Past Arc ⑲

Dragons are the supreardless of whether or not that’s actually true, that’s what the dragons themselves believe And so, there is no way that such supreons would not be dissatisfied with the current situation where Sariel is restraining them In the past, Gyurie was the sa on this planet for a particular objective, not due to charity They couldn’t let the humans take actions that were contrary to that objective without responding Even if that would result in hostilities with Sariel

「So, you have been tasked with stalling ht back at hiaze away The location is the reception rooe Gyurie was a frequent visitor to the orphanage, and would normally si souided Sariel to where Gyurie was Anyone could tell that Gyurie’s state was strange at a glance, not just Sariel With hi such suspicious behaviour, even souess that so hions’to do?」

「I will obstruct them of course That is ave an immediate reply As normal

「Is that really your mission?」

However, in response to Gyurie’s follow-on question, Sariel wasn’t able to give an immediate reply

「It can’t be the case that you don’t understand the i If your mission is to protect the pri the hu this planet be the appropriate actions for you to take?」

Lifting his head, Gyurie continues to talk as if having resolved hi the hu too far However, it would be better to take so as that really is yourher Sariel cannot look away froin to speak either

Sariel herself are that her actions were not optimal However, she hadn’t doubted those actions until now Sariel is a stray angel Her existence is like that of a device without any will of her own, that does nothing except to faithfully carry out her mission To be more precise, she has beco by her oill, except when carrying out her mission Just like a machine, she continues to naively process only the data that was established beforehand Even if there is a bug in the data that was established beforehand A machine cannot doubt itself In the same way, even while Sariel is aware that her actions were not optimal, she hadn’t doubted those actions until now

However, just now, fros this way really okay? For Sariel, this is the first time she had ever doubted Thus far, Sariel has continued to think about and take actions for only one thing – how best to carry out her mission hts are nothing other than a deviation froinalon this planet froods don’t interfere, there is nothing more for her to do Despite that, Sariel has taken the initiative to intervene with od From that moment on, she has practically abandoned her mission herself Despite that, Sariel had continued to believe that she was correctly carrying out her mission without any doubts Then, Gyurie had tossed out that question Due to that, Sariel experienced doubt about her own actions for the first time in her life

「Sariel Isn’t it about ti yourself to your et your mission, and live however you wish」
