Chapter 249 (Self Edited) Arbitrator and Official History Part 2

The reason why Lina was digging the ground silently was because of the slight respect remaining. No matter how much that person was called a Demon, there was no such a thing as being left alone in a place like this. It would be too sad.

Well, Im not sure if I have the qualification to do that. (Lina)

Half of the reason why the person died was because of her. Lina understood that fact firmly, so in the first place, she hadnt enough interaction to mourn the death.

This time was their third meeting, and she knew the name for the first time today. Maybe, they could be friends if they talked more properly, but that was already too late.

The person Aina died, and she obtained Ainas power. And thanks to that, Lina was able to defeat the enemy, and that was why she was in the present moment.

That was all she could do.

Now this place should be fine, right? (Lina)

When a hole of a certain size was completed, Lina nodded satisfactorily and stood up. From now on, Ainas body must be carried there. Ainas body was rather big, so its a bit difficult to carry her, but she couldnt say it.

She didnt say it to anyone, and she decided that by herself. In that case, she had to do this.

While thinking about it, Lina tried to walk, and suddenly, she tilted her head. She felt like someone was watching her.

Is it you, Wu-san? (Lina)

She muttered asking, but there was no response.

However, she said that she would take a break since she was tired, so it wasnt strange in itself. What was strange in her line of sight was it never disappears. Although she felt like she was being seen from somewhere near her, she felt like she was being seen from far away at the same time.

However, she didnt feel unpleasant, so she left it alone. More importantly, she had to mourn. Even if she had to do it alone, there was no mistake that it was better to do it.

When she thought about it, Lina quickly headed for the shadow of rubbles where Ainas body was enshrined.

You have a bad taste. (Lina)

[Is that so? Rather, Im not showing it because I have a bad taste, but Ive said it many times that this is to make you understand the current situation.] (Wu)

To be honest, I really doubt that is the truth. (Lina)

While saying that, Lina who carried something from a hidden place came back. Her body seemed tattered, and the body seemed to be Aina held in both arms was even more tattered. The face was different to the point it didnt retain its original shape, and if she didnt understand the situation, she might not know who that was.

If Nii-sama didnt come at that time, we might have ended up like this No, its highly possible that this was the case. (Lina)

[Hmm, that a.s.sumption is right and wrong.] (Wu)

? What do you mean? (Lina)

There shouldnt be any doubt about that. If Somas help didnt arrive at that time, Aina would be killed, but Lina would be awakened and gained Ainas power to defeat the enemy. Wasnt that correct to a.s.sume that way since she had been told since earlier?

[Before I talk about it, let me answer your question. I dont know the answer. It may or may not have happened. Actually, there is a possibility that she had been awakened at that time, but there is also a possibility that she didnt.] (Wu)

Hmm? What do you mean by that? Does that mean that there is also a possibility that the situation is deviating from what it should be? (Lina)

[That a.s.sumption is right and wrong at the same time. Since the future is uncertain, the official history is nothing more than the future that is likely to come. Its certainly quite possible that trivial things change with some notches, but thats not what Im trying to focus on. It is actually the problem before that happens.] (Wu)

Before that? (Lina)

[Yes. You seem to think that your brother coming to help is the turning point of the future, but thats not the case. After all, he shouldnt exist in the official history.] (Wu)

What? (Lina)

Lina couldnt understand the meaning of those words, and she stopped thinking for a moment.

That was right. Soma was deeply involved in Linas life to the point that she wouldnt be here without him. However, she couldnt believe it when she was told that he shouldnt be there.

The other me didnt say that either. (Lina)

[Her knowledge is based on what I teach. Of course, she doesnt know the things that I havent taught yet. It seems that she is wondering a lot and feeling doubtful.] (Wu)

Why didnt you tell her? (Lina)

The biggest reason is because I wasnt sure. As you know, I have been given the same name as the G.o.d that rules fate. While its at the lowest seat, the power given is almost the same as the authority. However, my authority is valid only for the official history. I can only look into the past of official history, which is located in the past rather than the present. I thought I shouldnt teach much about uncertainties because i dont know whats in the future.] (Wu)

That matter sounded reasonable. Even so, there were still some doubts

[There are certainly a few things I didnt dare to say, but Im going to talk about them as I move on. I think it would be less confusing to talk about it at that time, so I just keep silent. Its not that Im not going to talk at all.] (Wu)

I hope thats the case. (Lina)

Actually, she wasnt convinced at all, but certainly, she had to be convinced first for the time being. If she was still unconvinced even until she went to the end of all this, she would think about it at that time.

While talking about that, Lina had finished burying Aina in front of her eyes. After that, while Lina looked at the scene, she felt like she couldnt say anything.

Anyhow, I dont feel good, I think? In many ways (Lina)

[Have you seen many similar scenes before?] (Wu)

There is no way a friend can be with someone who doesnt even know her face! Besides, Im also here! (Lina)

[Thats true Sorry, but I can only ask you to get used to it. This is just the beginning.] (Wu)

As expected, you really have a bad taste! (Lina)

That was why she was told that it didnt have a bad taste, but she didnt feel like listening. Lina understood what it was trying to do. In other words, it was going to show the official story that she should have followed in the future.

And the sight that she would see next was predictable. She had asked about that as well, and it was certain that her feelings would get worse than this time.

That didnt change the fact that it had a bad taste since it was going to show such a thing to her.

Eh!? What is that!? (Lina)

But before that, something amazing happened. She hadnt moved to the next scene yet, but when Lina, who had finished burial, stood up, her hair color began to change.

She had the same hair color as her, but it started to become reddish and changed to a color close to purple. Maybe the person herself hadnt noticed it yet, so she didnt react in particular, but Lina had seen the changes before her.

She had never heard of something like this happening before.

[Thats the effect of incorporating magic skills. Moreover, it shouldnt be like that if it is Advanced Rank, but this is a special cla.s.s. Its only natural that the color of hair and eyes will be affected.] (Wu)

Is that so? (Lina)

It was the first time she heard of it. No, she had heard that hair and eye color were related to the skills and talents that could be used, but she had never heard something like this so far.

[Hmm is that so? Well, just because you know it, it doesnt mean anything else. Think of it that way. For starters, havent you heard of inheriting abilities from the dead?] (Wu)

I certainly have. (Lina)

It seemed that she could use that power, but she had never used it and didnt think she wanted to use it, so she wasnt conscious of it. However, even if she told so, she hadnt heard that the Human Arbitrator could do such a thing.

Then, it might be possible.

As I said earlier, this is just the beginning. You cant always be so surprised about everything, alright?] (Wu)

I dont really mind, you know. (Lina)

However, even if Lina said that she was tired, it wasnt going to stop what it wanted to show her. It was quite different from what Lina had heard from her, and it felt quite like Sparta.

[She was trying to do her part for some reason. Isnt it natural that the treatment has to change?] (Wu)

Yes, yes, thats right. So, am I still going to watch this? I dont think theres anything to see anymore. (Lina)

[Well, youre right. Then, lets go to the next scene as requested. It is probably the second most painful scene for you.] (Wu)

The moment she heard such words, her field of vision dimmed. Then, the next scene came into view when the light was regained immediately after that.

TLN:

Just bare with me about the confusion until this part is finished. The raw chapter barely differentiate between Lina and Lina. I think its only once or twice, and the rest, I did it myself.

I havent read the rest of the raw of this part, so I cant tell much. Anyhow, I will adjust the chapter if deemed necessary later.
