a carefree and relaxed expression.

Varakiel: yeah, in our world!

Heinrich: right~.

Black alice: hehehe, so that's why you were so weird, you weren't a human from our world, interesting hehehe~.

Granberia: you must be heinrich right?

Heinrich: yeah, is an honor to meet you granberia.

Varakiel: you have been spying us using angel halo isn't?

Heinrich: hey don't call it spy, call it spectate.

Black alice: yeah you make us sound like the bad guys.

Varakiel: black alice…. you were the bad guy.

Black alice:....oh my, you're right hehehe.

Salamander: oi what the hell is going here i just woke up and i found heinrich and black alice in front of me…

Varakiel: ah well…

Salamander: i see so you left angel halo in the camp…..dumbass.

Heinrich: oh, no wonder i couldn't find you for all this time..

Varakiel: ah right i forgot! *Cof* this cute guy right here is heinrich, an old hero of 500 years from my world….and she is black alice an evil monster lord from 500 years ago and 1 year ago…
