“Aslan? Ah, that soldier from yesterday? How did he give it?”c9fec32a47891cd1

As expected, it seemed Jade also naturally thought of Aslan as a soldier, just like everyone’s first impression tends to be similar.56159373bf5029e5

“Well? Maybe he efficiently took it out and brought it in advance…?”1a0ff9e963d0c357

“Hmm, no. He just threw it on the floor and left, and I thought my already numb arms and legs would get cut off trying to move.”b50d3a9f662ac32d

Jade spoke gruesome words while smiling softly. It seemed his memory of yesterday was particularly unpleasant. Well, even he wouldn’t easily befriend someone he had shot five times.d41f62101fc596f4

“So what’s your relationship? Seeing how you die at her every word, it seems the lady is the real power. Did you meet here?”02f0f71c71c8b810

“Weren’t we making a fair trade? What will you do for me if I answer?”2c21fc5feabd3797

She blocked the subtly 65e436adf7 probing question from the a14b5f2a66 source. As Jade d55efe10fe shrugged and 430ea03c2b focused on 436f70563a chewing the bc0b5672fd biscuit again, c7d111e2da Liella continued 75bda9a4ba speaking while 96c60caf4e trying not 1c6e33757a to think 645f01c250 about what ed86b4308d kind of c4b0af4b97 relationship she 06c84d3851 had with 703ce177f5 Aslan.7cfdafe25ca83507

“What teams did you meet besides us during the 6 months?”452d135df4904e83

For a moment, the warm green eyes changed. It was like, how should I put it, reminiscent of a palette where various colors had mixed and become murky. It felt like the thick, watery smell trapped in leaves after heavy rain was being released. Maybe this would be a question he wouldn’t answer at all, like the one about monsters…0c6ae56f3e99f653

“Team 25, the elderly team. Team 26, the disabled team. Team 22, the team that attempted suicide three or more times. And Team 30…, presumably the team with erased memories.”7851a2ffadf6ad2b

Liella’s hand, which had been hurriedly taking notes on the suddenly flowing information, froze towards the end. Team 30, what?8aa8c806f7684292

When she raised her 188f41345e head, she felt a cd040361a7 sharp gaze beyond the 649d973191 eye smile.a622345b02cc30dd

“Did I guess well? I had expected there would be at least one such team even before meeting Team 30. It’s a well-known fact that the Andrei Company is in partnership with the Bakuna Company, pioneers in memory erasure.”b1b0562ec0fd2f81

She had no idea what he was talking about. But one thing was clear – he seemed to be doubting her memories. I guess I asked too common-sense questions. Liella shrugged her shoulders as if playing poker, just as Jade had done earlier.111db69df0d92716

“No, I was momentarily taken aback because you were so confident. You’re wrong. We’re a team that’s sick and ill. I already told you that.”15bb6bbd1203d144

“Despite appearances, I’ve seen many people and can tell lies like a ghost just by looking at their eyes. I wonder why it looks sincere.”d7bd7133cb5a27f8

Jade tilted his head innocently, like a child trying to figure out the secret of a magic trick. It might as well look sincere. There was no lie in the answer itself that they were “sick and ill.” Team 30 was originally a terminal team.9027144033b14987

“You mean they fought each other? As far as I know, the exploration ship has enough food for seven people to last 90 days. I think if we set rules well, we could save and survive for a long time.”3ef4e85e1bd77c4f

“90 days? Isn’t that a hypothesis only possible if you’re lucky enough to meet good teammates?”98875b7ba0812c08

Strangely, hearing that made Anton’s face flash through her mind. Jade grinned.8f9879f425c4f412

“Shall we talk about Team 22? Humans who have attempted suicide three or more times. How do you think that type would behave when pushed into an extreme survival situation? Option 1, they think ‘I got lucky’ and achieve their long-desired wish of ending their own lives. Option 2, they suddenly want to live and gain a faint will to survive.”851ee02541624b8e

“Why is option 1 hopeful… never mind. So what was the problem? Was there friction from trying to stop people who wanted to die?”54167f65ccd2090c

“No. I don’t know if you know this, miss. Among people whose lives are ruined, there are sometimes psychopaths who want to ruin other people’s intact lives too. One psychopath set fire to the exploration ship, saying they should all die together.”4f2b14617c47ebac

