Sigh...
She really has changed a lot over these years...
She is different from before...
But...
That was sothing that couldn't be helped...
Looking at Ei, who seed to be struggling to speak before her eyes, Makoto suddenly recalled events from hundreds of years ago.
She hadn't wanted to abandon Ei, nor did She want to abandon Her people.
But there was no choice; the Her of that ti had to go to that place.
Therefore, an Inazuma without Her could only be taken over by Ei.
She must have been very tired all these years...
To be honest, the current Makoto really wanted to acknowledge Ei right then and there.
But She held back, because She wanted to see what kind of Ei a version of herself feigning amnesia would perceive.
Mm...
Let's start now...
Knowing She couldn't just stand there in a daze any longer, Makoto decided to act according to what She had discussed with Miss i earlier.
Because Miss i had said that she acted very coldly in front of Ei previously, so the current Her must also do the sa.
Furthermore, there was the matter of the Visions; currently, from Ei's perspective, they were taken by Her.
Honestly, She never expected Ei to do such a thing.
Although the Eternity the two understood was different, there was no need to go to this extent.
Of course, the current Her had amnesia, so She couldn't ntion this matter yet.
"It's you again."
After preparing what She was going to say, Makoto looked at Ei and spoke faintly.
Regardless of anything, Miss i had t Ei before, so She definitely had to say sothing similar.
Is it you?
Makoto?
As if She hadn't heard the other party's words, Ei was still pondering whether the person before Her was truly Makoto.
It couldn't be helped; the person in front of Her now felt too familiar, as if Makoto was standing right in front of Her.
"If there is nothing else, I won't keep you company."
Seeing that Ei had no reaction, Makoto made a move to leave.
She knew that Ei was definitely wondering right now if She was really Makoto. However, there was no helping it; according to the script, She currently had amnesia, so She couldn't behave as She did before. She even had to be a bit colder.
"Wait!"
Just as Makoto expected, Ei finally spoke up.
"Do you need sothing?"
Makoto, who had just turned around, turned back to look at Ei, her tone remaining extrely cold.
"Soone said you took the Visions from the Statue, so... I hope you can cooperate with for an investigation."
After thinking about it, Ei decided to use the theft of the Visions to communicate with the young girl nad Acheron before Her.
But in reality, the current Her didn't care where the Visions actually were; She only wanted to use this as a pretext to communicate with this person. That was the most important thing.
"That's right, I took them."
Regarding Ei's question, Makoto admitted it directly. She had already discussed this with Miss i.
Since Ei already knew about this matter, it was best to admit it directly now.
And more importantly, She wanted to see what reaction Ei would have to this.
Would She try to arrest Her?
Or sothing else?
Ei: "!"
She actually admitted it directly...
Hearing the other party's words, Ei was sowhat surprised.
Originally, according to Her assumption, the other party wouldn't admit to this matter, but She was clearly mistaken.
In that case...
What should She do?
Take action directly?
But...
Unable to stop Herself from frowning, Ei was montarily at a loss for what to do.
During their last contact, She had already realized that the opponent's strength was not inferior to Her own.
So if they were to fight, She might not necessarily be able to keep the other party there. It was even possible that She wouldn't be able to defeat the other party.
And at the start, Her idea was to let the other party stay and interact with Her more, so She could determine if it was really Makoto.
But now that the other party had directly admitted to taking the Visions, it was Her turn to make a response.
Regardless of the outco, She didn't want to let the other party leave just like that.
It couldn't be helped; the feeling the other party gave Her was becoming more and more like Makoto.
What to do?
Still not saying anything, Ei was thinking about the best course of action.
"Then why did you take them?"
After thinking it over, Ei finally decided to follow up on this question and have a proper exchange with the other party.
"Then why did you take them?"
Makoto did not answer Ei's question; instead, She countered with a question of Her own.
She wanted to hear what kind of answer Ei would give to this.
Ei: "..."
It had to be said, faced with this question, Ei fell silent.
Of course, if anyone else had asked Her this question, She absolutely wouldn't be like this.
But the person asking Her this question now looked so much like Makoto, and very likely was Makoto, so She fell silent.
She knew very well that the Eternity Makoto pursued was different from Her own.
But...
Makoto died...
So She felt that the kind of Eternity Makoto pursued was wrong.
If Makoto had been like Her, perhaps She wouldn't have died.
So...
The so-called running forward to pursue so wish is completely unnecessary!
Therefore, only by stopping, only in this way can beautiful things be preserved, and no accidents will happen.
"I am doing this for their own good. Is it not good to just live an ordinary life like this? The lifespan of mortals is but a fleeting mont; there is absolutely no need to pursue anything."
Having thought a lot in Her heart, Ei gave Her answer.
"Then do they feel it is good? Are they grateful to you?" Makoto asked again.
Ei: "..."
Ei fell silent again.
Whether those mortals felt it was good or not, She naturally knew.
But...
This was just them not knowing the pros and cons of the matter.
If they had encountered that kind of thing like She had, then they would naturally know the benefits of Her approach.
If one has to wait until they have lost sothing to understand how to cherish it, then everything is already too late.
"Because they haven't lost anything yet, so they don't understand..."
"But they have already been robbed of their Visions."
Before Ei could finish speaking, Makoto had already interrupted Her like this.
In fact, They had had similar discussions before, and the result was that neither could convince the other.
Of course, the Ei of that ti still resided behind the scenes, so the discussion between Them only existed between Them and did not produce any impact on Inazuma.
Ei: "!"
Makoto?!
Just as Ei was preparing to refute, She suddenly realized that this was so similar to the discussions She and Makoto used to have, and She imdiately felt that the person in front of Her was Makoto.
"You are Makoto, right?"
This ti Ei couldn't hold back and asked directly.
"My na is Acheron. I am not this 'Makoto' you speak of. I hope you do not mistake for soone else."
Regarding Ei's sudden question, Makoto denied it directly.
After saying this sentence, She turned and walked away.
Actually, She had acted a bit too obviously just now, so now She had to leave.
