My Childhood Friend Who Dumped Me and My Ex-girlfriend Are in the Same Class

#23

“I was only planning to see you for one day.”

“This is not enough. I still have a lot of questions.”

“So, is it okay if I look at it a little more?”

“… … Uh, don’t die yet.”

“Isn’t that a thing of the past anyway?”

“… How can humans be so weak?”

“… … Well, I like that the most. Whoops.”

#24

I raced through the deep night streets.

Carrying the fallen senior on his back, holding on to his body so that his body would not shake even a little, he raised his magical powers and created a stormy wind, and Mew rushed to the nearest temple of the sun.

‘Senior, senior… … !’

Tears fell and fluttered in the sky in the opposite direction in which Mew passed. He kept his mouth shut and focused on running, but there was nothing he could do about the water flowing from his eyes.

have to live I have to save my senior.

You can’t die like this.

The old man’s wounds are too serious. If your senior dies here, you will be the last person to hurt you the most. Just thinking about such a future made Mew warm as if his heart would be ripped apart.

Yeah, I don’t even know what I’m going to pay for it. Isn’t there only one answer other than to follow the path of the seniors? The apology and words of forgiveness that I haven’t done properly yet… … Shouldn’t it be something to hand over? Whether it was in this world or in the afterlife.

No, negative thoughts are not good.

Seniors can live. certainly.

Only by thinking like that can you survive.

How long have you been running since you left the square?

In the distance, the appearance of the temple began to appear little by little. Mu increased the speed even more.

Nearby objects appear and then quickly disappear behind Mew. A wind as fierce as a blade scratched Mew’s cheeks. He tucked his hair into the muffler and fixed it firmly so that his hair would not disturb the senior.

The Temple of the Sun, located alone on a large site. While the dazzling statue was shining softly from the top, Mew did not stop running and reached the front door of the temple and raised a hand.

bang! bang! bang!

“anybody home! Are you there! Priest! please… ”

Mew cried and cried. The old man’s breath felt from his back was very light and faint.

Gradually I could clearly feel the embers of my senior’s life extinguishing, so Mew cried out with a pounding heart and a more watery voice.

“Help me! Please, please, save me! Senior, senior… Please, are you there! please save me! Senior, please save me… … !”

Are you not praying until late today? I don’t know how the inside of the temple works.

But it was already midnight. Even though it looked dark from the outside, it could have been that most of them were asleep or doing sacred work somewhere out of sight.

It was probably good

I had to save my senior. somehow.

bang! bang! bang!

After knocking on the door for a while, there was no response.

no.

If it’s like this, if it’s like this… …

“Ahhh… AA AA AA… !”

Mu’s feelings became more urgent.

A cracked and torn cry echoed through the sky.

“People, people die! Save me! still alive! If I don’t get treatment now, I’ll be responsible if I die?! I want you to live! I, I will do anything… please… ! Rescue your seniors darling darling——!!!”

bang! bang! bang!… …

Mew, who had been knocking on the door almost smashingly, felt the power draining away. Mew began to slowly sink to the floor with tears streaming down her distorted face. Feeling the gentle warmth of his senior, whose breathing gradually became shallower, on his back, Mew resented everything in the world.

What the hell happened, senpai? Who made you like this… …

… … I can’t forgive you.

I can’t forgive everything that made my seniors like this, but it was me who couldn’t forgive them even more.

So it didn’t happen. Even if your senior survives like this, you’ve made a hole in your senior’s heart that you can’t stand next to him any longer.

I have to apologize. I gave everything, body and mind, to pay for the sin of betraying my beloved senior… … must do it

For that to happen, seniors have to live.

Because it’s good, just like when you saved the old me, save your seniors too. No, please save me.

I’m begging you to do this. please.

God… …

“Uhhh… Whoa… … ”

——It was then.

In front of Mew who sat down in front of the door and cried.

… … profit.

The door of the temple did not open even after knocking for a long time.

Finally, it opened slowly with a sound.

Mew gently lifted her weeping face.

“Even though I am with the Lord… We too are human beings with mortality. Shouldn’t we sleep and live, Sister?”

“… Ahh… ?”

The one with his face out through the door.