“Well, yes. What’s worse, the arsonist ran away after setting the fire, so they don’t know what happened. The remaining people were left stomping their feet in front of the burning exploration ship. The flames attracted monsters, and water and food burned away. It took about 3 weeks, I heard.”1da832ca1d84cfd6

“For people who couldn’t stand the thirst to cut the throat of the weakest human and drink their blood.”7201f9cbf076ccdf

She could feel the 34dd827d8f blood draining from her 9b9d0fa8dc face without looking in 5b9c05659b a mirror. It vividly came 99fa7929d4 to mind. The image 72f58c9d61 of flames 69cd96d1cc blazing in 2e950d6372 the darkness e7ada9086b and humans a7e14c888e hiding in ee47d3ff30 the shadows 4b5a6eb7aa out of 7df2087fc1 fear of 73cac58468 monsters.4b9a7b3b30e965b5

Will we become ab628d9cfa like that too? If we stay in 10788292b5 the darkness without guaranteed cd700a7641 food, shelter, and clothing, 565e8d7d96 will we commit murder a7664d9e2b in 3 weeks? Liella was among the weakest of the three. Thinking that the relatively intimate human relationships were maintained because safety and comfort were guaranteed made her feel strange. Aslan and Dylan wouldn’t be like that, but… No, was she sure? How well did she know them? If the three of them were on a small boat in the middle of the ocean without water right now, would they still be good people then?e9e1ef6b02b31c54

“There are even worse stories. Shamita always says that the Abyss is a hole opened to look into the bottom of humanity. Humans pushed to the extreme will do anything. Murder, rape, lies, politics, betrayal. If you want to hear more, at the next meal…”dfe0e3ceb0135ca8

“No. That’s enough.”ee8f1b1a9d5dc9d4

Liella cut him off with a sickened face. If she heard any more, she’d surely want to wash her brain clean. She had thought it strange that Team 28 was so calm despite being tied up and confined. Now she understood. They had been through hell and high water for 6 months, so this was nothing to them. Liella quietly spoke to Jade’s grinning face.2960090c4ba4eada

“You endured for 6 months meeting such people, even with the exploration ship. I can’t fathom what kind of things you’ve been through, but the fact that four out of seven people are still alive proves the leader’s efforts to some extent, I think.”de6e5aaca60cbabd

As she spoke calmly, the smile that had been present on Jade’s face gradually disappeared. Liella took out the second biscuit and held it out to the man who was just silently looking at her.efba4f2114739e1a

“Let’s forget about other people’s stories. When you decide to tell me how you killed the monsters outside, call me then. As you just said, I’ll send you off safely. Um, if you promise not to come back, I could even give you about a month’s worth of my food.”10954aaf3ea63214

When she held f13a4e4f84 out the promised dd5676feba food in front, 476b0f9c2f Jade stared for 97898da284 a while before 9879bcd7a4 opening his mouth 31bd8dc2fe to bite the 97ce14b224 biscuit like before. Between the crunching 9a41bd2082 sounds, there was d546c53dab a short knock, 8223e148e1 and then the ce1a2411fd door opened from c3ef13bcbd outside.

Jade greeted 205851e119 first with a294fb669c the biscuit 9ccf2327b0 in his bfc1559486 mouth. The strange ccb64c14ab atmosphere from 01a0f33741 just moments d84f5468fe ago had 94d6a542be disappeared, and 9c772d89f9 his face d9f9c7020a was lightly 17a70870f8 smiling again.

She decided and 3b291477df went out of b5cb04efac the room with 839718a119 Aslan. As soon as cf85201199 she closed the 1b87443d5a door and saw db4ea7cc34 the living room, 5332ac1eb3 there were two e3c68a8ac9 major changes she fb07899514 noticed, both of a0771fad7c which were incredibly 57f505903b moving.78965be2659822d8

Dylan, who had probably just microwaved a ready-made meal, said in a strangely proud tone. She knew he had gone to bed early yesterday, sulking because he hadn’t been able to contribute much.

Seeing his lips twitch with each compliment, Liella held back her laughter. It’s amazing how human hearts work – even though we haven’t known each other long, having a common enemy has created a sense of team unity.44a8ebb1f62ceb0b
