Autodoll wa Kuchita Sekai de Yume wo Miru

The room wasn’t illuminated.
However, it didn’t feel dark since a numerous​ monitors are emitting the light.

“Onee-chan… won’t shoot.”

With her pure white wings folded, an angelー Michael was sitting alone on the floor while watching the scene displayed on the monitor, murmured that.
Monitor, on which Mika is looking, now was showing the revolver and Lydia, imprisoned in the cage.
Mika has been watching over Lydia since she woke up in the library until today. Therefore she’s confident. Lydia won’t shoot. Definitely.

“That doesn’t matter.”

Before she knew it, Iris, the flower, was waver​ing next to Mika.

“Aki-chan1… once again arrived as fragment only…”

Mika glanced at Iris, before immediately return her gaze to the monitor.

“If it’s not mere fragments, Mika will bear a damage. Facing each other with our body in real form​ with Mika is a little difficult now.”
“I know… You don’t have to say it… every single time.”
“Is that so. Right.”
“Yes. More than that… why is it doesn’t important?”
“Whether Hinagiku’s live shall be over or not, it doesn’t matter to the world. Albeit Hinagiku is supporter, their greatest role – to give Lydia an important realisation. That’s a cue, to be precise.”
“Realisation?”
“Yes.”
“What of?”
“If thee look, thee shall come to understanding right away.”
“Hmm… Mika don’t understand Aki-chan’s… allusion. It looks like… you tormenting onee-chan.”
“Ourself not tormenting Lydia on our own. Ourself merely gaining Lydia’s consent and providing the essential circumstances​.”
“Onee-chan’s consciousness, orienting towards the sea… towards the Woodland?”
“Yes. Lydia calls that:『for some reason.』”
“How long… you will keep it on?”
“All she have to – get through with the last task of transferring the control. Thereupon, ourself would finally conclude our role, and depart. However if Mika accepted it at that day, the day before the world was destroyed, ourself would already departed.”
“Since… Mika, isn’t interested…”
“That’s right. Ourself isn’t condemn thee. Moreover​, Mika is contribute myself.”
“Otherwise, Aki-chan… won’t bring Mika along.”

Mika turned towards Iris and sat down again.

“Mika is doing well.”

Iris’ existence level overly high for them to directly intervene in events that happens in the world​. Since various objects would be erased.
Even if Mika didn’t destroy the world, supposing Iris would merely flew down, the world could be perish​ed.
But Iris didn’t perform that. More correct to say – they are not able.

“Awaking onee-chan… before chibi-nee-chan2… or bringing her to Yuuyami… Watching over her, so she doesn’t die?”
“Yes. Ourself is very helpful. Since for Lydia Yuuyami was necessary. Because these two children are complement each other.3 Well, even so, it was unforeseen that they would fall in love with each other.”

Iris clench its stem, Mika shrug her shoulders.
Alter all, Mika didn’t expect Lydia to love an AD.
Fundamentally human girls falling in love with human boys. Mika was conscious of that information. Accordingly, she thought Lydia would be the same.

“Oh, ourself gave an answer just now.”
“Eh?”
“Well, fine. Look, Lydia has disassembled the revolver.”

Iris uttered, Mika turned to the monitor.
Lydia disassembled the handed revolver and arranged its parts.

“Nonetheless… onee-chan is… unexpected.”
“In case of regular human, they would given into temptation and shoot Hinagiku. If one would weight their own life with the life of an opponent who confined them, they usually give a precedency to themself.”
“In case if onee-chan… stayed the same as Lucy, she would, probably… shoot.”

Lucy never was a scoundrel, however wasn’t a virtuous either.
Only eerily attracted people.

“Well, Lucy didn’t even hesitate to destroy the world. And then, even killed herself and created Lydia.”
“Ah, moreover… she started assembling it.”

Likewise even if revolver will be completed, Lydia wouldn’t put it to use​.
If she intended to use it, she would already did it, ahead of disassembling.
Then, Mika was watching the monitor for a while, Lydia assembled revolver and greatly nodded. After that, put a revolver on the floor and smiled a little.

“Ha. Apparently Lydia not afraid any more.”
“Uh-huh… believing she’ll save herself.”
“Slightly different.”
“How..?”
“Next monitor.”

Mika shifts her gaze to the monitor on her right.
On that monitor, Yuuyami and Rapha had just arrived at Woodland.

“She believes that even if she can’t do anything, Yuuyami will help. From the bottom of her heart.”

Lydia supported Yuuyami when Yuuyami wasn’t able to execute anything.
Therefore, Lydia and Yuuyami complement each other.

“And now, she recalled that. Realised it. A simple validation task. Because the two of these children complement each other. Providing an event that gives a strong impression of it – the role of Hinagiku.”

◇

Hinagiku was idly sitting on the sofa and looking at Lydia.
Lydia observed revolver from various angles and immediately began to disassemble it.
Hinagiku opened her eyes widely to that completely unforeseen conduct.