It was a wrinkled woman with wavy brown short hair.

Wearing a long, pure white robe, meaning that she is a priest who worships the sun god, the woman who saw Mew sitting down and the wretched boy on his back nodded softly.

“… … However, if you do not grant a blessing even after seeing someone close to death with your own eyes, it would be against the will of the Lord who cares for us with kindness. That’s a serious wound. Come in.”

#25

The solemn and solemn interior of the temple.

Regardless of whether the robes got dirty, the priest who took Ezio in his arms and took him somewhere else ordered Mew to wait outside.

“… … ”

Mew was seated on a cold wooden chair.

Finally, he was trembling, holding the small box that the senior had given him to him on his birthday, as if it were a holy thing.

With his head bowed to the floor as if praying in front of the beautiful statue of the sun god hung high above him, he prayed and prayed endlessly.

Waiting for the priest to come out was a hell of a time. Thinking that my senior’s life and death were being divided within me, Mew felt a sense of insecurity that was about to go crazy.

When the priest opened the door, it seemed that it would be difficult to see his face easily. If he read even a little bit of the fate of his seniors from his facial expression, he would eventually collapse according to the result.

That is because the senior managed to save his life, so he collapsed with an excessive sense of relief, or… … He didn’t even want to imagine. On the spot, Mew might generate sharp magical powers and do bad things to my body with my own hands.

trembling hands and legs.

The vibration showed no sign of stopping.

The old man will survive. Surely it will. The priest said he could not guarantee, but he said he would give the best blessing that he could bestow. If I do anything, I will try to ask the Lord directly.

But that was something he didn’t do well. It was the kind of blessing that an ordinary priest couldn’t even try. The woman at the door seemed to have the same sanctity as the high priest.

He was a little reassured, but he still couldn’t let go of the tension. At a moment when Mew closed her eyes for a long time and her whole body was trembling.

profit… …

An echo echoed inside the quiet temple.

Reflexively, Mew turned her head towards it.

“Uh, how did it go… … ?”

“… … ”

Did you come out with a new robe?

The priest, dressed in a clean, pure white robe, opened the closed door and walked slowly towards the Mew.

At first glance, the priest’s expression could not be recognized.

“It seems that the details of the situation will be known after further observation… … As it stands now, it is the only way to sustain life.”

“… … ”

“I wonder how he was breathing. When was your brother lost?”

“I’m fine… I don’t know. But, it wouldn’t have been that long. It must have happened today… … ”

“Is that so.”

The priest spoke quietly.

“It is a miracle to be alive. It’s amazing.”

“That word… … ”

Towards the trembling Mew, who seems a little uneasy.

The priest gave a small reply.

“… We will do our best while miracles happen. However, we cannot guarantee good results, so you will have to prepare your heart.”

“ah… … ”

At those words, Mew’s heart seemed to sink, but the words that he saved his life were really reassuring.

“Thank you, thank you, priest… … ”

“What? Just go back today. The night was deep. I will also give you personal blessings so that the path to death alone, little sister, is not dangerous, so please wait for a while.”

“Thank you thank you… … ”

Mew was crying and muttering the same thing over and over again.

At the same time, I suddenly felt that way.

It was probably not something that priests would do for free.

“How am I supposed to repay you? … ”

The priest shook his head.

“That is something worth talking about when you are finally alive. Above all, our solar priests love the same human beings with kindness and generosity, so it is unreasonable to be rewarded for what they do. It is enough for you to pray with the Lord every night, wherever you are.”

“ah… … Thank you very much… … ”

“What?”

The priest smiled softly at Mew, who shed tears again with a trembling voice.

#26

Fortunately, the senior’s life was saved.

The feelings of insecurity and guilt that were deeply ingrained in Mew’s heart, and the feelings of guilt that had grown even greater than that, showed no sign of disappearing at all.

Because of that, when the anxiety that rises from time to time overturns Mu’s body and mind, he skips classes scheduled for that day and spends his time idly in the plaza and repeats visiting the temple.

Hearing the news of the senior, who was still unconscious, he sat down in a chair and offered a devout prayer in front of the statue of the sun god Hyperion. Only with the will to save the senior. There was no time to focus on anything other than that.

