I, who was upset about nursery rhymes, followed Marieta through the academy without hesitation.
âMarieta, how did you know such a quiet street?â
I called out to Marieta while listening to the sound of the commotion that could be heard in the distance. After entering the premises of the academy, Marieta was pushing forward with a safe path that would not get involved in the riot.
âBecause Iâve been living in the academy dozens of times. Iâm used to this entrance ceremony. I know other hidden passages and the location of the forbidden library that was hidden and forgotten, so if you have any problems or want to know anything in the academy, please ask me.â
Is there a forbidden library that was hidden and forgotten? It seems Ursch-kun and Geese would be happy. But it didnât appear on any route of the game, so itâs probably loop knowledge other than the future introduced in the game route. How many times has Marieta repeated the world?
âAfter all, does Marieta want to get out of the loop?. . . Thatâs right.â
âYes. I guess Iâm already tired. Iâm happy to see the person who broke up with me in my previous life again, and it can be saved in another life, but itâs still different from the person I met in my previous life. The memories and the joy we shared will also be lost from the other party. At times like that, Iâm really sad and I want to cry helplessly.â
Certainly, even if itâs just a scenario I saw in the game, Iâve overcome quite a lot of cases, such as the Colors Collector, the Bloody Maiden case, or the escort of the second prince of the Garo Empire, while raising everyoneâs likability, I canât do it if I go back and start over that memory and trust from the first meeting. Itâs hard just to imagine that you remember but everyone else doesnât, but how much did Marieta, who actually repeated it, suffer?
Although I asked, when I didnât reply to Marietaâs response, she looked back at me with a slightly embarrassed smile.
âBut this time, Iâm happy to meet my cute child Bella and my new husband. Itâs not all painful. I was able to meet Isabella this time. I have such new encounters and new happiness, so I can live strong even in painful repetitions. I know itâs not all painful, so I was able to come until now without breaking my heart. Thatâs why I will live hard until the last life of the repetition.â
Saying that, when Marieta returned to the front of me, she gently put her forehead to my forehead.
âThatâs why Isabella. Even if you donât know how to get me out of the loop this time, donât worry about it. I certainly want to get out of this loop. But I donât know the reason or cause, but this is also my situation and my fight. If I had given up, I wouldnât have met Isabella, who was different from usual this time, and a lot of things have changed since before the start of the academy. You finally found the light of my hope. Now that I met you this time, I can still do my best.â
And if this time doesnât work, will Marieta fight alone next time? Will you re-bond many times, look for an endless esit, and repeat it alone in search of different results? I donât know if my personality will be there again. Considering that I didnât have memories of my previous life in Marietaâs lives so far, I donât know if Marieta will meet me next time, and even if I have memories of my previous life in the next life, I donât know if I will have memories of this moment.
Marieta is the only one to remember.
âMarieta. Iâll cooperate with you. While we can go to the academy together, we do a lot of research on loops, and while we graduate and go on a peddling trip around the world, we will continue to find out if there is any information in the new lands. And the great sage that Marieta was worried about, who seems to be related to the collapse of the world.â
I feel like there are too many missions, but Marieta has been working hard on her own until now. If we split up, we may be able to gather more information.
âThank you Isabella. If this time doesnât work and I repeat it again, I wonât forget the you this time.â
âYou canât say that now, Marieta. Since I received a quest, Iâm going to complete the quest for the rest of my life. Marieta must be tired too, but she hasnât thought about the following yet.â
âThatâs right. If you think about the next from the beginning, what will work wonât work.â
I said âI received a questâ lightly like a game, but how can I challenge it in a real world where I canât save and there is no capture information? If I fail, she will be forced to choose âfrom the beginningâ instead of me. This is really not an otome game. Itâs a genre fraud. No, even though itâs a different world, itâs not a game, itâs real.
Well, if you think about it seriously, youâll feel depressed, so letâs think about it like a game. The quest Iâm currently accepting is:
-Investigate the collapse of the world where a great sage is said to be involved
-Stop the collapse of the world
-Figure out the cause of the Marieta loop and release Marieta from the loop
Thereâs three. . .
As my individual quest:
-Graduate safely with Ursch-kun and get married
-Do something about the deadly sin king skill to prevent demonization
Thatâs right. Marieta, who was the heroine of âLove Magicalâ, is in this situation, so you can think that Isabellaâs public conviction event in the maiden game Ver1 has already been avoided.
Huh? I noticed something.
The great sage. Heâs called a great sage, so he knows a lot, right? Because heâs a smart person and a wise man. Moreover, Itâs just called âGreatâ, so I think he has a lot of knowledge.
In other words, if I can find the great sage, I can ask, âAre you involved in the collapse of the world? Have you ever heard of the Deadly Sin King skill? Do you have any information about Marietaâs loop? Or do you think you can find out a lot about whether youâve ever heard about someone whoâs planning to make me a demon king?â Even if the great sage doesnât know everything, I can get a clue, right?
âMarieta. I thought of a good thing.â
âHuh? What is it?â
âLetâs capture the great sage alive!!â
âEh?â
âIâm going to capture the great sage alive!! That way, the situation will move forward to solve most problems!!â
âEh. . . Oh, yeah. Thatâs right. . . Yeah!! Thatâs right! Thatâs true. Isabella, letâs catch the great sage!!â