(It looks like you won’t be murdered. Rather than that, you’re willing to die. Pitiful.)

Moss, which was left on the floor, said so.
Hinagiku picked up the moss and lifted it up to front of her face.

(Apologise?)
“What?”

Hinagiku said in a whisper.

(For confinement her naked. At any rate, why don’t you ordinarily get along? If you do that, your loneliness will disappear, right?)
“Hmm…”

Although Hinagiku pondered about it for a while, ultimately decided not to apologise.

(Are you stupid?)
“Why do you think so?”
(Because, after such a long time you met your daughterー well, she seems to have lost her recollection, however to strip her nude and confining, it doesn’t performing usually, you know?)
“That’s, well, that’s right, but I told you. Also, I wanted to see Lucy’s nakedness. In the past, she didn’t show me, at all…”
(After all, you just want to see naked, right?)
“Well, that’s right. But I haven’t touched her. For now. As yet. Currently.”
(Well, that child is safe while in the gauge. In the sense of chastity.)
“In the worst case, I’m thinking of joining her, how about it?”
(…You’re stupid after all, you know?)

Moss was astonished and abort a conversation.
When Hinagiku looked at Lydia, she was reassembling the disassembled revolver.
Hinagiku was faintly watching Lydia’s work for a while.
When Lydia completed revolver, greatly nodded once.
Then she smiled a little and put revolver on the floor.
Hinagiku, who had been watching Lydia for a long time, met Lydia’s eyes.

“This is a awfully simple weapon,” said Lydia.
“Since it’s old.”

It isn’t on an old-fashioned level but old enough to be called a relic of the times, without a hindrance​.

“Why do you have such an ancient weapon?”
“I like the smell of gunpowder”
“You shot with it?”
“Aah. There was a shooting range dedicated to live-ammunition weapons.”

Before the world was destroyed, Hinagiku continued in her mind.

“Hmm.”

Lydia grabbed revolver and drew near the iron bars.
Hinagiku closed eyes, wondering if she will shoot.

(I have no idea why you want to choose death rather than loneliness of being alone again, however it’s definitely better to apologise and get along with each other, you know?)

Moss uttered, but Hinagiku ignored.
However no matter how long she waited, she couldn’t hear the gunshot or smell the gunpowder.
When Hinagiku opened her eyes, Lydia slid revolver through the gaps between bars.
Revolver hit Hinagiku’s foot and came to a stop​.

“You don’t shoot me?”

Hinagiku pick up the revolver.

“I won’t shoot.”
“Then, will you stay there until the day I’ll die?”
“Mmーmm.”

Lydia shook her head from side to side.

“Nevertheless, I won’t set you free.”
“I remembered.”
“Remembered?”
“Yes. I regained composure while was disassembling a revolver to pieces. With that I remembered.”
“What of?”
“I’m not alone.”

Indeed, Hinagiku nodded.

“Granting that Rapha or Mika come to help, I’ll repel them.”
(Can’t do it. You don’t have to keep her in confinement, it won’t​… You are so childish, you know?)

The moss sighed while said that.
Hinagiku ignored remarks of moss.
Despit that, Hinagiku knew it as well. Rather than Rapha, she can’t beat Mika with just a revolver.

“It’s different, Hinagiku.”

Lydia shook her head once again.

“Different?”
“Yes. I have never met Mika, and Rapha will completely miss her way, it’s a difficult area for her to help me alone.”
“Do you have anyone else?”

Hinagiku can’t think of anyone.
Only three new human beings were created by the Angel Project, likewise no one else was specially close to Lucy before the world’s collapse.
Hinagiku had been watching Lucy all along, so that’s certain.

“I have.”

Lydia was looking straight at Hinagiku.

“Who?”
“My lover.”
“Lov… er…”

Moss slipped down from hands of Hinagiku and rolled on the floor.

(I’m not hurt. Be careful, alright.)

Although moss grumbled, Hinagiku couldn’t hear it.

“How should I put it, since there was a marriage, not a lover, right? Ah, even if I say we’re married, we didn’t make an oath in front of God, it was no more than arbitrarily.”

Lydia scratched her head and said it in a slightly bashful manner.

“You have a lover..?”
“Uh-huh.”
“What kind of, man is…”

The shotgun should have been reproduced, was what Hinagiku thought.
If the daughter brought her boyfriend, it was the duty of parent to hold out the shotgun right away​.

“Not a man, you know?”
“…a female?”

That’s no particular problem. Since Hinagiku likes beautiful girls.
Hinagiku changed her mind, the other party is a beautiful girl, so she don’t need a shotgun.
However, next Lydia’s statement, made Hinagiku consider that she needed something more prepotent than a shotgun.

“Not a human to begin with, you know? Yuuyami is an AD.”

The room wasn’t illuminated.However, it didn’t feel dark since a numerous​ monitors are emitting the light.