However, if there was only one… … It was hatred for all the incidents that made the senior like that.

I couldn’t remember the details of the conversation that day because I was too busy, but I think my senior said that. My heart still shudders when I think of that time, but I had to figure out what I needed to know for sure.

Rubia.

A name that is becoming somewhat cursed.

His name was contained in every word the senior barely spit out with a breath that seemed to cut off.

being kidnapped by someone

Did you say you were trying to save me?

Did you say you saved it in the end?

In the process, did the senior become like that?

… … In conclusion, it wasn’t Rubia’s fault. According to what the senior said, that older sister must also have been a victim. Mew knew something about it, too.

Rumors circulating in the academy secretly. There was a story that Rubia, who had been to the traditional training camp of the Ministry of Magic, and a senior who graduated from the Ministry of Magic had disappeared from noon to night on November 19th.

Although the details were not known, someone said that it was a pretty big event that the news spread not only to Lorsen Academy, but also to the great tower of Akasha and the Great Hall in Helios, the capital of the empire.

The old man was involved in that case. certainly.

… … By the way.

The existence of the senior there was unknown.

Rubia, her sister was kidnapped. The old man said he was saved. until it got so bad.

But, why the hell didn’t the senior’s name appear in the backstory of the incident?

Why was the graduate of the Magic Department recognized for some kind of contribution after about four days after the incident and ascended to the rank of official wizard belonging to the Star of Akasha?

Did the senior just sit there, and the truth is, his whole body was shattered without any help? Was it only through the actions of that senior magician that rescued that older sister? …

All the veiled truths would be revealed only by the seniors waking up. So, without hesitation, Mu went to the temple today and offered a prayer.

When that condition lasted about a week.

Mew, who invariably missed class in the afternoon and went to the temple, was able to hear one good news and one bad news from the priest who had been waiting inside, unlike usual.

“… … Me, really, really?!”

First.

… … The old man regained consciousness.

In other words, it was completely alive.

As soon as he heard those words, Mu lost strength in his legs and involuntarily sat down. I was so relieved that even tears that suddenly burst out of my eyes were dripping down.

Then he said, “Now is not the time to be like this, where is your senior?” To Mew, who clings to the priest and ejaculates, asking him to meet him immediately, the priest suddenly made an unknown expression.

This was the second news.

The priest who carefully removed Mew.

He took something out of his pocket and muttered it.

“The incarnation of miracles… … He told me to give it to my sister if he ever came to visit me.”

A pure white envelope with the engraving of the Temple of the Sun.

Mew wants to know what this is.

Without a word, he opened the envelope and opened it on the spot.

“… … ah.”

Every time I read it down, one letter at a time.

Slowly, he opened his eyes.

“… … senior… ”

He tried desperately to stop crying so as not to make a mournful sound from his throat, which was starting to sting, but in the end he had no choice but to quietly let out a drop of silver beads in front of the priest who had his mouth shut.

“To Mu”

Ezio’s letter written in fine handwriting.

It was filled with gratitude and regret.

… …

The senior had already fully recovered two days ago.

It was after he had submitted an application for resignation to the Lorsen Academy, and although it was not yet at the time of writing the letter, he said that he would also leave the house he was living in. By the time I read the letter, I thought all my belongings were already organized.

Also, he told me not to worry about his physical condition anymore, as he is very well and healthy. I told you not to worry. You said you don’t have to worry about me anymore.

so… …

The words of thanks continued.

Thank you for loving me with all my heart more than anyone else. Thanks to you, I had a fun time that doesn’t fit into the fountain.

If you hadn’t been by my side, I would have dropped out of the academy long ago.

He said that he didn’t feel bad for the existence of you for a single moment.

You have always been a person of strength to me, as you said, and a very precious existence that supported me, who was about to collapse due to the opening of a gap.

A cute and lovable junior with a pretty name, Mew, said that he was probably the one who will be remembered for a long time in his life.

such a person,

Thank you for being my first lover,

I’m so sorry I died because it made me cry.

The things I said earlier were of no use even if I said them in a letter. The sincerity that I realized late and was able to express at a later time seemed to have lost its value.

so.

You said you must apologize.

