Raise a magical girl and then regret it for the rest of your life? !

"I'm sorry... Youyu."

"If I were stronger, maybe I could have saved you."

"If I had noticed you earlier, maybe that wouldn't have happened."

"So, please forgive me, Youyu."

"Forgive me..."

"..."

"Wuyue, are you okay?"

"Wuyue?"

"... Youyu?"

After being unconscious for an unknown period of time, Wuyue heard someone calling her name, and finally opened her eyes with difficulty, sat up, and looked towards the place where the voice came from.

Then she saw Bai Yu, whose expression was almost the same as hers at this time, and she was equally tired.

Seeing Wu Yue who had woken up and looked dazed, Bai Yu breathed a sigh of relief, pursed her lips, and said:

"Wu Yue, you finally woke up, this is really great, after bringing you back, you were unconscious for a long time, I was just considering whether to take you to the hospital."

"..."

Seeing that Wu Yue did not respond, Bai Yu was silent for a while, and then said with a forced smile:

"Anyway, Wu Yue, eat something first, I'll go outside to get it for you, you just lie down on the bed and have a good rest, you should be very tired after fighting for so long, right?"

"..."

"Yeah."

After listening to Bai Yu's words, Wu Yue nodded and agreed to her without saying anything.

"...Then I'll get something for you."

"Okay."

Then she lay down, continued to lie on the bed, looked at the ceiling, did not close her eyes, just looked at it quietly.

It was as if nothing had happened, she just stared at the ceiling, in a daze as usual.

However, as she stared at it, a tear flowed from the corner of her eye without her noticing.

Then, the tears continued to flow.

"...I'm sorry, Youyu."

"...I'm sorry."

Looking at the ceiling, her expression did not change, but Wu Yue, with tears in her eyes, murmured so.

Just now, in her dream just now, she once again dreamed of the scene where she personally killed "Youyu" in order to stop "Youyu".

Although she did not succeed in killing "Youyu", the dream kept repeating, as if telling her "You have killed the person you want to protect, and there is no turning back".

She was immersed in this nightmare scene until she was awakened by Bai Yu.

And now, she did not think of the dream.

She remembered that when she really did it in reality, at that moment, "Youyu"'s burning body.

"..."

Failed.

Everything failed.

At that time, it was agreed to protect Youyu.

But at the last moment...

It was relying on her, relying on her own hands to "kill" Youyu.

When she thought of this, Wu Yue's tears began to flow more and more.

Then, she gradually went from being quiet at the beginning, to sobbing, to crying loudly.

Her current situation may be the same as those people.

After the death of a loved one, in a short period of time, you may not cry, feel sad, but just feel numb.

But after seeing everything related to it, you will always unconsciously recall what he looked like when he was still there.

Recalling, recalling, realizing that he no longer exists——

Sadness rushed to my heart.

Not to mention...

For her, for Wu Yue, the most important person is You Yu.

"..."

"You keep saying sorry, Wu Yue."

"It makes me feel a little... Alas."

Bai Yu, who was outside the door, actually took the food early and stood in front of the door, but after hearing Wu Yue's crying, she hesitated for a while and did not open the door and enter the room immediately.

Instead, she just listened to her crying and her "self-blame" outside the door.

"That snake knight, what he said was true."

Wu Yue, really killed You Yu with her own hands to stop him.

"If I could have been earlier..."

Thinking of this, Bai Yu couldn't help but clench her fists.

"..."

After a moment of silence, she took a deep breath, then wiped her eyes with her arm, turned her head and looked at a small mirror hanging on the wall next to her, looking at herself in the mirror with red eyes.

After confirming that she was no longer crying, she opened the door without hesitation and walked into the room.

After leaving, Wu Yue was still crying, but after seeing her coming, she cried less.

After she approached, the crying stopped completely.

"... Sorry."

Looking at the silent Wu Yue, Bai Yu sat on a stool nearby and said in a low voice.

"I didn't get to you in time at that time."

"You went through such a thing."

"No, you don't have to apologize, Bai Yu."

Looking at Bai Yu, who was tense, lowered her head, and trembling, Wu Yue shook her head, interrupting her idea of ​​continuing to apologize.

"Rather, I should thank you."

"...Thank me?"

"Yes."

Looking at Bai Yu, whose face was strange and complicated after hearing her words, Wu Yue forced a smile and said:

"At that time, because of my mistake, I failed to protect You Yu, causing him to be controlled by the Night Demon and turned into a negative beast."

"I couldn't find a way to save him. I tried many ways, but couldn't do it."

"In the end... I had no choice but to kill him to prevent him from hurting others."

"..."

"But I didn't do it."

Wu Yue looked at her fists and shook her head.

"I can't let go of my attachment to Youyu, and I can't bear to kill him with my own hands."

"So, I failed."

After a pause, Wu Yue continued:

"Now we can come back here, it should be because, Bai Yu, you killed Youyu, right?"

"I won't blame you, on the contrary... I have to thank you."

"Because I can't do these, even the promise he made to me at that time, I can't do it."

"So, thank you."

"..."

After listening to Wu Yue's words, Bai Yu was silent for a long time, and finally sighed and said:

"No, Wu Yue, you didn't understand the situation after you fell into a coma. Although I don't understand it very well, there is one thing I can still be sure of."

"What?"

Looking up, Bai Yu looked at Wu Yue who pretended to be strong and said:

"Youyu... is actually still alive."
