Interlude IV
His COMP was destroyed and broken, but he still had his phone, despite rarely using it. Putting in a code for no return messages, there was something he needed to do, as he looked up at the building before him.
To: Takatora I don’t think I’ll be returning home after all this is done and over with. I’ll let you know where I go, but I need to leave for some time. I can’t expect to live normally right after all myself and my alternate has done. Take care of yourself Takatora. Don’t do anything too stupid while I’m away.
To: Hibiki I’m sorry you had to return to the hell of Demons because of me. But I’m confident you’re doing fine to survive. I’m going to end it. I’m not going to let you and everyone else suffer because of my power again. Keep fighting Hibiki. I know you can survive through this.
To Argilla I’ll have to ask you later if the armies of Demons that came through is like what you went through. You’re still a very big mystery to me honestly. It’s nice to have something to be confused over though. How about we meet up again and swap stories after this? I know you’re one of the most fit to be fine through all this, but still. Keep safe Argilla.
To: Agnes ............ I’m sorry. For everything.
To: Naoya Hah. I don’t even know why I’m sending this. You probably don’t even have access yet. And you’ve probably known for as long as I have what I’m going to do. God’s curse is looking pretty good through all this. I’m glad you’re here Naoya. It makes what I have to do much easier for some reason.
With his messages sent, he put the phone down on the ground. There wouldn’t be any return messages, and he had no need for it any more. All that was left was the end of the game. There were no secret bosses, there was no extra combat. For him, once this was finished, the game was over. He could close the system, and go back to his normal days. This was the finale for the story, and soon the curtain would close.