… … Unlike me like this.

You said there is absolutely no need to blame yourself.

It’s only my fault… … He said that it was his fault for not having everything, and it was the natural words of a pathetic man who couldn’t keep even a promise to make your birthday happy.

As a lover, she said that she was sorry for not being able to take care of every little thing and not taking care of it. He also said that he was sorry for not being able to repay you the same who only looked after me. So no matter what you said, I dared to accept it. that was normal

That’s why you said you don’t have to blame yourself for anything.

Because everything was his fault.

As an individual and as a man, there were so many shortcomings… … Because I was such an ugly me, I constantly apologized in that way for not being able to repay someone who truly loved me once.

Thank you for being with me all this time.

I’m sorry I did you wrong, I said.

I’ve done so many things I’m sorry for, and in the end I hurt you a lot, but I said that I no longer have the right to stand by your side again. I’m so sorry, I’m so sorry, I owe you so many times that I can’t list them all———

“I’m sorry again,” said the senior.

To return all the rewards… …

He said he was very tired now.

therefore.

This letter, he said, would probably be his last words as Ezio Cranil, Mew’s lover.

To my junior Mew, who was always grateful and lovely.

To Mew, who always looked at me.

and.

———To my lover, Mew, whom I loved.

I’m sorry I can’t be with you any more.

It might be a harsh word, though.

I can’t even ask for forgiveness.

Please don’t look for yourself anymore.

Even if I can’t dare to ask you to stop forgetting me, I hope that it will make you happy when you meet someone better than me… …

You, who must have been hurt a lot because of me, I hope that you will be happy now that I, who caused you such pain, will not be by your side… …

I don’t even know if it’s really the right thing to dodge, run away, and walk away from you.

He said he couldn’t survive if he didn’t do it now.

so,

It has become impossible to stand by your side again.

Because, I’m sorry… …

From the end of the first semester of my sophomore year with you, from the day of December 23, when I became a lover with you, until now, I said that I was very, very grateful… … As much as I was grateful for that, I hope you are happy.

Your desire to connect with each other.

I’m sorry I couldn’t finish it.

And, thank you.

I love you to sleep

You and me too.

——I loved you.

The words that I can now contain.

After today, it has become impossible to contain.

… … In the end, I said that I only hurt you.

I’d rather not be by your side like this.

It will be more beneficial for you.

No, it would be better for me too… …

It’s been a really long time.

Many memories have been accumulated

Seriously, I was happy.

for us who were,

Let’s end it all, he said one last time.

… … With a word of thanks and sorry once again, the senior ended the letter with that.

#27

“… … ”

I couldn’t say anything.

Mew slowly covered her mouth with her hand.

at the end of the letter.

Before the drops of water dripping from Mew’s eyelids could reach them, there were already moist and stained spots here and there.

My vision was so blurry that I couldn’t see ahead.

Nevertheless, Mew folded the letter in her arms.

———Tak Tak Tak Tak Tak!

He turned his back from the temple and ran.

The destination was already decided.

Upon returning to the academy, where classes were in full swing, Mew went to the dean who had scouted him.

– what what what… Something… … ? mu student?

I recklessly broke into the dean’s office and checked with the dean, who was drinking coffee, whether a third-year student named Ezio Cranil had dropped out.

As a result.

The application has already been received.

The work was fast.

Unfortunately, Ezio Cranil was no longer a member of the Larsen Academy… …

Mew, who slammed the door open and ran out again, this time headed to the house of his senior, whom he had only visited once.

A room in which I lived alone with a reasonable fee in the vicinity.

–bang! bang! bang!

Even after knocking on the door for a long time, no sound was heard.

——Cheer up… bang!

Mew, who had broken the doorknob and turned it around, opened the door wide and hurriedly looked inside.

“senior… … !”

Truly, it was so empty.

“… … ”

For a moment, it was as hard as a stone.

dump.

Mew, who was breathing heavily, collapsed on the spot.

Senior… …

was nowhere to be seen.

“… … Ezio, senpai… ”

I quietly called out the name I couldn’t find anymore.

Mu silently covered his face with both hands.

really.

that letter.

… … It was the old man’s last appearance.
